Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification


 


The interest rate on an Advance 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 Administrator (together
with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, 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 Advances. 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 or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 3.01(h) provides
a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company, pursuant to Section 3.01(h)(iv),
of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Advances is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant
or accept any responsibility for, and shall not, except for its own actions under this Agreement, 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 "LIBO
Rate" or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (1) any
such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 3.01(h)(ii), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark
Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant
to Section 3.01(h)(iii), 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, the LIBO Rate or have the same
volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

other bidder for other Portfolio Investments in such pool) is greater than the bid on a pool basis.

of the relevant Portfolio Investments or any portion thereof, as applicable, to it; or

portion thereof, as applicable, or otherwise settle transactions in the relevant market or perform its obligations generally.

directed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 1.04 and the application of the net proceeds thereof, the Company hereby
appoints the Administrative Agent as the Company's attorney-in-fact (it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed
to have assumed any of the obligations of the Company by this appointment), with full authority in the place and stead of the Company
and in the name of the Company to effectuate the provisions of this Section 1.04 (including, without limitation, the power to execute
any instrument which the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this
Section 1.04 or any direction or notice to the Collateral Agent in respect of the application of net proceeds of any such sales).
None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Administrator, the Securities Intermediary, the Collateral Agent or any
Affiliate of any thereof shall incur any liability to the Company, the Portfolio Manager, any Lender or any other Person in connection
with any sale effected at the direction of the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section 1.04, including, without limitation,
as a result of the price obtained for any Portfolio Investment, the timing of any sale or sales of Portfolio Investments or the notice
or lack of notice provided to any Person in connection with any such sale, so long as, in the case of the Administrative Agent only, any
such sale does not violate Applicable Law.


 


SECTION 1.05.     Certain
Assumptions relating to Portfolio Investments. For purposes of all calculations hereunder, any Portfolio Investment for which the
trade date in respect of a sale thereof by the Company has occurred, but the settlement date for such sale has not occurred, shall be
considered to be owned by the Company until such settlement date.

SECTION 2.01.     Financing
Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, only during the Reinvestment Period, each Lender hereby severally
agrees to make available to the Company Advances, in U.S. dollars, in an aggregate amount outstanding not exceeding the amount of such
Lender's Financing Commitment. The Financing Commitments shall terminate on the earliest of (a) the last day of the Reinvestment
Period, (b) the Maturity Date and (c) the occurrence of a Market Value Event.


 


SECTION 2.02.     [Reserved].

SECTION 2.03.     Advances;
Use of Proceeds.


 


(a)            Subject
to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Purchase of a Portfolio Investment set forth in Section 1.03 and/or an Advance
set forth in Section 2.05 as of (i) the related Trade Date (in the case of the conditions to Purchase) and (ii) the Advance
date (in the case of the conditions to Advance), the Lenders will (ratably in accordance with their respective Financing Commitments)
make the applicable Advance available to the Company on the related Settlement Date (or otherwise on the related Advance date if no Portfolio
Investment is being acquired on such date) as provided herein.


 


(b)            Except
as expressly provided herein, the failure of any Lender to make any Advance required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its
obligations hereunder. If any Lender shall fail to provide any Advance to the Company required hereunder, 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 hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.


 


(c)            Subject
to Section 2.03(f), the Company shall use the proceeds of the Advances received by it hereunder to purchase the Portfolio Investments
identified in the related Notice of Acquisition or to make advances to the obligor of Delayed Funding Term Loans in accordance with the
underlying instruments relating thereto; provided that, if the proceeds of an Advance are deposited in the Collection Account as
provided in Section 3.01 prior to or on the Settlement Date for any Portfolio Investment but the Company is unable to Purchase such
Portfolio Investment on the related Settlement Date, or if there are proceeds of such Advance remaining after such Purchase, then, subject
to Section 3.01(a), upon written notice from the Portfolio Manager the Collateral Agent shall apply such proceeds as provided in
Section 4.05. The proceeds of the Advances shall not be used for any other purpose except to the extent expressly set forth in the
Effective Date Letter.


 


(d)            With
respect to any Advance, the Portfolio Manager shall, on behalf of the Company, submit a request substantially in the form of Exhibit A
(a "Request for Advance") to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral
Administrator, not later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the Business Day specified as the
date on which such Advance shall be made and, upon receipt of such request, the Lenders shall make such Advances in accordance with the
terms set forth in Section 3.01. Any requested Advance shall be in an amount such that, after giving effect thereto and the related
purchase (if any) of the applicable Portfolio Investment(s), the Borrowing Base Test is satisfied.


