required to comply with the Treasury Regulations, whether on account of an unanticipated event or otherwise; provided that no such modification will be made if such modification is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on any Member.


 Section 4.02 Allocations. 
  

	 	(a)	General Allocations. 

  

	 	(i)	Allocations of Profit and Loss. Subject to the special allocations set forth in Section 4.02(a)(ii), the Profits or Losses (or items of income, gain, loss, or deduction, as may be necessary) for a
fiscal year, or other relevant period, shall be allocated among the Members in such a manner that, as of the end of such period and to the extent possible with respect to each Member, such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account shall be equal to the
amount that would be distributed to such Member under this Agreement if the Company were to, (A) liquidate the assets of the Company for an amount equal to the Adjusted Asset Value of such property as of the end of such fiscal year or other
relevant period, (B) all liabilities of the Company are satisfied (limited in the case of any nonrecourse loan to an amount equal to the Adjusted Asset Value of any property securing loan), and (C) distribute the proceeds in liquidation in
accordance with Section 8.03(d)(iv) of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(ii)	Regulatory Allocations. Notwithstanding the allocations set forth in Section 4.02(a), Profit and Loss or specific items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be specially allocated to the Members in order
to comply with certain requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 (including the minimum gain chargeback requirement 


  
 12 









	 	
in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), the partner minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2 (i)(4) and the qualified income offset requirement of the alternate
test for economic effect in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)). Allocations of Profit and Loss for the fiscal years or other relevant period after any period in which this Section 4.02(a)(ii) applies shall be made in a way that, to
the extent possible, reverses the effects of any allocations pursuant to this Section 4.02(a)(ii). The Administrative Agent shall apply such provisions in its good faith discretion based on advice from the Company’s tax advisors.


  

	 	(b)	Loss Limitation. Losses allocated pursuant to Section 4.02(a) shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be allocated without causing any Member to have a negative Capital Account balance
at the end of any fiscal year or other relevant period (after taking into account the adjustments, allocations and distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)). In the event
some but not all of the Members would have negative Capital Account balances as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to Section 4.02(a), the limitation set forth in this Section 4.02(b) shall be applied on a
Member by Member basis and Losses not allocable to any Member as a result of such limitation shall be allocated to other Members in accordance with the positive balances in such Member’s Capital Accounts so as to allocate the maximum
permissible Losses to such Member under Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). Allocations of Profit and Loss for the fiscal years or other relevant period after any period in which this Section 4.02(b) applies shall be
made in a way that, to the extent possible, reverses the effects of any limitations on allocations of Losses pursuant to this Section 4.01(b). 


Section 4.03 Transfers of Membership Interests. All items of Profit and Loss allocable to any Company interest that may have been transferred or
otherwise disposed of shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee based on an interim closing of the books, as determined in good faith with Board Approval; provided, however, that this allocation must be made in accordance with a
method permissible under Section 706 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder. 
 Section 4.04 Tax Allocations; Section 704(c) of the
Code. For each fiscal year, items of income, deduction, gain, loss or credit that are recognized for federal income Tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members pursuant to Section 1.704-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations in such manner
as to reflect equitably amounts credited to or debited from each Member’s Capital Account for the current and prior fiscal years. Such allocations shall take into account any variation between the adjusted Tax basis of property of the Company
and its Adjusted Asset Value, in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Board. The Company shall
elect for federal tax purposes to amortize any Organization Costs over 180 months in accordance with Section 709 of the Code. Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.04 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local Taxes and
shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s share of Profits, Losses, distributions or other items pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement. 

  
 13 








 Section 4.05 Classification as a Partnership. The Company shall be classified as a partnership for
U.S. federal income tax purposes and no person shall take any action inconsistent with such classification. 
 ARTICLE V 

DISTRIBUTIONS

General. 
  

	 	(a)	To the extent of available cash and cash equivalents after payment of Expenses, the Company shall make distributions quarterly in the amounts as determined by Board Approval, shared among the Members as set forth in
Section 5.01(b) below; provided that the amount of any distribution may be reduced as provided by Section 5.02 and Section 5.03. 

  

	 	(b)	All distributions under this Section 5.01 shall be shared among the Members as follows:

	 	(iii)	Third, to the Members, pro rata in accordance with their Capital Contributions. 


Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01, at any time prior to the second anniversary of this Agreement,
(i) proceeds received by the Company and that are distributed to the Members may be added back to the unfunded Capital Commitments of the Members and may be recalled by the Company as set forth in Article III, or alternatively (ii) upon
Board Approval, in lieu of distributing proceeds pursuant to Section 5.01(b), the Company may elect to retain and reinvest such proceeds in Investments. 

Section 5.02 Withholding. The Company may withhold from any distribution to any Member any amount which the Company has paid or is obligated to
pay in respect of any withholding or other tax, including any interest, penalties, or additions with respect any withholding or other tax imposed on any interest or income of or distributions to the Member, and the withheld amount shall be
considered an interest payment or a distribution, as the case may be, to the Member for purposes of this Agreement. If no payment is then being made to the Member in an amount sufficient to pay the Company’s withholding obligation, then any
amount that the Company is obligated to pay shall be deemed an interest-free advance from the Company to the Member, payable by the Member by withholding from subsequent distributions or within ten (10) days after receiving written request for
payment from the Company. 
 Section 5.03 Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding sections 5.01 and 5.02:

	 	(b)	Without Board Approval, the Company shall not make in-kind distributions. Distributions of securities and of other non-cash assets of the Company upon Board Approval shall only be made pro rata to all Members (in
proportion to their respective Capital Accounts) with respect to each security or other asset distributed. Securities listed on a national securities exchange that are not restricted as to transferability and unlisted securities for which an active
trading market exists and that are not restricted as to transferability shall be valued in the manner contemplated by Section 9.05 as of the close of business on the day preceding the distribution, and all other securities and non-cash assets
shall be valued as determined in the last valuation made pursuant to Section 9.05. 

 ARTICLE VI

detail in Schedule A of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding section 6.01(a), the matters detailed in Schedule B of this Agreement will require the approval (“Prior Investment Committee Approval”) of a committee (the “Investment

Members agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Administrative Services Agreement shall not require Board Approval and is hereby approved by the Members; provided, that any amendments to the Administrative
Services Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall require Board Approval. The function of the Administrative Agent shall be administrative only.

	 	(b)	The Directors will determine the number of members of the Investment Committee and the authorized number of committee members may be increased or decreased by the Directors at any time provided that at all time each
Member has appointed an equal number of members to the Investment Committee. The initial number of members of the Investment Committee shall be two (2), and each Member shall elect, designate, or appoint one (1) member of the Investment
Committee. The initial member of the Investment Committee appointed by Windward is Susan W. Moon and the initial member of the Investment Committee appointed by BCIC is Steven F. Sterling. At any time and from time to time, (x) BCIC may
designate, remove, or designate a successor to any Person or Persons designated by BCIC to serve on the Investment Committee (each of those Persons, a “BCIC IC Representative”) by written notice to Windward and (y) Windward may
designate, remove, or designate a successor to any Person or Persons designated by Windward to serve on the Investment Committee (each of those Persons, a “Windward IC Representative”) by written notice to BCIC; provided, that

Affiliates. At such time as any Director, BCIC IC Representative, or Windward IC Representative shall cease to devote substantially all of his or her professional time to the Company, the Member by whom he or she was appointed, and that
Member’s Affiliates, the Director, BCIC IC Representative, or Windward IC Representative, as applicable, shall be ineligible to serve in that capacity and must be replaced immediately by the Member by whom he or she was appointed; provided,

Meetings of the Board may be called by any Director on not less than 24 hours’ notice to each Director by telephone, facsimile, mail, telegram, email, or any other similar means of communication, with the notice stating the place, date, and
hour of the meeting (and the means by which each Director may participate by telephone conference or similar communications equipment in accordance with Section 6.05 of this Agreement) and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is
called. Special meetings may be called by a Director in like manner and with like notice upon the written request of any one or more of the Directors. Attendance of a Director at any meeting (including any meeting that occurs less than 24 hours
after notice of the meeting) shall constitute a waiver of notice of the meeting, except where a Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or
convened. 
 Section 6.04 Quorum; Acts of the Board. 
  

	 	(a)	At all meetings of the Board the presence of two (2) Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, provided that there are an equal number of Directors present that were elected, designated,
or appointed by each Member. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board, then the Directors present at the meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is
present. 

