is a closed-end management investment company that intends to elect to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”)
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”);


 


WHEREAS, the Adviser
is an investment adviser that is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”);

(the “First A&R Agreement”); and


 


WHEREAS, the Company
and the Adviser desire to amend and restate the First A&R Agreement in its entirety to reflect, among other things, a revision

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows:


 


		1)	Duties of the Adviser
	 	 	 



		a)	The Company hereby employs the Adviser to act as the investment adviser to the Company and to
                                                                manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Company, subject to the supervision of the Board of Directors of
                                                                the Company (the “Board”), for the period and upon the terms herein set forth, (x) in accordance with
                                                                the investment objective, policies and restrictions that are set forth in the Company’s registration statement on
                                                                Form 10 (as amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities
                                                                and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and prior to the date on which the SEC declares the Company’s
                                                                Registration Statement effective, in accordance with the investment objective, policies and restrictions that are set forth
                                                                in the Company’s confidential private placement memorandum dated February 23, 2016 and as amended from time to time;
                                                                (y) in accordance with all other applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations, and the Company’s
                                                                charter and by-laws as the same shall be amended from time to time; and (z) in
accordance with the Investment Company Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Adviser shall, during the term
and subject to the provisions of this Agreement: (i) determine the composition of the portfolio of the Company, the nature
and timing of the changes therein and the manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identify/source, research, evaluate and
negotiate the structure of the investments made by the Company; (iii) close and monitor the Company’s investments; (iv)
determine the securities and other assets that the Company will purchase, retain, or sell; (v) use reasonable endeavors to
ensure that the Company’s investments consist mainly of shares, securities or currencies (or derivative contracts relating
thereto), which for the avoidance of doubt may include loans, notes and other evidences of indebtedness; (vi) perform due
diligence on prospective portfolio companies; and (vii) provide the Company with such other investment advisory, research,
and related services as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of its funds, including providing
operating and managerial assistance to the Company and its portfolio companies as required. Subject to the supervision of the Board,
the Adviser shall have the power and authority on behalf of the Company to effectuate its investment decisions for the Company,
including the execution and delivery of all documents relating to the Company’s investments and the placing of orders for
other purchase or sale transactions on behalf of the Company. In the event that the Company determines to acquire debt financing,
the Adviser will arrange for such financing on the Company’s behalf, subject to the oversight and approval of the Board.
If it is necessary or appropriate for the Adviser to make investments on behalf of the Company through a special purpose vehicle,
the Adviser shall have authority to create or arrange for the creation of such special purpose vehicle and to make such investments
through such special purpose vehicle (in accordance with the Investment Company Act).






 



     1


     


    

 


		b)	The Adviser hereby accepts such employment and agrees during the term hereof to render the services
described herein for the compensation provided herein.
	 	 	 



		c)	The Adviser shall for all purposes herein provided be deemed to be an independent contractor and,
except as expressly provided or authorized herein, shall have no authority to act for or represent the Company in any way or otherwise
be deemed an agent of the Company.
	 	 	 



		d)	The Adviser shall keep and preserve for the period required by the Investment Company Act any books
and records relevant to the provision of its investment advisory services to the Company and shall specifically maintain all books
and records in accordance with Section 31(a) of the Investment Company Act with respect to the Company’s portfolio transactions
and shall render to the Board such periodic and special reports as the Board may reasonably request. The Adviser agrees that all
records that it maintains for the Company are the property of the Company and will surrender promptly to the Company any such records
upon the Company’s request, provided that the Adviser may retain a copy of such records.
	 	 	 



		e)	The Adviser shall be primarily responsible for the execution of any trades in securities in the
Company’s portfolio and the Company’s allocation of brokerage commissions.



