bankruptcy) shall not in and of itself be deemed to disqualify such Indebtedness under this clause (a));

(b)            is
incurred pursuant to terms that are substantially comparable to (or more favorable to such Obligor than) market terms for substantially
similar debt of other similarly situated borrowers as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower, or, if such transaction is
not one in which there are market terms for substantially similar debt of other similarly situated borrowers, on terms that are negotiated
in good faith on an arm’s length basis (other than financial covenants, covenants governing the borrowing base and events of default
(other than events of default customary in indentures or similar instruments that have no analogous provisions in the Loan Documents or
credit agreements generally), which shall be no more restrictive upon such Obligor and its Subsidiaries in any material respect than those
set forth in the Loan Documents));


 


provided
that, such Obligor may incur any Unsecured Longer-Term Indebtedness that otherwise would not meet the requirements set forth in this clause
(b) if it has duly made a Modification Offer (whether or not it is accepted by the Required Lenders) (it being understood that put
rights or repurchase or redemption obligations arising out of circumstances that would constitute a “fundamental change” (as
such term is customarily defined in convertible note offerings) or be Events of Default under this Agreement shall not be deemed to be
more restrictive for purposes of this definition)); and


 


(c)            is
not secured by any assets of any Obligor.


 


For the avoidance of doubt, Unsecured Longer-Term Indebtedness shall
also include any refinancing, refunding, renewal or extension of any Unsecured Longer-Term Indebtedness so long as such refinanced, refunded,
renewed or extended Indebtedness continues to satisfy the requirements of this definition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 2024 Notes
shall be deemed Unsecured Longer-Term Indebtedness in all respects despite the fact that the maturity date of the 2024 Notes is prior
to the Maturity Date so long as the 2024 Notes continue to comply with all other requirements of the above definition; provided that from
and after the date that is 9 months prior to the scheduled maturity date of the 2024 Notes, the 2024 Notes shall be included in the Covered
Debt Amount.


 


“Valuation Policy” means the Borrower’s
valuation policy, as the same may be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time consistent with industry practice
for business development companies and in a manner not prohibited by this Agreement.


 


“Value” has the meaning assigned
to such term in Section 5.13.


 


“Valuation Testing Date” has the
meaning assigned to such term in Section 5.12(b)(iii)(A).


 


“Withdrawal Liability” means liability
to a Multiemployer Plan as a result of a “complete withdrawal” or “partial withdrawal” from such Multiemployer
Plan, as such terms are defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA.


 






    	 	54	 



     


    

 


“Write-Down and Conversion Powers”
means, (a) with respect to any EEA Resolution Authority, the write-down and conversion powers of such EEA Resolution Authority from
time to time under the Bail-In Legislation for the applicable EEA Member Country, which write-down and conversion powers are described
in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule, and (b) with respect to the United Kingdom, any powers of the applicable Resolution Authority
under the Bail-In Legislation to cancel, reduce, modify or change the form of a liability of any UK Financial Institution or any contract
or instrument under which that liability arises, to convert all or part of that liability into shares, securities or obligations of that
person or any other person, to provide that any such contract or instrument is to have effect as if a right had been exercised under it
or to suspend any obligation in respect of that liability or any of the powers under that Bail-In Legislation that are related to or ancillary
to any of those powers.


 


SECTION 1.02.     Classification
of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Dollar
Loan” or a “Multicurrency Loan”), by Type (e.g., an “ABR Loan” ,
“RFR Loan” or a “Eurocurrency Loan”) or by Class and
Type (e.g., a “Multicurrency Eurocurrency Loan”). Borrowings also may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g.,
a “Dollar Borrowing”, “RFR Borrowing” or
a “Multicurrency Borrowing”), by Type (e.g., an “ABR Borrowing” or a “Eurocurrency Borrowing”)
or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Multicurrency Eurocurrency Borrowing”). Loans and Borrowings may also be identified
by Currency.


 


SECTION 1.03.     Terms
Generally. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the
context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”,
“includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The
word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires
otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring
to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, renewed or
otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements, renewals or modifications set forth herein or therein),
(b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words
“herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this
Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and
Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement and (e) the words
“asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible
and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. For the avoidance of doubt, any cash payment
(other than any cash payment on account of interest or expenses or fractional shares) made by the Borrower in respect of any conversion
features in any convertible securities shall constitute a “regularly scheduled payment, prepayment or redemption of principal and
interest” within the meaning of clause (a) of Section 6.12. Solely for purposes of this Agreement, any references to “principal
amount” or “obligations” owed by any Person under any (x) Hedging Agreement (other than a total return swap) shall
refer to the amount that would be required to be paid by such Person if such Hedging Agreement were terminated at such time (after giving
effect to any netting agreement) less any collateral posted in support thereof and (y) total return swap shall refer to the notional
amount thereof less any collateral posted in support thereof.


 






    	 	55	 



     


    

 



 


SECTION 1.04.        Accounting
Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance
with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests
an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Effective Date in GAAP or in the application
thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an
amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP
or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before
such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith.
The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to enter into negotiations in good faith in order to amend such provisions
of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such change to comply with GAAP with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating
the Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such change to comply with GAAP as if such change had not been made.
The Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lenders that whether or not the Borrower may at any time adopt Financial Accounting Standard
Board Accounting Standards Codification 820 or 825-10 (or, in each case, any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result
or effect) or accounts for liabilities acquired in an acquisition on a fair value basis pursuant to Financial Accounting Standard No. 141(R) (or
successor standard solely as it relates to fair valuing liabilities), all determinations of compliance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement shall be made on the basis that the Borrower has not adopted Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standards Codification
820 or 825-10 (or, in each case, any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) or, in the case of liabilities
acquired in an acquisition, Financial Accounting Standard No. 141(R) (or such successor standard solely as it relates to fair
valuing liabilities).


 


SECTION 1.05.         Currencies;
Currency Equivalents.


 


(a)            Currencies
Generally. At any time, any reference in the definition of the term “Agreed Foreign Currency” or in any other provision
of this Agreement to the Currency of any particular nation means the lawful currency of such nation at such time whether or not the name
of such Currency is the same as it was on the Effective Date. Except as provided in Section 2.09(b) and the last sentence of
Section 2.17(a), for purposes of determining (i) whether the amount of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit under the Multicurrency
Commitments, together with all other Borrowings and Letters of Credit under the Multicurrency Commitments then outstanding or to be borrowed
at the same time as such Borrowing, would exceed the aggregate amount of such Multicurrency Commitments, (ii) the aggregate unutilized
amount of the Multicurrency Commitments, (iii) the Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure, (iv) the Multicurrency LC Exposure,
(v) the Covered Debt Amount and (vi) the Borrowing Base or the Value of any Portfolio Investment, the outstanding principal
amount of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit that is denominated in any Foreign Currency or the Value of any Portfolio Investment that
is denominated in any Foreign Currency shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the Foreign Currency of such Borrowing,
Letter of Credit or Portfolio Investment, as the case may be, determined as of the date of such Borrowing or Letter of Credit (determined
in accordance with the last sentence of the definition of the term “Interest Period”) or the date of valuation of such Portfolio
Investment, as the case may be; provided that in connection with the delivery of any Borrowing Base Certificate pursuant to Section 5.01(d) or
(e), such amounts shall be determined as of the date of delivery of such Borrowing Base Certificate.


 






    	 	56	 



     


    

 


(b)            Special
Provisions Relating to Euro. Each obligation hereunder of any party hereto that is denominated in the National Currency of a state
that is not a Participating Member State on the Effective Date shall, effective from the date on which such state becomes a Participating
Member State, be redenominated in Euro in accordance with the legislation of the European Union applicable to the European Monetary Union;
provided that, if and to the extent that any such legislation provides that any such obligation of any such party payable within
such Participating Member State by crediting an account of the creditor can be paid by the debtor either in Euros or such National Currency,
such party shall be entitled to pay or repay such amount either in Euros or in such National Currency. If the basis of accrual of interest
or fees expressed in this Agreement with respect to an Agreed Foreign Currency of any country that becomes a Participating Member State
after the date on which such currency becomes an Agreed Foreign Currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the
interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest or fees in respect of the Euro, such convention or practice shall replace such expressed
basis effective as of and from the date on which such state becomes a Participating Member State; provided that, with respect to any Borrowing
denominated in such currency that is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect at the end of the
Interest Period therefor.


 


Without prejudice to the respective liabilities of
the Borrower to the Lenders and the Lenders to the Borrower under or pursuant to this Agreement, each provision of this Agreement shall
be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time, in consultation with the Borrower,
reasonably specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction or changeover to the Euro in any country that becomes a
Participating Member State after the Effective Date; provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower and the
Lenders with prior notice of the proposed change with an explanation of such change in sufficient time to permit the Borrower and the
Lenders an opportunity to respond to such proposed change.


 


(c)            Exchange
Rates; Currency Equivalents. The Administrative Agent shall determine the Exchange Rate for any Foreign Currency as of each Revaluation
Date to be used for calculating the Dollar Equivalent amounts of Loans, Letters of Credit and Revolving Credit Exposure denominated in
such Foreign Currency. Such Exchange Rate shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Exchange Rate employed in
converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements
delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other
than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent.
Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Eurocurrency Loan or RFR
Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount,
is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing, Eurocurrency Loan, RFR Loan
or Letter of Credit is denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Foreign Currency Equivalent of such
Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Agreed Foreign Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward). Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any basket in this Agreement, in no event shall any Obligor
be deemed not to be in compliance with any such basket solely as a result of a change in Exchange Rates.


 






    	 	57	 



     


    

 


SECTION 1.06.        Divisions.
For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event
under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right,
obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent
Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized or acquired on the
first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.


 


SECTION 1.07.
       Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on a Loan
denominated in Dollars or an Agreed Foreign Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future
become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of
these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and
regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered
rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London
interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer
persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to
the ICE Benchmark Administration, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a
result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be
deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans denominated in a
LIBOR Quoted CurrencyDollars.
In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative
reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a
Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-In Election, Sections 2.12(b) and (c) provide a mechanism for determining an
alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.12(e), of any
change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on a Eurocurrency Loan is based. However, the Administrative Agent does
not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any
other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBOR” (or
“EURIBOR”, as applicable) or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof
(including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to
Section 2.12(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an
Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to
Section 2.12(d)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor
or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, LIBOR (or EURIBOR, as
applicable) or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate (or the Euro interbank offered rate, as
applicable) prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

Article II


THE
CREDITS


 


SECTION 2.01.        The
Commitments


 


Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein:


 


(a)            each
Dollar Lender severally agrees to make Dollar Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal
amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving Dollar Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Dollar Commitment,
(ii) the aggregate Revolving Dollar Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders exceeding the Dollar Commitments or (iii) the total
Covered Debt Amount exceeding the Borrowing Base then in effect; and


 


(b)            each
Multicurrency Lender severally agrees to make Multicurrency Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in
an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure exceeding such
Lender’s Multicurrency Commitment, (ii) the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders exceeding
the Multicurrency Commitments, or (iii) the total Covered Debt Amount exceeding the Borrowing Base then in effect.


 


Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Loans.


 


SECTION 2.02.        Loans
and Borrowings.


 


(a)            Obligations
of Lenders. Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class, Currency and Type made by the applicable
Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the same Class. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required
to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders
are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.


 


(b)            Type
of Loans. Subject to Section 2.12, each Borrowing of a Class shall be constituted entirely of ABR Loans,
of RFR Loans or of Eurocurrency Loans of such Class denominated in a single Currency as the Borrower may request in accordance
herewith. Each ABR Loan shall be denominated in Dollars. Each Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency shall be constituted
entirely of Eurocurrency Loans or RFR Loans. Each Lender at its
option may make any Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan by causing any
domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (x) any exercise of such option shall
not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (y) in exercising
such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation
of the Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which
it will not be compensated hereunder or that it determines would be otherwise disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for
costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.14 shall apply).


 






    	 	59	 



     


    

 


(c)            Minimum
Amounts. Each Borrowing (whether Eurocurrency, RFR or ABR) shall
be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, with respect to any Agreed Foreign
Currency, such smaller minimum amount as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent; provided that a Borrowing of a Class may
be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unutilized balance of the total Commitments of such Class or that is required
to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement of such Class as contemplated by Section 2.04(f). Borrowings of more than
one Class, Currency and Type may be outstanding at the same time.


 


(d)            Limitations
on Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request (or to elect
to convert to or continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing) any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested therefor would end after the Maturity
Date.


 


SECTION 2.03.        Requests
for Borrowings.


 


(a)            Notice
by the Borrower. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by delivery of a signed
Borrowing Request or by e-mail (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 12:00 p.m.,
New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated

Each such e-mail Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy or e-mail to the Administrative
Agent of a written Borrowing Request, signed by the Borrower.


 


(b)            Content
of Borrowing Requests. Each request for a Borrowing (whether a written Borrowing Request or an e-mail request) shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:


 


(i)            whether
such Borrowing is to be made under the Dollar Commitments or the Multicurrency Commitments;


 


(ii)            the
aggregate amount and Currency of such Borrowing;


 


(iii)            the
date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;


 


(iv)            in
the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;


 






    	 	60	 



     


    

 


(v)            in
the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term
“Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d); and


 


(vi)            the
location and number of the Borrower’s account (or such other account(s) as the Borrower may designate in a written Borrowing
Request accompanied by information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to the identity and purpose of such other account(s))
to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05.


 


(c)            Notice
by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03,
the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amounts of such Lender’s Loan to
be made as part of the requested Borrowing.


 


(d)            Failure
to Elect. If no election as to the Class of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall
be denominated in Dollars and shall be a Multicurrency Borrowing (or, to the extent such requested Borrowing exceeds the available Multicurrency
Commitments, a Dollar Borrowing in an amount equal to such excess to the extent there is availability under the Dollar Commitments). If
no election as to the Currency of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in
Dollars. If no election as to the Type of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Eurocurrency
Borrowing having an Interest Period of one month and if an Agreed Foreign Currency has been specified, the requested Borrowing shall be
a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such Agreed Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month;
provided, however, if the specified Foreign Currency is Pounds Sterling or CHF, the requested Borrowing shall be an RFR Borrowing.
If a Eurocurrency Borrowing is requested but no Interest Period is specified, (i) if the Currency specified for such Borrowing is
Dollars (or if no Currency has been so specified), the requested Borrowing shall be a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars having
an Interest Period of one month’s duration, and (ii) if the Currency specified for such Borrowing is an Agreed Foreign Currency,
the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.


 


SECTION 2.04.        Letters
of Credit.


 


(a)            General.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Loans provided for in Section 2.01, the Borrower may request
any Issuing Bank to issue, and each Issuing Bank severally agrees to issue, at any time and from time to time during the Availability
Period, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in any Agreed Foreign Currency for its own account or the account of its designee
(provided the Obligors shall remain primarily liable to the Lenders hereunder for payment and reimbursement of all amounts payable in
respect of such Letter of Credit hereunder) in such form as is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its reasonable determination and for
the benefit of such named beneficiary or beneficiaries as are specified by the Borrower. Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall constitute
utilization of the Multicurrency Commitments or the Dollar Commitments, as applicable, up to the aggregate amount then available to be
drawn thereunder. Without limiting any rights of an Issuing Bank under this Section 2.04, no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue,
amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currency if at the time of such issuance, such Issuing Bank, in
its capacity as a Lender, would not be required to make Loans in such Foreign Currency hereunder.


 






    	 	61	 



     


    

 


(b)            Notice
of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension
of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by e-mail, if arrangements for doing so
have been approved by such Issuing Bank) to any Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date
of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit
to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day),
the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (d) of this Section 2.04), the
amount, Class and Currency of such Letter of Credit, stating that such Letter of Credit is to be issued under the Multicurrency Commitments,
in the case of any Multicurrency Issuing Bank, or the Dollar Commitments, in the case of any Dollar Issuing Bank, the name and address
of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit.
The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Class of Lenders following the issuance of any Letter of Credit. If
requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard
form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or
entered into by the Borrower with, any Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall
control.


 


(c)            Limitations
on Amounts. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure at such time of the Issuing Banks (determined for these purposes without giving
effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.04) shall not exceed $47,500,000,
(ii) the aggregate LC Exposure of such Issuing Bank (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein
of the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.04) shall not exceed such Issuing Bank’s LC Commitment
(or such greater amount as may be agreed between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank from time to time, subject to clause (c)(i) above),
(iii) the total Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Multicurrency Commitments and the total Revolving
Dollar Credit Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Dollar Commitments and (iv) the total Covered Debt Amount shall not exceed
the Borrowing Base then in effect.


 


(d)            Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date twelve months after the date of the issuance
of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve months after the then-current expiration date of
such Letter of Credit, so long as such renewal or extension occurs within six months of such then-current expiration date); provided
that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods; provided further,
that (x) in no event shall a Letter of Credit expire after the Commitment Termination Date unless the Borrower (1) deposits,
on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account Cash, an amount equal to 102% of the
undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit that remain outstanding as of the close of business on the Commitment Termination Date and
(2) pays in full, on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, all commissions required to be paid with respect to any such Letter
of Credit through the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit and (y) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date
after the Maturity Date.

