(j)           References
in this Agreement to the Borrower’s “purchase” or “acquisition” of a Loan include references to the
Borrower’s acquisition of such Collateral Loan by way of a sale and/or contribution from the BDC and the Borrower’s
making or origination of such Loan. Portions of the same Loan acquired by the Borrower on different dates (whether through purchase,
receipt by contribution or the making or origination thereof) will, for purposes of determining the purchase price of such Loan,
be treated as separate purchases on separate dates (and not a weighted average purchase price for any particular Loan).


 


(k)          For
the purposes of calculating compliance with each of the Concentration Limitations all calculations will be rounded to the nearest
0.01%.


 


(l)           Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all monetary calculations under this Agreement shall be in Dollars. For
purposes of this Agreement, calculations with respect to all amounts received or required to be paid in a currency other than Dollars
shall be valued at zero.


 


(m)         Other
than for purposes of determining whether the conditions for each Advance have been satisfied, for purposes of calculating compliance
with any test under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Maximum Advance Rate Test, Interest Coverage Ratio Test
and any Concentration Limitation), the trade date (and not the settlement date) with respect to any acquisition or disposition
of a Loan shall be used to determine whether and when such acquisition or disposition has occurred so long as such acquisition
or disposition settles within 30 days of the trade date. If such acquisition or disposition does not settle within 30 days of the
trade date, all such tests shall be recalculated based on the date such acquisition or disposition of a Loan actually settles.
For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating compliance with any test under this Agreement to determine whether the
conditions for each Advance have been satisfied, the settlement date (and not the trade date) with respect to any acquisition or
disposition of a Loan shall be used to determine whether and when such acquisition or disposition has occurred.


 


Section 1.05.         Calculation
of Borrowing Base. In connection with amounts to be calculated for purposes of determining the Borrowing Base and generally
preparing the Borrowing Base Calculation Statement, all amounts shall be expressed in Dollars.

Article II



Advances


 


Section 2.01.         Revolving
Credit Facility. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, including Article III, each
Lender severally agrees to make loans in Dollars to the Borrower (each, an “Advance”) from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the Funding Effective Date until the Commitment Termination Date, on a pro rata basis in each
case in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding such Lender’s Commitment and, as
to all Lenders, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not exceeding the Maximum Available Amount (which shall be determined
using the Advance Rate applicable to the Maximum Advance Rate Test) as then in effect. Each such borrowing of an Advance on any
single day is referred to herein as a “Borrowing”. Within such limits and subject to the other terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow (and re-borrow) Advances under this Section 2.01 and prepay Advances under
Section 2.05.


 


Section 2.02.         Making
of the Advances. (a) If the Borrower desires to make a Borrowing under this Agreement, the Borrower, or the Collateral
Manager on its behalf, shall give the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent a written notice (each, a “Notice
of Borrowing”) for such Borrowing (which notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt) not later than 12:00
noon on the Business Day prior to the day of the requested Borrowing; provided, however that notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, no more than two Advances may be made in a calendar week. A Notice of Borrowing received
after 3:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the following Business Day.


 


Promptly following
receipt of a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender
of the details thereof and of the amounts of such Lender’s Advance to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. Each Notice
of Borrowing shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A, dated the date the request for the related Borrowing is being
made, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager, as applicable, shall attach a Borrowing Base Calculation
Statement as of the Borrowing Date after giving effect to the requested Borrowing and shall otherwise be appropriately completed.
The proposed Borrowing Date specified in each Notice of Borrowing shall be a Business Day falling on or prior to the Commitment
Termination Date, and the amount of the Borrowing requested in such Notice of Borrowing (the “Requested Amount”)
shall be equal to at least $250,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)          Each
Lender shall, not later than 1:00 p.m. on each Borrowing Date, make its Percentage of the applicable Requested Amount on
each Borrowing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collateral Agent Account.


 


Section 2.03.         Evidence
of Indebtedness. (a) Maintenance of Records by Lender. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to it and resulting from the Advances made by such
Lender to the Borrower, from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest thereon and paid to it, from time to
time hereunder, provided that the failure of any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not
in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 




    	 	-52-	 



     


    

 


(b)          Maintenance
of Records by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall
maintain records in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Advance made hereunder, (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 the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.


 


(c)          Effect
of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be prima facie
evidence, absent obvious 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 Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


Section 2.04.         Payment
of Principal and Interest. The Borrower shall pay principal and Interest on the Advances as follows:


 


(a)          100%
of the outstanding principal amount of each Advance, together with all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon, shall be payable on
the Final Maturity Date.


 


(b)          Interest
shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance at the applicable Interest Rate from the date of such Advance until
such principal amount is paid in full. The Administrative Agent shall determine the unpaid Interest and Commitment Fees payable
thereto prior to each Payment Date (using the applicable Interest Rate for each day during the related Interest Accrual Period)
to be paid by the Borrower with respect to each Advance on each Payment Date for the related Interest Accrual Period and shall
advise the Collateral Manager and the Collateral Administrator thereof on the sixth Business Day prior to such Payment Date. The
Administrative Agent shall send a consolidated invoice of all such Interest and Commitment Fees to the Borrower on the Business
Day following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of all such information from the Lenders.


 


(c)          Accrued
Interest on each Advance shall be payable in arrears (x) on each Payment Date, and (y) in connection with any prepayment in full
of the Advances pursuant to Section 2.05(a); provided that (i) with respect to any prepayment in full of the Advances
outstanding, accrued Interest on such amount to but excluding the date of prepayment may be payable on such date or as otherwise
agreed to between the Lenders and the Borrower and (ii) with respect to any partial prepayment of the Advances outstanding, accrued
Interest on such amount to but excluding the date of prepayment shall be payable following such prepayment on the applicable Payment
Date for the Collection Period in which such prepayment occurred.


 




    	 	-53-	 



     


    

 


(d)          Subject
in all cases to Section 2.04(f), the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Obligations, including the obligation of
the Borrower to pay the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Advances and accrued interest thereon, shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof (including Section 2.14),
under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower or any other
Person may have or have had against any Secured Party or any other Person.


 


(e)          As
a condition to the payment of principal of and Interest on any Advance without the imposition of withholding tax, the Borrower
or either Agent may require certification acceptable to it to enable the Borrower and the Agents to determine their duties and
liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that they may be required to deduct or withhold from payments in respect
of such Advance under any present or future law or regulation of the United States and any other applicable jurisdiction, or any
present or future law or regulation of any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein or to comply with any reporting
or other requirements under any such law or regulation.


 


(f)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of
the Borrower payable solely from the Collateral and, following realization of the Collateral, and application of the proceeds thereof
in accordance with the Priority of Payments and, subject to Section 2.12, all obligations of and any claims against
the Borrower hereunder or in connection herewith after such realization shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive.
No recourse shall be had against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, Affiliate, member, manager, agent, partner, principal
or incorporator of the Borrower or their respective successors or assigns for any amounts payable under this Agreement. It is understood
that the foregoing provisions of this clause (f) shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Collateral for the sums
due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral or (ii) constitute a waiver,
release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by this Agreement until such Collateral has been realized. It
is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this clause (f) shall not limit the right of any Person to name
the Borrower as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under this Agreement, so long as no
judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against
the Borrower.


 




    	 	-54-	 



     


    

 


Section 2.05.         Prepayment
of Advances. (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, from time to time on any Business Day but no more than once
during any calendar week, voluntarily prepay Advances in whole or in part, without penalty or premium; provided that
the Borrower shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent written notice of such prepayment (such
notice, a “Notice of Prepayment”) in the form of Exhibit B not later than 3:00 p.m. at least one (1)
Business Day prior to the day of such prepayment (provided that same day notice may be given to cure any non-compliance with the
Maximum Advance Rate Test). Each such Notice of Prepayment shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt and shall be dated the
date such notice is being given, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and otherwise appropriately completed. Further,
each such Notice of Prepayment shall specify the Borrowing(s) and the related Tranche Period(s) for which such prepayment shall
be applied to; provided that, if no Borrowing or Borrowings are so specified in such Notice of Prepayment, then the
Borrower shall be deemed to have selected to apply such prepayment first, to the Borrowing or Borrowings with Tranche Periods
of one month duration, if any, until repaid in full, then, to the Borrowing or Borrowings with Tranche Periods of three
months duration, if any. If no Tranche Period is specified in a Notice of Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected a Tranche Period of three months duration. Each prepayment of any Advance by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)
(other than a prepayment made in order to cure any non-compliance with the Maximum Advance Rate Test) shall in each case be in
a principal amount of at least $500,000 or, if less, the entire outstanding principal amount of the Advances of the Borrower. If
a Notice of Prepayment is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. The Borrower
shall make the payment amount specified in such notice by wire
transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m. to the Agent’s Account. The Administrative Agent promptly will make
such payment amount specified in such notice available to each Lender in the amount of each Lender’s Percentage of
the payment amount by wire transfer to such Lender’s account.
Any funds for purposes of a voluntary prepayment received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received
on the next Business Day.


 


(b)          Mandatory
Prepayments. The Borrower shall prepay the Advances on each Payment Date in the manner and to the extent provided in the Priority
of Payments. The Borrower shall provide, in each Monthly Report, notice of the aggregate amounts of Advances that are to be prepaid
on the related Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments.


 


(c)          Additional
Prepayment Provisions. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be subject to Sections 2.04(c)
and 2.10 and applied to the Advances in accordance with the Lenders’ respective Percentages.


 


(d)          Interest
on Prepaid Advances. If requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid Interest on Advances
prepaid on the date of such prepayment.


 


Section 2.06.         Changes
of Commitments. (a) Automatic Reduction and Termination.  The Commitments of all Lenders shall be automatically reduced
to zero at 5:00 p.m. on the Commitment Termination Date.


 


(b)          Optional
Reductions.  Prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the unused
amount of the Facility Amount at any time or from time to time without any fee or penalty (other than any applicable Commitment
Reduction Fee) upon not less than two Business Days’ prior notice to the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date of such termination or reduction and
the amount of any such reduction; provided that (i) the amount of any such reduction of the Facility Amount shall
be equal to at least $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the remaining unused portion
thereof, and (ii) no such reduction will reduce the Facility Amount below the aggregate principal amount of Advances outstanding
at such time. Such notice of termination or reduction shall be irrevocable and effective only upon receipt and shall be applied
pro rata to reduce the respective Commitments of each Lender.


 




    	 	-55-	 



     


    

 


(c)          Effect
of Termination or Reduction.  The Commitments of the Lenders once terminated or reduced may not be reinstated. Each reduction
of the Facility Amount pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be applied ratably among the Lenders in accordance with
their respective Commitments.


 


(d)          Payment
of Commitment Reduction Fee. If applicable, the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, for their own use and benefit, the Commitment
Reduction Fee in connection with any optional reduction of the Facility Amount, subject to and in accordance with the Lender Fee
Letter.


 


Section 2.07.         Maximum
Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the interest on the Advances shall not exceed the maximum rate
permissible under Applicable Law. Accordingly, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event any interest is charged
to, collected from or received from or on behalf of the Borrower by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto in excess of such maximum
lawful rate, then the excess of such payment over that maximum shall be applied first to the payment of amounts then due and owing
by the Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement (other than in respect of principal of and interest on the Advances)
and then to the reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Advances of the Borrower.


 


Section 2.08.         Several
Obligations. The failure of any Lender to make any Advance to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve
any other Lender of its obligation to make its Advance on such date, neither Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any
Lender to make any Advance, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make an Advance to be made
by such other Lender.


 


Section 2.09.         Increased
Costs. (a)          Except with respect to taxes, which shall be governed
exclusively by Section 16.03, if, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation,
application or implementation of any Applicable Law or GAAP or other applicable accounting policy after the date hereof, or (ii) the
compliance with any guideline or change in the interpretation, application or implementation of any guideline or request from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) after the date hereof (a “Regulatory
Change”), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Affected Person of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining
Advances to the Borrower, then the Borrower shall from time to time in accordance with the Priority of Payments, on the Payment
Date occurring at least 5 Business Days following such Affected Person’s demand, pay in accordance with the Priority of Payments
such Affected Person such additional amounts as may be sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for such increased cost. A
certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by an Affected Person
(with a copy to the Agents), shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, each of (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith, and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by
the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the
United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III shall be deemed to have been introduced after
the Closing Date, thereby constituting a Regulatory Change hereunder with respect to the Affected Person as of the Closing Date,
regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.


 




    	 	-56-	 



     


    

 


(b)          If
an Affected Person determines that compliance with any Applicable Law, request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) or any Regulatory Change, in
each case, introduced or made after the date hereof (i) affects the amount of capital or liquidity required to be maintained
by such Affected Person and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Affected
Person’s Commitment under this Agreement or upon such Affected Person’s making, funding or maintaining Advances or
(ii) reduces the rate of return of an Affected Person to a level below that which such Affected Person could have achieved
but for such compliance (taking into consideration such Affected Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity),
then the Borrower shall from time to time (and, to the extent the funds available for payment thereof by the Borrower are insufficient
to pay such amounts in full on the applicable Payment Date, the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, shall be obligated
to pay such amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments), on the Payment Date occurring at least 5 Business Days following
such Affected Person’s demand, pay in accordance with the Priority of Payments such additional amounts which are sufficient
to compensate such Affected Person for such increase in capital or liquidity or reduced return. If any Affected Person becomes
entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09(b), it shall notify, within a commercially reasonable
time, the Borrower (with a copy to the Agents) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate setting
forth in reasonable detail such amounts submitted to the Borrower by an Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.


 


(c)          Upon
the occurrence of any event giving rise to the Borrower’s obligation to pay additional amounts to a Lender pursuant to clauses
(a) or (b) of this Section 2.09, such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower), use reasonable efforts (subject
to the customary practices of such Lender) to minimize any increased amounts payable by the Borrower which at first shall include,
but not be limited to, designating a different lending office for the funding or the booking of its Advances hereunder or
to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such
Lender, such designation or assignment would reduce or obviate the obligations of the Borrower to make future payments
of such additional amounts; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending
office suffer no unreimbursed cost or material legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably determined by such Lender), with
the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such provision. The
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation
or assignment.