 






     2


     


    

 


		f)	Following a continuous public offering through the independent broker-dealer network (a “Non-Listed
Offering”) and prior to such time as the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange (an
 “Exchange Listing”), the Adviser shall, upon request by an official or agency administering the securities laws
of a state (a “State Administrator”), submit to such State Administrator the reports and statements required
to be distributed to the Company’s stockholders pursuant to this Agreement, any registration statement filed with the SEC
and applicable federal and state law.
	 	 	 



		g)	The Adviser has a fiduciary responsibility and duty to the Company and the Company’s stockholders
for the safekeeping and use of all the funds and assets of the Company, whether or not in the Adviser’s immediate possession
or control. Following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing, the Adviser (i) shall not employ, or permit another
to employ, such funds or assets except for the exclusive benefit of the Company and (ii) may not contract away the fiduciary obligation
owed to the Company and the Company’s stockholders under common law.
	 	 	 



		h)	Following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing, the provisions set forth in “Annex
A —IV. Conflicts of Interest” shall apply.
	 	 	 



		2)	Company’s Responsibilities and Expenses Payable by the Company 



 


Except as
otherwise provided herein or in the Administration Agreement (the “Administration Agreement”), dated March
1, 2016, between the Company and the Adviser (the Adviser, in its capacity as the administrator, the
 “Administrator”), the Adviser shall be solely responsible for the compensation of its investment
professionals and employees and all overhead expenses of the Adviser (including rent, office equipment and utilities). The
Company will bear all other costs and expenses of its operations, administration and transactions, including (without
limitation): the cost of its organization and any offerings; the cost of calculating its net asset value, including the cost
of any third-party valuation services; the cost of effecting any sales and repurchases of the Common Stock and other
securities; fees and expenses payable under any dealer manager agreements, if any; debt service and other costs of borrowings
or other financing arrangements; costs of hedging; expenses, including travel expense, incurred by the Adviser, or members of
the Investment Team, or payable to third parties, performing due diligence on prospective portfolio companies and, if
necessary, enforcing the Company’s rights; transfer agent and custodial fees; fees and expenses associated with
marketing efforts; federal and state registration fees, any stock exchange listing fees and fees payable to rating agencies;
federal, state and local taxes; independent directors’ fees and expenses including certain travel expenses; costs of
preparing financial statements and maintaining books and records and filing reports or other documents with the SEC (or other
regulatory bodies) and other reporting and compliance costs, including registration and listing fees, and the compensation of
professionals responsible for the preparation of the foregoing; the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices
to stockholders (including printing and mailing costs), the costs of any stockholder or director meetings and the
compensation of personnel responsible for the preparation of the foregoing and related matters; commissions and other
compensation payable to brokers or dealers; research and market data; fidelity bond, directors and officers errors and
omissions liability insurance and other insurance premiums; direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing,
mailing, long distance telephone and staff; fees and expenses associated with independent audits, outside legal and
consulting costs; costs of winding up; costs incurred in connection with the formation or maintenance of entities or vehicles
to hold the Company’s assets for tax or other purposes; extraordinary expenses (such as litigation or indemnification);
and costs associated with reporting and compliance obligations under the Advisers Act and applicable federal and state
securities laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall reimburse the Adviser (or its
affiliates) for an allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser (or its affiliates) to the Company’s Chief
Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs (based on a percentage of time such individuals
devote, on an estimated basis, to the business affairs of the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, the Adviser shall be
solely responsible for any placement or “finder’s” fees payable to placement agents engaged by the Company
or its affiliates in connection with the offering of securities by the Company.


 






     3


     


    

 


In
addition to the compensation paid to the Adviser pursuant to Section 3, following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange
Listing the provisions set forth in “Annex A —I. Company’s Responsibilities and Expenses Payable by the Company”
shall apply.


 


		3)	Compensation of the Adviser
	 	 	 



The
Company agrees to pay, and the Adviser agrees to accept, as compensation for the services provided by the Adviser hereunder, a
base management fee (the “Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) as
hereinafter set forth. The Company shall make any payments due hereunder to the Adviser or to the Adviser’s designee as the
Adviser may otherwise direct.