 


(e)            [Reserved]


 


(f)            If,
on any date of determination prior to the last day of the Reinvestment Period, there exists an Unfunded Exposure Shortfall, the Company
shall (i) request an Advance and, if the conditions to such Advance are satisfied and such Advance is made in accordance with this
Agreement, deposit the proceeds thereof in the Unfunded Exposure Account and/or (ii) deposit cash from other sources into the Unfunded
Exposure Account in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate Unfunded Exposure Shortfall. If two Business Days prior to the
end of the Reinvestment Period there exists any Unfunded Exposure Amount, then the Portfolio Manager, on behalf of the Company, shall
be deemed to have requested an Advance on such date, and the Lenders shall make a corresponding Advance on the last day of the Reinvestment
Period (with written notice to the Collateral Administrator by the Administrative Agent) in accordance with Article III in an amount,
to be deposited in the Unfunded Exposure Account, equal to the least of (i) the aggregate Unfunded Exposure Amount, (ii) the
Financing Commitments in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Advances and (iii) an amount such that the Borrowing
Base Test is satisfied after giving effect to such Advance; provided that, if the Company provides evidence to the Administrative
Agent that it has cash from other sources that is available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to make any such future advances
in respect of any Delayed Funding Term Loan, then the amount of any such Advance shall be reduced by the amount of such funds. After giving
effect to such Advance, the Company shall cause the proceeds of such Advance and cash from other sources that are available in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement in an amount (together with amounts already on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account) equal to the
aggregate Unfunded Exposure Amount to be deposited in the Unfunded Exposure Account.

ARTICLE III

ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO THE Advances


 


SECTION 3.01.     The
Advances.


 


(a)            Making
the Advances. If the Lenders are required to make an Advance to the Company as provided in Section 2.03, then each Lender shall
make such Advance on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the
Collateral Agent for deposit to the Principal Collection Account; provided that the Company hereby directs the Lenders to pay proceeds
of the Advance to be made on the Original Effective Date (to the extent that such Advance is made under this Agreement upon satisfaction
of the conditions thereto) in the amounts specified in the Effective Date Letter, in accordance with the instructions set forth in the
Effective Date Letter. Each Lender at its option may make any Advance by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender
to make such Advance; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay such Advance
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may borrow and prepay
Advances. The Company may, during the Reinvestment Period, reborrow Advances in an amount up to (x) the aggregate Financing Commitments
of the Lenders on such date minus (y) the Minimum Funding Amount, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Except as
set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, once prepaid, Advances may not be reborrowed.


 






     


    - 35 -


    

 


Payment of the proceeds of Advances by the Lenders
in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Effective Date Letter as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph will constitute
the making of the applicable Advances (or portions thereof, as applicable) to the Company for all purposes and all obligations of the
Lenders to make such Advance shall be satisfied thereby.


 


(b)            Interest
on the Advances. Subject to Section 3.01(h), all outstanding Advances shall bear interest (from and including the date on which
such Advance is made) at a per annum rate equal to the LIBO Rate for each Calculation Period in effect plus the Applicable Margin
for Advances set forth on the Transaction Schedule; provided that, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, all outstanding Advances and any unpaid interest thereon shall bear interest (from and including the date of such Event of
Default) at a per annum rate equal to the LIBO Rate for each Calculation Period in effect plus the Adjusted Applicable Margin ;
provided further that, for purposes of this Section 3.01(b), if the aggregate amount of outstanding Advances at any time is
less than the Minimum Funding Amount, the amount of outstanding Advances at such time shall be deemed to equal the Minimum Funding Amount.


 


(c)            Evidence
of the Advances. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness
of the Company to such Lender resulting from each Advance made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company,
shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a register (the "Register") in which it shall record (1) the
name and address of each Lender, (2) the amount of each Advance made hereunder, (3) the amount of any principal or interest
due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Lender hereunder and (4) the amount of any sum received by
the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof. The entries made in the Register maintained
pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative
Agent to maintain such Register or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay the Advances
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


Any Lender may request that Advances made by it be
evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Company 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 registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative
Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Thereafter, the Advances evidenced by such promissory note
and interest thereon shall at all times be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein
(or, to such payee and its registered assigns).


 


(d)            Pro
Rata Treatment. Except as otherwise provided herein, all borrowings of, and payments in respect of, the Advances shall be made on
a pro rata basis by or to the Lenders in accordance with their respective portions of the Financing Commitments in respect of Advances
held by them.


 






     


    - 36 -


    

 


(e)            Illegality.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company that the adoption
of any law, rule or regulation, or any change therein or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental
Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it
is unlawful, for a Lender or the Administrative Agent to perform its obligations hereunder to fund or maintain Advances hereunder, then
(1) the obligation of such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall immediately be suspended until such time as such Lender
or the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole discretion) that such performance is again lawful, (2) at the request of the
Company, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur
a loss, other than immaterial, incidental expenses), until such time as the Advances are required to be prepaid as required under clause
(3) below, to transfer all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates with
respect to which such performance would not be unlawful, and (3) if such Lender or the Administrative Agent is unable to effect a
transfer under clause (2), then any outstanding Advances of such Lender shall be promptly paid in full by the Company (together with all
accrued interest and other amounts owing hereunder) but not later than the earlier of (x) if the Company requests such Lender or
the Administrative Agent to take the actions set forth in clause (2) above, 20 calendar days after the date on which such Lender
or the Administrative Agent notifies the Company in writing that it is unable to transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement
as specified in such clause (2) and (y) such date as shall be mandated by law; provided that, to the extent that any
such adoption or change makes it unlawful for the Advances to bear interest by reference to the LIBO Rate, then the foregoing clauses
(1) through (3) shall not apply and the Advances shall bear interest (from and after the last day of the Calculation Period
ending immediately after such adoption or change) at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Advances
set forth on the Transaction Schedule.