 




    	 	-57-	 



     


    

 


Section 2.10.         Compensation;
Breakage Payments. The Borrower agrees to compensate each Affected Person from time to time, on the Payment Dates, following
such Affected Person’s written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), in accordance
with the Priority of Payments for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Affected
Person to lenders of funds borrowed to make or carry an Advance and any loss sustained by such Affected Person in connection with
the re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits), which such Affected Person may sustain: (i) if
for any reason (including any failure of a condition precedent set forth in Article III but excluding a default by
the applicable Lender) a Borrowing of any Advance by the Borrower does not occur on the Borrowing Date specified therefor in the
applicable Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Borrower, (ii) if any payment, prepayment or conversion of any of the Borrower’s
Advances occurs on a date that is not the last day of the relevant Tranche Period, (iii) if any payment or prepayment of
any Advance is not made on any date specified in a Notice of Prepayment given by the Borrower or (iv) as a consequence of
any other default by the Borrower to repay its Advances when required by the terms of this Agreement. A certificate as to any
amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.10 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Agents,
and accompanied by a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts and a description of the basis for requesting such amounts)
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.


 


Section 2.11.         Illegality;
Inability to Determine Rates. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event of a Eurodollar
Disruption Event, then the affected Lender shall promptly notify the Agents and the Borrower thereof, and such Lender’s obligation
to make or maintain Advances hereunder based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall be suspended until such time as such Lender
may again make and maintain Advances based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate.


 


(b)          Upon
the occurrence of any event giving rise to a Lender’s suspension of its obligation to make or maintain Advances based on
the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate pursuant to Section 2.11(a), such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (subject to the
customary practices of such Lender) to designate a different lending office if such designation would enable such Lender to again
make and maintain Advances based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate; provided that such designation is made on such
terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no unreimbursed cost or material legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably
determined by such Lender), with the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such
provision.


 


(c)          If,
prior to the first day of any Interest Accrual Period or prior to the date of any Advance, as applicable, either (i) the Administrative
Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for the applicable
Advances, or (ii) the Required Lenders determine and notify the Administrative Agent that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate with
respect to such Advances does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Advances (provided that
each such Lender has generally made a similar determination with respect to its other borrowers under facilities bearing interest
at an index based on the London interbank offered rate), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower, the Collateral
Agent, the Collateral Administrator and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Advances based
on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders)
revokes such notice.


 




    	 	-58-	 



     


    

 


Section 2.12.         Rescission
or Return of Payment. The Borrower agrees that, if at any time (including after the occurrence of the Final Maturity Date)
all or any part of any payment theretofore made by it to any Secured Party or any designee of a Secured Party is or must be rescinded
or returned for any reason whatsoever (including the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates),
the obligation of the Borrower to make such payment to such Secured Party shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, to the extent
that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence and this Agreement shall continue
to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such obligations, all as though such payment had not been made.


 


Section 2.13.         Past
Due Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on all Obligations other than amounts due under Section 16.04(a) and other
Administrative Expenses that are not paid when due for the period from the due date thereof until the date the same is paid in
full at the Past Due Rate. Interest payable at the Past Due Rate shall be payable on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority
of Payments.


 


Section 2.14.         Payments
Generally. (a) All amounts owing and payable to any Secured Party, any Affected Person or any Indemnified Party, in respect
of the Advances and other Obligations, including the principal thereof, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses or other amounts
payable under this Agreement, shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for account of the applicable recipient
in Dollars, in immediately available funds, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and all without counterclaim, setoff,
deduction, defense, abatement, suspension or deferment. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall provide wire instructions
to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent. Payments must be received by the Administrative Agent for account
of the Lenders on or prior to 3:00 p.m. on a Business Day; provided that, payments received by the Administrative
Agent after 3:00 p.m. on a Business Day will be deemed to have been paid on the next following Business Day.


 


(b)          Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, all computations of interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made on the basis of
a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed in computing interest on any Advance, the date of the making of the
Advance shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided that, if an Advance is repaid on the
same day on which it is made, one day’s Interest shall be paid on such Advance. All computations made by a Lender, the Collateral
Agent or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 




    	 	-59-	 



     


    

 


Section 2.15.         Increase
in Facility Amount. The Borrower may, on any Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Date, increase the Facility Amount
by delivering a request substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (each, a “Facility Amount Increase
Request”) to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative
Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the desired effective date of such increase (the “Facility Amount Increase”)
identifying an additional Lender that is a Permitted Assignee (or additional Commitments for existing Lender(s) which have consented
to such increase), and the amount of its Commitment (or additional amount of its Commitment(s)); provided, however,
that (i) the Facility Amount shall not exceed $50,000,000 without the consent of all Lenders, (ii) any increase of the
aggregate amount of the Facility Amount shall be in an amount not less than $10,000,000, (iii) no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the request or the effective date of the Facility Amount Increase, (iv) all
representations and warranties contained in Article IV hereof (as the same may be amended from time to time) shall be true
and correct in all material respects (except for representations and warranties already qualified by materiality or Material Adverse
Effect, which shall be true and correct) at the time of such request and on the effective date of such Facility Amount Increase,
and (v) unless such increase is increasing the Commitment of, and with the consent of, an existing Lender, the Administrative Agent
shall have provided its written consent to such increase (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The effective
date of the Facility Amount Increase shall be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness
thereof, the new Lender(s) (or, if applicable, existing Lender(s)) shall make Advances in an amount sufficient such that after
giving effect to its advance each Lender shall have outstanding its Percentage of Advances. It shall be a condition to such effectiveness
that (i) if any Advances are bearing interest at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate on the date of such effectiveness, such Advances
shall be deemed to be prepaid on such date and the Borrower shall pay any amounts owing to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10
hereof, provided, however, that if a Facility Amount Increase is made among the existing Lenders and the amount of
the increase in each such Lender’s Commitment is on a pro rata basis in accordance with the existing Commitments of such
Lenders on the date of such Facility Amount Increase, such Advances bearing interest at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall not
be deemed to be prepaid on such date and (ii) the Borrower shall not have terminated any portion of the Commitments pursuant to
Section 2.06 hereof. The Borrower agrees to promptly pay any reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent and the
affected Lender(s) relating to any Facility Amount Increase. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have
any obligation to increase its Commitment and no Lender’s Commitment shall be increased without its consent thereto, and
each Lender may at its option, unconditionally and without cause, decline to increase its Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt,
each Advance made under a Facility Amount Increase shall be subject to the same terms (including pricing) as an Advance under the
existing Facility Amount.


 


Section 2.16.         Defaulting
Lenders. (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law:


 


(i)           Waivers
and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect
to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

(ii)          Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VI or otherwise) shall be applied
at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts
owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no
Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund
its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting
Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment
of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against
such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth,
so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court
of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances
in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances were made at a time
when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay
the Advances of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting
Lender until such time as all Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Percentages of the Commitments.
Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed
by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and
redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.


 


(iii)         Certain
Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting
Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to
that Defaulting Lender).


 


(b)          Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender,
the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject
to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances
of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances
to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages of the Commitments, whereupon such Lender will
cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued
or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further,
that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender
will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting
Lender.

Section 2.17.         Tranche
Period Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall accrue Interest at the Interest Rate for the applicable Tranche Period
specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. If no Tranche Period is specified in a Notice of Borrowing, then the Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected a Tranche Period of three months duration. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such
Borrowing to a different Tranche Period as provided in this Section 2.17.


 


(b)          To
make an election pursuant to this Section 2.17, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral
Agent) of such election by delivery of a Tranche Period Election Request by the time that a Notice of Borrowing would be required
under Section 2.02 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing to be made on the effective date of such election. Each
Tranche Period Election Request shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be
construed to permit the Borrower to elect a Tranche Period that does not comply with the proviso to clause (ii) of the definition
thereof.


 


(c)          Each
Tranche Period Election Request shall specify the following information:


 


(i)          the
Borrowing to which such Tranche Period Election Request applies;


 


(ii)         the
effective date of the election made pursuant to such Tranche Period Election Request, which shall be the first day after the end
of the then applicable Tranche Period; and


 


(iii)        the
Tranche Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which Tranche Period shall be a period contemplated
by the definition of the term “Tranche Period”.


 


(d)          Promptly
following receipt of a Tranche Period Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof
and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.


 


(e)          If
the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Tranche Period Election Request with respect to a Borrowing prior to the end of the Tranche
Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Tranche Period, such Borrowing
shall continue to accrue Interest with respect to the last selected or deemed selected Tranche Period. 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 (with a copy to the Collateral Agent), then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, each
Borrowing shall be converted to a Borrowing that accrues Interest with respect to a Tranche Period of three months duration at
the end of the Tranche Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.18.         Successor
LIBOR Rate. (a) If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest
error) that either (a)(i) the circumstances set forth in Section 2.11 have arisen and are unlikely to be temporary, or (ii)
the circumstances set forth in Section 2.11 have not arisen but the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the
interbank Eurodollar market or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement
identifying the specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans (either
such date, a “LIBOR Termination Date”), or (b) a rate other than the LIBOR Rate has become a widely recognized
benchmark rate for newly originated loans in Dollars in the U.S. market, then the Administrative Agent may (in consultation with
the Collateral Manager and the Borrower) choose a replacement index for the LIBOR Rate and make adjustments to applicable margins
and related amendments to this Agreement as referred to below such that, to the extent practicable, the all-in interest rate based
on the replacement index will be substantially equivalent to the all-in LIBOR Rate-based interest rate in effect prior to its replacement.


 


(b)          The
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect the replacement
index, the adjusted margins and such other related amendments as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent
for the implementation and administration of the replacement index-based rate, and shall provide notice and a copy of such proposed
amendment to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Document Custodian and the Lenders not less than ten (10)
Business Days prior to the execution of such amendment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other
Facility Documents (including, without limitation, Section 16.01), such amendment shall become effective without any further
action or consent of any other party to this Agreement at 5:00 p.m. on the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date a draft of
the amendment is provided to the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Document Custodian and the Collateral Administrator, unless
the Administrative Agent receives, on or before such tenth (10th) Business Day, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating
that such Lenders object to such amendment.


 


(c)          Selection
of the replacement index, adjustments to the applicable margins, and amendments to this Agreement (i) will be determined with due
consideration to the then-current market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for newly originated loans
in the United States and loans converted from a LIBOR Rate-based rate to a replacement index-based rate, and (ii) may also reflect
adjustments to account for (x) the effects of the transition from the LIBOR Rate to the replacement index and (y) yield- or risk-based
differences between the LIBOR Rate and the replacement index.


 


(d)          Until
an amendment reflecting a new replacement index in accordance with this Section 2.18 is effective, each advance, conversion
and renewal of an Advance at the LIBOR Rate will continue to bear interest with reference to the LIBOR Rate, as applicable; provided,
however, that if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest
error) that a LIBOR Termination Date has occurred, then following the LIBOR Termination Date, all Advances as to which the LIBOR
Rate would otherwise apply shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate (without the incurrence of any breakage costs or expenses
under Section 2.10) until such time as an amendment reflecting a replacement index and related matters as described above
is implemented.


 




    	 	-63-	 



     


    

 


(e)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the replacement index is less than zero, at such times, such index shall
be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.


 


(f)          For
the avoidance of doubt, none of the Collateral Agent, the Document Custodian and the Collateral Administrator shall have any responsibility
for the selection of replacement index (including any replacement index adopted pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement), any
adjustments to applicable margins or related amendments or any liability for any failure or delay in performing their duties hereunder
solely as a result of the unavailability of “LIBOR”, the LIBOR Rate, or any other index rate herein.

Organization. The Borrower is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of
Delaware, with full power and authority to own and operate its assets and properties, conduct the business in which it is now engaged

to do business and, to the extent applicable, is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the nature of its business,
assets and properties, including the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the other Facility Documents to which
it is a party and its Constituent Documents, requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good
standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Authorization; Execution and Delivery; Legal, Valid and Binding; Enforceability. The execution and delivery by the Borrower
of, and the performance of its obligations under the Facility Documents to which it is a party and the other instruments, certificates

breaches, violations or defaults could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 




    	 	-68-	 



     


    

 


(e)          Governmental
Authorizations; Private Authorizations; Governmental Filings. The Borrower has obtained, maintained and kept in full force
and effect all Governmental Authorizations and Private Authorizations which are necessary for it to properly carry out its business,

Filings necessary for the execution and delivery by it of the Facility Documents to which it is a party, the Borrowings by the
Borrower under this Agreement, the pledge of the Collateral by the Borrower under this Agreement and the performance by the Borrower
of its obligations under this Agreement, the other Facility Documents, and no material Governmental Authorization, Private Authorization

of the Collateral by the Borrower under this Agreement or the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the other
Facility Documents to which it is a party.


 


(f)          Compliance
with Agreements, Laws, Etc. The Borrower has duly observed and complied in all material respects with all Applicable Laws relating
to the conduct of its business and its assets. The Borrower has preserved and kept in full force and effect its rights, privileges,
qualifications and franchises, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. Without limiting the foregoing, (x) to the extent applicable, the Borrower is in compliance in all material respects
with the regulations and rules promulgated by the U.S. Department of Treasury and/or administered by the U.S. Office of Foreign
Asset Controls (“OFAC”), including U.S. Executive Order No. 13224, and other related statutes, laws and regulations

(h)          Investment
Company Act. Assuming compliance by each of the Lenders and any participant with Section 16.06(e), neither the Borrower
nor the pool of Collateral is required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. The
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Facility Documents do not result in the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent or the Lenders holding an “ownership interest” in a “covered fund” for purposes of the Volcker Rule.


 


(i)           Information
and Reports. Each Notice of Borrowing, each Monthly Report and all other written information, reports, certificates and statements
(other than projections and forward-looking statements) furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to any Secured Party for purposes
of or in connection with this Agreement, the other Facility Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are (when
taken as a whole) true and correct in all material respects and does not omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
contained therein not misleading as of the date such information is stated or certified. All projections and forward-looking statements
furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower were prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time
they were provided.


 


(j)           ERISA.
Neither the Borrower nor any member of the ERISA Group has, or during the past five years had, any liability or obligation with
respect to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan.

The Borrower has filed all income tax returns and all other material tax returns which are required to be filed by it, if any,
and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns, if any, or pursuant to any assessment received by any such
Person, other than any such taxes, assessments or charges that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and
for which appropriate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been established.


 


(l)          Tax
Status. For U.S. federal income tax purposes the Borrower is (i) disregarded as an entity separate from its owner and
(ii) has not made an election under U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 and is not otherwise treated as an association
taxable as a corporation.


 


(m)         Collections.
The Borrower (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower) has instructed all Obligors or related administrative and paying
agents under the Related Documents to remit all Collections directly to the Collection Account.


