**CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS** 

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "project," "target," "estimate," "intend," "continue" or "believe" or the negatives of, or other variations on, these terms or comparable terminology. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our plans, strategies, prospects and expectations concerning our business, operating results, financial condition and other similar matters. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. Our forward-looking statements include information in this report regarding general domestic and global economic conditions, our future financing plans, our ability to operate as a business development company ("BDC") and the expected performance of, and the yield on, our portfolio companies. There may be events in the future, however, that we are not able to predict accurately or control. The factors listed under "Risk Factors" in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as well as any cautionary language in this report, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. The occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this report could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this report speaks only as of the date of this report. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ from our forward-looking statements may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we have filed or in the future may file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including annual reports on Form 10-K, registration statements on Form N-2, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. The safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which preclude civil liability for certain forward-looking statements, do not apply to the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report because we are an investment company. The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•disruptions in the capital markets, market conditions, and general economic uncertainty;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the impact of information technology system failures, data security breaches, data privacy compliance, network disruptions, and cybersecurity attacks;

**Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp.**

**Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of September 30, 2025 (continued)**

**(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)**

**(Unaudited)**

<sup>(1)</sup> Percentages are based on net assets.

<sup>(2)</sup> Assets are pledged as collateral to the Company's credit facilities. A single investment may be divided into parts that are individually pledged as collateral to separate credit facilities. See Note 6 "Debt."

<sup>(3)</sup> For Industry subtotal and percentage, see Note 4 "Investments."

<sup>(4)</sup> Represents the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Certain investments represent the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Certain investments are subject to an interest rate floor. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by the larger of the floor or the reference to either Euribor ("E"), SOFR including SOFR adjustment, if any, ("S"), SONIA ("SN"), NIBOR ("N"), CORRA ("C"), SARON ("SARON"), BBSW ("B"), STIBOR ("STIBOR") or alternate base rate (commonly based on the U.S. Prime Rate ("P"), unless otherwise noted) at the borrower's option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. S loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month or 1 month S rates. As of September 30, 2025, the rate for 6 month S was 3.85%, 3 month S was 3.98%, 1 month S was 4.13%, 6 month E was 2.10%, 3 month E was 2.03%, 3 month SN was 3.97%, 3 month N was 4.00%, 3 month C was 2.45%, 3 month SARON was (0.05)%, 3 month B was 3.58%, 2 month B was 3.55%, 1 month B was 3.54%, 3 month STIBOR was 1.89% and 3 month P was 7.25%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at September 30, 2025.

<sup>(5)</sup> Par amount is presented for debt investments, while the number of shares or units or percentage of membership interests owned is presented for equity investments. Par amount is denominated in U.S. Dollars ("$" or "USD") unless otherwise noted, Euros ("EUR"), Great British Pounds ("GBP"), Australian Dollars ("AUD"), Swiss Franc ("CHF"), Norwegian Kroner ("NOK"), Swedish Krona ("SEK"),or Canadian Dollars ("CAD").

<sup>(6)</sup> Represents co-investments made with in accordance with the terms of the exemptive relief received from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). See Note 3 "Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions."

<sup>(7)</sup> The investment is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act (as defined below). The Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time of acquisition, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company's total assets. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate fair value of these securities is $1,806,905 or 14.6% of the Company's total assets.

<sup>(8)</sup> Position or portion thereof is an unfunded commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. The negative cost, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on a loan. The negative fair value, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount on a loan. See Note 8 "Commitments and Contingencies."

**Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of December 31, 2024 (continued)**

**(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)**

<sup>(1)</sup> Percentages are based on net assets.

<sup>(2)</sup> For Industry subtotal and percentage, see Note 4 "Investments."

<sup>(3)</sup> Represents the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Certain investments are subject to an interest rate floor. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by the larger of the floor or the reference to either Euribor ("E"), SOFR including SOFR adjustment, if any, ("S"), SONIA ("SN"), NIBOR ("N"), CORRA ("C"), SARON ("SARON"), BBSW ("B") or alternate base rate (commonly based on the U.S. Prime Rate ("P"), unless otherwise noted) at the borrower's option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. S loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month or 1 month S rates. As of December 31, 2024, the rate for 6 month S was 4.25%, 3 month S was 4.31%, 1 month S was 4.33%, 6 month E was 2.57%, 3 month E was 2.71%, 3 month SN was 4.70%, 3 month N was 4.68%, 3 month C was 3.15%, 3 month SARON was 0.45%, 3 month B was 4.42%, 1 month B was 4.32%, and 3 month P was 7.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2024.

<sup>(4)</sup> Par amount is presented for debt investments, while the number of shares or units owned is presented for equity investments. Par amount is denominated in U.S. Dollars ("$" or "USD") unless otherwise noted, Euros ("EUR"), Great British Pounds ("GBP"), Australian Dollars ("AUD"), Swiss Franc ("CHF"), Norwegian Kroner ("NOK"), or Canadian Dollars ("CAD").

