increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of the Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from

would be otherwise disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this
Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.12 shall apply).

Section 2.04.         Funding
of Borrowings.


 


(a)          Funding
by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated
by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly
crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the account(s) designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.


 


(b)          Presumption
by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed
date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing,
the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of
this Section and, in reliance upon such assumption, the Administrative Agent may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation
to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the
applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay
to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including
the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in
the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable
at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount
shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.


 


SECTION 2.05.         Interest
Elections.


 


(a)          Elections
by the Borrower for Borrowings. Subject to Section 2.03(d), the Loans constituting each Borrowing initially shall be of
the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period
specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, subject to Section 2.05(e), the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing
to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Eurocurrency
Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with
respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders
(except as provided under Section 2.11(b)), and the Loans constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.


 




    	53



    	 



    

 


(b)          Notice
of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election
by delivery of a signed Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent or by telephone (followed promptly,
but no later than the close of business on the date of such request, by a signed Interest Election Request in a form approved by
the Administrative Agent) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting
a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic and
written notice of election shall be irrevocable.


 


(c)          Content
of Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written notice of election pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall specify
the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:


 


(i)          the
Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different
portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);


 


(ii)         the
effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;


 


(iii)        whether
the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and


 


(iv)        if
the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall
be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d);
provided that there shall be no more than ten (10) separate Borrowings outstanding at any one time.


 


(d)          Notice
by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative
Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.


 


(e)          Failure
to Elect; Events of Default. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect
to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided
herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing having an Interest Period
of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative
Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, (i) any Eurocurrency Borrowing shall, at the end
of the applicable Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Borrowing, be automatically converted to an ABR Borrowing and (ii) the
Borrower shall not be entitled to elect to convert or continue any Borrowing into or as a Eurocurrency Borrowing.

Section 2.06.         Termination,
Reduction or Increase of the Commitments.


 


(a)          Scheduled
Termination. Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on the Revolver Termination Date
the Commitments shall automatically be reduced to an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans of all Lenders
outstanding on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter to an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding
after giving effect to each payment of principal thereunder; provided that, for clarity, no Lender shall have any obligation
to make new Loans on or after the Revolver Termination Date, and any Loans outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date shall
be due and payable on the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.07.


 


(b)          Voluntary
Termination or Reduction. The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided
that (i) each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall be in an amount that is $5,000,000
or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if,
after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the total Revolving Credit
Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.


 


(c)          Notice
of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date
of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice,
the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may
state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked
by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied.


 


(d)          Effect
of Termination or Reduction. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments
shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.


 


(e)          [Intentionally
Omitted].


 


(f)          Increase
of the Commitments.


 


(i)          Requests
for Increase by Borrower. The Borrower may, at any time prior to the Revolver Termination Date, propose that the Commitments
hereunder be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”) by notice to the Administrative
Agent specifying each existing Lender (each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or each additional lender (each
an “Assuming Lender”) that shall have agreed to an additional Commitment and the date on which such increase
is to be effective (the “Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at least three (3) Business
Days after delivery of such notice and thirty (30) days prior to the Revolver Termination Date; provided that each Lender
may determine in its sole discretion whether or not it chooses to participate in a Commitment Increase; provided, further
that:


 


(A)         the
minimum amount of the Commitment of any Assuming Lender, and the minimum amount of the increase of the Commitment of any Increasing
Lender, as part of such Commitment Increase shall be $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000,


 




    	55



    	 



    

 


(B)         immediately
after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, the sum of (i) the total Commitments of all of the Lenders hereunder and
(ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans as of the Commitment Increase Date shall not exceed the
lesser of (x) 100% of the Obligors’ Net Worth at such time and (y) $400,000,000;


 


(C)         each
Assuming Lender shall be consented to by the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);


 


(D)         no
Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such Commitment Increase Date or shall result from the proposed Commitment Increase;
and


 


(E)         the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material
respects (other than any representation or warranty already qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which shall be
true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Commitment Increase Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such
representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date).


 


(ii)         Effectiveness
of Commitment Increase by Borrower. On the Commitment Increase Date for any Commitment Increase, each Assuming Lender part
of such Commitment Increase, if any, shall become a Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase Date with Commitment in the
amount set forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.06(f)(ii)(y) and the Commitment of any Increasing Lender part of
such Commitment Increase shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date to the amount set forth in the agreement referred
to in Section 2.06(f)(ii)(y); provided that:


 


(x)          the
Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date
(or on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent) a certificate of a duly authorized officer
of the Borrower stating that each of the applicable conditions to such Commitment Increase set forth in the foregoing paragraph
(i) has been satisfied; and


 




    	56



    	 



    

 


(y)          each
Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York
City time on such Commitment Increase Date (or on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent),
an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such Lender shall,
effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, undertake a Commitment or an increase of Commitment, as applicable, duly executed
by such Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender, as applicable, and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent.


 


Promptly following satisfaction
of such conditions, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including any Assuming Lenders) thereof and of the
occurrence of the Commitment Increase Date by facsimile transmission or electronic messaging system.


 


(iii)        Recordation
into Register. Upon its receipt of an agreement referred to in clause (ii)(y) above executed by an Assuming Lender or
any Increasing Lender, together with the certificate referred to in clause (ii)(x) above, the Administrative Agent shall,
if such agreement has been completed, (x) accept such agreement, (y) record the information contained therein in the
Register and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.


 


(iv)         Adjustments
of Borrowings upon Effectiveness of Increase. On each Commitment Increase Date, the Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding
Loans (if any) in full, (B) simultaneously borrow new Loans hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment; provided
that with respect to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the prepayment to, and Borrowing from, any existing Lender shall be
effected by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such
Lender and (y) the existing Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive payments among
themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans are held ratably
by the Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitments of such Lenders (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and
(C) pay to the Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.13 as a result of any such prepayment. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, unless otherwise consented in writing by the Borrower, no Commitment Increase Date shall occur on any day other
than the last day of an Interest Period.

Section 2.07.         Repayment
of Loans; Evidence of Debt.


 


(a)          Repayment.
Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative
Agent for account of the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the Maturity Date.


 


(b)          Manner
of Payment. Prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings
to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than
the time set forth in Section 2.08(f) prior to the scheduled date of such repayment; provided that each repayment of
Borrowings shall be applied to repay any outstanding ABR Borrowings before any other Borrowings. If the Borrower fails to make
a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding
ABR Borrowings and, second, to other Borrowings in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the
Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first). Each payment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably
to the Loans included in such Borrowing (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11(b)).


 


(c)          Maintenance
of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness
of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.


 


(d)          Maintenance
of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record (i) the
amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any
sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.


 


(e)          Effect
of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall
be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein;
provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall
not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the
event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative
Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest
error.


 


(f)          Promissory
Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare,
execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and
its permitted registered assigns) and in a form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced
by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be
represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered
note, to such payee and its permitted registered assigns).


 




    	58



    	 



    

 


Section 2.08.         Prepayment
of Loans.


 


(a)          Optional
Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time (but subject to Section 2.08(e)) to prepay
any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or fee (but subject to Section 2.13), subject to the requirements of this
Section. Each prepayment in part under this Section 2.08(a) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple
of $100,000.


