permitted successors and assigns in the trusts hereunder, the “Trustee”). 
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 

The Co-Issuers are duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture to provide for the Notes
issuable as provided in this Indenture. Except as otherwise provided herein, all covenants and agreements made by the Co-Issuers herein are for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties. The Co-Issuers are entering into this Indenture, and the Trustee is accepting the trusts created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged. 

All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Co-Issuers in accordance with the
agreement’s terms have been done. 
 GRANTING CLAUSES 

The Issuer hereby Grants to the Trustee, for the benefit and security of the Holders of the Secured Notes, the Trustee, the Administrator and
the Collateral Administrator (collectively, the “Secured Parties”), all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all property of the Issuer, in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising and
wherever located, including, without limitation, the following property of the Issuer (all such property, excluding the Excepted Property, is collectively referred to as the “Assets”): 

(a) the Collateral Obligations (listed, as of the Closing Date, in Schedule 1 to this Indenture) which the
Issuer causes to be Delivered to the Trustee (directly or through an intermediary or bailee) herewith and all payments thereon or with respect thereto, and all Collateral Obligations which are Delivered to the Trustee in the future pursuant to
the terms hereof and all payments thereon or with respect thereto; 
 (b) each of the Accounts and any Eligible Investments acquired with
funds on deposit therein and all income from the investment of funds therein; 
 (c) [reserved]; 

(d) the Collateral Management Agreement as set forth in Article XV hereof, the Purchase Agreement, the Collateral Administration
Agreement, the Administration Agreement, the AML Services Agreement, the Registered Office Terms, the Master Transfer Agreement and the EU Retention Letter;

(g) any other property otherwise Delivered to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Issuer (whether or not constituting Collateral Obligations or
Eligible Investments); 
 (h) any Equity Securities received by the Issuer;

(i) any lien granted by the BDC to the Issuer pursuant to the Master Transfer Agreement; and 

(j) all proceeds with respect to the foregoing; 

provided that such Grants shall not include amounts (if any) remaining from the U.S.$250 transaction fee paid to the Issuer in consideration of the
issuance of the Notes, the funds attributable to the issuance and allotment of the Issuer’s ordinary shares and the bank account in the Cayman Islands in which such funds are deposited (and any interest thereon) (collectively, the
“Excepted Property”). 
 The above Grant is made to secure the Secured Notes and certain other amounts payable by the
Issuer as described herein. Except as set forth in the Priority of Payments, Article V and Article XIII of this Indenture, the Secured Notes are secured by the Grant equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction
between any Secured Notes and any other Secured Notes by reason of difference in time of issuance or otherwise. Such Grant is made to secure, in accordance with the priorities set forth in the Priority of Payments, Article V and Article

(iii) the payment of amounts owing by the Co-Issuers under the Collateral Management Agreement, the Securities Account Control Agreement and the Collateral Administration Agreement and
(iv) compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, all as provided in this Indenture. The foregoing Grant shall, for the purpose of determining the property subject to the lien of this Indenture, be deemed to include any securities and any
investments granted to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Issuer, whether or not such securities or investments satisfy the criteria set forth in the definitions of “Collateral Obligation” or “Eligible Investments,”
as the case may be. 
 The Trustee acknowledges such Grant, accepts the trusts hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof, and
agrees to perform the duties herein in accordance with the terms hereof.

 “S&P Rating”: With respect to any Collateral Obligation, as of any date of
determination, the rating determined in accordance with the following methodology: 
 (i) (a) if there is an issuer
credit rating of the Obligor of such Collateral Obligation by S&P as published by S&P, or the guarantor which unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees such Collateral Obligation pursuant to a form of guaranty approved by S&P for use in
connection with this transaction, then the S&P Rating shall be such rating (regardless of whether there is a published rating by S&P on the Collateral Obligations of such Obligor held by the Issuer; provided that private ratings
(that is, ratings provided at the request of the Obligor) may be used for purposes of this definition if the related Obligor has consented to the disclosure thereof and a copy of such consent has been provided to S&P) or (b) if there is no
issuer credit rating of the Obligor by S&P but (1) there is a senior secured rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, then the S&P Rating of such Collateral Obligation shall be one
sub-category below such rating; (2) if clause (1) above does not apply, but there is a senior unsecured rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, the S&P Rating of such Collateral
Obligation shall equal such rating; and (3) if neither clause (1) nor clause (2) above applies, but there is a subordinated rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, then the S&P Rating of such Collateral
Obligation shall be one sub-category above such rating; 
 (ii) with respect to any
Collateral Obligation that is a DIP Collateral Obligation, the S&P Rating thereof shall be the credit rating assigned to such issue by S&P; provided that such credit rating shall expire on the earlier of (i) the 12-month anniversary of the date S&P assigned such credit rating to such DIP Collateral Obligation, unless S&P renews such credit rating, in which case, the credit rating shall expire on the 12-month anniversary of the date of renewal and (ii) the date S&P provides notice to the Collateral Manager that the credit quality of such DIP Collateral Obligation has deteriorated since S&P assigned
or renewed such credit rating; 
 (iii) if there is not a rating by S&P on the Obligor or on an obligation of the
Obligor, then the S&P Rating may be determined pursuant to clauses (a) through (c) below: 
 (a) if an
obligation of the Obligor is not a DIP Collateral Obligation and is publicly rated by Moody’s, then the S&P Rating shall be the rating equivalent of the public rating by Moody’s of such Collateral Obligation except that the S&P
Rating of such obligation shall be (1) one sub category below the S&P equivalent of the rating by Moody’s if such rating is “Baa3” or higher and (2) two sub-categories below the
S&P equivalent of the rating by Moody’s if such rating is “Ba1” or lower; 
 (b) subject to the
limitations with respect to Deemed Rated Obligations as set forth in the definition of the term “Concentration Limitations”, the S&P Rating may be based on a credit estimate provided by S&P, and in connection therewith, the Issuer,
the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer or the Obligor of such Collateral Obligation shall, prior to or within 30 days after the acquisition of such Collateral Obligation, apply (and concurrently submit all available Information in respect of
such application) to S&P for a credit estimate which shall 

  
 55 








 
be its S&P Rating; provided that, if such Information is submitted within such 30-day period, then, pending receipt from S&P of such
estimate, such Collateral Obligation shall have an S&P Rating as determined by the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion if the Collateral Manager certifies to the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator that it believes that such S&P
Rating determined by the Collateral Manager is commercially reasonable and that the credit estimate provided by S&P shall be at least equal to such S&P Rating determined by the Collateral Manager; provided, further, that if
such Information is not submitted within such 30-day period, then, pending receipt from S&P of such estimate, the Collateral Obligation shall have (1) the S&P Rating as determined by the
Collateral Manager for a period of up to 90 days after the acquisition of such Collateral Obligation and (2) an S&P Rating of “CCC-” following such
90-day period; unless, during such 90-day period, the Collateral Manager has requested the extension of such period and S&P, in its sole discretion, has granted such
request; provided, further, that if such 90-day period (or other extended period) elapses pending S&P’s decision with respect to such application, the S&P Rating of such Collateral
Obligation shall be “CCC-”; provided, further, that if the Collateral Obligation has had a public rating by S&P that S&P has withdrawn or suspended within six months prior to
the date of such application for a credit estimate in respect of such Collateral Obligation, the S&P Rating in respect thereof shall be “CCC-” pending receipt from S&P of such estimate, and
S&P may elect not to provide such estimate until a period of six months have elapsed after the withdrawal or suspension of the public rating; provided, further, that the S&P Rating may not be determined pursuant to this
clause (b) if the Collateral Obligation is a DIP Collateral Obligation; provided, further, that such credit estimate shall expire 12 months after the acquisition of such Collateral Obligation, following which such Collateral
Obligation shall have an S&P Rating of “CCC-” unless, during such 12-month period, the Issuer applies for renewal thereof in accordance with this
Indenture, in which case such credit estimate shall continue to be the S&P Rating of such Collateral Obligation until S&P has confirmed or revised such credit estimate, upon which such confirmed or revised credit estimate shall be the
S&P Rating of such Collateral Obligation; provided, further, that such confirmed or revised credit estimate shall expire on the next succeeding 12-month anniversary of the date of the
acquisition of such Collateral Obligation and (when renewed annually in accordance with this Indenture) on each 12-month anniversary thereafter; 

(c) with respect to a Collateral Obligation that is not a Defaulted Obligation, the S&P Rating of such Collateral
Obligation shall, at the election of the Issuer (at the direction of the Collateral Manager), be “CCC-” provided (i) neither the Obligor of such Collateral Obligation nor any of its Affiliates
are subject to any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings and (ii) the Obligor has not defaulted on any payment obligation in respect of any debt security or other obligation of the Obligor at any time within the two year period ending on
such date of determination, all such debt securities and other obligations of the Obligor that are pari passu with or senior to the Collateral Obligation are current and the Collateral Manager reasonably expects them to remain current;
provided, further, that the Issuer, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer or the Obligor of such Collateral Obligation shall submit all available Information in respect of such Collateral Obligation to S&P prior to or
within 30 days after the election of the Issuer (at the direction of the Collateral Manager); or 

  
 56 








 (iv) with respect to a DIP Collateral Obligation that has no issue rating by
S&P or a Current Pay Obligation that is rated “D” or “SD” by S&P, the S&P Rating of such DIP Collateral Obligation or Current Pay Obligation, as applicable, shall be, at the election of the Issuer (at the direction of
the Collateral Manager), “CCC” or the S&P Rating determined pursuant to clause (iii)(b) above; 
 provided that for purposes of the
determination of the S&P Rating, (x) if the applicable rating assigned by S&P to an Obligor or its obligations is on “credit watch positive” by S&P, such rating shall be treated as being one
sub-category above such assigned rating and (y) if the applicable rating assigned by S&P to an Obligor or its obligations is on “credit watch negative” by S&P, such rating shall be
treated as being one sub-category below such assigned rating.

event or action; provided that the S&P Rating Agency Condition shall be deemed to be satisfied if (i) no Class of Secured Notes then outstanding is then rated by S&P (including due to the withdrawal by S&P of its rating
on such Notes) or (ii) S&P makes a public announcement or informs the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or the Trustee in writing that (A) it believes that satisfaction of the S&P Rating Agency Condition is not required with respect
to such event or action, (B) its practice is not to give such confirmations or (C) it will not review such event or action for purposes of evaluating whether to confirm the then-current ratings (or Initial Ratings) of the Secured Notes

“Weighted Average Spread”: As of any date, the number determined by dividing (a) the amount equal to (A) the
Aggregate Funded Spread (with respect to all Collateral Obligations that are not Fixed Rate Obligations) plus (B) the Aggregate Unfunded Spread; by an amount equal to the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Floating Rate

 66 








 “Weighted Average Spread Adjustment”: As of any date, a fraction (expressed as a
percentage), the numerator of which is equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Weighted Average Fixed Rate Coupon for such date over 7.00% and (ii) the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Fixed Rate Obligations as of such
date (in each case, excluding the unfunded portion of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations or Revolving Collateral Obligations that are Fixed Rate Obligations), and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Collateral
Obligations that are not Fixed Rate Obligations as of such date. In computing the Weighted Average Spread Adjustment on any date, the Weighted Average Fixed Rate Coupon for such date shall be computed as if the Weighted Average Fixed Rate Coupon
Adjustment was equal to zero. 
 “Zero Coupon Obligation”: Any debt security that by its terms (a) does not bear
interest for all or part of the remaining period that it is outstanding, (b) provides for periodic payments of interest in Cash less frequently than semi-annually or (c) pays interest only at its stated maturity.

the designated articles, sections, sub-sections and other subdivisions of this Indenture. The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this
Indenture as a whole and not to any particular article, section, subsection or other subdivision. 
 Section 1.3 Assumptions as
to Assets and Rules of Construction. In connection with all calculations required to be made pursuant to this Indenture with respect to Scheduled Distributions on any Asset, or any payments on any other assets included in the Assets, with
respect to the sale of and reinvestment in Collateral Obligations, and with respect to the income that can be earned on Scheduled Distributions on such Assets and on any other amounts that may be received for deposit in the Collection Account, the
provisions set forth in this Section 1.3 shall be applied. The provisions of this Section 1.3 shall be applicable to any determination or calculation that is covered by this
Section 1.3, whether or not reference is specifically made to Section 1.3, unless some other method of calculation or determination is expressly specified in the particular provision. 

(a) For purposes of calculating all Concentration Limitations, in both the numerator and the denominator of any component of the Concentration
Limitations, Defaulted Obligations shall be treated as having a Principal Balance equal to the portion of the Principal Collateralization Amount relating to such Defaulted Obligations. Except where expressly referenced herein for inclusion in such
calculations, Defaulted Obligations shall not be included in the calculation of the Collateral Quality Test. 

  
 67 








 (b) If withholding tax is imposed on (i) any late payment fees, prepayment fees or other
similar fees, (ii) any amendment, waiver, consent or extension fees or (iii) commitment fees or other similar fees in respect of Revolving Collateral Obligations and Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations, the Collateral Quality Test and
the Coverage Tests shall be calculated thereafter net of the full amount of such withholding tax unless the related Obligor is required to make “gross-up” payments to the Issuer that cover the full
amount of any such withholding tax on an after-tax basis pursuant to the Underlying Instruments with respect thereto. 

(c) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests, except as otherwise specified in the Coverage Tests, such calculations shall not include
scheduled interest and principal payments on Defaulted Obligations unless or until such payments are actually made. 
 (d) For purposes of
calculating compliance with each of the Concentration Limitations all calculations shall be rounded to the nearest 0.1%. All other calculations, unless otherwise set forth herein or the context otherwise requires, shall be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth if expressed as a percentage, and to the nearest one-hundredth if expressed otherwise. 

(e) For each Collection Period and as of any date of determination, the Scheduled Distribution on any Asset (excluding Defaulted Obligations,
which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have a Scheduled Distribution of zero, except to the extent any payments have actually been received) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and collections
anticipated to be received during such Collection Period in respect of such Asset (including the proceeds of the sale of such Asset received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to be received during the Collection Period and not
reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations or Eligible Investments or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 12.2) that, if paid as scheduled, will be available in the
Collection Account at the end of the Collection Period and (ii) any such amounts received by the Issuer in prior Collection Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Payment Date. 

(f) Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to an Asset shall be assumed to be received on the applicable Due Date, and each such
Scheduled Distribution shall be assumed to be immediately deposited in the Collection Account to earn interest at the Assumed Reinvestment Rate. All such funds shall be assumed to continue to earn interest until the date on which they are required
to be available in the Collection Account for application, in accordance with the terms hereof, to payments of principal of or interest on the Notes or other amounts payable pursuant to this Indenture. For purposes of the applicable determinations
required by Section 10.7(b)(v), Article XII and the definition of “Interest Coverage Ratio”, the expected interest on the Secured Notes and Floating Rate Obligations shall be calculated using the then
current interest rates applicable thereto. 
 (g) All calculations with respect to Scheduled Distributions on the Assets shall be made on the
basis of information as to the terms of each such Asset and upon reports of payments, if any, received on such Asset that are furnished by or on behalf of the Obligor of such Asset and, to the extent they are not manifestly in error, such
information or reports may be conclusively relied upon in making such calculations. 

  
 68 








 (h) References in Section 11.1(a) to calculations made on a
“pro forma basis” shall mean such calculations after giving effect to all payments, in accordance with the Priority of Payments described herein, that precede (in priority of payment) or include the clause in which such calculation is
made. 
 (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, all monetary calculations under this Indenture shall be
in Dollars. 
 (j) Any reference in this Indenture to an amount of the Trustee’s or the Collateral Administrator’s fees calculated
with respect to a period at a per annum rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months prorated for the related Interest Accrual Period
and shall be based on the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Assets (excluding any Assets that constitute Interest Proceeds) as of the first day of the related Collection Period. 

(k) To the extent there is, in the reasonable determination of the Collateral Administrator or the Trustee, any ambiguity in the interpretation
of any definition or term contained in this Indenture or to the extent the Collateral Administrator and/or the Trustee reasonably determine that more than one methodology can be used to make any of the determinations or calculations set forth
herein, the Collateral Administrator and/or the Trustee shall be entitled to request direction from the Collateral Manager as to the interpretation and/or methodology to be used, and the Collateral Administrator and/or the Trustee shall follow such
direction and shall be entitled to conclusively rely thereon without any responsibility or liability therefor. 
 (l) For purposes of
calculating the Weighted Average Spread or Weighted Average Fixed Rate Coupon, (i) a Collateral Obligation that is a Step-Down Obligation shall be treated as having the lowest per annum interest rate or spread over the applicable index or
benchmark rate over the remaining maturity of such Collateral Obligation and (ii) a Collateral Obligation that is a Step-Up Obligation shall be treated as having the then current per annum interest rate
or spread over the applicable index or benchmark rate. 
 (m) For purposes of calculating compliance with any tests under this Indenture, the
trade date (and not the settlement date) with respect to any acquisition or disposition of a Collateral Obligation or Eligible Investment shall be used to determine whether and when such acquisition or disposition has occurred. 

(n) For purposes of determining the Coverage Tests, the Collateral Quality Test and the Concentration Limitations (and related computations of
stated interest coupons and Aggregate Funded Spread), capitalized or deferred interest (and any other interest that is not paid in cash) shall be excluded. 

(o) For purposes of calculating the EU Retained Amount and determining whether an EU Retention Deficiency has occurred, the Principal Balance
of any Asset shall be its Principal Balance in each case without any adjustments for acquisition price or the application of haircuts or other adjustments.

one Note in accordance with this Article II, the original principal amount of such Note shall be proportionately divided among the Notes delivered in exchange therefor and shall be deemed to be the original aggregate principal amount of such
subsequently issued Notes. 
 No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Note a Certificate of Authentication, substantially in the form provided for herein, executed by the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of their authorized signatories, and such
certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Section 2.5 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Issuer shall cause the Notes to be Registered and
shall cause to be kept a register (the “Register”) at the office of the Trustee in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration
of transfers of Notes. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed registrar (the “Registrar”) for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of such Notes with respect to the Register maintained in the United States as herein
provided. Upon any resignation or removal of the Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, in the absence of such appointment, assume the duties of Registrar. 

  
 73 








 If a Person other than the Trustee is appointed by the Issuer as Registrar, the Issuer shall give
the Trustee prompt written notice of the appointment of a Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location, of the Register, and the Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies
thereof and the Trustee shall have the right to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Registrar by an Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the principal or face amounts and numbers of such Notes.
Upon written request at any time the Registrar shall provide to the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the Initial Purchaser or any Holder a current list of Holders (and their holdings) as reflected in the Register. In addition and upon written request
at any time, the Registrar shall provide to the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the Initial Purchaser or any Holder any information the Registrar actually possesses regarding the nature and identity of any beneficial owner of any Note (and its
holdings) and each Holder is deemed to agree by acceptance of its Note that the Registrar shall not have any liability with respect to the release of such information to such Persons as requested. 

Subject to this Section 2.5, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Notes at the office or agency of the
Co-Issuers to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2, the Applicable Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee
or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal or face amount. 
 At the option of
the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for Notes of like terms, in any authorized denominations and of like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Note is surrendered for exchange,
the Applicable Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

All Notes issued and authenticated upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer and,
solely in the case of the Secured Notes, the Co-Issuer, evidencing the same debt (to the extent they evidence debt), and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such
registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible
guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee
program” as may be determined by the Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Exchange Act. 

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Trustee or the Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. The Trustee or the Registrar shall be permitted to request such evidence reasonably satisfactory to it documenting the identity and/or
signatures of the transferor and transferee. 

  
 74 








 (b) No Note may be sold or transferred (including, without limitation, by pledge or
hypothecation) unless such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, is exempt from the registration requirements under applicable state securities laws and will not cause either of the Co-Issuers to become subject to the requirement that it register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. 

(c) No transfer of an interest in the Potential Equity Notes or Subordinated Notes shall be effective, and no such transfer shall be
recognized, if it may result in 25% or more of the value of any Class of Potential Equity Notes or the Subordinated Notes being held by Benefit Plan Investors. For purposes of this determination, the value of Notes held by the Initial
Purchaser, the Trustee, the Collateral Manager and certain of their affiliates (other than those interests held by a Benefit Plan Investor) or a Person (other than a Benefit Plan Investor) who is a Controlling Person is disregarded. The Trustee
shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon the information set forth on the face of the transfer certificates received pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.5 and only Notes that a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge (solely in reliance upon such information) to be so held shall be disregarded. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, the Trustee shall not be responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer complies with, or for otherwise monitoring or determining compliance with, the registration provisions of or any exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable
state securities laws or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction, ERISA, the Code, the Investment Company Act, or the terms hereof; provided that if a certificate is specifically required by the terms of this
Section 2.5 to be provided to the Trustee by a prospective transferor or transferee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to receive and examine the same to determine whether or not the certificate substantially conforms on
its face to the applicable requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly notify the party delivering the same if such certificate does not comply with such terms. 

(e) For so long as any of the Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall not issue or permit the transfer of any ordinary shares of the Issuer to
U.S. persons; provided that this clause shall not apply to issuances and transfers of Subordinated Notes or any other Class of Notes treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(f) Transfers of Global Secured Notes shall only be made in accordance with Section 2.2(b) and this
Section 2.5(f).

 78 








 
Opinion of Counsel acceptable to them, as may be reasonably required by the Applicable Issuers (and which shall by its terms permit reliance by the Trustee), to the effect that neither such
applicable legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of the Securities Act, the Investment Company Act, ERISA or the Code. Upon provision of such satisfactory
evidence, the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent, at the written direction of the Applicable Issuers shall, after due execution by the Applicable Issuers authenticate and deliver Notes that do not bear such applicable legend.

Note, and (b) there is delivered to the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee and such Transfer Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Applicable Issuers, the
Trustee or such Transfer Agent that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Applicable Issuers shall execute and, upon Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, in lieu of any such mutilated, defaced,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal or face amount, registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication, bearing interest from the date to which
interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If, after delivery of such new Note, a protected purchaser of the predecessor Note presents for payment, transfer or exchange such predecessor
Note, the Applicable Issuers, the Transfer Agent and the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such new Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith. 

In case any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become due and payable, the Applicable Issuers in their discretion
may, instead of issuing a new Note pay such Note without requiring surrender thereof except that any mutilated or defaced Note shall be surrendered. 

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.6, the Applicable Issuers may require the payment by the
Holder thereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in lieu of any mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note
shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Applicable Issuers and such new Note shall be entitled, subject to the second paragraph of this Section 2.6, to all the benefits of this Indenture
equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of the same Class duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this
Section 2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 

Section 2.7 Payment of Principal and Interest and Other Amounts; Principal and Interest Rights Preserved. (a) The Secured
Notes of each Class shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the applicable Interest Rate and such interest shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount thereof on the first day of the
related Interest Accrual Period (in each case after giving effect to payments of principal thereof on such date) except as otherwise set forth below. Payment of interest on each Class of Secured Notes (and


  
 82 








 
payments of available Interest Proceeds to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes) shall be subordinated to the payment of interest on each related Priority Class as provided in
Section 11.1. So long as any Priority Class is Outstanding with respect to a Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes, any payment of interest due pursuant to the Priority of Payments on such Class of
Deferred Interest Secured Notes that is not available to be paid (“Deferred Interest”) in accordance with the Priority of Payments on any Payment Date shall not be considered “due and payable” for the purposes of
Section 5.1(a) (and the failure to pay such interest shall not be an Event of Default) until the earliest of (i) the Payment Date on which funds are available to pay such Deferred Interest in accordance with the
Priority of Payments, (ii) the Redemption Date with respect to such Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes and (iii) the Stated Maturity of such Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes. Deferred Interest on any Class of
Deferred Interest Secured Notes shall be added to the principal balance of such Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes, and shall be payable on the first Payment Date on which funds are available to be used for such purpose in accordance with
the Priority of Payments, but in any event no later than the earlier of the Payment Date (i) which is the Redemption Date with respect to such Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes and (ii) which is the Stated Maturity of such
Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes. So long as any Priority Class is Outstanding with respect to a Class of Deferred Interest Secured Notes, to the extent that funds are not available on any Payment Date (other than the
Redemption Date with respect to, or Stated Maturity of, such Class of Notes) to pay previously accrued and related Deferred Interest pursuant to the Priority of Payments, such previously accrued and related Deferred Interest shall not be due
and payable on such Payment Date and any failure to pay such previously accrued and related Deferred Interest on such Payment Date shall not be an Event of Default. Interest shall cease to accrue on each Secured Notes, or in the case of a partial
repayment, on such repaid part, from the date of repayment. To the extent lawful and enforceable, interest on any interest that is not paid when due on any Class A Notes or, if no Class A Notes are Outstanding with respect to the Priority
of Payments, any Class B Notes, or if there are no Class B Notes Outstanding with respect to the Priority of Payments, any Class C Notes shall accrue at the Interest Rate for such Class until paid as provided herein. 

(b) The principal of each Secured Notes of each Class matures at par and is due and payable on the date of the Stated Maturity for such
Class, unless such principal has been previously repaid or unless the unpaid principal of such Secured Notes becomes due and payable at an earlier date by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the payment of principal of each Class of Secured Notes (and payments of Principal Proceeds to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes) may only occur in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Payments of principal on any Class of Secured
Notes, and distributions of Principal Proceeds to Holders of Subordinated Notes, which are not paid, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, on any Payment Date (other than the Payment Date which is the Stated Maturity of such Class of
Notes or any Redemption Date), because of insufficient funds therefor shall not be considered “due and payable” for purposes of Section 5.1(a) until the Payment Date on which such principal may be paid in
accordance with the Priority of Payments or all Priority Classes with respect to such Class have been paid in full. 
 (c) Principal
payments on the Notes shall be made in accordance with the Priority of Payments and Article IX. 

  
 83 








 (d) The Paying Agent shall require the previous delivery of properly completed and signed
applicable tax certifications (generally, in the case of U.S. federal income tax, an IRS Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) in the case of a United States Tax Person or, in the case of the Secured Notes,
the applicable IRS Form W-8 (or applicable successor form) (together with all appropriate attachments) in the case of a Person that is not a United States Tax Person) or other certification acceptable to it to
enable the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and any Paying Agent, as applicable, to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that they may be required to pay, deduct or withhold
from payments in respect of such Note or the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note under any present or future law or regulation of the Cayman Islands, the United States, any other jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing
authority therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements under any such law or regulation and, if instructed by the Issuer, the delivery of any information required under FATCA to determine if the Issuer is subject to withholding or
payments by the Issuer are subject to withholding. The Co-Issuers shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Holders or beneficial owners of the Notes as a result of deduction or withholding
for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges with respect to the Notes. Nothing herein shall be construed to obligate the Paying Agent or the Trustee to determine the duties or liabilities of the
Issuer or any other Person with respect to any tax certification or withholding requirements, or any tax certification or withholding requirements of any jurisdiction, political subdivision or taxing authority outside the United States. 