 


(f)            Increased
Costs.


 


(i)            If
any Change in Law shall:


 


(A)            impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance
charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender;


 


(B)            impose
on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Advances
made by such Lender; or


 


(C)            subject
any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes (other than (x) Indemnified Taxes and (y) Excluded Taxes) on its loans,
loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable
thereto;


 


and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or the Administrative Agent of making, continuing, converting or maintaining any Advance
or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or otherwise), then, upon request by such Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Company will pay to such Lender or the Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may
be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.


 






     


    - 37 -


    

 


(ii)            If
any Lender 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 capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement
or the Advances made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for
such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to
capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time the Company will pay to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.


 


(iii)           A
certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate, and the basis for such compensation of, such Lender
or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (i) or (ii) of this Section shall be delivered to
the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.


 


(iv)           Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute
a waiver of such Lender's or the Administrative Agent's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not
be required to compensate a Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Administrative Agent notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise
to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or the Administrative Agent'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 180-day period referred
to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.


 


(v)           Each
of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agrees that it will take such commercially reasonable actions as the Company may reasonably
request that will avoid the need to pay, or reduce the amount of, any increased amounts referred to in this Section 3.01(f); provided
that no Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be obligated to take any actions that would, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender
or the Administrative Agent, be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation,
due to a loss of money). In no event will the Company be responsible for increased amounts referred to in this Section 3.01(f) which
relates to any other entities to which any Lender provides financing.


 


(vi)           If
any Lender (A) provides notice of unlawfulness or requests compensation under clause (e) above or this clause (f) or (B) defaults
in its obligation to make Advances hereunder, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon written 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, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
related transaction documents to an assignee identified by the Company that shall assume such obligations (whereupon such Lender shall
be obligated to so assign), provided that, (x) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder through the date of such
assignment and (y) a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver
by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. No prepayment
fee that may otherwise be due hereunder shall be payable to such Lender in connection with any such assignment.


 






     


    - 38 -


    

 


(g)            No
Set-off or counterclaim. Subject to Section 3.03, all payments to be made hereunder by the Company in respect of the Advances
shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and in such amounts as may be necessary in order that every such payment (after deduction
or withholding for or on account of any Taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Company is organized or any political subdivision
or taxing authority therein or thereof) shall not be less than the amounts otherwise specified to be paid under this Agreement.


 


(h)            Interest
Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. (i)     In the event that (A) the Administrative
Agent determines (in its commercially reasonable credit judgment) that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable
interest rates by reference to which the LIBO Rate then being determined is to be fixed (including because the Reuters screen is not available
or published on a current basis); provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time or (B) the
Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the LIBO Rate for the applicable Calculation Period will not adequately reflect
the cost to the Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Advances (or its Advance) for such Calculation Period (determined in
their commercially reasonable credit judgment), the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Company and the Lenders, whereupon
(x) any Request for Advance for the applicable Calculation Period shall be ineffective and (y) the obligations of the Lenders
to make any Advance shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company that the Required Lenders have determined
(in their commercially reasonable credit judgment) that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. Furthermore, if any
Advance is outstanding on the date of the Company's receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 3.01(h)(i),
then on the last day of the Calculation Period (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Advance shall
accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin as of such day.


 


(ii)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in
Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Company may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement.
Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th)
Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Company, so long as the Administrative
Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such proposed amendment from Lenders compromising the Required Lenders;
provided that with respect to any proposed amendment containing any SOFR-Based Rate, the Lenders shall be entitled to object only
to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment contained therein. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective
on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required
Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark
Transition Start Date.


 


(iii)            In
connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Company, 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.


 






     


    - 39 -


    

 


(iv)            The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an
Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation
of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement
or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent

SECTION 3.02.     [Reserved].


 


SECTION 3.03.     Taxes.


 


(a)            Payments
Free of Taxes. All payments to be made hereunder by the Company in respect of the Advances shall be made without deduction or withholding
for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law (including FATCA). If any Applicable Law (as determined in good faith discretion of
an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by an applicable Withholding Agent,
then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted
or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the
sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions
and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.


 


(b)            Payment
of Other Taxes by the Company. Without duplication of other amounts payable by the Company under this Section, the Company shall timely
pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse
it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.


 


(c)            Indemnification
by the Company. The Company shall indemnify each Lender, within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or
paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any 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 certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 






     


    - 40 -


    

 


(d)            Indemnification
by the Lenders. Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified
Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such
Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure
to comply with the provisions of 10.06 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable
to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts
at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other
source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).


 


(e)            Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Company to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.03,
the Company 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.