 


		a)	For services rendered under this Agreement, the Management Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears.
Management Fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately prorated and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases
during the relevant month or quarter. The Management fee shall be calculated as follows:
	 	 	 



		i)	Prior to an Exchange Listing, the Management Fee shall be calculated at an annual rate of 0.75%
of (i) the average of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash-equivalents but including assets purchased with
borrowed amounts, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters and (ii) the average of any remaining undrawn
capital commitments at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters.
	 	 	 



		ii)	Following an Exchange Listing, the Management Fee shall be calculated at an annual rate of (x)
1.50% of the average of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash-equivalents but including assets purchased with
borrowed amounts, that is above an asset coverage ratio of 200% calculated in accordance with Sections 18 and 61 of the Investment
Company Act, and (y) 1.00% of the average of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash-equivalents but including
assets purchased with borrowed amounts, that is below an asset coverage ratio of 200% calculated in accordance with Sections 18
and 61 of the Investment Company Act, in each case at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters.



 






     4


     


    

 


		b)	Prior to an Exchange Listing, the Adviser will not be entitled to an Incentive Fee. Following an
Exchange Listing, the Incentive Fee shall consist of two parts, as follows:
	 	 	 



		i)	One part will be calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the pre-Incentive Fee net
investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter commencing with the first calendar quarter following an Exchange
Listing. For this purpose, pre-Incentive Fee net investment income means dividends (including reinvested dividends), interest and
fee income accrued by the Company during the calendar quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for the calendar quarter
(including the Management Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement to the Administrator, and any interest expense
and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee). Pre-Incentive Fee net investment
income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments
with pay-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-Incentive
Fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation
or depreciation. Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net
assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, will be compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.5% per calendar
quarter (6% annualized). The Company’s net investment income used to calculate this part of the Incentive Fee is also included
in the amount of its gross assets used to calculate the Management Fee.



 


The Company will pay
the Adviser an Incentive Fee with respect to the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income in each calendar quarter
as follows:


 


		·	With the exception of the Capital Gains Incentive Fee (as defined and discussed in greater detail
below), no Incentive Fee is payable to the Adviser prior to an Exchange Listing or in any calendar quarter in which the Company’s
pre-Incentive Fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.5% for such calendar quarter.
	 	 	 



		·	100% of the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income with respect to that portion
of such pre-Incentive Fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate is payable to the Adviser until the Adviser
has received 17.5% of the total pre-Incentive Fee net investment income for that calendar quarter. The Company refers to this portion
of the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income as the “catch-up.”
	 	 	 



		·	Once the hurdle is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 17.5% of all remaining pre-Incentive Fee
net investment income for that calendar quarter is payable to the Adviser.



 






     5


     


    

 



		ii)	The second part of the Incentive Fee (the “Capital Gains Incentive Fee”)
                                                                will be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year of the Company (or upon termination of this
                                                                Agreement as set forth below), and will equal 17.5% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative
                                                                basis from the date on which the Exchange Listing becomes effective (the “Listing Date”) to the end of
                                                                such calendar year, computed net
of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis from the Listing Date through the end
of each calendar year, minus the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Incentive Fees for prior periods. For the
sole purpose of calculating the Capital Gains Incentive Fee, the cost basis as of the Listing Date for all of the Company’s
investments made prior to the Listing Date will be equal to the fair market value of such investments as of the last day of the
calendar quarter in which the Listing Date occurs; provided, however, that in no event will the Capital Gains Incentive Fee payable
pursuant hereto be in excess of the amount permitted by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, including Section 205
thereof.
	 	 	 



		iii)	Examples of the quarterly incentive fee calculation are attached hereto as Annex B. Such examples
are included for illustrative purposes only and are not considered part of this Agreement.
	 	 	 



		4)	Covenants of the Adviser



 


The Adviser agrees
that it will remain registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act so long as the Company maintains its election to
be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act. The Adviser agrees that its activities will at all times be in compliance
in all material respects with all applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments. In addition, following
a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing, the Adviser shall comply with the covenants set forth in “Annex
A —II. Covenants of the Adviser.”