(e) Payments in respect of interest on and principal of any Secured Note and any payment with respect to any Subordinated Note shall be made by
the Trustee in Dollars to DTC or its designee with respect to a Global Secured Note and to the Holder or its nominee with respect to a Certificated Note, by wire transfer, as directed by the Holder, in immediately available funds to a Dollar account
maintained by DTC or its nominee with respect to a Global Secured Note, and to the Holder or its nominee with respect to a Certificated Note; provided that (1) in the case of a Certificated Note, the Holder thereof shall have provided
written wiring instructions to the Trustee on or before the related Record Date and (2) if appropriate instructions for any such wire transfer are not received by the related Record Date, then such payment shall be made by check drawn on a U.S.
bank mailed to the address of the Holder specified in the Register. Upon final payment due on the Maturity of a Note, the Holder thereof shall present and surrender such Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office of any
Paying Agent on or prior to such Maturity; provided that if the Trustee and the Applicable Issuers shall have been furnished such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless and an undertaking thereafter to
surrender such certificate, then, in the absence of notice to the Applicable Issuers or the Trustee that the applicable Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, such final payment shall be made without presentation or surrender, in
accordance with the payment instructions previously provided by such Holder to the Trustee. None of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, nor any Paying Agent shall have any responsibility or
liability for any aspects of the records maintained by DTC, Euroclear, Clearstream or any of the Agent Members relating to or for payments made thereby on account of beneficial interests in a Global Secured Note. In the case where any final payment
of principal and interest is to be made on any Secured Note (other than on the Stated Maturity thereof) or any final payment is to be made on any Subordinated Note (other than on the Stated Maturity thereof), the Trustee, in the name and at the
expense of the Applicable Issuers shall, prior to the date on which such payment is to be made, mail (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Persons entitled thereto at their addresses appearing on the Register a notice which shall
specify the date on which such payment will be made, the amount of such payment per U.S.$1,000 original principal amount of Secured Notes, original principal amount of Subordinated Notes and the place where such Notes may be presented and
surrendered for such payment. 

  
 84 








 (f) Payments of principal to Holders of the Secured Notes of each Class shall be made in the
proportion that the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Secured Notes of such Class registered in the name of each such Holder on the applicable Record Date bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Secured Notes of such Class on
such Record Date. Payments to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes from Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds shall be made in the proportion that the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Subordinated Notes registered in the name of each such
Holder on the applicable Record Date bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Subordinated Notes on such Record Date. 
 (g) Interest
accrued with respect to the Floating Rate Notes shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Accrual Period divided by 360. Interest accrued with respect to the Fixed Rate Notes shall be calculated
on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

(h) All reductions in the principal amount of a Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of installments of principal
made on any Payment Date or Redemption Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of such Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on
such Note. 
 (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the obligations of the Issuer, under the Notes and the Transaction
Documents, are limited recourse obligations thereof, respectively, and, in the case of the Secured Notes, non-recourse obligations of the Co-Issuer, in each case payable
solely from the Assets, and following realization of the Assets and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with this Indenture, all obligations of and any claims hereunder or in connection herewith against the owner of such Assets after
such realization thereof shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. Upon the extinguishment of the obligations of the Issuer hereunder, all obligations of and any claims hereunder or in connection herewith against the Co-Issuer relating to the Secured Notes shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had against any Officer, director, employee, shareholder, authorized person or incorporator of the Co-Issuers, the Collateral Manager or their respective Affiliates, successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Notes or the Transaction Documents. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph (i) shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Assets for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Assets or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness
or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture until such Assets have been realized. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (i) shall not limit the right of any Person to name any of the Co-Issuers as a party defendant in any Proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, 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 any such Person or entity. The Subordinated Notes are not secured hereunder. 

  
 85 








 (j) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7, each Note
delivered under this Indenture and upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to unpaid interest and principal (or other applicable amount) that were carried by such other Note. 

Section 2.8 Persons Deemed Owners. The Co-Issuers, the Trustee, and any agent of the Co-Issuers or the Trustee shall treat as the owner of each Note the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Register on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of
and interest on such Note and on, other than as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, any other date for all other purposes whatsoever (whether or not such Note is overdue), and none of the
Co-Issuers, the Trustee or any agent of the Co-Issuers or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Section 2.9 Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption, or deemed lost or
stolen, shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee and may not be reissued or resold. No Note may be surrendered (including any surrender in connection with any abandonment) except for payment as provided herein, or for registration of transfer or
exchange, or for redemption in accordance with Article IX hereof (in the case of Special Redemption, Effective Date-Related Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption, only to the extent that such Special Redemption, Effective Date-Related
Redemption or Mandatory Redemption results in payment in full of the applicable Class of Notes), or for replacement in connection with any Note deemed lost or stolen. Any Notes surrendered for cancellation as permitted by this
Section 2.9 shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this
Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes held by the Trustee shall be destroyed or held by the Trustee in accordance with its standard policy unless the Applicable Issuers shall
direct by an Issuer Order received prior to destruction that they be returned to it. 
 Section 2.10 DTC Ceases to be Depository.
(a) A Global Secured Note deposited with DTC pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be transferred in the form of a corresponding Certificated Note to the beneficial owners thereof only if (A) such transfer complies
with Section 2.5 of this Indenture and (B) either (x) (i) DTC notifies the Applicable Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for such Global Secured Note or (ii) DTC ceases
to be a Clearing Agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Co-Issuers within 90 days after such event or (y) an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and such transfer is requested by any beneficial owner of an interest in such Global Secured Note. 
 (b) Any
Global Secured Note that is transferable in the form of a corresponding Certificated Note to the beneficial owner thereof pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be surrendered by DTC to the Trustee’s office located in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Applicable Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of
such Global Secured Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive physical certificates (pursuant to the instructions of DTC) in authorized denominations. Any Certificated Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Secured
Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.5, bear the legends set forth in the applicable Exhibit A and shall be subject to the transfer restrictions referred to in such legends. 

  
 86 








 (c) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this
Section 2.10, the Holder of a Global Secured Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which such Holder
is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. 
 (d) In the event of the occurrence of either of the events specified in
subsection (a) of this Section 2.10, the Co-Issuers shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Certificated Notes. 

If Certificated Notes are not so issued by the Applicable Issuers to such beneficial owners of interests in Global Secured Notes as required
by subsection (a) of this Section 2.10, the Co-Issuers expressly acknowledge that the beneficial owners shall be entitled to pursue any remedy that the Holders of a Global
Secured Note would be entitled to pursue in accordance with Article V of this Indenture (but only to the extent of such beneficial owner’s interest in the Global Secured Note) as if corresponding Certificated Notes had been issued;
provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate of ownership provided by such beneficial owners (including a certificate in the form of Exhibit C) and/or other forms of reasonable evidence of
such ownership. 
 Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of directions from the depository and
may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such direction as to the names of the beneficial owners in whose names such Certificated Notes shall be registered or as to delivery instructions for such Certificated Notes. 

Section 2.11 Non-Permitted Holders. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of a beneficial interest in any Note to a U.S. person that is not a QIB/QP (other than a U.S. person that is an Institutional Accredited Investor and is also a Qualified Purchaser or a corporation,
partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) shall be null and void and any such purported transfer of which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall have notice may be disregarded by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee for all purposes. 

(b) If (x) any U.S. person that is not both (i) either a Qualified Institutional Buyer or an Institutional Accredited Investor and
(ii) a Qualified Purchaser (or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) shall become the Holder or
beneficial owner of an interest in any Note, (y) any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes shall fail to comply with its Holder Tax Obligations or the Issuer determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such Holder or beneficial owner’s
acquisition, ownership or transfer of the Notes otherwise prevents the Issuer from achieving Tax Account Reporting Rules Compliance or (z) in the reasonable determination of the Issuer, any beneficial owner of a Potential Equity Note or a
Subordinated Note is not a United States Tax Person (any such Person, a “Non-Permitted Holder”), the acquisition of Notes (other than under clause (y)) by such Holder or beneficial owner shall
be null and void ab initio. The Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall, 

  
 87 








 
promptly after discovery that such Person is a Non-Permitted Holder by the Issuer or the Trustee (and notice by the Trustee (if a Trust Officer of the
Trustee obtains actual knowledge), the Co-Issuer to the Issuer, if any of them makes the discovery), send notice to such Non-Permitted Holder demanding that such Non-Permitted Holder transfer its interest in the Notes held by such Person to a Person that is not a Non-Permitted Holder within 30 days after the date of such notice. If
such Non-Permitted Holder fails to so transfer such Notes, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager acting for the Issuer shall have the right, without further notice to the
Non-Permitted Holder, to sell such Notes or interest in such Notes to a purchaser selected by the Issuer that is not a Non-Permitted Holder on such terms as the Issuer
may choose. The Issuer, or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer, may select the purchaser by soliciting one or more bids from one or more brokers or other market professionals that regularly deal in securities similar to the Notes
and sell such Notes to the highest such bidder; provided that the Collateral Manager, its Affiliates and accounts, funds, clients or portfolios established and controlled by the Collateral Manager shall be entitled to bid in any such sale.
However, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager may select a purchaser by any other means determined by it in its sole discretion. The Holder of each Note, the Non-Permitted Holder and each other Person in the
chain of title from the Holder to the Non-Permitted Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the Notes, agrees to cooperate with the Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the Trustee to effect such transfers.
The proceeds of such sale, net of any commissions, expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale shall be remitted to the Non-Permitted Holder. The terms and conditions of any sale under this sub-section shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and none of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee or the Collateral Manager shall be liable to any Person
having an interest in the Notes sold as a result of any such sale or the exercise of such discretion. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of a beneficial interest in any Note to a Person who has made an ERISA-related representation required by Section 2.5 that is subsequently shown to be false or
misleading shall be null and void and any such purported transfer of which the Co-Issuers or the Trustee shall have notice may be disregarded by the Co-Issuers and the
Trustee for all purposes. 
 (d) If any Person shall become the Holder or beneficial owner of an interest in any Note who has made or is
deemed to have made a prohibited transaction, Benefit Plan Investor, Controlling Person, Similar Law or Other Plan Law representation required by Section 2.5 that is subsequently shown to be false or misleading or
whose beneficial ownership otherwise causes a violation of the 25% Limitation (any such person a “Non-Permitted ERISA Holder”), the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer)
shall, promptly after discovery that such person is a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder by the Issuer or upon notice from the Trustee (if a Trust Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge), the Co-Issuer to the Issuer, if any of them makes the discovery and who, in each case, agree to notify the Issuer of such discovery, send notice to such Non-Permitted ERISA Holder
demanding that such Non-Permitted ERISA Holder transfer all or any portion of the Notes held by such Person to a Person that is not a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder within
14 days after the date of such notice. If such Non-Permitted ERISA Holder fails to so transfer such Notes the Issuer shall have the right, without further notice to the
Non-Permitted ERISA Holder, to sell such Notes or interest in such Notes to a purchaser selected by the Issuer that is not a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder on such terms as
the Issuer may choose. The Issuer may select the purchaser by soliciting one or more bids from one or more brokers or other market professionals that regularly deal in securities similar to the Notes and sell such Notes to the highest


  
 88 








 
such bidder. The Holder and beneficial owner of each Note, the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder and each other Person in the chain of title from the Holder to
the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the Notes agrees to cooperate with the Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the Trustee to effect such transfers. The proceeds of such sale,
net of any commissions, expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale shall be remitted to the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder. The terms and conditions of any sale under this subsection shall be
determined in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and none of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee or the Collateral Manager shall be liable to any Person having an interest in the Notes sold as a result of any such
sale or the exercise of such discretion. 
 Section 2.12 Treatment and Tax Certification and AML Compliance. (a) The Co-Issuers and the Trustee agree, and each Holder and each beneficial owner of a Secured Note, by acceptance of such Secured Note or an interest in such Secured Note shall be deemed to have agreed, to treat, and
shall treat, the Secured Notes as debt for U.S. federal and, to the extent permitted by law, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, to the extent such Secured Notes are treated as outstanding for such purposes, and shall take no action
inconsistent with such treatment, unless required by any relevant taxing authority. The Co-Issuers shall also treat the Secured Notes as debt for legal, accounting and ratings purposes. 

(b) The Issuer and the Trustee agree, and each Holder and each beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note, by acceptance of such Subordinated Note
or an interest in such Subordinated Note shall be deemed to have agreed, to treat, and shall treat, the Subordinated Notes as equity in the Issuer for U.S. federal and, to the extent permitted by law, state and local income and franchise tax
purposes and shall take no action inconsistent with such treatment unless required by any relevant taxing authority. 
 (c) Each Holder and
beneficial owner of a Note, by acceptance of such Note or an interest in such Note, shall be deemed to understand and acknowledge that failure to provide the Issuer, the Trustee or any Paying Agent with the properly completed and signed applicable
tax certifications (generally, in the case of U.S. federal income tax, an IRS Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) in the case of a United States Tax Person or, in the case of the Secured Notes (other than
the Potential Equity Notes), the applicable IRS Form W-8 (or applicable successor form) (together with all appropriate attachments) in the case of a Person that is not a United States Tax Person) may result in
withholding from payments in respect of such Note, including U.S. federal withholding or backup withholding. 
 (d) Each purchaser,
beneficial owner and subsequent transferee of a Note or interest therein, by acceptance of such Note or an interest in such Note, shall be deemed to have agreed to provide the Issuer, the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, any relevant intermediary or
other agent of the Issuer any information or documentation, to correct and update such information and to take such action that is necessary or helpful (in the sole determination of the Issuer) for the Issuer to achieve Tax Account Reporting Rules
Compliance (“Holder Tax Obligations”). Each purchaser and subsequent transferee of Notes will be required or deemed to acknowledge that the Issuer may provide such information and any other information concerning its investment in
the Notes to the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority, the IRS and any other relevant taxing authority. Each purchaser, beneficial owner and subsequent transferee of Notes will be required or deemed to acknowledge that the Issuer has the right,
hereunder, to compel any purchaser, 

  
 89 








 
beneficial owner and subsequent transferee of an interest in a Note that fails to comply with the foregoing requirements to sell its interest in such Note following the procedures and timeframe
relating to Non-Permitted Holders specified in Section 2.11(b). The Issuer may also assign such Notes a separate CUSIP or CUSIPs in the Issuer’s sole discretion. In addition,
each holder of Notes (or any interest therein) will be required or deemed to understand and acknowledge that the Issuer has the right under this Indenture to withhold from any holder or beneficial owner of an interest in Secured Notes that fails to
comply with its Holder Tax Obligations. 
 (e) Each Holder or beneficial owner of an interest in Secured Notes shall represent, warrant and
covenant that, if it is not a United States Tax Person, it is not, and will not be, a member of an “expanded group” (within the meaning of the Section 385 Rules) that includes a domestic corporation (as determined for U.S. federal
income tax purposes) if (i) such domestic corporation, directly or indirectly (through one or more entities that are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as partnerships, disregarded entities, or grantor trusts), owns Subordinated Notes
and (ii) (A) the Issuer is a “controlled partnership” (within the meaning of the regulations issued under the Section 385 Rules) with respect to such expanded group or (B) the Issuer is an entity disregarded as separate from
either such domestic corporation or an entity that is treated as a “controlled partnership” (within the meaning of the regulations issued under the Section 385 Rules) with respect to such expanded group; provided that such
beneficial owner may acquire Secured Notes in violation of this restriction if it provides the Issuer with an opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to
the effect that the acquisition or transfer of Secured Notes will not cause such Secured Notes to be treated as equity under the Section 385 Rules. 

(f) Each purchaser, beneficial owner and subsequent transferee of a Note or interest therein will provide the Issuer or its agents with such
information and documentation that may be required for the Issuer to achieve AML Compliance and shall update or replace such information or documentation, as may be necessary (the “Holder AML Obligations”). 

(g) If a Holder of a Note fails for any reason to (i) comply with the Holder AML Obligations, (ii) such information or documentation
is not accurate or complete, or (iii) the Issuer otherwise reasonably determines that such Holder’s acquisition, holding or transfer of an interest in any Note would cause the Issuer to be unable to achieve AML Compliance, the Issuer (or
any intermediary on its behalf) shall have the right to (x) compel the relevant Holder to sell its interest in such Note or (y) sell such interest on such Holder’s behalf. The Issuer shall not compel sales for failure to provide such
other information or documentation as may be required under the Cayman AML Regulations unless the Issuer reasonably determines the Holder’s acquisition, holding or transfer of an interest in such Note would result in a materially adverse effect
on the Issuer. 
 (h) Each Holder and beneficial owner of a Potential Equity Note or a Subordinated Note, by acceptance of such Potential
Equity Note or Subordinated Note (or an interest therein), shall be deemed to have agreed to provide any transferee of such Note a certification that it is a United States Tax Person in accordance with Section 1446(f)(2) of the Code and any
applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder such that the transferee will not be obligated to withhold under Section 1446(f)(1) of the Code, and it shall provide such forms, documentation, proof of payment or other certifications as reasonably
required by the Issuer or the Trustee to determine that such transferee has complied with Section 1446(f) of the Code (ignoring for this purpose Section 1446(f)(4) of the Code), and any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. law. Each Holder agrees that the Issuer or the Trustee may provide such information and any other information concerning its investment in such Note to the IRS. 

  
 90 








 (i) Each Person (other than the Depositor) who becomes a beneficial owner of Potential Equity
Notes and the Subordinated Notes shall represent, warrant and agree that (x) such Person is not and will not be treated as a Flowthrough Entity or (y) if such Person is, or becomes, a Flowthrough Entity, none of the direct or indirect
beneficial owners of any interest in such Person has, or will have, 40% or more of the value of its interest in such Person attributable to the aggregate interest of such Person in the Potential Equity Notes and the Subordinated Notes (each person
that is described in, and makes the representation in either clause (x) or (y), a “Direct Tax Owner” with respect to the Potential Equity Notes or the Subordinated Notes); unless written advice of Milbank LLP or Dechert LLP, or
an opinion of other tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States experienced in such matters is delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to the effect that such transfer will not
cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. 
 (j) No transfer, sale, assignment,
participation, pledge or other disposition (a “Transfer”) of an interest in the Subordinated Notes or Potential Equity Notes (or any derivative interest therein) shall be effective, and no such transfer shall be recognized, if
(i) such Transfer results in there being more than 98 Direct Tax Owners in the aggregate of the Subordinated Notes and Potential Equity Notes or such Transfer would otherwise cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership as
defined in Section 7704(b) of the Code or (ii) such Notes are Transferred on or through (A) an established securities market or (B) a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of
Section 7704(b) of the Code (and the Treasury Regulations thereunder), unless written advice of Milbank LLP or Dechert LLP, or an opinion of other tax counsel nationally recognized standing in the United States experienced in such matters is
delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to the effect that such acquisition, ownership or Transfer will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation.

 (k) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no transfer of an interest in the Subordinated Notes shall be effective if
such transfer would result in the BDC and/or the Depositor holding less than a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, and any such purported transfer shall be void ab initio. 

(l) Each Holder of Secured Notes that are not Potential Equity Notes (or any interest therein) that is not a United States Tax Person will
make, or by acquiring such Secured Notes will be deemed to make, a representation to the effect that either (A) it is not a bank (or an entity affiliated with a bank) extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of its trade or business (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code), a 10% shareholder of the issuer of such Secured Notes (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3) of
the Code, or a controlled foreign corporation within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code that is related to the issuer of such Secured Notes (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)
of the Code, (B) it has provided an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor form)


  
 91 








 
representing that it is a person that is eligible for benefits under an income tax treaty with the United States that eliminates U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. source interest not
attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States, or (C) it has provided an IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form) representing that all payments received or to be received by it on such
Secured Notes are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. 
 (m) Each Holder and beneficial owner
of a Potential Equity Note or a Subordinated Note represents and warrants that it is a United States Tax Person and shall provide to the Issuer and the Trustee (and any of their agents) with a properly completed and signed IRS Form W-9 (or applicable successor form). Each Holder and beneficial owner agrees and acknowledges that the failure to provide such form may result in withholding from payments in respect of the Potential Equity Notes or
the Subordinated Notes (as applicable), including U.S. federal withholding or backup withholding, and that any purported transfers made in violation of the foregoing requirements shall be void ab initio. 

(n) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, (i) no Secured Notes may be transferred by a Person from which
the Issuer is disregarded as separate for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless written advice from Milbank LLP or Dechert LLP, or an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to
the effect that any Secured Note so transferred will be characterized as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes immediately following such transfer, and (ii) no Subordinated Notes may be transferred by a Person from which the Issuer is
disregarded as separate for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless written advice from Milbank LLP or Dechert LLP, or an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to the effect
that any Secured Notes held by such Person will be characterized as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes immediately following such transfer. 

Section 2.13 Additional Issuance. (a) At any time during the Reinvestment Period, the Applicable Issuers may issue and sell
Additional Notes of any one or more existing Classes and the Issuer may use the proceeds to acquire additional Collateral Obligations or as otherwise permitted under this Indenture; provided that the following conditions are met: 

(i) the Collateral Manager consents to such issuance and such issuance is directed or approved by a Majority of the
Subordinated Notes; 
 (ii) the terms of the Additional Notes issued must be identical to the respective terms of previously
issued Notes of the applicable Class (except that the interest due on additional Secured Notes will accrue from the issue date of such additional Secured Notes and the price of such Additional Notes does not have to be identical to the price of the
initial Notes of that Class and the interest rate of such Notes may be lower than the interest rate of the initial Notes); 

(iii) unless only additional Subordinated Notes are being issued, Additional Notes of all Classes must be issued and such
issuance of Additional Notes must be proportional across all Classes; provided that the principal amount of Subordinated Notes issued in any such issuance may exceed the proportion otherwise applicable to the Subordinated Notes; 

  
 92 








 (iv) unless only additional Subordinated Notes are being issued, the S&P
Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to any Secured Notes not constituting part of such additional issuance; 

(v) the proceeds of any Additional Notes (net of fees and expenses incurred in connection with such issuance, which fees and
expenses shall be paid solely from the proceeds of such additional issuance) shall be treated as Principal Proceeds and used to acquire additional Collateral Obligations, to invest in Eligible Investments or to apply pursuant to the Priority of
Payments; 
 (vi) written advice from Milbank LLP or Dechert LLP or an Opinion of Counsel from tax counsel shall be delivered
to the Issuer (with a copy to the Trustee), in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to the effect that (A) any additional Secured Notes will be debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (B) the additional issuance
will not result in the Issuer being treated as an association or a publicly traded partnership, in either case, taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or becoming subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to its net
income (including any tax imposed under Section 1446 of the Code) other than by operation of Chapter 63 of the Code; provided that the advice or opinion described in clause (A) will not be required with respect to any Additional

advice of Dechert LLP or an opinion of other tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States experienced in such matters is delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Manager, to the effect that

as described above shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, be offered first to Holders of that Class in such amounts as are necessary to preserve their pro rata holdings of Notes of such Class (unless such issuance is of additional
Subordinated Notes that are required to prevent or cure an EU Retention Deficiency). In connection with an additional issuance, the Collateral Manager (or an Affiliate thereof) shall have the right to acquire one or more Notes of one or more Classes
if the Collateral Manager determines such acquisition is advisable to comply with the U.S. Risk Retention Rules. 
 (c) Upon the purchase of
Additional Notes, a purchaser shall be deemed to be a Holder of the relevant Class of Notes for all purposes under this Indenture. 

Section 2.14 Key Person Event. (a) A “Key Person Event” shall occur if the Class A-1 Notes remain
Outstanding and Brent Humphries and any two other Founding Members (or any Approved Replacement therefor) (each, a “Key Person”) are no longer acting in a management capacity at ABPCI or otherwise cease to have a substantial role in
managing the Collateral Obligations (a “Key Person Trigger”) and such persons have not been replaced with one or more Approved Replacements in accordance with the procedures and time limits set forth below. 

  
 94 








 (b) The Collateral Manager shall give prompt written notice to the Issuer, the Rating Agency and
the Trustee if any Key Person is no longer acting in a management capacity at ABPCI and does not otherwise have a substantial role in managing the Collateral Obligations and if any Key Person Trigger has occurred, and the Trustee shall promptly
forward such notice to the Holders of the Notes. Within 90 days (or such extended period as described below) of the occurrence of any event described in the immediately preceding sentence (the “Proposal Period”), the Collateral
Manager shall have the right to propose a replacement for any such Key Person(s) (each, a “Proposed Replacement”) by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee (who shall forward such notice promptly to the Holders of the Notes),
which notice will include background information regarding the Proposed Replacement(s) (including, without limitation, relevant employment history and management experience) and a schedule for implementation of such Proposed Replacement(s). The
Collateral Manager shall make each such Proposed Replacement reasonably available for meetings and/or telephonic conferences with and to respond to questions from the Issuer and Holders and beneficial owners of Notes. 

(c) Within the 15 day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Holders of the Notes from the Trustee of any proposal for a Proposed
Replacement (the “Approval Period”), a Majority of the Controlling Class shall have the right to approve or disapprove (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) such Proposed Replacement. If a Majority of the Controlling
Class provides its affirmative written consent to the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or the Trustee within the Approval Period, the Collateral Manager may appoint such Proposed Replacement (any such replacement appointed in accordance with this
procedure, an “Approved Replacement”). In the event that any Proposed Replacement is affirmatively disapproved in writing by a Majority of the Controlling Class, the Collateral Manager may propose additional replacements during the
Proposal Period pursuant to the procedures set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph; provided that if such additional Proposed Replacement(s) has been disapproved in writing by a Majority of the Controlling Class during the
applicable Approval Period in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, then (until a replacement has been approved) the Collateral Manager may continue to propose Proposed Replacements until the end of the Proposal Period. If a
Majority of the Controlling Class does not affirmatively approve or disapprove a Proposed Replacement within the Approval Period, such Proposed Replacement will be deemed to be an Approved Replacement. In addition, if one or more Key Persons
are no longer acting in a management capacity at ABPCI and do not otherwise have a substantial role in managing the Collateral Obligations but no Key Person Trigger has occurred and a Majority of the Controlling Class has disapproved a Proposed
Replacement such that no Approved Replacement has been appointed, the Collateral Manager may continue to solicit the required consent by submitting additional Proposed Replacements to the Trustee, which will start a new “Proposal Period”
solely with respect to such removed Key Person. The Issuer shall provide prompt notice of any Approved Replacement to the Trustee (who shall forward a copy to the Holders of the Notes). 

(d) If a Key Person Trigger has occurred and the requisite number of Approved Replacements are not appointed on or prior to the last day of the
Approval Period (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may not be later than 105 days after the occurrence of such Key Person Trigger) related to the final Proposed Replacement proposed during the related Proposal Period, then a Key Person Event shall
have occurred and the Issuer shall promptly provide notice of such Key Person Event to the Trustee (who shall forward a copy to the Holders of the Notes) and the Rating Agency. 