 


(b)          Mandatory
Prepayments due to Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that the amount of total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the total
Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay (but subject to Section 2.08(e)) Loans in such amounts as shall be necessary so that
the amount of total Revolving Credit Exposure does not exceed the total Commitments. In the event that at any time any Borrowing
Base Deficiency shall exist, within 5 Business Days, the Borrower shall (subject to Section 2.08(e)) either prepay (x) the
Loans so that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured or (y) the Loans and the Other Covered Indebtedness in such
amounts as shall be necessary so that such Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured (and, as among the Loans and the Other Covered
Indebtedness, at least ratably (based on the outstanding principal amount of such indebtedness) as to payments of Loans in relation
to Other Covered Indebtedness); provided, that if within such 5 Business Day period, the Borrower shall present to the Administrative
Agent a reasonably feasible plan that will enable any such Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days of the
occurrence of such Borrowing Base Deficiency (which 30-Business Day period shall include the 5 Business Days permitted for delivery
of such plan), then such prepayment or reduction shall be effected in accordance with such plan (subject, for the avoidance of
doubt, to the limitations as to the allocation of such prepayments set forth above in this Section 2.08(b)). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay interest in accordance with Section 2.10(c) for so long as the Covered Debt Amount exceeds
the Borrowing Base during such 30-Business Day Period. For clarity, in the event that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is not cured
prior to the end of such 5 Business Day period (or, if applicable, such 30- Business Day period), it shall constitute an Event
of Default under clause (a) of Article VIII.


 


(c)          Mandatory
Prepayments due to Certain Events Following Availability Period. Subject to 2.08(e) below:


 


(i)          Asset
Sales. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Net Asset Sale Proceeds at any time after the Availability Period, the
Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, prepay the Loans in
an amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount);
provided that with respect to Asset Sales of assets that are not Portfolio Investments, the Borrower shall not be required
to prepay the Loans unless and until (and to the extent that) the aggregate Net Asset Sale Proceeds relating to all such Asset
Sales are greater than $2,000,000.


 




    	59



    	 



    

 


(ii)         Extraordinary
Receipts. In the event (but only to the extent) that the aggregate Net Extraordinary Receipts received by the Obligors at any
time after the Availability Period exceed $2,000,000, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt
of such excess Net Extraordinary Receipts, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess Net Extraordinary Receipts (and the
Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount).


 


(iii)        Return
of Capital. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Net Return of Capital at any time after the Availability Period,
the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Return of Capital, prepay the Loans
in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Return of Capital (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount).


 


(iv)         Equity
Issuances. In the event that the Borrower shall receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance of Equity Interests of the Borrower
(other than up to $2,000,000 of proceeds from issuance(s) of Equity Interests to managers, partners, members, directors, officers,
employees or consultants of the Investment Advisor) at any time after the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than
the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%)
of such Cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions or other similar payments and other costs, fees, premiums
and expenses directly associated therewith, including reasonable legal fees and expenses (and the Commitments shall be permanently
reduced by such amount).


 


(v)          Indebtedness.
In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness (excluding Hedging Agreements permitted
by Section 6.01 and other Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.01(g) and (h)) at any time after the Availability Period,
such Obligor shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount
equal to such Cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions or other similar payments and other costs, fees, commissions,
premiums and expenses directly associated therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses (and the
Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount).


 


(d)          Mandatory
Prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans. If the Loans to be prepaid pursuant to Section 2.08(c) are Eurocurrency Loans, the Borrower
may defer such prepayment (and permanent Commitment reduction) until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loans,
so long as the Borrower deposits an amount equal to an amount required to be prepaid, no later than the third Business Day following
the receipt of such amount, into a segregated collateral account in the name and under the control (within the meaning of
Section 9-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code) of the Administrative Agent pending application of such amount to the prepayment
of the Loans (and permanent reduction of the Commitments) on the last day of such Interest Period.


 




    	60



    	 



    

 


(e)          Mandatory
Prepayments after the Occurrence and During the Continuance of Events of Default. Unless otherwise expressly provided in Section 8
of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or an event of default
under the Term Loan Credit Facility, each mandatory and optional prepayment by the Borrower of the Loans shall, to the extent required
by the Term Loan Credit Facility, be made and applied ratably (based on the outstanding principal amounts of such indebtedness)
to the Loans and the Term Loans, except to the extent the Term Loan Credit Facility permits a greater proportion of such prepayment
to be applied to the Loans.


 


(f)          Notices,
Etc. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing or by telephone (followed promptly by written confirmation) of
any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing under Section 2.08(a), not later than
11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment
of an ABR Borrowing under Section 2.08(a), or any prepayment under Section 2.08(b) or (c), not later than 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify
the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment,
a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided, that, if a notice of prepayment is given in
connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.06, then such notice of
prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.06 and any such notices given
in connection with any of the events specified in Section 2.08(c) may be conditioned upon (x) the consummation of the
Asset Sale or the issuance of Equity Interests or Indebtedness (as applicable) or (y) the receipt of net cash proceeds from
Net Extraordinary Receipts or Net Return of Capital. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably
to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by
Section 2.10 and shall be made in the manner specified in Section 2.07(b).


 


SECTION 2.09.         Fees.


 


(a)          Commitment
Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue
at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender, if any, on each day during the period
from and including the Effective Date to the earlier of the date the Commitments terminate and the Revolver Termination Date. Accrued
commitment fees shall be payable (x) on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, (y) within one Business Day after each Quarterly
Date and (z) on the earlier of the date the Commitments terminate and the Revolver Termination Date, commencing on the first
such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing
commitment fees, the Commitments shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans of all Lenders.


 


(b)          Administrative
Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at
the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.


 




    	61



    	 



    

 


(c)          Payment
of Fees and Expenses. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds,
to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall
not be refundable under any circumstances absent manifest error. Any fees representing the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations
of expenses, to the extent requirements of invoice not otherwise specified in this Agreement, shall be due (subject to the other
terms and conditions contained herein) within ten Business Days of the date that the Borrower receives from the Administrative
Agent a reasonably detailed invoice for such reimbursement obligations.


 


SECTION 2.10.         Interest.


 


(a)          ABR
Loans. The Loans constituting each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus
the Applicable Margin.


 


(b)          Eurocurrency
Loans. The Loans constituting each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO
Rate for the related Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.


 


(c)          Default
Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default described in clause (a), (b), (d) (only with respect
to Section 6.07), (h), (i), (j) or (p) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, or on demand of the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders if any Event of Default described in any other clause of Article VII has occurred and is continuing,
or if the Covered Debt Amount exceeds the Borrowing Base during the 30-Business Day period referred to in Section 2.08(b),
the interest applicable to Loans shall accrue, and any fee or other amount not paid when due by the Borrower hereunder shall bear
interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of principal of any Loan, 2% plus
the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above, or (ii) in the case of any fee or other amount, 2% plus
the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.


 


(d)          Payment
of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan in Dollars
and upon termination in full of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of
this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment
of an ABR Loan prior to the Maturity Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the
date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end
of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.


 


(e)          Computation.
All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of
365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first
day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative
Agent and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.11.         Eurocurrency
Borrowing Provisions.


 


(a)          Alternate
Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing:


 


(i)          the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable
means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or


 


(ii)         the
Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Loans included in such Borrowing
for such Interest Period;


 


then the Administrative Agent shall give notice
thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders in writing or by telephone (promptly confirmed in writing) or telecopy as promptly as practicable
thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such
notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or the continuation
of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to,
an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR
Borrowing. Any such notice shall set forth the basis for any such determination by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders,
as applicable.


 




    	63



    	 



    

 


(b)          Illegality.
Without duplication of any other rights that any Lender has hereunder, if any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful,
or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest
is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, or any Governmental
Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars
in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (i) any
obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Borrowings or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall
be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Eurocurrency Borrowings
the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate
on which ABR Borrowings of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent
without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) all
Eurocurrency Borrowings of such Lender shall automatically convert to ABR Borrowings (the interest rate on which ABR Borrowings
of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the
LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain
such Eurocurrency Borrowings and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest
rates based upon the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base
Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBO Rate component thereof until the Administrative is advised in writing
by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate. Upon
any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.


 


SECTION 2.12.         Increased
Costs.