 


		5)	Excess Brokerage Commissions



 


The Adviser is hereby
authorized, to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law, to cause the Company to pay a member of a national securities
exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission
another member of such exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Adviser determines
in good faith, taking into account such factors as price (including the applicable brokerage commission or dealer spread), size
of order, difficulty of execution, and operational facilities of the firm and the firm’s risk and skill in positioning blocks
of securities, that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services
provided by such member, broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or its overall responsibilities
with respect to the Company’s portfolio, and constitutes the best net results for the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing, the provisions set forth in “Annex
A —III. Excess Brokerage Commissions” shall apply.


 


		6)	Investment Team



 


The
Adviser shall manage the Company’s portfolio through a team of investment professionals (the “Investment Team”)
dedicated primarily to the Company’s business, in cooperation with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Investment
Team shall be comprised of senior personnel of the Adviser, supported by and with access to the investment professionals, analytical
capabilities and support personnel of the Company.


 






     6


     


    

 


		7)	Limitations on the Employment of the Adviser



 


The
services of the Adviser to the Company are not exclusive, and the Adviser may engage in any other business or render similar or
different services to others including, without limitation, the direct or indirect sponsorship or management of other investment-based
accounts or commingled pools of capital, however structured, having investment objectives similar to those of the Company, so long
as its services to the Company hereunder are not impaired thereby, and nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right
of any manager, partner, officer or employee of the Adviser to engage in any other business or to devote his or her time and attention
in part to any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to receive any fees or compensation in connection
therewith (including fees for serving as a director of, or providing consulting services to, one or more of the Company’s
portfolio companies, subject to applicable law). So long as this Agreement or any extension, renewal or amendment remains in effect,
the Adviser shall be the only investment adviser for the Company, subject to the Adviser’s right to enter into sub-advisory
agreements as set forth herein. The Adviser assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called
for hereunder. It is understood that directors, officers, employees and stockholders of the Company are or may become interested
in the Adviser and its affiliates, as directors, officers, employees, partners, stockholders, members, managers or otherwise, and
that the Adviser and directors, officers, employees, partners, stockholders, members and managers of the Adviser and its affiliates
are or may become similarly interested in the Company as stockholders or otherwise.


 


		8)	Responsibility of Dual Directors, Officers and/or Employees



 


If
any person who is a manager, partner, officer or employee of the Adviser is or becomes a director, officer and/or employee of the
Company and acts as such in any business of the Company, then such manager, partner, officer and/or employee of the Adviser or
the Administrator shall be deemed to be acting in such capacity solely for the Company, and not as a manager, partner, officer
or employee of the Adviser or the Administrator or under the control or direction of the Adviser or the Administrator, even if
paid by the Adviser or the Administrator.


 


		9)	Limitation of Liability of the Adviser; Indemnification



 


The
Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and
any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser, including without limitation its sole member) shall not be liable to
the Company for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Adviser in connection with the performance of any of its
duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Company (except to the extent
specified in Section 36(b) of the Investment Company Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty (as the
same is finally determined by judicial proceedings) with respect to the receipt of compensation for services), and the
Company shall indemnify, defend and protect the Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling
persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser, including without limitation its general partner
or managing member and the Administrator each of whom shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof) (collectively, the
 “Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless from and against all damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by the Indemnified
Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an
action or suit by or in the right of the Company or its security holders) arising out of or otherwise based upon the
performance of any of the Adviser’s duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment
adviser of the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Section 9 to the contrary, nothing contained herein
shall protect or be deemed to protect the Indemnified Parties against or entitle or be deemed to entitle the Indemnified
Parties to indemnification in respect of, any liability to the Company or its security holders to which the Indemnified
Parties would otherwise be subject by reason of criminal conduct, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of the Adviser’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Adviser’s duties and
obligations under this Agreement (as the same shall be determined in accordance with the Investment Company Act and any
interpretations or guidance by the SEC or its staff thereunder). Notwithstanding this Section 9 to the contrary, following a
Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing, the provisions set forth in “Annex A —V. Limitation of
Liability of the Adviser; Indemnification” shall apply.