  
 95 








 (e) For purposes of the appointment of an Approved Replacement as described above, any Notes of
the Controlling Class that constitute Collateral Manager Obligations will be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding.

limitation, the Priority of Payments, to the payment of principal and interest (or other amounts with respect to the Subordinated Notes), either directly or through any Paying Agent, as the Trustee may determine; and such Cash and obligations shall
be held in a segregated account identified as being held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties. 
 Section 4.3 Repayment
of Monies Held by Paying Agent. In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes, all Monies then held by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee under the provisions of this Indenture shall, upon
demand of the Co-Issuers, be paid to the Trustee to be held and applied pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof and in accordance with the Priority of Payments and thereupon such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such Monies.

requirements described under Section 7.18 is not an Event of Default, except in either case to the extent provided in clause (g) below), or the failure of any material representation or warranty of the Issuer or
the Co-Issuer made in this Indenture or in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith to be correct in each case in all material respects when the same shall have been

 (g) for any reason the EoD Overcollateralization Ratio is
less than or equal to 102.5% as of any Measurement Date and remains so for 10 Business Days after such Measurement Date. 
 Upon obtaining
knowledge of the occurrence of an Event of Default, each of (i) the Co-Issuers, (ii) the Trustee and (iii) the Collateral Manager shall notify each other in writing. Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall, not later than three Business Days thereafter, notify the Holders (as their names appear on the Register), each Paying Agent, the Collateral Manager, the Co-Issuers and the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) of such Event of Default in writing (unless such Event of Default has been waived as provided in
Section 5.14). 
 Section 5.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) If an Event
of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(e) or (f)), the Trustee may, and shall, upon the written direction of a Majority of the Controlling Class, by notice
to the Applicable Issuers (subject to Section 14.3(c), which notice the Issuer shall provide to the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) and the Collateral Manager, declare (x) the
principal of the Secured Notes in the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(a), (b), (c), (d) or (g); and (y) all other amounts whatsoever payable by the
Applicable Issuers pursuant to the Priority of Payments to be immediately due and payable, and upon any such declaration such principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other amounts payable by the Issuer hereunder in
accordance with the Priority of Payments, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(e) or (f) occurs, all such unpaid principal, together with all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, of all of the Secured Notes, and all other amounts payable thereunder and hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 

(b) At any time after such a declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the Money due
has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article V, a Majority of the Controlling Class, by written notice to the Co-Issuers and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such
declaration and its consequences if: 

  
 107 








 (i) The Issuer or the Co-Issuer has paid
or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 
 (A) all unpaid installments of interest and principal then due on
the Secured Notes (other than any principal amounts due to the occurrence of an acceleration); 
 (B) to the extent that the
payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon any Deferred Interest at the applicable Interest Rate; and 
 (C) in
accordance with the Priority of Payments, all unpaid Taxes and Administrative Expenses and other sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder or by the Collateral Administrator under the Collateral Administration Agreement or hereunder owing,
accrued and unpaid Collateral Management Fees (unless waived by the Collateral Manager) and any other amounts then payable Co-Issuers hereunder prior to such Administrative Expenses and such Collateral
Management Fees; and 
 (ii) It has been determined that all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the interest on
or principal of Secured Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have (A) been cured, and a Majority of the Controlling Class, by written notice to the Trustee, has agreed with such determination (which agreement shall not be
unreasonably withheld), or (B) been waived as provided in Section 5.14. 
 No such rescission shall affect
any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement
by Trustee. The Applicable Issuers covenant that if a default shall occur in respect of the payment of any principal of or interest when due and payable on any Secured Notes, the Applicable Issuers shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Holder of such Secured Notes, the whole amount, if any, then due and payable on such Secured Notes for principal and interest with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payments of such interest
shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the applicable Interest Rate, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel. 
 If the Applicable Issuers fail to pay such
amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may, and shall, subject to the terms of this Indenture (including Section 6.3(e)) upon direction of a Majority of the
Controlling Class, institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Applicable Issuers or any other obligor upon the Secured
Notes and collect the Monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the Assets. 

  
 108 








 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion, and shall,
subject to the terms of this Indenture (including Section 6.3(e)) upon written direction of the Majority of the Controlling Class, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Secured Parties by such
appropriate Proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual (if no such direction is received by the Trustee) or as the Trustee may be directed by the Majority of the Controlling Class, to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for
the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 

In case there shall be pending Proceedings relative to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Secured Notes under the Bankruptcy Law or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official
shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or their respective property or such other obligor or its property, or in case of any other comparable Proceedings relative to the
Issuer or the Co-Issuer or other obligor upon the Secured Notes, or the creditors or property of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or such other obligor, the Trustee,
regardless of whether the principal of any Secured Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and regardless of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 5.3, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and
prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Secured Notes upon direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses
and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Secured Noteholders allowed in any Proceedings relative to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or other obligor upon the Secured Notes or to the creditors or property of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or such other obligor; 

(b) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Secured Noteholders upon the direction of a Majority of the
Controlling Class, in any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency Proceedings or person performing similar functions in comparable Proceedings; and 

(c) to collect and receive any Monies or other property payable to or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute all amounts received
with respect to the claims of the Holders and of the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver or liquidator, custodian or other similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Secured Noteholders to make payments to the Trustee, and,
if the Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Secured Noteholders to pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective
agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith. 

  
 109 








 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or
vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Secured Noteholders, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Secured Notes or any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of
any Secured Noteholders, as applicable, in any such Proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar person. 

In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Secured Notes (and any such Proceedings involving the interpretation
of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Secured Notes. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Assets
or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.3 except according to the provisions specified in Section 5.5(a). 

Section 5.4 Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Secured Notes have been declared due
and payable and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Co-Issuers agree that the Trustee may, and shall, subject to the terms of this Indenture (including Sections
5.5 and 6.3(e)), upon written direction of a Majority of the Controlling Class, to the extent permitted by applicable law, exercise one or more of the following rights, privileges and remedies: 

(i) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Secured Notes or otherwise payable under this
Indenture, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Assets any Monies adjudged due; 

(ii) sell or cause the sale of all or a portion of the Assets or rights or interests therein, at one or more public or private
sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law and in accordance with Section 5.17 hereof; 

(iii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the
Assets; 
 (iv) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and
enforce the rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders of the Secured Notes hereunder (including exercising all rights of the Trustee under the Securities Account Control Agreement); and 

(v) exercise any other rights and remedies that may be available at law or in equity; 

provided that the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Assets or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this
Section 5.4 except according to the provisions of Section 5.5(a). 

  
 110 








 The Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion or advice of an Independent
investment banking firm of national reputation (the cost of which shall be payable as an Administrative Expense) in structuring and distributing securities similar to the Secured Notes, which may be the Initial Purchaser, as to the feasibility
of any action proposed to be taken in accordance with this Section 5.4 and as to the sufficiency of the proceeds and other amounts receivable with respect to the Assets to make the required payments of principal of and
interest on the Secured Notes which opinion shall be conclusive evidence as to such feasibility or sufficiency. 
 (b) If an Event of Default
as described in Section 5.1(d) hereof shall have occurred and be continuing the Trustee may, and at the direction of the Holders of not less than 25% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling
Class shall, subject to the terms of this Indenture (including Section 5.13 and Section 6.3(e)), institute a Proceeding solely to compel performance of the covenant or agreement or to cure the
representation or warranty, the breach of which gave rise to the Event of Default under such Section, and enforce any equitable decree or order arising from such Proceeding. 

(c) Upon any sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial Proceedings, any Secured Party and the Collateral
Manager may bid for and purchase the Assets or any part thereof and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain, possess or dispose of such property in its or their own absolute right without accountability. Any Holder at such sale
may, in payment of the purchase price, deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any of the Notes in lieu of cash equal to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable on the Notes so delivered by such Holder
(taking into account the Class of such Notes, the Priority of Payments and Article XIII). 
 Upon any sale, whether made under the
power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial Proceedings, the receipt of the Trustee, or of the Officer making a sale under judicial Proceedings, shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for its or their
purchase Money, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obliged to see to the application thereof. 
 Any such sale, whether under any
power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial Proceedings, shall bind the relevant Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Holders of the Secured Notes, shall operate to divest all right, title and interest
whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of each of them in and to the property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against each of them and their successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming through or
under them. 
 (d) (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, none of the Trustee, the Secured Parties or the Holders
may, prior to the date which is one year (or if longer, any applicable preference period) and one day after the payment in full of all Notes, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, winding up, moratorium or liquidation Proceedings, or other Proceedings under Cayman Islands, U.S. federal or state bankruptcy or similar laws.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article V, in the event that any Proceeding described in the immediately preceding sentence is commenced against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as applicable, subject to the availability of funds as described in the immediately following sentence, shall promptly object to the institution of any such proceeding against it and take all necessary or
advisable steps to cause the dismissal of any such proceeding (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to timely file an answer and any other 

  
 111 








 
appropriate pleading objecting to (i) the institution of any proceeding to have the Issuer or the Co-Issuer adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent or
(ii) the filing of any petition seeking relief, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition or in respect of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer under applicable bankruptcy law or any other applicable
law). The reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Co-Issuers (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) in connection with taking any such action shall be paid as
Administrative Expenses. Any person who acquires a beneficial interest in a Note shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the foregoing restrictions. 

(ii) In the event one or more Holders or beneficial owners of Notes cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the
Issuer or the Co-Issuer in violation of the prohibition described above, such Holder(s) or beneficial owner(s) shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree that any claim that such Holder(s) or beneficial owner(s)
have against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or with respect to the Assets (including any proceeds thereof) shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Priority of Payments, be fully subordinate in
right of payment to the claims of each Holder and beneficial owner of any Secured Notes that does not seek to cause any such filing, with such subordination being effective until each Secured Notes held by each Holder or beneficial owners of any
Secured Notes that does not seek to cause any such filing is paid in full in accordance with the Priority of Payments (after giving effect to such subordination). The terms described in the immediately preceding sentence are referred to herein as
the “Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement.” The Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement shall constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Trustee shall be entitled
to rely upon an Issuer Order with respect to the payment of any amounts payable to Holders, which amounts are subordinated pursuant to this Section 5.4(d)(ii). 

(iii) Nothing in this Section 5.4 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Trustee
(i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned period in (A) any case or Proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or (B) any involuntary
insolvency Proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the Trustee, or (ii) from commencing against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or any of their respective properties any legal action which is not
a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation Proceeding. 
 (iv) The parties hereto agree
that the restrictions described in clause (i) of this Section 5.4(d) are a material inducement for each Holder and beneficial owner of the Notes to acquire such Notes and for the
Co-Issuers and the Collateral Manager to enter into this Indenture (in the case of the Co-Issuers) and the other applicable Transaction Documents and are an essential
term of this Indenture. Any Holder or beneficial owner of a Note or the Issuer or the Co-Issuer may seek and obtain specific performance of such restrictions (including injunctive relief), including, without
limitation, in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under Cayman Islands law, United States federal or state bankruptcy law or similar laws. 

  
 112 








 Section 5.5 Optional Preservation of Assets. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall retain the Assets securing the Secured Notes intact (provided, however, that certain types of Collateral Obligations (other than
Unsaleable Assets) may continue to be sold by the Issuer pursuant to this Indenture as described under Article XII), collect and cause the collection of the proceeds thereof and make and apply all payments and deposits and maintain all
accounts in respect of such Assets and the Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the provisions of Article X, Article XII and Article XIII unless: 

(i) the Trustee, pursuant to Section 5.5(c), determines that the anticipated proceeds of a sale or
liquidation of the Assets (after deducting the anticipated reasonable expenses of such sale or liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in full the applicable amounts then due (or, in the case of interest, accrued) and unpaid on the
Secured Notes for principal and interest (including accrued and unpaid Deferred Interest), and all other amounts that, pursuant to the Priority of Payments, are required to be paid prior to such payments on the Secured Notes (including any amounts
due and owing (or anticipated to be due and owing) as Administrative Expenses (without regard to the Administrative Expense Cap) and any due and unpaid Senior Collateral Management Fee (unless waived by the Collateral Manager)) and a Majority of the
Controlling Class agrees with such determination; or 
 (ii) the Holders of at least a Majority of the Aggregate
Outstanding Amount of each Class of Secured Notes (each voting separately by Class) (other than any Collateral Manager Notes, which shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for purposes of this clause (ii)) direct the sale and
liquidation of the Assets (without regard to whether another Event of Default has occurred prior, contemporaneously or subsequent to such Event of Default); provided that if an EoD Overcollateralization Ratio is less than or equal to 102.5%
as of any Measurement Date and remains so for 10 Business Days after such Measurement Date, and the Class A Notes are outstanding at such time, a Majority of the Controlling Class (other than any Collateral Manager Notes, which shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for purposes of this proviso) may direct the sale and liquidation of the Assets (without regard to whether another Event of Default has occurred prior, contemporaneously or subsequent to such Event of
Default). 
 The Trustee shall make the determinations required by clause (i) of the preceding sentence within 30 days after an Event
of Default and at the request of a Majority of the Controlling Class at any time during which the Trustee retains the Assets pursuant to this Indenture. 

So long as such Event of Default is continuing, any such retention pursuant to this Section 5.5(a) may be rescinded
at any time when the conditions specified in clause (i) or (ii) exist. 
 (b) Nothing contained in
Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to sell Assets securing the Secured Notes if the conditions set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 5.5(a) are not
satisfied. Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to preserve the Assets securing the Notes if prohibited by applicable law. 

  
 113 








 (c) In determining whether the condition specified in
Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts to obtain bid prices with respect to each Asset or group of Assets from two nationally recognized dealers with substantial experience buying and
selling such assets and shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of the lower of such bid prices for each such Asset or group of Assets. In the event that the Trustee is only able to obtain bid prices with respect
to the Assets from one nationally recognized dealer at the time making a market in such assets, the Trustee shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of such one bid price for such Asset or Assets. In addition, for
the purposes of obtaining bid prices as provided for in this Section 5.5(c) and/or determining issues relating to the execution of a sale or liquidation of the Assets and the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof
in connection with a determination whether the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the Trustee may retain and rely on an opinion or advice of an Independent investment banking firm of national reputation
or other appropriate advisors (the reasonable cost of which shall be payable as an Administrative Expense). 
 The Trustee shall deliver to
the Holders and the Collateral Manager a report stating the results of any determination required pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i) no later than 10 days after such determination is made. The Trustee shall make the
determinations required by Section 5.5(a)(i) within 30 days after an Event of Default and at the request of a Majority of the Controlling Class at any time during which the Trustee retains the Assets pursuant
to Section 5.5(a)(i). 
 (d) Prior to the sale of any Assets in connection with
Section 5.5(a)(i), the Trustee shall offer the BDC and the Collateral Manager the right (which right, for avoidance of doubt, shall be irrevocably forfeited if not exercised within the specified timeframe) to purchase such
Assets at a price equal to the highest bid price received by the Trustee in accordance with Section 5.5(c) (or if only one bid is received, such bid price). Such Person must submit a bid to purchase such Assets at the aforementioned price
within two Business Days of such Person’s receipt of the Trustee’s report provided in accordance with Section 5.5(c). Such purchase shall be effected by paying to the Trustee in immediately available funds an
amount equal to the aforementioned bid price; provided that such purchase shall settle within five Business Days after the date the Trustee’s report is received, otherwise such purchase shall not be permitted. Notwithstanding the
foregoing purchase rights, the BDC, the Collateral Manager and any of their respective Affiliates shall have the right to bid on any Assets sold pursuant to this Section 5.5. 

Section 5.6 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this
Indenture or under any of the Secured Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Secured Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceeding relating thereto, and any such action or
Proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.7 hereof. 

Section 5.7 Application of Money Collected. Any Money collected by the Trustee with respect to the Notes pursuant to this
Article V and any Money that may then be held or thereafter received by the Trustee with respect to the Notes hereunder shall be applied, subject to Section 13.1 and in accordance with the provisions of
Section 11.1(a)(iii) at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee. Upon the final distribution of all proceeds of any liquidation of the Assets effected hereunder, the provisions of Section 4.1(a) and
(b) shall be deemed satisfied for the purposes of discharging this Indenture pursuant to Article IV. 

  
 114 








 Section 5.8 Limitation on Suits. No Holder of a Note shall have any right to
institute any Proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

(a) such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default; 

(b) the Holders of not less than 25% of the then Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the Controlling Class shall have made
written request to the Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder and such Holder or Holders have provided the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs,
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (c)
the Trustee, for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and provision of such indemnity, has failed to institute any such Proceeding; and 

(d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such
30-day period by a Majority of the Controlling Class; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself of,
any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes of the same Class or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of the Notes of the same Class or to
enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of Notes of the same Class subject to and in accordance with Section 13.1 and
the Priority of Payments. 
 In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity pursuant to this
Section 5.8 from two or more groups of Holders of the Controlling Class, each representing less than a Majority of the Controlling Class, the Trustee shall act in accordance with the request specified by the group of
Holders with the greatest percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture. If all such groups represent the same percentage, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may
determine what action, if any, shall be taken. 
 Section 5.9 Unconditional Rights of Secured Noteholders to Receive Principal and
Interest. Subject to Section 2.7(i), but notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Holder of any Secured Notes shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the
principal of and interest on such Secured Notes, as such principal, interest and other amounts become due and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments and Section 13.1, as the case may be, and, subject to the
provisions of Section 5.4(d) and Section 5.8, to institute proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. Holders of
Secured Notes ranking junior to Notes outstanding at such time shall have no right to institute Proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment until such time as no Secured Notes ranking senior to such Secured Notes remain outstanding at such
time, which right shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.4(d) and Section 5.8, and shall not be impaired without the consent of any such Holder. 

  
 115 








 Section 5.10 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has
instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Holder shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of
the Trustee and the Holder shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.11 Rights and Remedies
Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 5.12 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the
Trustee or any Holder of Secured Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein or of a subsequent Event
of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Secured Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of the
Secured Notes. 
 Section 5.13 Control by Majority of Controlling Class. A Majority of the Controlling Class shall have the
right following the occurrence, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default to cause the institution of and direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee; provided that: 

(a) such direction shall not conflict with any rule of law or with any express provision of this Indenture; 

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; provided that
subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability or expense (unless the Trustee has received the indemnity as set forth in (c) below); 

(c) the Trustee shall have been provided with indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it; and 

(d) notwithstanding the foregoing, any direction to the Trustee to undertake a Sale of the Assets shall be by the Holders of Notes representing
the requisite percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Notes required in Section 5.4 and/or Section 5.5. 

  
 116 








 Section 5.14 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the time a judgment or decree for
payment of the Money due has been obtained by the Trustee, as provided in this Article V, a Majority of the Controlling Class may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes outstanding at such time, waive any past Default or Event of
Default and its consequences, except a Default: 
 (a) in the payment of the principal of any Secured Notes (which may be waived only with
the consent of the Holder of such Secured Notes); 
 (b) in the payment of interest on any Secured Notes (which may be waived only with the
consent of the Holder of such Secured Notes); 
 (c) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under
Section 8.2 cannot be modified or amended without the waiver or consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note materially and adversely affected thereby (which may be waived only with the consent of each such Holder);
or 
 (d) in respect of a representation contained in Section 7.19 (which may be waived only by a Majority of
the Controlling Class if the S&P Rating Agency Condition is satisfied). 
 In the case of any such waiver, the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereto. The Trustee shall promptly give written notice of any such waiver to the Collateral Manager, the Co-Issuers (and, subject to
Section 14.3(c), the Issuer shall provide such notice to the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) and each Holder. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of
Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture. 
 Section 5.15 Undertaking for
Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy
under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion
assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section 5.15 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the
Controlling Class, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the applicable Stated Maturity (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable
Redemption Date). 
 Section 5.16 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Co-Issuers
covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any valuation, appraisement,
redemption or marshalling law or rights, in each case wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants, the performance of or any remedies 

  
 117 








 
under this Indenture; and the Co-Issuers (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law
or rights, and covenant that they will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted or rights created. 

Section 5.17 Sale of Assets. (a) The power to effect any sale (a “Sale”) of any portion of the Assets
pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 5.5 shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of such Assets remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired (subject to Section 5.5(d) in the case of sales
pursuant to Section 5.5) until the Assets shall have been sold or all amounts secured by such Assets shall have been paid. The Trustee may upon notice to the Holders and the Collateral Manager, and shall, upon direction of
a Majority of the Controlling Class, from time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale. The Trustee hereby expressly waives its rights to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale;
provided that the Trustee shall be authorized to deduct the reasonable costs, charges and expenses (including but not limited to costs and expenses of counsel) incurred by it in connection with such Sale from the proceeds thereof
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7 or other applicable terms hereof. 
 (b) The Trustee may bid for and
acquire any portion of the Assets in connection with a public Sale thereof, and the Trustee may pay all or part of the purchase price by crediting against amounts owing on the Secured Notes in the case of the Assets or other amounts secured by the
Assets, all or part of the net proceeds of such Sale after deducting the reasonable costs, charges and expenses (including but not limited to costs and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Trustee in connection with such Sale notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 6.7 hereof or other applicable terms hereof. The Secured Notes need not be produced in order to complete any such Sale, or in order for the net proceeds of such Sale to be credited against amounts
owing on the Notes. The Trustee may hold, lease, operate, manage or otherwise deal with any property so acquired in any manner permitted by law in accordance with this Indenture. 

(c) If any portion of the Assets consists of securities issued without registration under the Securities Act (“Unregistered
Securities”), the Trustee may seek an Opinion of Counsel, or, if no such Opinion of Counsel can be obtained and with the consent of a Majority of the Controlling Class, seek a no action position from the Securities and Exchange Commission
or any other relevant federal or State regulatory authorities, regarding the legality of a public or private Sale of such Unregistered Securities. 

(d) The Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Assets in
connection with a Sale thereof, without recourse, representation or warranty. In addition, the Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney in fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any portion of the Assets in
connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale. No purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s authority, to inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or
see to the application of any Monies. 

  
 118 








 (e) The Trustee shall provide notice of any public Sale to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes
and the Collateral Manager at least 10 days prior to such public Sale, and the Holders of the Subordinated Notes shall be permitted to participate in any such public Sale to the extent permitted by applicable law and such Holders or the Collateral
Manager, as the case may be, meet any applicable eligibility requirements with respect to such Sale. 
 Section 5.18 Action on the
Notes. The Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien
of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Assets or upon
any of the assets of the Co-Issuers. 
 ARTICLE VI 

THE TRUSTEE 

Section 6.1 Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default known to the
Trustee: 
 (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the
absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements
of this Indenture; provided that in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine
whether or not they substantially conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly, but in any event within three Business Days in the case of an Officer’s certificate furnished by the Collateral Manager, notify
the party delivering the same if such certificate or opinion does not conform. If a corrected form shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 15 days after such notice from the Trustee, the Trustee shall so notify the Holders. 

(b) In case an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if
any, from a Majority of the Controlling Class, or such other percentage as permitted by this Indenture, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent
person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 (c) No provision of this Indenture
shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 

(i) this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this
Section 6.1; 

  
 119 








 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith
by a Trust Officer, unless it shall be proven that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
 (iii)
the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Collateral Manager in accordance
with this Indenture and/or a Majority (or such other percentage as may be required by the terms hereof) of the Controlling Class (or other Class if required or permitted by the terms hereof), relating to the time, method and place of
conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, under this Indenture; 
 (iv) no provision of this
Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial or other liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if
it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it; and 

(v) in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential loss or damage
(including, but not limited to, lost profits) even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and regardless of such action. 

(d) For all purposes under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default
described in Sections 5.1(c), (d), (e), or (f) unless a Trust Officer assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such an
Event of Default or Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Notes generally, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Assets or this Indenture. For purposes of
determining the Trustee’s responsibility and liability hereunder, whenever reference is made in this Indenture to such an Event of Default or a Default, such reference shall be construed to refer only to such an Event of Default or Default of
which the Trustee is deemed to have notice as described in this Section 6.1. 
 (e) Not later than one Business Day
after the Trustee receives (i) notice of assignment pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Collateral Management Agreement, (ii) a Termination Notice (as defined in the Collateral Management Agreement) or a Statement of Cause (as defined in
the Collateral Management Agreement) pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Collateral Management Agreement or (iii) a notice from the Collateral Manager pursuant to Section 14(b) of the Collateral Management Agreement, the Trustee shall
forward a copy of such notice to the Holders (as their names appear in the Register). 
 (f) Whether or not therein expressly so provided,
every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1. 

  
 120 








 (g) The Trustee shall grant access, via a protected password to the Trustee’s Website in
order to examine all books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Trustee (other than any items protected by attorney-client privilege) relating to the Notes, upon reasonable written request (but not less than three Business Days), to
any Holder shown on the Register, and, upon written notice to the Trustee in the form of Exhibit C, any beneficial owner of a Note. 

Section 6.2 Notice of Event of Default. Promptly (and in no event later than three Business Days) after the occurrence of any
Event of Default of which a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge or after any declaration of acceleration has been made or delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.2, the Trustee shall transmit by mail or
e-mail to the Collateral Manager, the Issuer (and, subject to Section 14.3(c), the Issuer shall provide such notice to the Rating Agency), and all Holders, as their names and
addresses appear on the Register, notice of all Event of Defaults hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. 