 


(a)          Increased
Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:


 


(i)          impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, or similar requirement against assets
of, deposits with or for account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted
LIBO Rate); or


 


(ii)         impose
on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than (x) Covered
Taxes and Other Taxes, in each case to the extent covered by Section 2.14, and (y) Excluded Taxes) affecting this
Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;


 


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase
the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Eurocurrency
Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise)
with respect to such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.


 


(b)          Capital
Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have
the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company,
if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s
holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the
policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity position), by an amount deemed to
be material by such Lender, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.


 




    	64



    	 



    

 


(c)          Certificates
from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts, in Dollars, necessary to compensate such Lender
or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section delivered to the
Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 days after receipt thereof.


 


(d)          Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute
a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Obligor shall be required to compensate
a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more
than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower in writing of any such Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions.


 


Section 2.13.         Break
Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of
an Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other
than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency
Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable
under Section 2.08(f) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment as a result of a request by
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17(b) of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor,
then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In
the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined
by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of


 


(i)          the
amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan referred to in clauses (a),
(b), (c) or (d) of this Section 2.13 denominated in Dollars for the period from the date of such payment, conversion,
failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan (or, in the case of a failure
to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or
continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for Dollars for such Interest
Period, over


 


(ii)         the
amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal
amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for deposits denominated
in Dollars from other banks in the Eurocurrency market at the commencement of such period.


 




    	65



    	 



    

 


 








 


Payments under this Section shall be
made upon written request of a Lender delivered to the Borrower not later than 30 Business Days following a payment, conversion,
or failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay that gives rise to a claim under this Section, accompanied by a written certificate
of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due
on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.


 


Section 2.14.         Taxes.


 


(a)          Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document
shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Covered Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required
to deduct any Covered Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making
all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) the Administrative
Agent or Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower
shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law.


 


(b)          Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law.


 


(c)          Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for and, within 10 Business Days after
written demand therefor, pay the full amount of any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes (including Covered Taxes or Other Taxes imposed
or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14(c)) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender,
as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Covered 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 or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on
behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(d)          Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Covered Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority,
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. If the Borrower fails to pay any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental
Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable
by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of such failure.


 




    	66



    	 



    

 


(e)          Lenders.
Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the
Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver
to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested
by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to
be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.


 


In addition, any Lender, if requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not
such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.


 


Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
if the Borrower is resident for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the United States, (A) any Lender that is a “United
States person” as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower 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 request
of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation
or information prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding
or information reporting requirement; and (B) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower 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 or the Administrative
Agent, but, in any event, only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:


 




    	67



    	 



    

 


(i)          duly
completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or any successor form claiming eligibility for benefits of
an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,


 


(ii)         duly
completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or any successor form certifying that the income receivable
pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States,


 


(iii)        in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code,
(A) a certificate, signed under penalties of perjury, to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank”
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described
in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN
(or any successor form) certifying that the Foreign Lender is not a United States Person, or


 


(iv)        any
other form including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, as prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from
or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.


 


In addition, each Lender shall deliver such
forms promptly upon the expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender; provided it is legally
able to do so at the time. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time that it becomes
aware that it no longer satisfies the legal requirements to provide any previously delivered form or certificate to the Borrower
(or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. or other taxing authorities for such purpose).


 


(f)          If
a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement 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 Administrative Agent and the Borrower 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 Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
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 any such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.14(f),
“FATCA” shall include any amendment made to FATCA after the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date.


 




    	68



    	 



    

 


(g)          Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund
or credit of any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Obligor or with respect to which any Obligor
has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund or
credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by any Obligor with respect to the Covered
Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund or credit); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the
relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or any Lender
is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph
(g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph
(g) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net position after-Taxes than
the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to
such refund had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender
to make available its tax returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to
the Borrower or any other Person.


 


Section 2.15.         Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment: Sharing of Set-offs.


 


(a)          Payments
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest,
fees, or under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise
provided therein) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without
set-off, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative
Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such
payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, except as otherwise expressly provided
in the relevant Loan Document and except payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03, which shall be made directly
to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for account of any
other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that
is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment
accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.


 




    	69



    	 



    

 


All amounts owing under this Agreement (including
commitment fees, payments required under Sections 2.12 and 2.13 or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise
provided therein) are payable in Dollars.


 


(b)          Application
of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay
fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest
and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then
due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance
with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.


 


(c)          Pro
Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Borrowing shall be made from the Lenders, each
payment of commitment fee under Section 2.09 shall be made for account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of
the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.06, Section 2.08 or otherwise shall be applied to the respective Commitments
of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) each Borrowing shall be allocated
pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or
their respective Loans that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each
payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with
the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Loans by the Borrower
shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable
to the respective Lenders.


 


(d)          Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans, resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion
of the aggregate amount of its Loans, and accrued interest thereon then due than the proportion received by any other Lender, then
the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other
Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with
the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall
be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of
this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express
terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in
any of its Loans to any assignee, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions
of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower
rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.


 




    	70



    	 



    

 


(e)          Presumptions
of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment
is due to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative
Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders
severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the
Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.


 


(f)          Certain
Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(a) or (b) or 2.15(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for account of such Lender to satisfy such
Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.


 


Section 2.16.         Defaulting
Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the
following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:


 


(a)          commitment
fees pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender to
the extent and during the period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such commitment
fee that otherwise would have accrued and been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender to the extent and during the
period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender);


 


(b)          the
Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, two-thirds
of the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including
any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02, except for any amendment or waiver described in Section 9.02(b)(i),
(ii) or (iii)); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders, two-thirds
of the Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other Lenders or affected Lender,
as applicable, shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.


 


In the event that the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a
Defaulting Lender, then, on the date of such agreement, such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders
as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for the Lenders to hold the Loans in accordance with their
Applicable Percentage.


 




    	71



    	 



    

 


Section 2.17.         Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.


 


(a)          Designation
of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender exercises its rights under Section 2.11(b) or requests compensation under
Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for
account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts
(subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans
hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if in the sole judgment
of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12
or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the circumstance giving rise to such Lender exercising its rights under
Section 2.11(b) and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any cost or expense not required to be reimbursed by the Borrower
and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.


 


(b)          Replacement
of Lenders. If any Lender exercises its rights under Section 2.11(b) or requests compensation under Section 2.12,
or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.14, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender,
then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender
to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all
its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may
be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) such Lender
shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees
and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest
and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting
from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment
will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation
if prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply.


 


(c)          Defaulting
Lenders. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04 or 9.03(c), then
the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to satisfy such
Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold
any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender
under such Sections, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative
Agent in its discretion.

Article III



REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES


 


The Borrower represents and warrants to the
Lenders that:


 


Section 3.01.         Organization;
Powers. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, is duly organized or incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation, has all requisite power and authority to carry
on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction
where the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


Section 3.02.         Authorization;
Enforceability. The Transactions are within the Borrower’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate and, if required, by all necessary stockholder action. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower
and constitutes, and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party when executed and delivered will constitute, a legal,
valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited
by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement
of creditors’ rights and (b) the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability

of Material Events. Upon the Borrower becoming aware of any of the following, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative
Agent and each Lender prompt written notice of the following:


 


(a)          the
occurrence of any Default (provided that if such Default is subsequently cured within the time periods set forth herein,
the failure to provide notice of such Default shall not itself result in an Event of Default hereunder);


 


(b)          the
filing or commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority against or affecting
the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect;


 


(c)          the
occurrence of any ERISA Event that, alone or together with any other ERISA Events that have occurred, could reasonably be expected
to result in liability of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount exceeding $2,500,000; and


 


(d)          any
other development (excluding matters of a general economic, financial or political nature to the extent that they could not reasonably

Material Adverse Effect.