(e)            Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by an Issuing Bank, and without
any further action on the part of such Issuing Bank or the Lenders, (i) in the case of a Multicurrency Issuing Bank, such Multicurrency
Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Multicurrency Lender, and each Multicurrency Lender hereby acquires from such Multicurrency Issuing
Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Multicurrency Percentage of the aggregate amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (ii) in the case of a Dollar Issuing Bank, such Dollar Issuing Bank hereby
grants to each Dollar Lender, and each Dollar Lender hereby acquires from such Dollar Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of
Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Dollar Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.
Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of
Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension
of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the applicable Class of Commitments;
provided that no Lender shall be required to purchase a participation in a Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.04(e) if
(x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing at the time such Letter of Credit
was issued and (y) the Administrative Agent shall have so notified such Issuing Bank in writing and shall not have subsequently determined
that the circumstances giving rise to such conditions not being satisfied no longer exist.


 


In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing,
(x) each Multicurrency Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
each Multicurrency Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Multicurrency Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Multicurrency
Issuing Bank and (y) each Dollar Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of each Dollar Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Dollar Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Dollar Issuing
Bank, in each case, promptly upon the request of such Issuing Bank at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement
is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.
Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the
same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank
the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.04(f), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent
that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank
as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement
shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.


 






    	 	63	 



     


    

 


(f)            Reimbursement.
If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by it, the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing
Bank in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00
noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received
prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such
notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time; provided that, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing
set forth herein (other than any minimum amounts, including as set forth in Section 2.02(c)), request in accordance with Section 2.03
that such payment be financed with a Eurocurrency Borrowing having an Interest Period of one month’s duration of either Class,
an RFR Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing of either Class in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s
obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Eurocurrency Borrowing having an Interest Period of
one month’s duration, an RFR Borrowing or ABR Borrowing, as
applicable.


 


If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due,
the Administrative Agent shall notify each affected Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in
respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Multicurrency Percentage or Applicable Dollar Percentage, as applicable, thereof.


 


(g)            Obligations
Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 2.04
shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under
any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any
term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or
invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under
a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit,
and (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions
of this Section 2.04, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.


 






    	 	64	 



     


    

 


None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, or
any of their respective Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or
transfer of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Banks or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of
the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery
of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing
thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Banks;
provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any
direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted
by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by any Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining
whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree
that:


 


(i)            the
Issuing Banks may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation
of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit;


 


(ii)            the
Issuing Banks shall have the right, in their sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents
are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and


 


(iii)            this
sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Banks when determining whether drafts and other documents
presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).


 


(h)            Disbursement
Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent
a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telecopy or e-mail of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will
make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower
of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.


 


(i)            Interim
Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full
on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such
LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable
to Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration (or,
if such LC Disbursement is denominated in Pounds Sterling or CHF, the rate per annum then applicable to RFR Loans for the applicable Currency);
provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement within two Business Days following the date when due pursuant
to paragraph (f) of this Section 2.04, then the provisions of Section 2.11(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant
to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment
by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section 2.04 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of
such Lender to the extent of such payment.


 






    	 	65	 



     


    

 


(j)            Replacement
of Issuing Banks. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Lenders of any such replacement
of any Issuing Bank. In addition, if any Issuing Bank, in its capacity as a Lender, assigns all of its Loans and Commitments in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, such Issuing Bank may, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j),
or (k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing), resign as an Issuing Bank hereunder upon not less than three Business
Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower
shall pay all its unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after the
effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced
Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term
“Issuing Bank” and/or “Issuing Banks” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or successors (and the other
current Issuing Banks, if applicable) or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or successors (and all other current Issuing
Banks) and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of any Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced
Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement
with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.


 


(k)            Cash
Collateralization. If the Borrower shall be required to provide cover for its LC Exposure of a Class pursuant to Section 2.08(a),
Section 2.09(c), Section 2.09(d), Section 2.09(e) or the last paragraph of Article VII, the Borrower shall promptly
deposit into a segregated collateral account or accounts (herein, collectively, the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”)
in the name and under the dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, Cash denominated in the Currency of the Letter of Credit under
which such LC Exposure arises in an amount equal to the amount required under Section 2.08(a), Section 2.09(c), Section 2.09(d),
Section 2.09(e) or the last paragraph of Article VII, as applicable. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent
as collateral in the first instance for its LC Exposure under this Agreement and thereafter for the payment of the Secured Obligations,
and for these purposes the Borrower hereby grants a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in the
Letter of Credit Collateral Account and in any financial assets (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) or other property held
therein. If the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such cash
collateral (to the extent not applied as set forth in this Section 2.04(k)) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business
Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral hereunder pursuant
to Section 2.09(b)(ii), such cash collateral (to the extent not applied as set forth in this Section 2.04(k)) shall be returned
to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the aggregate Credit Exposures would not exceed the aggregate
Commitments.


 






    	 	66	 



     


    

 


(l)            Designation
of Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), designate as additional Issuing Banks one (1) or more Lenders
that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall
be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such
Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references
herein or therein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters
of Credit hereunder.


 


SECTION 2.05.     Funding
of Borrowings.


 


(a)            Funding
by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
available funds by 1:00 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose
by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so
received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided
that Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(f) shall be remitted by
the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.


 


(b)            Presumption
by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of
any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.05
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in
fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally
agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in the corresponding Currency with interest thereon,
for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative
Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the NYFRB Rate or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at
the time to Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration made to the Borrower (or,
if such LC Disbursement is denominated in Pounds Sterling or CHF, the rate per annum then applicable to RFR Loans for the applicable Currency).
If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such
Borrowing. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder, and shall be without
prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.


 






    	 	67	 



     


    

 


SECTION 2.06.     Interest
Elections.


 


(a)            (a) Elections
by the Borrower for Borrowings. Subject to Section 2.03(d), the Loans constituting each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type
specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period specified in
such Borrowing Request. Thereafter the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue
such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all
as provided in this Section 2.06; provided, however, that (i) a Borrowing of a Class may only be continued
or converted into a Borrowing of the same Class, (ii) a Borrowing denominated in one Currency may not be continued as, or converted
into, a Borrowing in a different Currency, (iii) no Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency may be continued if,
after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposures would exceed the aggregate Multicurrency Commitments,
and (iv) a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency may not be converted into a Borrowing of a different Type. The
Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall
be allocated ratably among the Lenders of the respective Class holding the Loans constituting such Borrowing, and the Loans constituting
each such portion shall thereafter be considered a separate Borrowing.


 


(b)            Notice
of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.06, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election
by delivery of a signed Interest Election Request or by e-mail by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03
if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.
Each such e-mail Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy or e-mail to
the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower.


 


(c)            Content
of Interest Election Requests. Each Interest Election Request (whether a written Interest Election Request or an e-mail request) shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:


 


(i)            the
Borrowing (including the Class) to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect
to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph (c) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);


 


(ii)            the
effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;


 


(iii)            in
the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;
and


 


(iv)            if
the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall be
a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d).


 


(d)            Notice
by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall
advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.


 






    	 	68	 



     


    

 


(e)            Failure
to Elect; Events of Default. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency
Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, (i) if such
Borrowing is denominated in Dollars, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing
of the same Class having an Interest Period of one month’s duration, and (ii) if such Borrowing is denominated in a Foreign
Currency, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders,
so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as such Event of Default is continuing no outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing may have an Interest
Period of more than one month’s duration.


 


SECTION 2.07.        Termination,
Reduction or Increase of the Commitments.


 


(a)            Scheduled
Termination. Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Commitments of each Class shall
terminate on the Commitment Termination Date.


 


(b)            Voluntary
Termination or Reduction. The Borrower may at any time without premium or penalty terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments
ratably among each Class; provided that (i) each reduction of any Commitments pursuant to this sentence shall be in an amount that
is $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in each case, if less, the entire remaining amount of the Commitments
of any Class) and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, immediately after giving effect to any concurrent
prepayment of the Loans of any Class in accordance with Section 2.09, the total Revolving Credit Exposures of such Class would
exceed the total Commitments of such Class.


 


(c)            Notice
of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the
Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.07 at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination
or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent
shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.07
shall be irrevocable; provided that any such notice of termination or reduction of the Commitments of a Class may state that
such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other events, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice
to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.


 


(d)            Effect
of Termination or Reduction. Each termination or reduction of Commitments of a Class made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 2.07 shall (i) be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class and
(ii) result in a permanent termination of Commitments in an amount equal to the Commitments so terminated or reduced. Each Lender
authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to, concurrently with and immediately after the effectiveness of any termination or
reduction of Commitments pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.07, amend Schedule I to reflect the aggregate amount of
each Lender’s aggregate Commitments.


 






    	 	69	 



     


    

 


(e)            Increase
of the Commitments.


 


(i)            Requests
for Increase. The Borrower shall have the right, at any time after the Effective Date but prior to the Commitment Termination Date,
to propose that the Commitments of a Class hereunder be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”)
by notice to the Administrative Agent, specifying each existing Lender (each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or each additional
lender (each an “Assuming Lender”) that shall have agreed to an additional Commitment and the date on which such increase
is to be effective (the “Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at least three Business Days (or
such lesser period as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree) after delivery of such notice and at least 30 days prior
to the Commitment Termination Date; provided that no Lender shall be obligated to provide any increased Commitment; provided,
further that:


 


(A)            each
increase shall be in a minimum amount of at least $25,000,000 or a larger multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in each case,
in such other amounts as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree);


 


(B)            the
aggregate amount of all Commitments outstanding, at any given time, shall not exceed $712,500,0001,500,000,000;


 


(C)            each
Assuming Lender shall be consented to by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks (in each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed);


 


(D)            no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such Commitment Increase Date or shall result from the proposed Commitment
Increase; and


 


(E)            the
representations and warranties made by the Borrower contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (unless
the relevant representation and warranty already contains a materiality qualifier or, in the case of the representations and warranties
in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.04, 3.11 and 3.15 of this Agreement, and in Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 2.04 through 2.08
of the Guarantee and Security Agreement, in each such case, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects)
on and as of the Commitment Increase Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated
to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date).


 






    	 	70	 



     


    

 


(ii)            Effectiveness
of Commitment Increase. On the Commitment Increase Date for any Commitment Increase, (A) each Assuming Lender, if any, shall
become a Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase Date with the Commitment in the amount set forth in the agreement referred to
in Section 2.07(e)(ii)(y) and (B) the Commitment of the respective Class of each Increasing Lender part of such Commitment
Increase, if any, shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date to the amount set forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.07(e)(ii)(y);
provided that:


 


(x)            the
Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date a certificate
signed by a duly Authorized Signatory of the Borrower stating that each of the applicable conditions to such Commitment Increase set forth
in the foregoing paragraph (i) has been satisfied; and


 


(y)            each
Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time,
on such Commitment Increase Date, an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
pursuant to which such Lender shall, effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, undertake a Commitment or an increase of Commitment
in each case of the respective Class, duly executed by such Assuming Lender or such Increasing Lender, as applicable, and the Borrower,
and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent.


 


(iii)            Recordation
into Register. Upon its receipt of (1) an agreement referred to in clause (ii)(y) above executed by each Assuming Lender
and each Increasing Lender part of such Commitment Increase, as applicable, together with the certificate referred to in clause (ii)(x) above
and (2) an amended Schedule I pursuant to clause (d) above, the Administrative Agent shall, (x) if such agreement referred
to in clause (ii)(y) has been completed, accept such agreement, (y) record the information contained in the amended Schedule
I in the Register and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.


 


(iv)            Adjustments
of Borrowings upon Effectiveness of Increase. On each Commitment Increase Date, the Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding
Loans (if any) of the affected Class in full, (B) simultaneously borrow new Loans of such Class hereunder in an amount
equal to such prepayment (in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, with the Benchmark equal to the outstanding Benchmark and with Interest Period(s) ending
on the date(s) of any then outstanding Interest Period(s), as applicable (as modified hereby); provided that with respect
to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the prepayment to, and borrowing from, any existing Lender shall be effected by book entry to
the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the existing
Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans of such Class are held ratably by the Lenders of such Class in
accordance with the respective Commitments of such Class (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (C) pay to the
Lenders of such Class the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.15 as a result of any such prepayment. Concurrently therewith,
the Lenders of such Class shall be deemed to have adjusted their participation interests in any outstanding Letters of Credit of
such Class so that such interests are held ratably in accordance with their Commitments of such Class as so increased.


 


(v)            Terms
of Loans Issued on the Commitment Increase Date. The terms and provisions of any new Loans issued by any Assuming Lender or Increasing
Lender, and the Commitment Increase of any Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender, shall be identical to the terms and provisions of Loans
issued by, and Commitments of, the Lenders immediately prior to the applicable Commitment Increase Date (except that any upfront or similar
one-time fee may be different).

SECTION 2.08.         Repayment
of Loans; Evidence of Debt.


 


(a)            Repayment.
The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders the outstanding
principal amount of each Class of Loans and all other amounts due and owing hereunder and under the other Loan Documents on the Maturity
Date.


 


In addition, on the Maturity Date, to the extent
any Letter of Credit is outstanding (notwithstanding the requirements of clause (y) of the second proviso of Section 2.04(d)),
the Borrower shall deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account Cash an amount equal to 102% of the undrawn face amount of
all Letters of Credit outstanding on the close of business on the Maturity Date, such deposit to be held by the Administrative Agent as
collateral security for the LC Exposure under this Agreement in respect of the undrawn portion of such Letters of Credit.


 


(b)            Manner
of Payment. Subject to Section 2.09(e), prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall
select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telecopy or e-mail of such selection not later
than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. If the repayment or prepayment
is denominated in Dollars and the Class to be repaid or prepaid is specified (or if no Class is specified and there is only
one Class of Loans with Borrowings denominated in Dollars outstanding), the Borrower shall repay or prepay any outstanding ABR Borrowings
of such Class pro rata and thereafter repay or prepay the remaining Borrowings within such Class in the order of the remaining
duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first).
If the repayment or prepayment is denominated in Dollars and the Class to be repaid or prepaid is not specified, the Borrower shall
repay or prepay pro rata between any outstanding ABR Borrowings of the Dollar Lenders and the Multicurrency Lenders, and thereafter repay
or prepay the remaining Borrowings denominated in Dollars in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods
(the Borrowings with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first). If the repayment or prepayment is denominated
in an Agreed Foreign Currency (including as a result of the Borrower’s receipt of proceeds from a prepayment event in such Agreed
Foreign Currency), the Borrower may, at its option, repay or prepay any outstanding Borrowings in such Currency ratably among just the
Multicurrency Lenders in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining
Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first), and, if after such payment, the balance of the Borrowings denominated in such Currency
is zero, then if there are any remaining proceeds, the Borrower shall repay or prepay the Loans (or provide cover for outstanding Letters
of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) on a pro-rata basis between each outstanding Class of Revolving Credit Exposure
in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period
to be repaid or prepaid first). Each payment of a Borrowing of a Class shall be applied ratably to the Loans of such Class included
in such Borrowing.

(c)            Maintenance
of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness of the
Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts and Currency of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.


 


(d)            Maintenance
of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record (i) the amount
and Currency of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount and
Currency of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender of such Class hereunder
and (iii) the amount and Currency of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each
Lender’s share thereof.


 


(e)            Effect
of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section 2.08 shall
be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided
that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect
the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between
the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent in respect of such
matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. In the event of any conflict
between the Register and any other accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent, the Register shall control in the absence
of manifest error.


 


(f)            Promissory
Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare,
execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its permitted
registered assigns) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E or in such other form as shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including
after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named
therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its permitted registered assigns).


 


SECTION 2.09.     Prepayment
of Loans.


 


(a)            Optional
Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty except for payments under Section 2.15, subject to the requirements of this Section 2.09.


 


(b)            Mandatory
Prepayments Due to Changes in Exchange Rates.


 


(i)            Determination
of Amount Outstanding. On each Revaluation Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit
Exposure. For the purpose of this determination, the outstanding principal amount of any Loan or LC Exposure that is denominated in any
Foreign Currency shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the amount in the Foreign Currency of such Loan or LC Exposure, determined
as of such Revaluation Date. Upon making such determination, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Multicurrency Lenders
and the Borrower thereof.


 






    	 	73	 



     


    

 


(ii)            Prepayment.
If, on such Revaluation Date, the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure minus the Multicurrency LC Exposure fully cash collateralized
pursuant to Section 2.04(k) on such date exceeds 105% of the aggregate amount of the Multicurrency Commitments as then
in effect, the Borrower shall prepay the Multicurrency Loans (and/or provide cover for Multicurrency LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.04(k))
within 15 Business Days following such Revaluation Date in such aggregate amounts, if any, as shall be necessary so that after giving
effect thereto and the determination of the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure as of such date the aggregate Revolving
Multicurrency Credit Exposure does not exceed the Multicurrency Commitments.