 


(n)          Plan
Assets. The assets of the Borrower are not treated as “plan assets” for purposes of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.03-101
and Section 3(42) of ERISA (the “Plan Asset Rule”) and the Collateral is not deemed to be “plan assets”
for purposes of the Plan Asset Rule. The Borrower has not taken, or omitted to take, any action which would result in any of the
Collateral being treated as “plan assets” for purposes of the Plan Asset Rule or, assuming that the assets of the Lenders,
the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are not deemed to be “plan assets” for the purposes of the Plan Asset
Rule, the occurrence of any Prohibited Transaction in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder.

(i)          it
owns and has legal and beneficial title to all Collateral Loans and other Collateral free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance

the Collateral. The Borrower has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements or any equivalent filing

any financing statement or any equivalent filing in any applicable jurisdiction relating to the security interest granted to the
Collateral Agent hereunder or that has been terminated; and the Borrower is not aware of any judgment, PBGC liens or tax lien filings

Covered Accounts constitute “securities accounts” under Section 8-501(a) of the UCC;

creditors of and purchasers from the Borrower;


 


(vi)        the

the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the
Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties, hereunder (which the Borrower
hereby agrees may be an “all asset” filing). Such filing of a financing statement is sufficient to perfect such security
interest under applicable law (to the extent a security interest may be perfected under the UCC solely by filing of a financing
statement); and

Agent or such Lender) to, upon reasonable advance notice (which, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
shall not be less than two Business Days) and during normal business hours, visit and inspect and make copies thereof at reasonable
intervals (i) of its books, records and accounts relating to its business, financial condition, operations, assets and its
performance under the Facility Documents and the Related Documents and to discuss the foregoing with its and such Person’s
officers, partners, employees and accountants, and (ii) all of its Related Documents, in each case all as often as the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders may reasonably request; provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
each Person entitled to so visit and inspect the Borrower’s records under this clause (e) may only exercise its
rights under this clause (e) twice during any fiscal year of the Borrower (it being understood that the Borrower shall
be responsible for all costs and expenses for only one such visit per fiscal year absent the occurrence and continuance of an Event

view to minimizing duplication of effort and expense by the Borrower.


 


(f)          Use

their membership interests in the Borrower).

or any Lender to conduct any such evaluation or appraisal; provided that (i) 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 and (ii) such evaluation or appraisal shall not be duplicative of any audit under Section
5.03(e). Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the other Lenders in exercising their
respective rights under this paragraph (g) and under Section 5.03(e) with a view to minimizing duplication of effort
and expense by the Borrower.


 


(h)          Opinions

the Borrower to be subject to U.S. Federal or material state or local income tax on a net income basis.


 


(j)           Tax
Matters. The Borrower shall (and each Lender hereby agrees to) treat the Advances as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes
and will take no contrary position, except to the extent required by law. Assuming that such treatment is correct, the Borrower
shall at all times maintain its status as an entity disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. The Borrower shall at all times ensure that its owner is and will remain a United States person as defined by Section 7701(a)(30)
of the Code. Notwithstanding any contrary agreement or understanding, the Collateral Manager, the Borrower, the Agents and the
Lenders (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons, without

of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

related loan documents, bond indentures and related bond documents, any agreements related to the purchase and sale of any Loans

her appointment as independent manager has not been, and during the continuation of his or her service as independent manager,
is not: (i) an employee, manager, member, stockholder, partner or officer of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates (other

shall notify the Administrative Agent of any decision to appoint a new manager of the Borrower as the “independent manager”
for purposes of this Agreement, such notice shall be delivered not less than ten days prior to the proposed effective date of such
appointment (unless such appointment is due to the resignation, death, incapacity, disability or unwillingness to serve of the
prior independent manager, in which case the Borrower shall deliver notice promptly upon identifying the successor independent

(v)         Changes
to Related Documents. If any amendment, consent, waiver or other modification with respect to a Related Document (other than
a Defaulted Loan or an Ineligible Loan) would constitute a Material Modification, then the Borrower shall not cause or vote in

Default, without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).


 


(w)         Anti-Corruption
and Sanctions. The Borrower will not request any Borrowing, and shall not use the proceeds of any Borrowing (i) in furtherance
of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person
in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (ii) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or

conditions of each Facility Document, Constituent Document and each Related Document to which it is a party, and (v) obtain,
maintain and keep in full force and effect all Governmental Authorizations, Private Authorizations and Governmental Filings which
are necessary to carry out its business and the transactions contemplated to be performed by it under the Facility Documents, the
Constituent Documents and the Related Documents to which it is a party.


 




    	 	-85-	 



     


    

 


(b)          Enforcement.
(i) It shall not take any action, and will use commercially reasonable efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others,
that would release any Person from any of such Person’s covenants or obligations under any instrument included in the Collateral,
except in the case of (A) repayment of Collateral Loans, (B) subject to the terms of this Agreement, (1) amendments
to Related Documents that govern Defaulted Loans or Ineligible Loans, (2) amendments to Collateral Loans in accordance with the
Credit and Collection Policies and the Collateral Management Standard, and (3) actions taken in connection with the work-out
or restructuring of any Collateral Loan in accordance with the provisions hereof, and (C) other actions by the Collateral
Manager to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement or as otherwise required hereby.


 


(ii)         It
will not, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, contract with other Persons for
the performance of actions and obligations to be performed by the Collateral Manager hereunder. Notwithstanding any such arrangement,
the Collateral Manager shall remain primarily liable with respect thereto. In the event of such contract, the performance of such
actions and obligations by such Persons shall be deemed to be performance of such actions and obligations by the Collateral Manager,
and the Collateral Manager will punctually perform all of its obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement or any such
other agreement.


 


(c)          Further
Assurances. It shall promptly at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver such further instruments and take such further
action in order to maintain and protect the Collateral Agent’s first-priority perfected security interest in the Collateral
pledged by the Borrower for the benefit of the Secured Parties free and clear of any Liens (subject to Permitted Liens). The Collateral
Manager shall promptly take, at the Borrower’s expense, such further action necessary to establish and protect the rights,
interests and remedies created or intended to be created under this Agreement in favor of the Secured Parties in the Collateral,
including all actions which are necessary to (x) enable the Secured Parties to enforce their rights and remedies under this
Agreement and the other Facility Documents, and (y) effectuate the intent and purpose of, and to carry out the terms of, the
Facility Documents.


 


In addition, the Collateral
Manager will take such reasonable action from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that all assets (including all Covered
Accounts, but excluding all Excluded Amounts) of the Borrower constitute “Collateral” hereunder. Subject to
the foregoing, the Collateral Manager will at the Borrower’s expense, take such other action (including executing and delivering
or authorizing for filing any required UCC financing statements) as shall be necessary to create and perfect a valid and enforceable
first-priority security interest on all Collateral acquired by the Borrower as collateral security for the Obligations.


 




    	 	-86-	 



     


    

 


(d)          Access
to Records and Documents. It shall permit the Administrative Agent and each Lender (or any Person designated by the Administrative
Agent or such Lender) to, upon reasonable advance notice (which, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
shall not be less than five Business Days) and during normal business hours, visit and inspect and make copies thereof at reasonable
intervals (i) its books, records and accounts relating to its business, financial condition, operations, assets and its performance
under the Facility Documents and the Related Documents and to discuss the foregoing with its and such Person’s officers,
partners, employees and accountants, and (ii) all of its Related Documents, in each case all as often as the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders may reasonably request; provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred, each Person
entitled to so visit and inspect the Collateral Manager’s records under this paragraph (d) may only exercise its rights
under this paragraph (d) twice during any fiscal year of the Collateral Manager (it being understood that the Borrower shall
be responsible for all costs and expenses for only one such visit per fiscal year absent the occurrence and continuance of an Event
of Default). The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with each other
Lender in exercising their respective rights under this paragraph (d) and under Section 5.01(e) with a view
to minimizing duplication of effort and expense by the Borrower and the Collateral Manager.


 


(e)          Audit
Rights. It will permit the Administrative Agent and any Lender (or any representatives thereof (including any consultants,
accountants, lawyers and appraisers)) to conduct evaluations and appraisals of the Collateral Manager’s computation of the
Borrowing Base and the assets included in the Borrowing Base at least once and no more than twice during any fiscal year of the
Collateral Manager. The Borrower shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any representatives retained by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to conduct any such evaluation or appraisal; provided that (i) 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 and (ii) such evaluation or appraisal shall not be duplicative of any audit
under Section 5.01(g). Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable terms to coordinate with the other Lenders in exercising
their respective rights under this paragraph (e) and under paragraph (d) above with a view to minimizing duplication
of effort and expense by the Borrower.


 


(f)           Independent
Manager. The Collateral Manager shall notify the Administrative Agent of any decision to appoint a new manager of the Borrower
as the “independent manager” for purposes of this Agreement, such notice shall be delivered not less than ten days
prior to the proposed effective date of such appointment (unless such appointment is due to the resignation, death, incapacity,
disability or unwillingness to serve of the prior independent manager, in which case the Collateral Manager shall deliver notice
promptly upon receipt of knowledge of such resignation) and shall certify that the designated Person satisfies the Independent
Manager Criteria.


 


(g)          Information
and Reports. Each Notice of Borrowing, each Monthly Report and all other written information, reports, certificates and statements
furnished by or on behalf of the Collateral Manager to any other Secured Party for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement,
the other Facility Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be true, complete and correct in all material
respects as of the date such information is stated or certified; provided that solely with respect to information
furnished by the Collateral Manager which was provided to the Collateral Manager from an Obligor with respect to a Collateral Loan,
such information shall only need to be true, complete and correct in all material respects to the actual knowledge of the Collateral
Manager.

material any condition upon its ability to perform its obligations under the Facility Documents.


 


(b)          Validity
of this Agreement. It shall not (i) take any action to permit or fail to take any action that would cause the validity

be amended, hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or obligations
with respect to this Agreement (except in accordance with its terms) and (ii) except as permitted by this Agreement, take
any action that would permit the lien of this Agreement not to constitute a valid first priority security interest in the Collateral
(subject to Permitted Liens).


 


(c)          Liquidation;
Merger; Disposition of Assets. It shall not consummate any plan of liquidation, dissolution, partial liquidation, merger or
consolidation (or suffer any liquidation, dissolution or partial liquidation) nor sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose
of all or substantially all of its assets or enter into any agreement or commitment to do so, except (i) with the prior written
consent of the Required Lenders and (ii) that the Collateral Manager shall be allowed to merge with any entity so long as the Collateral
Manager remains the surviving corporation of such merger, with a net worth not less than the net worth of the Collateral Manager
immediately prior to such merger, and such merger does not result in an Event of Default under Section 6.2(g)(ii). The Collateral
Manager shall give 30 days prior written notice of any merger to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent.


 


(d)          Changes
to Related Documents. If any amendment, consent, waiver or other modification with respect to a Related Document (other than
a Defaulted Loan or an Ineligible Loan) would constitute a Material Modification, then the Collateral Manager shall not cause or
vote in favor of any such Material Modification to occur, if such Material Modification would result in the occurrence of a Default
or Event of Default, without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).

(e)          Certain
Amendments to Administration Agreement and Advisory Agreement. The Collateral Manager shall not agree to any amendment or modification

or the Lenders.

(b)          Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to all rights and remedies specified in this Agreement

to repurchase the Collateral, in whole but not in part, prior to such sale at a purchase price that is equal to the amount of the
Obligations as of the date of such proposed sale. Such right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 4:00 p.m. on the twelfth
Business Day following the Collateral Sale Notice Date.

Manager or their respective Affiliates or assignees may participate in any public or private sale of the Collateral directed by
the Administrative Agent.

a commercially reasonable opportunity to bid for and acquire such Collateral Loan in such sale or disposition).

the benefit of the Secured Parties), but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and, except as permitted by applicable law, without
notice to the Borrower.

of the Borrower and the Collateral Manager hereby agrees that, to the extent the same shall be in the Borrower’s or the Collateral
Manager’s possession, it will hold all Related Documents relating to the Collateral in trust for the Collateral Agent on
behalf of the Secured Parties, and upon request of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of
the Administrative Agent) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or as otherwise provided herein,
promptly deliver the same to the Collateral Agent or its designee (including the Document Custodian). In addition, in accordance
with Article XIV, promptly following its acquisition of any Loan the Borrower or the Collateral Manager (on behalf of the

had not been executed, and (ii) the exercise by any Secured Party of any of its rights hereunder shall not release the Borrower
from any of its duties or obligations under any such contracts or agreements included in the Collateral.


 




    	 	-100-	 



     


    

 


(b)          No
obligation or liability of the Borrower is intended to be assumed by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under
or as a result of this Agreement or the other Facility Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including

any of the Collateral or other instruments or property included in the Collateral;

The Borrower hereby
designates the Collateral Agent as its agent and attorney in fact to prepare and file any UCC-1 financing statement, continuation
statement and all other instruments, and take all other actions, required pursuant to this Section 7.07. Such designation
shall not impose upon the Collateral Agent, or release or diminish, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 7.07
or Section 5.01(c). The Borrower further authorizes the Administrative Agent or its counsel to file, without the Borrower’s
signature, UCC- 1 financing statements that name the Borrower as debtor and the Collateral Agent as secured party and that describe
“all assets in which the debtor now or hereafter has rights” as the Collateral in which the Collateral Agent has a
grant of security hereunder and any amendments or continuation statements that may be necessary or desirable.

number of months as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date) shall not exceed 10% of the of the highest Aggregate Collateral
Balance during such period. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing limitations shall not apply (i) to Warranty Loans or (ii)
where Collateral Loans are sold by the Borrower in connection with a Permitted Securitization.

(d)          Upon
the sale or substitution of a Collateral Loan pursuant to this Article X, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of
the Secured Parties, shall automatically and without further action be deemed to release and transfer to the Borrower, without
recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties in, to and under such Collateral Loan being sold or being substituted for, as applicable. The Collateral Agent, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, shall, at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute such documents and instruments of transfer
as may be prepared by the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, and take other such actions as shall reasonably be requested
by the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower to effect the release and transfer of such Collateral Loan being sold or substituted
for pursuant to this Article X.


 


(e)          For
the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions set forth in Sections 10.01 and 10.04 shall not apply to the sale of Warranty
Loans.