 


(f)            Status
of Secured Parties. (i) Any Secured Party that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect
to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested
by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or
the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition,
any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable
Law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth
in Section 3.03(f) (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment
such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice
the legal or commercial position of such Lender (it being understood that providing any information currently required by any U.S. federal
income tax withholding form shall not be considered prejudicial to the position of a Recipient).


 


(ii)            Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing,


 


(A)           any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent),
an executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; provided, however,
that if the Lender is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it shall provide the appropriate withholding form of
its owner (together with appropriate supporting documentation);


 


(B)           any
Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably 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 Company or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:


 






     


    - 41 -


    

 


(i)            in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect
to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or applicable successor
form establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such
tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, an IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E
or any applicable successor form establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business
profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;


 


(ii)            an
executed IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


(iii)            in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code,
(x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of
the Code, is not a "10 percent shareholder" of the Company or the Parent within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of
the Code, and is not a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S.
Tax Compliance Certificate") and (y) an executed IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or applicable successor
form; or


 


(iv)            to
the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS
Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or applicable successor form, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9,
and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;


 


(C)            any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be reasonably 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 Company or the Administrative Agent), executed originals
of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax,
duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Company or the Administrative
Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 


(D)            if
a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to 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 Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law
and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company 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 to deduct
and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after
the date of this Agreement.


 






     


    - 42 -


    

 


Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification
it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification, provide
such successor form, or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.


 


(E)            The
Administrative Agent and any successor thereto shall, upon becoming a party under this Agreement, deliver to the Company an electronic
copy of either (i) an IRS Form W-9 or any successor thereto or (ii) with respect to payments received on account of any
Lender, a U.S. branch withholding certificate on IRS Form W-8IMY or any successor thereto evidencing its agreement with the Company
to be treated as a U.S. Person for U.S. federal withholding purposes, as applicable. The Administrative Agent represents to the Company
that it is a "U.S. person" and a "financial institution" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1
and a "U.S. financial institution" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1471-3T and that it will comply
with its obligations to withhold under Section 1441 and FATCA.


 


(g)            Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party 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 pursuant to this Section 3.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 3.03), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including
Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount
paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority)
in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant
to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the
indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.
This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating
to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.


 


(h)            Delay
in Requests. The Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any Taxes or related costs
suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Company of such Taxes or related costs,
and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such Taxes or related
costs is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).


 


(i)            Survival.
Each party's obligations under this Section 3.03 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any
assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Financing Commitments, and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

pledged by the Company hereunder are received by the Company, forthwith take such action as is necessary to ensure the Collateral Agent's
continuing perfected security interest in such Collateral (including Delivering such securities, monies or other property to the Collateral
Agent); and (3) on the date of this Agreement, deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Collateral Agent, at the
expense of the Company, legal opinions from Ropes & Gray LLP or other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders, as to the perfection of the Collateral Agent's security interest in any of the Collateral.


 


(c)            Remedies,
Etc. During the period in which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall (but only if
and to the extent directed in writing by the Required Lenders) do any of the following:


 


(i)            Exercise
in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights
and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may, without notice
except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral
Agent's or its designee's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral
Agent or a designee of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may deem commercially reasonable. The Company
agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) calendar days' prior notice to the Company
of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.
The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral
Agent or its designee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and
such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned;


 


(ii)           Transfer
all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Collateral Agent or a nominee thereof;


 


(iii)           Enforce

extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect
thereto;


 


(iv)           Endorse
any checks, drafts, or other writings in the Company's name to allow collection of the Collateral;


 


(v)           Take
control of any proceeds of the Collateral;


 






     


    - 63 -


    

 


(vi)           Execute
(in the name, place and stead of any of the Company) endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer
with respect to all or any of the Collateral; and/or


 


(vii)           Perform
such other acts as may be reasonably required to do to protect the Collateral Agent's rights and interest hereunder.


 


(d)            Compliance
with Restrictions. The Company and the Portfolio Manager agree that in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent or its designee are hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction
in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel in writing is necessary in order to avoid any violation of Applicable Law
(including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective
bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent
and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral),
or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental regulatory authority or official, and
the Company and the Portfolio Manager further agree that such compliance shall not, in and of itself, result in such sale being considered
or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable or accountable to the Company
or the Portfolio Manager for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in good faith compliance with
any such limitation or restriction.


 


(e)            Private
Sale. The Collateral Agent shall incur no liability as a result of a sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale
pursuant to clause (c) above conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. The Company and the Portfolio Manager hereby waive any
claims against each Agent and Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a
private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale.


 


(f)            Collateral
Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The Company hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as the Company's attorney-in-fact (it being understood
that the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have assumed any of the obligations of the Company by this appointment), with full authority
in the place and stead of the Company and in the name of the Company, from time to time in the Collateral Agent's discretion (exercised
at the written direction of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case may be), after the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders
may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement. The Company hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that
the power of attorney granted pursuant to this clause is irrevocable during the term of this Agreement and is coupled with an interest.