 


Any prepayment made pursuant to this paragraph shall
be applied, first, to Multicurrency Loans outstanding and second, as cover for Multicurrency LC Exposure.


 


(c)            Mandatory
Prepayments due to Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that at any time any Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist, the Borrower
shall (x) prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)), (y) reduce
its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount or (z) otherwise remedy the Borrowing Base Deficiency, in such
amounts as shall be necessary so that such Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured within five Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing
Base Certificate demonstrating such Borrowing Base Deficiency; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of such prepayment of
Loans (and cover for Letters of Credit) shall be at least equal to the Revolving Credit Exposure’s ratable share (such ratable share
being determined based on the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures as compared to its other Indebtedness that
is included in the Covered Debt Amount) of the aggregate prepayment and reduction of its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered
Debt Amount and (ii) if, within five Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating such Borrowing Base
Deficiency (and/or at such other times as the Borrower has knowledge of such Borrowing Base Deficiency), the Borrower shall present the
Administrative Agent with a reasonably feasible plan to enable such Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days
(which 30-Business Day period shall include the five Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan), then such prepayment (and/or
cash collateralization), reduction or addition of assets to the Borrowing Base shall not be required to be effected immediately but may
be effected in accordance with such plan (with such modifications as the Borrower may reasonably determine), so long as such Borrowing
Base Deficiency is cured within such 30-Business Day period; provided, further that solely to the extent such Borrowing Base Deficiency
is due to the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the Senior Investment Minimum Covenant as a consequence of either (x) a decrease
in the ratio of the Gross Borrowing Base to Senior Debt Amount or (y) a decrease in the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio from one quarterly
period to the next, such 30-Business Day period shall be extended to a 45-Business Day period solely with respect to compliance with the
Senior Investment Minimum Covenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the existence
of a Borrowing Base Deficiency shall not be a Specified Default or Event of Default hereunder until the expiration of the applicable grace
or cure period.


 






    	 	74	 



     


    

 


(d)            Mandatory

exist, the Borrower shall (x) prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)),
(y) reduce its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount or (z) otherwise remedy the Contingent Borrowing
Base Deficiency, in such amounts as shall be necessary so that such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured within five
Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency; provided
that (i) the aggregate amount of such prepayment of Loans (and cover for Letters of Credit) shall be at least equal to the Revolving
Credit Exposure’s ratable share (such ratable share being determined based on the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Credit Exposures as compared to its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount) of the aggregate prepayment and reduction
of its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount and (ii) if, within five Business Days after delivery of a
Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency (and/or at such other times as the Borrower has knowledge
of such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency), the Borrower shall present the Administrative Agent with a reasonably feasible plan to
enable such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days (which 30-Business Day period shall include
the five Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan), then such prepayment (and/or cash collateralization), reduction or addition
of assets to the Borrowing Base shall not be required to be effected immediately but may be effected in accordance with such plan (with
such modifications as the Borrower may reasonably determine), so long as such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within such 30-Business
Day period; provided, further that solely to the extent such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency is due to the Borrower’s failure
to satisfy the Senior Investment Minimum Covenant as a consequence of either (x) a decrease in the ratio of the Gross Borrowing Base
to Senior Debt Amount or (y) a decrease in the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio from one quarterly period to the next, such 30-Business
Day period shall be extended to a 45-Business Day period solely with respect to compliance with the Senior Investment Minimum Covenant.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the existence of a Contingent Borrowing Base
Deficiency shall not be a Specified Default or Event of Default hereunder until the expiration of the applicable grace or cure period.

Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day after each Quarterly Date, commencing
on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date, and on the earlier of the date the Commitments of the respective Class terminate
and the Commitment Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding
the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, (i) the daily unused amount of the applicable Commitment shall be determined
as of the end of each day and (ii) the Commitment of any Class of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding
Loans of such Class of such Lender and LC Exposure of such Class of such Lender.

(b)            Letter
of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation
fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin applicable

in Pounds Sterling or CHF, RFR Loans) on the daily maximum amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later
of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment of the applicable Class terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to
have any LC Exposure of such Class, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.25% per
annum on the daily maximum amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) applicable
to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of
the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as each Issuing Bank’s
standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.
Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including each Quarterly Date shall be payable in arrears on the third Business
Day following such Quarterly Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that, all such
fees with respect to the Letters of Credit shall be payable on the date on which all Commitments of the applicable Class terminate
(the “termination date”), the Borrower shall pay any such fees that have accrued and that are unpaid on the termination
date and, in the event any Letters of Credit shall be outstanding that have expiration dates after the termination date, the Borrower
shall prepay on the termination date the full amount of the participation and fronting fees that will accrue on such Letters of Credit
subsequent to the termination date through but not including the date such outstanding Letters of Credit are scheduled to expire (and
in that connection, the Lenders agree not later than the date two Business Days after the date upon which the last such Letter of Credit
shall expire or be terminated to rebate to the Borrower the excess, if any, of the aggregate participation and fronting fees that have
been prepaid by the Borrower over the amount of such fees that ultimately accrue through the date of such expiration or termination).
Any other fees payable to the Issuing Banks pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand.
All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).


 


(c)            Administrative
Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.


 


(d)            Payment
of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative
Agent (or to the Issuing Banks, in the case of fees payable to them) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation
fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances absent manifest error. Any fees representing
the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations of expenses, to the extent the requirements of an invoice are not otherwise specified in
this Agreement, shall be due (subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein) within ten Business Days of the date that the
Borrower receives from the Administrative Agent a reasonably detailed invoice for such reimbursement obligations.

this Section 2.11 or (z) if such other amount is denominated in Pounds Sterling or CHF, the rate applicable to RFR Loans as
provided in paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section 2.11.

Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error) (A) prior
to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to
the Borrower and the affected Lenders in writing by e-mail as promptly as practicable thereafter setting forth in reasonable detail the
basis for such determination and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances giving
rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Eurocurrency
Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Eurocurrency Borrowing
in the applicable Currency or for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective, (B) if such Eurocurrency
Borrowing is requested in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing, (C) if such Eurocurrency
Borrowing or RFR Borrowing is requested in any Agreed Foreign Currency (other than Canadian Dollars), any Borrowing Request
that requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing or RFR Borrowing denominated
in the applicable Currency (other than Canadian Dollars) shall be, at the Borrower’s
option, ineffective or converted to a Borrowing bearing interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency plus
the Applicable Margin; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency cannot be determined, any Borrowing Request that
requests an RFR Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (D) if such Eurocurrency
Borrowing is requested in Canadian Dollars at the CDOR Rate, such Borrowing shall be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated
in Canadian Dollars at the Canadian Prime Rate; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one
Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted; provided further that, in connection with any ABR Borrowing
made pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.12(a), the determination of the Alternate Base Rate shall disregard clause (c) of
the definition thereof. Furthermore, if any Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan
in any Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in
this Section 2.12(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan or
RFR Loan then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no
longer exist, (i) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
to such Loan, such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on
such day, (ii) if such Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan is denominated
in any Agreed Foreign Currency (other than Canadian Dollars), then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
to such Loan, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) bear
interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency plus the Applicable Margin; provided that, if the Administrative
Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable
Agreed Foreign Currency cannot be determined, the Borrower may not make an election under this subclause (A), (B) be prepaid
by the Borrower on such day or (BC)
be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (BC))
shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Loan) on such day (it being
understood and agreed that if the Borrower does not so prepay such Loan on such day by 12:00 noon, Local Time, the Administrative Agent
is authorized to effect such conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan,
as applicable, into an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars), and, in the case of such subclause (BC),
upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to the aforementioned notice
no longer exist and with the Borrower’s consent (which may be given in its sole discretion), such ABR Loan denominated in Dollars
shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Eurocurrency Loan or
RFR Loan, as applicable, denominated in such original Currency (in an amount equal to the Foreign Currency Equivalent of such
Loan) on the day of such notice being given to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent,
or (iii) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Canadian Dollars, then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable to such Loan, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) be
converted by the Administrative Agent to a Eurocurrency Loan where the Eurocurrency Rate is equal to the Canadian Prime Rate.


 


(b)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Hedging Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document”
for purposes of this Section 2.12), if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark
Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a
Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”
for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan
Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent
of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with
clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement
will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting on the fifth (5th)
Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action
or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such
time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each affected Class.


 






    	 	82	 



     


    

 


(c)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph (c), solely with respect
to a Loan denominated in Dollars, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the
Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current
Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings,
without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that,
this clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR
Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition
Event and may do so in its sole discretion (provided that the Administrative Agent’s determination shall be generally consistent
with determinations made for borrowers of syndicated loans denominated in Dollars).


 


(d)            In
connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement
Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments
implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.


 


(e)            The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term
SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation
of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement
of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability
Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of
Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.12, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence
or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will
be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.12.


 


(f)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark
Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBOR) and either (A) any tenor for such
Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative
Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public
statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the
Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove
such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is
subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is
no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement),
then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time
to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(g)            Upon
the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for
a Eurocurrency Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark
Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Eurocurrency
Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans, (y) any request for a Eurocurrency
Borrowing or RFR Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency
(other than Canadian Dollars) shall be ineffective or (z) any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars
shall be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing at the Canadian Prime Rate. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that
a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current
Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore,
if any Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan in any Currency is outstanding
on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant
Rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time
as a Benchmark Replacement for such Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.12, (i) if such Eurocurrency
Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, such Loan shall be converted by the
Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day, (ii) if such Eurocurrency Loan or
RFR Loan is denominated in any Agreed Foreign Currency (other than Canadian Dollars), then such Loan shall, on the last day
of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) bear
interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency plus the Applicable Margin; provided that, if the Administrative
Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable
Agreed Foreign Currency cannot be determined, the Borrower may not make an election under this subclause (A), (B) be prepaid
by the Borrower on such day or (BC)
be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (BC))
shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Loan) on such day (it being
understood and agreed that if the Borrower does not so prepay such Loan on such day by 12:00 noon, Local Time, the Administrative Agent
is authorized to effect such conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan or RFR Loan,
as applicable, into an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars), and, in the case of such subclause
(B), upon any subsequent implementation of a Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Agreed Foreign Currency pursuant to this Section 2.12
and with the Borrower’s consent (which may be given in its sole discretion), such ABR Loan denominated in Dollars shall then be
converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in such original Currency (in an amount
equal to the Foreign Currency Equivalent of such Loan) on the day of such implementation, giving effect to such Benchmark Replacement
in respect of such Agreed Foreign Currency or (iii) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Canadian Dollars,
then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day:
(A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) be converted by the Administrative Agent to a Eurocurrency Loan where the
Eurocurrency Rate is equal to the Canadian Prime Rate.


 






    	 	84	 



     


    

 


SECTION 2.13.     Computation
of Interest. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (a) Eurocurrency Borrowings
in Canadian Dollars, AUD or NZD shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) and (b) EurocurrencyRFR
Borrowings in Pounds Sterling and CHF, and ABR Borrowings, at times when the Alternate
Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted
Eurocurrency Rate, LIBOR, EURIBOR or,
Eurocurrency Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Daily Simple RFR
shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


SECTION 2.14.     Increased
Costs.


 


(a)            If
any Change in Law shall:


 


(i)            impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, compulsory loan, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits
with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the
Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or any Issuing Bank; or


 


(ii)            impose
on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense, affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency
Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank or participation by such Lender therein;


 


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost
(other than costs which are (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Connection Income Taxes or (C) Taxes described in clauses (b) through
(d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) to such Lender of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan
(or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost (other than costs which are Taxes) to such Lender or
such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable
by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, upon the request of such Lender or
such Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered;
provided that no Lender will claim the payment of any of the amounts referred to in this paragraph (a) if not generally claiming
similar compensation from its other similar customers in similar circumstances.


 






    	 	85	 



     


    

 


(b)            Capital
Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital
of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by,
or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that
which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for
such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s
or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements), by an amount deemed to be material
by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, then, upon the request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender
or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing
Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.


 


(c)            Certificates
from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank (x) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the calculation
of the amount or amounts, in Dollars, necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may
be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 and (y) certifying that such Lender or such Issuing
Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, is generally claiming similar compensation from its other similar customers in similar
circumstances, shall be promptly delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however that no Lender
shall be requested to disclose confidential or price sensitive information or any other information, to the extent prohibited by applicable
law. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
10 Business Days after receipt thereof.


 


(d)            Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14
shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that
the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs
or reductions incurred more than three months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the
Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s
intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
is retroactive, then the three-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.


 






    	 	86	 



     


    

 


SECTION 2.15.     Break
Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an
Interest Period therefor (including as a result of the occurrence of any Commitment Increase Date or an Event of Default), (b) the
conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert,
continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (including, in connection with
any Commitment Increase Date, and regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.09(g) and is
revoked in accordance herewith) or (d) the assignment as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19(b) of
any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate
each affected Lender for such Lender’s loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (excluding loss of anticipated profits).
In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined
by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of:


 


(i)            the
amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan denominated in the Currency of
such Loan referred to in clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 2.15 for the period from the date of such payment, conversion,
failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan (or, in the case of a failure to
borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation)
if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for such Currency for such Interest Period,
over


 


(ii)            the
amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount
for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for deposits denominated in such
Currency from other banks in the Eurocurrency market or in the case of any Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency, in the relevant market for such
Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency, in each case, at the commencement of such period.


 


Payments under this Section 2.15 shall be made upon written request
of a Lender delivered to the Borrower not later than 10 Business Days following a payment, conversion, or failure to borrow, convert,
continue or prepay that gives rise to a claim under this Section 2.15 accompanied by a written certificate of such Lender setting
forth in reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of the amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to
this Section 2.15, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown
as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.


 


SECTION 2.16.     Taxes.


 


(a)            Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document
shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable
law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then (i) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholding,
(ii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and
(iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
or withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), the Administrative
Agent, the applicable Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such deductions been made.


 


(b)            Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower shall pay, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse
it for the payment of, any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.


 






    	 	87	 



     


    

 


(c)            Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank for, and within 30
Business Days after written demand therefor, pay the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted
on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such recipient and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A written certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or
an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(d)            Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.


 


(e)            Foreign
Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction
in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall
deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested
by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate.


 


In addition, any applicable Foreign Lender, if requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Foreign
Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.


 


Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the
following is applicable:


 


(i)            duly
completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) or any successor
form claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,


 


(ii)            duly
completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or any successor form certifying that the income receivable pursuant to
this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States,


 






    	 	88	 



     


    

 


(iii)            in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code,
(A) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of
the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of
the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly
completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) (or any successor
form), or


 


(iv)            any
other form including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY as applicable prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption
from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed
by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.


 


(f)            United
States Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), prior to the date on which such Issuing Bank or such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, and at times reasonably requested
by the Borrower, duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any successor form, certificate or documentation provided
it is legally able to do so at the time.


 


(g)            FATCA.
If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such
Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or
1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed
by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with
their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine
the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include
any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 


In addition, each Lender agrees that if any certificate
or documentation previously delivered under this Section 2.16 by such Lender expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect
it shall update such certificate or documentation, provided it is legally able to do so at the time. Each Lender shall promptly notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time the chief tax officer of such Lender becomes aware that it no longer satisfies the
legal requirements to provide any previously delivered form, certificate or documentation to the Borrower (or any other form, certificate
or documentation adopted by the U.S. or other taxing authorities for such purpose).


 






    	 	89	 



     


    

 


(h)            Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good
faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower
has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the
Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such
refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the
amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required
to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event
will the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the
payment of which would place the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in a less favorable net after-Tax position than
the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving
rise to such refund had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any
Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential)
to the Borrower or any other Person.


 


(i)            Survival.
Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or
any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.


 


(j)            Defined
Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.


 


SECTION 2.17.     Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.


 


(a)            Payments
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or
reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except
to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without
set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed
to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made
to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document
and except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15,
2.16 and 9.03, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments
received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder
shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the
case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All amounts owing under this
Agreement (including commitment fees, payments required under Section 2.14, and payments required under Section 2.15 relating
to any Loan denominated in Dollars, but not including principal of, and interest on, any Loan denominated in any Foreign Currency or payments
relating to any such Loan required under Section 2.15 or any reimbursement or cash collateralization of any LC Exposure denominated
in any Foreign Currency, which are payable in such Foreign Currency) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise
provided therein) are payable in Dollars. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of any Loan or
LC Disbursement when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise), the unpaid portion of such
Loan or such LC Disbursement shall, if such Loan or such LC Disbursement is not denominated in Dollars, automatically be redenominated
in Dollars on the due date thereof (or, if such due date is a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, on the last
day of such Interest Period) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such principal
shall be payable on demand; and if the Borrower shall fail to pay any interest on any Loan or LC Disbursement that is not denominated
in Dollars, such interest shall automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the due date therefor (or, if such due date is a day other
than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, on the last day of such Interest Period) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent
thereof on the date of such redenomination and such interest shall be payable on demand.

(b)            Application
of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully
all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees of a Class then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
(i) first, to pay interest and fees of such Class then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance
with the amounts of interest and fees of such Class then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed
LC Disbursements of such Class then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
and unreimbursed LC Disbursements of such Class then due to such parties.