Section 6.3 Certain Rights of Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1: 

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

(b) any request or direction of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer mentioned herein shall be sufficiently
evidenced by an Issuer Request or Issuer Order, as the case may be; 
 (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall
(i) deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part,
rely upon an Officer’s certificate or Issuer Order or (ii) be required to determine the value of any Assets or funds hereunder or the cash flows projected to be received therefrom, the Trustee may, in the absence of bad faith on its part,
rely on reports of nationally recognized accountants (which may or may not be the accountants appointed by the Issuer pursuant to Section 10.9), investment bankers or other persons qualified to provide the information
required to make such determination, including nationally recognized dealers in securities of the type being valued and securities quotation services; 

(d) as a condition to the taking or omitting of any action by it hereunder, the Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel
or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 

(e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise or to honor any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request
or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have provided to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses) and liabilities which might reasonably be incurred by it in complying with such request or direction; 

  
 121 








 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in
any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may, and upon the written direction of a Majority of the
Controlling Class or of the Rating Agency shall (subject to the right hereunder to be indemnified reasonably satisfactory to it for associated expense and liability), make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it
may see fit or as it shall be directed, and the Trustee shall be entitled, on reasonable prior written notice to the Co-Issuers and the Collateral Manager, to examine the books and records relating to the
Notes and the Assets, personally or by agent or attorney, during the Co-Issuers’ or the Collateral Manager’s normal business hours; provided that the Trustee shall, and shall cause its agents
to, hold in confidence all such information, except (i) to the extent disclosure may be required by law or by any regulatory, administrative or governmental authority, (ii) as otherwise required pursuant to this Indenture and (iii) to
the extent that the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine that such disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that the Trustee may disclose on a confidential basis any such information to its
agents, attorneys and auditors in connection with the performance of its responsibilities hereunder; 
 (g) the Trustee may execute any of
the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys; provided that the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent appointed or
attorney appointed, with due care by it hereunder; 
 (h) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good
faith that it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers hereunder, including actions or omissions to act at the direction of the Collateral Manager; 

(i) nothing herein shall be construed to impose an obligation on the part of the Trustee to monitor, recalculate, evaluate or verify or
independently determine the accuracy of any report, certificate or information received from the Issuer or Collateral Manager (unless and except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth herein); 

(j) to the extent any defined term hereunder, or any calculation required to be made or determined by the Trustee hereunder, is dependent upon
or defined by reference to generally accepted accounting principles (as in effect in the United States) (“GAAP”), the Trustee shall be entitled to request and receive (and rely upon) instruction from the Issuer or the
accountants identified in the Accountants’ Certificate (and in the absence of its receipt of timely instruction therefrom, shall be entitled to obtain from an Independent accountant at the expense of the Issuer) as to the application of
GAAP in such connection, in any instance; 
 (k) the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions or omissions of, or any inaccuracies in the
records of, the Collateral Manager, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, any Paying Agent (other than the Trustee), DTC, Euroclear, Clearstream, or any other clearing agency or depository or for the actions or omissions
of any such Person (including compliance with Rule 17g-5 requirements in accordance with Section 14.17), and without limiting the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be under any
obligation to monitor, evaluate or verify compliance by the Collateral Manager with the terms hereof or of the Collateral Management Agreement, or to verify or independently determine the accuracy of information received by the Trustee from the
Collateral Manager (or from any selling institution, agent bank, trustee or similar source) with respect to the Assets; 

  
 122 








 (l) notwithstanding any term hereof (or any term of the UCC that might otherwise be construed to
be applicable to a “securities intermediary” as defined in the UCC) to the contrary, none of the Trustee, the Custodian or the Securities Intermediary shall be under a duty or obligation in connection with the acquisition or Grant by
the Issuer to the Trustee of any item constituting the Assets, or to evaluate the sufficiency of the documents or instruments delivered to it by or on behalf of the Issuer in connection with its Grant or otherwise, or in that regard to examine any
Underlying Instrument, in each case, in order to determine compliance with applicable requirements of and restrictions on transfer in respect of such Assets; 

(m) in the event the Bank is also acting in the capacity of Paying Agent, Registrar, Transfer Agent, Custodian, Calculation Agent or Securities
Intermediary, the rights, protections, benefits, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall also be afforded to the Bank acting in such capacities; provided that such rights, protections,
benefits, immunities and indemnities shall be in addition to any rights, immunities and indemnities provided in the Securities Account Control Agreement or any other documents to which the Bank in such capacity is a party; 

(n) any permissive right of the Trustee to take or refrain from taking actions enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty;

 (o) the Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of this Indenture or otherwise; 

(p) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter unless a Trust Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless
written notice thereof is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office and such notice references the Notes generally, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or this Indenture. Whenever reference is made in this
Indenture to a Default or an Event of Default such reference shall, insofar as determining any liability on the part of the Trustee is concerned, be construed to refer only to a Default or an Event of Default of which the Trustee is deemed to have
knowledge in accordance with this paragraph; 
 (q) the Trustee shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from
circumstances beyond its control (such circumstances include but are not limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services); 

(r) to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities and/or to achieve Tax Account Reporting Rules Compliance, the
Trustee will obtain, verify, and record information that identifies individuals or entities that establish a relationship or open an account with the Trustee. The Trustee will ask for the name, address, tax identification number and other
information that will allow the Trustee to identify the individual or entity who is establishing the relationship or opening the account. The Trustee may also ask for formation documents such as articles of incorporation, an offering memorandum, or
other identifying documents to be provided; 
 (s) to the extent not inconsistent herewith, the rights, protections, immunities and
indemnities afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture also shall be afforded to the Collateral Administrator; provided that such rights, immunities and indemnities shall be in addition to any rights, immunities and indemnities
provided in the Collateral Administration Agreement; 

  
 123 








 (t) in making or disposing of any investment permitted by this Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to deal with itself (in its individual capacity) or with any one or more of its Affiliates, in each case on an arm’s-length basis, whether it or such Affiliate is acting as a subagent of the
Trustee or for any third person or dealing as principal for its own account. If otherwise qualified, obligations of the Bank or any of its Affiliates shall qualify as Eligible Investments hereunder; 

(u) the Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee’s economic
self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or subcustodian with respect to certain of the Eligible Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain
Eligible Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Eligible Investments. Such compensation is not payable or reimbursable under Section 6.7 of this Indenture; 

(v) the Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture or
any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording, filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof or (ii) to maintain any
insurance; 
 (w) neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Administrator shall have any obligation to determine: (i) if a Collateral
Obligation meets the criteria or eligibility restrictions imposed by this Indenture or (ii) if the Collateral Manager has not provided it with the information necessary for making such determination, whether the conditions specified in the
definition of “Delivered” have been complied with; 
 (x) in accordance with the U.S. Unlawful Internet Gambling Act (the Gambling
Act), the Issuer may not use the Accounts or other U.S. Bank National Association facilities in the United States to process “restricted transactions” as such term is defined in U.S. 31 CFR Section 132.2(y). Therefore, neither the
Issuer nor any person who has an ownership interest in or control over the Accounts may use it to process or facilitate payments for prohibited internet gambling transactions; and 

(y) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any U.S. Risk Retention Rules, EU Securitisation Laws or Cayman AML Regulations, nor
will the Trustee be responsible for monitoring, confirming or enforcing any U.S. Risk Retention Rules, EU Securitisation Laws or Cayman AML Regulations applicable to the transaction, and the Trustee will not be liable to any Holder or any other
party for violation of such rules now or hereinafter in effect. 
 Section 6.4 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of
Notes. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, other than the Certificate of Authentication thereon, shall be taken as the statements of the Applicable Issuers; and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee
makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture (except as may be made with respect to the validity of the Trustee’s obligations hereunder), the Assets or the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use
or application by the Co-Issuers of the Notes or the proceeds thereof or any Money paid to the Co-Issuers pursuant to the provisions hereof. 

  
 124 








 Section 6.5 May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent,
Registrar or any other agent of the Co-Issuers, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the
Co-Issuers or any of their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent. 

Section 6.6 Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee hereunder shall be held in trust to the extent required herein. The
Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any Money received by it hereunder except to the extent of income or other gain on investments which are deposits in or certificates of deposit of the Bank in its commercial capacity and income or
other gain actually received by the Trustee on Eligible Investments. 
 Section 6.7 Compensation and Reimbursement. (a) The
Issuer agrees: 
 (i) to pay the Bank (in each of its capacities) on each Payment Date reasonable compensation, as set forth
in a separate fee schedule, for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) in accordance with the Priority of Payments; 

(ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to pay or reimburse the Trustee in a timely manner upon its request for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee and the Bank in any of its other capacities, in accordance with any provision of this Indenture or other Transaction Document (including, without limitation, securities
transaction charges and the reasonable compensation and expenses and disbursements of its agents and legal counsel and of any accounting firm or investment banking firm employed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.4,
5.5, 6.3(c) or 10.7, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) but with respect to securities transaction charges, only to the extent any
such charges have not been waived during a Collection Period due to the Trustee’s payment or receipt of a payment from a financial institution with respect to certain Eligible Investments, as specified by the Collateral Manager; 

(iii) to indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any
loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees and expenses) incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration
of this trust or the performance of its duties hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents, including the costs and expenses of (i) defending themselves (including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees and
expenses) against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder and under any Transaction Document (whether brought by or involving any of the
Co-Issuers or any third party) and (ii) enforcing their rights hereunder; and 

  
 125 








 (iv) to pay the Trustee reasonable additional compensation together with its
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) for any collection or enforcement action taken pursuant to Section 6.13 or Article V, respectively. 

(b) The Trustee shall receive amounts pursuant to this Section 6.7 and any other amounts payable to it under this
Indenture or in any of the Transaction Documents to which the Trustee is a party only as provided in Sections 11.1(a)(i) through (iii) but only to the extent that funds are available for the payment thereof. Subject to
Section 6.9, the Trustee shall continue to serve as Trustee under this Indenture notwithstanding the fact that the Trustee shall not have received amounts due it hereunder; provided that nothing herein shall impair
or affect the Trustee’s rights under Section 6.9. No direction by the Holders shall affect the right of the Trustee to collect amounts owed to it under this Indenture. If on any date when a fee or an expense shall be
payable to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture insufficient funds are available for the payment thereof, any portion of a fee or an expense not so paid shall be deferred and payable on such later date on which a fee or an expense shall be payable
and sufficient funds are available therefor. 
 (c) Without limitation to Section 5.4(d), the Trustee hereby agrees
not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy for the non-payment to the Trustee of any amounts provided by this Section 6.7 until at least one year, or if longer the applicable
preference period then in effect, and one day after the payment in full of all Notes issued under this Indenture; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the filing of proofs of claim in any such action that is filed or commenced by a
Person other than the Trustee or any Affiliate thereof. 
 (d) The Issuer’s payment obligations to the Trustee under this
Section 6.7 shall be secured by the lien of this Indenture payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the
Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.1(e) or (f), the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Bankruptcy Law or any other
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 
 Section 6.8 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There
shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be an Independent organization or entity organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$200,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, having a long-term senior debt rating of at least “BBB” by S&P (or such lower rating
for which an S&P Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied) and having an office within the United States. If such organization or entity publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.8, the combined capital and surplus of such organization or entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent published report of condition. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.8, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article VI. 
 Section 6.9 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation
or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.10. 

  
 126 








 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving not less than 30 days’ written notice
thereof to the Co-Issuers (and, subject to Section 14.3(c), the Issuer shall provide notice to the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes), the Collateral
Manager and the Holders of the Notes. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Co-Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees satisfying the requirements of
Section 6.8 by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee so resigning and one copy to the successor Trustee or Trustees,
together with a copy to each Holder and the Collateral Manager; provided that such successor Trustee shall be appointed only upon the written consent of a Majority of the Secured Notes of each Class (each voting separately by Class) or, at
any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Trustee has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.9(e), by an Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class. If no successor Trustee
shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or any Holder, on behalf of
itself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.8. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of a Majority of each Class of Notes (each voting separately by Class) or, at any time
when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing by an Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class, delivered to the Trustee and to the Co-Issuers. 

(d) If at any time: 

(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.8 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Co-Issuers or by any Holder; or 
 (ii) the Trustee
shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; 
 then, in any such case (subject to
Section 6.9(a)), (A) the Co-Issuers, by Issuer Order, may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 5.15, any Holder may, on behalf of itself
and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any
reason (other than resignation), the Co-Issuers, by Issuer Order, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the Co-Issuers shall fail to appoint a successor Trustee
within 60 days after such resignation, removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee may be appointed by a Majority of the Controlling Class by written instrument delivered to the Issuer and the retiring
Trustee. The successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor 

  
 127 








 
Trustee and supersede any successor Trustee proposed by the Co-Issuers. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Co-Issuers or a Majority of the Controlling Class and shall have accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, subject to Section 5.15, any Holder may, on behalf of itself
and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (f) The Co-Issuers shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing written notice of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to
the Collateral Manager, subject to Section 14.3(c), the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) and to the Holders of the Notes as their names and addresses appear in the Register. Each notice
shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Co-Issuers fail to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor
Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause, subject to Section 14.3(c), such notice to be given at the expense of the Co-Issuers. 

Section 6.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall meet the requirements of
Section 6.8, shall make the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.17 and shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Co-Issuers and the
retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Upon delivery of the required instruments, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance,
shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Co-Issuers or a Majority of any Class of Secured Notes or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and
deliver to such successor Trustee all property and Money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Co-Issuers shall execute any and all instruments for more fully
and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts. 
 Section 6.11 Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee. Any organization or entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any organization or entity resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any organization or entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided
that such organization or entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any of the Notes has been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such
successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes. 
 Section 6.12 Co-Trustees. At
any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Assets may at the time be located, the Co-Issuers and the Trustee shall have power to appoint
one or more Persons to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Trustee, of all or any part of the Assets, with the power to file such proofs of claim and take such other actions pursuant to
Section 5.6 herein and to make such claims and enforce such rights of action on behalf of the Holders, as such Holders themselves may have the right to do, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 6.12. 

  
 128 








 The Co-Issuers shall join with the Trustee in the
execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint a co-trustee. If the Co-Issuers do not join in such appointment
within 15 days after the receipt by them of a request to do so, the Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment. 
 Should any
written instrument from the Co-Issuers be required by any co-trustee so appointed, more fully confirming to such co-trustee such
property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Co-Issuers. The Co-Issuers agree to pay,
to the extent funds are available therefor under Section 11.1(a)(i)(A) for any reasonable fees and expenses in connection with such appointment. 

Every co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject
to the following terms: 
 (a) the Notes shall be authenticated and delivered and all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in
respect of the custody of securities, Cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee hereunder, shall be exercised solely by the Trustee; 

(b) the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered by the
appointment of a co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such co-trustee jointly as shall be
provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee; 
 (c) the Trustee at any time, by an
instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Co-Issuers evidenced by an Issuer Order, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee
appointed under this Section 6.12, and in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such
co-trustee without the concurrence of the Co-Issuers. A successor to any co-trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in
the manner provided in this Section 6.12; 
 (d) no co-trustee hereunder
shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee hereunder; 
 (e) the Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any
act or omission of a co-trustee; and 
 (f) any Act of Holders delivered to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been delivered to each co-trustee.

Section 14.3(c), the Issuer shall notify the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) of the appointment of a co-trustee hereunder. 

  
 129 








 Section 6.13 Certain Duties of Trustee Related to Delayed Payment of Proceeds. If the
Trustee shall not have received a payment with respect to any Asset on its Due Date, (a) the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Collateral Manager in writing and (b) unless within three Business Days (or the end of the
applicable grace period for such payment, if any) after such notice (x) such payment shall have been received by the Trustee or (y) the Issuer, in its absolute discretion (but only to the extent permitted by
Section 10.2(a)), shall have made provision for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with Section 10.2(a), the Trustee shall, not later than the Business Day immediately following
the last day of such period and in any case upon request by the Collateral Manager, request the issuer of such Asset, the trustee under the related Underlying Instrument or paying agent designated by either of them, as the case may be, to make such
payment not later than three Business Days after the date of such request. If such payment is not made within such time period, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of clause (iv) of Section 6.1(c), shall take such
action as the Collateral Manager shall direct. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. If the Issuer or the Collateral Manager requests a release of an Asset and/or
delivers an additional Collateral Obligation in connection with any such action under the Collateral Management Agreement, such release and/or substitution shall be subject to Section 10.8 and Article XII of
this Indenture, as the case may be. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer or its designee any payment with respect to any Asset or any additional Collateral Obligation received after the Due Date thereof
to the extent the Issuer previously made provisions for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with this Section 6.13 and such payment shall not be deemed part of the Assets. 

Reasonably promptly after receipt thereof, the Trustee shall notify and provide to the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer a copy of
any documents, financial reports, legal opinions or any other information including, without limitation, any notices, reports, requests for waiver, consent requests or any other requests or communications relating to the Assets or any Obligor or to
actions affecting the Assets or any Obligor. Upon reasonable request by the Collateral Manager, the Trustee further agrees to provide to the Collateral Manager from time to time, on a timely basis, any information in its possession relating to the
Collateral Obligations, the Equity Securities and the Eligible Investments as requested so as to enable the Collateral Manager to perform its duties hereunder or under the Collateral Management Agreement. 

Section 6.14 Authenticating Agents. Upon the request of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee shall,
and if the Trustee so chooses the Trustee may, appoint one or more Authenticating Agents with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under
Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 8.5, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by such Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this
Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 6.14 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes by the Trustee. 

Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation. 

  
 130 








 Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the
Trustee and the Issuer. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Co-Issuers. Upon receiving such
notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Issuer, promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment to the
Co-Issuers. 
 Unless the Authenticating Agent is also the same entity as the Trustee, the Issuer
agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services, and reimbursement for its reasonable expenses relating thereto as an Administrative Expense. The provisions of Sections 2.8,
6.4 and 6.5 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent. 
 Section 6.15 Withholding. If any
withholding tax is imposed by applicable law on the Issuer’s payment (or allocations of income) under the Notes, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the relevant Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, any withholding
tax required to be withheld under FATCA shall be treated as imposed by applicable law. The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to any Holder sufficient funds for the payment of any such tax that
is legally owed or required to be withheld by the Issuer, including due to the failure by a Holder to comply with its Holder Tax Obligations, and to timely remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. Such authorization, however, shall
not prevent the Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate Proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such Proceedings. The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to any Note
shall be treated as Cash distributed to the relevant Holder at the time it is withheld by the Trustee. If there is a possibility that withholding is required by applicable law with respect to a distribution, the Paying Agent or the Trustee may, in
its sole discretion, withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 6.15. If any Holder or beneficial owner wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such
Person in providing readily available information so long as such Person agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Nothing herein shall
impose an obligation on the part of the Trustee to determine the amount of any tax or withholding obligation on the part of the Issuer or in respect of the Notes. 

Upon written request, the Trustee shall provide to the Issuer or any agent thereof any information specified by such persons as necessary for
the Issuer to achieve Tax Account Reporting Rules Compliance regarding the Holders of the Notes and payments on the Notes that is reasonably available to the Trustee, as the case may be. 

Section 6.16 Representative for Secured Noteholders Only; Agent for each other Secured Party and the Holders of the Subordinated
Notes. With respect to the security interest created hereunder, the delivery of any Asset to the Trustee is to the Trustee as representative of the Secured Noteholders and agent for each other Secured Party and the Holders of the Subordinated
Notes. In furtherance of the foregoing, the possession by the Trustee of any Asset, the endorsement to or registration in the name of the Trustee of any Asset (including without limitation as entitlement holder of the Custodial Account) are all
undertaken by the Trustee in its capacity as representative of the Secured Noteholders, and agent for each other Secured Party and the Holders of the Subordinated Notes.

notice of such release to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in Monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of any Paying Agent, at the last
address of record of each such Holder.

jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to any other jurisdiction reasonably selected by the Issuer at the direction of a Majority of the Subordinated Notes so long as (i) the Issuer has received a legal opinion (upon which the
Trustee may conclusively rely) to the effect that such change is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders, (ii) the Issuer shall have given written notice of such change to the Trustee and, subject to

Memorandum and Articles of Association and (y) the Issuer shall (A) maintain books and records separate from any other Person, (B) maintain its accounts separate from those of any other Person, (C) not commingle its assets with

 Section 7.5 Protection of Assets. (a) The Collateral Manager, on behalf of the
Issuer, shall cause the taking of such action within the Collateral Manager’s control as is reasonably necessary in order to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Trustee in the Assets; provided that the
Collateral Manager and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to Section 7.6 and any Opinion of Counsel with respect to the same subject matter delivered pursuant to
Section 3.1(a)(iii) to determine what actions are reasonably necessary, and shall be fully protected in so relying on such an Opinion of Counsel, unless the Collateral Manager has actual knowledge that the procedures
described in any such Opinion of Counsel are no longer adequate to maintain such perfection and priority. The Issuer shall from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and file or authorize the filing of all such
Financing Statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable or desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the Holders of the Secured
Notes hereunder and to: 
 (i) Grant more effectively all or any portion of the Assets; 

(ii) maintain, preserve and perfect any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture including, without limitation, the first
priority nature of the lien or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof; 
 (iii) perfect, publish notice of or protect
the validity of any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture (including, without limitation, any and all actions necessary or desirable as a result of changes in law or regulations); 

(iv) enforce any of the Assets or other instruments or property included in the Assets; 

(v) preserve and defend title to the Assets and the rights therein of the Trustee and the Holders of the Secured Notes in the
Assets against the claims of all Persons and parties; or 
 (vi) pay or cause to be paid any and all taxes levied or assessed
upon all or any part of the Assets. 
 The Issuer hereby designates the Trustee as its agent and attorney in fact to file and hereby
authorizes the filing of any Financing Statement, continuation statement and all other instruments prepared and delivered to it, and take all other actions, required pursuant to this Section 7.5. Such designation shall not
impose upon the Trustee, or release or diminish, the Issuer’s and the Collateral Manager’s obligations under this Section 7.5. The Issuer further authorize and shall cause its United States counsel to file without
its signature a Financing Statement that names it as debtor and the Trustee, on behalf of the Secured Parties, as secured party and that describes “all personal property of the Debtor now owned or hereafter acquired, other than ‘Excepted
Property’” (and that defines “Excepted Property” in accordance with its definition herein) as the Assets in which the Trustee has a Grant. 

  
 137 








 (b) The Trustee shall not, except in accordance with Section 5.5 or
Section 10.8(a), (b) and (c) or Section 12.1, as applicable, permit the removal of any portion of the Assets or transfer any such Assets from the Account to which it is
credited, or cause or permit any change in the Delivery made pursuant to Section 3.3 with respect to any Assets, if, after giving effect thereto, the jurisdiction governing the perfection of the Trustee’s security
interest in such Assets is different from the jurisdiction governing the perfection at the time of delivery of the most recent Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 7.6 (or, if no Opinion of Counsel has yet been
delivered pursuant to Section 7.6, the Opinion of Counsel delivered at the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii) unless the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that the lien and security interest created by this Indenture with respect to such property and the priority thereof will continue to be maintained after giving effect to such action or actions). 

Section 7.6 Opinions as to Assets. On or before July 9th in each
calendar year, commencing in 2020, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee and the Rating Agency an Opinion of Counsel relating to the security interest granted by the Issuer to the Trustee, stating that, as of the date of such opinion, the lien and
security interest created by this Indenture with respect to the Assets remain in effect and that no further action (other than as specified in such opinion) needs to be taken to ensure the continued effectiveness of such lien over the next year.

 Section 7.7 Performance of Obligations. (a) The Co-Issuers, each as to itself,
shall not take any action, and shall use their best 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 Assets, except in
the case of enforcement action taken with respect to any Defaulted Obligation in accordance with the provisions hereof and actions by the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement and in conformity with this Indenture or as
otherwise required hereby. 
 (b) The Issuer shall notify the Rating Agency within 10 Business Days after it has received notice from any
Holder of any material breach of any Transaction Document, following any applicable cure period for such breach. 
 Section 7.8
Negative Covenants. (a) The Issuer shall not and, with respect to clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x), (xii) and (xiii) the Co-Issuer shall not, in each case from and
after the Closing Date: 
 (i) sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or pledge, mortgage, hypothecate or
otherwise encumber (or permit such to occur or suffer such to exist), any part of the Assets, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture and the Collateral Management Agreement; 

(ii) claim any credit on, make any deduction from, or dispute the enforceability of payment of the principal or interest
payable (or any other amount) in respect of the Notes (other than amounts withheld or deducted in accordance with the Code or, in the case of the Issuer only, any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands or other applicable jurisdiction, including
pursuant to FATCA); 

  
 138 








 (iii) (A) incur or assume or guarantee any indebtedness, other than the
Notes, this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby or (B)(1) issue or co-issue, as applicable, any additional class of securities except in accordance with
Section 2.13 and 3.2 or (2) issue or co-issue, as applicable, any additional shares; 

(iv) (A) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture or any Grant hereunder to be impaired, or permit the lien
of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or obligations with respect to this Indenture or the Notes except as may be permitted hereby or by the
Collateral Management Agreement, (B) except as permitted by this Indenture, permit any lien, charge, adverse claim, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien of this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or
otherwise arise upon or burden any part of the Assets, any interest therein or the proceeds thereof, or (C) except as permitted by this Indenture, take any action that would permit the lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid first
priority security interest in the Assets; 
 (v) amend the Collateral Management Agreement except pursuant to the terms
thereof and Article XV of this Indenture; 
 (vi) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part, except as permitted
hereunder or required by applicable law; 
 (vii) pay any distributions other than in accordance with the Priority of
Payments; 
 (viii) permit the formation of any subsidiaries (except, in the case of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer); 
 (ix) conduct business under any name other than its own; 

(x) have any employees (other than directors or managers to the extent they are employees); 

(xi) sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of Assets, or enter into an agreement or commitment to do so or enter into
or engage in any business with respect to any part of the Assets, except as expressly permitted by both this Indenture and the Collateral Management Agreement; 

(xii) fail to maintain an Independent manager or Independent director, as applicable; or 

(xiii) elect to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(b) The Co-Issuer shall not invest any of its assets in “securities” as such term is defined
in the Investment Company Act, and shall keep all of its assets in Cash. 

  
 139 








 (c) The Co-Issuers shall not be party to any
agreements without including customary “non-petition” and “limited recourse” provisions therein (and shall not amend or eliminate such provisions in any agreement to which it is
party), except for any agreements related to the purchase and sale of any Collateral Obligations or Eligible Investments which contain customary (as determined by the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion) purchase or sale terms or which
are documented using customary (as determined by the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion) loan trading documentation. 
 (d) The
Issuer shall not transfer its membership interest in the Co-Issuer so long as any Secured Notes are Outstanding, and none of the Co-Issuer shall permit the transfer of
its membership interests so long as any Notes are Outstanding. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary,
the Co-Issuers may not acquire any of the Secured Notes; provided that this Section 7.8(d) shall not be deemed to limit an Optional Redemption or Mandatory Redemption pursuant
to the terms of this Indenture. 
 Section 7.9 Statement as to Compliance. On or before August 9th in each calendar year commencing in 2020, or immediately if there has been a Default under this Indenture and prior to the issuance of any Additional Notes pursuant to
Section 2.13, the Issuer, subject to Section 14.3(c), shall deliver to the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes), the Trustee, the Collateral Manager and the
Administrator (to be forwarded by the Trustee or the Administrator, as applicable, to each Holder making a written request therefor) an Officer’s certificate of the Issuer that, having made reasonable inquiries of the Collateral Manager,
and to the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Issuer, there did not exist, as at a date not more than five days prior to the date of the certificate, nor had there existed at any time prior thereto since the date of the last
certificate (if any), any Default hereunder or, if such Default did then exist or had existed, specifying the same and the nature and status thereof, including actions undertaken to remedy the same, and that the Issuer has complied with all of its
obligations under this Indenture or, if such is not the case, specifying those obligations with which it has not complied. 

Section 7.10 Co-Issuers May Consolidate, etc., Only on Certain Terms.
Neither the Issuer nor the Co-Issuer (the “Merging Entity”) shall consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or, except as permitted under this Indenture, transfer or convey all
or substantially all of its assets to any Person, unless permitted by Cayman Islands law (in the case of the Issuer) or United States and Delaware law (in the case of the Co-Issuer) and unless: 

(a) the Merging Entity shall be the surviving corporation, or the Person (if other than the Merging Entity) formed by such consolidation
or into which the Merging Entity is merged or to which all or substantially all of the assets of the Merging Entity are transferred (the “Successor Entity”) (A) if the Merging Entity is the Issuer, shall be a company
incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands or such other jurisdiction approved by a Majority of the Controlling Class, provided that no such approval shall be required in connection with any such transaction undertaken
solely to effect a change in the jurisdiction of incorporation pursuant to Section 7.4, and (B) in any case shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee and each
Holder, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all Secured Notes and the performance and observance of every covenant of this Indenture on its part to be performed or observed, all as provided herein; 

  
 140 








 (b) the S&P Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such
consolidation or merger; 
 (c) if the Merging Entity is not the Successor Entity, the Successor Entity shall have agreed with the Trustee
(i) to observe the same legal requirements for the recognition of such formed or surviving corporation as a legal entity separate and apart from any of its Affiliates as are applicable to the Merging Entity with respect to its Affiliates and
(ii) not to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or transfer or convey the Assets or all or substantially all of its assets to any other Person except in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7.10; 
 (d) if the Merging Entity is not the Successor Entity, the Successor Entity shall have delivered
to the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, the Issuer (and, subject to Section 14.3(c), the Issuer shall have delivered to the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) an Officer’s certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such Person is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction in which such Person is organized; that such Person has sufficient power and authority to assume the obligations set
forth in subsection (a) above and to execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto for the purpose of assuming such obligations; that such Person has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of an indenture
supplemental hereto for the purpose of assuming such obligations and that such supplemental indenture is a valid, legal and binding obligation of such Person, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject only to bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law); if the Merging
Entity is the Issuer, that, immediately following the event which causes such Successor Entity to become the successor to the Issuer, (i) such Successor Entity has title, free and clear of any lien, security interest or charge, other than the
lien and security interest of this Indenture and any other Permitted Lien, to the Assets securing the Secured Notes and (ii) the Trustee continues to have a valid perfected first priority security interest in the Assets securing all of the
Secured Notes; and in each case as to such other matters as the Trustee or any Holder may reasonably require; provided that nothing in this clause shall imply or impose a duty on the Trustee to require such other documents; 

(e) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

(f) the Merging Entity shall have notified the Collateral Manager, the Issuer (and, subject to Section 14.3(c), the
Issuer shall have notified the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) of such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance and shall have delivered to the Trustee and each Holder an Officer’s certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance and such supplemental indenture comply with this Article VII and that all conditions precedent in this Article VII relating to such transaction
have been complied with; 
 (g) the Merging Entity shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that after giving effect
to such transaction, neither of the Co-Issuers (or, if applicable, the Successor Entity) will be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; 

  
 141 








 (h) after giving effect to such transaction, the outstanding stock of the Merging Entity (or, if
applicable, the Successor Entity) will not be beneficially owned within the meaning of the Investment Company Act by any U.S. person; 

(i) the fees, costs and expenses of the Trustee (including any reasonable legal fees and expenses) associated with the matters addressed in
this Section 7.10 shall have been paid by the Merging Entity (or, if applicable, the Successor Entity) or otherwise provided for to the satisfaction of the Trustee; and 

(j) after giving effect to such transaction, the Successor Entity is not treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for
U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis (including any tax imposed under Section 1446 of the Code), other than by operation of Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code. 