 


Each notice delivered under this Section shall
be accompanied by a statement of a Financial Officer or other executive officer of the Borrower setting forth the details of the
event or development requiring such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto.


 




    	84



    	 



    

 


Section 5.03.         Existence;
Conduct of Business. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, do or cause to be done all things necessary
to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises
material to the conduct of its business; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any transaction permitted under
Section 6.03.


 


Section 5.04.         Payment
of Obligations. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay its obligations, including tax liabilities
and material contractual obligations, that, if not paid, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect before
the same shall become delinquent or in default, except where (a) the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good
faith by appropriate proceedings, (b) the Borrower or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect
thereto in accordance with GAAP and (c) the failure to make payment pending such contest could not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


Section 5.05.         Maintenance
of Properties; Insurance. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (a) keep and maintain all property
material to the conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and (b) maintain,

Section 5.06.         Books
and Records; Inspection and Audit Rights.


 


(a)          Books
and Records; Inspection Rights. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep books of record and account
in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice to the Borrower, to (i) visit and inspect its properties,
to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and (ii) discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers
and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested; provided that the Borrower
or such Subsidiary shall be entitled to have its representatives and advisors present during any inspection of its books and records
or meeting with its independent accountants; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall
not conduct more than two (2) such visits and inspections in any calendar year unless an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing at the time of any subsequent visits and inspections during such calendar year.


 


(b)          Audit
Rights. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by Administrative
Agent (including any consultants, accountants, lawyers and appraisers retained by the Administrative Agent) to conduct evaluations
and appraisals of the Borrower’s computation of the Borrowing Base and the assets included in the Borrowing Base (including,
for clarity, audits of any Agency Accounts, funds transfers and custody procedures), all at such reasonable times and as often
as reasonably requested. The Borrower shall pay the reasonable, documented fees and expenses of representatives retained by the
Administrative Agent to conduct any such evaluation or appraisal; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to pay
such fees and expenses for more than one such evaluation or appraisal during any calendar year unless an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing at the time of any subsequent evaluation or appraisal during such calendar year. The Borrower also agrees to
modify or adjust the computation of the Borrowing Base and/or the assets included in the Borrowing Base, to the extent required
by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders as a result of any such evaluation or appraisal indicating that such computation
or inclusion of assets is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement; provided that if the Borrower demonstrates that
such evaluation or appraisal is incorrect, the Borrower shall be permitted to re-adjust its computation of the Borrowing Base.

Section 5.07.         Compliance
with Laws and Agreements. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations,
including the Investment Company Act (if applicable to such Person), and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it
(including orders issued by the SEC) or its property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments, except where the failure
to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


Section 5.08.         Certain
Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries; Further Assurances.


 


(a)          Subsidiary
Guarantors.


 


(i)          In
the event that (1) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary (other than a Financing
Subsidiary), or that any other Person shall become a “Subsidiary” within the meaning of the definition thereof (other
than a Financing Subsidiary); (2) any Structured Subsidiary shall no longer constitute a “Structured Subsidiary”
pursuant to the definition thereof (in which case such Person shall be deemed to be a “new” Subsidiary for purposes
of this Section 5.08); or (3) any SBIC Subsidiary shall no longer constitute a “SBIC Subsidiary” pursuant
to the definition thereof (in which case such Person shall be deemed to be a “new” Subsidiary for purposes of this
Section 5.08), the Borrower will, in each case, on or before thirty (30) days following such Person becoming a Subsidiary
or such Financing Subsidiary no longer qualifying as such, cause such new Subsidiary or former Financing Subsidiary to become a
“Subsidiary Guarantor” (and, thereby, an “Obligor”) under the Guarantee and Security Agreement pursuant
to a Guarantee Assumption Agreement and to deliver such proof of corporate or other action, incumbency of officers, opinions of
counsel and other documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested.


 


(ii)         The
Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have agreed to exclude each Structured Subsidiary as an Obligor
only for so long as such Person qualifies as a “Structured Subsidiary” pursuant to the definition thereof, and thereafter
such Person shall no longer constitute a “Structured Subsidiary” for any purpose of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document.


 


(iii)        The
Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have agreed to exclude each SBIC Subsidiary as an Obligor only
for so long as such Person qualifies as an “SBIC Subsidiary” pursuant to the definition thereof, and thereafter such
Person shall no longer constitute an “SBIC Subsidiary” for any purpose of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.


 




    	86



    	 



    

 


(b)          Ownership
of Subsidiaries. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall
be necessary to ensure that each of its Subsidiaries is a wholly owned Subsidiary; provided that the foregoing shall not
prohibit any transaction permitted under Sections 6.03 or 6.04, so long as after giving effect to such permitted transaction
each of the remaining Subsidiaries is a wholly owned Subsidiary.


 


(c)          Further
Assurances. The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to, take such action from time to time as shall
reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, to:


 


(i)          take
such action from time to time (including filing appropriate Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and executing and delivering
such assignments, security agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent
to create, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (and any Affiliate thereof that is a party to any Hedging
Agreement entered into with the Borrower), the holders of the Term Loan Indebtedness and the holders of any Secured Longer-Term
Indebtedness, pursuant to the Security Documents, perfected security interests and Liens in the Collateral; provided that
any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents;


 


(ii)         with
respect to each deposit account or securities account of the Obligors (other than (A) any such accounts that are maintained
by the Borrower in its capacity as “servicer” for a Financing Subsidiary or any Agency Account, (B) any such accounts
which hold solely money or financial assets of a Financing Subsidiary, (C) any payroll account so long as such payroll account
is coded as such, (D) withholding tax and fiduciary accounts or any trust account maintained solely on behalf of a Portfolio
Investment, and (E) any account in which the aggregate value of deposits therein, together with all other such accounts under this
clause (E), does not at any time exceed $75,000; provided that in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (A) through
(E), no other Person (other than the depository institution at which such account is maintained) shall have “control”
over such account (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code), cause each bank or securities intermediary (within the meaning
of the Uniform Commercial Code) to enter into such arrangements with the Collateral Agent as shall be appropriate in order
that the Collateral Agent has “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) over each such deposit
account or securities account (each, a “Control Account”) and in that connection, the Borrower agrees, subject
to Sections 5.08(c)(iv) and (v) below, to cause all cash and other proceeds of Portfolio Investments received by
any Obligor to be immediately deposited into a Control Account (or otherwise delivered to, or registered in the name of, the Collateral
Agent) and, both prior to and following such deposit, delivery or registration such cash and other proceeds shall be held
in trust by the Borrower for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of
such Obligor or any other Person (including with any money or financial assets of the Borrower in its capacity as “servicer”
for a Structured Subsidiary, or any money or financial assets of a Structured Subsidiary, or any money or financial assets of the
Borrower in its capacity as an agent or administrative agent for any other Bank Loans (as defined in Section 5.13) subject
to Section 5.08(c)(v) below);


 




    	87



    	 



    

 


(iii)        cause
the Financing Subsidiaries to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such certificates and agreements, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as it shall determine are necessary to confirm that such Financing Subsidiary
qualifies or continues to qualify as a “Structured Subsidiary” or an “SBIC Subsidiary”, as applicable,
pursuant to the definitions thereof;


 