  

	 	(b)	Every act or decision done or made by the Board shall require the unanimous approval of all Directors present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present. The Company shall not have the authority without Board
Approval to approve or undertake any item set forth in Section 1 of Schedule A of this Agreement (as such schedule may be amended from time to time with Board Approval). Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board
may be taken without a meeting, without notice, and without a vote if all Directors entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter of that action consent to the action in writing (including by e-mail), and the writing or writings are filed with
the minutes of proceedings of the Board.

 Section 6.05 Electronic Communications. Members of the Board may participate in
meetings of the Board, or any committee, by means of telephone conference or similar communications equipment that allows all persons participating in the meeting to hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in

Section 6.06 Compensation of Directors; Expenses. The Directors shall not receive any compensation. However, the Directors shall be reimbursed for
their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of attendance at meetings of the Board. No such payment shall preclude any Director from serving the Company in any other capacity and receiving compensation for those services. 

  
 17 








 Section 6.07 Removal and Resignation of Directors; Vacancies. Without limitation of
Section 6.02(c) above, and unless otherwise restricted by law, any Director may be removed or expelled, with or without cause, at any time solely by the Member that elected, designated, or appointed the Director. Any Director may resign at any
time by giving written notice to the Board. The resignation shall take effect at the time specified in that notice and, unless tendered to take effect upon acceptance of resignation, the acceptance of the resignation shall not be necessary to make
it effective. Any vacancy caused by removal or expulsion of a Director or the resignation of a Director in accordance with this Section 6.07 shall be filled solely by the action of the Member who previously elected, designated, or appointed the

a resolution of the Board expressly authorizing such action which resolution is duly adopted by the Board by the affirmative vote required for such matter pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, a Director may not bind the Company. 

Section 6.09 Duties of Board, BCIC IC Representative and Windward IC Representative. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Director, BCIC IC
Representative, or Windward IC Representative has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating to those duties to the Company or to any Member, the individual acting in good faith pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not be
liable to the Company or to any Member for his or her good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the individual otherwise existing at law
or in equity, are agreed by the parties to this Agreement to replace such other duties and liabilities of the individual. 
 Section 6.10 Reliance
by Third Parties. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any contract, instrument, or act on behalf of the Company by a Member, a Director, an officer, or any other Person delegated by Board Approval or Prior Investment Committee
Approval, as applicable, shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any third party dealing with the Company that the Person has the authority, power, and right to execute and deliver the contract or instrument and to take the act on behalf of the
Company. This Section shall not be deemed to limit the liabilities and obligations of the Person to seek Board Approval or Prior Investment Committee Approval as set forth in this Agreement. 

Section 6.11 Members’ Outside Transactions; Windward Change of Control; Investment Opportunities. 

 

	 	(a)	Each Member shall devote such time and effort as is reasonably necessary to diligently administer the activities and affairs of the Company, but shall not be obligated to spend full time or any specific portion of their
time to the activities and affairs of the Company. 


  
 18 









	 	(b)	Windward must immediately notify BCIC following a transaction or series of transactions that causes a Change of Control of Windward (a “Windward Change of Control”). 


 

	 	(c)	Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Sections 6.11 and other provisions of this Agreement, each of the Members, the Administrative Agent, and each of their respective Affiliates and members may engage in, invest
in, participate in, or otherwise enter into other business ventures of any kind, nature, and description, individually and with others, including the formation and management of other investment funds with or without the same or similar purposes as
the Company, and the ownership of and investment in securities, and neither the Company nor any other Member shall have any right in or to any of those activities or the income or profits derived from those activities. 


Section 6.12 Indemnification. 
  