Annex A


 


Additional Provisions 


 


		I.	Company’s Responsibilities and Expenses Payable by the Company. In addition to the
compensation paid to the Adviser pursuant to Section 3 of the Agreement, following a Non-Listed Offering the Company shall reimburse
the Adviser for all expenses of the Company incurred by the Adviser as well as the actual cost of goods and services used for or
by the Company and obtained from entities not affiliated with the Adviser. Following a Non-Listed Offering the Adviser may be reimbursed
for the administrative services performed by it on behalf of the Company pursuant to any separate administration or co-administration
agreement with the Adviser; provided, however, such reimbursement shall be an amount equal to the lower of the Adviser’s
actual cost or the amount the Company would be required to pay third parties for the provision of comparable administrative services
in the same geographic location; and provided, further, that such costs are reasonably allocated to the Company on the basis of
assets, revenues, time records or other methods conforming with generally accepted accounting principles. No such reimbursement
shall be permitted for services for which the Adviser is entitled to compensation by way of a separate fee. Excluded from such
allowable reimbursement shall be:
	 	 	 



		a.	rent or depreciation, utilities, capital equipment, and other administrative items of the Adviser;
and
	 	 	 



		b.	salaries, fringe benefits, travel expenses and other administrative items incurred by or allocated
to any Controlling Person of the Adviser. The term “Controlling Person” shall mean a person, whatever his or her title,
who performs functions for the Adviser similar to those of (a) the chairman or other member of a board of directors, (b) executive
officers or (c) those holding 10% or more equity interest in the Adviser, or a person having the power to direct or cause the direction
of the Adviser, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
	 	 	 



		II.	Covenants of the Adviser. Following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing:
	 	 	 



		a.	The Adviser shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared and mailed or delivered by any reasonable
means, including an electronic medium, a copy of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed by the Company under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to each stockholder as of a record date after
the end of the fiscal year within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year to which it relates that shall include: (i) financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which are audited and reported on by independent
certified public accountants; (ii) a report of the material activities of the Company during the period covered by the report;
(iii) where forecasts have been provided to the Company’s stockholders, a table comparing the forecasts previously provided
with the actual results during the period covered by the report; and (iv) a report setting forth distributions to Company’s stockholders for the period covered thereby and separately identifying distributions from: (A) cash flow from operations during the period; (B) cash flow from operations during a prior period which have been held as reserves; (C) proceeds from disposition of assets; and (D) reserves from the gross proceeds. Such Annual Report on Form 10-K must also contain a breakdown of the costs reimbursed to the Adviser. The Company shall take reasonable steps to assure that: (v) within the scope of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements, the independent certified public accountants preparing such Annual Report on Form 10-K will issue a special report on the allocation of such costs to the Company in accordance with this Agreement; (w) the special report shall be in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants United States Auditing Standards relating to special reports; (x) the additional costs of such special report will be itemized and may be reimbursed to the Adviser by the Company in accordance with this Section II(a) only to the extent that such reimbursement, when added to the cost for administrative services rendered, does not exceed the competitive rate for such services as determined above; (y) the special report shall at minimum provide a review of the time records of individual employees, the costs of whose services were reimbursed and the specific nature of the work performed by each such employee; and (z) the prospectus, prospectus supplement or periodic report as filed with the SEC shall disclose in tabular form an itemized estimate of such proposed expenses for the next fiscal year together with a breakdown by year of such expenses reimbursed in each of the last five public programs formed by the Adviser and subject to the Omnibus Guidelines published by the North American Securities Administrators Association on May 7, 2007. 