 


Section 10.05.         Additional
Equity Contributions. The BDC may, but shall have no obligation to, at any time or from time to time contribute additional
equity to the Borrower for any purpose, including for the purpose of curing any Default, satisfying any Coverage Test, enabling
the acquisition or sale of any Loan or satisfying any conditions under Section 3.02. Each equity contribution shall
either be made (i) in Cash, (ii) by assignment and contribution of an Eligible Investment and/or (iii) by assignment
and contribution of a Loan. All Cash contributed to the Borrower shall be treated as Principal Proceeds except to the extent that
the Collateral Manager, in its discretion, specifies that such Cash shall constitute Interest Proceeds.

of the Collateral Manager. (a) Duties. The Collateral Manager shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may
be necessary or advisable to service, administer and collect on the Collateral from time to time, all in accordance with Applicable
Law and the Collateral Management Standard. Without limiting the foregoing, the duties of the Collateral Manager shall include
the following:

books, records and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of the Collateral;


 


(v)         promptly
delivering to the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Agent, from time to time, such
information and servicing records (including information relating to its performance under this Agreement) as the Administrative
Agent, each Lender, the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request;


 


(vi)        identifying
each Collateral Loan clearly and unambiguously in its servicing records to reflect that such Collateral Loan is owned by the Borrower
and that the Borrower is pledging a security interest therein to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties)
pursuant to this Agreement;


 


(vii)       notifying
the Administrative Agent and each Lender of any material action, suit, proceeding, dispute, offset, deduction, defense or counterclaim

(viii)      maintaining
the perfected security interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral;


 


(ix)         with

(xi)         directing
the acquisition, sale or substitution of Collateral in accordance with Article X;


 


(xii)        providing
assistance to the Borrower with respect to the purchase of Loans and sale of Collateral Loans;


 


(xiii)       instructing
the Obligors or related the administrative and paying agents under the Related Documents, as applicable, on the Collateral Loans
to make payments directly into the Collection Account;


 


(xiv)      preparing
the Monthly Reports and cooperating with the Collateral Administrator in its duties hereunder in the manner and at the times required
hereunder;


 


(xv)       complying
with such other duties and responsibilities as required of the Collateral Manager by this Agreement; and


 


(xvi)      with
respect to each Loan proposed to be acquired by the Borrower, providing a Loan Checklist and Related Documents to the Document
Custodian (with an electronic copy provided to the Administrative Agent prior to any Advance, the proceeds of which are to be used
to fund all or a portion of such acquisition).


 


It is acknowledged
and agreed that the Borrower possesses only such rights with respect to the enforcement of rights and remedies with respect to
the Collateral Loans and the underlying assets securing such Collateral Loans under the Related Documents as have been transferred
to the Borrower with respect to the related Collateral Loan, and therefore, for all purposes under this Agreement, the Collateral
Manager shall perform its administrative and management duties hereunder only to the extent that, as a lender under the Related
Documents, it has the right to do so.


 


(b)          Exercise
of Remedies Not Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the exercise by the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, each Lender and the Secured Parties of their rights hereunder or any other Facility Document shall not release
the Collateral Manager or the Borrower from any of their duties or responsibilities with respect to the Collateral. The Secured
Parties, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or liability with respect
to any Collateral, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the Collateral Manager hereunder.


 


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

Section 11.03.
Liability of the Collateral Manager; Indemnification of the Collateral Manager Persons.


 


(a)       The
Collateral Manager and any of its Affiliates, employees, shareholders, members, partners, assigns, representatives or agents (each
such individual or entity, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be deemed to include the Administrator and the Advisor, a “Collateral
Manager Person”) shall not be liable to the Borrower, any Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger,
the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Document Custodian or any other Person for any liability, loss (including
amounts paid in settlement), damages, judgments, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, accountant’s
fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of other experts), demands, charges or claim (collectively, the “Damages”)
incurred by reason of any act or omission or alleged act or omission performed or omitted by such Collateral Manager Person, or
for any decrease in the value of the Collateral or any other losses suffered by any party; provided, however,
that a Collateral Manager Person shall be liable for any Damages that arise (i) by reason of any act or omission constituting
bad faith, willful misconduct, or gross negligence by any Collateral Manager Person in the performance of or reckless disregard
of the Collateral Manager’s duties hereunder or (ii) by any breach of the representations and warranties of the Collateral
Manager expressly set forth in this Agreement (each such breach, a “Collateral Manager Breach”).


 


(b)          The
Collateral Manager may rely in good faith upon, and will incur no Damages for relying upon, (i) any authoritative source customarily
used by firms performing services similar to those services provided by the Collateral Manager under this Agreement, and (ii) the
advice of nationally recognized counsel, accountants or other advisors as the Collateral Manager determines reasonably appropriate
in connection with the services provided by the Collateral Manager under this Agreement.


 


(c)          In
no event shall the Collateral Manager be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever
(including but not limited to diminution in value or lost profits) even if the Collateral Manager has been advised of the likelihood
of such damages and regardless of the form of such action.


 


(d)          Each
Collateral Manager Person shall be held harmless and be indemnified by the Borrower for any Damages suffered by virtue of any acts
or omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of the activities of such Collateral Manager Person in the performance of
the obligations of the Collateral Manager under this Agreement or as a result of this Agreement, or the Borrower’s ownership
interest in any portion of the Collateral Loans, except to the extent any such Damage arises as a result of a Collateral Manager
Breach. All amounts payable pursuant to this Section 11.03 shall be payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments.


 




    	 	-117-	 



     


    

 


Section 11.04.         Authorization
of the Collateral Manager. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Manager to take any and all reasonable steps in its
name and on its behalf necessary or desirable in the determination of the Collateral Manager and not inconsistent with the pledge
of the Collateral by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, hereunder, to collect all amounts
due under any and all Collateral, including, without limitation, endorsing its name on checks and other instruments representing
Collections, executing and delivering any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or
discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Collateral and, after the delinquency of any Collateral and
to the extent permitted under and in compliance with Applicable Law, to commence proceedings with respect to enforcing payment
thereof, to the same extent as the Collateral Manager could have done if it owned such Collateral. The Borrower shall furnish the
Collateral Manager (and any successors thereto) with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable
the Collateral Manager to carry out its collateral management duties hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Collateral Manager
to the fullest extent in order to ensure the collectability of the Collateral. In no event shall the Collateral Manager be entitled
to make the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Administrative Agent or any Lender a party
to any litigation without such party’s express prior written consent, or to make the Borrower a party to any litigation (other
than any foreclosure or similar collection procedure) without the Administrative Agent’s consent. Following the occurrence
and continuance of an Event of Default (unless otherwise waived by the Lenders in accordance with Section 16.01), the Administrative
Agent (acting in its sole discretion or at the direction of the Required Lenders) may provide notice to the Collateral Manager
(with a copy to the Collateral Administrator, the Document Custodian and the Collateral Agent) that the Secured Parties are exercising
their control rights with respect to the Collateral in accordance with Section 6.02.


 


Section 11.05.         Realization
Upon Defaulted Loans. The Collateral Manager will use reasonable efforts consistent with the Collateral Management Standard,
this Agreement and the Related Documents to exercise (on behalf of the Borrower and the Secured Parties) available remedies (which
may include liquidating, foreclosing upon or repossessing, as applicable, or otherwise comparably converting the ownership of any
related property) with respect to any Defaulted Loan. The Collateral Manager will comply with the Collateral Management Standard,
the Related Documents and Applicable Law in realizing upon such related property, and employ practices and procedures, including
reasonable efforts, consistent with the Collateral Management Standard and the Related Documents, to enforce all obligations of
Obligors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Manager may cause the sale of any such related property
to the Collateral Manager or its Affiliates for a purchase price equal to the then fair market value thereof, any such sale to
be evidenced by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Manager delivered to the Administrative Agent setting
forth the Collateral Loan, the related property, the sale price of the related property and certifying that such sale price is
the fair market value of such related property. The Collateral Manager will remit to the Collection Account the recoveries received
in connection with the sale or disposition of related property relating to any Defaulted Loan hereunder.


 


Section 11.06.         Collateral
Management Compensation. As compensation for its servicing and collateral management activities hereunder and reimbursement
for its expenses, the Collateral Manager shall be entitled to receive the Collateral Management Fee to the extent of funds available
therefor pursuant to the Priority of Payments, as applicable.


 


Section 11.07.         Payment
of Certain Expenses by Collateral Manager. The Collateral Manager (if the Collateral Manager is an Affiliate of the Borrower)
will be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement, including fees and
disbursements of its independent accountants, Taxes imposed on the Collateral Manager, expenses incurred by the Collateral Manager
in connection with the production of reports pursuant to this Agreement, and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under
this Agreement for the account of the Borrower. The Collateral Manager shall be required to pay such expenses for its own account
and shall not be entitled to any payment therefor other than the Collateral Management Fee.


 




    	 	-118-	 



     


    

 


Section 11.08.         The
Collateral Manager Not to Resign; Assignment. The Collateral Manager shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except upon the Collateral Manager’s determination that the performance of its duties hereunder is or becomes
impermissible under Applicable Law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Collateral Manager shall be evidenced
by an opinion of counsel to such effect delivered to the Administrative Agent and each Lender. No such resignation shall become
effective until a Successor Collateral Manager shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Collateral Manager
in accordance with Section 11.09.


 


Section 11.09.         Appointment
of Successor Collateral Manager. (a)  Upon resignation of the Collateral Manager pursuant to Section 11.08,
the Borrower may (with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders) at any time appoint a successor collateral
manager (the “Successor Collateral Manager”), which, for the avoidance of doubt may be the Administrative Agent
or any Lender, and such Successor Collateral Manager shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable
to the Administrative Agent. Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Collateral Manager Termination Event, the Administrative
Agent may (with the consent of the Required Lenders and, in the case of a Collateral Manager Termination Event arising solely under
Section 6.03(a), with the consent of the BDC) at any time appoint a successor collateral manager, which, for the avoidance
of doubt may be the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and such Successor Collateral Manager shall accept its appointment by a
written assumption in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. No assignment of this Agreement by the Collateral Manager
(including, without limitation, a change in control or management of the Collateral Manager which would be deemed an “assignment”
under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended) shall be made unless such assignment is consented to in writing by the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that nothing
herein shall be construed to restrict the ability of the Administrative Agent to replace the Collateral Manager upon the occurrence
of a Collateral Manager Termination Event pursuant to Section 11.09 or any obligations of the Collateral Manager in connection
with such provisions.


 




    	 	-119-	 



     


    

  


(b)          Upon
its appointment (the “Assumption Date”), the Successor Collateral Manager shall be the successor in all respects
to the Collateral Manager with respect to collateral management functions under this Agreement subject to and in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation Article XIII hereof) and shall be subject to all the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Collateral Manager by the terms and provisions hereof, and all references
in this Agreement to the Collateral Manager shall be deemed to refer to the Successor Collateral Manager; provided
that the Successor Collateral Manager shall not (i) be deemed to have assumed or to become liable for, or otherwise have any
liability for, any duties, responsibilities, actions performed, breaches, defaults, claims, obligations or liabilities of the terminated
Collateral Manager or any other predecessor Collateral Manager arising before the Assumption Date, (ii) have any obligation
to pay any taxes required to be paid by the terminated Collateral Manager or any other predecessor Collateral Manager (provided
that the Successor Collateral Manager shall pay any income taxes for which it is liable), (iii) have any liability for any failure
to perform its duties as Collateral Manager, or any loss or damages arising from such failure, that results from the actions (or
inaction) of the terminated Collateral Manager or any other predecessor Collateral Manager on or before the Assumption Date, (iv)
have any obligation to perform advancing or repurchase obligations, if any, of the Borrower, the terminated Collateral Manager
or any other predecessor Collateral Manager unless it elects to do so in its sole discretion, (v) have any obligation to pay
any of the fees and expenses of any other party to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any Facility Document, (vi) have
any liability with respect to any of the representations and warranties of any predecessor Collateral Manager under this Agreement,
(vii) have any obligation to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights and powers, if, in its reasonable judgment, it shall believe that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to it and (viii) have any obligation
to file or record any financing statements or other documents in order to perfect or continue any security interests contemplated
by this Agreement unless it has been directed by the Administrative Agent to make such filing or recordation. The indemnification
obligations of the Successor Collateral Manager, upon becoming a Successor Collateral Manager, are expressly limited to those arising
on account of its failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances.


 


(c)          The
Collateral Manager agrees to cooperate and use its commercially reasonable efforts in effecting the transition of the responsibilities
and rights of servicing of the Collateral, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Successor Collateral Manager for
the administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the Collateral Manager for deposit, or have been
deposited by the Collateral Manager, or thereafter received with respect to the Collateral and the delivery to the Successor Collateral
Manager in an orderly and timely fashion of all files and records with respect to the Collateral and a computer data file in readable
form containing all information necessary to enable the Successor Collateral Manager to service the Collateral. In addition, the
Collateral Manager agrees to cooperate and use its commercially reasonable efforts in providing, at the expense of the Collateral
Manager, the Successor Collateral Manager with reasonable access (including at the premises of the Collateral Manager) to the employees
of the Collateral Manager, and any and all of the books, records (in electronic or other form) or other information reasonably
requested by it to enable the Successor Collateral Manager to assume the servicing functions hereunder and under this Agreement
and to maintain a list of key servicing personnel and contact information.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
the Successor Collateral Manager’s assumption of, and its agreement to perform and observe, all duties, responsibilities
and obligations of the Collateral Manager under this Agreement arising on and after the Assumption Date, the Successor Collateral
Manager shall not be deemed to have assumed or to become liable for, or otherwise have any liability for, any duties, responsibilities,
obligations or liabilities of the initial Collateral Manager or any other predecessor Collateral Manager arising under the terms
of this Agreement, arising by operation of law or otherwise with respect to the period ending on the Assumption Date, including,
without limitation, any liability for, any duties, responsibilities, obligations or liabilities of the initial Collateral Manager
or any other predecessor Collateral Manager arising on or before the Assumption Date under this Agreement, regardless of when the
liability, duty, responsibility or obligation of the initial Collateral Manager or any other predecessor Collateral Manager therefor
arose, whether provided by the terms of this Agreement arising by operation of law or otherwise, and in no case will the Successor
Collateral Manager have any liability for any failure to perform its duties as Collateral Manager, or any loss or damages arising
from such failure, that results from the actions (or inaction) of the initial Collateral Manager or any other predecessor Collateral
Manager on or before the Assumption Date.


 




    	 	-120-	 



     


    

 


(e)          The
Successor Collateral Manager undertakes to perform only such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement,
it being expressly understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of the Successor Collateral
Manager hereunder.