 


(g)            Further
Assurances. The Company covenants and agrees that, from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent (as directed by the
Administrative Agent), the Company will execute and deliver such further documents, and do such other acts and things as the Collateral
Agent (as directed by the Administrative Agent) may reasonably request in order fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement and to
protect and preserve the priority and validity of the security interest granted hereunder or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise
and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral; provided that no such document may alter the rights
and protections afforded to the Company or the Portfolio Manager herein.


 


(h)            Release
of Security Interest upon Disposition of Collateral. Upon any sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral (or portion thereof)
that is permitted hereunder, the security interest granted hereunder in such Portfolio Investment or other Collateral (or the portion
thereof which has been sold or otherwise disposed of) shall, immediately upon the sale or other disposition of such Portfolio Investment
or other Collateral (or such portion) and without any further action on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, be
released. Upon any such release, the Collateral Agent will, at the Company's sole expense, deliver to the Company, or cause the Securities
Intermediary to deliver, without any representations, warranties or recourse of any kind whatsoever, all certificates and instruments
representing or evidencing all of the Collateral held by the Securities Intermediary hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Company
or its nominee such documents as the Company shall reasonably request to evidence such release.


  






     


    - 64 -


    

 


(i)            Termination.
Upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations and termination of the Financing Commitments, the security interest granted herein
shall automatically (and without further action by any party) terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Company.
Upon the sale of any Portfolio Investments in accordance with the terms hereof, the security interest granted herein shall automatically
(and without further action by any party) terminate and such Portfolio Investments shall be sold free and clear of the lien of the Collateral
Agent; provided that the lien of the Collateral Agent shall attach to the proceeds of any such sale. Upon any such termination
described in the preceding two sentences, the Collateral Agent will, at the Company's sole expense, deliver to the Company, or cause the
Securities Intermediary to deliver, without any representations, warranties or recourse of any kind whatsoever, all certificates and instruments
representing or evidencing all of the Collateral held by the Securities Intermediary hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Company
or its nominee such documents as the Company shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

THE AGENTS


 


SECTION 9.01.     Appointment

the Collateral Agent (each, an "Agent" and collectively, the "Agents") as its agent and authorizes such
Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof, together with
such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Agent and
each Lender hereby agree that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood
and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Collateral shall be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent
for the benefit of the Secured Parties at the direction of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable.


 


Each financial institution serving as an Agent hereunder
shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender (if applicable) as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though
it were not an Agent, and such financial institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in
any kind of business with the Company as if it were not an Agent hereunder.


 


No Agent or the Collateral Administrator shall have
any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent
shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no
Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except that the foregoing shall not limit
any duty expressly set forth in this Agreement to include such rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or that such Agent is required
to exercise as directed in writing by (i) in the case of the Collateral Agent (A) in respect of the exercise of remedies under
Section 8.02(c), the Required Lenders, or (B) in all other cases, the Administrative Agent or (ii) in the case of any Agent,
the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided herein),
and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to
disclose, any information relating to the Company that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving in the capacity
of such Agent (except insofar as provided to it as Agent hereunder) or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable
for any action taken or not taken by it in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or with the consent or at the
request or direction of the Administrative Agent (in the case of the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Agent only) or the Required
Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders that shall be permitted herein to direct such action or forbearance). None of the
Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Securities Intermediary shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any matter,
including any Default, Event of Default, Market Value Event, Market Value Trigger Event or failure of the Borrowing Base Test unless and
until a Responsible Officer has received written notice thereof from the Company, a Lender or the Administrative Agent. None of the Collateral
Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Securities Intermediary or the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty

as applicable. None of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Securities Intermediary or the Administrative Agent shall

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall
not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, direction, opinion, document
or other writing reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely
upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur
any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), 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.


 


In the event the Collateral Agent or the Collateral
Administrator shall receive conflicting instruction from the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, the instruction of the Required
Lenders shall govern. Neither the Collateral Administrator nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duties or obligations under or in respect
of any other agreement (including any agreement that may be referenced herein) to which it is not a party. The grant of any permissive
right or power to the Collateral Agent hereunder shall not be construed to impose a duty to act.


 


It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that neither
the Collateral Administrator nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for, and shall not be under any duty to monitor or determine,
the Market Value of any Portfolio Investment, compliance with the Eligibility Criteria or the Concentration Limitations in any instance,
to determine if the conditions of "Deliver" have been satisfied or otherwise to monitor or determine compliance by any other
Person with the requirements of this Agreement.