 






     A-1


     


    

 



		b.	The Adviser shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared and mailed or delivered to each Company
stockholder within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed by the Company
under the Exchange Act.
	 	 	 



		c.	The Adviser shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared and mailed or delivered within 75 days
after the end of each calendar year of the Company to each person who was at any time during such calendar year a Company stockholder
all information pertaining to such stockholder’s investment in the Company necessary for the preparation of such person’s
federal income tax return.
	 	 	 



		d.	The Adviser shall, upon written request of any State Administrator, submit any of the reports and
statements to be prepared and distributed by it pursuant to this Section II to such State Administrator.
	 	 	 



		e.	In performing its duties hereunder, the Adviser shall cause the Company to provide for adequate
reserves for normal replacements and contingencies (but not for the payment of fees payable to the Adviser described in Section
3 of the Agreement) by causing the Company to retain a reasonable percentage of proceeds from offerings and revenues.



 






     A-2


     


    

 


		f.	From time to time and not less than quarterly, the Company shall cause the Adviser to review the
Company’s accounts to determine whether cash distributions are appropriate. The Company may, subject to authorization by
the Board, distribute pro rata to the Company’s stockholders funds which the Board deems unnecessary to retain in the Company.
In no event shall funds be advanced or borrowed solely for the purpose of such cash distributions. Any cash distributions to the
Adviser shall be made only in conjunction with distributions to stockholders and as a result of any shares held by the Adviser.
All such cash distributions shall be made only out of funds legally available therefor pursuant to the Maryland General Corporation
Law, as amended from time to time.
	 	 	 



		g.	The Adviser shall, in its sole discretion, temporarily place proceeds from offerings by the Company
of its equity securities into short-term, highly liquid investments which, in its reasonable judgment, afford appropriate safety
of principal during such time as it is determining the composition and allocation of the portfolio of the Company and the nature,
timing and implementation of any changes thereto pursuant to Section 1 of the Agreement; provided however, that the Adviser shall
be under no fiduciary obligation to select any such short-term, highly liquid investment based solely on any yield or return of
such investment. The Adviser shall cause any proceeds of the offering of Company securities not committed for investment within
the later of two years from the date of effectiveness of the registration statement relating to the Non-Listed Offering or one
year from termination of the Non-Listed Offering, unless a longer period is permitted by the applicable State Administrator, to
be paid as a distribution to the stockholders of the Company as a return of capital without deduction of Front End Fees.
	 	 	 



		III.	Excess Brokerage Commissions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following
a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing:
	 	 	 



		a.	All Front End Fees (as defined in the Company’s charter) shall be reasonable and shall not
exceed 18% of the gross proceeds of any offering and sale of the Company’s shares, regardless of the source of payment. Any
reimbursement to the Adviser or any other person for deferred Organizational and Offering Expenses (as defined in the Company’s
charter), including any interest thereon, if any, will be included within this 18% limitation.
	 	 	 



		b.	The Adviser shall cause the Company to commit at least 82% of the gross proceeds of any offering
and sale of the Company’s shares towards the investment or reinvestment of assets and reserves as set forth in Section II(e)
of this Annex A on behalf of the Company. The remaining proceeds may be used to pay Front End Fees.
	 	 	 



		IV.	Conflicts of Interest. Following a Non-Listed Offering:
	 	 	 



		a.	The Adviser is
not hereby granted or entitled to an exclusive right to sell or exclusive employment to sell assets for the Company.



 






     A-3


     


    

 


		b.	The Adviser shall not receive or accept any rebate or give-ups or similar arrangement that is prohibited
under applicable federal or state securities laws. The Adviser shall not directly or indirectly pay or award any fees or commissions
or other compensation to any Person engaged to sell shares of the Company’s stock or give investment advice to a potential
stockholder; provided, however, that this subsection shall not prohibit the payment to a registered broker-dealer or other properly
licensed agent of sales commissions for selling or distributing the Company’s common stock.
	 	 	 



		c.	The Adviser covenants that it shall not permit or cause to be permitted the Company’s funds
from being commingled with the funds of any other entity. However, nothing in this subsection shall prohibit the Adviser from establishing
a master fiduciary account pursuant to which separate sub-trust accounts are established for the benefit of affiliated programs,
provided that the Company’s funds are protected from the claims of other programs and creditors of such programs.
	 	 	 