 


(f)           Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement or any Facility Document to the contrary, the Successor Collateral Manager is authorized to
accept and rely on all of the accounting, records (including computer records) and work of the prior Collateral Manager relating
to the Collateral Loans (collectively, the “Predecessor Collateral Manager Work Product”) without any audit
or other examination thereof, except to the extent that it knows such records or work product to be incorrect, and such Successor
Collateral Manager shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions of the prior Collateral
Manager or any other predecessor Collateral Manager. If any error, inaccuracy, omission or incorrect or non-standard practice or
procedure (collectively, “Errors”) exist in any Predecessor Collateral Manager Work Product and such Errors
make it materially more difficult to service or should cause or materially contribute to the Successor Collateral Manager making
or continuing any Errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), such Successor Collateral Manager shall have no
duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for such Continued Errors; provided that such Successor Collateral
Manager agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent further Continued Errors. In the event that the Successor Collateral
Manager becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, it shall, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile such data as is commercially reasonable to correct such Errors and Continued Errors
and to prevent future Continued Errors. The Successor Collateral Manager shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended
in accordance with the Priority of Payments.


 


(g)          The
Collateral Manager will, upon the request of the Successor Collateral Manager, provide the Successor Collateral Manager with a
power of attorney providing that the Successor Collateral Manager is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf
of the Collateral Manager, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do so or accomplish
all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties
of the Collateral Manager under this Agreement.


 


(h)          The
Successor Collateral Manager shall not be liable for an action or omission to act hereunder, except for its own willful misconduct,
gross negligence or bad faith. Under no circumstances will the Successor Collateral Manager be liable for indirect, special, consequential
or incidental damages, such as loss of use, revenue or profit. In no event shall the Successor Collateral Manager be liable to
the Borrower for any bad debts or other defaults by Obligors.


 




    	 	-121-	 



     


    

 


(i)           Except
as set forth herein, the Successor Collateral Manager shall have no duty to review any information regarding the Collateral Manager,
including any financial statements or the information set forth herein.


 


(j)           If
the Successor Collateral Manager is prevented from fulfilling its obligations hereunder as a result of government actions, regulations,
fires, strikes, accidents, acts of God or other causes beyond the control of such party, the Successor Collateral Manager shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as reasonably possible, and the Successor Collateral Manager’s
obligations shall be suspended for a reasonable time during which such conditions exist.


 


Article XII



The Agents


 


Section 12.01.         Authorization
and Action. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take
such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and, to the extent applicable, the other Facility
Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto, subject to the terms hereof. No Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein
or in the other Facility Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties or obligations or liabilities on the part of such Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other
Facility Document to which such Agent is a party (if any) as duties on its part to be performed or observed. No Agent shall have
or be construed to have any other duties or responsibilities in respect of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the other Facility Documents, no Agent shall be required to exercise
any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting
or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders or, with respect to the Collateral Agent, the
Administrative Agent; provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes such Agent,
in its judgment, to personal liability, cost or expense or which is contrary to this Agreement, the other Facility Documents or
Applicable Law, or would be, in its judgment, contrary to its duties hereunder, under any other Facility Document or under Applicable
Law. Each Lender agrees that in any instance in which the Facility Documents provide that an Agent’s consent may not be unreasonably
withheld, provide for the exercise of such Agent’s reasonable discretion, or provide to a similar effect, it shall not in
its instructions (or, by refusing to provide instruction) to such Agent withhold its consent or exercise its discretion in an unreasonable
manner.


 




    	 	-122-	 



     


    

 


If the Collateral
Agent has been requested or directed by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to take any action pursuant to any provision
of this Agreement or any other Facility Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or such Facility Document in the manner so requested unless it shall have been
provided indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance
with or in performing such request or direction. No provision of this Agreement or any Facility Document shall otherwise be construed
to require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or to take any action that could in its judgment cause it to incur
any cost, expenses or liability, unless it is provided indemnity acceptable to it against any such expenditure, risk, costs, expense
or liability. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action
to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy available to it under this Agreement or any Facility Document or Related Document
unless and until directed by the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent on their behalf).


 


Neither the Collateral
Agent nor any officer, agent or representative thereof shall be personally liable for any action taken by any such person in accordance
with any notice given by the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent on their behalf) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
or any other Facility Document even if, at the time such action is taken by any such person, the Required Lenders or persons purporting
to be the Required Lenders are not entitled to give such notice, except where the Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent has
actual knowledge (without any duty of inquiry or investigation on its part) that such Required Lenders or persons purporting to
be the Required Lenders are not entitled to give such notice. If any dispute or disagreement shall arise as to the allocation of
any sum of money received by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any Facility Document, the Collateral Agent shall have the
right to deliver such sum to a court of competent jurisdiction and therein commence an action for interpleader.


 


If in performing its
duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, it may request written
instructions from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders as to the course of action desired by it. If the Collateral
Agent does not receive such instructions within two Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Agent may, but shall
be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with
instructions received after such two-Business Day period except to the extent it has already, in good faith, taken or committed
itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions.


 


Section 12.02.         Delegation
of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and each other Facility Document by or through agents
or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall
be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.


 




    	 	-123-	 



     


    

 


Section 12.03.         Agent’s
Reliance, Etc. (a) Neither Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents,
except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Agent:
(i) may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel for the Borrower or the Collateral Manager or any
of their Affiliates) and independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes
no warranty or representation to any Secured Party or any other Person and shall not be responsible to any Secured Party or any
Person for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement
or the other Facility Documents; (iii) shall not have any duty to monitor, ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement, the other Facility Documents or any Related Documents
on the part of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager or any other Person or to inspect the property (including the books and records)
of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Secured Party or any other Person for the
due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Collateral, this Agreement, the other
Facility Documents, any Related Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or for the validity,
perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens on the Collateral; and (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect
of this Agreement or any other Facility Document by relying on, acting upon (or by refraining from action in reliance on) any notice,
consent, certificate (including for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrowing Base Certificate), instruction or waiver, report, statement,
opinion, direction or other instrument or writing (which may be delivered by telecopier, email, cable or telex, if acceptable to
it) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. No Agent shall have any liability
to the Borrower or any Lender or any other Person for the Borrower’s, the Collateral Manager’s or any Lender’s,
as the case may be, performance of, or failure to perform, any of their respective obligations and duties under this Agreement
or any other Facility Document.


 


(b)          No
Agent shall be liable for the actions or omissions of any other Agent (including without limitation concerning the application
of funds), or under any duty to monitor or investigate compliance on the part of any other Agent with the terms or requirements
of this Agreement, any Facility Documents or any Related Documents, or their duties thereunder. Each Agent shall be entitled to
assume the due authority of any signatory and genuineness of any signature appearing on any instrument or document it may receive
(including, without limitation, each Notice of Borrowing received hereunder). No Agent shall be liable for any action taken in
good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within the powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or
instruction by which it is governed, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby
for such action (including without limitation for refusing to exercise discretion or for withholding its consent in the absence
of its receipt of, or resulting from a failure, delay or refusal on the part of the Required Lenders to provide, written instruction
to exercise such discretion or grant such consent from the Required Lenders, as applicable). No Agent shall be liable for any error
of judgment made in good faith unless it shall be proven by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Agent was grossly negligent
in ascertaining the relevant facts. Nothing herein or in any Facility Documents or Related Documents shall obligate any Agent to
advance, expend or risk its own funds, or to take any action which in its reasonable judgment may cause it to incur any expense
or financial or other liability for which it is not adequately indemnified. No Agent shall be liable for any indirect, special
or consequential damages (included but not limited to lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood
thereof and regardless of the form of action. No Agent shall be charged with knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually
known to a Responsible Officer of such Agent, or unless and to the extent written notice of such matter is received by such Agent
at its address in accordance with Section 16.02. Any permissive grant of power to an Agent hereunder shall not be construed
to be a duty to act. Neither Agent shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document.
Neither Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or
for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case
of its willful misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard or grossly negligent performance or omission of its duties.

(c)          No
Agent shall be responsible or liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall
include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations imposed after
the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters.


 


(d)          The
delivery of reports, and other documents and information to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Facility Document
or Related Document is for informational purposes only and the Collateral Agent’s receipt of such documents and information
shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein.
The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver the other Facility Documents to which it is a party.
Whether or not expressly stated in such Facility Documents, in performing (or refraining from acting) thereunder, the Collateral
Agent shall have all of the rights, benefits, protections and indemnities that are afforded to it in this Agreement.


 


(e)          Each
Lender acknowledges that except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent has not made any representation
or warranty to it, and that no act by the Collateral Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment
or review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Collateral Agent
to any Secured Party as to any matter. Each Lender represents to the Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Collateral Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower,
and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Facility Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender also
represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not
taking action under this Agreement and the Facility Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform
itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower
and the Collateral Manager. The Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any
credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness
of the Borrower or Collateral Manager which may come into the possession of the Collateral Agent.

Section 12.04.         Indemnification.
Each of the Lenders agrees to indemnify and hold the Agents harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower
pursuant to Section 16.04 or otherwise) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, demands, charges, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of agents, experts
or attorneys) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the
Agents in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Facility Document or any Related Document or any action
taken or omitted by the Agents under this Agreement or any other Facility Document or any Related Document; provided
that no Lender shall be liable to any Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, demands, charges, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct; and provided, further, that no Lender shall be liable to the Collateral Agent for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, demands, charges, costs, expenses or disbursements
(for purposes hereof, “Liabilities”) unless such Liabilities are imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against
the Collateral Agent as a result of any action taken, or not taken, by the Collateral Agent at the direction of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender or Lenders, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (it
being understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise or to honor any of the rights or
powers vested in it by this Agreement at the request or direction of any of the Lenders (or other Persons authorized or permitted
under the terms hereof to make such request or give such direction) pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents,
unless such Lenders shall have provided to the Collateral Agent security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the
costs, expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of agents, experts and attorneys) and Liabilities which
might reasonably be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction, whether such indemnity is provided under this
Section 12.04 or otherwise). The rights of the Agents and obligations of the Lenders under or pursuant to this Section 12.04
shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and the earlier removal or resignation of any Agent hereunder.


 


Section 12.05.         Successor
Agents. Subject to the terms of this Section 12.05, each Agent may, upon thirty days’ notice to the Lenders
and the Borrower, resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. If an Agent shall resign then the Required
Lenders shall appoint a successor agent. If for any reason a successor agent is not so appointed and does not accept such appointment
within thirty days of notice of resignation such Agent may appoint a successor agent. The appointment of any successor Agent shall
be subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided
that the consent of the Borrower to any such appointment shall not be required if (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred
and is continuing or, (ii) if such successor Agent is a Lender or an Affiliate of such Agent or any Lender. Any resignation
of an Agent shall be effective upon the appointment of a successor agent pursuant to this Section 12.05. After the
effectiveness of any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations hereunder and under the other Facility Documents and the provisions of this Article XII shall continue
in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement
and under the other Facility Documents. Any Person (i) into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that
may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or (iii) that may succeed to the
corporate trust properties and assets of the Collateral Agent substantially as a whole, shall be the successor to the Collateral
Agent under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement.

Section 12.06.         Administrative
Agent’s Capacity as a 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 Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.


 


Section 12.07.
Compensation of Collateral Agent. As compensation for its Collateral Agent activities hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall
be entitled to fees pursuant to the Collateral Agent, Document Custodian, Collateral Administrator and Intermediary Fee Letter
and any other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees,
costs and expenses of agents, experts and attorneys) and indemnity amounts payable by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager to
the Collateral Agent under the Facility Documents.

Section 14.02.         Duties
of Document Custodian.


 


(a)          Appointment.
Each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent hereby designate and appoint the Document Custodian to act as its agent and hereby
authorizes the Document Custodian to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are
expressly granted to the Document Custodian by this Agreement. The Document Custodian hereby accepts such agency appointment to
act as Document Custodian pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, until its resignation or removal as Document Custodian pursuant
to the terms hereof.


 


(b)          Duties.
On or before the Funding Effective Date, and until its removal pursuant to Section 14.5, the Document Custodian shall
perform, on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations:


 


(i)          The
Document Custodian shall take and retain custody of the Related Documents delivered to it by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager
(on behalf of the Borrower) pursuant to Section 7.05 in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, all
for the benefit of the Secured Parties and subject to the Lien thereon in favor of the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured
Parties. Within five Business Days of its receipt of the Related Documents and Loan Checklist (the “Review Period”),
the Document Custodian shall review the Related Documents delivered to it to confirm that (A) if the Loan Checklist or electronic
files delivered per the following sentence indicate that any document must contain an original signature, each such document appears
to bear the original signature, or if the Loan Checklist or electronic file indicates that such document may contain a copy of
a signature, that such copies appear to bear a reproduction of such signature and (B) based on a review of the applicable
note, the related initial principal loan balance when entered into or obtained by the Borrower, loan identification number and
Obligor name with respect to such Collateral Loan is referenced on the related Loan Checklist or electronic file and does not appear
to be a duplicate Collateral Loan (such items (A) through (B) collectively, the “Review Criteria”). In
order to facilitate the foregoing review by the Document Custodian, in connection with each delivery of Related Documents for a
Collateral Loan hereunder to the Document Custodian, the Collateral Manager shall provide to the Document Custodian an electronic
file (in EXCEL or a comparable format acceptable to the Document Custodian) or the related Loan Checklist that contains a list
of all Related Documents for such Loan and whether they require original signatures, the loan identification number and the name
of the Obligor and the initial principal loan balance when entered into or obtained by the Borrower with respect to each related
Collateral Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Document Custodian’s obligation to review the Related
Documents shall be limited to reviewing such Related Documents based on the information provided on the Loan Checklist or electronic
file as the case may be. In receiving any Related Documents hereunder, and in maintaining any listing or providing any report or
communication with respect to the Related Documents held hereunder, the Document Custodian shall be required only to review such
Related Documents in accordance with the Review Criteria. Within one Business Day after the end of the Review Period, the Document
Custodian shall notify the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in writing of any
Related Documents listed on the Loan Checklist not included in the Related Documents so delivered to the Document Custodian and
any other exceptions to the Review Criteria substantially in the form of Exhibit L attached hereto (the “Custodial
Certificate”). After the Document Custodian’s delivery of the Custodial Certificate, the Collateral Manager shall
have ten Business Days to correct any non-compliance with any Review Criteria. In addition, if requested in writing in the form
of Exhibit E-1 by the Collateral Manager and approved by the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days of the Document
Custodian’s delivery of such Custodial Certificate, the Document Custodian shall return the Related Documents for any Collateral
Loan which fails to satisfy a Review Criteria to the Borrower. Other than the foregoing, the Document Custodian shall not have
any responsibility for reviewing any Related Documents.