	 	(a)	Subject to the limitations and conditions as provided in this Section 6.12, each Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending, or completed
action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, or arbitrative or in the nature of an alternative dispute resolution in lieu of any of the foregoing (hereinafter a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in
a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that the Person, or a Person of which the Person is the legal representative, is or was a Member, a Director, BCIC IC Representative, or Windward IC
Representative, or a representative, officer, director, or employee thereof, shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may be amended (but, in the case of any amendment, only to the
extent that the amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the law permitted the Company to provide prior to the amendment) against all liabilities and expenses (including judgments, penalties (including excise and
similar taxes and punitive damages), losses, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees)) actually incurred by the Person in connection with the Proceeding, appeal, inquiry, or
investigation (each a “Loss”), unless the Loss is primarily the result of gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct by the Person seeking indemnification under this Section 6.12, in which case the
indemnification shall not cover the Loss to the extent resulting from gross negligence, fraud, or intentional misconduct. Indemnification under this Section 6.12 shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity
which initially entitled the Person to indemnity under this Section 6.12. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 6.12 shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification, or repeal of this Section 6.12 shall
have the effect of limiting or denying any rights with respect to actions taken or Proceedings, appeals, inquiries, or investigations arising prior to any amendment, modification, or repeal. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no Person entitled
to indemnification under this Section 6.12 shall be liable to the Company or any Member for any act or omission performed or omitted by or on behalf of the Company; provided that the act or omission has not been fully adjudicated to constitute
gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct. In addition, any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.12 may consult with legal counsel selected with reasonable care and shall incur no liability to the Company or any Member
to the extent that the Person acted or refrained from acting in good faith in reliance upon the opinion or advice of that counsel. 


  
 19 









	 	(b)	The right to indemnification conferred in Section 6.12(a) shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company for the reasonable expenses incurred by a Person entitled to be indemnified
under Section 6.12(a) who was, is, or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a Proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding and without any determination as to the Person’s ultimate entitlement
to indemnification; provided, however, that the payment of the expenses incurred by a Person in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of a written undertaking by the Person to repay all
amounts so advanced if it shall be finally adjudicated that the indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 6.12 or otherwise. 


 

	 	(c)	The Company, with Board Approval, may indemnify and advance expenses to an employee or agent of the Company to the same extent and subject to the same conditions under which it may indemnify and advance expenses to
a Member under Sections 6.12(a) and (b). 

  

	 	(d)	The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Section 6.12 shall not be exclusive of any other right that a Member or other Person indemnified pursuant to
this Section 6.12 may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory) or provision of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(e)	The indemnification rights provided by this Section 6.12 shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns of each Person indemnified pursuant to
this Section 6.12. 

 Section 6.13 Tax Matters Member; Partnership Representative. 

 

	 	(a)	For Periods prior to December 31, 2017, BCIC shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Company within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (in that capacity, the “Tax Matters
Member”). The provisions of Section 6.12(a) shall apply to all actions taken on behalf of the Members by the Tax Matters Member in its capacity as the Company’s tax matters partner. The Tax Matters Member shall have the right and
obligation to take all actions authorized and required, respectively, by the Code for the tax matters partner of the Company. The Tax Matters Member shall have the right to retain professional assistance in respect of any audit of the Company and
all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses and fees incurred by the Tax Matters Member on behalf of the Company as Tax Matters Member shall be reimbursed by the Company. In the event the Tax Matters Member receives notice of a final Company
adjustment under Section 6223(a) of the Code, it shall either (i) file a court petition for judicial review of that final adjustment within the period provided under Section 6226(a) of the Code, a copy of which petition shall be
mailed to all Members on the date the petition is filed, or (ii) mail a written notice to all Members within that period that describes its reasons for determining not to file a petition. Each Member shall be a “notice partner” within
the meaning of Section 6231(a)(8) of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Matter Member shall not take any action requiring Board Approval or Prior Investment Committee Approval prior to Board Approval or Prior Investment Committee
Approval, as applicable, being obtained. 