(iv)        in
the case of any Portfolio Investment consisting of a Bank Loan that does not constitute all of the credit extended to the underlying
borrower under the relevant underlying loan documents and a Financing Subsidiary holds any interest in the loans or other extensions
of credit under such loan documents, (x)(1) cause the interest owned by such Financing Subsidiary to be evidenced by a separate
note or notes which note or notes are either (A) in the name of such Financing Subsidiary or (B) in the name of the Borrower,
endorsed in blank and delivered to the applicable Financing Subsidiary and beneficially owned by the Financing Subsidiary and (2) not
permit such Financing Subsidiary to have a participation acquired from an Obligor in such underlying loan documents and the extensions
of credit thereunder or any other indirect interest therein acquired from an Obligor; and (y) ensure that, subject
to Section 5.08(c)(v) below, all amounts owing to any Obligor by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are
remitted by such borrower or obligated party (or the applicable administrative agents, collateral agents or equivalent Person)
directly to the Custodian Account and no other amounts owing by such underlying borrower or obligated party are remitted to the
Custodian Account;


 


(v)         in
the event that any Obligor is acting as an agent or administrative agent under any loan documents with respect to any Bank Loan
(or is acting in an analogous agency capacity under any note purchase agreements with respect to any Mezzanine Investment) and
such Obligor does not hold all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower or issuer under the relevant underlying loan documents
or note purchase agreements, ensure that (1) all funds held by such Obligor in such capacity as agent or administrative agent
is segregated from all other funds of such Obligor and clearly identified as being held in an agency capacity (an “Agency
Account”); (2) all amounts owing on account of such Bank Loan or Mezzanine Investment by the underlying borrower or
other obligated party are remitted by such borrower or obligated party to either (A) such Agency Account or (B) directly
to an account in the name of the underlying lender to whom such amounts are owed (for the avoidance of doubt, no funds representing
amounts owing to more than one underlying lender may be remitted to any commingled account other than the Agency Account); and
within one (1) Business Day after receipt of such funds, such Obligor acting in its capacity as agent or administrative agent
shall distribute any such funds belonging to any Obligor to the Custodian Account (provided that if any distribution referred
to in this clause (c) is not permitted by applicable bankruptcy law to be made as a result of the bankruptcy of the underlying
borrower, such Obligor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain permission to make such distribution and shall make
such distribution as soon as legally permitted to do so);


 




    	88



    	 



    

  


(vi)        except
as otherwise set forth in clause Section 5.08(c)(iv) above, cause all Portfolio Investments held by an Obligor that are
Bank Loans to be evidenced by promissory notes in the name of such Obligor, cause such Obligor to be party to the underlying loan
documents as a “lender” having a direct interest (or a participation not acquired from an Affiliate) in such underlying
loan documents and the extensions of credit thereunder, and cause all such underlying loan and other documents relating to any
such Portfolio Investment (including, without limitation, such promissory notes that are owned by an Obligor) to be held by (x) the
Collateral Agent or (y) the Custodian pursuant to the terms of a Custodian Agreement and, unless delivered to the Collateral
Agent, such Bank Loan shall be credited to the Custodian Account; provided that Borrower’s obligation to deliver underlying
documentation (other than promissory notes, which must be delivered in the original) may be satisfied by delivery of copies of
such underlying documentation; and


 


(vii)       in
the case of any Portfolio Investment held by any Financing Subsidiary, including any cash collection related thereto, ensure that
such Portfolio Investment shall not be held in any Custodian Account, or any other account of any Obligor.


 


Section 5.09.         Use
of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans only for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
(other than the Financing Subsidiaries, except to the extent permitted by Section 6.03(f)) in the ordinary course of business,
including making distributions not prohibited by this Agreement and the acquisition and funding (either directly or through one
or more wholly-owned Subsidiary Guarantors) of leveraged loans, mezzanine loans, high-yield securities, convertible securities,
preferred stock, common stock and other Portfolio Investments; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender
shall have any responsibility as to the use of any of such proceeds. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used in violation
of applicable law or, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying
any Margin Stock. On the first day (if any) an Obligor acquires any Margin Stock or at any other time requested by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect
in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U. Margin Stock shall
be purchased by the Obligors only with the proceeds of Indebtedness not directly or indirectly secured by Margin Stock (within
the meaning of Regulation U), or with the proceeds of equity capital of the Borrower.


 


Section 5.10.         Status
of RIC and BDC. The Borrower shall at all times maintain its status
as a RIC under the Code and as a “business development company” under the Investment Company Act.


 


Section 5.11.         Investment
Policies. The Borrower shall at all times be in compliance in all material respects with its Investment Policies.


 




    	89



    	 



    

 


Section 5.12.         Portfolio
Valuation and Diversification Etc.; Risk Factor Ratings;


 


(a)          Industry
Classification Groups. For purposes of this Agreement, the Borrower shall assign each Eligible Portfolio Investment to an Industry
Classification Group as reasonably determined by the Borrower. To the extent that the Borrower reasonably determines that any Eligible
Portfolio Investment is not adequately correlated with the risks of other Eligible Portfolio Investments in an Industry Classification
Group, such Eligible Portfolio Investment may be assigned by the Borrower to an Industry Classification Group that is more closely
correlated to such Eligible Portfolio Investment. In the absence of any such correlation, the Borrower shall be permitted, upon
notice to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender, to create up to three (3) additional industry classification
groups for purposes of this Agreement.


 


(b)          Portfolio
Valuation Etc.


 


(i)          Settlement
Date Basis. For purposes of this Agreement, all determinations of whether a Portfolio Investment is an Eligible Portfolio Investment
shall be determined on a settlement-date basis (meaning that any Portfolio Investment that has been purchased will not be treated
as an Eligible Portfolio Investment until such purchase has settled, and any Eligible Portfolio Investment which has been sold
will not be excluded as an Eligible Portfolio Investment until such sale has settled); provided that no such investment
shall be included as an Eligible Portfolio Investment to the extent it has not been paid for in full.


 


(ii)         Determination
of Values. For purposes of the Loan Documents, the Eligible Portfolio Investments shall be valued as follows:


 


(A)         Quoted
Investments External Review. With respect to Eligible Portfolio Investments (including Cash Equivalents) for which market
quotations are readily available (“Quoted Investments”), the Borrower shall, not less frequently than once each
calendar week, determine the market value of such Quoted Investments which shall, in each case, be determined in accordance with
one of the following methodologies as selected by the Borrower (each such value, an “External Quoted Value”):


 


(w)          in
the case of public and 144A securities, the average of the bid prices as determined by two Approved Dealers selected by the Borrower,


 


(x)          in
the case of Bank Loans, the average of the bid prices as determined by two Approved Dealers selected by the Borrower,


 




    	90



    	 



    

 


(y)          in
the case of any Quoted Investment traded on an exchange, the closing price for such Eligible Portfolio Investment most recently
posted on such exchange, and


 


(z)          in
the case of any other Quoted Investment, the fair market value thereof as determined by an Approved Pricing Service; and


 


(B)         Unquoted
Investments External Review. With respect to Eligible Portfolio Investments for which market quotations are not readily available
(“Unquoted Investments”):


 


(x)          
Commencing on August 31, 2013, and for each November 30th, February 28th, May 31st and August
31st thereafter (or such other dates as are reasonably agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (provided
that such testing dates shall occur not less than quarterly), each a “Valuation Testing Date”), the Administrative
Agent through an Independent Valuation Provider will test the values as of such Valuation Testing Date of those Unquoted Investments
that are Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base selected by the Administrative Agent (such selected assets, the “IVP
Tested Assets” and such value, the “IVP External Unquoted Value”); provided that the fair value
of such Portfolio Investments tested by the Independent Valuation Provider as of any Valuation Testing Date shall be approximately
25% (but in no event shall exceed 30%) of the aggregate value of the Unquoted Investments in the Borrowing Base (the determination
of fair value for such 25% threshold shall be based off of the last determination of value of the Portfolio Investments pursuant
to this Section 5.12 and, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of any Unquoted Investments acquired during the calendar quarter,
the value shall be as determined pursuant to clause (E)(z)(2) below); provided, further that the Administrative Agent shall
provide written notice to the Borrower, setting forth a description of which Unquoted Investments shall be IVP Tested Assets as
of such Valuation Testing Date, not later than August 15, 2013, and on each November 15th, February 15th,
May 15th and August 15th thereafter (or such other dates as are reasonably agreed by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent), as applicable. Each such valuation report shall also include the information required to comply with clause
(iii) of paragraph 8 and paragraph 23 of Schedule 1.01(d) for an IVP Tested Asset (to the extent such provisions are
applicable.)