 


(c)            Pro
Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Borrowing of a Class shall be made from the Lenders
of such Class, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments of a Class under Section 2.07 shall be applied
to the respective Commitments of the Lenders of such Class, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments of such
Class; (ii) each Borrowing of a Class shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders of such Class according to the amounts
of their respective Commitments of such Class (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans of such Class that
are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment of commitment fees
under Section 2.10 shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata according to the average daily unutilized amounts of their
respective Commitments; (iv) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans of a Class by the Borrower shall be made for the
account of the Lenders of such Class pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans of such Class held
by them; and (v) each payment of interest on Loans of a Class by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders of
such Class pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to such Lenders.


 






    	 	91	 



     


    

 


(d)            Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender of a Class shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements within its Class resulting
in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and
accrued interest thereon of such Class then due than the proportion received by any other Lender of such Class, then the Lender receiving
such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of
other Lenders of such Class to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders of such
Class ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations
in LC Disbursements of such Class; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment
giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery,
without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (d) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment
of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to
the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (d) shall apply). The Borrower
consents to the foregoing, and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. For the avoidance of doubt, the
Borrower may make a Borrowing under the Dollar Commitments or Multicurrency Commitments (if otherwise permitted hereunder) and may use
the proceeds of such Borrowing (x) with Dollar Commitments to prepay the Multicurrency Loans (without making a ratable prepayment
of the Dollar Loans) or (y) with Multicurrency Commitments to prepay the Dollar Loans (without making a ratable payment to the Multicurrency
Loans).


 


(e)            Presumptions
of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is
due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment,
the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon
such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has
not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including
the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective
Rate.


 


(f)            Certain
Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e),
2.05(b) or 2.17(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply
any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations
under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.18.     Defaulting
Lenders.


 


Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting
Lender:


 


(a)            commitment
fees pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender to
the extent and during the period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender;


 


(b)            the
Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether two-thirds of the Lenders,
two-thirds of the Lenders of a Class, the Required Lenders or the Required Lenders of a Class have taken or may take any action hereunder
or under any other Loan Documents (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that,
for the avoidance of doubt, any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders (or all Lenders of a Class) or
each affected Lender (if applicable to such Defaulting Lender), including as set forth in Section 9.02(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or
(v), shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;


 


(c)            if
any LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:


 


(i)            all
or any part of such LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders holding Commitments of the same Class as such
Defaulting Lender in accordance with their respective Applicable Multicurrency Percentages or Applicable Dollar Percentages, as applicable,
but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures of such Class plus such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure of such Class does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments of such Class and
(y) no non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure of such Class will exceed such Lender’s Commitment of such
Class;


 


(ii)            if
the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice
to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, within three Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent
cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above)
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;


 


(iii)            if
the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the
Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b) with respect to such LC
Exposure during the period such LC Exposure is cash collateralized;


 


(iv)            if
the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders of the same Class as such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above,
then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall be adjusted in accordance
with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Multicurrency Percentages or Applicable Dollar Percentages, as applicable, in effect
immediately after giving effect to such reallocation;


 






    	 	93	 



     


    

 


(v)            if
any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.18(c), then,
without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have
been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized
by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.10(b) with respect to such LC Exposure shall be payable
to the applicable Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and


 


(vi)            no
reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from
that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s
increased exposure following such reallocation; and


 


(d)            so
long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank of the same Class as such Defaulting Lender shall be required to issue,
amend or increase any Letter of Credit of such Class, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the
Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders of such Class and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with
Section 2.18(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting
Lenders of such Class in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).


 


In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower
and the Issuing Banks (with respect to any Issuing Bank, only to the extent that such Issuing Bank acts in such capacity under the same
Class of Commitments held by a Defaulting Lender) each agrees in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters
that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then, on the date of such agreement, such Lender shall no longer be deemed a Defaulting
Lender, the Borrower shall no longer be required to cash collateralize any portion of such Lender’s LC Exposure cash collateralized
pursuant to Section 2.18(c)(ii) above and the LC Exposure of the Lenders of the affected Class shall be readjusted to reflect
the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment of such Class and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par the portion of the
Loans of the other Lenders of such Class as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to
hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Multicurrency Percentage or Applicable Dollar Percentage, as applicable, in effect immediately
after giving effect to such agreement.


 


SECTION 2.19.     Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.


 


(a)            Designation
of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay
any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such
Lender shall at the request of the Borrower use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its
Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable
judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14
or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any cost or expense not required to be
reimbursed by the Borrower and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.


 






    	 	94	 



     


    

 


(b)            Replacement
of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount
to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender or is a non-consenting Lender (as provided in Section 9.02(d)), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon
notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and
subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant
to Section 2.14 and Section 2.16) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall
assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the
Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing
Banks), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of
an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees
and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts then due and payable), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting
from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the case of any assignment as a result of a non-consenting Lender
(that the Borrower is permitted to replace as provided in Section 9.02(d)), the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable
amendment, waiver or consent. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result
of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.


 


(c)            Defaulting
Lender. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e), 2.05 or 9.03(c),
then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks to
satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold
any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under
such Sections; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in
its discretion.

SECTION 2.20.     Maximum
Rate.


 


Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest
on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum
Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan, the rate of interest
payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all related Charges, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. To the extent lawful,
the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of a Loan, but were not payable as a result of the operation of this
Section 2.20, shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be
increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective
Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Authority now pending against or, to the knowledge of any Financial Officer, threatened in writing against or affecting the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined,
would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that directly involve
this Agreement or the Transactions.


 


SECTION 3.06.     Compliance
with Laws and Agreements. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any
Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property,
except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.


 


SECTION 3.07.     Anti-Corruption
Laws and Sanctions. The Borrower, or any one or more Affiliates on its behalf, has implemented and maintains in effect policies and
procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents

and (b) to the knowledge of the Borrower, its directors and agents, are in compliance in all material respects with Anti-Corruption

being designated as a Sanctioned Person. None of (x) the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors,
officers or employees, or (y) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case,
that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person. No Transaction
to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is subject will violate any Anti-Corruption Law or applicable Sanctions.


 






    	 	97	 



     


    

 


SECTION 3.08.     Taxes.
Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all material Tax returns and reports required to have
been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all material Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Person, has set aside on its books adequate reserves or (b) to

SECTION 3.09.     ERISA.
No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, would reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


SECTION 3.10.     Disclosure.
None of the written reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information (other than projections, other forward looking
information, information of a general economic or industry specific nature or information relating to third parties) furnished by or on
behalf of the Borrower to the Lenders in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or delivered hereunder
or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), when taken as a whole, contains any material misstatement
of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading at the time made; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower
represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed in good faith to be reasonable at the
time of the preparation thereof (it being understood that projections are subject to significant and inherent uncertainties and contingencies
which may be outside of the Borrower’s control and that no assurance can be given that projections will be realized, and are therefore
not to be viewed as fact, and that actual results for the periods covered by projections may differ from the projected results set forth
in such projections and that such differences may be material).


 


SECTION 3.11.     Investment
Company Act; Margin Regulations.


 


(a)            Status

development company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act and qualifies as a RIC.


 


(b)            Compliance
with Investment Company Act. The business and other activities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including the making of the Loans
and issuance of Letters of Credit to the Borrower hereunder, the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof by the Borrower and
the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents do not result in a material violation or material breach of the
applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act or any rules, regulations or orders issued by the SEC thereunder, in each case, that
are applicable to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.


 


(c)            Investment
Policies. The Borrower is in compliance with all written investment policies, restrictions and limitations for the Borrower delivered
(to the extent not otherwise publicly filed with the SEC) to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date (as such investment policies have
been amended, modified or supplemented in a manner not prohibited by clause (r) of Article VII, the “Investment Policies”),
except to the extent that the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 






    	 	98	 



     


    

 


(d)            Use
of Credit. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the
business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying Margin Stock, and no part
of the proceeds of any extension of credit hereunder will be used to buy or carry any Margin Stock in violation of Regulation U.


 


SECTION 3.12.     Material
Agreements and Liens.


 


(a)            Material
Agreements. Part A of Schedule II is a complete and correct list of each credit agreement, loan agreement, indenture, note purchase
agreement, guarantee, letter of credit or other arrangement providing for or otherwise relating to any Indebtedness for borrowed money
or any extension of credit (or commitment for any extension of credit) to, or guarantee for borrowed money by, the Borrower or any other
Obligor outstanding on the Effective Date (in each case, other than (x) Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document and
(y) any such agreement or arrangement that is solely between or among two (2) or more Obligors), and the aggregate principal
or face amount outstanding or that is or may become outstanding under each such arrangement, in each case as of the Effective Date, is
correctly described in Part A of Schedule II.


 


(b)            Liens.
Part B of Schedule II is a complete and correct list of each Lien securing Indebtedness of any Person outstanding on the Effective
Date (other than Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document) covering any property of the Borrower or any other Obligor,
and the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness secured (or that may be secured) by each such Lien and the property covered by
each such Lien as of the Effective Date is correctly described in Part B of Schedule II.


 


SECTION 3.13.     Subsidiaries

SECTION 5.08.     Certain
Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries; Further Assurances.


 


(a)            Subsidiary
Guarantors. In the event that (i) any Obligor shall form or acquire any new Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Asset
or Immaterial Subsidiary) or (ii) any Immaterial Subsidiary of such Obligor that is a Domestic Subsidiary shall cease to be an Immaterial
Subsidiary pursuant to the definition thereof (in which case such Person shall be deemed to be a “new” Domestic Subsidiary
for purposes of this Section 5.08 as of such date), the Borrower or such Obligor will cause such Subsidiary to become a “Subsidiary
Guarantor” within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as shall be reasonably agreed by the Administrative Agent) following such
Person becoming a new Domestic Subsidiary (and, thereby, an “Obligor”) under a Guarantee Assumption Agreement and to deliver
such proof of corporate or other action, incumbency of officers, opinions of counsel (if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent)
and other documents as is consistent with those delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.01 upon the Effective Date or as
the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may elect to cause any of its Excluded
Assets or Immaterial Subsidiaries to become an Obligor by causing such Person to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and executing and delivering
a Guarantee Assumption Agreement and other deliverables as required for a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 5.08(a) (at
which point such Person shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor and shall no longer be an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary).


 


(b)            Ownership
of Subsidiaries. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall be necessary
to ensure that each of its Subsidiaries is a wholly owned Subsidiary; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any transaction permitted
under Section 6.03 or 6.04, so long as immediately after giving effect to such permitted transaction each of the remaining Subsidiaries
is a wholly-owned Subsidiary.


 


(c)            Further
Assurances. The Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to, take such action from time to time (including filing appropriate
Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements and other instruments)
as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement, including:


 


(i)            to
create, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (and any Affiliate thereof that is a party to any Hedging Agreement
entered into with such Obligor) and the holders of any Other Secured Indebtedness, perfected security interests and Liens in the Collateral;
provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents; provided
further, that in the case of any Collateral consisting of voting stock of any Controlled Foreign Corporation, such security interest
shall be limited to 65% of the issued and outstanding voting stock of such Controlled Foreign Corporation,


 


(ii)            subject
to Section 5.14 hereof and Sections 7.01 and 7.04 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement, to cause any bank or securities intermediary
(within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) to enter into such arrangements with the Collateral Agent as shall be appropriate
in order that the Collateral Agent has “control” over each deposit account or securities account of the Obligors (in each
case, other than any Excluded Accounts (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement)) and in that connection, the Borrower agrees
to cause all cash and other proceeds of Portfolio Investments received by any Obligor to be promptly deposited into such an account (or
otherwise delivered to, or registered in the name of, the Collateral Agent) and, until such deposit, delivery or registration such cash
and other proceeds shall be held in trust by the Borrower for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any
other funds of such Obligor, any Designated Subsidiary or any other Person (including with any money or financial assets of any Obligor
in its capacity as “servicer” for any such Designated Subsidiary or any other Excluded Assets, or any money or financial assets
of any Excluded Asset),


 






    	 	109	 



     


    

 


(iii)            in
the case of any portfolio investment held by an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary, including any cash collection related thereto,
ensure that such portfolio investment shall not be held in the account of any Obligor subject to a control agreement among such Obligor,
the Collateral Agent and the Custodian delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,


 


(iv)            in
the case of any Portfolio Investment consisting of a Bank Loan that does not constitute all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower
under the relevant underlying loan documents and an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary holds any interest in the loans or other
extensions of credit under such loan documents, (x) cause such Excluded Asset or such Immaterial Subsidiary to be party to such underlying
loan documents as a “lender” having a direct interest (or a participation; provided that any participation acquired from an
Obligor shall give such Excluded Asset or such Immaterial Subsidiary the right to elevate such participation to an assignment at any time
in its sole discretion, which right shall be exercised no later than 90 days after the acquisition thereof) in such underlying loan documents
and the extensions of credit thereunder and (y) ensure that, subject to Section 5.08(c)(v) below, all amounts owing to
such Obligor or such Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are remitted by such
borrower or obligated party (or the applicable administrative agents, collateral agents or equivalent Person) directly to the accounts
of such Obligor, such Excluded Asset and such Immaterial Subsidiary, respectively,


 


(v)            in
the event that any Obligor, Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary is acting as an agent or administrative agent (or analogous capacity)
under any loan documents with respect to any Bank Loan and such Obligor, Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary, as applicable, does
not hold all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower under the relevant underlying loan documents, ensure that all funds held
by such Obligor, Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary, as applicable, in such capacity as agent or administrative agent are segregated
from all other funds of such Obligor, Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary, as applicable, and are clearly identified as being held
in an agency capacity, and


 


(vi)            cause
all credit or loan agreements, any notes and all assignment and assumption agreements, as applicable, relating to any Portfolio Investment
constituting part of the Collateral to be held by (x) the Collateral Agent, (y) a Custodian pursuant to the terms of the applicable
Custodian Agreement, or (z) pursuant to an appropriate intercreditor agreement, so long as such Custodian has agreed to grant access
to such loan and other documents to the Administrative Agent pursuant to an access or similar agreement between the Borrower and such
Custodian in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that the Borrower’s obligation to
deliver underlying documentation may be satisfied by delivery of copies of such agreements.


 






    	 	110	 



     


    

 


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) nothing
contained herein shall prevent an Obligor from having a Participation Interest in a portfolio investment held by an Excluded Asset and
(2) if any instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate held by the Custodian is destroyed or lost not as a result
of any action of such Obligor, then any original of such instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate shall be deemed
held by the Custodian for all purposes hereunder; provided that, when such Obligor has actual knowledge of any such destroyed or
lost instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate, it shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from
the underlying borrower, and deliver to the Custodian, a replacement instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate.


 


(d)            CLO
Depositor Direction Letters. In the event that any Obligor shall own, form or acquire any CLO Depositor, such Obligor shall cause
such CLO Depositor to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a CLO Depositor Direction Letter within thirty (30) days (or such
longer period as shall be reasonably agreed by the Administrative Agent) following such Person becoming a CLO Depositor.


 


SECTION 5.09.     Use
of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of its Loans and the issuances of Letters of Credit only for general corporate purposes
of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, (a) repaying outstanding Indebtedness not prohibited by the
Loan Documents, (b) paying fees and expenses paid or payable in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (c) making
other distributions, contributions and investments, and the acquisition and funding (either directly or through one (1) or more of
its wholly-owned Subsidiaries) of leveraged loans, mezzanine loans, high yield securities, convertible securities, preferred stock, common
stock, Hedging Agreements and other Portfolio Investments; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any
responsibility as to the use of any of such proceeds. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used in violation
of Sanctions or any other applicable law or, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying
or carrying any Margin Stock (except as set forth in Section 3.11(d)). Upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower shall furnish
to such Lender a statement in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, as applicable, referred to in
Regulation U. The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that
its Subsidiaries and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Borrowing or
Letter of Credit (A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or
anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating
any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, in violation of any applicable Sanctions, or in any Sanctioned
Country, to the extent such activities, businesses or transactions would be prohibited by Sanctions if conducted by a corporation incorporated
in the United States, or (C) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.


 






    	 	111	 



     


    

 


SECTION 5.10.     Status
of RIC and BDC. The Borrower shall at all times maintain its status as a RIC under the Code, and as a “business development
company” under the Investment Company Act.


 


SECTION 5.11.     Investment
and Valuation Policies. The Borrower shall promptly advise the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of any material change in either
its Investment Policies or Valuation Policy.


 


SECTION 5.12.     Portfolio
Valuation and Diversification, Etc.