Section 7.11 Successor Substituted. Upon any consolidation or merger, or transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer in accordance with Section 7.10 in which the Merging Entity is not the surviving corporation, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be
substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Merging Entity under this Indenture with the same effect as if such Person had been named as the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be,
herein. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance, the Person named as the “Issuer” or the “Co-Issuer” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor
which shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article VII may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter, and such Person thereafter shall be released, without further action by any Person, from
its liabilities as obligor and maker on all the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. 

Section 7.12 No Other Business. The Issuer shall not have any employees (other than its officer, if any, and directors to the
extent such officer or directors might be considered employees) and shall not engage in any business or activity other than co-issuing, paying and redeeming the Notes and any Additional Notes co-issued pursuant to this Indenture, acquiring, holding, selling, exchanging, redeeming and pledging, solely for its own account, the Assets and other incidental activities, including entering into the Transaction
Documents to which it is a party. The Co-Issuer shall not engage in any business or activity other than co-issuing and selling the Secured Notes and any Additional Notes
of such Classes co-issued pursuant to this Indenture and other incidental activities. The Co-Issuers may amend, or permit the amendment of, their Memorandum and Articles
of Association (in the case of the Issuer) and certificate of formation and operating agreement (in the case of the Co-Issuer) only if such amendment would satisfy the S&P Rating Agency Condition. 

Section 7.13 [Reserved]. 

Section 7.14 Annual Rating Review. (a) So long as any of the Secured Notes of any Class remain Outstanding, on or before
August 9th in each year commencing in 2020, the Applicable Issuers shall obtain and pay for an annual review of the rating of each such Class of Secured Notes from the Rating Agency so
long as it is rating such Class, as applicable. The Applicable Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Collateral Manager in writing (and the Trustee shall promptly provide the Holders with a copy of such notice) if at any time the
then-current rating of any such Class of Secured Notes has been, or is known will be, changed or withdrawn. 

  
 142 








 (b) The Issuer shall obtain and pay for an annual review of any Collateral Obligation which has
an S&P Rating derived as set forth in clause (iii)(b) of the part of the definition of the term “S&P Rating”. 

Section 7.15 Reporting. At any time when the Co-Issuers are not subject to Section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and are not exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 12g3 - 2(b) under the Exchange Act, upon the request of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, the Co-Issuers shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished Rule 144A Information to such Holder or beneficial owner, to a prospective purchaser of such Note designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, or to the
Trustee for delivery upon an Issuer Order to such Holder or beneficial owner or a prospective purchaser designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, as the case may be, in order to permit compliance by such Holder or beneficial owner with Rule
144A under the Securities Act in connection with the resale of such Note. “Rule 144A Information” shall be such information as is specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision
thereto). 
 Section 7.16 Calculation Agent. (a) The Issuer hereby agrees that for so long as any Floating Rate Notes
remain Outstanding there will at all times be an agent appointed (which does not control or is not controlled or under common control with the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or their respective Affiliates, and is not a fund or account managed by the
Collateral Manager or Affiliates of the Collateral Manager) to calculate LIBOR in respect of each Interest Accrual Period in accordance with the definition of LIBOR (the “Calculation Agent”). The Issuer hereby appoints the
Collateral Administrator as Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the
Issuer or the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, shall promptly appoint a replacement Calculation Agent which does not control or is not controlled by or under common control
with (x) the Issuer or its respective Affiliates, (y) the Collateral Manager or its Affiliates or (z) funds or accounts managed by the Collateral Manager or Affiliates of the Collateral Manager. The Calculation Agent may not resign
its duties or be removed without a successor having been duly appointed. 
 (b) The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree (and the
Collateral Administrator as Calculation Agent does hereby agree) that, unless an Alternative Rate has replaced LIBOR, as soon as possible after 11:00 a.m. London time on each Interest Determination Date, but in no event later than 11:00 a.m.
New York time on the London Banking Day immediately following each Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent shall calculate the Interest Rate applicable to each Class of Floating Rate Notes during the related Interest Accrual Period
and the Note Interest Amount (in each case, rounded to the nearest cent, with half a cent being rounded upward) payable on the related Payment Date in respect of such Class of Floating Rate Notes in respect of the related Interest Accrual
Period. At such time, the Calculation Agent shall communicate such rates and amounts to the Co-Issuers, the Trustee, each Paying Agent, the Collateral Manager, Euroclear and Clearstream. The Calculation Agent
shall also specify to the Co-Issuers the quotations upon which 

  
 143 








 
the foregoing rates and amounts are based, and in any event the Calculation Agent shall notify the Co-Issuers before 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on
every Interest Determination Date if it has not determined and is not in the process of determining any such Interest Rate or Note Interest Amount together with its reasons therefor. The Calculation Agent’s determination of the foregoing
rates and amounts for any Interest Accrual Period shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all parties. 
 (c)
Upon a change of LIBOR to an Alternative Rate pursuant to a Notice of Alternative Rate, the Calculation Agent and the Collateral Manager shall confer and consult in good faith to determine and adopt any technical, administrative or operational
changes necessary or advisable to provide for the calculation of such Alternative Rate in a manner substantially consistent with market practice and that is administratively feasible (in the judgment of the Collateral Manager); provided that nothing
herein shall be deemed to impose or expand any discretionary obligations on the Calculation Agent under this Indenture or the Transaction Documents (including with respect to, but not limited to, the designation of a replacement reference rate or
any modifier thereto); provided, further, that neither the Collateral Manager nor the Calculation Agent shall have any liability for changes employed pursuant to this paragraph. 

(d) The Calculation Agent and the Trustee shall have no (i) responsibility or liability for selecting an alternative or replacement
reference rate (including any modifier thereto) as a successor or replacement benchmark to LIBOR or determining whether any such rate is a Designated Alternative Rate or whether the conditions to the designation of such rate have been satisfied and
shall be entitled to rely upon any designation of such a rate (and any modifier) by the Collateral Manager and (ii) liability for any failure or delay in performing their duties hereunder or under other Transaction Documents as a result of the
unavailability of “LIBOR” or any other reference rate as described herein. 
 Section 7.17 Certain Tax Matters.
(a) As of the Closing Date, the Issuer shall elect to be classified, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a disregarded entity wholly owned by the sole beneficial owner of the Subordinated Notes. So long as there is one beneficial tax owner
of the Subordinated Notes, such beneficial owner agrees or shall be deemed to agree to treat the assets and liabilities of the Issuer as those of the sole beneficial owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(b) The Issuer shall treat each purchase of Collateral Obligations (other than those transferred to it from a Person from whom the Issuer is
disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes) as a “purchase” for tax accounting and reporting purposes. 
 (c) The Issuer and
the Co-Issuer shall file, or cause to be filed, any tax returns, including information tax returns, required by any governmental authority. 

(d) If the Issuer is aware that it has participated in a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Section 6011 of the
Code, and a Holder or beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note (or any other Note that is required to be treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) requests in writing information about any such transactions in which the Issuer is an
investor, the Issuer shall provide (to the extent it can reasonably obtain such information), or cause its Independent accountants to provide, such information that is required to be obtained by such Holder or beneficial owner under the Code as soon
as practicable after such request. 

  
 144 








 (e) Upon a change to an Alternative Rate, if the Issuer (in consultation with nationally
recognized tax counsel) reasonably determines that such change constitutes a “significant modification” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.1001-3, the Issuer will cause its
Independent accountants to comply with any requirements under Treasury Regulation section 1.1273-2(f)(9) (or any successor provision) including (as applicable) to (i) by determining whether the Secured
Notes subject to the Alternative Rate is traded on an established market, and (ii) if so traded, by determining the fair market value of such Secured Notes and making available such fair market value determination to holders in a commercially
reasonable fashion, including by electronic publication, within 90 days of the date that the change to the Alternative Rate occurs. 
 (f)
Upon the Issuer’s receipt of a request of a Holder of a Secured Notes or written request of a Person certifying that it is an owner of a beneficial interest in a Secured Notes for the information described in United States Treasury Regulations
section 1.1275-3(b)(1)(i) that is applicable to such Note, the Issuer shall cause its Independent accountants to provide promptly to the Trustee and such requesting Holder or owner of a beneficial interest in
such Note all of such information. Any additional issuance of Notes shall be accomplished in a manner that will allow the Independent accountants of the Issuer to accurately calculate original issue discount income to holders of the Additional
Notes. 
 (g) If required to prevent the withholding and imposition of U.S. federal income tax on payments made to the Issuer, the Issuer
shall deliver or cause to be delivered an IRS Form W-9 of its sole owner or, for periods during which the Issuer is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an IRS Form W-8IMY, as applicable, or an applicable successor form and any relevant supporting documentation to each Obligor of or counterparty with respect to an Asset at the time such Asset is acquired or entered into by the
Issuer and thereafter prior to the obsolescence or expiration of such form. 
 (h) The Issuer shall use reasonable best efforts to achieve
Tax Account Reporting Rules Compliance, including, if necessary, to amend this Indenture to achieve such compliance and to cause the Holders to comply with their Holder Tax Obligations. 

(i) No more than 50% of the debt obligations (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) held by the Issuer may at any time consist of
real estate mortgages as determined for purposes of Section 7701(i) of the Code unless, based on written advice of Dechert LLP or an opinion of U.S. tax counsel from another nationally recognized law firm experienced in such matters, the
ownership of such debt obligations will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a taxable mortgage pool for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 7.17(i) shall be construed to
permit the Issuer to purchase real estate mortgages. 
 (j) With respect to periods during which the Issuer is treated as a partnership for
U.S. federal income tax purposes, the BDC shall be the “partnership representative” (as defined in Section 6223 of the Code). If the BDC is not eligible to serve as the partnership representative of the Issuer, all equity owners of
the Issuer shall be deemed to have agreed to appoint ABPCI as the 

  
 145 








 
agent and attorney-in-fact of the partnership representative. By its acceptance thereof, ABPCI and each holder of
Notes hereby agrees to irrevocably appoint ABPCI as its agent to perform all of the duties of the partnership representative for the Issuer. In the event the Issuer shall be the subject of an income tax audit by any U.S. federal, state or local
authority, to the extent the Issuer is treated as an entity for purposes of such audit, including administrative settlement and judicial review, the BDC, as partnership representative, or ABPCI, as attorney-in-fact and agent of the partnership representative, shall be authorized to act for, and its decision shall be final and binding upon, the Issuer and each partner thereof. All expenses incurred in
connection with any such audit, investigation, settlement or review shall be borne by the Issuer. The Issuer shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, reimburse and indemnify the partnership representative or the agent and attorney-in-fact of the partnership representative in connection with any expenses reasonably incurred in connection with its performance of its duties as or on behalf of the
partnership representative, which expenses shall be paid as Administrative Expenses in accordance with the Priority of Payments. 
 (k) So
long as the Issuer is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide (or cause to be provided) each person who was a beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note (or any
other Class of Notes, to the extent such Class of Notes is treated as equity in the Issuer) (a “Partner”) at any time during a taxable year with an annual statement (including a Schedule
K-1 to IRS Form 1065) indicating such beneficial owner’s allocable share of the Issuer’s tax items for such year taxable year. 

(l) So long as the Issuer is a partnership, the partnership representative shall sign the Issuer’s tax returns and is authorized to make
tax elections on behalf of the Issuer in its reasonable discretion, to determine the amount and characterization of any allocations or tax items described in this Indenture in its reasonable discretion, and to take all actions and do such things as
required or as it shall deem appropriate under the Code, at the Issuer’s sole expense. Any action taken by the partnership representative in connection with audits of the Issuer under the Code will, to the extent permitted by law, be binding
upon the Partners. Each such Partner agrees that it will treat any Issuer item on such Partner’s income tax returns consistently with the treatment of the item on the Issuer’s tax return and that such Partner will not independently act
with respect to tax audits or tax litigation affecting the Issuer, unless previously authorized to do so in writing by the partnership representative, which authorization may be withheld in the complete discretion of the partnership representative.

 (m) If the IRS, in connection with an audit governed by the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, proposes an adjustment greater than $25,000 in
the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of the Issuer, or any Partner’s distributive share thereof, and such adjustment results in an “imputed underpayment” as described in Section 6225(b) of the Code,
together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions (a “Covered Audit Adjustment”), the partnership representative will use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account whether the Issuer has received any
needed information on a timely basis from the partners), to apply the alternative method provided by Section 6226 of the Code, together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions (the “Alternative Method”). In
the event the proposed adjustment is equal to or less than $25,000, the partnership representative may in its sole discretion elect to have the Issuer pay such adjustment. To the extent that the partnership representative does not (or is unable to)
elect the Alternative Method with respect to a Covered

Audit Adjustment and such Covered Audit Adjustment is material as to the Issuer (determined in the partnership representative’s discretion), the partnership representative shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to (i) to the extent not economically or administratively burdensome, make reasonable any modifications available under Sections 6225(c)(3), (4) and (5) of the Code, together with any guidance issued
thereunder or successor provisions, to the extent that such modifications are available (taking into account whether the partnership representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Partners) and would reduce any taxes
payable by the Issuer with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment, and (ii) if reasonably requested by a Partner, provide to such Partner available information allowing such Partner to file an amended U.S. federal income tax return, as
described in Section 6225(c)(2) of the Code, together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions, to the extent that such amended return and payment of any related U.S. federal income taxes would reduce any taxes payable by the
Issuer with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment (after taking into account any modifications described in clause (i)). Similar procedures shall be followed in connection with any state or local income tax audit governed by the Partnership Tax
Audit Rules. Any U.S. federal income taxes (and any related interest and penalties) paid by the Issuer (or any diminution in distributable proceeds resulting from an adjustment under Partnership Tax Audit Rules) may be allocated in the reasonable
discretion of the Issuer to those Partners to whom such amounts are specifically attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions or otherwise), as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Issuer. 

(n) (i) So long as the Issuer is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Issuer shall maintain, or cause to be
maintained, a separate capital account for each Partner in accordance with the principles and requirements set forth in Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. 

(ii) After giving effect to Section 7.17(n)(iii) through (vi), all Issuer items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall
be allocated among the Partners in a manner such that, after the allocation, each such Partner’s capital account is equal (as nearly as possible) to the amount that such Partner would receive from the Issuer if the Issuer (i) sold all of
its assets for their “book values” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)), (ii) applied the proceeds to discharge Issuer liabilities at face amount (limited with
respect to each nonrecourse liability to the book values of the assets securing such liability), and (iii) distributed the remaining proceeds in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture (other than this Section 7.17), minus the sum
of such Partner’s share of “partnership minimum gain” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(2)) and “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” (within the
meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(3)). 
 (iii) This
Section 7.17(n)(iii) incorporates by reference, as if fully set forth herein, the “minimum gain chargeback” requirement contained in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), the
“partner minimum gain chargeback” requirement contained in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i), and the “qualified income offset” requirement contained in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). 

  
 147 








 (iv) In the event that any Partner has a deficit capital account at the end of
any Issuer taxable year that is in excess of the amount such Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Partner will be allocated items of Issuer income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an allocation pursuant to this
Section 7.17(n)(iv) will be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have a deficit capital account in excess of such amount after all other allocations provided for in this Section 7.17 have been tentatively made as if this
Section 7.17 did not include this Section 7.17(n)(iv) or the “qualified income offset” requirement of Section 7.17(n)(iii). 

(v) Nonrecourse deductions (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) will be specially allocated to the Partners in the same manner as if they were not nonrecourse deductions. 

(vi) No Partner will be allocated items of loss or deduction under Section 7.17(n)(ii) through (v) if such allocation
would cause or increase a deficit balance in such Partner’s capital account as of the end of the Issuer taxable year to which such allocation relates, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). 
 (vii) It is the intent of the Issuer that, to
the extent possible, all special allocations made pursuant to Section 7.17(n)(iii) through (vi) be offset either with other special allocations made pursuant to Section 7.17(n)(iii) through (vi) or with special allocations made
pursuant to this Section 7.17(n)(vii). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.17 (other than Section 7.17(n)(iii) through (vi)), offsetting special allocations of Issuer items of income, gain, loss and
deduction will be made so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, the capital account balance of each Partner is, to the extent possible, equal to the capital account balance such Partner would have had if the special allocations made
pursuant to Section 7.17(n)(iii) through (vi) were not part of this Section 7.17 and all Issuer items of income, gain, loss and deduction were allocated pursuant to Section 7.17(n)(ii). 

(o) For U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, items of Issuer income, gain, loss, and deduction will be allocated among the
Partners in accordance with the allocations of the corresponding items for capital account purposes under this Section 7.17(o), except that items with respect to which there is a difference between adjusted tax basis and book value will be
allocated in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code using a method chosen by the partnership representative as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3. 

Section 7.18 Effective Date. (a) The Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to acquire (or enter into commitments
to acquire), on or before the Effective Date, Collateral Obligations (a) such that the Target Initial Par Condition is satisfied and (b) that satisfy, as of the Effective Date, the Concentration Limitations, the Collateral Quality Test
(excluding the S&P CDO Monitor Test) and the Coverage Tests. On or before the Effective Date (and, to the extent necessary to secure the confirmations referenced in Section 7.18(c), after the Effective Date), the Issuer shall use the
following funds, in the following order, to acquire such Collateral Obligations: (i) to pay for the principal portion of any Collateral Obligation from, first, any amounts on deposit in the Ramp-Up
Account and second, any Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Collection Account and (ii) to pay for accrued interest on any such Collateral Obligation from any amounts on deposit in the Ramp-Up

subject to the terms of, the Collateral Administration Agreement) identifying the Collateral Obligations and a request to the Rating Agency to confirm its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes; (ii) to the Rating Agency, a report (which the
Issuer shall cause the Collateral Administrator to prepare on its behalf in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, the Collateral Administration Agreement, and may be in the form of a Monthly Report) stating the following information (the
“Effective Date Report”): (A) with respect to each Collateral Obligation as of the Effective Date, the Obligor, principal balance, coupon/spread, the LIBOR floor, if any, stated maturity, S&P Rating, country of domicile and
identification as to whether it is a Senior Secured Loan, a Second Lien Loan, a First Lien/Last Out Loan, a Qualified First Lien Loan or a Senior Secured Loan with a Senior Revolver Facility and (B) as of the Effective Date, the level of

the Obligor, principal balance, coupon/spread, the LIBOR floor, if any, stated maturity, S&P Rating, country of domicile and identification as to whether it is a Senior Secured Loan, a Second Lien Loan, a First Lien/Last Out Loan, a Qualified
First Lien Loan or a Senior Secured Loan with a Senior Revolver Facility, (B) calculating as of the Effective Date, the level of compliance with, or satisfaction or non-satisfaction of (1) the Target
Initial Par Condition, (2) each Coverage Test, (3) the Concentration Limitations and (4) the Collateral Quality Test (excluding the S&P CDO Monitor Test), and (C) specifying the procedures undertaken by them to review data
and computations relating to such Accountants’ Certificate. 
 (c) If prior to the date 40 Business Days after the Effective Date,
(1) the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) has not provided to the Rating Agency an Effective Date Report that shows that the Target Initial Par Condition was satisfied, each Overcollateralization Ratio Test was
satisfied, the Concentration Limitations were complied with and the Collateral Quality Test (excluding the S&P CDO Monitor Test) was satisfied (such Effective Date Report, a “Passing Report”) and (2) S&P has not
provided written confirmation (which may take the form of a press release or other written communication) of its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes (the occurrence of the events described in both clauses (1) and (2) of this clause
(c) constituting an “Rating Confirmation Failure”) then (A) the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) prior to the first Payment Date shall (i) provide a Passing Report to the Rating Agency
and/or (ii) request S&P to confirm prior to the first Payment Date that it will not reduce or withdraw its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes and (B) if, prior to the first Payment Date, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the
Issuer’s behalf) has not provided a Passing Report to the Rating Agency, or obtained such confirmation from S&P as described in the immediately preceding clause (A) of this clause (c), the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the
Issuer’s behalf) shall instruct the Trustee to transfer amounts from the Interest Collection Subaccount and/or the Ramp-Up Account to the Principal Collection Subaccount and may, prior


  
 149 








 
to the first Payment Date thereafter, use such funds on behalf of the Issuer for the acquisition of additional Collateral Obligations in an amount sufficient to enable the Issuer (or the
Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) to (i) provide to the Rating Agency a Passing Report and/or (ii) obtain from S&P written confirmation (which may take the form of a press release or other written communication) of its
Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes; provided that in lieu of any such transfer and application of funds as aforesaid, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) may take such action, including but not limited to, an
Effective Date-Related Redemption and/or transferring amounts from the Interest Collection Subaccount and/or the Ramp-Up Account to the Principal Collection Subaccount as Principal Proceeds (for use in an
Effective Date-Related Redemption), sufficient to enable the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) to (1) provide to the Rating Agency a Passing Report (to be determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the
application of proceeds pursuant to this paragraph) and/or (2) obtain from S&P written confirmation (which may take the form of a press release or other written communication) of its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes; provided,
further, that amounts may not be transferred from the Interest Collection Subaccount to the Principal Collection Subaccount if, after giving effect to such transfer, (I) the amounts available pursuant to the Priority of Payments on the
next succeeding Payment Date would be insufficient to pay the full amount of the accrued and unpaid interest on any Class of Secured Notes on such next succeeding Payment Date or (II) such transfer would result in a deferral of interest
with respect to the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes on the next succeeding Payment Date. 
 (d) The Collateral Manager may, so
long as such election has not already been made, at any time after the Closing Date (upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to S&P, the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator) elect to utilize the S&P CDO Monitor in determining
compliance with the S&P CDO Monitor Test (the effective date specified by the Collateral Manager for such election, the “S&P CDO Monitor Election Date”).

(vii) modify the definitions of the terms “Outstanding” or “Reinvestment Period” or the Priority of
Payments set forth in Section 11.1(a); or 
 (viii) subject to
Section 8.2(b) below, modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal on any Secured Note or any amount available for
distribution to the Subordinated Notes, or to affect the rights of the Holders of any Secured Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the redemption of such Secured Notes contained herein. 

(b) The entry into any supplemental indenture for the purpose of reducing the interest rate on any Class of Secured Notes (any such Class,
the “Reduced Interest Class”) shall be deemed not to have a material and adverse effect on any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes except the Holders and beneficial owners of the Reduced Interest Class. Any such supplemental
indenture shall not require the consent of any Holder of any Class of Notes except the Reduced Interest Class but shall, for the avoidance of doubt, require the consent of each Holder of the Reduced Interest Class. 

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision relating to supplemental indentures, at any time after the expiration of the Non-Call Period, if any Class of Notes has been or contemporaneously with the effectiveness of any supplemental indenture will be paid in full in accordance with this Indenture as so supplemented or amended,
the written consent of any holder of any Note of such Class shall not be required with respect to such supplemental indenture. 

  
 157 








 (d) With respect to any supplemental indenture which, by its terms, (x) provides for an
Optional Redemption by Refinancing, of all, but not less than all, Classes of the Secured Notes in whole, but not in part, and (y) is consented to by the Holders of at least a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained or implied elsewhere in this Indenture, the Collateral Manager may, without regard to any other consent requirement specified in this Article VIII or elsewhere herein, cause such supplemental indenture to also
(A) effect an extension of the end of the Reinvestment Period, (B) establish a non-call period for the replacement Notes or loans issued to replace such Secured Notes or prohibit a future refinancing
of such replacement securities, (C) modify the Maximum Weighted Average Life Test, (D) provide for a stated maturity of such replacement Notes or loans that is later than the Stated Maturity of the Secured Notes, (E) effect an
extension of the Stated Maturity of the Subordinated Notes, and/or (F) make any other supplements or amendments to this Indenture that would otherwise be subject to the consent rights set forth in this Article VIII (a “Reset
Amendment”). For the avoidance of doubt, Reset Amendments are not subject to any consent requirements that would otherwise apply to supplemental indentures described in this Article VIII or elsewhere in this Indenture. 

Section 8.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. (a) The Trustee shall join in the execution of any such supplemental
indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. 
 (b) The Trustee shall be entitled to
receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (which may be supported as to factual (including financial and capital markets) matters by any relevant certificates and other documents necessary or advisable in the judgment of counsel
delivering such Opinion of Counsel) or an Officer’s certificate of the Collateral Manager (as applicable) as to whether the interests of any Holder of Notes would be materially and adversely affected by the modifications set forth in any
supplemental indenture; provided that if a Majority of any Class of Notes has provided written notice to the Trustee at least one Business Day prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture that such Class would be materially
and adversely affected thereby, the Trustee shall not be entitled to rely on an Opinion of Counsel or an Officer’s certificate of the Collateral Manager as to whether or not the Holders of such Class would be materially and adversely
affected by such supplemental indenture and shall not enter into such supplemental indenture without the consent of a Majority of each such Class. Such determination by such Class as to whether the interests of any Holder have been materially
and adversely affected shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders. The Trustee shall not be liable for any determination made in good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel or such Officer’s certificate of the
Collateral Manager delivered to the Trustee as described herein. 
 (c) In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article VIII or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.3) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized and permitted by this Indenture and an Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s certificate of the Collateral Manager stating that
all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied. The Trustee shall not be liable for any reliance made in good faith upon such an Opinion of Counsel or such an Officer’s certificate of the Collateral Manager. Such determination shall, in
each case, be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders. 

  
 158 








 (d) In the case of any proposed supplemental indenture described in clauses (viii) or (ix)
of Section 8.1 that would also implicate any one or more of the other clauses of Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, the required consents for executing such supplemental
indenture shall be governed by the requirements of such clause (viii) or (ix) of Section 8.1, as applicable, and not by any other clauses of Section 8.1 or
Section 8.2. 
 (e) At the cost of the Issuer, for so long as any Notes shall remain Outstanding, not later than 10
Business Days prior to the execution of any proposed supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, the Trustee shall deliver to the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Administrator
and the Holders (other than, with respect to a supplemental indenture to effect a Refinancing, the Holders of Notes to be redeemed in connection with such Refinancing) a copy of such proposed supplemental indenture. If any changes are made to such
supplemental indenture other than to correct typographical errors or to adjust formatting following delivery of such proposed supplemental indenture by the Trustee, at the cost of the Issuer, not later than five Business Days prior to the execution
of such proposed supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall deliver to the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Administrator and the Holders (other than, with respect to a supplemental indenture to effect a Refinancing, the Holders of Notes to be
redeemed in connection with such Refinancing) a copy of such revised supplemental indenture indicating the changes that were made. At the cost of the Issuer, for so long as any Class of Secured Notes shall remain Outstanding and such
Class is rated by S&P, the Issuer shall provide to S&P (i) a copy of any proposed supplemental indenture at least 15 Business Days prior to the execution thereof and (ii) a copy of the executed supplemental indenture after its
execution. At the cost of the Issuer, the Trustee shall provide to the Holders (in the manner described in Section 14.4) a copy of the executed supplemental indenture after its execution together with a copy of any
confirmations from S&P that were received in connection with the supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Trustee to publish or deliver such notice, or any defect therein, shall not in any way impair or affect the validity of any such
supplemental indenture. 
 (f) It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental
indenture, but it shall be sufficient, if the consent of any Holders to such proposed supplemental indenture is required, that such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 

(g) The Collateral Manager shall not be bound to follow any supplement to this Indenture until it has received a copy of any such supplement
from the Issuer or the Trustee and, if such supplement, as described above, requires the Collateral Manager’s consent, shall have consented thereto in writing, and until such supplement is in fact validly executed and enforceable. Neither the
Trustee nor the Collateral Administrator shall be obligated to enter into any supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s or the Collateral Administrator’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise. 
 Section 8.4 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this
Article VIII, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Notes theretofore and thereafter authenticated and delivered
hereunder shall be bound thereby. 