 




    	 	-128-	 



     


    

 


(ii)         In
taking and retaining custody of the Related Documents, the Document Custodian shall be deemed to be acting as the custodian of
the Secured Parties, and has no instructions to hold any Related Documents for the benefit of any Person other than the Secured
Parties; provided that the Document Custodian makes no representations as to the existence, perfection or priority of any
Lien on the Related Documents or the instruments therein; and provided further that the Document Custodian’s duties
as custodian shall be limited to those expressly contemplated herein. In so taking and retaining custody of the Related Documents,
the Document Custodian shall be deemed to be acting for the purpose of perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest
therein under the UCC.


 


(iii)        The
Document Custodian shall maintain continuous custody of all items in its possession in secure facilities in accordance with customary
standards for such custody and shall reflect in its records the interest of the Secured Parties therein. Each Related Document
which comes into the possession of the Document Custodian (other than documents delivered electronically) shall be maintained in
fire-resistant vaults or cabinets at the office of the Document Custodian specified in Schedule 5 or at such other offices
as shall be specified to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Collateral Manager in a written notice at least thirty
(30) days prior to such change. Each Related Document shall be marked with an appropriate identifying label and maintained in such
manner so as to permit retrieval and access by the Document Custodian and the Administrative Agent. The Document Custodian shall
keep the Related Documents clearly segregated from any other documents or instruments in its files.


 




    	 	-129-	 



     


    

 


(iv)        On
each Payment Date, the Document Custodian shall provide a written report to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Manager
(in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) identifying each Collateral Loan for which it holds Related Documents, the non-complying
Collateral Loans and the applicable Review Criteria that any non-complying Collateral Loan fails to satisfy.


 


(v)         In
performing its duties, the Document Custodian shall use a similar degree of care and attention as it employs with respect to similar
collateral that it holds as Document Custodian for others.


 


(vi)        In
no event shall the Document Custodian be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever
(including but not limited to lost profits) even if the Document Custodian has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and
regardless of the form of such action.


 


(vii)       Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, delivery of the Collateral Loans acquired by the Borrower which constitute Noteless Loans or Participations
or which are otherwise not evidenced by a “security” or “instrument” as defined in Section 8-102 and Section
9-102(a)(47) of the UCC, respectively, shall be made by delivery to the Document Custodian (as part of the Related Documents) of
(i) in the case of a Noteless Loan, a copy of the loan register with respect to such Noteless Loan evidencing registration of such
Collateral Loan on the books and records of the applicable Obligor or bank agent to the name of the Borrower (or its nominee) or
a copy (which may be a facsimile copy) of an assignment agreement in favor of the Borrower as assignee, and (ii) in the case of
a Participation, a copy of the related participation agreement. Any duty on the part of the Document Custodian with respect to
the custody of such Collateral Loans shall be limited to the exercise of reasonable care by the Document Custodian in the physical
custody of any such Related Documents delivered to it, including any related instrument, security, credit agreement, assignment
agreement and/or other agreements or documents, if any (collectively, “Financing Documents”), that may be delivered
to it as part of the Related Documents.


 


(viii)      The
Document Custodian may assume the genuineness of any such Financing Document it may receive and the genuineness and due authority
of any signatures appearing thereon, and shall be entitled to assume that each such Financing Document it may receive is what it
purports to be. If an original “security” or “instrument” as defined in Section 8-102 and Section 9-102(a)(47)
of the UCC, respectively, is or shall be or become available with respect to any Collateral Loan to be held by the Document Custodian
under this Agreement, it shall be the sole responsibility of the Borrower to make or cause delivery thereof to the Document Custodian,
and the Document Custodian shall not be under any obligation at any time to determine whether any such original security or instrument
has been or is required to be issued or made available in respect of any Collateral Loan or to compel or cause delivery thereof
to the Document Custodian.


 




    	 	-130-	 



     


    

 


(ix)         With
respect to the documents comprising each Related Document, the Document Custodian shall (i) act exclusively as Document Custodian
for the Secured Parties, (ii) hold all documents constituting such Related Document received by it for the exclusive use and
benefit of the Secured Parties and (iii) make disposition thereof only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or with
written instructions furnished by the Administrative Agent; provided, that in the event of a conflict between the
terms of this Agreement and the written instructions of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s written instructions
shall control.


 


(x)          The Document Custodian
shall accept only written instructions of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, Collateral Agent, Collateral Manager or Administrative
Agent concerning the use, handling and disposition of the Related Documents.


 


(xi)         In
the event that (i) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, any Agent, the Collateral Manager, the
Document Custodian or the Collateral Agent shall be served by a third party with any type of levy, attachment, writ or court order
with respect to any Related Document or a document included within a Related Document or (ii) a third party shall institute
any court proceeding by which any Related Document or a document included within a Related Document shall be required to be delivered
otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the party receiving such service shall promptly deliver or
cause to be delivered to the other parties to this Agreement (to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law) copies of all court
papers, orders, documents and other materials concerning such proceedings. The Document Custodian shall, to the extent permitted
by Applicable Law, continue to hold and maintain all the Related Documents that are the subject of such proceedings pending a final,
nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction permitting or directing disposition thereof. Upon final determination
of such court, the Document Custodian shall dispose of such Related Document or a document included within such Related Document
as directed by the Administrative Agent, which shall give a direction consistent with such determination. The reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses of the Document Custodian incurred as a result of such proceedings shall be borne by the Borrower and paid
in accordance with Section 16.04.


 




    	 	-131-	 



     


    

 


(xii)        The
Document Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the request or direction
of any Secured Party, to the extent that this Agreement provides such Secured Party the right to so direct the Document Custodian,
or the Administrative Agent. The Document Custodian shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter hereunder, including
a Collateral Manager Termination Event, unless a Responsible Officer of the Document Custodian has knowledge of such matter or
written notice thereof is received by the Document Custodian.


 


Section 14.03.         Merger
or Consolidation. Any Person (i) into which the Document Custodian may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may result
from any merger or consolidation to which the Document Custodian shall be a party, or (iii) that may succeed to the properties
and assets of the Document Custodian substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement
of assumption to perform every obligation of the Document Custodian hereunder, shall be the successor to the Document Custodian
under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement.


 


Section 14.04.         Document
Custodian Compensation and Indemnification. As compensation for its Document Custodian activities hereunder, the Document
Custodian shall be entitled to fees pursuant to Collateral Agent, Document Custodian, Collateral Administrator and Intermediary
Fee Letter. The Document Custodian’s entitlement to receive the fees under the Collateral Agent, Document Custodian, Collateral
Administrator and Intermediary Fee Letter shall cease on the earlier to occur of: (i) its removal as Document Custodian and
appointment and acceptance by the successor custodian pursuant to Section 14.05 and the Document Custodian has ceased
to hold any Related Documents or (ii) the termination of this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement or earlier resignation
or removal of the Document Custodian, the Borrower shall pay to the Document Custodian such compensation, and shall likewise reimburse
the Document Custodian for its costs, expenses and disbursements, as may be due as of the date of such termination, resignation
or removal, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, the Document Custodian shall be entitled to all of the benefits of
the indemnification provisions to the extent and in the manner set forth in Section 16.04. All indemnifications in favor
of the Document Custodian under this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement, or any resignation or removal
of the Document Custodian. The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse to the Document Custodian upon its request from time to time
all costs, disbursements, advances, and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of agents, experts and legal counsel)
incurred, in connection with the preparation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, or in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby or performance by the Document Custodian of its duties and services under this Agreement (including
costs and expenses of any action deemed necessary by the Document Custodian to collect any amounts owing to it under this Agreement).


 


Section 14.05.         Document
Custodian Resignation and Removal.


 


(a)          The
Document Custodian may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative Agent by notice given in writing to the Document
Custodian and the Collateral Agent (the “Document Custodian Termination Notice”); provided
that notwithstanding its receipt of a Document Custodian Termination Notice, the Document Custodian shall continue to act in such
capacity (and shall continue to be entitled to receive fees) until a successor Document Custodian has been appointed, has agreed
to act as Document Custodian hereunder, and has received all Related Documents held by the previous Document Custodian. Any such
appointment shall be accomplished by written instrument and one original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be
delivered to the Document Custodian and the successor custodian, with a copy delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower,
the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Manager.

(b)          The
Document Custodian shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon (a)  written notice to
the Borrower, the Collateral Manager and the Administrative Agent, or (b) the Document Custodian’s determination that
(i) the performance of its duties hereunder is or becomes impermissible under Applicable Law and (ii) there is no reasonable
action that the Document Custodian could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under Applicable Law.
Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Document Custodian shall be evidenced as to clause (i) above
by an opinion of counsel to such effect delivered to the Administrative Agent. No such resignation shall become effective until
a successor custodian shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Document Custodian hereunder. Promptly after
receipt of notice of the Document Custodian’s resignation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly appoint a successor custodian
by written instrument, in duplicate, copies of which instrument shall be delivered to the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, each
Agent, the resigning Document Custodian and to the successor custodian.


 


(c)          In
the event of any such resignation or removal, the Document Custodian shall, no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt
of notice of the successor custodian, transfer to the successor custodian, as directed in writing by the Administrative Agent,
all the Related Documents being administered under this Agreement. The cost of the shipment of Related Documents arising out of
the resignation of the Document Custodian pursuant to Section 14.05(b) shall be at the expense of the Document Custodian.
Any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket cost of shipment arising out of the removal or discharge of the Document Custodian
pursuant to Section 14.05(a) shall be at the expense of the Borrower and paid in accordance with Section 16.04.


 


Section 14.06.         Limitation
on Liability.


 


(a)          The
Document Custodian may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice,
letter, telegram or other document delivered to it and that in good faith it reasonably believes to be genuine and that has been
signed by the proper party or parties. The Document Custodian may rely conclusively on and shall be fully protected in acting upon
(a) the written instructions of any designated officer of the Administrative Agent or (b) the verbal instructions of
the Administrative Agent.

(b)          The
Document Custodian may consult counsel satisfactory to it and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete

with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The Document Custodian may exercise any of its rights or powers hereunder or perform
any of its duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and the Document Custodian shall not be responsible
for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed hereunder with due care by it. Each of the protections,
reliances, indemnities and immunities offered to the Collateral Agent in Article XII shall be afforded to the Document Custodian.


 


(c)          The
Document Custodian shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith,
or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, in the case of its willful misconduct, bad faith or grossly negligent performance or
omission of its duties and in the case of its grossly negligent performance of its duties in taking and retaining custody of the
Related Documents.


 


(d)          The
Document Custodian makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this
Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability
of the Collateral, and will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly
set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral. The Document Custodian shall not be obligated to take any action hereunder
that might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory
to it.


 


(e)          The
Document Custodian shall have no duties or responsibilities except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth
in this Agreement and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Document Custodian.

Manager, the Borrower or any other Person, except by reason of acts or omissions by the Collateral Administrator constituting bad
faith, willful misfeasance, fraud, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the Collateral Administrator’s duties hereunder.

Collateral Administrator may rely conclusively on any notice, certificate or other document (including, without limitation, telecopier
or other electronically transmitted instructions, documents or information) furnished to it hereunder and reasonably believed by
it in good faith to be genuine. The Collateral Administrator shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably
believed by it to be within the discretion or powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction
by which it is governed hereunder, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby
for such action. The Collateral Administrator shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in
any certificate, report or other document; provided, however, that, if the form thereof is prescribed
by this Agreement, the Collateral Administrator shall examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements
hereof. The Collateral Administrator shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to a Responsible

because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of god, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared),
terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action (including any laws, ordinances, regulations) or the like that delay, restrict
or prohibit the providing of services by the Collateral Administrator as completed by this Agreement. It is expressly acknowledged

hereunder (including recalculations to be performed in respect of the matters contemplated hereby) shall be based upon, and in
reliance upon, data and information provided to it by the Collateral Manager (and/or the Borrower) with respect to the Collateral,
and the Collateral Administrator shall have no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any such information or data
provided to it by such persons. Nothing herein shall impose or imply any duty or obligation on the part of the Collateral Administrator
to verify, investigate or audit any such information or data, or to determine or monitor on an independent basis whether any obligor
under the Collateral is in default or in compliance with the underlying documents governing or securing such securities, from time
to time, the role of the Collateral Administrator hereunder being solely to perform certain mathematical computations and data
comparisons and to provide certain reports and other deliveries, as provided herein.

officers, shareholders, agents and employees for and from any and all losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges, costs, expenses

or removal of the Collateral Administrator.

herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to determine independently the correct characterization or categorization of
any item of Collateral, or to evaluate or verify the Collateral Manager’s characterization of any item of Collateral including
whether any item of Collateral is a Defaulted Loan, Ineligible Loan or Equity Security, any such determination being based exclusively
upon notification the Collateral Administrator receives from the Collateral Manager and nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral
Administrator to review or examine any underlying instrument or contract evidencing, governing or guaranteeing or securing any
Collateral Loan in order to verify, confirm, audit or otherwise determine any characteristic thereof.


 


(e)          Without
limiting the generality of any terms of this Section 15.03, the Collateral Administrator shall have no liability for any
failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the Collateral Manager or Borrower (or Collateral Agent, if not the same Person
as the Collateral Administrator) to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Administrator,
or otherwise on the part of any such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement or this Agreement and shall have no liability
for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance on the Collateral Administrator’s part of any of its duties

of a successor to serve as collateral administrator hereunder and shall be indemnified pursuant to Section 15.03(c) for
the reasonable costs and expenses thereof.

Agreement would be in conflict with or in violation of its duties or obligations as Collateral Agent under this Agreement or (c)
upon at least sixty days’ prior written notice of termination to the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the following events and the failure to cure such event within such sixty day notice period:
(i) failure of the Borrower to pay any of the amounts specified in Section 15.02 hereof within sixty days after such amount
is due pursuant to Section 15.02 hereof (to the extent not already paid to Collateral Administrator pursuant to Section
9.01) or (ii) failure of the Borrower to provide any indemnity payment to Collateral Administrator pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, as the case may be, within sixty days of the receipt by the Borrower of the written request for such payment or
reimbursement (to the extent not already paid Collateral Administrator pursuant to Section 9.01).