 


(a)            Industry
Classification Groups. For purposes of this Agreement, the Borrower shall assign each Portfolio Investment to an Industry Classification
Group. To the extent that the Borrower reasonably determines that any Portfolio Investment is not adequately correlated with the risks
of other Portfolio Investments in an Industry Classification Group, such Portfolio Investment may be assigned by the Borrower to an Industry
Classification Group that is more closely correlated to such Portfolio Investment. In the absence of adequate correlation, the Borrower
shall be permitted, upon notice to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender to create up to three additional Industry
Classification Groups for purposes of this Agreement. Furthermore, for Portfolio Investments in the Software industry, the Borrower may
assign such Portfolio Investment to the Industry Classification Group based on the predominant end-user of the applicable issuer’s
product.


 


(b)            Portfolio
Valuation Etc.


 


(i)            Settlement
Date Basis. For purposes of this Agreement, all determinations of whether an investment is to be included as a Portfolio Investment
shall be determined on a settlement date basis (meaning that any investment that has been purchased will not be treated as a Portfolio
Investment until such purchase has settled, and any Portfolio Investment which has been sold will not be excluded as a Portfolio Investment
until such sale has settled); provided that no such investment shall be included as a Portfolio Investment to the extent it has not been
paid for in full.


 






    	 	112	 



     


    

 


(ii)            Determination
of Values. The Borrower will conduct reviews of the value to be assigned to each of its Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing
Base as follows:


 


(A)            Quoted
Investments—External Review. With respect to Portfolio Investments (including Cash Equivalents) traded in an active and orderly
market for which market quotations are readily available, in each case, as determined by the Borrower (“Quoted Investments”),
the Borrower shall, not less frequently than once each calendar week, determine the market value of such Quoted Investments which shall,
in each case, be determined in accordance with one of the following methodologies (as selected by the Borrower):


 


(w)            in
the case of public and 144A securities, the average of the bid prices as determined by at least two Approved Dealers selected by
the Borrower,


 


(x)            in
the case of Bank Loans, the average of the bid prices as determined by at least two Approved Dealers or an Approved Pricing Service which
makes reference to at least two Approved Dealers with respect to such Bank Loans,


 


(y)            in
the case of any Quoted Investment traded on an exchange, the closing price for such Portfolio Investment most recently posted on such
exchange, and


 


(z)            in
the case of any other Quoted Investment, the fair market value thereof as determined by an Approved Pricing Service; and


 


(B)            Unquoted
Investments—External Review. With respect to Portfolio Investments not traded in an active and orderly market or for which market
quotations are not readily available, in each case, as determined by the Borrower (“Unquoted Investments”), the Borrower
shall determine the fair value of such Unquoted Investments quarterly in a manner consistent with its Valuation Policy (except as otherwise
required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, but in all cases using fair value principles), and shall obtain the valuation of
at least 25% by value of all Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base using the assistance of an Approved Third-Party
Appraiser; provided, the Borrower may rely on the valuations of the Unquoted Investments obtained pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(iii)(A) in
lieu of obtaining the valuations pursuant to this Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B); provided further that, in each case, valuations
of at least 25% of all Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base have been obtained as of the relevant Scheduled Testing Date.
The Administrative Agent and each Lender acknowledges that it may be required to enter into a non-reliance letter, confidentiality agreement
or similar agreement requested or required by a proposed appraiser to allow the Administrative Agent or such Lender to review any written
valuation report. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, there shall be no requirement to disclose any portion of
any report submitted by the Approved Third-Party Appraiser without such a non-reliance letter if such non-reliance letter is required
by such Approved Third-Party Appraiser as a condition to such disclosure.


 


(C)            Internal
Review. The Borrower shall conduct an internal review of the aggregate value of the Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing
Base, at least once each calendar week, which shall take into account any event of which the Borrower has knowledge that materially adversely
affects the aggregate value of such Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base. If, based upon such weekly internal review,
the Borrower determines that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then the Borrower shall, within five Business Days as provided in Section 5.01(e),
deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting the new amount of the Borrowing Base and shall take the actions, and make the payments
and prepayments on the Loans (and/or provide cover for Letters of Credit), all as more specifically set forth in Section 2.09(c).


 






    	 	113	 



     


    

 


(D)            Failure
to Determine Values. If the Borrower shall fail to determine the value of any Portfolio Investment as at any date pursuant to the
requirements (but subject to the exclusions) of the foregoing subclauses (A) through (C), the “Value” of such Portfolio
Investment as at such date shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of the Borrowing Base.


 


provided that, the Borrower shall value substantially all Portfolio
Investments pursuant to the foregoing requirements no less frequently than once in any rolling twelve-month period.


 


(iii)            Scheduled
Testing of Values.


 


(A)            Each
February 28, May 31, August 31 and November 30 of each calendar year, commencing on May 31, 2021 (or such other
dates as are agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, but in no event less frequently than once per calendar quarter, each
a “Valuation Testing Date”), the Administrative Agent through an Independent Valuation Provider will test the values
determined, or required to be determined, pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) of those Unquoted Investments (x) included in
the Borrowing Base as of such Valuation Testing Date or at any time between such Valuation Testing Date and the immediately preceding
Valuation Testing Date, in each case, unless such Portfolio Investment is no longer in the Collateral Pool pursuant to a transaction permitted
hereunder and (y) selected by the Administrative Agent; provided, that the aggregate value of such Unquoted Investments tested
on any Valuation Testing Date will be equal to the Tested Amount (as defined below) (or as near thereto as reasonably practical). For
the avoidance of doubt, Unquoted Investments that are part of the Collateral but not included in the Borrowing Base as of the applicable
Valuation Testing Date or at any time between the applicable Valuation Testing Date and the immediately preceding Valuation Testing Date
(unless such Portfolio Investment is no longer in the Collateral Pool pursuant to a transaction permitted hereunder) shall not be subject
to testing under this Section 5.12(b)(iii).


 


(B)            For
purposes of this Agreement, the “Tested Amount” shall be equal to the greater of: (i) an amount equal to (y) 125%
of the Covered Debt Amount (as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date) minus (z) the sum of the values of all Cash and all Quoted
Investments included in the Borrowing Base (as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date) and (ii) 10% of the aggregate value of all
Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base (as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date); provided, however, in
no event shall more than 25% (or, if clause (ii) applies, 10%, or as near thereto as reasonably practicable) of the aggregate value
of the Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base be tested by the Independent Valuation Provider in respect of any applicable
Valuation Testing Date. If the Value of the Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base is less than the “Tested Amount”
as calculated in the immediately preceding sentence, then the “Tested Amount” shall equal the Value of such Unquoted Investments.


 






    	 	114	 



     


    

 



 


(C)            With
respect to any Unquoted Investment, if the value of such Unquoted Investment determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is not
more than the lesser of (1) five (5) points more than the midpoint of the valuation range (expressed as a percentage of par)
provided by the Independent Valuation Provider (provided that the value of such Unquoted Investment is customarily quoted as a percentage
of par, otherwise this clause (1) shall not be applicable) and (2) 110% of the midpoint of the valuation range provided by the
Independent Valuation Provider, then the value for such Unquoted Investment determined in accordance with Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall
continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement. If the value of any Unquoted Investment determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is more than the lesser of the values set forth in clause (C)(1) and (2) (to the extent applicable),
then for such Unquoted Investment, the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement shall become the least of (x) the highest
value of the valuation range provided by the Independent Valuation Provider, (y) five (5) points more than the midpoint of the
valuation range (expressed as a percentage of par) provided by the Independent Valuation Provider (provided that the value of such Unquoted
Investment is customarily quoted as a percentage of par, otherwise this clause (y) shall not be applicable) and (z) 110% of
the midpoint of the valuation range provided by the Independent Valuation Provider; provided that, if a Portfolio Investment (including,
for the avoidance of doubt, a Participation Interest) is acquired during a fiscal quarter and until such time as the Value is obtained
with respect to such Portfolio Investment pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(A), 5.12(b)(ii)(B) or 5.12(b)(iii), the “Value”
of such Portfolio Investment shall be deemed to be equal to the lower of (x) the value of such Portfolio Investment determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) and (y) the cost of such Unquoted Investment.


 


(iv)            Supplemental
Testing of Values.


 


(A)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Administrative Agent individually or at the request of the Required Lenders, shall, at any time, have the right to
request, in its reasonable discretion, any Portfolio Investment included in the Borrowing Base with a value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) to
be independently tested by the Independent Valuation Provider. There shall be no limit on the number of such tests that may be requested
by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion. If (x) the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is
less than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause, then the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall
continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement and (y) if the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is
greater than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause and the difference between such values
is: (1) less than or equal to 5% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the value determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall continue to be used as the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this
Agreement; (2) greater than 5% and less than or equal to 20% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii),
then the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement shall become the average of the value determined
pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) and the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause; and
(3) greater than 20% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent, shall retain an additional third-party appraiser and, upon the completion of such appraisal, the “Value” of such Portfolio
Investment for purposes of this Agreement shall become the average of the three (3) valuations (with the value of the Independent
Valuation Provider determined pursuant to this clause to be used as the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment until the third
value is obtained). For the avoidance of doubt, Portfolio Investments that are part of the Collateral but not included in the Borrowing
Base as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date or at any time between the applicable Valuation Testing Date and the immediately preceding
Valuation Testing Date (unless such Portfolio Investment is no longer in the Collateral Pool pursuant to a transaction permitted hereunder)
shall not be subject to testing under this Section 5.12(b)(iv).


 






    	 	115	 



     


    

 


(B)            Except
as otherwise provided herein, the Value of any Portfolio Investment for which the Independent Valuation Provider’s value is used
shall be the midpoint of the range (if any) determined by the Independent Valuation Provider. The Independent Valuation Provider shall
apply a recognized valuation methodology that is commonly accepted by the business development company industry for valuing Portfolio
Investments of the type being valued and held by the Obligors.


 


(C)            For
the avoidance of doubt, the Value of any Portfolio Investment determined in accordance with this Section 5.12 shall be the Value
of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement until a new Value for such Portfolio Investment is subsequently determined
in accordance with this Section 5.12.


 


(D)            The
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs of any valuation reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent, under this Section 5.12
shall be at the expense of the Borrower; provided that the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse valuation costs incurred by
the Administrative Agent, pursuant to this Section 5.12(b)(iv) shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the greater
of (x) $200,000 and (y) 0.05% of the total Commitments for any 12-month period.


 


(E)            In
addition, the values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider shall be deemed to be “Information” hereunder and subject
to Section 9.13 hereof.


 


(F)            The
Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of the final results of any valuation performed by the Independent Valuation Provider or an
Approved Third-Party Appraiser to any Lender promptly upon such Lender’s request, except to the extent that such recipient has not
executed and delivered a customary and reasonable non-reliance letter, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement requested or required
by such Independent Valuation Provider or Approved Third-Party Appraiser, as applicable.


 






    	 	116	 



     


    

 


(v)            For
the avoidance of doubt, any Values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to Sections 5.12(b)(iii) and (iv) shall
only be required to be used for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base and shall not be required to be utilized by the Borrower for
any other purpose, including, without limitation, the delivery of financial statements or valuations required under ASC 820 or the Investment
Company Act.


 


(vi)            The
Independent Valuation Provider shall be instructed to conduct its tests in a manner not disruptive in any material respect to the business
of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of its receipt of the final results of any valuation performed by
the Independent Valuation Provider promptly upon its receipt thereof and shall provide a copy of such results and the related report to
the Borrower promptly upon the Borrower’s request.


 


(c)            Investment
Company Diversification Requirements. The Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries (other than Subsidiaries that are exempt
from the Investment Company Act) at all times to comply in all material respects with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements
set forth in the Investment Company Act applicable to business development companies. The Borrower will at all times, subject to applicable
grace or cure periods set forth in the Code, comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Code
applicable to RICs.


 


(d)            Participation
Interests. The Value attributable to any Participation Interest shall be the Value determined with respect to the underlying portfolio
investment related to such Participation Interest in accordance with this Section 5.12, provided any participation interest
that does not satisfy the definition of Participation Interest shall have a Value of zero for purposes of this Agreement.


 


SECTION 5.13.        Calculation
of Borrowing Base. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Borrowing Base” shall be determined, as at any date of
determination, as the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (x) the Value of each Portfolio Investment in the Collateral Pool
to the extent the Borrower elects to include such Portfolio Investment in the Borrowing Base by (y) the applicable Advance Rate,
provided that:


 


(a)            if,
as of such date, the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is (i) greater than or equal to 2.00:1.00, the Advance Rate applicable to that
portion of the aggregate Value of the Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base of all issuers in a consolidated group of corporations
or other entities in accordance with GAAP exceeding 6% of the aggregate Value of all Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base,
shall be 50% of the otherwise applicable Advance Rate; (ii) less than 2.00:1.00 and greater than or equal to 1.75:1.00, the Advance
Rate applicable to that portion of the aggregate Value of the Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base of all issuers in a
consolidated group of corporations or other entities in accordance with GAAP exceeding 5% of the aggregate Value of all Portfolio Investments
included in the Borrowing Base, shall be 50% of the otherwise applicable Advance Rate; or (iii) less than 1.75:1.00, the Advance
Rate applicable to that portion of the aggregate Value of the Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base of all issuers in a
consolidated group of corporations or other entities in accordance with GAAP exceeding 4% of the aggregate Value of all Portfolio Investments

to the Portfolio Investments in a single Industry Classification Group from time to time designated by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to this clause (i), such 25% figure shall be increased to 30% and, accordingly, only to the extent that the aggregate Value
of the Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base in such single Industry Classification Group exceeds 30% of the aggregate
Value of all Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base shall the Advance Rate applicable to such excess portion be 0%; (ii) less
than 2.00:1.00 and greater than or equal to 1.75:1.00, the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the aggregate Value of the Portfolio
Investments included in the Borrowing Base in any single Industry Classification Group that exceeds 20% of the aggregate Value of all

No Portfolio Investment may be included in the Borrowing
Base until such time as such Portfolio Investment has been Delivered (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) to the Collateral
Agent, and then only for so long as such Portfolio Investment continues to be Delivered as contemplated therein; provided that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the case of any Portfolio Investment in which the Collateral Agent has a first-priority perfected (other than, for a
period of up to 7 days (or such longer period up to sixty (60) days as the Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion), customary
rights of setoff, banker’s lien, security interest or other like right upon securities accounts in which such Portfolio Investments
are held) security interest pursuant to a valid Uniform Commercial Code filing, such Portfolio Investment may be included in the Borrowing
Base so long as all remaining actions to complete “Delivery” are satisfied in full within 7 days of such inclusion (or such
longer period up to sixty (60) days as the Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the failure to Deliver any Portfolio Investment or other Collateral shall not be a Default
or Event of Default, except for any failure that would constitute an Event of Default under clause (p) of Article VII. Voting

any other such Advance Rate reductions and (b) to the extent the Borrowing Base is required to be reduced to comply with this Section 5.13,
the Borrower shall be permitted to choose the Portfolio Investments to be excluded from the Borrowing Base to effect such reduction. For
purposes of determining the portfolio limitations above, all issuers of Portfolio Investments that are Affiliates of one another shall
be treated as a single issuer (unless (a) such issuers are Affiliates of one another solely because they are under the common Control
of the same private equity sponsor or similar sponsor or (b) otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion).

intended to be indicative of the traditional investment types. All determinations of whether a particular Portfolio Investment belongs
to one category or another shall be made by the Borrower on a consistent basis with the foregoing.


 


“Bank Loans” means debt obligations
(including, without limitation, term loans, revolving loans, debtor-in-possession financings, the funded and unfunded portion of revolving
credit lines and letter of credit facilities and other similar loans and investments including interim loans, bridge loans and senior
subordinated loans) which are generally documented under documentation substantially similar to documents used under a syndicated loan
or credit facility or pursuant to any loan agreement, note purchase agreement or other similar financing arrangement facility, whether
or not syndicated.


 


“Bankruptcy Code” means the United
States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq.


 






    	 	121

means any and all shares of corporate stock (however designated) of, and any and all other equity interests and participations representing
ownership interests (including membership interests and limited liability company interests) in, such Person.


 


“Cash” has the meaning assigned
to such term in Section 1.01 of this Agreement.


 


“Cash Equivalents” has the meaning
assigned to such term in Section 1.01 of this Agreement.


 


“Cash Pay Bank Loans” means First
Lien Bank Loans, First Lien Unitranche Bank Loans, First Lien Last Out Bank Loans, Late-Stage Loans and Second Lien Bank Loans as to which,

floating rate (or, in each case, the replacement rate) per annum and (b) 3.00% per annum is payable for the most recent payment date
(which shall be at least quarterly).


 


“First Lien Bank Loan” means a

respective borrower and guarantors obligated in respect thereof; provided that any First Lien Bank Loan that is also a First Lien Unitranche
Bank Loan shall be treated for purposes of determining the applicable Advance Rate as a First Lien Unitranche Bank Loan; provided further
that any First Lien Bank Loan that is also a First Lien Last Out Bank Loan shall be treated for purposes of determining the applicable
Advance Rate as a First Lien Last Out Bank Loan; provided further that any First Lien Bank Loan that is also a Late-Stage Loan shall be
treated for purposes of determining the applicable Advance Rate as a Late-Stage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that,
and only for so long as, any Permitted Prior Working Capital Lien exceeds the amount permitted under clause (c) of the definition
thereof, an Obligor’s investment in such applicable Bank Loan shall be treated as a Second Lien Bank Loan for purposes of determining
the applicable Advance Rate for such Portfolio Investment under this Agreement.


