which the Collateral Agent has a first-priority perfected security interest pursuant to a valid Uniform Commercial Code filing (and for which no other method of perfection with a higher priority is possible), such Portfolio Investment may be
included in the Borrowing Base so long as all remaining actions to complete “Delivery” are satisfied in full within 7 days of such inclusion.

 “Combined Debt Amount” means, as of any date, (i) the
aggregate amount of the Dollar Commitments and the Multicurrency Commitments as of such date (or, if greater, the Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders as of such date) plus (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of Term Loans as of such
date plus (iii) the aggregate amount of outstanding Designated Indebtedness.

consolidated net income of the applicable Person (excluding extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains and extraordinary losses (to the extent excluded in the definition of “EBITDA” (or similar defined term used for the purposes

such Borrowing Base Deficiency is due to a failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 5.13(a)(vi) as a consequence of a change in either (x) the ratio of the Gross Borrowing Base to the Senior Debt Amount or (y) the Relevant Asset
Coverage Ratio from one quarterly period to the next, such 30-Business Day period shall be extended to a 45-Business Day period solely with respect to compliance with Section 5.13(a)(vi).”

the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent any such representation or warranty is itself qualified by materiality or reference to a Material Adverse
Effect, in which case it is true and correct in all respects, subject to such qualification) on and as of the date of this Amendment No. 3 and on the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below).

Debt Amount and (2) the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is less than 1.75:1.00, then the Borrowing Base shall be reduced to the extent necessary such that the contribution of Senior Investments to the Borrowing Base may not be less than 60% of

(other than Cash and Cash Equivalents) attributable to Venture Loans exceeding 20% of the aggregate Value of all Portfolio Investments in the Collateral Pool, shall be 0%; 

(viii) the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the aggregate Value of the Portfolio Investments (other than Common
Equity) in which the Borrower has a controlling influence as determined under the Investment Company Act that exceeds 5% of Shareholders’ Equity of the Borrower (which for purposes of this calculation shall exclude the aggregate amount of

(ix) the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the Value of the Portfolio Investments attributable to any investment in a
Financing Subsidiary shall be 0%. 
 (b) No Portfolio Investment may be included in the Borrowing Base until such time as such Portfolio
Investment has been Delivered (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) to the Collateral Agent, and then only for so long as such Portfolio Investment continues to be Delivered as contemplated therein; provided that in the case of any
Portfolio Investment in which the Collateral Agent has a first-priority perfected security interest pursuant to a valid Uniform Commercial Code filing (and for which no other method of perfection with a higher priority is possible), such Portfolio
Investment may be included in the Borrowing Base so long as all remaining actions to complete “Delivery” are satisfied within 7 days of such inclusion. Voting stock of any Controlled Foreign Corporation in excess of 66% of the issued and
outstanding voting stock of such Controlled Foreign Corporation shall not be included as a Portfolio Investment for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base. 

For the avoidance of doubt, to avoid double-counting of excess concentrations, any Advance Rate reductions set forth under this
Section 5.13 shall be without duplication of any other such Advance Rate reductions. For purposes of the categorization of each Portfolio 












 
Investment in accordance with this Section 5.13, the amount of any “first lien debt” or EBITDA with respect to any Portfolio Investment shall be determined using the most recent
quarterly valuation determined in accordance with the valuation procedures set forth in Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B).