 


Each of the Collateral Administrator, the Securities
Intermediary and each 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 it. None of the Collateral Administrator, the Securities Intermediary or any Agent shall be responsible for any misconduct
or negligence on the part of any sub-agent or attorney appointed by such Person with due care. Each of the Collateral Administrator, the
Securities Intermediary and each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through
their respective Affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Person and its Affiliates (the
 "Related Parties") for such Agent. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent
and to the Related Parties of the Collateral Administrator, the Securities Intermediary and each 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 or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor
as provided in this paragraph, each of the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Administrative
Agent may resign at any time upon 30 days' (or such shorter period as the Company may agree) notice to each other agent, the Lenders,
the Portfolio Manager, the Securities Intermediary and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders (with, so long as
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or no Market Value Event has occurred, the consent of the Company and the Portfolio
Manager) shall have the right to appoint a successor; provided, however, that any such successor receiving payment from the Company
shall be a "U.S. person" and a "financial institution" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1.
If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, consented to by the Company and the Portfolio Manager (if applicable)
and accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Collateral Administrator, Collateral Agent, Securities Intermediary
or Administrative Agent, as applicable, gives notice of its resignation, then the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and
without the consent of the Company or the Portfolio Manager, appoint a successor which shall be a financial institution with an office
in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution; provided, however, that any such successor receiving
payment from the Company shall be a "U.S. person" and a "financial institution" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.1441-1. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Administrative Agent and shall have accepted such appointment
within sixty (60) days after the retiring Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary gives notice of its resignation,
such Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor; provided, however, that any such successor receiving payment from the Company shall be a "U.S. person" and
a "financial institution" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1. Upon the acceptance of its appointment
as Collateral Administrator, Securities Intermediary, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder (and, if
applicable, under the Account Control Agreement) by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary, as applicable, hereunder and
under the Account Control Agreement, and the retiring Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary, as applicable, shall
be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Account Control Agreement. After the retiring Agent's, Collateral
Administrator's or Securities Intermediary's, as applicable, resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Sections 5.03
and 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary, as applicable,
its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was
acting as Collateral Administrator, Securities Intermediary, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.


 


Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor
as provided in this paragraph, each of the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may be removed
at any time with 30 days' (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) notice by the Company
(with the written consent of the Administrative Agent), with notice to the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Agent, the Securities
Intermediary, the Lenders and the Portfolio Manager (which removal of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary will also be
effective as removal under the Account Control Agreement). Upon any such removal, the Company shall have the right (with the written consent
of the Administrative Agent) to appoint a successor to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator and/or the Securities Intermediary,
as applicable. If no successor to any such Person shall have been so appointed by the Company and shall have accepted such appointment
within thirty (30) days after such notice of removal, then the Administrative Agent may appoint a successor which shall be a financial
institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution. If no successor shall have been so
appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within sixty (60) days after the retiring Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities
Intermediary gives notice of its resignation, such Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary may petition a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Collateral Administrator, Securities
Intermediary or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the removed Collateral Agent, Collateral Administrator and/or Securities Intermediary
hereunder and under the Account Control Agreement, and the removed Collateral Agent, Collateral Administrator and/or Securities Intermediary
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (and, if applicable, under the Account Control Agreement). After the removed
Collateral Agent's, Collateral Administrator's and/or Securities Intermediary's removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and
Sections 5.03 and 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such removed Collateral Agent, Collateral Administrator and/or Securities
Intermediary, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them
while it was acting as Collateral Administrator, Securities Intermediary or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.

Upon
the request of the Company or the Administrative Agent or the successor Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary, any
such retiring or removed Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor party all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring or removed Agent,
Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor agent all property
and money held by such retiring or removed Agent, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary hereunder (and under the Account
Control Agreement, if applicable). Upon request of any such successor, the Company and the Administrative Agent shall execute any and
all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor agent all such rights, powers and trusts.


 


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein or in any other Loan Document, any corporation into which the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary or the Collateral Administrator
may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary or the Collateral Administrator shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding
to the business of the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary or the Collateral Administrator shall be the successor of the Collateral
Agent, the Securities Intermediary or the Collateral Administrator hereunder (and, if applicable, under the Account Control Agreement)
without the execution or filing of any paper with any Person or any further act on the part of any Person.


 


Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently
and without reliance upon any 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 any 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 decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder.


 






     


    - 68 -


    

 


Anything in this Agreement notwithstanding, in no
event shall any Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Securities Intermediary be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including lost profits), even if such Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Securities Intermediary,
as the case may be, has been advised of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.


 


Each Agent and the Collateral Administrator shall
not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an officer or officers of such Agent or the Collateral Administrator, unless
it shall be conclusively determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Agent or the Collateral Administrator was grossly negligent
in ascertaining the pertinent facts.


 


Each Agent and the Collateral Administrator shall
not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any certificate, statement, direction or opinion furnished to it in connection with
this Agreement.


 


Each Agent and the Collateral Administrator shall
not be bound to make any investigation into the facts stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, consent,
order, approval, bond or other document or electronic communication or have any responsibility for filing or recording any financing or
continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or
lien granted to it hereunder.


 


In the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct
or bad faith on the part of the Agents, the Agents may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon any request, instruction, certificate, opinion or other document or electronic communication furnished
to the Agents, reasonably believed by the Agents to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and
conforming to the requirements of this Agreement but, in the case of a request, instruction, document or certificate which by any provision
hereof is specifically required to be furnished to the Agents, the Agents shall be under a duty to examine the same in accordance with
the requirements of this Agreement to determine that it conforms to the form required by such provision.