 


(e)          Any
corporation into which the Collateral Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Administrator shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Collateral Administrator, shall be the successor
of the Collateral Administrator hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of
the parties hereto.


 


Section 15.05.         Representations
and Warranties of the Collateral Administrator. The Collateral Administrator hereby represents and warrants to the Collateral
Manager and the Borrower as follows:


 


(i)          The
Collateral Administrator is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the United States of America and has full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all
obligations required hereunder and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize this Agreement on the terms and conditions
hereof, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all obligations required hereunder. No consent of any other
person including, without limitation, stockholders or other equity holder and creditors of the Collateral Administrator, and no
license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with,
any governmental authority, except those that have been obtained, is required by the Collateral Administrator in connection with
this Agreement or the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement and the obligations imposed
upon it hereunder. When executed and delivered by the Collateral Administrator and the other parties hereto, this Agreement will
constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Collateral Administrator enforceable against the Collateral Administrator
in accordance with its terms subject, as to enforcement, (a) to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting
generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights as such laws would apply in the event of any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency
or similar event applicable to the Collateral Administrator and (b) to general equitable principles (whether enforceability
of such principles is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).


 




    	 	-145-	 



     


    

 


(ii)         The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the documents and instruments required hereunder will not violate any
provision of any existing law or regulation binding on the Collateral Administrator, or any order, judgment, award or decree of
any court, arbitrator or governmental authority binding on the Collateral Administrator, or the articles of association or by-laws,
as amended, of the Collateral Administrator or of any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement, instrument or undertaking
to which the Collateral Administrator is a party or by which the Collateral Administrator or any of its assets may be bound, the
violation of which would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets or financial condition of the Collateral
Administrator and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any lien on any of its property, assets or revenues
pursuant to the provisions of any such mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement, instrument or undertaking the creation
or imposition of which would have a material adverse effect on the business operations, assets or financial condition of the Collateral
Administrator.


 


Section 15.06.         Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the Collateral
Administrator; provided, however, that the Collateral Administrator may not assign its rights and obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and the Borrower,
except that U.S. Bank as Collateral Administrator may delegate to, employ as agent, or otherwise cause any duty or obligation hereunder
to be performed by, any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Association or its successors without
the prior written consent of the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and the Borrower (provided
that in such event U.S. Bank as Collateral Administrator shall remain responsible for the performance of its duties as Collateral
Administrator hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Administrator consents to the pledge of its rights under
this Agreement by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent, as provided in the granting language set forth in Section 7.01 of
this Agreement.


 


Section 15.07.         Joint
Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement (i) shall constitute the Borrower, the Collateral Administrator, the Lenders,
the Agents and the Collateral Manager as members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business
or other separate entity, (ii) shall be construed to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) shall be deemed
to confer on any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of the others.

Article XVI



Miscellaneous


 


Section 16.01.         No
Waiver; Modifications in Writing. (a) No failure or delay on the part of any Secured Party exercising any right, power
or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Any waiver of any provision
of this Agreement, and any consent to any departure by any party to this Agreement from the terms of any provision of this Agreement,
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower
in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.


 


(b)          No
amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed by the Borrower, the Collateral
Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, provided that:


 


(i)          any
Fundamental Amendment shall also require the written consent of all Lenders; and


 


(ii)         no
such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, the
Document Custodian or the Collateral Administrator hereunder without the prior written consent of such Agent, Document Custodian
or Collateral Administrator, as the case may be.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent
hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender
may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any
Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification
requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than
other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.


 


Section 16.02.         Notices,
Etc. Except where telephonic instructions are authorized herein to be given, all notices, demands, instructions and other communications
required or permitted to be given to or made upon any party hereto shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent

of this Agreement on the day that such writing is received by the intended recipient thereof in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 16.02. Unless otherwise specified in a notice sent or delivered in accordance with the foregoing provisions
of this Section 16.02, notices, demands, instructions and other communications in writing shall be given to or made upon

in Schedule 5, and, in the case of telephonic instructions or notices, by calling the telephone number or numbers indicated
for such party in Schedule 5.


 




    	 	-147-	 



     


    

 


Section 16.03.         Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of an obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made, in accordance
with this Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and expenses) with respect thereto, excluding: (A)
any taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) taxes, capital taxes, or similar taxes in lieu thereof, branch
profits taxes and franchise taxes, in each case imposed (i) in the case of any Secured Party, by the jurisdiction (or any
political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Secured Party is organized or in which its principal office is located,
or in the case of any Lender, in which its applicable lending office is located, or (ii) in the case of any Secured Party
or any Lender, by any jurisdiction by reason of such Secured Party or such Lender having any other present or former connection
with such jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely from entering into, receiving any payment under or enforcing its
rights under this Agreement or any other Facility Document); (B) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA; and (C)
any interest, penalties and additions to tax attributable to any of the foregoing (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower
shall be required by law (or by the interpretation or administration thereof) to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum
payable by it hereunder or under any other Facility Document to any Secured Party, (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall
be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section 16.03) such Secured Party 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 timely pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. The obligation of the Borrower to make any additional
payments in respect of any deduction or withholding of Taxes as set forth in this Section 16.03 shall be subject to the
Secured Party’s compliance with the conditions in Section 16.03(g), (h), or (j).


 


(b)          In
addition, the Borrower agrees (and, to the extent the funds available for by the Borrower therefor on any Payment Date are insufficient
to pay such amounts in full, the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, will shall pay such amounts), to timely pay any
present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from
any payment made by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Facility Document or from the execution, delivery or registration
of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or under any other Facility Document, except any such taxes that are imposed with
respect to an assignment other than an assignment to comply with Section 16.03(h) (hereinafter referred to as “Other
Taxes”).


 


(c)          The
Borrower agrees to indemnify each of the Secured Parties for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 16.03) paid by any Secured Party in
respect of the Borrower, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted. Payments by Borrower
or the Collateral Manager pursuant to this indemnification shall be made promptly following the date the Secured Party makes written
demand therefor, which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate describing in reasonable detail the basis thereof. Such certificate
shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error.


 




    	 	-148-	 



     


    

 


(d)          The
Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Secured Party, or pay any additional amounts to any Secured Party, in respect of
United States federal withholding tax or United States federal backup withholding tax to the extent that (i) the obligation to
withhold amounts with respect to United States federal withholding or backup withholding tax imposed pursuant to a law in effect
on the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement (or acquired its interest herein) or, with respect to payments to a new
lending office designated by a Lender (a “New Lending Office”), the date such Lender designated such New Lending
Office with respect to an Advance; provided that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent the indemnity
payment or additional amounts any Secured Party would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not
exceed the indemnity payment or additional amounts that the transferor Lender immediately before the Secured Party became a party
hereto or the Lender making the designation of such New Lending Office immediately before changing its lending office, if any,
would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such transfer or designation, or (ii) the obligation to pay such additional
amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Secured Party to comply with paragraphs (g), (j), or (h) below.


 


(e)          Promptly
after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to each Agent the original or a certified copy
of a receipt issued by the relevant Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof (or other evidence of payment as may be reasonably
satisfactory to such Agent).


 


(f)          If
any payment is made by the Borrower (or the Collateral Manager on its behalf) to or for the account of any Secured Party after
deduction for or on account of any Taxes or Other Taxes, and an indemnity payment or additional amounts are paid by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 16.03, then, if such Secured Party in its sole discretion determines that it is entitled to a refund
of such Taxes or Other Taxes, such Secured Party shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the
amount of such refund, apply for such refund and reimburse to the Borrower (or the Collateral Manager, as applicable) such amount
of any refund received (net of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred, including taxes) as such Secured Party shall determine
in its sole discretion to be attributable to the relevant Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that in the event that such
Secured Party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority, the Borrower agrees to return the refund to such
Secured Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.03(f), in no event will the indemnified party
be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 16.03(f) the payment of which would place
the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax giving
rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts
with respect to such Tax had never been paid.

(g)          Each
Secured Party and each Participant that is a U.S. person as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “U.S.
Person”) hereby agrees that it shall, no later than the Funding Effective Date or, in the case of a Secured Party or
a Participant which becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 16.06, the date upon which such Secured Party becomes a party
hereto or participant herein, deliver to the Borrower and each Agent, if applicable, two accurate, complete and signed copies of
U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or successor form, certifying that such Secured Party or Participant is on the date of delivery
thereof entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Secured Party or Participant that is not a U.S.
Person (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, no later than the date on which such Secured Party becomes a party hereto
or a participant herein pursuant to Section 16.06, deliver to the Borrower and each Agent two properly completed and duly
executed copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY or any subsequent versions thereof
or successors thereto, in each case claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect
to payments of interest hereunder. In addition, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding
tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, such Non-U.S. Lender provides the appropriate certification pursuant to Exhibit
I that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, is not a 10-percent
shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled
foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code), and such Non-U.S. Lender
agrees that it shall notify the Borrower and each Agent in the event such certification is no longer accurate. Such forms shall
be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement or participant herein and on or
before the date, if any, such Non-U.S. Lender designates a New Lending Office. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver
such forms as promptly as practicable after receipt of a written request therefor from the Borrower or an Agent. Any Non-U.S. Lender
shall also, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and each Agent (in such number of copies as
shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or its Agent), executed originals of any other form
prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or each Agent to determine
the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each Secured Party agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower
in writing of its legal inability to do so.


 


(h)          If
any Secured Party requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to such Secured Party or any taxing Governmental Authority
for the account of such Secured Party or to indemnify such Secured Party pursuant to this Section 16.03, then such Secured
Party shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such Lender determines, in its
sole discretion, that such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section
16.03 in the future and (ii) would not subject such Secured Party to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Secured Party. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender
in connection with any such designation or assignment.


 




    	 	-150-	 



     


    

 


(i)           Nothing
in this Section 16.03 shall be construed to require any Secured Party to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.


 


(j)           Compliance
with FATCA. Each Secured Party shall deliver to the Borrower and each Agent, as applicable, at the time or times prescribed
by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or an Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law
or FATCA (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested
by the Borrower or an Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and each Agent, as applicable, to comply with their obligations
under FATCA and to determine that such Secured Party has complied with such Secured Party’s obligations under FATCA or to
determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 16.03(j), “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Each Secured Party agrees that if any form or certification
it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or
promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.


 


Section 16.04.         Costs
and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower agrees to promptly pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of the Agents, the Document Custodian, the Collateral Administrator and the other Lenders in connection with the preparation,
review, negotiation, reproduction, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents, including the reasonable
fees and disbursements of outside counsel for each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator,
the Document Custodian and the other Lenders, UCC filing fees and all other related fees and expenses in connection therewith;
and in connection with any modification or amendment of this Agreement or any other Facility Document; provided that
the legal fees, charges and expenses of outside counsel to the Administrative Agent incurred prior to the Closing Date with respect
to the foregoing shall not, in the aggregate, exceed $200,000. Further, the Borrower shall pay on demand (A) all reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of outside legal counsel,
auditors, accountants, consultants or appraisers or other professional advisors and agents engaged by the Agents and the Lenders)
incurred by the Agents, the Document Custodian, the Collateral Administrator and the Lenders in the preparation, execution, delivery,
filing, recordation, administration, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Facility Document or any consent,
amendment, waiver or other modification relating thereto, (B) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of
creating, perfecting, releasing or enforcing the Collateral Agent's security interests in the Collateral, including filing and
recording fees, expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search fees, and title insurance premiums, and (C) after the occurrence
of any Event of Default, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Agents, the Document Custodian,
the Collateral Administrator and the Lenders in connection with the preservation, collection, foreclosure or enforcement of the
Collateral subject to the Facility Documents or any interest, right, power or remedy of the Agents and the Lenders or in connection
with the collection or enforcement of any of the Obligations or the proof, protection, administration or resolution of any claim
based upon the Obligations in any insolvency proceeding, including all reasonable fees and disbursements of outside attorneys,
accountants, auditors, consultants, appraisers and other professionals engaged by the Agents and the Lenders; provided
that in each case, there shall be a single primary counsel to (i) the Collateral Agent, the Document Custodian and the Collateral
Administrator and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and a single local counsel to (i) the Collateral Agent, the Document
Custodian and the Collateral Administrator and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in each relevant jurisdiction (unless
there is an actual or perceived conflict of interest or the availability of different claims or defenses among the Agents and the
Lenders, in which case each such similarly conflicted group of Persons may retain its own counsel). The undertaking in this Section
shall survive repayment of the Obligations, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the
Related Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the Collateral Agent. Without prejudice
to its rights hereunder, the expenses and the compensation for the services of the Collateral Agent are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under any applicable bankruptcy law.