  
 159 








 Section 8.5 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Notes authenticated and
delivered as part of a transfer, exchange or replacement pursuant to Article II of Notes originally issued hereunder after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article VIII may, and if
required by the Issuer shall, bear a notice in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Applicable Issuers shall so determine, new Notes, so modified as to conform in the opinion of the Co-Issuers to any such supplemental indenture, may be prepared and executed by the Applicable Issuers and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes. 

ARTICLE IX 
 REDEMPTION
OF NOTES 
 Section 9.1 Mandatory Redemption. If a Coverage Test is not satisfied on any Determination Date on which such
Coverage Test is applicable, the Applicable Issuers shall apply available amounts in the Payment Account to make payments on the Secured Notes pursuant to the Priority of Payments (a “Mandatory Redemption”). 

Section 9.2 Optional Redemption. (a) The Secured Notes shall be redeemable by the Applicable Issuers, on any Business Day
after the Non-Call Period, at the written direction of a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, as follows based upon such written direction: (i) in whole (with respect to all Classes of Secured Notes) but
not in part from Sale Proceeds and/or Refinancing Proceeds; provided that, in the case of a redemption from Refinancing Proceeds, the Collateral Manager has consented thereto; or (ii) in part by Class from Refinancing Proceeds and
Partial Refinancing Interest Proceeds (so long as any Class of Secured Notes to be redeemed represents not less than the entire Class of such Secured Notes) with the consent of the Collateral Manager. In connection with any such Optional
Redemption, the Secured Notes shall be redeemed at the applicable Redemption Prices and a Majority of the Subordinated Notes must provide the above described written direction to the Issuer and the Trustee not later than 30 days (or such shorter
period of time as the Trustee and the Collateral Manager find reasonably acceptable) prior to the Business Day on which such redemption is to be made; provided that all Secured Notes to be redeemed must be redeemed simultaneously. The terms
of any Refinancing and any financial institutions acting as lenders thereunder or purchasers thereof shall be acceptable to the Collateral Manager and a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, and any such Refinancing shall satisfy the conditions set
forth in this Section 9.2. The Collateral Manager (or an affiliate thereof) shall have the right to acquire one or more Notes of one or more Classes in connection with any Refinancing if the Collateral Manager determines
that such acquisition is necessary to comply with the U.S. Risk Retention Rules. 
 (b) The Subordinated Notes may be redeemed, in whole but
not in part (subject to Sections 9.2(e) with respect to a redemption from proceeds that include Refinancing Proceeds), on any Business Day on or after the redemption or repayment in full of the Secured Notes, at the
direction of a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, or the Collateral Manager on their behalf, to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral Manager. 

(c) The Subordinated Notes may be redeemed, in whole but not in part, on any Business Day on or after the redemption or repayment in full of
the Secured Notes, at the direction of a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, or the Collateral Manager on their behalf, to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral Manager. 

  
 160 








 (d) In the event of any redemption pursuant to this Section 9.2 or
Section 9.3, the Issuer shall, at least 20 days (or such shorter period of time as the Trustee and the Collateral Manager find reasonably acceptable) prior to the Redemption Date, notify the Trustee in writing of such
Redemption Date, the applicable Record Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed on such Redemption Date and the applicable Redemption Prices. 

(e) In the case of a Refinancing upon a redemption of the Secured Notes in whole but not in part, such Refinancing shall only be effective if
(i) the Refinancing Proceeds, all Sale Proceeds from the sale of Collateral Obligations and other Assets in accordance with the procedures set forth herein, and all other available funds (including, without limitation, the proceeds of any
Contribution) will be at least sufficient to redeem simultaneously the Secured Notes, in whole but not in part, and to pay the other amounts included in the aggregate Redemption Price and all accrued and unpaid Administrative Expenses (regardless of
the Administrative Expense Cap), including the reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator (including reasonable attorneys’ fees
and expenses) in connection with such Refinancing, (ii) the Sale Proceeds, Refinancing Proceeds and other available funds (including, without limitation, the proceeds of any Contribution) are used (to the extent necessary) to make such
redemption and (iii) the agreements relating to the Refinancing contain limited recourse and non-petition provisions equivalent (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in Sections 2.7(i) and
5.4(d)(i). 
 (f) In the case of a Refinancing upon a redemption of the Secured Notes in part by Class, such Refinancing shall only be
effective if (i) the Issuer has provided notice to S&P with respect to such Refinancing (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be given in connection with the notice to S&P of a supplemental indenture to be executed in connection with
the Refinancing pursuant to Section 8.3(e)), (ii) the Refinancing Proceeds and Partial Refinancing Interest Proceeds (including, without limitation, the proceeds of any Contribution) will be at least sufficient to pay in full the aggregate
Redemption Prices of the entire Class or Classes of Secured Notes subject to Refinancing, (iii) the Refinancing Proceeds are used (to the extent necessary) to make such redemption, (iv) the agreements relating to the Refinancing
contain limited recourse and non-petition provisions equivalent (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in Sections 2.7(i) and 5.4(d)(i), (v) (A) the aggregate principal amount of each
class of obligations providing the Refinancing is equal to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the corresponding Class of Secured Notes being redeemed with the proceeds of such obligations and (B) with respect to any Class of Secured
Notes that is not being refinanced, after giving effect to the Refinancing, the aggregate principal amount of obligations providing the Refinancing plus the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Secured Notes that are, in each case, senior in priority
to such non-refinanced Class is equal to or less than the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Secured Notes senior in priority to such non-refinanced Class prior
to giving effect to such Refinancing, (vi) the stated maturity of each class of obligations providing the Refinancing is no earlier than the corresponding Stated Maturity of each Class of Secured Notes being refinanced, (vii) the
reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with such Refinancing have been paid or will be adequately provided for from the Refinancing Proceeds (except for expenses owed to persons that the Collateral Manager informs the
Trustee will be paid solely as Administrative Expenses payable in 

  
 161 








 
accordance with the Priority of Payments; provided that any such fees to be paid in accordance with the Priority of Payments shall not be subject to the Administrative Expense Cap), (viii)
the interest rate of any obligations providing the Refinancing will not be greater than the interest rate of the Secured Notes subject to such Refinancing (provided that (A) such condition shall be satisfied if (1) the weighted
average spread over LIBOR or fixed rate with respect to the obligations providing the Refinancing is less than the weighted average spread or fixed rate of the Secured Notes subject to Refinancing or (2) solely with respect to any Class of
Fixed Rate Notes that are being refinanced by obligations with a floating interest rate, the spread with respect to such obligations is equal to or less than (I) the implied interest rate calculated as (x) the fixed coupon minus
(y) the forward implied swap rate for a designated maturity equal to the weighted average life of such Notes, as determined by the Collateral Manager, or (II) the initial spread applicable to any Pari Passu Class of Floating Rate
Notes then applicable to such Floating Rate Notes and (B) any Pari Passu Class may be refinanced using a single class of fixed rate obligations or floating rate obligations), (ix) the obligations providing the Refinancing are subject to
the Priority of Payments and do not rank higher in priority pursuant to the Priority of Payments than the Class of Secured Notes being refinanced, (x) the voting rights, consent rights, redemption rights and all other rights of the
obligations providing the Refinancing are the same as the rights of the corresponding Class of Secured Notes being refinanced, (xi) an Opinion of Counsel of nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel experienced in such matters shall be
delivered to the Trustee to the effect that such Refinancing will not result in the Issuer becoming subject to U.S. federal income taxation with respect to its net income (including any tax imposed under Section 1446 of the Code), other than by
operation of Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code or result in the Issuer being treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (xii) except as provided in the immediately following
sentence, any loan or issuance of replacement securities in connection with the Refinancing shall be first offered to holders of the entire Class or Classes of Secured Notes subject to Refinancing. The Collateral Manager (or an affiliate
thereof) shall have the right to acquire one or more Notes of one or more Classes in connection with any Refinancing if the Collateral Manager determines that such acquisition is necessary to comply with the U.S. Risk Retention Rules. 

(g) The Holders of the Subordinated Notes shall not have any cause of action against any of the
Co-Issuers, the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Administrator or the Trustee for any failure to obtain a Refinancing. If a Refinancing is obtained meeting the requirements specified above as certified by
the Collateral Manager, the Co-Issuers and the Trustee shall amend this Indenture to the extent necessary to reflect the terms of the Refinancing and no further consent for such amendments shall be required
from the Holders of Notes (other than a Majority of the Subordinated Notes). The Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment that, in its view, adversely affects its duties, obligations, liabilities or protections hereunder, and the
Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon an Officer’s certificate and/or Opinion of Counsel as to matters of law (which may be supported as to factual (including financial and capital markets) matters by any relevant certificates and
other documents necessary or advisable in the judgment of counsel delivering such opinion of counsel) provided by the Issuer to the effect that such amendment meets the requirements specified above and is authorized and permitted under this
Indenture (except that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to opine as to the sufficiency of the Refinancing Proceeds). 

  
 162 








 (h) In connection with any Optional Redemption of Secured Notes, Holders of 100% of the Aggregate
Outstanding Amount of any Class of Secured Notes by notification to the Trustee in writing prior to the Redemption Date may elect to receive less than 100% of the Redemption Price that would otherwise be payable to the Holders of such
Class of Secured Notes in accordance with the definition of “Redemption Price”. 
 (i) Any rating of replacement securities in
connection with a Refinancing by the Rating Agency will be based on a credit analysis specific to such replacement securities and independent of the rating of the Secured Notes being refinanced. 

Section 9.3 Tax Redemption. (a) The Notes shall be redeemed in whole but not in part (any such redemption, a “Tax
Redemption”) at their applicable Redemption Prices at the written direction (delivered to the Trustee) of (x) a Majority of any Affected Class or (y) a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, in either case following the
occurrence of (and due to) a Tax Event. 
 (b) In connection with any Tax Redemption, Holders of 100% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of
any Class of Secured Notes by notifying the Trustee in writing prior to the Redemption Date may elect to receive less than 100% of the Redemption Price that would otherwise be payable to the Holders of such Class of Secured Notes in
accordance with the definition of “Redemption Price”. 
 (c) Upon its receipt of such written direction directing a Tax Redemption,
the Trustee shall promptly notify the Collateral Manager, the Holders and the Issuer (which shall notify the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) thereof. 

(d) If an Officer of the Collateral Manager obtains actual knowledge of the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Collateral Manager shall promptly
notify in writing the Administrator and the Co-Issuers (and the Issuer shall notify the Rating Agency so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes), the Collateral Administrator and the Trustee
thereof, and upon receipt of such notice the Trustee shall promptly notify the Holders of the Notes. Until the Trustee receives written notice from the Collateral Manager or otherwise, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge to
the contrary. 
 Section 9.4 Redemption Procedures. (a) In the event of any redemption pursuant to
Section 9.2 or 9.3, the written direction required thereby shall be provided to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral Manager not later than 30 days (or such shorter period of time as the Trustee and the
Collateral Manager find reasonably acceptable) prior to the applicable Redemption Date (which date shall be designated in such notice). In the event of any redemption pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3, a notice of
redemption shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not later than four Business Days prior to the applicable Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s address in the Register and the Rating Agency. 

(b) All notices of redemption delivered pursuant to Section 9.4(a) shall state: 

(i) the applicable Redemption Date; 

(ii) the Redemption Prices of the Notes to be redeemed; 

  
 163 








 (iii) all of the Secured Notes that are to be redeemed are to be redeemed in full
and that interest on such Secured Notes shall cease to accrue on the Redemption Date specified in the notice; 
 (iv) whether
the Secured Notes are to be redeemed in full on such Redemption Date and, if so, the place or places where Secured Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Prices, which shall be the office or agency of the Co-Issuers to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2; and 

(v) whether the Subordinated Notes are to be redeemed in full on such Redemption Date and, if so, the place or places where the
Subordinated Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Prices, which shall be the office or agency of the Co-Issuers to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2. 

(c) The Issuer may (or if directed by a Majority of the Subordinated Notes, shall) withdraw any such notice of redemption delivered pursuant to
Section 9.2 at any time prior to 10:00 a.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled Redemption Date. In addition, the Issuer may withdraw any such notice of redemption delivered pursuant to
Section 9.3 in connection with a Tax Redemption if the conditions required hereunder for such redemption are not satisfied at any time prior to 10:00 a.m. New York time on the scheduled Redemption Date. The Issuer shall
provide notice of any such withdrawal to the Rating Agency. The failure to effect any Optional Redemption which is withdrawn by the Issuer in accordance with this Indenture or with respect to which a Refinancing fails to occur shall not constitute
an Event of Default. 
 (d) Notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3 shall be given by the Co-Issuers or, upon an Issuer Order, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Co-Issuers. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any
Holder of any Notes selected for redemption shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Notes. 
 (e) Unless
Refinancing Proceeds are being used to redeem the Secured Notes in whole or in part, upon receipt of a notice of redemption of the Secured Notes pursuant to Section 9.2(a) or Section 9.3, the
Collateral Manager in its sole discretion shall direct the sale or sales (and the manner thereof) of all or part of the Collateral Obligations and other Assets in an amount sufficient such that the proceeds from such sale or sales and all other
funds available for such purpose in the Collection Account and the Payment Account will be at least sufficient to pay the Redemption Prices of the Secured Notes and to pay all amounts set forth in clauses (A) (without regard to the Administrative
Expense Cap) and (B) of Section 11.1(a)(i), as more particularly set forth in Section 9.4(f) below. If such proceeds of such sale and all other funds available for such purpose in the
Collection Account and the Payment Account would not be sufficient to redeem all of the Secured Notes and to pay such fees and expenses, the Secured Notes may not be redeemed. The Collateral Manager, in its sole discretion, may effect the sale or
sales of all or any part of the Collateral Obligations or other Assets through the direct sale of such Collateral Obligations or other Assets or by participation or other arrangement. 

  
 164 








 (f) Unless Refinancing Proceeds are being used to redeem the Secured Notes in whole or in part,
in the event of any redemption pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3, no Secured Notes may be optionally redeemed unless (i) at least five Business Days before the scheduled Redemption Date the Collateral Manager shall
have furnished to the Trustee evidence, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, that the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer has entered into a binding agreement or agreements with a financial or other institution or institutions
whose short-term unsecured debt obligations (other than such obligations whose rating is based on the credit of a Person other than such institution) were rated, or guaranteed by a Person whose short-term unsecured debt obligations were rated, at
least “A-” by S&P on the applicable trade date or trade dates to purchase (directly or by participation or other arrangement), not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled
Redemption Date in immediately available funds, all or part of the Assets at a purchase price at least sufficient, together with the Eligible Investments maturing, redeemable or putable to the issuer thereof at par on or prior to the scheduled
Redemption Date, to pay all amounts set forth in clauses (A) (without regard to the Administrative Expense Cap) and (B) of Section 11.1(a)(i), and redeem all of the Secured Notes on the scheduled Redemption Date at the
applicable Redemption Prices, or (ii) prior to selling any Collateral Obligations and/or Eligible Investments, the Collateral Manager shall certify to the Trustee that, in its judgment, the aggregate sum of (A) expected proceeds from the
sale of Eligible Investments, and (B) for each Collateral Obligation, the product of its Principal Balance and its Market Value (provided that Market Value shall not be determined pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) of the definition
thereof) (expressed as a percentage of the par amount of such Collateral Obligation), shall exceed the sum of (x) the aggregate Redemption Prices of the Outstanding Secured Notes and (y) all amounts set forth in clauses (A) (without regard
to the Administrative Expense Cap) and (B) of Section 11.1(a)(i). Any certification delivered by the Collateral Manager pursuant to this Section 9.4(f) shall include (1) the prices of,
and expected proceeds from, the sale (directly or by participation or other arrangement) of any Collateral Obligations and/or Eligible Investments and (2) all calculations required by this Section 9.4(f). Any
holder of Notes, the Collateral Manager or any of the Collateral Manager’s Affiliates or accounts managed by the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates shall have the right, subject to the same terms and conditions afforded to other
bidders, to bid on Assets to be sold as part of an Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption. 
 Section 9.5 Notes Payable on Redemption
Date. (a) Notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.4 having been given as aforesaid, the Notes shall, on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 9.4(f) and the Co-Issuers’ right to withdraw any notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.4(c), become due and payable at the Redemption Prices therein specified, and from and after the Redemption
Date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Prices and accrued interest) all such Notes that are Secured Notes shall cease to bear interest on the Redemption Date. Upon final payment on a Note to be so redeemed in
full, the Holder shall present and surrender such Note at the place specified in the notice of redemption on or prior to such Redemption Date. Payments of interest on Secured Notes so to be redeemed which are payable on or prior to the Redemption
Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Secured Notes, or one or more predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Date according to the terms and provisions of Section 2.7(e).

 (b) If any Secured Notes called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal thereof shall, until
paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the applicable Interest Rate for each successive Interest Accrual Period such Secured Notes remains Outstanding; provided that the reason for such
non-payment is not the fault of such Holder. 

  
 165 








 Section 9.6 Special Redemption and Effective Date-Related Redemption Principal
payments on the Secured Notes shall be made in part in accordance with the Priority of Payments on any Payment Date during the Reinvestment Period (any such date, a “Special Redemption Date”), if the Collateral Manager at its sole
discretion notifies the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the applicable Special Redemption Date that it has been unable, for a period of at least 20 consecutive Business Days, to identify additional Collateral Obligations that are deemed
appropriate by the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion and which would satisfy the Investment Criteria in sufficient amounts to permit the investment or reinvestment of all or a portion of the funds then in the Collection Account that are to
be invested in additional Collateral Obligations (a “Special Redemption”). 
 On the Special Redemption Date, the amount in
the Collection Account representing Principal Proceeds which the Collateral Manager has determined (with written notice to the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator) cannot be reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations (such amount, the
“Special Redemption Amount”) shall be applied as described in the Priority of Payments in accordance with the Note Payment Sequence and the Reinvestment Period shall terminate. 

Principal payments on the Notes shall be made in whole or in part, at par without payment of any redemption premium, in accordance with the
Priority of Payments if, after the Effective Date, the Collateral Manager notifies the Trustee that a redemption is required in order to (1) enable the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) to provide a Passing Report
to the Rating Agency (to be determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the application of proceeds pursuant to this paragraph) and/or (2) cause S&P to provide written confirmation (which may take the form of a press release or
other written communication) of its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes (an “Effective Date-Related Redemption”). 
 For
each Effective Date-Related Redemption, on the first Payment Date following the Collection Period for which the notice thereof is effective (an “Effective Date-Related Redemption Date”), funds in the Collection Account and/or the
Payment Account shall be available to be applied in accordance with Section 11.1(a)(i), to the extent of available Interest Proceeds, and in accordance with Section 11.1(a)(ii), to the extent of
available Principal Proceeds (an “Effective Date-Related Redemption Amount”). 
 Notice of payments pursuant to this
Section 9.6 shall be given by the Issuer or, upon an Issuer Order, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, not less than in the case of a Special Redemption or Effective Date-Related Redemption, three
Business Days prior to the applicable Special Redemption Date or Effective Date-Related Redemption Date by facsimile, email transmission or first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder of Secured Notes to receive proceeds of a Special
Redemption or to be redeemed in connection with an Effective Date-Related Redemption, as applicable, at such Holder’s facsimile number, email address or mailing address in the Register and to the Rating Agency. 

In connection with an Effective Date-Related Redemption, the principal of the Secured Notes shall be paid from Interest Proceeds (and, to the
extent necessary, Principal Proceeds) in accordance with the Note Payment Sequence pursuant to the Priority of Payments in an aggregate amount sufficient to (1) enable the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) to


  
 166 








 
provide a Passing Report to the Rating Agency (to be determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the application of proceeds pursuant to this paragraph) and/or (2) cause S&P
to provide written confirmation (which may take the form of a press release or other written communication) of its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes.

on deposit similar to Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulation Section 9.10(b). Such institution shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$200,000,000. All Cash deposited in the Accounts shall be invested only in Eligible
Investments or Collateral Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. To avoid the consolidation of the Assets of the Issuer with the general assets of the Bank under any circumstances, the Trustee shall comply, and shall cause the
Custodian to comply, with all law applicable to it as a national bank with trust powers holding segregated trust assets in a fiduciary capacity. 

Section 10.2 Collection Account. (a) In accordance with this Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement, the
Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish with the corporate trust department of the Custodian two segregated accounts, one of which shall be designated the “Interest Collection Subaccount” and one of which shall be
designated the “Principal Collection Subaccount” (which, together with the Interest Collection Subaccount, will comprise the “Collection Account”), each held in the name of “ABPCI Direct Lending Fund CLO VI
Ltd” subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and each of which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. The Trustee
shall from time to time deposit into the Interest Collection Subaccount, in addition to the deposits required pursuant to Section 10.6(b), immediately upon receipt thereof or upon transfer from the Closing Expense Account
or the Payment Account, all applicable Interest Proceeds (unless simultaneously reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations in accordance with Article XII). The Trustee shall deposit immediately upon receipt thereof or upon transfer from
the Closing Expense Account or the Revolver Funding Account all other amounts remitted to the Collection Account into the Principal Collection Subaccount, including in addition to the deposits required pursuant to
Section 10.6(b), (i) any funds designated as Principal Proceeds by the Collateral Manager in accordance with this Indenture and (ii) all other Principal Proceeds (unless simultaneously reinvested in additional
Collateral Obligations in accordance with Article XII or in Eligible Investments). Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds shall only be deposited in the Collection Account. 

  
 167 








 (b) The Trustee, within one Business Day after receipt of any distribution or other proceeds in
respect of the Assets which are not Cash, shall so notify the Issuer and the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, within five Business Days after receipt of such notice from the
Trustee (or as soon as practicable thereafter), sell such distribution or other proceeds for Cash in an arm’s length transaction and deposit the proceeds thereof in the applicable Collection Account; provided that the Issuer
(i) need not sell such distributions or other proceeds if it delivers an Issuer Order or an Officer’s certificate to the Trustee certifying that such distributions or other proceeds constitute Collateral Obligations, Eligible Investments,
Defaulted Obligations or Equity Securities or (ii) may otherwise retain such distribution or other proceeds for up to two years from the date of receipt thereof if it delivers an Officer’s certificate to the Trustee certifying that
(x) it will sell such distribution within such two-year period and (y) retaining such distribution is not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. 

(c) At any time when reinvestment is permitted pursuant to Article XII, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer
Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, withdraw funds on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount representing Principal Proceeds (together with Interest Proceeds but only to the extent used to
pay for accrued interest on an additional Collateral Obligation) and reinvest such funds in additional Collateral Obligations or exercise a warrant held in the Assets, in each case in accordance with the requirements of Article XII and
such Issuer Order. At any time as of which no funds are on deposit in the Revolver Funding Account, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall,
withdraw funds on deposit in the corresponding Principal Collection Subaccount representing Principal Proceeds and deposit such funds in the Revolver Funding Account to meet funding requirements on Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations or
Revolving Collateral Obligations. 
 (d) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon
receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, pay from amounts on deposit in the applicable Collection Account on any Business Day during any Interest Accrual Period (i) any amount required to exercise a warrant or right to acquire securities
held in the Assets in accordance with the requirements of Article XII and such Issuer Order and (ii) from Interest Proceeds only, any Administrative Expenses (such payments to be counted against the Administrative Expense Cap for the
applicable period and to be subject to the order of priority as stated in the definition of Administrative Expenses); provided that the aggregate Administrative Expenses paid pursuant to this
Section 10.2(d) during any Collection Period shall not exceed the Administrative Expense Cap for the related Payment Date; provided, further, that the Trustee shall be entitled (but not required) without
liability on its part, to refrain from making any such payment of an Administrative Expense pursuant to this Section 10.2 on any day other than a Payment Date if, in its reasonable determination, the payment of such amount
is likely to leave insufficient funds available to pay in full each of the items described in Section 11.1(a)(i)(A) as reasonably anticipated to be or become due and payable on the next Payment Date, taking into account the
Administrative Expense Cap. 

  
 168 








 (e) The Trustee shall transfer to the Payment Account from the corresponding Collection Account
for application pursuant to Section 11.1(a), on the Business Day immediately preceding each Payment Date, the amount set forth to be so transferred in the Distribution Report for such Payment Date. 

(f) In connection with a Refinancing in part by Class of one or more Classes of Secured Notes, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the
Issuer may direct the Trustee to apply Partial Refinancing Interest Proceeds from the Interest Collection Subaccounts on the date of a Refinancing of one or more Classes of Secured Notes to the payment of the Redemption Price(s) of the Class or
Classes of Secured Notes subject to Refinancing without regard to the Priority of Payments; provided that Partial Refinancing Interest Proceeds may not be used for the payment of such Redemption Price(s) unless there shall be sufficient
Interest Proceeds in the Interest Collection Subaccounts on such date to pay all amounts senior to the refinanced Class or Classes of Secured Notes on the next Payment Date, which shall be determined on a pro forma basis. 

Section 10.3 Transaction Accounts. 

(a) Payment Account. In accordance with this Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the
Closing Date, establish with the corporate trust department of the Custodian, a segregated non-interest bearing account, which shall be subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, designated as the “Payment Account”, which account shall be held in the name of “ABPCI Direct Lending Fund CLO VI Ltd” and which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the
Securities Account Control Agreement. Except as provided in Section 11.1(a), the only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be to pay
amounts due and payable on the Notes in accordance with their terms and the provisions of this Indenture and, upon Issuer Order, to pay Administrative Expenses, Collateral Management Fees and other amounts specified herein, each in accordance with
the Priority of Payments. The Co-Issuers shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Payment Account other than in accordance with this Indenture and the Securities Account Control
Agreement. Amounts in the Payment Account shall remain uninvested. 
 (b) Custodial Account. In accordance with this Indenture and the
Securities Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish with the corporate trust department of the Custodian a non-interest bearing account, which shall be subject to the

Ltd”, and which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. All Collateral Obligations shall be credited to the Custodial Account. The only permitted withdrawals from the Custodial Account
shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee agrees to give the Co-Issuers immediate notice if (to the actual knowledge of a Trust Officer of the Trustee) the Custodial
Account or any assets or securities on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Custodial Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The
Co-Issuers shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Custodial Account other than in accordance with this Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement. Cash amounts credited
to the Custodial Account shall remain uninvested, and shall be transferred to the Collection Account upon receipt thereof. 