		V.	Limitation of Liability of the Adviser; Indemnification.
	 	 	 



		a.	Following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange
Listing, the Company shall not provide for indemnification of an Indemnified Party for any liability or loss suffered by the an
Indemnified Party, nor shall the Company provide that any of the Indemnified Parties be held harmless for any loss or liability
suffered by the Company, unless all of the following conditions are met:
	 	 	 



		i.	the Indemnified Party has determined, in good faith, that
the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in the best interests of the Company;
	 	 	 



		ii.	the Indemnified
Party was acting on behalf of or performing services for the Company;



 


		iii.	such liability
or loss was not the result of (A) negligence or misconduct, in the case that the Indemnified Party is the Adviser or an Affiliate
(as defined in the Articles of Incorporation) of the Adviser, or (B) gross negligence or willful misconduct, in the case that
the Indemnified Party is a director of the Company who is not also an officer of the Company or the Adviser or an Affiliate of
the Adviser; and



 


		iv.	such indemnification
or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Company’s net assets and not from the Company stockholders.



 






     A-4


     


    

 


Furthermore,
the Indemnified Party shall not be indemnified for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation
of federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are met:


 


		i.	there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of
each count involving alleged material securities law violations as to the Indemnified Party;
	 	 	 



		ii.	such claims have
been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the Indemnified Party; or
	 	 	 



		iii.	a court of competent
jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the Indemnified Party and finds that indemnification of the settlement
and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position
of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which shares of stock of the Company
were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.
	 	 	 



		b.	Following a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange
Listing, the Company may pay or reimburse reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in advance
of final disposition of a proceeding only if all of the following are satisfied:
	 	 	 



		i.	the proceeding
relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company;
	 	 	 



		ii.	the Indemnified
Party provides the Company with written affirmation of such Indemnified Party’s good faith belief that the Indemnified Party
has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company;
	 	 	 



		iii.	the legal proceeding
was initiated by a third party who is not a Company stockholder, or, if by a Company stockholder acting in his or her capacity
as such, a court of competent jurisdiction approves such advancement; and
	 	 	 



		iv.	the Indemnified
Party provides the Company with a written agreement to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Company, together with the applicable
legal rate of interest thereon, if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnified Party did not comply with the requisite standard
of conduct and is not entitled to indemnification.



 






     A-5


     


    

 



		VI.	Effectiveness, Duration and Termination of Agreement. Following
a Non-Listed Offering and prior to an Exchange Listing, without the approval of holders of a majority of the shares entitled to
vote on the matter, the Adviser shall not: (i) amend this Agreement except for amendments that do not adversely affect the interests
of the stockholders; (ii) voluntarily withdraw as the Adviser unless such withdrawal would not affect the tax status of the Company
and would not materially adversely affect the stockholders; (iii) appoint a new Adviser; (iv) sell all or substantially all of
the Company’s assets other than in the ordinary course of the Company’s business; or (v) cause the merger or other
reorganization of the Company. In the event that the Adviser should withdraw pursuant to (ii) above, the withdrawing Adviser shall
pay all expenses incurred as a result of its withdrawal.
The Company may terminate the Adviser’s interest in the Company’s revenues, expenses, income, losses, distributions
and capital by payment of an amount equal to the then present fair market value of the terminated Adviser’s interest, determined
by agreement of the terminated Adviser and the Company. If Company Fund and the Adviser cannot agree upon such amount, the parties
will submit to binding arbitration which cost will be borne equally by the Adviser and the Company. The method of payment to the
terminated Adviser must be fair and must protect the solvency and liquidity of the Company.

Annex B


 


Examples of Quarterly Incentive Fee
Calculation


 


Example 1: Income Related Portion of Incentive Fee1,2:


 


Alternative 1


 


Assumptions


 


Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.)
= 2.00%

Hurdle rate3 = 1.50%

Management fee4 = 0.38%

Other expenses (legal, accounting, custodian, transfer agent, etc.)5 = 0.20%

Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income

    (investment income - (management fee + other expenses)) = 1.42%

Pre-incentive net investment income does not exceed hurdle rate, therefore there is no Incentive Fee.