 


“First Lien Last Out Bank Loan”
means a Bank Loan that is a First Lien Bank Loan, a portion of which is, in effect, subject to debt subordination and superpriority rights
of other lenders following an event of default (such portion, a “last out” portion); provided, that the aggregate principal
amount of the “last out” portion of such Bank Loan is at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of any “first out”
portion of such Bank Loan; provided, further that (other than for a Late-Stage Loan) the underlying obligor with respect to such Bank
Loan shall have a ratio of first lien debt (including the “first out” portion of such Bank Loan, but excluding the “last
out” portion of such Bank Loan) to EBITDA that does not exceed 3.25:1.00 and a ratio of aggregate first lien debt (including both
the “first out” portion and the “last out” portion of such Bank Loan) to EBITDA that does not exceed 5.25:1.00.
An Obligor’s investment in the “last out” portion of a First Lien Last Out Bank Loan shall be treated as a First Lien
Last Out Bank Loan for purposes of determining the applicable Advance Rate for such Portfolio Investment under this Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, an Obligor’s investment in the portion of such Bank Loan that is not the last out portion (the “first
out” portion) shall be treated as a First Lien Bank Loan for purposes of determining the applicable Advance Rate for such Portfolio
Investment under this Agreement and whether such Portfolio Investment constitutes a “Senior Investment” under this Agreement,
and an Obligor’s investment in any “last out” portion of a First Lien Bank Loan that does not meet the foregoing criteria
shall be treated as a Second Lien Bank Loan for purposes of determining the applicable Advance Rate for such Portfolio Investment under
this Agreement and whether such Portfolio Investment constitutes a “Senior Investment” under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 6.03:


 


(a)            any
Subsidiary Guarantor may merge or consolidate with, or acquire all or any assets of, any other Person (other than the Borrower) so long
as, if any such transaction involves a wholly owned Subsidiary Guarantor, the wholly owned Subsidiary Guarantor shall be the continuing
or surviving corporation or such other Person that is the continuing or surviving entity in such transaction becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor
and expressly assumes, in writing, all the obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Loan Documents;


 


(b)            any
Obligor may sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of its assets (upon voluntary liquidation or otherwise) to the Borrower
or any wholly owned Subsidiary Guarantor of the Borrower;


 


(c)            the
ownership or economic interests of any Subsidiary of any Obligor may be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of (including by way of
consolidation or merger) (i) to the Borrower or any wholly owned Subsidiary Guarantor of the Borrower or (ii) so long as such
transaction results in an Obligor receiving the proceeds of such disposition, to any other Person, provided that in the case of this clause
(ii) if such Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Guarantor or holds any Portfolio Investments, immediately after giving effect to any Concurrent
Transactions (A) either (1) the amount of any excess availability under the Borrowing Base immediately prior to such disposition
is not diminished as a result of such disposition to such other Person or (2) the Adjusted Gross Borrowing Base immediately after
giving effect to such disposition is at least 110% of the Covered Debt Amount and (B) the Covered Debt Amount does not exceed the
Borrowing Base; provided that sales of the ownership or economic interests of any Subsidiary that is an Excluded Asset to a Subsidiary
that is not an Obligor shall be subject to clause (i) below;


 


(d)            the
Obligors may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Portfolio Investments (other than the ownership or economic interests in any Excluded
Asset), to an Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary so long as, immediately after giving effect to such sale, transfer or disposition
and any Concurrent Transactions, (i) the Covered Debt Amount does not exceed the Borrowing Base and (ii) either (x) the
amount of any excess availability under the Borrowing Base immediately prior to such sale, transfer or disposition is not diminished as
a result of such release or (y) the Adjusted Gross Borrowing Base is at least 110% of the Covered Debt Amount, provided that, for
purposes of this clause (ii) and in connection with the origination of any CLO Security, the Borrowing Base, Adjusted Gross Borrowing
Base and the Covered Debt Amount, as applicable, shall be tested as of the pricing date for such CLO Security;


 






    	 	131	 



     


    

 


(e)            the
Borrower may merge or consolidate with, or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, any other Person so long as (i) the
Borrower is the continuing or surviving entity in such transaction and (ii) at the time thereof and after giving effect thereto,
no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;


 


(f)            the
Borrower or the other Obligors may dissolve or liquidate (i) any Immaterial Subsidiary or (ii) any Subsidiary so long as (a) in
connection with such dissolution or liquidation, any and all of the assets of such Subsidiary shall be distributed or otherwise transferred
to the Borrower or a wholly-owned Subsidiary Guarantor (or, if such Subsidiary is an Excluded Asset, to another Excluded Asset) and (b) such
dissolution or liquidation is not materially adverse to the Lenders and the Borrower determines in good faith that such dissolution or
liquidation is in the best interests of the Borrower and such dissolution does not result in any property of any Obligor becoming subject
to the satisfaction of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Subsidiary (except as permitted under Section 6.12);


 


(g)            the
Borrower and the other Obligors may sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of equipment or other property or assets that do not consist
of Portfolio Investments so long as the aggregate amount of all such sales, leases, transfer and dispositions does not exceed $25,000,000
in any fiscal year;


 


(h)            any
Obligor may transfer assets to an Excluded Asset for the sole purpose of facilitating the transfer of assets (x) from one Excluded
Asset (or a Subsidiary that was an Excluded Asset immediately prior to such disposition) to another Excluded Asset, directly or indirectly
through such Obligor, as applicable (such assets, the “Transferred Assets”); provided that (i) no Event of Default exists
and is continuing at such time or would result from any such transfer, (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transfer and
any Concurrent Transaction, the amount of any excess availability under the Borrowing Base immediately prior to such transfer is not diminished
as a result of such transfer, (iii) the Transferred Assets are transferred to such Obligor by the transferor Excluded Asset on the
same Business Day that such assets are transferred by such Obligor to the transferee Excluded Asset, and (iv) following such transfer,
such Obligor has no liability, actual or contingent, with respect to the Transferred Assets other than Standard Securitization Undertakings
and (y) in connection with a Back-to-Back Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, in determining for the purposes of this Agreement
whether any Obligor has received Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any transaction involving a Transferred Asset, the transfer of such Transferred
Asset to and from such Obligor shall be deemed to be a single transaction; and


 


(i)            the
Obligors may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of direct ownership or economic interests in any Excluded Asset to any Subsidiary that
is not an Obligor, if immediately after giving effect to such sale, transfer or other disposition, no more than 25% of the Value of all
Obligors’ direct ownership or economic interests in all Excluded Assets (calculated as of the date of the most recently delivered
financial statements on or prior to the date of such sale, transfer or other disposition) have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed
of to a Subsidiary that is not an Obligor pursuant to this clause (i); provided that, notwithstanding that a transfer may violate such
25% limitation, such transfer shall nevertheless be permitted if it is required by law, rule, regulation or interpretive position of the
SEC.

Collateral Pool (other than Portfolio Investments or Excluded Assets (but excluding Cash or Cash Equivalents) exchanged for Portfolio

Assets, after giving effect to any Concurrent Transaction, then (i) immediately after giving effect to such Investment, the Covered

such Portfolio Investment or used to acquire any interest in such Portfolio Investment that is not included in the Collateral Pool or

(e)            additional

    	 	133	 



     


    

 


For purposes of this Section 6.04, the aggregate amount of an
Investment at any time shall be deemed to be equal to (A) the aggregate amount of cash, together with the aggregate fair market value
of property, loaned, advanced, contributed, transferred or otherwise invested that gives rise to such Investment (calculated at the time
such Investment is made) minus (B) the aggregate amount of dividends, distributions or other payments received in cash in
respect of such Investment; provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of such Investment be deemed to be less than zero;
provided further that the amount of an Investment shall not in any event be reduced by reason of any write-off of such Investment
nor increased by any increase in the amount of earnings retained in such Investment or as a result of any other matter (other than any
cash or assets contributed by or invested in such Investment).


 


SECTION 6.05.        Restricted

any Restricted Payment, except that the Borrower may declare and pay:

of Indebtedness or other obligations under the GC Advisors Loan Agreement, so long as immediately after giving effect thereto (x) immediately
after giving effect to any Concurrent Transactions, no Borrowing Base Deficiency exists and the Covered Debt Amount does not exceed
90% of the Adjusted Gross Borrowing Base and (y) no Specified Default shall have occurred and be continuing;


 


(b)            dividends
and distributions in either case in cash or other property (excluding for this purpose the Borrower’s common stock) in or with respect
to any taxable year (or any calendar year, as relevant) of the Borrower in amounts not to exceed 110% of the amount that is estimated
in good faith by the Borrower (i) to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements imposed by Section 852(a) of the Code
(or any successor thereto) to maintain the Borrower’s eligibility to be taxed as a RIC for any such taxable year, (ii) to reduce
to zero for any such taxable year its liability for federal income taxes imposed on (A) its investment company taxable income pursuant

made during any period referred to in paragraph (b) above, any Restricted Payments made by any Designated Subsidiary or any

to Obligors) shall be treated as Restricted Payments made by the Borrower during such period.


 






    	 	134	 



     


    

 


Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit the payment
of Restricted Payments by any Subsidiary Guarantor of the Borrower to the Borrower or to any other Subsidiary Guarantor.


 


For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not
declare any dividend to the extent such declaration violates the provisions of the Investment Company Act applicable to it and the determination
of the amounts referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be made separately for the taxable year and the calendar year and the limitation
on dividends or distributions imposed by such paragraph shall apply separately to the amounts so determined.


 


SECTION 6.06.        Certain

its assets) to enter into or suffer to exist any indenture, agreement, instrument or other arrangement (other than (i) the Loan Documents,
(ii) any indenture, agreement, instrument or other arrangement entered into in connection with Indebtedness permitted hereby to the
extent any such indenture, agreement, instrument or other arrangement does not prohibit, in each case in any material respect, or impose
materially adverse conditions upon, the requirements applicable to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under the Loan Documents or (iii) any
agreement, instrument or other arrangement pertaining to any lease, sale or other disposition of any asset permitted by this Agreement
so long as the applicable restrictions (A) only apply to such assets and (B) do not restrict prior to the consummation of such
sale or disposition the creation or existence of the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents or otherwise
required by this Agreement, or the incurrence or payment of Indebtedness under this Agreement or the ability of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
to perform any other obligation under any of the Loan Documents) that prohibits or restrains, in each case in any material respect, or
imposes materially adverse conditions upon, the incurrence or payment of Indebtedness, the granting of Liens, the declaration or payment
of dividends, the making of loans, advances, guarantees or Investments or the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of property.

its Investment Policies in any material respect.


 


SECTION 6.10.        No
Further Negative Pledge. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any other Obligor to, enter into any agreement, instrument, deed
or lease which prohibits or limits in any material respect the ability of such Obligor to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
Lien upon any of its properties, assets or revenues, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or which requires the grant of any security
for an obligation if security is granted for another obligation, except the following: (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
(b) covenants in documents creating Liens permitted by Section 6.02 (including covenants with respect to Designated Indebtedness

agreement with a financier to an Excluded Asset that imposes such restrictions only on ownership and economic interests in such Excluded
Asset; (e) the underlying governing agreements of any minority Equity Interest that impose such restrictions only on such Equity
Interest; and (f) any other agreement that does not restrict in any manner (directly or indirectly) Liens created pursuant to the
Loan Documents on any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and does not require (other than pursuant to a grant of a Lien under
the Loan Documents) the direct or indirect granting of any Lien securing any Indebtedness or other obligation by virtue of the granting
of Liens on or pledge of property of such Obligor to secure the Loans, or any Hedging Agreement.

SECTION 6.11.     Modifications
of Certain Documents. The Borrower will not consent to any modification, supplement or waiver of:

of the provisions of any agreement, instrument or other document evidencing or relating to any Permitted Indebtedness, the 2024 Notes,

if newly incurred as of such date;


 


(b)            any
of the Affiliate Agreements (other than the GC Advisors Loan Agreement) or the Custodian Agreements, unless such modification, supplement

parties; or


 


(c)            the
GC Advisors Loan Agreement, unless such modification, supplement or waiver is not material and adverse to the interests and rights of
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in each case,
without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent.


 


Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower may,
at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, freely amend, restate, terminate,
or otherwise modify any documents, instruments and agreements evidencing, securing or relating to Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01(d),
including increases in the principal amount thereof, modifications to the advance rates and/or modifications to the interest rate, fees

SECTION 6.12.     Payments
of Other Indebtedness. The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Obligor to, purchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire
for value, or set apart any money for a sinking, defeasance or other analogous fund for the purchase, redemption, retirement or other
acquisition of, or make any voluntary payment or prepayment of the principal of or interest on, or any other amount owing in respect of,
any Permitted Indebtedness, any Special Longer-Term Unsecured Indebtedness, any Shorter-Term Unsecured Indebtedness or any Indebtedness
that is not then included in the Covered Debt Amount (other than (x) payments and prepayments under the GC Advisors Loan Agreement
pursuant to Section 6.05(a), (y) payments and prepayments of Contingent Secured Indebtedness and (z) the refinancing of
such Indebtedness with Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as incurred by an Excluded
Asset or other Subsidiary) or with the proceeds of any issuance of Equity Interests of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), except
for:


 


(a)            regularly
scheduled payments, prepayments or redemptions of principal and interest in respect thereof required pursuant to the instruments evidencing
such Indebtedness and the payment when due of the types of fees and expenses that are customarily paid in connection with such Indebtedness
(it being understood that: (i) the conversion features into Permitted Equity Interests under convertible notes; (ii) the triggering
of such conversion and/or settlement thereof solely with Permitted Equity Interests; (iii) any cash payment on account of interest
or expenses or fractional shares on such convertible notes in respect of such triggering and/or settlement thereof, and (iv) any
customary mandatory prepayment provisions required by the terms thereof, shall be permitted under this clause (a));


 






    	 	137	 



     


    

 


(b)            payments
and prepayments thereof required to comply with requirements of Section 2.09(c) or 2.09(d); and


 


(c)            other
payments and prepayments so long as, if such payment or prepayment, as applicable, were treated as a “Restricted Payment”
for the purposes of determining compliance with Section 6.05(c), such payment or prepayment, as applicable would be permitted to
be made under Section 6.05(c);


 


provided
that, in no event shall any Obligor be permitted to prepay or settle (whether as a result of a mandatory redemption, conversion or otherwise)
any such Indebtedness, if immediately after giving effect thereto and to any Concurrent Transactions, the Covered Debt Amount would exceed
the Borrowing Base; provided further that, no Obligor shall be permitted to give any notice of prepayment or redemption to any
holders of Indebtedness not included in the Covered Debt Amount, if at the time of the giving of such notice, the inclusion of such Indebtedness
in the Covered Debt Amount, after giving effect to any Concurrent Transactions, would result in a Borrowing Base Deficiency.