 


No Agent shall be responsible for delays or failures
in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts include but are not limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots
and acts of war. In connection with any payment, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator are entitled to rely conclusively
on any instructions provided to them by the Administrative Agent.


 


The rights, protections and immunities given to the
Collateral Agent in this Section 9.01 and 9.02 shall likewise be available and applicable in all respects to the Securities Intermediary
and the Collateral Administrator.


 


SECTION 9.02.     Additional
Provisions Relating to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator


 


(a)            Collateral
Agent May Perform. The Collateral Agent shall from time to time take such action (at the written direction of the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders) for the maintenance, preservation or protection of any of the Collateral or of its security interest therein
and the Administrative Agent may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to take any action incidental thereto; provided that in
each case the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to take any such action in the absence of such direction and shall have no obligation
to comply with any such direction if it reasonably believes that the same (1) is contrary to Applicable Law or (2) is reasonably
likely to subject the Collateral Agent to any loss, liability, cost or expense, unless the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders,
as the case may be, issuing such instruction make provision reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent for payment of same (which
provision may be payment of such cost or expense by the Company in accordance with the Priority of Payments if such arrangement is reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent). With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the
Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required
to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the
Administrative Agent.


 






     


    - 69 -


    

 


If, in performing its duties under this Agreement,
the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action the Collateral Agent shall request written instructions
from the Administrative Agent as to the course of action desired by it. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions
received after such five (5) Business Day period except to the extent it has already, in good faith, taken or committed itself to
take action inconsistent with such instructions. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and independent
accountants in performing its duties hereunder and shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such advice.


 


(b)            Custody
and Preservation. The Collateral Agent is required to hold in custody and preserve any of the Collateral in its possession pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement and the standard of care set forth herein, provided that the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to
have complied with the terms of this Agreement with respect to the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral if it takes such
action for that purpose as the Company reasonably requests (or, following the occurrence of a Market Value Event or following the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, as the Administrative Agent reasonably requests), but failure of the Collateral Agent
to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral
Agent will not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public
office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any liens thereon.


 


(c)            Collateral
Agent Not Liable. Except to the extent arising from the gross negligence, willful misconduct, criminal conduct, fraud or reckless
disregard of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable by reason of its compliance with the terms of this Agreement
with respect to (1) the investment of funds held thereunder in Eligible Investments (other than for losses attributable to the Collateral
Agent's failure to make payments on investments issued by the Collateral Agent, in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not
as collateral agent, in accordance with their terms) or (2) losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any Eligible Investment
prior to its stated maturity. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Agent is not guaranteeing performance of or
assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Portfolio Investments or other Collateral.


 


(d)            Certain
Rights and Obligations of the Collateral Agent. Without further consent or authorization from any Lenders, the Collateral Agent may
execute any documents or instruments necessary to release any lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or
other disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement or as otherwise permitted or required hereunder or to which the Required Lenders
have otherwise consented. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent
on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, any Agent or Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral
at any such sale and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender in its individual capacity
unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree), shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of
the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations
as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the purchaser at such sale.

(e)            Collateral
Agent, Securities Intermediary and Collateral Administrator Fees and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent,
the Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Administrator such fees as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Securities
Intermediary, the Collateral Administrator and the Portfolio Manager, may agree in writing, subject to the Priority of Payments. The Company
further agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Administrator, or reimburse the Collateral
Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Administrator for paying, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, including
attorney's fees, in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to the Priority of Payments.


 


(f)            Execution
by the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Administrator. The Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary
and the Collateral Administrator are executing this Agreement solely in their capacity as Collateral Agent, Securities Intermediary and
Collateral Administrator, respectively, hereunder and in no event shall have any obligation to make any Advance, provide any Advance or
perform any obligation of the Administrative Agent hereunder.


 


(g)            Reports
by the Collateral Administrator. The Company hereby appoints U.S. Bank National Association as Collateral Administrator and directs
the Collateral Administrator to prepare the reports substantially in the form reasonably agreed by the Company, the Collateral Administrator
and the Administrative Agent. The Company and the Portfolio Manager shall cooperate with the Collateral Administrator in connection with
the preparation of the reports described herein, including calculations relating to the reports contemplated herein or as otherwise reasonably
requested hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Portfolio Manager shall supply in a timely fashion any determinations,
designations, classifications or selections made by it relating to a Portfolio Investment, including in connection with the acquisition
or disposition thereof, and any information maintained by it that the Collateral Administrator may from time to time reasonably request
with respect to the Portfolio Investment and reasonably need to complete the reports required to be prepared by the Collateral Administrator
hereunder or reasonably required to permit the Collateral Administrator to perform its obligations hereunder. The Collateral Administrator
shall deliver a draft of each such report to the Portfolio Manager and the Portfolio Manager shall have an opportunity to review, verify
and approve the contents of the aforesaid reports. To the extent any of the information in such reports conflicts with data or calculations
in the records of the Portfolio Manager, the Portfolio Manager shall notify the Collateral Administrator of such discrepancy and use reasonable
efforts to assist the Collateral Administrator in reconciling such discrepancy. Upon reasonable request by the Collateral Administrator,
the Portfolio Manager further agrees to provide to the Collateral Administrator from time to time during the term of this Agreement, on
a timely basis, any information relating to the Portfolio Investments and any proposed purchases, sales or other dispositions thereof
as to enable the Collateral Administrator to perform its duties hereunder.