(b)          The
Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Secured Party and each of their Affiliates and the respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, managers of, and any Person controlling any of, the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Party”)
from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, expenses, penalties, actions, suits, judgments
and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel)
that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with
or by reason of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, administration of or otherwise arising out of or incurred in
connection with this Agreement, any other Facility Document, any Related Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby
(and regardless of whether or not any such transactions are consummated) (collectively, the “Liabilities”),
including any such Liability that is incurred or arises out of or in connection with, or by reason of any one or more of the following:
(i) preparation for a defense of any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with
this Agreement, any other Facility Document, any Related Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) any
breach of any covenant by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager contained in any Facility Document; (iii) any representation
or warranty made or deemed made by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager contained in any Facility Document or in any certificate,
statement or report delivered in connection therewith is false or misleading; (iv) any failure by the Borrower or the Collateral
Manager to comply with any Applicable Law or contractual obligation binding upon it; (v) any failure to vest, or delay in
vesting, in the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a perfected security interest in all of the Collateral
free and clear of all Liens; (vi) any action or omission, not expressly authorized by the Facility Documents, by the Borrower
or any Affiliate of the Borrower which has the effect of reducing or impairing the Collateral or the rights of the Agents or the
Secured Parties with respect thereto; (vii) the failure to file, or any delay in filing, financing statements, continuation
statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other Applicable Law with
respect to any Collateral, whether at the time of any Advance or at any subsequent time; (viii) any dispute, claim, offset
or defense (other than the discharge in bankruptcy of an Obligor) of an Obligor to the payment with respect to any Collateral (including,
without limitation, a defense based on any Collateral Loan (or the Related Documents evidencing such Collateral Loan) not being
a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim
resulting from any related property; (ix) the commingling of Collections on the Collateral at any time with other funds; (x) any
failure by the Borrower to give reasonably equivalent value to the applicable seller, in consideration for the transfer by such
seller to the Borrower of any item of Collateral or any attempt by any Person to void or otherwise avoid any such transfer under
any statutory provision or common law or equitable action, including, without limitation, any provision of the Bankruptcy Code;
(xi) the failure of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager or any of their respective agents or representatives to remit to
the Collection Account, within one Business Day of receipt, Collections on the Collateral Loans remitted to the Borrower,
the Collateral Manager or any such agent or representative as provided in this Agreement; and (xii) any Default or Event of
Default; provided, that (x) the Borrower shall not be liable (A) for any Liability or losses arising due to the deterioration
in the credit quality or market value of the Collateral Loans or other Collateral hereunder to the extent that such credit quality
or market value was not misrepresented in any material respect by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or (B) to the extent any
such Liability is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from such
Indemnified Party’s fraud, bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; (C) to the extent any such Liability arises
out of a claim or counterclaim brought by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates against an Indemnified Party for a material breach
of such Indemnified Party’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Facility Document (which, in the case of any material
breach with respect to the Collateral Agent, Collateral Administrator or Collateral Custodian (the “Collateral Agent Parties”)
arises as a result of its gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith), if the Borrower or such other Affiliate has
obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim or counterclaim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
or (D) to the extent any such Liability arises from disputes solely between or among the Indemnified Parties not relating to or
in connection with acts or omissions by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and, with respect to the Collateral Agent Parties,
such disputes do not relate to this Agreement or other Facility Documents (it being understood that in the event of such dispute
relating to or in connection with acts or omissions by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates
involving a claim or proceeding brought against the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees,
partners, representatives, advisors and agents and each of their respective heirs, successors and assigns (each, a “Related
Party” and, in each case, acting in its capacity as such) by the other Indemnified Parties, the Administrative Agent
or such Related Party, as applicable, shall be entitled (subject to the other limitations and exceptions set forth in this proviso)
to the benefit of such indemnification) and (y) no Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder shall, without the prior
written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party;
provided, however that in no event will such Indemnified Party have any liability for any special, exemplary,
indirect, punitive or consequential damages in connection with or as a result of such Indemnified Party’s activities related
to this Agreement or any Facility Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein
or therein; provided, further, this Section 16.04(b) shall not apply with respect to taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges and withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and expenses) with respect thereto,
or additional sums described in Sections 2.09, 2.10 or 16.03, other than any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges
and withholdings that represent Liabilities arising from a claim under any Section of this Agreement other than Sections 2.09,
2.10 or 16.03.

Section 16.05.         Execution
in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts,
each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken

Section 16.06.         Assignability.
(a) Each Lender may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (in each case not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), assign to an assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion
of its outstanding Advances or interests therein owned by it, together with ratable portions of its Commitment); provided
that 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 ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided further that:


 


(i)          the
Borrower’s consent to any such assignment shall not be required if the assignee is a Permitted Assignee with respect
to such assignor;


 


(ii)         the
Borrower’s consent to any such assignment pursuant to this Section 16.06(a) shall not be required if an Event of Default
shall have occurred and is continuing (and not been waived by the Lenders in accordance with Section 16.01);


 


(iii)        no
assignment shall be made to a natural person; and


 


(iv)        no
assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.


 


The parties to each
such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent and the Borrower) an
Assignment and Acceptance and the applicable tax forms required by Section 16.03(g) and (j). Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 16.06, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion
of its rights (including rights to payment of principal and interest) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender,
including any pledge or security interest granted to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from
any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.


 


(b)          The
Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Agents
and the Lenders.


 




    	 	-153-	 



     


    

 


 


(c)          (i) Any
Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, 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; provided that (A) such
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) such Borrower, the Agents 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, (D) each Participant shall have agreed to be bound by this Section 16.06(c) and Sections 15.09(b)
and 15.15 and (E) each Participant shall have a short term rating of at least “A-2/P2” by S&P and Moody’s,
respectively. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the
sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any Fundamental Amendment.
Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate
with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 16.06(f) with respect to any Participant. Sections 2.09,
2.10, and 16.03 shall apply to each Participant as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to any amount under
Section 2.09, 2.10, or 16.03 which is greater than the amount the related Lender would have been entitled
to under any such Sections or provisions if the applicable participation had not occurred.


 


(ii)         In
the event that any Lender sells participations in any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender as nonfiduciary
agent for the Borrower shall maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Advances held by it and
the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Advance which is the subject of the participation (the
“Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or
any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to
a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that
such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c)
of the United States Treasury Regulations. An Advance may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation
on the Participant Register. Any participation of such Advance may be effected only by the registration of such participation on
the Participant Register. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this
Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.


 




    	 	-154-	 



     


    

 


(d)          The
Administrative Agent, on behalf of and acting solely for this purpose as the nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain
at its address specified in Section 16.02 or such other address as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to
the Lenders, a copy of this Agreement and each signature page hereto and each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted
by it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the outstanding Advances maintained by each Lender under this Agreement (and any stated
interest thereon). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the
Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. An Advance may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration
of such assignment or sale on the Register and in accordance with this Section 16.06.


 


(e)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Facility Document, each Lender hereunder, and each Participant, must
at all times be a “qualified purchaser” as defined in the Investment Company Act (a “Qualified Purchaser”)
and a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a “QIB”).
Each Lender represents to the Borrower, (i) on the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement (whether by being a signatory
hereto or by entering into an Assignment and Acceptance) and (ii) on each date on which it makes an Advance hereunder, that it
is a Qualified Purchaser and a QIB. Each Lender further agrees that it shall not assign, or grant any participations in, any of
its Advances or its Commitment to any Person unless such Person is a Qualified Purchaser and a QIB.


 


(f)          Replacement
of Lenders. If a Lender (i) is a Defaulting Lender, (ii) is a Non-Consenting Lender, or (iii) requests payment of amounts
payable pursuant to Section 2.09 or 16.03 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate
a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.09(c) or Section 16.03(h), respectively, then, in addition
to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, by notice to the
applicable Lender within 180 days after such event (with a copy of such notice concurrently delivered to the Administrative Agent),
require such Lender to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents
required by, Section 16.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.09
or Section 16.03) and obligations under the Facility Documents to one or more Eligible Assignees specified by the Borrower
within 20 days after the Borrower’s notice, provided, however, that (A) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable
Law, (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.09 or 16.03,
such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter, and (C) in the case of any assignment
resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment,
waiver or consent. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or 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. The Administrative Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such assignment if any member of
the affected Lender fails to execute same. The affected Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment,
all amounts owed to it under the Facility Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment
(including any amounts under Section 2.10 as if the Advances owing to it were prepaid rather than assigned).


 




    	 	-155-	 



     


    

 


(g)          Certain
Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such
assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the
assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution
thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other
compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata
share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor
hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to
the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate)
its full pro rata share of all Advances in accordance with its Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any
assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance
with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes
of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. No assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any
claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.


 


Section 16.07.         Governing
Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE
OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER
FACILITY DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER FACILITY DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY AND THEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, except
the conflict of law PRINCIPLES thereof which would have the effect of applying the law of any other jurisdiction.


 


Section 16.08.         Severability
of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting
the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.


 




    	 	-156-	 



     


    

 


Section 16.09.         Confidentiality.
(a) Each Secured Party agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by the Borrower or the Collateral
Manager with respect to the Borrower, its Affiliates, the Collateral or any other information furnished to any Secured Party pursuant
to this Agreement or any other Facility Document (collectively, the “Borrower Information”); provided
that nothing herein shall prevent any Secured Party from disclosing any Borrower Information (a) in connection with
this Agreement and the other Facility Documents and not for any other purpose, (x) to any Secured Party or any Affiliate
of a Secured Party, or (y) any of their respective Affiliates, employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other
professional advisors (collectively, the “Secured Party Representatives”), it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information, (b) subject to an agreement
to comply with the provisions of this Section (or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section), (i) to use the Borrower
Information only in connection with this Agreement and the other Facility Documents and not for any other purpose, to any actual
or bone fide prospective permitted assignees and Participants in any of the Secured Parties’ interests under or in connection
with this Agreement and (ii) as reasonably required by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties or professional advisors
thereto, to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (c) to any Governmental Authority
purporting to have jurisdiction over any Secured Party or any of its Affiliates or any Secured Party Representative, (d) in response
to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required to be disclosed pursuant to any Applicable
Law, (e) that is a matter of general public knowledge or that has heretofore been made available to the public by any Person other
than any Secured Party or any Secured Party Representative, (f) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under
any other Facility Document, (g) with the written consent of the Borrower, (h) that was in its possession or known by such Secured
Party or any of its Affiliates without restriction prior to receipt from the Borrower or the Collateral Manager, (i) that was
rightfully disclosed to such Secured Party by a third party not known by such Secured Party to be under any obligation of confidentiality
to the Borrower or (j) that was independently developed by such Secured Party or any of its Affiliates without any use of Borrower
Information. In addition, each Secured Party may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the Facility Amount available hereunder
to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Secured Parties in connection
with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents.


 


Section 16.10.         Merger.
This Agreement and the other Facility Documents executed by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders taken as a whole incorporate
the entire agreement between the parties thereto concerning the subject matter thereof and such Facility Documents supersede any
prior agreements among the parties relating to the subject matter thereof.


 


Section 16.11.         Survival.
All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Facility Documents and in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto
or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of
the Advances hereunder. The agreements in Sections 2.04(f), 2.09, 2.10, 2.12, 16.03, 16.04,
16.09, 16.16, and 16.18 and this Section 16.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement in whole or in part and
the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Advances.


 


Section 16.12.         Submission
to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Service of Process; Etc. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:


 


(a)          submits
for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Facility Documents to which
it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of
the courts of New York County in the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District

(b)          consents
that any such action or proceeding may be brought in any court described in Section 16.12(a) and waives to the fullest extent
permitted by Applicable Law any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any
such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;


 


(c)          agrees
that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail
(or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such party at its address set forth in Section 16.02 or
at such other address as may be permitted thereunder;


 


(d)          agrees
that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process, summons, notices and documents in any other manner permitted
by applicable law; and


 


(e)          waives,
to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding against
any Secured Party arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Facility Document any special, exemplary, indirect,
punitive or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract,
tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement).


 


Additionally, if the
Borrower fails at any time to maintain a business office in Chicago, Illinois or in the State of New York, it shall immediately
(but no later than five Business Days following such occurrence) (i) notify the Administrative Agent and (ii) appoint
a process agent in accordance with the procedure set forth below. The Borrower shall irrevocably designate, appoint and empower
an agent (the “Process Agent”), with an office in New York, New York, as its designee, appointee and

legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in any action, suit or proceeding brought in the courts listed
above in connection with or arising out of this Agreement or any other Facility Document. If for any reason the Process Agent shall
cease to act as such and the Borrower does not at such time have a business office within the State of New York, the Borrower
agrees to promptly designate new designees, appointees and agents in New York, New York on the terms and for the purposes
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, which new designees, appointees and agents shall thereafter be deemed to be
the Process Agent for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents. The Borrower further hereby irrevocably
consents and agrees to the service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents out of any of the aforesaid courts
in any such action, suit or proceeding by serving a copy thereof upon the Process Agent (whether or not the appointment of the
Process Agent shall for any reason prove to be ineffective or the Process Agent shall accept or acknowledge such service) or by
mailing copies thereof by regular or overnight mail, postage prepaid, to the Process Agent at its address specified above.


 


Section 16.13.         Waiver
of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives
trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Facility Document or for any counterclaim
therein or relating thereto.


 




    	 	-158-	 



     


    

 


Section 16.14.         [Reserved].


 


Section 16.15.         Waiver
of Setoff. Each of the Borrowers and the Collateral Manager hereby waives any right of setoff it may have or to which it may
be entitled under this Agreement from time to time against any Lender or its assets.


 


Section 16.16.         PATRIOT
Act Notice. Each Lender and each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator and the Document
Custodian hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law on October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), 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 the Lenders to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. The Borrower shall provide to the extent
commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by any Lender in order to assist such
Lender in maintaining compliance with the PATRIOT Act.


 


Section 16.17.         Legal
Holidays. In the event that the date of any Payment Date, date of prepayment or Final Maturity Date shall not be a Business
Day, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Facility Document, payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the nominal date of any such Payment
Date, date of prepayment or Final Maturity Date, as the case may be, and interest shall accrue on such payment for the period from
and after any such nominal date to but excluding such next succeeding Business Day.


 


Section 16.18.         Non-Petition.
The Collateral Manager, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, each Lender and the Document Custodian each hereby
agrees not to institute against, or join, cooperate with or encourage any other Person in instituting against, the Borrower any
bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under
federal or state bankruptcy or similar laws until at least one year and one day, or if longer the applicable preference period
then in effect plus one day, after the payment in full of the Advances and the termination of all Commitments. The provisions of
this Section 16.18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.


 


Section 16.19.         No
Fiduciary Duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph,
the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders
and/or their affiliates. The Borrower and the Collateral Manager (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Credit
Parties”) each agree that nothing in the Facility Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary
or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders
or its affiliates, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Facility
Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions
between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process
leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders
or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto)
or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit
Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations
expressly set forth in the Facility Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary
of any Credit Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that
it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making
its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it
will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to
such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.


 




    	 	-159-	 



     


    

 


Section 16.20.         Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving
payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater
than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify
the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such
other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 Advances and other amounts owing them; provided that:


 


(a)          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


 


(b)          the
provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance
with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender),
or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances
to any assignee or participant.


 


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 setoff 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.


 


Section 16.21.         Acknowledgment
and Consent to Bail-In and EEA Financial Institutions.. Notwithstanding any other term in any Facility Document or any other
agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto (each, a “Party”), each Party acknowledges
and accepts that any liability of any Party to any other Party under or in connection with the Facility Documents may be subject
to Bail-In Action by the relevant Resolution Authority and acknowledges and accepts to be bound by the effect of:


 




    	 	-160-	 



     


    

 


(a)          any
Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability, including (without limitation):


 


(i)          a
reduction, in full or in part, in the principal amount, or outstanding amount due (including any accrued but unpaid interest) in
respect of any such liability;


 


(ii)         a
conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred
on, it; and


 


(iii)        a
cancellation of any such liability; and


 


(b)          a
variation of any term of any Facility Document to the extent necessary to give effect to any Bail-In Action in relation to any
such liability.