 


Article VII


 


EVENTS
OF DEFAULT


 


Until the Facility Termination Date, any of the following
events (“Events of Default”) shall occur and be continuing:


 


(a)            the
Borrower shall (i) fail to pay any principal of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement when and
as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the due date thereof or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof or otherwise or (ii) fail
to deposit any amount into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account as required by Section 2.08(a) on the Commitment Termination
Date;


 


(b)            the
Borrower shall fail to pay any interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount (other than an amount referred to in clause (a) of
this Article VII) payable under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, when and as the same shall become due and payable,
and such failure shall continue, unremedied (i) in the case of any interest on any Loan, LC Disbursement or any scheduled fee, for
a period of five or more Business Days and (ii) in the case of any other amount, for a period of ten or more Business Days following
delivery of notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower;


 






    	 	138	 



     


    

 


(c)            any
representation or warranty made (or deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02) by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any amendment or modification hereof or thereof, or in any report,
certificate, financial statement or other document furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to or
in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any amendment or modification hereof or thereof, shall prove to have been
incorrect when made or deemed made in any material respect; provided that, the Borrower may cure any Default or Event of Default arising
solely from the delivery of any certificate or report with an inaccuracy, by delivering within three (3) Business Days of knowledge
by the Borrower thereof a corrected certificate or report so long as (i) any Borrowing, sale, disposition or other action of the
Borrower or any other Obligor that was taken in reliance on such certificate or report containing such inaccuracy would have also been
permitted hereunder if such Borrowing, sale, disposition or other action had been taken in reliance on the corrected certificate or report
and (ii) the Borrower did not have knowledge of such inaccuracy at the time such certificate or report that included such inaccuracy
was delivered;


 


(d)            the
Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any covenant, condition or agreement contained in (i) Section 5.03 (with respect to
the Borrower’s existence), Sections 5.08(a) and (b), Section 5.09 (solely with respect to a violation of applicable
Sanctions), or in Article VI or any Obligor shall default in the performance of any of its obligations contained in Section 7
of the Guarantee and Security Agreement, or (ii) Sections 5.01(d) and (e), or Section 5.02 and such failure,
in the case of this clause (ii), shall continue unremedied for a period of five or more Business Days after notice thereof by the Administrative
Agent (given at the request of any Lender) to the Borrower; provided that to the extent failure of an Obligor to “Deliver”
(as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) any particular Investment to the extent required by Section 7 of the Guarantee
and Security Agreement would not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 7.01(p) (assuming such investments
were included in the Collateral Pool), such failure to Deliver shall not constitute a Default under this clause (d);


 


(e)            a
Borrowing Base Deficiency shall occur and continue unremedied for a period of five or more Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing
Base Certificate demonstrating such Borrowing Base Deficiency pursuant to Section 5.01(e); provided that it shall not be a
Specified Default or an Event of Default hereunder if the Borrower shall present the Administrative Agent with a reasonably feasible plan
to enable such Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days (which 30-Business Day period shall include the
five Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan), so long as such Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within such 30-Business
Day period; provided further, such 30-Business Day period shall be extended to a 45-Business Day period solely to the extent as provided
in Section 2.09(c) in order to cure any failure to satisfy the Senior Investment Minimum Covenant;


 


(f)            the
Borrower or any other Obligor, as applicable, shall fail to observe or perform any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this
Agreement (other than those specified in clause (a), (b), (d) or (e) of this Article VII) or any other Loan Document
and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 or more days after notice thereof from the Administrative Agent (given
at the request of any Lender) to the Borrower;


 






    	 	139	 



     


    

 


(g)            the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall fail to make any payment (whether of principal or interest and regardless of amount) in respect
of any Material Indebtedness, when and as the same shall become due and payable, taking into account (other than with respect to payments
of principal) any applicable grace or cure period;


 


(h)            any
event or condition occurs that results in any Material Indebtedness (i) becoming due prior to its scheduled maturity or (ii) that
shall continue unremedied for any applicable period of time sufficient to enable or permit the holder or holders of any Material Indebtedness
or any trustee or agent on its or their behalf to, as a result of an event of default under such Material Indebtedness, cause any Material
Indebtedness to become due, or to require the prepayment, repurchase, redemption or defeasance thereof, prior to its scheduled maturity
(for the avoidance of doubt, in each case, other than as permitted under Section 6.12 and after giving effect to any applicable grace
or cure period), provided that this clause (h) shall not apply (1) to secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of the
voluntary sale or transfer of the property or assets securing such Indebtedness, (2) to convertible debt that becomes due as a result
of a conversion or redemption event, other than as a result of an “event of default” (as defined in the documents governing
such convertible Material Indebtedness), (3) to any Indebtedness of a Designated Subsidiary that becomes due in part as a result
of a breach of an overcollateralization test or borrowing base deficiency, or a customary “change of control” put right in
any indenture or (4) in the case of clause (h)(ii), to any Indebtedness of a Designated Subsidiary (x) to the extent the event
or condition giving rise to the circumstances in clause (h)(ii) was not a payment or insolvency default or (y) so long as all
Commitments have not been terminated and the Loans have not been declared due and payable in full, such event or condition is no longer
continuing or has been waived in accordance with the terms of such Material Indebtedness such that the holder or holders thereof or any
trustee or agent on its or their behalf are no longer enabled or permitted to cause such Material Indebtedness to become due, or to require
the prepayment, repurchase, redemption or defeasance thereof, prior to its scheduled maturity;


 


(i)            an
involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be filed seeking (i) liquidation, reorganization or other
relief in respect of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or group of Subsidiaries that if consolidated would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary) or its debts, or of a substantial part of its assets, under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or (ii) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator
or similar official for the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or group of Subsidiaries that if consolidated would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary) or for a substantial part of its assets, and, in any such case, such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed
and unstayed for a period of 60 or more days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered;


 


(j)            the
Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or group of Subsidiaries that if consolidated would constitute a Significant Subsidiary)
shall (i) voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief under any
Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, (ii) consent to the institution
of, or fail to contest in a timely and appropriate manner, any proceeding or petition described in clause (i) of this Article VII,
(iii) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for
the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or group of Subsidiaries that if consolidated would constitute a Significant Subsidiary)
or for a substantial part of its assets, (iv) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in
any such proceeding, (v) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or (vi) take any action for the purpose of effecting
any of the foregoing;


 






    	 	140	 



     


    

 


(k)            the
Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or group of Subsidiaries that if consolidated would constitute a Significant Subsidiary)
shall become unable, admit in writing its inability or fail generally to pay its debts as they become due;


 


(l)            one
or more judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of $75,000,000 shall be rendered against the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries or any combination thereof and (i) if not covered by insurance, the same shall remain undischarged for a period
of 30 consecutive days following the entry of such judgment during which 30 day period such judgment shall not have been
vacated, stayed, discharged or bonded pending appeal, or (ii) any action shall be legally taken by a judgment creditor to attach
or levy upon any assets of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to enforce any such judgment;


 


(m)            an
ERISA Event shall have occurred that, when taken together with all other ERISA Events that have occurred, would reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect;


 


(n)            a
Change in Control shall occur;


 


(o)            GC
Advisors LLC, or any Affiliate of GC Advisors LLC that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction located in the United States of America
and in the business of managing or advising clients that replaces GC Advisors LLC (or any such permitted successor) shall cease to be
the investment advisor for the Borrower;


 


(p)            the
Liens created by the Security Documents shall, at any time with respect to Portfolio Investments included in the Collateral Pool having
an aggregate Value in excess of 5% of the aggregate Value of all Portfolio Investments included in the Collateral Pool, not be valid
and perfected (to the extent perfection by filing, registration, recordation, possession or control is required herein or therein) in
favor of the Collateral Agent, free and clear of all other Liens (other than Liens permitted under Section 6.02 or under the respective
Security Documents); provided that if such default is as a result of any action of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent
or a failure of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to take any action within its control, then there shall be no Default
or Event of Default hereunder unless such default shall continue unremedied for a period of ten (10) consecutive Business Days after
the Borrower receives written notice of such default thereof from the Administrative Agent unless the continuance thereof is a result
of a failure of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to take an action within their control ;


 






    	 	141	 



     


    

 


(q)            except
for expiration or termination in accordance with its terms, any of the Security Documents, taken as a whole, shall for whatever reason
be terminated or cease to be in full force and effect in any material respect, or the enforceability thereof shall be contested by any
Obligor;


 


(r)            any
Obligor shall at any time, without the consent of the Required Lenders, (i) modify, supplement or waive in any material respect the
Investment Policies (other than any modification, supplement or waiver required by any applicable law, rule or regulation or Governmental
Authority); provided that a modification, supplement or waiver shall not be deemed a modification in any material respect of the
Investment Policies if the effect of such modification, supplement or waiver is that the permitted investment size of the Portfolio Investments
proportionately increases as the size of the Borrower’s capital base changes; (ii) modify, supplement or waive in any material
respect the Valuation Policy (other than any modification, supplement or waiver (w) required under GAAP, (x) required by any
applicable law, rule or regulation or Governmental Authority), (y) in a manner that is more restrictive on or otherwise less
favorable to the Borrower or (z) in a manner that is not materially adverse to the Lenders), (iii) except as required by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, fail to comply with the Valuation Policy in any material respect, or (iv) fail to comply with
the Investment Policies if such failure would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and in the case of clauses
(iii) and (iv) of this paragraph (r), such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 or more days after the earlier
of notice thereof by the Administrative Agent (given at the request of any Lender) to the Borrower or knowledge thereof by a Financial
Officer of the Borrower;


 


then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to
the Borrower described in clause (i) or (j) of this Article VII), and at any time thereafter during the continuance
of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take either
or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall
terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any
principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the
Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued
hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby waived by the Borrower; and in case of any event with respect to the Borrower described in clause (i) or (j) of this
Article VII, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued
interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.


 


In the event that the Loans shall be declared, or
shall become, due and payable pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent or Lenders
with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure of a Class demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant
to this paragraph, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account cash in an amount equal to 102%
of the LC Exposure of such Class as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation
to deposit such cash shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or
other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (i) or
(j) of this Article VII.

Article VIII


 


THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT


 


Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative
Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof
or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.


 


Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby
irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as the collateral agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Collateral
Agent to have all the rights and benefits hereunder and thereunder (including Section 9 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement),
and to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.


 


The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder
shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally
engage in any kind of business trust or other business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not
the Administrative Agent hereunder and such Person and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any
Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same
to the other Lenders.


 


The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties
or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred
and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent
is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents,
the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating
to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of
its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent
or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein
or in the other Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be
deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower
or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly
required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.


 






    	 	143	 



     


    

 


The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely
upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or
other writing (including any e-mail, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and
to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone
and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may
consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall
not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 


The Administrative Agent may perform any and all
its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties.
The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities
provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.


 


The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by
notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with
the consent of the Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice
of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective except that in the case
of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks under any of the Loan Documents,
the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative
Agent is appointed and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) the
Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to
or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Required Lenders appoint
a successor agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by
a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or
retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (if
not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect
for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.


 






    	 	144	 



     


    

 


Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to
time deem appropriate, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.


 


Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(b) with
respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to
any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents; provided that, without the prior consent of each Lender,
the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the Collateral
or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any Security Document providing for collateral security, agree to additional
obligations being secured by all or substantially all of such collateral security, or alter the relative priorities of the obligations
entitled to the benefits of the Liens created under the Security Documents with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral,
except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to (1) release (which such release
shall be automatic and require no further action from any party) any Lien covering property that is the subject of either a disposition
of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented, (2) release from any Guarantee and
Security Agreement any “Subsidiary Guarantor” (and any property of such Subsidiary Guarantor) that is designated as a “Designated
Subsidiary” by the Borrower or becomes an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement or which
is no longer required to be a “Subsidiary Guarantor”, so long as in the case of this clause (2): (A) immediately after
giving effect to any such release and any Concurrent Transactions, the Covered Debt Amount does not exceed the Borrowing Base and the
Borrower delivers a certificate of a Financial Officer to such effect to the Administrative Agent, (B) either, immediately after
giving effect to any Concurrent Transactions, (I) the amount of any excess availability under the Borrowing Base immediately prior
to such release is not diminished as a result of such release or (II) the Adjusted Gross Borrowing Base immediately after giving
effect to such release is at least 110% of the Covered Debt Amount and (C) no Specified Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, (3) spread Liens to any Designated Indebtedness or Hedging Agreement Obligations (as such terms are defined in
the Guarantee and Security Agreement) in accordance with the Guarantee and Security Agreement and (4) release from any Guarantee
and Security Agreement any Obligor (and any property of such Obligor) that is concurrently being joined as an Obligor under the Guarantee
and Security Agreement in connection with a transaction permitted hereunder.


 






    	 	145	 



     


    

 


None of the Syndication Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger
shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability
hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

satisfy its obligations to deliver documents or notices to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under Sections 5.01 and 5.02
by delivering an electronic copy to:  kevin.c.campbell@chase.com and gina.yant@chase.com, or such other e-mail address(es) as provided
to the Borrower in a notice from the Administrative Agent, (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide notice thereof to the
Lenders).


 


Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes,
(i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement
from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written
acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient,
such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient,
and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by
the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication
is available and identifying the website address therefor.


 


In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any
Lender have any liability to the Borrower or any other Person for damages of any kind (whether in tort contract or otherwise) arising
out of any transmission of communications through the internet, except in the case of direct damages, to the extent such damages are determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct
or gross negligence of such relevant Person.

(c)            Documents
to be Delivered under Sections 5.01 and 5.02. For so long as an IntralinksTM or equivalent website is available to
each of the Lenders hereunder, the Borrower may satisfy its obligation to deliver documents to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
under Sections 5.01 and 5.02 by delivering either an electronic copy in the manner specified in Section 9.01(b) or
a notice identifying the website where such information is located for posting by the Administrative Agent on IntralinksTM or such
equivalent website; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to maintain access to IntralinksTM
or an equivalent website.


 


SECTION 9.02.     Waivers;
Amendments.


 


(a)            No
Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising
any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or
any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative
and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent
to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of
this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed
as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge
of such Default at the time.


 


(b)            Amendments
to this Agreement. Subject to Sections 2.14(b), (c) and (d) and Section 9.02(e) below, neither this Agreement
nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided
that, no such agreement shall:


 


(i)            increase
the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,


 


(ii)            reduce
the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without
the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,


 


(iii)            postpone
the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder,
or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the
written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,


 


(iv)            change
Section 2.17(b), (c) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the
written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby,


 






    	 	148	 



     


    

 


(v)           change
any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 (b) or the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision
hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination
or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender,


 


(vi)          other
than as permitted by this Agreement, the Guarantee and Security Agreement or any other applicable Loan Document, release all or substantially
all of the Collateral from the Lien created under the Guarantee and Security Agreement or release all or substantially all of the Obligors
from their obligations as Subsidiary Guarantors thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, or


 


(vii)         amend
the definition of “Applicable Percentage”, “Applicable Dollar Percentage” or “Applicable Multicurrency Percentage”,
without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;


 


provided
further that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent or any Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may
be and (y) the consent of Lenders holding not less than two-thirds of the holders of the total Revolving Credit Exposures and unused
Commitments will be required (A) for any adverse change (from the Lenders’ perspective) affecting the provisions of this Agreement
solely relating to the calculation of the Borrowing Base (excluding changes to the provisions of Section 5.12(b)(iii) or (iv),
but including changes to the provisions of Section 5.12(c)(ii) and the definitions set forth in Section 5.13) unless otherwise
expressly provided herein and (B) for any release of Collateral other than for fair value or as otherwise permitted hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents.


 


For purposes of this Section 9.02, the “scheduled
date of payment” of any amount shall refer to the date of payment of such amount specified in this Agreement, and shall not refer
to a date or other event specified for the mandatory or optional prepayment of such amount. In addition, whenever a waiver, amendment
or modification requires the consent of a Lender “affected” thereby, such waiver, amendment or modification shall, upon consent
of such Lender, become effective as to such Lender whether or not it becomes effective as to any other Lender, so long as the Required
Lenders consent to such waiver, amendment or modification as provided above.


 


Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
no waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that could reasonably be expected to adversely
affect the Lenders of any Class in a manner that does not affect all Classes equally shall be effective against the Lenders of such
Class unless the Required Lenders of such Class shall have concurred with such waiver, amendment or modification as provided
above; provided, however, in no other circumstances shall the concurrence of the Required Lenders of a particular Class be
required for any waiver, amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.


 






    	 	149	 



     


    

 


(c)            Amendments
to Security Documents. Except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth in the Guarantee and Security Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, no Security Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified, nor may the Liens granted under the Guarantee
and Security Agreement be spread to secure any additional obligations (excluding (x) any increase in the Loans and Letters of Credit
hereunder pursuant to a Commitment Increase under Section 2.07(e), (y) any increase in any Other Secured Indebtedness permitted
hereunder and (z) the spreading of such Liens to any Designated Indebtedness or Hedging Agreement Obligations (as such terms are
defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) as provided for in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) except pursuant to an agreement
or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Collateral Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided
that, except as otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, (i) without the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement
shall release all or substantially all of the Obligors from their respective obligations under the Security Documents and (ii) without
the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement shall release all or substantially all of the collateral security or otherwise terminate
all or substantially all of the Liens under the Security Documents, alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the Liens
created under the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional obligations equally and ratably with the Loans and
other obligations hereunder) with respect to all or substantially all of the collateral security provided thereby, or release all or substantially
all of the guarantors under the Guarantee and Security Agreement from their guarantee obligations thereunder, except that, in each case
described in clause (i) or (ii), no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (and so agrees
with the Borrower) to direct the Collateral Agent under the Guarantee and Security Agreement (in addition to the rights of such parties
under the Guarantee and Security Agreement), to and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, (1) release any Lien covering
property (and to release any such guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property (including, without limitation, in
connection with the origination of any CLO Security or any Back-to-Back Transaction) permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the
Required Lenders or the required number or percentage of Lenders have consented (and such Lien shall be released automatically to the
extent provided in the Guarantee and Security Agreement), (2) release from the Guarantee and Security Agreement any “Subsidiary
Guarantor” (and any property of such Subsidiary Guarantor) that is designated as a “Designated Subsidiary” or becomes
an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement or is otherwise no longer required to be a “Subsidiary
Guarantor” (including, without limitation, because it ceases to be consolidated on the Borrower’s financial statements), so
long as (A)immediately after giving effect to any such release under this clause (2) and any Concurrent Transactions, the
Covered Debt Amount does not exceed the Borrowing Base and the Borrower delivers a certificate of a Financial Officer to such effect to
the Administrative Agent, (B) immediately after giving effect to any Concurrent Transactions, either (I) the amount of
any excess availability under the Borrowing Base immediately prior to such release is not diminished as a result of such release or (II) the
Adjusted Gross Borrowing Base, immediately after giving effect to such release is at least 110% of the Covered Debt Amount and (C) no
Specified Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.