 




    	91



    	 



    

 


(y)          With
respect to all Unquoted Investments that are not IVP Tested Assets as of such Valuation Testing Date (the “Borrower Tested
Assets”), the Borrower shall request an Approved Third-Party Appraiser to assist the Board of Directors of the Borrower
in determining the fair market value of such Unquoted Investments, as of each Valuation Testing Date (such value, the “Borrower
External Unquoted Value”), and to provide the Board of Directors with a written valuation report as part of that assistance
each quarter. Each such valuation report shall also include the information required to comply with clause (iii) of paragraph
8 and paragraph 23 of Schedule 1.01(d).


 


(C)         Internal
Review. The Borrower shall conduct internal reviews to determine the value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments at least once
each calendar week which shall take into account any events of which the Borrower has knowledge that adversely affect the value
of any Eligible Portfolio Investment (each such value, an “Internal Value”).


 




    	92



    	 



    

 


(D)         Value
of Quoted Investments. Subject to clauses (G) and (H) of this Section 5.12(b)(ii), the “Value” of each Quoted
Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be the lowest of (i) the Internal Value of such Quoted Investment as most
recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), (ii) the External Quoted Value of such Quoted
Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(A), and (iii) the par or face value of such Quoted
Investment.


 


(E)         Value
of Unquoted Investments. Subject to clauses (G) and (H) of this Section 5.12(b)(ii),


 


(x)          if
the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C)
falls below the range of the External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B),
then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of
(i) the Internal Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment;


 


(y)          (i)
if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C)
falls above the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall
be deemed to be the lower of (i) the midpoint of the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value and (ii) the par or
face value of such Unquoted Investment;


 




    	93



    	 



    

 


(ii)         if
the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C)
falls more than 5% above the midpoint of the range of the IVP External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently
determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of
this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the midpoint of the range of the IVP External Unquoted Value and (ii) the
par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; and


 


(z)          if
the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C)
is within the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value, or within or not more than 5% above the midpoint of the range of the
IVP External Unquoted Value, of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then
the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the
Internal Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment;


 


except that:


 


(1)         if
the difference between the highest and lowest Borrower External Unquoted Value in such range exceeds an amount equal to 6% of the
midpoint of such range, the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment shall instead be deemed to be the lowest of (i) the
lowest Borrower External Unquoted Value in such range, (ii) the Internal Value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C),
and (iii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; and


 




    	94



    	 



    

 


(2)         if
an Unquoted Investment is acquired during a fiscal quarter, the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment shall be deemed
to be equal to the lowest of (x) the Internal Value of such Unquoted Investment as determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), (y) the cost of such Unquoted Investment until such time as the External Unquoted Value of such
Unquoted Investment is determined in accordance with Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B) as at the Valuation Testing Date, and (z) the
par or face value of such Unquoted Investment.


 


(F)         Actions
Upon a Borrowing Base Deficiency. If, based upon such weekly internal review, the Borrower determines that a Borrowing Base
Deficiency exists, then the Borrower shall, promptly and in any event within two Business Days as provided in Section 5.01(e),
deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting the new amount of the Borrowing Base and shall take the actions, and make the payments
and prepayments (if any), all as more specifically set forth in Section 2.08(b).


 


(G)         Failure
to Determine Values. If the Borrower shall fail to determine the value of any Eligible Portfolio Investment as at any date
pursuant to the requirements (but subject to the exclusions) of the foregoing sub-clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) or (E), then

assigned by the Administrative Agent) and/or exclude any Eligible Portfolio Investment from the Borrowing Base entirely, so long
as the aggregate reduction in the Borrowing Base resulting from all such revisions and exclusions in any fiscal quarter made pursuant

(iii)        Supplemental
Testing of Values; Valuation Dispute Resolutions


 


(A)         Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, individually or at the request of the Required Lenders, shall at any time have the right
to request any Portfolio Investment (other than IVP Tested Assets) included in the Borrowing Base with a value determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii) to be independently tested by an Independent Valuation Provider. Subject to Section 5.12(b)(iv)(C)
below, there shall be no limit on the number of such appraisals requested by the Administrative Agent and the costs of any such
valuation shall be at the expense of the Borrower. If (x) the value of any Borrower Tested Asset determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is
less than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause, then the value determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement and (y) if
the value of any Borrower Tested Asset determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is greater than the value determined
by the Independent Valuation Provider and the difference between such values is (1) less than or equal to 5% of the value
determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall become
the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment, (2) greater than 5% and less than or equal to 20% of the value determined
pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment shall become the average of the
value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) and the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider, and
(3) greater than 20% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall retain an additional third-party appraiser and, upon the completion of such appraisal, the “Value” of such
Portfolio Investment shall become the average of the three valuations (with the average of the value of the Independent Valuation
Provider and value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) to be used until the third value is obtained).


 


(B)         For
purposes of this Section 5.12(b)(iii), the Value of any Portfolio Investment for which the Independent Valuation Provider’s
value is used shall be the midpoint of the range (if any) determined by the Independent Valuation Provider.


 


(iv)        Generally
Applicable Valuation Provisions


 


(A)         The
Independent Valuation Provider shall apply a recognized valuation methodology that is commonly accepted in the Borrower’s
industry for valuing Portfolio Investments of the type being valued and held by the Obligors. Other procedures relating to the
valuation will be reasonably agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.


 




    	96



    	 



    

 


(B)         All
valuations shall be on a settlement date basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the value of any Portfolio Investments determined in
accordance with any provision of this Section 5.12 shall be the Value of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement
until a new Value for such Portfolio Investment is subsequently determined in good faith in accordance with this Section 5.12.


 


(C)         Subject
to the last sentence of Section 9.03(a), the documented out-of-pocket costs of any valuation reasonably incurred by the Administrative
Agent under this Section 5.12 shall be at the expense of the Borrower; provided that the Administrative Agent shall
under no circumstances be required to incur expenses under Section 5.12(b)(iii) in excess of the IVP Supplemental Cap.


 


(D)         In
addition, the values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider shall be deemed to be “Information” hereunder
and subject to Section 9.13 hereof.


 


(E)         The
Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of the final results of any valuation performed by the Independent Valuation Provider
to any Lender promptly upon such Lender’s request.


 


(F)         The
foregoing valuation procedures shall only be required to be used for purposes of calculating the Collateral Base and shall not
be required to be utilized by the Borrower for any other purpose, including, without limitation, the delivery of financial statements
or valuations required under ASC820 or the Investment Company Act.


 


(G)         The
Independent Valuation Provider shall be instructed to conduct its tests in a manner not disruptive to the business of the Borrower.
The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of its receipt of the final results of any such test promptly upon its receipt
thereof and shall provide a copy of such results and the related report to the Borrower promptly upon the Borrower’s request.


 


(c)          Investment
Company Diversification Requirements. The Borrower (together with its Subsidiaries to the extent
required by the Investment Company Act) will at all times comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set
forth in the Investment Company Act applicable to business development companies. The Borrower will at all times, subject to applicable
grace periods set forth in the Code, comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Code applicable
to RICs.

Article VIII



THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT


 


Section 8.01.         Appointment
of the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such
powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto.


 


Section 8.02.         Capacity
as Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a
Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates
may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.