  
 20 









	 	(b)	For periods after December 31, 2017, BCIC is hereby designated as the “partnership representative” within the meaning of as provided in Section 6223 of the Code (and any similar provisions under any
applicable state or local or foreign tax laws) (the “Partnership Representative”). The provisions of Section 6.12(a) shall apply to all actions taken on behalf of the Members by the Partnership Representative in its capacity as the
Company’s partnership representative for any period after December 31, 2017. The Partnership Representative shall have the right and obligation to take all actions authorized and required, respectively, by the Code for the partnership
representative of the Company. The Partnership Representative shall have the right to retain professional assistance in respect of any audit of the Company and all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses and fees incurred by the Partnership
Representative on behalf of the Company as Partnership Representative shall be reimbursed by the Company. In the event the Partnership Representative receives notice of a final Company adjustment under Section 6231 of the Code, it shall either
(i) file a court petition for judicial review of that final adjustment within the period provided under Section 6234(a) of the Code, a copy of which petition shall be mailed to all Members on the date the petition is filed, or
(ii) mail a written notice to all Members within that period that describes its reasons for determining not to file a petition. The Partnership Representative shall provide each Member with the same information such Member would be entitled to
receive for periods prior to December 31, 2017 if such Member were a “notice partner” within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(8) of the Code as in effect for such prior period. In the event any adjustment to any item of income,
gain, loss, deduction or credit of the Partnership, or any Partner’s distributive share thereof, for a “reviewed year” (as defined in Code Section 6226(d)(1)) that would result in an imputed underpayment of the Company under Code
Section 6225, each of the Company (including the Partnership Representative and each Member of the Company for the reviewed year) agrees to timely take all actions under Code Section 6225(c) (and any Treasury Regulations or other IRS
guidance issued thereunder) necessary (including filing amended tax returns) to eliminate such imputed underpayment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership Representative shall not take any action requiring Board Approval or Prior Investment
Committee Approval prior to Board Approval or Prior Investment Committee Approval, as applicable, being obtained.

Section 7.01 Transfers by Members. 
  

	 	(a)	 Subject to the requirements of this Article VII, all or a portion of the Entire Interest of a Member may be
Transferred with Board Approval or all of the Entire Interest of a Member may be Transferred to an Affiliate of the transferring Member who remains liable for the transferring Member’s Capital Commitments. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, without Board Approval, (i) any Member may make a Transfer in accordance with Section 7.01(g) or Section 8.03(e), in each case if the Transfer is otherwise in accordance
with the requirements of this Article VII, and (ii) equityholders in each Member may Transfer or redeem their ownership of such Member, if permitted by such Member, provided, that in the case of Windward, such Transfer or redemption does not

	 	(b)	No Transfer by a Member shall be binding upon the Company until the Company receives an executed copy of the documentation as reasonably requested by the other Member to show the Transfer is in accordance with this
Article VII. 

  

	 	(c)	Any Person which acquires an interest in the Company by Transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be admitted as a substitute Member, provided the requirements of this Agreement are satisfied.
The admission of a transferee as a substitute Member shall be conditioned upon the transferee’s written assumption, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the other Member, of all obligations of the transferor in respect of the

	 	(e)	Any transferee of the interest of a Member, irrespective of whether the transferee has accepted and adopted in writing the terms and provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed by the acceptance of the Transfer to

	 	(iv)	unless the other Member waives in writing the application of this clause (iv) with respect to such assignment (which the other Member may refuse to do in its absolute discretion), be to a Person which is an ERISA
Plan; or 


  
 22 









	 	(v)	cause the Company or the other Member to be in violation of, or effect an assignment to a Person that is in violation of, applicable Investor Laws. 


The non-Transferring Member may require reasonable evidence as to the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v), including an
opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the non-Transferring Member. Any purported Transfer as to which the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v) are not satisfied shall be void ab initio. A Transferring Member shall be
responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by the Company, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, in connection with any assignment or proposed assignment. 
  

	 	(g)	Except for Transfers of all of a Member’s Entire Interest to an Affiliate of the Member who remains liable for the transferring Member’s Capital Commitments, each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
grants to the other Member or its designee a right of first offer to purchase or designate a third party to purchase all, but not less than all, of any interest in the Company that the other Member may propose to Transfer to another Person at the
valuation most recently approved in accordance with Section 9.05. 

  

	 	(i)	The Member proposing to make a Transfer that would be subject to this Section 7.01(g) must deliver written notice of its intention to Transfer the interest (the “Notice of Intent”) to the other
Member not later than thirty (30) days prior to the proposed closing date of the Transfer. The Notice of Intent shall contain the material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer and shall identify the proposed transferee of such
interest, if known. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Member receiving the Notice of Intent shall have the right, for a period of fifteen (15) business days from the date of receipt of the Notice of Intent (the “Acceptance Period”), to accept the
interest or to designate a third-party purchaser to accept the interest at the valuation most recently approved in accordance with Section 9.05 and on the terms stated in the Notice of Intent. The acceptance shall be made by delivering a
written notice to the selling Member and the Company within the Acceptance Period stating that it elects to exercise its right of first offer and, if applicable, providing the identity of any Person that the non-transferring Member designates as the
purchaser. 