 


(h)            Information
Provided to Collateral Agent and Collateral Administrator. Without limiting the generality of any terms of this Section, neither the
Collateral Agent nor the Collateral Administrator shall have liability for any failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the
Portfolio Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Company or the Required Lenders to provide accurate and complete information on a timely
basis to the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Administrator, as applicable, or otherwise on the part of any such party to comply with
the terms of this Agreement, and, absent gross negligence, willful misconduct, criminal conduct, fraud or reckless disregard of the Collateral
Agent or the Collateral Administrator, as applicable, shall have no liability for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance
on the Collateral Agent's or Collateral Administrator's, as applicable, part of any of its duties hereunder that is caused by or results
from any such inaccurate, incomplete or untimely information received by it, or other failure on the part of any such other party to comply
with the terms hereof.

SECTION 10.04.     Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver; Right of Setoff.

other local counsel as required for any Indemnitees, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with,

that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, 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 (x) the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee and its Related Parties or (y) the material noncompliance by the Administrative
Agent or Lenders of their respective obligations under this Agreement (it being understood that this clause (y) shall not be applicable
to an Indemnitee that is not a Related Party of the Administrative Agent or Lender in material noncompliance). This Section 10.04(b) shall

(c)            To
the extent permitted by Applicable Law, neither the Company nor any Indemnitee shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against
the Company or any Indemnitee, as applicable, 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 Transaction Document
or any agreement, instrument or transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided,
that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Company's indemnification obligations hereunder to the extent that such damages

an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its 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) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the
account of the Company against any of and all the obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such
Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be
unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this clause (d) are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of
setoff) which such Lender may have.


 


(e)            This

SECTION 10.05.     Amendments.
Subject to Section 3.01(h)(ii), no amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing
(including, without limitation, a writing evidenced by a facsimile transmission or electronic mail) and executed by each of the Agents,

or liabilities of the Portfolio Manager or the Company shall not be required to be executed by the Portfolio Manager or the Company; provided
further that the Administrative Agent may waive any of the Eligibility Criteria and the requirements set forth in Schedule 3 or Schedule
4 in its sole discretion; provided further that none of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Securities Intermediary

SECTION 10.06.     Successors;
Assignments.


 


(a)            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, except that the Company may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Portfolio Manager, the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer
by the Company without such consent shall be null and void) and the Portfolio Manager may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Except as expressly set forth herein, nothing
in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
or by reason of this Agreement.


 






     


    - 74 -


    

 


(b)            Subject
to the conditions set forth below, any Lender may assign to any other Person, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Financing Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Administrative Agent and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
or a Market Value Event shall have occurred, if such assignee is an Ineligible Person, the Portfolio Manager; provided that no
consent of the Administrative Agent or the Portfolio Manager shall be required for an assignment of any Financing Commitment to an assignee
that is a Lender (or any Affiliate thereof) immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment.


 


Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions: (A) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights
and obligations under this Agreement; and (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent
an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent.


 


Subject to acceptance and recording thereof below,
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 as a Lender but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 5.03 and 10.04).


 


The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each assignment and assumption delivered to it and
the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the parties hereto shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, any Lender and the Portfolio Manager, at any reasonable
time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon its receipt of a duly completed assignment and assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment and assumption and record the information contained
therein in the Register.


 


(c)            Any
Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Lender Participant") in all or a portion of
such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Financing Commitment and the Advances owing
to it); provided that (1) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (2) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (3) the Company, the Agents and the
other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under
this Agreement and (4) the sale to a Lender Participant is recorded in the Participant Register. 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
to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument
may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Lender Participant, agree to any Material Amendment that affects such
Lender Participant.


 






     


    - 75 -


    

 


(d)            Each
Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters
the name and address of each Lender Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Lender Participant's interest
in the Advances or other obligations under this Agreement (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Lender
shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Lender Participant
or any information relating to a Lender 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 is
otherwise required thereunder. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. The Company agrees that each Lender Participant shall be entitled
through the Lender granting such participation (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall have no direct rights against the Company) to the
benefits of Sections 3.01(e) and 3.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.03(f) (it
being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.03(f) shall be delivered to the Lender that sells the participation))
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section;
provided that such Lender Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.01(f) relating to
replacement of Lenders as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 10.06 and (B) shall not be entitled
to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01(e) and 3.03, with respect to any participation, than the Lender that sells the
participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change
in Law that occurs after the Lender Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees,
at the Company's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the replacement of Lenders
provisions set forth in Section 3.01(f) with respect to any Lender Participant.

not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to