 


(d)            Replacement
of Non-Consenting Lender. If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, amendment, consent, discharge or termination to any
of the provisions of this Agreement requiring (i) the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby”
or (ii) the consent of “two-thirds of the holders of the total Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments” that
has been approved by the Required Lenders, the consent of one or more Lenders whose consent is required for such proposed change, waiver,
amendment, consent, discharge or termination is not obtained, then (so long as no Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or
(k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing) the Borrower shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to replace
each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.19(b) so long as at the
time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge, termination or addition.


 






    	 	150	 



     


    

 


(e)            If
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect
in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend,
modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment
shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.


 


SECTION 9.03.     Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver.


 


(a)            Costs
and Expenses. Subject to any limitation previously agreed in writing, the Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (with respect to legal fees, limited to the reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel for the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates collectively
in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof) (whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank
in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, (iii) all
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (with respect to
legal fees, limited to the documented fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel (and, in the case of an actual conflict of
interest where the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict
and thereafter retains its own counsel, another firm of counsel for any such affected Person) for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing
Bank and any Lender collectively), in connection with the enforcement or protection of such Person’s respective rights in connection
with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans or
Letters of Credit, including all such documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in
respect thereof and (iv) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred
in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Security Document or
any other document referred to therein.


 






    	 	151	 



     


    

 


(b)            Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Joint Lead Arranger and each Lender,
and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and
hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (with respect to legal fees,
limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel (and, in the case of an
actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains
its own counsel, another firm of counsel for any such affected Indemnitee) for the Indemnitees collectively (other than the allocated
costs of internal counsel)), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their
respective obligations hereunder owed by or to or otherwise arising with respect to the Borrower or the consummation of the Transactions
or any other transactions contemplated hereby or pursuant to any other Loan Document, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use
of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents
presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or (iii) any actual or prospective
claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and
regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not be available to the extent that
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from (A) the bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, (B) the
material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (C) a claim arising as
a result of a dispute between Indemnitees (other than (x) any dispute involving claims against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing
Bank, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and (y) claims arising out of any
act or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates). This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any
Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.


 


(c)            Reimbursement
by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing
Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent
or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed
expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim,
damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Issuing
Bank in its capacity as such.


 


(d)            Waiver
of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby
waives, any claim against any other party (or any Related Party to such party), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential
or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof, provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations
under Section 9.03 to the extent such special, indirect consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in
connection with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification thereunder.


 


(e)            Payments.
All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04.     Successors
and Assigns.


 


(a)            Assignments
Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the
Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender
(and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign
or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04 (and any attempted assignment
or transfer by any Lender which is not in accordance with this Section 9.04 shall be treated as provided in the last sentence of
Section 9.04(b)(iii)). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than
the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues
any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.


 


(b)            Assignments
by Lenders.


 


(i)             Assignments
Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all
or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans and LC Exposure
at the time owing to it) only if the assignee shall have executed a Lender non-disclosure agreement substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit G (a “Lender NDA”), with such changes requested by such assignee as may be reasonably approved
by the Borrower, with the Borrower prior to such assignee’s receipt of any confidential information of the Borrower, and with the
prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:


 


(A)            the
Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or, if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (except that so long as no Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j), or (k) of
Article VII is continuing, the Borrower shall have a consent right over any assignment to a Disqualified Lender), any other assignee;
and


 


(B)            the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks holding LC Commitments of the same Class as the Commitment, Loans and LC Exposure being
transferred.


 


(ii)            Certain
Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:


 


 (A)            except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment or Loans and LC Exposure of a Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans and LC Exposure of such Class of
the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption in substantially the form
of Exhibit A hereto with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than U.S. $5,000,000
unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required
if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing;


 






    	 	153	 



     


    

 


(B)            each
partial assignment of any Class of Commitments or Loans and LC Exposure shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of
all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Class of Commitments, Loans and LC
Exposure;


 


(C)            the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing
and recordation fee of U.S. $3,500 (which fee shall not be payable in connection with an assignment to a Lender or to an Affiliate
of a Lender) (for which no Obligor shall be obligated); and


 


(D)            the
assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender of the applicable Class, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.


 


(iii)          Effectiveness
of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04, from and
after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,
2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment
or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated
for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of
this Section 9.04.


 


(c)            Maintenance
of Register by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain
at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each
Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Registers shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name
is recorded in the Registers pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice
to the contrary. The Registers shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent agrees to provide the Borrower with official copies of the
Register upon reasonable request.


 






    	 	154	 



     


    

 


(d)            Acceptance
of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender
and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder),
the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment
required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and
record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has
been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (d).


 


(e)            Participations.
Any Lender may, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), sell participations to one
or more banks or other entities other than a Disqualified Lender (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans
and LC Disbursements owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance
of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and (iv) no consent of the Borrower shall be required for a participation to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (except that so long as no Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j), or
(k) of Article VII is continuing, the Borrower shall have a consent right over any participation to a Disqualified Lender).
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that
affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section 9.04, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall
be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest
by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including
the requirements under Sections 2.16(e), (f) and (g) (it being understood that the documentation required under these paragraphs
shall be delivered to the participating Lender)). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense,
to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19 with respect to any Participant.
To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender;
provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(d) as though it were a Lender hereunder. For the avoidance
of doubt, all Participants must execute a Lender NDA, with such changes as requested by such Participant as may be approved by the Borrower,
prior to such Participant’s receipt of any confidential information of the Borrower. Each Lender that sells a participation shall,
acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of
each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans, Letters
of Credit or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”) and shall not have any obligation
to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person
except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is
in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 1.163-5(b) of the
proposed United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such
Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes
of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.


 






    	 	155	 



     


    

 


(f)            Limitations
on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16
than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the
sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign
Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation
sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16 as though it were
a Lender and in the case of a Participant claiming exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of
the Code, the applicable Lender shall provide the Borrower with satisfactory evidence that the participation is in registered form and
shall permit the Borrower to review such register as reasonably needed for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under applicable
laws and regulations.


 


(g)            Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having
jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided
that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto; provided, further, that if any confidential information of the Borrower
is to be provided to such pledgee or assignee (in each case, other than a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction
over such Lender), such pledgee or assignee must first execute a Lender NDA, with such changes as requested by such pledgee or assignee
as may be reasonably approved by the Borrower, prior to its receipt of any such confidential information.


 


(h)            No
Assignments or Participations to Natural Persons, the Borrower or Affiliates or Certain Other Persons. Anything in this Section 9.04
to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may (i) assign or participate any interest in any Loan or LC Exposure held by it hereunder
to any natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned by and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural
person) or to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, Designated Subsidiaries) without the
prior consent of each Lender or (ii) assign any interest in any Commitment, Loan or LC Exposure held by it hereunder to any Person
known by such Lender at the time of such assignment to be a Defaulting Lender, a Subsidiary of a Defaulting Lender or a Person who, upon
consummation of such assignment would be a Defaulting Lender.

(i)            Multicurrency
Lenders. Any assignment by a Multicurrency Lender, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, must be to a Person
that is able to fund and receive payments on account of each outstanding Agreed Foreign Currency at such time without the need to obtain
any authorization referred to in clause (c) of the definition of “Agreed Foreign Currency”.


 


(j)            Certain
Matters Relating to Disqualified Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have liability for, or have any duty
to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether
any Lender is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of
Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender. The list of Disqualified Lenders will be made available
by the Administrative Agent to any Lender, Participant or potential Lender or participant upon request.


 


SECTION 9.05.     Survival.
All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered
in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation
made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have
had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall
continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired
or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force
and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination
of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


 


SECTION 9.06.     Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.


 


(a)            Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto
on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative
Agent constitute the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous
agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement
shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of
a signature page to this Agreement by telecopy or e-mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement.


 






    	 	157	 



     


    

 


(b)            Electronic
Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import
in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without
limitation any Assignment and Assumption, amendments or other Borrowing Requests, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic
signatures (including, for the avoidance of doubt, electronic signatures utilizing the DocuSign platform) or the keeping of records in
electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use
of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar
state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.


 


SECTION 9.07.     Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any
other jurisdiction.


 


SECTION 9.08.     Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and
all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever Currency) at any time held and other obligations at
any time owing by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any
of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender,
such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement
and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured, or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from
the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness of the Borrower. The rights of each Lender, each
Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other
rights of setoff) which such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Affiliate may have; provided that in the event that any Defaulting
Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for
further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting
Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and
(b) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations
owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after
any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided  further, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such set-off and application.

Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New
York.


 


(b)            Submission
to Jurisdiction. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court
of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such
New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any
such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.


 


(c)            Waiver
of Venue. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively
do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in
any such court.

of Process. Each party to this Agreement (i) irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in

SECTION 9.10.     WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY
OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO
ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT
BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.


 






    	 	159	 



     


    

 


SECTION 9.11.     Judgment
Currency. This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars or any Foreign Currency, as the case may
be (the “Specified Currency”), and payment in New York City or the country of the Specified Currency, as the case may
be (the “Specified Place”), is of the essence, and the Specified Currency shall be the currency of account in all events
relating to Loans denominated in the Specified Currency. The payment obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement shall not be discharged
or satisfied by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that
the amount so paid on conversion to the Specified Currency and transfer to the Specified Place under normal banking procedures does not
yield the amount of the Specified Currency at the Specified Place due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court
it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another currency (the “Second Currency”),
the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative
Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with the Second Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment
is rendered. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under
any other Loan Document (in this Section 9.11 called an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of
exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such
Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due from the Borrower hereunder in the Second Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance
with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer to the Specified Place the Specified Currency with the amount of the Second Currency
so adjudged to be due; and the Borrower hereby, and as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify
such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the Specified Currency, the amount (if any) by which the sum
originally due from the Borrower to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency hereunder exceeds the amount of the Specified Currency
so purchased and transferred.


 


SECTION 9.12.     Headings.
Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. None of the Joint
Lead Arrangers or Syndication Agent shall have any responsibility under this Agreement.


 


SECTION 9.13.     Treatment
of Certain Information; Confidentiality.


 


(a)            Treatment
of Certain Information. The Borrower acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services
may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any
Lender or by one or more subsidiaries or affiliates of such Lender and the Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information
delivered to such Lender by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of such Lender
to enter into this Agreement, to any such subsidiary or affiliate, it being understood that any such subsidiary or affiliate receiving
such information shall be bound by the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section 9.13 as if it were a Lender hereunder.
Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments
or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


 






    	 	160	 



     


    

 


(b)            Confidentiality.
The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Joint Lead Arranger, each Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees to keep confidential
all Information (as defined below); provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Joint
Lead Arranger, any Issuing Bank or any Lender from disclosing any such Information (a) to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any Affiliate thereof that has been informed of the confidential nature
of such information and advised of its obligation to keep information of this type confidential, (b) subject to an agreement to comply
with the provisions of this Section, to any actual or prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement that (i) executed a Lender NDA and (ii) has been approved by the Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld) to the extent the Borrower’s consent to an assignment in or participation acquired by such Person is required pursuant
to Section 9.04(b) or (e), as applicable; provided that, such Person would be permitted to be an assignee or Participant pursuant
to the terms hereof and (except with the prior written consent of the Borrower) such Person is not a Disqualified Lender, (c) to
its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its Affiliates who are informed
of the confidential nature of such information and advised of their obligation to keep information of this type confidential (collectively,
“Representatives”), (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, (e) to the extent required
by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (provided that, it will use its reasonable efforts to notify
the Borrower in writing of any such disclosure prior to making such disclosure to the extent permitted by applicable law, rule or
regulation and will use reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment of such information and will cooperate with the Borrower,
at the Borrower’s expense, to the extent the Borrower may reasonably request in seeking to resist or limit such disclosure), (f) if
requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed, (h) to
any self-regulatory authority, including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization that requires
access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender; provided
that the disclosure of any such information to any such organization or agency referred to above shall be made subject to the acknowledgment
and acceptance by such organization or agency that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis in accordance with customary
market standards for dissemination of such type of information, (i) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, (j) to any other party to this Agreement, (k) to any direct or indirect or prospective counterparty
to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Transactions (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (l) to any
nationally recognized rating agency or (m) if agreed by the Borrower in its sole discretion, to any other Person. “Information”
means all information received from GC Advisors LLC (or any permitted successor thereof), Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating
to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses or any portfolio investment (including Portfolio Investments
and including the Value of such Portfolio Investments), whether made orally, in writing, or by any other means whether tangible, intangible,
electronic or observational, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any
Joint Lead Arranger, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by GC Advisors LLC (or any permitted
investment advisor), the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries other than as a result of a disclosure in breach of this Agreement and other
than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers,
that serve the lending industry. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.13(b) shall
be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality
of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.


 






    	 	161	 



     


    

 


No Lender shall, without first obtaining the Borrower’s express
written consent: (x) use or permit the use of any Information for any purpose whatsoever except for the specific purposes of performing
under this Agreement (other than as expressly provided in this Section 9.13); (y) disclose or permit the disclosure of any Information
to any person or entity other than as specified above; and (z) disclose any Information to any other client (except to the extent
permitted above) or Affiliate of such Lender or any Disqualified Lender. Each Lender shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement
by its Representatives.


 


The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each
Joint Lead Arranger, each Issuing Bank or each Lender acknowledges that improper disclosure of Information may irreparably harm the Borrower.
Because money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement, the Borrower shall be entitled to seek and obtain
specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief on an emergency, temporary, preliminary and/or permanent basis, as a remedy
for any such breach or threatened breach, without first being required to demonstrate actual damages or post any security or bond. Such
remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this Agreement, but shall be in addition to all other legal, equitable
or contractual remedies that the Borrower may have.


 


Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished
to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its
Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding
the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures
and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws; provided that each Lender shall be responsible for its controlled Affiliates’
compliance with this Section 9.13(b).


 


All information, including requests for waivers and
amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its
Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material
non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws.


 






    	 	162	 



     


    

 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, modification to this
Section 9.13(b) with respect to its application to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger,
any Issuing Bank or any Lender may be made by written agreement between such Person and the Borrower pursuant to a Lender NDA, to the
extent such Lender NDA contains provisions more favorable to such Person than the provisions contained in this Section 9.13(b).


 


SECTION 9.14.     USA
PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower,
which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower
in accordance with said Act.


 


SECTION 9.15.     Acknowledgment
and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any
other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected
Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and
conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


 


(a) 
the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising
hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and


 


(b) 
the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:


 


(i) 
a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;


 


(ii) 
a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments
of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
or


 


(iii) 
the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable
Resolution Authority.


 






    	 	163	 



     


    

 


SECTION 9.16.     No
Fiduciary Duty. Each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”),
may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Obligors, their respective stockholders and/or their respective affiliates.
Each Obligor agrees that nothing in this Agreement or the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary
or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Obligor, its stockholders or its
affiliates, on the other. The Obligors acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including
the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the
one hand, and the Obligors, on the other, and (ii) solely in connection therewith and solely with the process leading thereto, (x) no
Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Obligor, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to
the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective
of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Obligor, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters)
or any other obligation to any Obligor except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting
hereunder solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Obligor, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person.
Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and
that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and
the process leading thereto. Each Obligor agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services in connection with
the Loan Documents of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Obligor, solely in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents or the process leading thereto.


 


SECTION 9.17.     Certain
ERISA Matters. (a) (a) Each
Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the
date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative
Agent, and each Joint Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, that at least one of the following is and will be true:


 


(i)            such
Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection
with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments,


 


(ii)            the
transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent
qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts),
PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption
for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined
by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to, and covers, such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration
of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, and the conditions for exemptive relief thereunder
are and will continue to be satisfied in connection therewith,


 


(iii)            (A) such
Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE
84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate
in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation
in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements
of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements
of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in,
administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or


 






    	 	164	 



     


    

 


(iv)            such
other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and
such Lender.


 


(b)            In
addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has
not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a),
such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants,
from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of,
the Administrative Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for
the benefit of the Borrower or any other Obligor, that none of the Administrative Agent, or any Joint Lead Arranger or any of their respective
Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights
by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).


 


(c)            The
Administrative Agent, and each Joint Lead Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide impartial
investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person
has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest
or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain
if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit, or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the
Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility
fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent fees, utilization fees, minimum
usage fees, letter of credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums,
banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.


 


SECTION 9.18.     Acknowledgement
Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging
Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported
QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the
regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC
Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated
to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):


 






    	 	165	 



     


    

 


In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each,
a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported
QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support,
and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same
extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and
any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution
Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be
exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under
the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state
of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect
to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.


 


SECTION 9.19.     Termination.
Promptly upon the Facility Termination Date, the Administrative Agent shall direct the Collateral Agent to, on behalf of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, deliver to the Borrower such termination statements and releases and other documents necessary
or appropriate to evidence the release of the Borrower from this Agreement, the Loan Documents and each of the documents securing the
obligations of the Borrower (and, in the case of the Facility Termination Date, with respect to each of the foregoing, the termination
thereof) hereunder as the Borrower may reasonably request, all at the cost and expense of the Borrower.