 


Alternative 2


 


Assumptions


 


Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.)
= 2.25%

Hurdle rate3 = 1.50%

Management fee4 = 0.38%

Other expenses (legal, accounting, custodian, transfer agent, etc.)5 = 0.20%

Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income

    (investment income - (management fee + other expenses)) = 1.67%

Incentive Fee = 100% × pre-Incentive Fee net investment income, subject to the “catch-up”6

    = 100% × (1.67% - 1.5%)

    = 0.17%


 






     B-1


     


    

 


Alternative 3


 


Assumptions


 


Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.)
= 2.50%

Hurdle rate3 = 1.50%

Management fee4 = 0.38%

Other expenses (legal, accounting, custodian, transfer agent, etc.)5 = 0.20%

Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income

    (investment income - (management fee + other expenses)) = 1.92%

Incentive Fee = 17.50% × pre-Incentive Fee net investment income, subject to “catch-up”6

Incentive Fee = 100% × “catch-up” + (17.50% × (pre-Incentive Fee net investment income - 1.875%))

Catch-up = 1.82% - 1.50% = 0.32%

Incentive Fee = (100% × 0.32%) + (17.50% × (1.92% - 1.82%))

    = 0.32% + (17.50% × 0.92%)


   = 0.32% + 0.02%

    = 0.34%


 


1This example assumes that an Exchange Listing
has occurred.


2 The hypothetical amount of pre-Incentive Fee
net investment income shown is based on a percentage of total net assets.


3 Represents 6.0% annualized hurdle rate.


4 Represents 1.50% annualized management fee.


5 Excludes organizational and offering expenses.


6 The “catch-up” provision is intended
to provide the Adviser with an Incentive Fee of 17.50% on all of the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income as
if a hurdle rate did not apply. The “catch-up” portion of the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income
is the portion that exceeds the 1.5% hurdle rate but is less than or equal to 1.82% in any quarter.

Example 2: Capital Gains Portion of Incentive Fee:


 


Assumptions


 


		i)	Year 1: The Listing Date is the last day of the first calendar quarter. Prior to the last day of
the first calendar quarter the Company has made an investment in Company A (“Investment A”), an investment in
Company B (“Investment B”), an investment in Company C (“Investment C”), an investment in
Company D (“Investment D”) and an investment in Company E (“Investment E”). On the last day
of the first calendar quarter the fair market value (“FMV”) of each of Investment A, Investment B, Investment
C, Investment D and Investment E is $10 million. For purposes of calculating the Capital Gains Incentive Fee, the cost basis of
each of Investment A, Investment B, Investment C, Investment D and Investment E is considered to be its FMV as of the last day
of the first calendar quarter; provided, however, that in no event will the Capital Gains Incentive Fee payable pursuant hereto
be in excess of the amount permitted by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, including Section 205 thereof.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 2: Investment A sold for $20 million, fair market value (“FMV”) of Investment B determined to
be $8 million, FMV of Investment C determined to be $12 million, and FMV of Investments D and E each determined to be
$10 million.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 3: FMV of Investment of B determined to be $8 million, FMV of Investment C determined to be $14 million, FMV of Investment
D determined to be $14 million and FMV of Investment E determined to be $16 million.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 4: $10 million investment made in Company F (“Investment F”), Investment D sold for $12 million,
FMV of Investment B determined to be $10 million, FMV of Investment C determined to be $16 million and FMV of Investment
E determined to be $14 million.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 5: Investment C sold for $20 million, FMV of Investment B determined to be $14 million, FMV of Investment E
determined to be $10 million and FMV of Investment F determined to $12 million.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 6: Investment B sold for $16 million, FMV of Investment E determined to be $8 million and FMV of Investment
F determined to be $15 million.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 7: Investment E sold for $8 million and FMV of Investment F determined to be $17 million.
	 	 	 



		·	Year 8: Investment F sold for $18 million.