  
 169 








 (c) Ramp-Up Account. In accordance with this
Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish with the corporate trust department of the Custodian a single, segregated non-interest bearing
account held in the name of “ABPCI Direct Lending Fund CLO VI Ltd” which account shall be subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall be designated as the “Ramp-Up Account”, and shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. The Issuer shall direct the Trustee to deposit the amount specified in
Section 3.1(a)(xii)(B) into the Ramp-Up Account on the Closing Date. In connection with any acquisition of an additional Collateral Obligation, the Trustee shall apply amounts held in the Ramp-Up Account as provided by Section 7.18(a). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (and excluding any proceeds that shall be used to settle binding commitments entered into prior to that date), the
Trustee shall deposit any remaining amounts in the Ramp-Up Account into the Collection Account as Principal Proceeds. On the first Determination Date after the Effective Date (and excluding any proceeds that
will be used to settle binding commitments entered into prior to that date) on which no Rating Confirmation Failure has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall deposit any amounts remaining in the
Ramp-Up Account into the Collection Account as Principal Proceeds and the Ramp-Up Account shall be closed. Any income earned on amounts deposited in the Ramp-Up Account shall be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest Proceeds. 
 (d) Closing
Expense Account. In accordance with this Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish with the corporate trust department of the Custodian a single, segregated non-interest bearing account held in the name of “ABPCI Direct Lending Fund CLO VI Ltd” which account shall be subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the
Secured Parties and shall be designated as the “Closing Expense Account”, and shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. The Issuer shall direct the Trustee to deposit in the
Closing Expense Account on the Closing Date, the amount specified in Section 3.1(a)(xii)(C). On any Business Day from the Closing Date to and including the Determination Date relating to the third Payment Date following the Closing Date, the
Trustee shall apply funds from the Closing Expense Account, as directed by the Collateral Manager, to pay (x) expenses of the Co-Issuers incurred in connection with the establishment of the Co-Issuers and fees and expenses incurred in connection with the structuring and consummation of the Offered Notes and the issuance of the Notes and (y) at the Collateral Manager’s discretion,
Administrative Expenses in the order of priority contained in the definition thereof (subject to the Administrative Expense Cap). On the third Payment Date following the Closing Date, all funds in the Closing Expense Account (after deducting any
expenses paid or payable on such Payment Date) shall be deposited in the Collection Account as Principal Proceeds. Any income earned on amounts deposited in the Closing Expense Account shall be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest
Proceeds as it is received. 

  
 170 








 (e) Contribution Account. In accordance with this Indenture and the Securities Account
Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish with the corporate trust department of the Custodian a single segregated non-interest bearing account, which shall be subject to
the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which shall be designated as the “Contribution Account”, which account shall held in the name of “ABPCI Direct Lending Fund CLO VI
Ltd”, and which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. At any time during or after the Reinvestment Period, any Holder or beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note may, upon written
notice to the Trustee and the Collateral Manager, (i) make a contribution of Cash, Eligible Investments or Collateral Obligations to the Issuer or (ii) solely in the case of Holders of Certificated Notes, by notice given in accordance with
this Indenture at least 10 Business Days prior to a Payment Date, designate any portion of Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds that would otherwise be distributed on its Subordinated Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments as a
contribution to the Issuer (each, a “Contribution” and each such Holder, a “Contributor”); provided that each Contribution shall be no less than $500,000; provided, further that the total number shall
not in the aggregate exceed three Contributions (except with the consent of a Majority of the Controlling Class). The Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, may accept or reject any Contribution in its sole discretion and shall notify the
Trustee in writing of any such acceptance. Each accepted Contribution will be deposited into the Contribution Account. If a Contribution is accepted, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer will apply such Contribution to a Permitted Use as
directed by the Contributor at the time such Contribution is made (or, if no direction is given by the Contributor, at the direction of the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion). No Contribution or portion thereof shall be returned to the
Contributor at any time (other than returns on such Subordinated Notes by operation of the Priority of Payments) and no shares in the Issuer shall be issued or other rights against the Issuer shall be credited in favor of the Contributor as a result
of such Contribution. For administrative convenience, any Contributions or transfers of Cash, Eligible Investments or Collateral Obligations made through one or more affiliates of the Collateral Manager may instead be made directly into the Issuer,
bypassing such affiliate. Amounts in the Contribution Account shall be invested at the direction of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) in Eligible Investments with stated maturities no later than the Business Day prior to
the next Payment Date pursuant to Section 10.6. Any income earned on amounts deposited in the Contribution Account will be deposited in the Interest Collection Subaccount as Interest Proceeds. Any amounts deposited into the
Contribution Account pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Contribution” will be deemed for all purposes as having been paid to the Contributor pursuant to the Priority of Payments and subsequently contributed to the Issuer in
Cash. 
 Section 10.4 The Revolver Funding Account. Upon the acquisition of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or
Revolving Collateral Obligation, funds in an amount equal to the undrawn portion of such obligation shall be withdrawn from the Principal Collection Subaccount and deposited by the Trustee in a single, segregated account established with the
corporate trust department of the Custodian and held in the name of “ABPCI Direct Lending Fund CLO VI Ltd” which account shall be subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
(the “Revolver Funding Account”), and shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. Upon initial acquisition of any such obligations, funds deposited in the Revolver Funding
Account in respect of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or Revolving Collateral Obligation shall be treated as part of the acquisition price therefor. Amounts on deposit in the Revolver Funding Account shall be invested in overnight funds
that are Eligible Investments selected by the Collateral Manager pursuant to Section 10.6 and earnings from all such investments shall be deposited in the applicable Interest Collection Subaccount as Interest Proceeds.


  
 171 








 The Issuer shall at all times maintain sufficient funds on deposit in the Revolver Funding
Account such that the sum of the amount of funds on deposit in the Revolver Funding Account shall be equal to or greater than the sum of the unfunded funding obligations under all Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations and Revolving Collateral
Obligations then included in the Assets. Funds shall be deposited in the Revolver Funding Account upon the acquisition of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or Revolving Collateral Obligation. Upon the receipt by the Issuer of any Principal
Proceeds with respect to a Revolving Collateral Obligation, such Principal Proceeds shall be deposited in the Revolver Funding Account as directed by the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer. In the event of any shortfall in the Revolver
Funding Account, the Collateral Manager (on behalf of the Issuer) may direct the Trustee to, and the Trustee thereafter shall, transfer funds in an amount equal to such shortfall from the corresponding Principal Collection Subaccount to the
applicable Revolver Funding Account. 
 Fundings of Revolving Collateral Obligations and Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations shall be
made using, first, amounts on deposit in the Revolver Funding Account and, second, amounts on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount (other than amounts reserved to purchase Collateral Obligations that have not yet settled).

 Any funds in the Revolver Funding Account (other than earnings from Eligible Investments therein) shall be available solely to cover any
drawdowns on the Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations and Revolving Collateral Obligations; provided that any excess of (A) the amounts on deposit in the Revolver Funding Account over (B) the sum of the unfunded funding
obligations under all Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations and Revolving Collateral Obligations that are included in the Assets (including any such excess that occurs upon (i) the sale or maturity of a Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation
or Revolving Collateral Obligation or (ii) the occurrence of an event of default with respect to any such Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or Revolving Collateral Obligation or any other event or circumstance that results in the
irrevocable reduction of the undrawn commitments under such Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or Revolving Collateral Obligation) may be transferred by the Trustee (at the written direction of the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer,
which may be provided via e-mail or other electronic means acceptable to the Trustee) from time to time as Principal Proceeds to the Principal Collection Subaccount. The Trustee shall not be responsible at any
time for determining whether the funds in the Revolver Funding Account are insufficient. 
 Section 10.5 Reports to Rating Agency
and Additional Recipients. In addition to the information and reports specifically required to be provided to the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Issuer shall
provide the Collateral Manager and the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) with all information or reports delivered to the Trustee hereunder (with the exception of any Accountants’ Certificates) and the
Trustee shall provide all such information to the Initial Purchaser upon the Initial Purchaser’s written request, and, subject to Section 14.3(c), such additional information (with the exception of any
Accountants’ Certificates) as the Rating Agency (so long as it is rating a Class of Secured Notes) may from time to time reasonably request (including notification to the Rating Agency of any modification of any loan document relating to


  
 172 








 
a DIP Collateral Obligation or any release of collateral thereunder not permitted by such loan documentation and notification to the Rating Agency of any Specified Event of which the Issuer has
knowledge, which notice to the Rating Agency shall include a copy of any such amendment related to a Specified Event and a brief summary of its purposes, as applicable). Within 10 Business Days after the Effective Date, together with each
Monthly Report and on each Payment Date, the Issuer shall provide to the Rating Agency, via e-mail in accordance with Section 14.3(a), a Microsoft Excel file of the Excel Default
Model Input File and, with respect to each Collateral Obligation, the name of each Obligor thereon, the CUSIP number thereof (if applicable) and whether it is a Senior Secured Loan, a Second Lien Loan, a Qualified First Lien Loan, a First
Lien/Last Out Loan, a Senior Secured Loan with a Senior Revolver Facility or a Cov-Lite Loan. 

Section 10.6 Reinvestment of Funds in Accounts; Reports by Trustee. (a) By Issuer Order (which may be in the form of standing
instructions), the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall at all times direct the Trustee to, and, upon receipt of such Issuer Order, the Trustee shall, invest all funds on deposit in the
Ramp-Up Account, the Closing Expense Account, the Collection Account, the Contribution Account and the Revolver Funding Account, as so directed in Eligible Investments having stated maturities no later than
the Business Day preceding the next Payment Date (or such shorter maturities expressly provided herein). If prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer shall not have given any such investment directions, the Trustee shall seek
instructions from the Collateral Manager within three Business Days after transfer of any funds to such accounts. If the Trustee does not thereafter receive written instructions from the Collateral Manager within five Business Days after transfer of
such funds to such accounts, it shall invest and reinvest the funds held in such accounts, as fully as practicable, in the Standby Directed Investment or, if the Standby Directed Investment is unavailable, such funds shall remain uninvested. If
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer shall not have given such investment directions to the Trustee for three consecutive days, the Trustee shall invest and reinvest such Monies as fully as practicable in the Standby Directed
Investment unless and until contrary investment instructions as provided in the preceding sentence are received or the Trustee receives a written instruction from the Issuer, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer, changing the Standby
Directed Investment. Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise herein, all interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited in the applicable Interest Collection Subaccount, any gain realized from such investments shall be
credited to the applicable Principal Collection Subaccount upon receipt, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the applicable Principal Collection Subaccount. The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of
any insufficiency of such accounts which results from any loss relating to any such investment, provided that nothing herein shall relieve the Bank of (i) its obligations or liabilities under any security or obligation issued by the Bank
or any Affiliate thereof or (ii) liability for any loss resulting from gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud on the part of the Bank or any Affiliate thereof. Except as expressly provided herein, the Trustee shall not otherwise be under
any duty to invest (or pay interest on) amounts held hereunder from time to time. 
 (b) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate
notice if a Trust Officer has actual knowledge that any Account or any funds on deposit in any Account, or otherwise to the credit of an Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.


  
 173 








 (c) The Trustee shall supply, in a timely fashion, to the
Co-Issuers (and the Issuer shall supply to the Rating Agency) and the Collateral Manager any information regularly maintained by the Trustee that the Co-Issuers, the
Rating Agency or the Collateral Manager may from time to time reasonably request with respect to the Assets, the Accounts and the other Assets and provide any other requested information reasonably available to the Trustee by reason of its acting as
Trustee hereunder and required to be provided by Section 10.7 or to permit the Collateral Manager to perform its obligations under the Collateral Management Agreement or the Issuer’s obligations hereunder that
have been delegated to the Collateral Manager. The Trustee shall promptly forward to the Collateral Manager copies of notices and other writings received by it from the Obligor of any Collateral Obligation or from any Clearing Agency with respect to
any Collateral Obligation which notices or writings advise the holders of such Collateral Obligation of any rights that the holders might have with respect thereto (including, without limitation, requests to vote with respect to amendments or
waivers and notices of prepayments and redemptions) as well as all periodic financial reports received from such Obligor and Clearing Agencies with respect to such Obligor.

 Section 10.9 Reports by Independent Accountants. (a) As of the Closing Date, the
Issuer shall appoint one or more firms of Independent certified public accountants of recognized international reputation for purposes of reviewing and delivering the reports or certificates of such accountants required by this Indenture, which may
be the firm of Independent certified public accountants that performs accounting services for the Issuer or the Collateral Manager. The Issuer may remove any firm of Independent certified public accountants at any time without the consent of any
Holder of Notes. Upon any resignation by such firm or removal of such firm by the Issuer, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall promptly appoint by Issuer Order delivered to the Trustee and the Rating Agency a
successor thereto that shall also be a firm of Independent certified public accountants of recognized international reputation, which may be a firm of Independent certified public accountants that performs accounting services for the Issuer or the

action, if such action or omission is in accordance with this Section 10.9, it being understood and agreed that the Trustee and/or the Collateral Administrator, as the case may be, shall deliver such letter of agreement in
conclusive reliance on the foregoing direction of the Issuer, and neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Administrator shall make any inquiry or investigation as to, or shall have any obligation in respect of, the validity or correctness of such

 182 








 
respect of the relevant Note in order to determine any “original issue discount” in respect thereof, the Trustee shall request that the firm of Independent certified public accountants
appointed by the Issuer calculate such yield to maturity. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to calculate the yield to maturity nor to verify the accuracy of such Independent certified public accountants’ calculation. If the firm of

such account as it deems necessary or appropriate for convenience of administration. 
 Section 10.11
Section 3(c)(7) Procedures. For so long as any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall do the following: 
 (a)
Notification. Each Monthly Report sent or caused to be sent by the Issuer to the Holders shall include a notice to the following effect: 

“The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), requires that all holders of the outstanding
securities of the Co-Issuers that are U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) be “Qualified Purchasers” (“Qualified Purchasers”) as defined in Section 2(a)(51)(A) of the 1940
Act and related rules (or corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities (other than trusts), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser). Under the rules, each Co-Issuer must have a “reasonable belief” that all holders of its outstanding securities that are “U.S. persons” (as defined in Regulation S), including transferees, are Qualified Purchasers (or
corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities (other than trusts), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser). Consequently, all sales and resales of the Notes in the United
States or to “U.S. persons” (as defined in Regulation S) must be made solely to purchasers that are Qualified Purchasers (or corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities (other than trusts), each shareholder,
partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser). Each purchaser of a Secured Note in the United States who is a “U.S. person” (as defined in Regulation S) (such Note a “Restricted Secured Note”)
will be deemed (or 

  
 183 








 
required, as the case may be) to represent at the time of purchase that: (i) the purchaser is a Qualified Purchaser (or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity
(other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) who is either (x) an institutional accredited investor (“IAI”) within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or
(7) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or (y) a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“QIB”); (ii) the purchaser is acting for its
own account or the account of another Qualified Purchaser and QIB/IAI (as applicable); (iii) the purchaser is not formed for the purpose of investing in the Co-Issuers; (iv) the purchaser, and each
account for which it is purchasing, will hold and transfer at least the minimum denominations of the Notes specified in the Indenture; (v) the purchaser understands that the Issuer may receive a list of participants holding positions in
securities from one or more book-entry depositories; and (vi) the purchaser will provide written notice of the foregoing, and of any applicable restrictions on transfer, to any subsequent transferees. The Restricted Secured Notes may only be
transferred to another Qualified Purchaser (or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) and QIB/IAI (as
applicable) and all subsequent transferees are deemed to have made representations (i) through (vi) above. Each purchaser of a Subordinated Note will be required to represent at the time of purchase that: (a) the purchaser is a Qualified
Purchaser (or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) who is either (x) an IAI under the Securities
Act or (y) a QIB; (b) the purchaser is acting for its own account or the account of another Qualified Purchaser and QIB/IAI (as applicable); (c) the purchaser is not formed for the purpose of investing in the Issuer; (d) the
purchaser, and each account for which it is purchasing, will hold and transfer at least the minimum denominations of the Notes specified in the Indenture; (e) the purchaser understands that the Issuer may receive a list of participants holding
positions in securities from one or more book-entry depositories; and (f) the purchaser will provide written notice of the foregoing, and of any applicable restrictions on transfer, to any subsequent transferees. The Subordinated Notes may only
be transferred to another Qualified Purchaser (or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) and QIB/IAI (as
applicable) and all subsequent transferees are deemed to have made representations (a) through (f) above.” 
 “The Issuer
directs that the recipient of this notice, and any recipient of a copy of this notice, provide a copy to any Person having an interest in this Note as indicated on the books of DTC or on the books of a participant in DTC or on the books of an
indirect participant for which such participant in DTC acts as agent.” 
 “The Indenture provides that if, notwithstanding the
restrictions on transfer contained therein, the Co-Issuers determine that any holder of, or beneficial owner of an interest in a Restricted Secured Note or a Subordinated Note is a “U.S. person” (as
defined in Regulation S) who is determined not to have been a Qualified Purchaser (or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a
Qualified Purchaser) at the time of acquisition of such Restricted Secured Note or Subordinated Note, as applicable, or beneficial interest therein, the Issuer may require, by notice to such Holder or beneficial owner, that such Holder or beneficial
owner sell all of its right, title and interest to such Restricted Secured Note or a Subordinated Note, as applicable, 

  
 184 








 
(or any interest therein) to a Person that is either (x) not a “U.S. person” (as defined in Regulation S) with respect to the Secured Notes only or (y) a Qualified Purchaser
(or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (other than a trust), each shareholder, partner, member or other equity owner of which is a Qualified Purchaser) who is either an IAI or a QIB (as applicable), with such sale
to be effected within 30 days after notice of such sale requirement is given. If such holder or beneficial owner fails to effect the transfer required within such 30-day period, (i) the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager acting for the Issuer, without further notice so such holder, shall and is hereby irrevocably authorized by such holder or beneficial owner, to cause its Restricted Secured Note or Subordinated Note, as applicable, or beneficial
interest therein to be transferred in a commercially reasonable sale (conducted by the Collateral Manager in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York as applied to securities that are sold on a recognized market or
that may decline speedily in value) to a Person that certifies to the Trustee, the Co-Issuers and the Collateral Manager, in connection with such transfer, that such Person meets the qualifications set forth
in clauses (x) and (y) above and (ii) pending such transfer, no further payments will be made in respect of such Restricted Secured Note or Subordinated Note, as applicable, or beneficial interest therein held by such holder or beneficial
owner.” 
 (b) DTC Actions. In connection with the Global Secured Notes, the Issuer shall, or shall cause its agent to request of
DTC, and cooperate with DTC to ensure, that (i) DTC’s security description and delivery order include the marker “3c7” and that DTC’s reference directory contains an accurate description of the restrictions on the holding
and transfer of the Notes due to the Issuer’s reliance on the exemption to registration provided by Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, (ii) DTC send to its participants in connection with the initial offering of the Notes,
a notice that the Issuer is relying on Section 3(c)(7) and (iii) DTC’s reference directory include each class of Notes (and the applicable CUSIP numbers for the Notes) in the listing of 3(c)(7) issues together with an attached
description of the limitations as to the distribution, purchase, sale and holding of the Notes. 
 In addition to the obligations of the
Registrar set forth in Section 2.5, the Issuer will from time to time (upon the request of the Trustee) make a request to DTC to deliver to the Issuer a list of all DTC participants holding an interest in the Global Secured
Notes. 
 (c) Bloomberg Screens, Etc. The Issuer shall, or shall cause its agent to, cause the Bloomberg screen or screens containing
information about the Secured Notes to include the following language: (i) the bottom of “Security Description” page describing the Notes shall state: “144A/3c7” (ii) the “Security Description” page shall have an
indicator stating “PRVT PLACEMENT,” and (iii) the “Comments” page shall state that “These Securities are being offered in the United States to Persons who are both (x) qualified institutional buyers (as defined in
Rule 144A under the Securities Act) and (y) qualified purchasers (as defined under Section 3(c)(7) under the Investment Company Act of 1940).” The Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any other third-party vendor
screens containing information about the Notes to include substantially similar language to clauses (i) through (iii) above. 
 (d)
CUSIP numbers. The Issuer shall, or shall cause its agent to, (i) ensure that all CUSIP numbers identifying the Rule 144A Global Secured Notes shall have a “fixed field” attached thereto that contains “3c7” and
“144A” indicators and (ii) take steps to cause the Initial Purchaser to require that all “confirms” of trades of such Notes contain CUSIP numbers with such “fixed field” identifiers.

all payments pursuant to this clause (G); 
 (H) to the payment of any Deferred Interest on the Class C Notes (only to
the extent the Class C Notes are the Controlling Class at such time); 
 (I) with respect to any Payment Date
following the Effective Date, if, after the application of Interest Proceeds pursuant to clause (L) of Section 11.1(a)(1), S&P has not yet confirmed its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes and the Issuer has not provided a Passing
Report to the Rating Agency, to make payments in accordance with the Note Payment Sequence on such Payment Date in an amount sufficient to (1) enable the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) to provide a Passing Report
(to be determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the application of proceeds pursuant to this clause (I)) to the Rating Agency and/or (2) cause S&P to provide written confirmation (which may take the form of a press release or
other written communication) of its Initial Ratings of the Secured Notes; 
 (J) (1) in connection with a redemption in
whole of the Secured Notes, to make payments in accordance with the Note Payment Sequence, and (2) to make payments in the amount of the Special Redemption Amount, if any, at the election of the Collateral Manager, in accordance with the Note

(N) after the Reinvestment Period, to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes. 

(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing Sections 11.1(a)(i) and 11.1(a)(ii), (x) if

 ARTICLE XII 

SALE OF COLLATERAL OBLIGATIONS; 

ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL OBLIGATIONS 

Section 12.1 Sales of Collateral Obligations. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions specified in
Section 12.4, the Collateral Manager may, pursuant to an Issuer Order delivered by an Authorized Officer of the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer (except as otherwise specified in this
Section 12.1), direct the Trustee to sell and the Trustee shall sell on behalf of the Issuer in the manner directed by the Collateral Manager any Collateral Obligation, Equity Security or Unsaleable Asset if, as certified
by the Collateral Manager (which may be satisfied by delivery of an Issuer Order), such sale meets the requirements of any one of paragraphs (a) through (i) of this Section 12.1 (subject in each case to any
applicable requirement of disposition under Section 12.1(d)). 

  
 191 








 (a) Credit Risk Obligations. The Collateral Manager may direct the Trustee to sell any
Credit Risk Obligation at any time without restriction. 
 (b) Credit Improved Obligations. The Collateral Manager may direct the
Trustee to sell any Credit Improved Obligation at any time without restriction. 
 (c) Defaulted Obligations. The Collateral Manager
may direct the Trustee to sell any Defaulted Obligation at any time without restriction. 
 (d) Equity Securities. The Collateral
Manager may direct the Trustee to sell any Equity Security at any time without restriction and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the sale of any Equity Security, regardless of price and subject to any transfer restrictions
applicable to such Equity Security: 
 (i) within three years after receipt, if such Equity Security is (A) received
upon the conversion of a Defaulted Obligation, or (B) received in an exchange initiated by the Obligor to avoid bankruptcy; and 

(ii) within 45 days after receipt if such Equity Security constitutes Margin Stock, unless such sale is prohibited by
applicable law or restrictions governing such Equity Security, in which case such Equity Security shall be sold as soon as such sale is permitted by applicable law or in compliance with such restrictions. 

(e) Optional Redemption and Tax Redemption. Unless Refinancing Proceeds are being used to redeem the Secured Notes in whole or in part,
after the Applicable Issuer has notified the Trustee of an Optional Redemption of the Notes in accordance with Section 9.2 or a Majority of an Affected Class or a Majority of the Subordinated Notes has directed (by a
written direction delivered to the Trustee) a Tax Redemption in accordance with Section 9.3, the Collateral Manager shall direct the Trustee to sell (which sale or sales may be through participation or other
arrangement) all or a portion of the Collateral Obligations if the requirements of Article IX (including the certification requirements of Section 9.4(f)(ii), if applicable) are satisfied. If any such sale
is made through participations, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such participations to be converted to assignments within six months after the sale. 

(f) Discretionary Sales. The Collateral Manager may direct the Trustee to sell any Collateral Obligation at any time other than during a
Restricted Trading Period if, (1) after giving effect to such sale, the Investment Criteria Adjusted Balance of all Collateral Obligations sold as described in this Section 12.1(f) during the preceding period of 12
calendar months (or, for the first 12 calendar months after the Closing Date, during the period commencing on the Closing Date) is not greater than 25% of Total Capitalization as of the first day of such 12 calendar month period (or as of the
Closing Date, as the case may be); and (2) either: 
 (i) solely during the Reinvestment Period, the Collateral Manager
reasonably believes prior to such sale that it will be able to enter into binding commitments to reinvest all or a portion of the proceeds of such sale, in compliance with the Investment Criteria, in one or more additional Collateral Obligations
with an Investment Criteria Adjusted Balance at least equal to the Investment Criteria Adjusted Balance of such Collateral Obligation within 30 days after such sale; or 

  
 192 








 (ii) the Principal Collateralization Amount (excluding the Collateral Obligation
being sold, but including, without duplication, the anticipated net proceeds of such sale) will be greater than or equal to the Reinvestment Target Par Balance. 

(g) Unsaleable Assets. Notwithstanding the other requirements set forth in this Indenture, on any Business Day after the Reinvestment
Period, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Manager, in its sole discretion, may conduct an auction on behalf of the Issuer of Unsaleable Assets in accordance with the procedures described in this
Section 12.1(g). Promptly after receipt of written notice from the Collateral Manager of such auction, the Trustee shall provide notice (in such form as is prepared by the Collateral Manager) to the Holders (and, for so
long as any Secured Notes are Outstanding, the Rating Agency) of an auction, setting forth in reasonable detail a description of each Unsaleable Asset and the following auction procedures: (i) any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes may submit
a written bid within 10 Business Days after the date of such notice to purchase one or more Unsaleable Assets no later than the date specified in the auction notice (which shall be at least 15 Business Days after the date of such notice); (ii) each
bid must include an offer to purchase such Unsaleable Assets for a specified amount of cash on a proposed settlement date no later than 20 Business Days after the date of the auction notice; (iii) if no Holder or beneficial owner of Notes
submits such a bid within the time period specified under clause (i) above, unless the Collateral Manager determines that delivery in-kind is not legally or commercially practicable and provides written
notice thereof to the Trustee, the Trustee shall provide notice thereof to each Holder and offer to deliver (at such Holder’s expense) a pro rata portion (as determined by the Collateral Manager) of each unsold Unsaleable Asset to the Holders
or beneficial owners of the most senior Class that provide delivery instructions to the Trustee on or before the date specified in such notice, subject to minimum denominations; provided that, to the extent that minimum denominations do
not permit a pro rata distribution, the Trustee shall distribute the Unsaleable Assets on a pro rata basis to the extent possible as directed by the Collateral Manager in writing and the Collateral Manager shall select by lottery the Holder or
beneficial owner to whom the remaining amount will be delivered and deliver written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver such interests as specified in such written direction; and (iv) if no such Holder or beneficial
owner provides delivery instructions to the Trustee, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Collateral Manager and offer to deliver (at the cost of the Collateral Manager) the Unsaleable Asset to the Collateral Manager or its designee. If the
Collateral Manager declines such offer, the Trustee shall take such action as directed by the Collateral Manager (on behalf of the Issuer) in writing to dispose of the Unsaleable Asset, which may be by donation to a charity, abandonment or other
means. 
 (h) Stated Maturity. Notwithstanding the restrictions of Section 12.1(a) through (g), the
Collateral Manager (on behalf of the Issuer) shall, no earlier than one month prior to the Determination Date for the Stated Maturity and no later than the Determination Date for the Stated Maturity, arrange for and direct the Trustee to sell (and
the Trustee shall sell in the manner specified) any Collateral Obligations remaining and distribute any proceeds thereof to the Issuer for application in accordance with the Priority of Payments; provided that such sale does not materially
and adversely affect the Holders of the Secured Notes. 