  

	 	(iii)	Following expiration of the Acceptance Period, the selling Member shall be free to sell its interest in the Company to a third party in a Transfer (which third party shall be the party identified in the Notice of
Intent, if known by the selling Member) that otherwise meets the requirements of this Section 7.01 on terms and conditions it deems acceptable (but at a price not less than the price and on terms not more favorable to the third-party purchaser
than the price and terms stated in the Notice of Intent); provided that the sale takes place within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Acceptance Period (the “Sale Period”). To the extent the selling Member Transfers
its interest in the Company during the Sale Period, the selling Member shall promptly notify the Company, and the Company shall promptly notify the other Member, as to the terms of the Transfer and the name of each of the owners to whom the interest
was Transferred. If no sale occurs during the Sale Period, then any attempted Transfer of the interest shall again be subject to the right of first offer set forth in this Section 7.01(g) and the procedures of this Section 7.01(g) shall be
repeated de novo.

 Section 7.02 Withdrawal by Members. Members may withdraw from the Company only as provided by this
Agreement. 
  

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if a Member obtains an opinion of counsel to the effect that, as a result of the other Member’s ownership of an interest in the Company, the Company
would be required to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act, then the other Member shall, upon written notice from the first Member, withdraw from or reduce (in accordance with the provisions of clause (c) below) its interest in
the Company (including its Capital Commitment) to the extent that the first Member has determined, based upon the opinion of counsel, to be necessary in order for the Company not to be required to register. Each Member shall, upon written request
from the other Member, promptly furnish to the other Member such information as the other Member may reasonably request from time to time in order to make a determination pursuant to this Section 7.02(a), but in no event later than ten
(10) business days after such request. 

  

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if a Member breaches the Member’s obligation under the immediately following sentence, or if the other Member obtains an opinion of counsel to the
effect that any contribution or payment by a Member to the Company would cause the Company or the other Member to be in violation of, or to the effect that the Member is in violation of, any law or regulation to which the Company, a Member, or the
Member’s investment in the Company may be subject from time to time (collectively, “Investor Laws”) and which violation would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company, then the Member shall, upon
written notice from the other Member, withdraw from the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.02(c). Each Member shall, upon written request from the other Member, promptly furnish to the other Member the information as the
other Member may reasonably request from time to time in order to make a determination pursuant to this Section 7.02(b), but in no event later than ten (10) business days after the request. 


 

	 	(c)	If a Member partially withdraws its interest in the Company pursuant to this Section 7.02, it shall receive, in full payment for the withdrawn interest from cash and cash equivalents available for distribution
pursuant to Article V, the sum of the portion of the Capital Account attributable to the withdrawn interest (adjusted to reflect the Value of the Company as determined as of the date of the last valuation pursuant to
Section 9.05). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Member that is partially withdrawing its interest shall receive the portion of the Capital Account attributable to the withdrawn interest after the distribution of any amounts pursuant to
Section 5.01(b)(i) of this Agreement and prior to the distribution of any amount pursuant to Section 5.01(b)(ii). If a Member withdraws its entire interest in the Company pursuant to this Section 7.02, then the Company shall terminate
as provided by Article VIII.

in cash within ninety (90) days after the Election to Purchase is delivered to the other Member and shall be equal to the Capital Account of the other Member adjusted to reflect the Value of the Company as determined as of the date of the last
valuation pursuant to Section 9.05. Each Member hereby agrees to sell its Entire Interest to the Electing Member or the third party designated by the Electing Member at that price if the Election to Purchase is timely exercised by the Electing
Member. If the Electing Member does not exercise the Election to Purchase within the 15-business day period set forth in this Section 8.02(e) or if the Electing Member or its third-party designee does not purchase the other Member’s Entire
Interest within ninety (90) days after the Election to Purchase is delivered to the other Member, then the Election to Purchase shall terminate, and (i) in the case of a full withdrawal by a Member under Section 8.02(c)(i), the other