 




    	120



    	 



    

 


Section 8.03.         Limitation
of Duties; Exculpation. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein
and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not
be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise
in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative
Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of
its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the
consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative
Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative
Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and 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 Loan
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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV
or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative
Agent.


 


Section 8.04.         Reliance.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet
website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.
The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the
proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel,
independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance
with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 


Section 8.05.         Sub-Agents.
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents
appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and
exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs
shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply
to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities
as Administrative Agent.


 




    	121



    	 



    

 


Section 8.06.         Resignation;
Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon
any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld
(provided that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor.
If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
shall nonetheless become effective and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder and (2) the Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications
provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until such
time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of its appointment
as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees
payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise
agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of
this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.


 


Section 8.07.         Reliance
by Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue
to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.


 


Section 8.08.         Modifications
to Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(b) or 9.02(c) with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative
Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver
under any of the Loan Documents; provided that, without the prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall
not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or otherwise
terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any Security Document providing for collateral security, agree to additional
obligations being secured by all or substantially all of such collateral security, or alter the relative priorities of the obligations
entitled to the benefits of the Liens created under the Security Documents with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral,
except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering
property that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders
have consented.

and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have
been given on the date of receipt. Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below,

(b)          Electronic

that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.04 if such Lender has notified the Administrative
Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or

    	124



    	 



    

 


Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise
prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s
receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available,
return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during
the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business
on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall
be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause
(i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

Lenders under Sections 5.01 and 5.12(a) by delivering one hard copy thereof to the Administrative Agent and either an
electronic copy or a notice identifying the website where such information is located for posting by the Administrative Agent on
DebtdomainTM or such equivalent website; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to maintain
access to DebtdomainTM or an equivalent website.


 


Section 9.02.         Waivers;
Amendments.


 


(a)          No
Deemed Waivers Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or
power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment
or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are
not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent
to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of
this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless
of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.


 




    	125



    	 



    







 


(b)          Amendments
to this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an
agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, subject to Section 2.16(b), no such agreement shall


 


(i)          increase
the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,


 


(ii)         reduce
the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written
consent of each Lender affected thereby,


 


(iii)        postpone
the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable to a Lender hereunder,
or reduce the amount or waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without
the written consent of each Lender affected thereby,


 


(iv)        change
Section 2.15(b), (c) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments, or making of disbursements,
required thereby without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby,

any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any

(vi)        permit
the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the consent of each
Lender;


 


provided further that (x) no such agreement shall
amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent, and (y) the consent of Lenders holding not less than two-thirds of the total Revolving Credit
Exposures and unused Commitments will be required for (A) any change adverse to the Lenders affecting the provisions of this
Agreement relating to the Borrowing Base (including the definitions used therein), or the provisions of Section 5.12(b)(ii),
and (B) any release of any material portion of the Collateral other than for fair value or as otherwise permitted hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents (subject to Section 9.02(c)(ii)).


 




    	126



    	 



    

 


(c)          Amendments
to Security Documents.  No Security Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified, except to the
extent otherwise expressly contemplated by the Guaranty and Security Agreement, and the Liens granted under the Guaranty and Security
Agreement may not be spread to secure any additional obligations (including any increase in Loans hereunder and in Term Loans under
the Term Loan Credit Facility, but excluding any such increase pursuant to (x) a Commitment Increase under Section 2.06(f)
and/or (y) a commitment increase permitted under the Term Loan Credit Facility to an amount such that immediately after giving
effect to such increase(s), the sum of (i) the total Commitments of all of the Lenders hereunder and (ii) the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans as of the date of such increase is not greater than the lesser of (x) 100%
of the Obligors’ Net Worth at such date and (y) $400,000,000) except to the extent otherwise
expressly contemplated by the Guaranty and Security Agreement or except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing
entered into by the Borrower, and by the Collateral Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, subject
to Section 2.16(b), (i) without the written consent of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the total Revolving
Credit Exposures and unused Commitments, no waiver, amendment or modification to the Guaranty and Security Agreement shall (A) release
any Obligor representing more than 10% of the Stockholder’s Equity of the Borrower from its obligations under the Security
Documents, (B) release any guarantor representing more than 10% of the Stockholder’s Equity of the Borrower under the
Guarantee and Security Agreement from its guarantee obligations thereunder, or (C) amend the definition of “Collateral”
under the Security Documents (except to add additional collateral) and (ii) without the written consent of each Lender, no
such agreement shall (W) release all or substantially all of the Obligors from their respective obligations under the Security
Documents, (X) release all or substantially all of the collateral security or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the
Liens under the Security Documents, (Y) release all or substantially all of the guarantors under the Guarantee and Security Agreement
from their guarantee obligations thereunder, or (Z) alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the Liens created
under the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional obligations equally and ratably with the Loans and
other obligations hereunder) with respect to the collateral security provided thereby; except that no such consent described
in clause (i) or (ii) above shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (and so agrees with
the Borrower) to direct the Collateral Agent under the Guarantee and Security Agreement, to release any Lien covering property
(and to release any such guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition
to which the Required Lenders have consented, or otherwise in accordance with Section 9.15.


 


(d)          Replacement
of Non-Consenting Lender. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring (i) the consent of
“each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” or (ii) the consent of “two-thirds of the holders
of the total Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments”, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the
consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred
to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense,
to replace each such Non-Consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.17(b) so
long as at the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination.

Section 9.03.         Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver.


 


(a)          Costs
and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable documented and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of up
to one counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent collectively (other than the allocated costs of internal counsel),
in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration (other than
internal overhead charges) of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions
hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) including, subject to the
last sentence of this clause (a), all costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Provider, (ii) all reasonable documented
and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges
and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of
its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection
with the Loans made, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect
thereof and (iii) and all reasonable documented and out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred
in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Security Document
or any other document referred to therein. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall not be
responsible for the reimbursement of any fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Provider incurred pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(iii) in
excess of $50,000 in the aggregate incurred for all such fees, costs and expenses in any 12-month period (the “IVP Supplemental
Cap”).


 


(b)          Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the
foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless
from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (other than Taxes or Other Taxes which shall only be
indemnified by the Borrower to the extent provided in Section 2.14), including the reasonable and documented fees, charges
and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (other than the allocated costs of internal counsel), incurred by or asserted
against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement
or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder
or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, any arrangement
entered into with an Independent Valuation Provider), (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom or (iii) any
actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract,
tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall
not as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of such Indemnitee.


 


The Borrower shall not be liable to any Indemnitee
for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the Transactions
asserted by an Indemnitee against the Borrower or any other Obligor; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not be
deemed to impair or affect the Obligations of the Borrower under the preceding provisions of this subsection.


 




    	128



    	 



    

 


(c)          Reimbursement
by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without limiting its obligation to do so) or to the extent that the fees,
costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Provider incurred pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(iii) exceed the IVP Supplemental
Cap for any 12-month period (provided that prior to incurring expenses in excess of the IVP Supplemental Cap, the Administrative
Agent shall have afforded the Lenders an opportunity to consult with the Administrative Agent regarding such expenses), each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined
as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided
that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred
by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.


 


(d)          Waiver
of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives,
any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed
to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of; this Agreement or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.


 


(e)          Payments.
All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.


 


Section 9.04.         Successors
and Assigns.


 


(a)          Assignments
Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer
by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Lender
which is not in accordance with this Section shall be treated as provided in the last sentence of Section 9.04(b)(iii)).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.


 


(b)          Assignments
by Lenders.


 


(i)          Assignments
Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all
or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at
the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of:


 




    	129



    	 



    

 


(A)         the
Borrower; provided that (i) no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate
of a Lender, or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, and (ii) the Borrower shall be
deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within
five (5) Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and


 


(B)         the
Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment by a Lender
to an Affiliate of a Lender with prior written notice by such Lender to the Administrative Agent.