  
 193 








 Section 12.2 Acquisition of Additional Collateral Obligations. On any date during the
Reinvestment Period, the Collateral Manager may, pursuant to an Issuer Order delivered by an Authorized Officer of the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer subject to the other requirements in this Indenture, direct the Trustee to
invest Principal Proceeds, proceeds of Additional Notes issued pursuant to Section 2.13 and 3.2, amounts on deposit in the Ramp-Up Account, Principal Financed Accrued Interest
and any Contributions received by the Issuer constituting Principal Proceeds in additional Collateral Obligations, and the Trustee shall invest such Principal Proceeds and other amounts in accordance with such direction. After the Reinvestment
Period, the Collateral Manager shall not direct the Trustee to invest any amounts on behalf of the Issuer; provided that in accordance with Section 12.2(d), Cash on deposit in any Account (other than the Payment
Account) may be invested in Eligible Investments following the Reinvestment Period. 
 (a) Investment Criteria. No obligation may be
acquired by the Issuer unless each of the following conditions (the “Investment Criteria”) is satisfied as of the date the Collateral Manager commits on behalf of the Issuer to make such acquisition, in each case as determined by
the Collateral Manager after giving effect to such acquisition and all other sales or acquisitions previously or simultaneously committed to: 

(i) such obligation is a Collateral Obligation; 

(ii) on and after the Effective Date (A) in the case of an additional Collateral Obligation acquired with the proceeds
from the sale of a Credit Risk Obligation or a Defaulted Obligation, either (1) the Aggregate Principal Balance of all additional Collateral Obligations acquired with the proceeds from such sale plus, without duplication, the amount of
any cash Contributions made to the Issuer in connection therewith will at least equal the Sale Proceeds from such sale, (2) the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (including, without duplication, the amount of any cash
Contributions made to the Issuer in connection therewith) will be maintained or increased (when compared to the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations immediately prior to such sale) or (3) the Principal Collateralization
Amount (excluding the Collateral Obligation being sold but including, without duplication, the Collateral Obligation being acquired and the anticipated cash proceeds, if any, of such sale that are not applied to the acquisition of such additional
Collateral Obligation plus, without duplication, the amount of any cash Contributions made to the Issuer in connection therewith) will be greater than the Reinvestment Target Par Balance and (B) in the case of any other acquisition of
additional Collateral Obligations acquired with the proceeds from the sale of a Collateral Obligation, either (1) the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations plus, without duplication, the amount of any cash
Contributions made to the Issuer in connection therewith will be maintained or increased (when compared to the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations immediately prior to such sale) or (2) the Principal Collateralization
Amount (excluding the Collateral Obligation being sold but including, without duplication, the Collateral Obligation being acquired and the anticipated cash proceeds, if any, of such sale that are not applied to the acquisition of such additional
Collateral Obligation plus, without duplication, the amount of any cash Contributions made to the Issuer in connection therewith) will be greater than the Reinvestment Target Par Balance. Only Contributions designated as Principal Proceeds in
accordance with this Indenture (which Contributions may not be reclassified as Interest Proceeds thereafter) may be used pursuant to this clause (ii); 

  
 194 








 (iii) the Overcollateralization Ratio Test with respect to the Class A Notes
will be satisfied and each Interest Coverage Test will be satisfied (or if not satisfied, improved); 
 (iv) either
(A) each requirement or test, as the case may be, of the Concentration Limitations (on and after the Effective Date) and the Collateral Quality Test (except, in the case of an additional Collateral Obligation acquired with the proceeds from the
sale of a Credit Risk Obligation or a Defaulted Obligation, the S&P CDO Monitor Test) will be satisfied or (B) if any such requirement or test was not satisfied immediately prior to such investment, such requirement or test will be
maintained or improved after giving effect to the investment; 
 (v) the date on which the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager
on its behalf) commits to acquire such Collateral Obligation occurs during the Reinvestment Period; 
 (vi) the EU
Origination Requirement will be satisfied with respect thereto; and 
 (vii) no EU Retention Deficiency would occur as a
result of, and immediately after giving effect to, any such acquisition. 
 (b) Trading Plan Period. For purposes of calculating
compliance with the Investment Criteria, at the election of the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion, any proposed investment (whether a single Collateral Obligation or a group of Collateral Obligations) identified by the Collateral Manager as
such at the time when compliance with the Investment Criteria is required to be calculated (a “Trading Plan”) may be evaluated after giving effect to all sales and reinvestments proposed to be entered into within the 10 Business
Days following the date of determination of such compliance (such period, the “Trading Plan Period”); provided that (1) no Trading Plan may result in the acquisition of Collateral Obligations having an Aggregate
Principal Balance that exceeds 5% of the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Collateral Obligations as of the first day of the Trading Plan Period, (2) no Trading Plan Period may include a Determination Date, (3) no more than one Trading
Plan may be in effect at any time during a Trading Plan Period, (4) the Collateral Manager may modify any Trading Plan during a Trading Plan Period if it determines that, but for the occurrence of an Intervening Event, the Investment Criteria
would have been satisfied by the original Trading Plan (provided that the Investment Criteria are satisfied by the modified Trading Plan), (5) if the Investment Criteria are not satisfied upon the expiry of the related Trading Plan Period, the
Investment Criteria shall not at any time thereafter be evaluated by giving effect to a Trading Plan and (6) no Trading Plan may result in the acquisition of a group of Collateral Obligations if the difference between the shortest Average Life
of any Collateral Obligation in such group and the longest Average Life of any Collateral Obligation in such group is greater than two years. The Collateral Manager shall provide prior written notice to the Rating Agency, the Trustee (and the
Trustee shall provide such notice to the holders of the Notes) and the Collateral Administrator of (i) any Trading Plan, which notice shall specify the proposed investments identified by the Collateral Manager for acquisition as part of such
Trading Plan and (ii) the occurrence of the event described in clause (5) above. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, no Trading Plan may be implemented by the Collateral Manager pursuant to this Indenture
if any previous Trading Plan failed to be successfully implemented during the related Trading Plan Period. 

  
 195 








 (c) Certification by Collateral Manager. Not later than the Subsequent Delivery Date for
any Collateral Obligation acquired in accordance with this Section 12.2, the Collateral Manager shall deliver by e-mail to the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator an executed
Officer’s certificate of the Collateral Manager certifying that such acquisition complies with this Section 12.2 and Section 12.4 or an Issuer Order. 

(d) Investment in Eligible Investments. Cash on deposit in any Account (other than the Payment Account) may be invested at any time in
Eligible Investments in accordance with Article X. 
 (e) End of Reinvestment Period. Not later than the Business Day
immediately preceding the end of the Reinvestment Period, the Collateral Manager shall deliver to the Trustee a schedule of Collateral Obligations acquired by the Issuer with respect to which acquisitions the trade date has occurred but the
settlement date has not yet occurred and is reasonably expected to occur after the end of the Reinvestment Period and shall certify to the Trustee that sufficient Principal Proceeds are available (including for this purpose, cash on deposit in the
Collection Account representing Principal Proceeds as well as any Principal Proceeds that will be received by the Issuer from the sale of Collateral Obligations for which the trade date has already occurred but the settlement date has not yet
occurred and/or Contributions received by the Issuer) to effect the settlement of such Collateral Obligations. Any such Collateral Obligations shall be treated as having been acquired prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period for purposes of the
Investment Criteria. To the extent such Collateral Obligations would be acquired using Principal Proceeds consisting of scheduled distributions of principal, only that portion of such Principal Proceeds that the Collateral Manager reasonably expects
will be received prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period shall be used to effect such acquisition. 
 (f) No Exercise of Warrants or
Acquisition of Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Issuer may not exercise any warrant or otherwise acquire securities (including pursuant to Section 10.2(d))
(other than the exercise of a warrant or other acquisition of securities “received in lieu of debt previously contracted” for purposes of the Volcker Rule in connection with an insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, debt restructuring or
workout of the issuer thereof). 
 Section 12.3 Optional Repurchase or Substitution of Collateral Obligations. 

(a) Optional Substitutions. 

(i) With respect to any Collateral Obligation as to which a Repurchase and Substitution Event has occurred, subject to the
limitations set forth in this Section 12.3, at any time the Transferor may (but shall not be obligated to) convey to Depositor, and Depositor may (but will not be obligated to) convey to the Issuer, in accordance with the
Master Transfer Agreement one or more Collateral Obligations in exchange for such Collateral Obligations. 

  
 196 








 (ii) Any substitution pursuant to this Section 12.3(a)
shall be initiated by delivery of written notice (a “Notice of Substitution”) by the Transferor to the Trustee, Depositor, the Issuer and the Collateral Manager that the Transferor intends to substitute a Collateral Obligation
pursuant to this Section 12.3(a) and shall be completed prior to the earliest of: (x) the expiration of 90 days after delivery of such notice; or (y) in the case of a Collateral Obligation which has become subject
to a Specified Amendment, the effective date set forth in such Specified Amendment. Each Notice of Substitution shall specify the Collateral Obligation to be substituted and the reasons for such substitution. 

(iii) The substitution of any Substitute Collateral Obligation shall be subject to the satisfaction of the Repurchase and
Substitution Qualification Conditions as of the date of substitution for each such Collateral Obligation (after giving effect to such substitution). 

(iv) Prior to any substitution of a Collateral Obligation, the Collateral Manager shall provide written notice thereof to the
Rating Agency. 
 (b) Optional Repurchases. Subject to the Repurchase and Substitution Limit, the Transferor shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to repurchase from Depositor, and Depositor will have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase from the Issuer, any Collateral Obligation that becomes subject to a Repurchase and Substitution Event at any time at a price
equal to such repurchased Collateral Obligation’s Market Value (which shall not be determined pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) of the definition thereof); provided that if such Market Value has not been obtained by the most
recent of (i) 90 days prior to such date of determination or (ii) the date of the most recently audited financial statements for the Obligor of such Collateral Obligation, then such Collateral Obligation may not be repurchased pursuant to this
Section 12.3(b) until such Market Value has been obtained in accordance with such time constraints. At the written direction of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer), the Trustee shall execute and
deliver such instruments, consents or other documents and perform all acts reasonably requested by the Transferor, by Depositor or by the Collateral Manager in order to effect the transfer and release of any of the Issuer’s interests in the
Collateral Obligations (together with the Assets) that are being repurchased and the release thereof from the lien of this Indenture. 
 (c)
Repurchase and Substitution Limit. At all times, (i) the sum of the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Substitute Collateral Obligations owned by the Issuer at any time since the Closing Date plus (ii) the Aggregate Principal
Balance of all Collateral Obligations that have been repurchased by the Transferor pursuant to its right of optional repurchase since the Closing Date and not subsequently applied by the Issuer to acquire a Substitute Collateral Obligation may not
exceed an amount equal to (A) 15% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance (inclusive of sales pursuant to clause (B)) and (B) with respect to Defaulted Obligations and Credit Risk Obligations that the Collateral Manager believes with the passage of
time would become Defaulted Obligations, 10% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance; provided that clause (ii) above shall not include (x) the Principal Balance related to any Collateral Obligation that is repurchased by the Transferor
in connection with a proposed Specified Amendment to such Collateral Obligation so long as (1) the Transferor certifies in writing to the Collateral Manager and the Trustee that such purchase is, in the commercially reasonable business judgment
of the Transferor, necessary or advisable in connection with the restructuring of such Collateral Obligation and such restructuring is expected to result in a Specified Amendment to such Collateral Obligation, and (2) the Collateral Manager
certifies in writing to the Trustee that the Collateral Manager either would not be permitted to or would not elect to enter into such Specified Amendment pursuant to the Standard of Care or any provision of this Indenture or the Collateral
Management Agreement or (y) the 

  
 197 








 
purchase price of any Collateral Obligations or, for the avoidance of doubt, any Equity Securities sold by and at the option of the Issuer to Depositor and subsequently sold by Depositor to the
Transferor at Market Value (which will not be determined pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) of the definition thereof) pursuant to Section 12.1(d) or Section 12.1(f). The foregoing
provisions in this paragraph constitute the “Repurchase and Substitution Limit”. 
 (d) Third Party Beneficiaries.
The Issuer and the Trustee agree that the Transferor shall be a third party beneficiary of this Indenture solely for purposes of this Section 12.3, and shall be entitled to rely upon and enforce such provisions of this
Section 12.3 to the same extent as if it were a party hereto. 
 Section 12.4 Conditions Applicable to All
Sale and Acquisition Transactions. (a) Any transaction effected under this Article XII or in connection with the acquisition of additional Collateral Obligations shall be conducted on an arm’s length basis and, if effected with
a Person Affiliated with the Collateral Manager (or with an account or portfolio for which the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates serves as investment adviser), shall be effected in accordance with the requirements of Section 5 of the
Collateral Management Agreement on terms no less favorable to the Issuer than would be the case if such Person were not so Affiliated; provided that in the case of any Collateral Obligation sold or otherwise transferred to or acquired from a
Person so Affiliated (other than any transfer to the Issuer or any acquisition by the Issuer of a Collateral Obligation effected from Depositor and Transferor pursuant to the Master Transfer Agreement contemporaneously with the origination of the
related Collateral Obligation by the Transferor), the value thereof shall be the Market Value of such Collateral Obligation (provided that Market Value shall not be determined pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) of the definition thereof;
provided, further, that if such Market Value has not been obtained by the most recent of (i) 90 days prior to such date of determination or (ii) the date of the most recently audited financial statements for the Obligor of such
Collateral Obligation, then such Collateral Obligation may not be sold or otherwise transferred to or acquired by a Person so Affiliated until such Market Value has been obtained in accordance with such time constraints); provided,
further, any Collateral Obligation acquired from a Person so Affiliated shall be acquired pursuant to and in accordance with the Master Transfer Agreement but may be settled directly into the Issuer for administrative convenience;
provided, further that the Trustee shall have no responsibility to oversee compliance with this clause (a) by the other parties. 

(b) Upon any acquisition of a Collateral Obligation pursuant to this Article XII, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest to
the Asset or Assets shall be Granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, such Asset or Assets shall be Delivered to the Custodian, and, if applicable, the Custodian shall receive such Asset or Assets. The Trustee shall also receive, not later
than the Subsequent Delivery Date, an Officer’s certificate of the Issuer containing the statements set forth in Section 3.1(a)(ix); provided that such requirement shall be satisfied, and such statements shall
be deemed to have been made by the Issuer, in respect of such acquisition by the delivery to the Trustee of an Issuer Order. 
 (c) If the
Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on its behalf) enters into a committed acquisition for an additional Collateral Obligation during one Interest Accrual Period that will settle after such Interest Accrual Period, the Collateral Manager shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to settle such additional Collateral Obligation during the immediately succeeding Interest 

  
 198 








 
Accrual Period. In no event shall the Trustee be obligated to settle a trade to the extent such action would result in a negative balance or overdraft of the Principal Collection Subaccount, and
the Trustee shall incur no liability for refusing to wire funds in excess of the balance of funds in the Principal Collection Subaccount. 

(d) Upon the direction to commence any liquidation of the Assets due to an Event of Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured
Notes being delivered, liquidation of the Assets shall be effected as described under Section 5.5. In such an event, none of the Collateral Manager or the Issuer shall have the right to direct the sale of such Assets. 

Section 12.5 Amendments to Underlying Instruments. (a) Subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 12.5, the
Issuer may enter into any exchange, amendment or waiver of or supplement to any Underlying Instrument. 
 (b) Maturity Amendments. The
Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s behalf) may not vote in favor of a Maturity Amendment unless, as determined by the Collateral Manager: 

(i) (A) the Maximum Weighted Average Life Test will be satisfied after giving effect to such Maturity Amendment or
(B) solely during the Reinvestment Period, if the Maximum Weighted Average Life Test was not satisfied immediately prior to giving effect to such Maturity Amendment, the level of compliance with the Maximum Weighted Average Life Test will be
improved or maintained after giving effect to such Maturity Amendment, in each case after giving effect to any Trading Plan in effect during the applicable Trading Plan Period; provided that this clause (i) shall not apply to any
amendment in connection with an insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, debt restructuring or workout of the Obligor thereof; and 

(ii) the following conditions are met: (1) the extended maturity date of such Collateral Obligation would not be later
than two years beyond the earliest Stated Maturity (as of the Closing Date) of the Notes and (2) after giving effect to such Maturity Amendment not more than 5.0% of the Total Capitalization may consist of Collateral Obligations that are
Permitted Maturity Obligations. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, after giving effect to such Maturity Amendment, the Collateral Obligation
that is the subject of such Maturity Amendment must satisfy the definition of “Collateral Obligation” other than clause (iv) of the definition thereof. 

ARTICLE XIII 

HOLDERS’ RELATIONS 

Section 13.1 Subordination. (a) Anything in this Indenture or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the Holders of each
Class of Notes that constitute a Junior Class agree for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes of each Priority Class with respect to such Junior Class that such Junior Class shall be subordinate and junior to the Notes of
each such Priority Class to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Indenture. 

  
 199 








 (b) If contrary to the provisions of this Indenture any Holder of Notes of any Junior
Class shall have received any payment or distribution in respect of such Notes contrary to the provisions of this Indenture, then, unless and until each Priority Class with respect thereto shall have been paid in full in Cash or, to the
extent a Majority of such Priority Class consents, other than in Cash in accordance with this Indenture, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over and delivered to, the

provided that after a Priority Class has been paid in full, the Holders of the related Junior Class or Classes shall be fully subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Priority Class. Nothing in this
Section 13.1 shall affect the obligation of the Issuer to pay Holders of any Junior Class of Notes. 
 (d) By
its acceptance of an interest in the Notes, each Holder and beneficial owner of Notes acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of Section 5.4(d).

ARTICLE XIV 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 14.1 Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered
by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or
give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 

  
 200 








 Any certificate or opinion of an Officer of the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer or the Collateral Manager may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel (provided that such counsel is a nationally or
internationally recognized and reputable law firm, one or more of the partners of which are admitted to practice before the highest court of any State of the United States or the District of Columbia (or the Cayman Islands, in the case of an opinion
relating to the laws of the Cayman Islands), which law firm may, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, be counsel for the Issuer or the Co-Issuer), unless such Officer knows, or should know
that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Officer of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or
the Collateral Manager or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Collateral Manager
or any other Person (on which the Trustee shall also be entitled to conclusively rely), stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the
Collateral Manager or such other Person, unless such Officer of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Collateral Manager or such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may also be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer of the Collateral Manager or the Issuer, stating that the information with
respect to such matters is in the possession of the Collateral Manager, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters
are erroneous. 
 Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates,
statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Whenever
in this Indenture it is provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation of a Default or Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Trustee at the request or direction of the Applicable Issuers, then
notwithstanding that the satisfaction of such condition is a condition precedent to the Applicable Issuer’s right to make such request or direction, the Trustee shall be protected in acting in accordance with such request or direction if it
does not have knowledge of the occurrence and continuation of such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section 6.1(d). 

The Bank, in all of its capacities, agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture or any document
executed in connection herewith sent by unsecured email, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods, in each such case of a manually executed instruction or direction on the applicable letterhead (which instruction or
direction may be in the form of a .pdf file attached to an email); provided, however, that any Person providing such instructions or directions shall provide to the Bank an incumbency certificate listing authorized persons designated to
provide such instructions or directions, which incumbency certificate shall be amended whenever a person is added or deleted from the listing. If such person elects to give the Bank email or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar
electronic method) and the Bank in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Bank’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Bank shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising
directly or indirectly from the Bank’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any person providing such instructions or
directions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit 

  
 201 








 
instructions and directions to the Bank, including without limitation the risk of the Bank acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties and
acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by it and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of such
instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances. 

Section 14.2 Acts of Holders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action or actions
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Co-Issuers, if made in the manner provided in this Section 14.2. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Trustee deems
sufficient. 
 (c) The principal amount or face amount, as the case may be, and registered numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date
of such Person’s holding the same, shall be proved by the Register. 
 (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder (and any transferee thereof) of such and of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything
done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

(b) If any provision in this Indenture calls for any notice or document to be delivered simultaneously to the Trustee and any other person or

to the contrary contained herein or in any agreement or document related thereto, any report, statement or other information required to be provided by the Issuer or the Trustee may be provided by providing access to a website containing such
information. 
 (e) The parties hereto agree that all 17g-5 Information provided to the Rating

 Section 14.4 Notices to Holders; Waiver. Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provide for notice to Holders of any event, 
 (a) such notice shall be sufficiently given to
Holders if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid (or, in the case of Holders of Global Secured Notes, e-mailed to DTC), to each Holder affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it
appears in the Register not earlier than the earliest date and not later than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice; and 

(b) such notice shall be in the English language. 

Such notices shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such mailing. 

Notwithstanding clause (a) above, a Holder may give the Trustee a written notice that it is requesting that notices to it be given by
electronic mail or by facsimile transmissions and stating the electronic mail address or facsimile number for such transmission. Thereafter, the Trustee shall give notices to such Holder by electronic mail or facsimile transmission, as so requested;
provided that if such notice also requests that notices be given by mail, then such notice shall also be given by mail in accordance with clause (a) above. Notices for Holders may also be posted to the Trustee’s internet website.

 The Trustee shall deliver to the Holders any information or notice relating to this Indenture requested to be so delivered by at least
25% of the Holders of any Class of Notes (by Aggregate Outstanding Amount), at the expense of the Issuer; provided that the Trustee may decline to send any such notice that it reasonably determines to be contrary to (i) any of the
terms of this Indenture, (ii) any duty or obligation that the Trustee may have hereunder or (iii) applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, such information shall not include any Accountants’ Certificate. The Trustee may require the
requesting Holders to comply with its standard verification policies in order to confirm Holder status. 
 Neither the failure to mail any
notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or
similar activity or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail of any event to Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then such notification to Holders as
shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance
upon such waiver.

thereof to any party hereto or any circumstance, is held to be unenforceable, invalid or illegal (in whole or in part) for any reason (in any relevant jurisdiction), the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture or the
Notes, modified by the deletion of the unenforceable, invalid or illegal portion (in any relevant jurisdiction), shall continue in full force and effect, and such unenforceability, invalidity, or illegality shall not otherwise affect the
enforceability, validity or legality of the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, so long as this Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, as so modified continues to express,
without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the deletion of such portion of this Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, shall not substantially impair the respective expectations or
reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.

precludes any of the parties from bringing Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, nor shall the bringing of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction.

liability whatsoever to any other Party under this Indenture, the Notes, any such agreement or otherwise and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, none of the Parties shall be entitled to take any action to enforce, or bring any

contemplated hereby or under the Transaction Documents or in any way relating to the Notes with the Rating Agency without the prior written consent (which may be in the form of e-mail correspondence) or
participation of the Collateral Manager, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Collateral Manager; provided that nothing in this Section 14.16 shall prohibit the Trustee from making available on its internet

the Trustee and the Collateral Manager, provide to the Rating Agency for the purposes of determining the initial credit rating of the Secured Notes or undertaking credit rating surveillance of the Secured Notes (the “17g-5 Information”). At all times while any Secured Notes are rated by the Rating Agency or any other NRSRO, the Co-Issuers shall engage a third-party to post 17g-5 Information to the 17g-5 Website. On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall engage the Collateral Administrator (in such capacity, the “Information Agent”),

Default or Event of Default. 

  
 208

or any other law or regulation. 
 (f) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for the dissemination of any identification numbers or
passwords for the 17g-5 Website, including by the Co-Issuers, the Rating Agency, the NRSROs, any of their agents or any other party. The Trustee shall not be liable for

performance of its obligations under this Indenture, the Collateral Administration Agreement or other transaction document related thereto; and provided that delivery to the Holders by the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator of any report
of information required by the terms of this Indenture to be provided to Holders shall not be a violation of this Section 14.18. Each Holder of Notes shall, by its acceptance of its Note, be deemed to have agreed, except as
set forth in clauses (vi), (vii) and (x) above, that it shall use the Confidential Information for the sole purpose of making an investment in the Notes or administering its investment in the Notes; and that the Trustee, the Collateral
Administrator shall neither be required nor authorized to disclose to Holders any Confidential Information in violation of this Section 14.18. In the event of any required disclosure of the Confidential Information by such
Holder, such Holder shall, by its acceptance of its Note, be deemed to have agreed to use reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. Each Holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, shall be deemed to have
agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 14.18. 
 (b) For the purposes of this
Section 14.18, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator or any Holder of Notes by or on behalf of the
Co-Issuers in connection with and relating to the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Indenture (including, without limitation, information relating to Obligors); provided that
such term does not include information that: (i) was publicly known or otherwise known to the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator or such Holder prior to the time of such disclosure; (ii) subsequently becomes publicly known through no
act or omission by the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator, any Holder or any Person acting on behalf of the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator or any Holder; (iii) otherwise is known or becomes known to the Trustee, the Collateral
Administrator or any Holder other than (x) through disclosure by the Co-Issuers, the Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates, as applicable, or (y) to the knowledge of the Trustee, the
Collateral Administrator or a Holder, as the case may be, in each case after reasonable inquiry, as a result of the breach of a fiduciary duty to the Issuer or a contractual duty to the Co-Issuers, the
Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates, as applicable; or (iv) is allowed to be treated as non-confidential by consent of the Collateral Manager and the
Co-Issuers. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator may
disclose Confidential Information to the extent disclosure thereof may be required by law or by any regulatory or governmental authority and the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator may disclose on a confidential basis any Confidential
Information to its agents, attorneys and auditors in connection with the performance of its responsibilities hereunder. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Manager, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator, the Initial Purchaser, the Retention Providers, the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes and each employee,
representative or other agent of those Persons, may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax

treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture and all materials of any kind, including opinions or other tax analyses, that are provided to those Persons. This
authorization to disclose the U.S. tax treatment and tax structure does not permit disclosure of information identifying the Collateral Manager, the Co-Issuers, the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator, the
Initial Purchaser or any other party to the transactions contemplated by this Indenture, the Offering or the pricing (except to the extent such information is relevant to U.S. tax structure or tax treatment of such transactions).

	2 	 Solely for the purpose of determining the S&P Recovery Rate for such loan, no loan will constitute a
“Senior Secured Loan” unless such loan (a) is secured by a valid first priority security interest in collateral, (b) in the Collateral Manager’s commercially reasonable judgment (with such determination being made in good
faith by the Collateral Manager at the time of such loan’s purchase and based upon information reasonably available to the Collateral Manager at such time and without any requirement of additional investigation beyond the Collateral
Manager’s customary credit review procedures), is secured by specified collateral that has a value not less than an amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal balance of all loans senior or pari passu to such loans, and
(ii) the outstanding principal balance of such loan, which value may be derived from, among other things, the enterprise value of the issuer of such loan, excluding any loan secured primarily or solely by equity or goodwill (provided that the
terms of this footnote may be amended or revised at any time by a written agreement of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the Trustee (without the consent of any holder of any Note), subject to the satisfaction of the S&P Rating Agency
Condition, in order to conform to S&P’s then current criteria for such loans) and (c) is not a First-Lien Last-Out Loan.