 


(ii)         Certain
Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:


 


(A)         except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that
no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;


 


(B)         each
partial assignment of Commitments or Loans shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Commitments and Loans;


 


(C)         the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption in substantially
the form of Exhibit A hereto, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee shall not be payable
in connection with an assignment to a Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender), for which the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not
be obligated (except in the case of an assignment pursuant to Section 2.17(b)); and


 


(D)         the
assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.


 




    	130



    	 



    

 


(iii)        Effectiveness
of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and
the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from
its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to
the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective
date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply
with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such
rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section.


 


(c)          Maintenance
of Registers by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower,
shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount and “stated interest”
for tax purposes of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Registers”
and each individually, a “Register”). The entries in the Registers 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 Registers pursuant
to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Registers shall be available for inspection by
the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.


 


(d)          Acceptance
of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to
such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption
and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless
it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.


 


(e)          Special
Purposes Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”)
may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) owned or administered by such Granting Lender, identified
as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide
all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make; provided that (i) nothing
herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise
fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, make such Loan
pursuant to the terms hereof, (iii) the rights of any such SPC shall be derivative of the rights of the Granting Lender, and
such SPC shall be subject to all of the restrictions upon the Granting Lender herein contained, and (iv) no SPC shall be entitled
to the benefits of Sections 2.12 (or any other increased costs protection provision), 2.13 or 2.14. Each SPC shall be conclusively
presumed to have made arrangements with its Granting Lender for the exercise of voting and other rights hereunder in a manner which
is acceptable to the SPC, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, and each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
and the Obligors shall be entitled to rely upon and deal solely with the Granting Lender with respect to Loans made by or through
its SPC. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as
if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender.


 




    	131



    	 



    

 


Each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement
shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in
full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting
against, such SPC, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under
the laws of the United States or any State thereof, in respect of claims arising out of this Agreement; provided that the
Granting Lender for each SPC hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage
and expense arising out of their inability to institute any such proceeding against its SPC. In addition, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPC may (i) without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender
or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans
made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans (but nothing contained herein
shall be construed in derogation of the obligation of the Granting Lender to make Loans hereunder); provided that neither
the consent of the SPC or of any such assignee shall be required for amendments or waivers hereunder except for those amendments
or waivers for which the consent of participants is required under paragraph (1) below, and (ii) disclose on a confidential
basis (in the same manner described in Section 9.13(b)) any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating
agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.


 




    	132



    	 



    

 


(f)          Participations.
Any Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a
portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion
of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement
or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification
or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (g) of
this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.
To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were
a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15(d) as though it were a Lender hereunder.


 


(g)          Limitations
on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.13
than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would
be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrower is notified
of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.14(e)
as though it were a Lender.


 


(h)          Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank,
and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge
or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto.


 


(i)          No
Assignments or Participations to the Borrower or Affiliates or Certain Other Persons. Anything in this Section to the
contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may (i) assign or participate any interest in any Commitment or Loan held by it hereunder
to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender, or (ii) assign any interest
in any Commitment or Loan held by it hereunder to a natural person or to any Person known by such Lender at the time of such assignment
to be a Defaulting Lender, a Subsidiary of a Defaulting Lender or a Person who, upon consummation of such assignment would be a
Defaulting Lender.


 




    	133



    	 



    

 


Section 9.05.         Survival.
All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto
and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made
by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue
in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of
Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments
or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


 


Section 9.06.         Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.


 


(a)          Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts),
each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement
and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract between
and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral
or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when provided
in Section 4.01, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopy or electronic
mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.


 


(b)          Electronic
Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic
form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of
a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act,
or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.


 


Section 9.07.         Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate
such provision in any other jurisdiction.


 




    	134



    	 



    

 


Section 9.08.         Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized
at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or
Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the any Obligor against any of and all the obligations of any Obligor now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under
this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees promptly to
notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application


 


Section 9.09.         Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.


 


(a)          Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.


 


(b)          Submission
to Jurisdiction. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District
Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined
in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a
final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment
or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender
may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts
of any jurisdiction.


 


(c)          Waiver
of Venue. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively
do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action
or proceeding in any such court.


 


(d)          Service
of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01.
Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law.


 


Section 9.10.         WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT
OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER
INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.


 




    	135



    	 



    

 


Section 9.11.         Judgment
Currency. This is a loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars and payment in New York City is of the essence,
and Dollars shall be the currency of account in all events relating to Loans. The payment obligations of the Borrower under this
Agreement shall not be discharged or satisfied by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a
judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to Dollars and transfer to New York City under
normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of Dollars in New York City due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining
judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into another currency (the “Other Currency”),
the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative
Agent could purchase Dollars with the Other Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered.
The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under
any other Loan Document (in this Section called an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate
of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt
by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the Other Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with
normal banking procedures purchase and transfer Dollars to New York City with the amount of the Other Currency so adjudged
to be due; and the Borrower hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled
Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in Dollars, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due
to such Entitled Person in Dollars hereunder exceeds the amount of Dollars so purchased and transferred.


 


Section 9.12.         Headings.
Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part
of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.


 


Section 9.13.         Treatment
of Certain Information; Confidentiality.


 


(a)          Treatment
of Certain Information. The Borrower acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services
may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by
any Lender or by one or more subsidiaries or affiliates of such Lender and the Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to share
any information delivered to such Lender by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with
the decision of such Lender to enter into this Agreement, to any such subsidiary or affiliate, it being understood that any such
subsidiary or affiliate receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section as
if it were a Lender hereunder. Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans, and the Commitments or the termination
of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


 




    	136



    	 



    

 


(b)          Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as the Collateral Agent) and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality
of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’
respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including
any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar
legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under
any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of
rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative
transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) to any lender under the Term Loan Credit Facility and the administrative
agent and collateral agent for such lenders (subject, in each case, to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same
as those of this Section (which may include the Term Loan Credit Facility if it contains confidentiality provisions substantially
the same as those of this Section)), (h) with the consent of the Borrower, (i) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating
agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Loans, (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar
agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, (j) to the extent such Information
(x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the
Borrower, or (k) in connection with the Lenders’ right to grant security interest pursuant to Section 9.04(h) to the
Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, or subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those
of this Section, to any other pledgee or assignee pursuant to Section 9.04(h).


 


For purposes of this Section, “Information”
means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of
information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified
at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this
Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of
care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.


 




    	137



    	 



    

 


Section 9.14.         USA
PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III
of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies
the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender
to identify the Borrower in accordance with said Act.


 


Section 9.15.         Termination.
Promptly upon the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent shall direct the Collateral Agent to, on behalf of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, deliver to Borrower such termination statements and releases and other documents necessary
or appropriate to evidence the termination of this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and each of the documents securing the obligations
hereunder as the Borrower may reasonably request, all at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

or any entities advised by any of the foregoing, has been increased amended, modified or otherwise restructured after the Effective
Date, except for any follow-on Investment made after the Effective Date in the same Portfolio Company that has been made (i) for
the purpose of facilitating the growth of such Portfolio Company and not to avert a default under any existing investment, (ii) on
substantially similar terms as the existing investment of the same investor, (iii) in compliance with BDC regulations, and
(iv) in a manner that would not be adverse to any existing Eligible Portfolio Investment in such Portfolio Company; and



 


		23)	if such Portfolio Investment is a Bank Loan and the Portfolio Company of such Portfolio Investment has issued a Permitted Prior
Working Capital Lien, the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a written valuation report of an Approved Third-Party
Appraiser determining the enterprise value of such Portfolio Company to be used for purposes of the conditions outlined in clause