<sup>(5)</sup> Assets are pledged as collateral to the Company's credit facilities. A single investment may be divided into parts that are individually pledged as collateral to separate credit facilities. See Note 6 "Debt."

<sup>(6)</sup> Represents co-investments made with in accordance with the terms of the exemptive relief received from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. See Note 3 "Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions."

<sup>(7)</sup> The investment is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act. The Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time of acquisition, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company's total assets. As of December 31, 2024, the aggregate fair value of these securities is $878,979 or 11.1% of the Company's total assets.

<sup>(8)</sup> The fair value of the investment was determined using significant unobservable inputs. See Note 5 "Fair Value Measurement."

<sup>(9)</sup> Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. The negative cost, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount on the loan. See Note 8 "Commitments and Contingencies."

<sup>(10)</sup> Position or portion thereof unsettled as of December 31, 2024.

<sup>(11)</sup> As defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), the investment is deemed to be an "affiliated person" of the Company because the Company owns, either directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the portfolio company's outstanding voting securities. See Note 3 "Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions."

<sup>(12)</sup> The investment includes an exit fee that is receivable upon repayment of the loan. See Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies."

<sup>(13)</sup> In exchange for the greater risk of loss, the "last-out" portion of the Company's unitranche loan investment generally earns a higher interest rate than the "first-out" portions. The "first-out" portion would generally receive priority with respect to payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder over the "last-out" portion.

<sup>(14)</sup> Non-income producing security.

<sup>(15)</sup> Securities exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may be deemed to be "restricted securities." As of December 31, 2024, the aggregate fair value of these securities is $5,372 or 0.1% of the Company's net assets. The initial acquisition dates have been included for such securities.

<sup>(16)</sup> The annualized seven-day yield as of December 31, 2024 is 4.42%.

<sup>(17)</sup> The investment is otherwise deemed to be an "affiliated person" of the Company. See Note 3 "Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions."

**Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp.**

**Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements**

**(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)**

**(Unaudited)**

**1. ORGANIZATION** 

Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp. (f/k/a Goldman Sachs Loan Fund LLC and Goldman Sachs Private Credit Fund LLC) (the "Company", which term refers to either Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp. or Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, as the context may require) is a Delaware corporation formed on March 25, 2022 that has elected to be treated, and expects to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and has elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act. On April 6, 2023, the Company elected to be regulated as a BDC, converted from a Delaware limited liability company into a Delaware corporation and commenced operations.

The Company's investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through direct originations of secured debt, including first lien debt, unitranche debt, including last-out portions of such loans, second lien debt, and unsecured debt, including mezzanine debt, as well as through select equity investments. The Company will also invest a portion of the portfolio in more liquid investments, such as broadly syndicated loans and other fixed-income securities, to provide the portfolio with additional liquidity.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. ("GSAM"), a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (including its predecessors, "GS & Co."), is the investment adviser (the "Investment Adviser") of the Company. The term "Goldman Sachs" refers to The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., together with GS & Co., GSAM and its other subsidiaries.

The Company is conducting an offering of the Company's Class I common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares" or "Class I shares"), on a continuous basis (the "Offering"). The offering and sale of common stock is exempt from registration in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and Regulation D and Regulation S thereunder, for offers and sales of securities that do not involve a public offering and for offers and sales of securities outside of the United States. The Company is currently only offering the Shares for sale. On April 15, 2025, the SEC granted to the Company and the Investment Adviser exemptive relief permitting the Company to issue and sell multiple classes of shares with varying sales loads and asset-based distribution and/or service fees.

Prior to and including April 6, 2023 (the "Initial Issuance Date"), the per share purchase price for the Shares in the Offering was $25.00 per share. After the Initial Issuance Date, the purchase price per share for each class of the Company's common stock will equal the net asset value ("NAV") per share, as of the effective date of the applicable monthly share purchase date.

Prior to the Initial Issuance Date, the Company held stockholders' funds received in connection with the Offering in an escrow account subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions (the "Escrow Conditions"). On the Initial Issuance Date, the Escrow Conditions were satisfied and the Company broke escrow in connection with the initial closing of the private offering of the Shares.

GS & Co. will assist the Company in conducting the Offering pursuant to agreements between the Company and GS & Co.

On December 19, 2022, the Company received a capital contribution of one thousand dollars from an affiliate of the Investment Adviser (the "Initial Member"). The Initial Member served as the sole owner of the Company's interests until the Initial Issuance Date. In connection with the Initial Issuance Date, such equity interests were cancelled.

**Merger with Goldman Sachs Middle Market Lending Corp. II**

On July 11, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Goldman Sachs Middle Market Lending Corp. II ("MMLC II") and GSAM. The Merger Agreement provided that, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), MMLC II would merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving company (the "Merger"). On October 14, 2025, the Company completed the Merger. For further information, see Note 12 "Subsequent Events".

**2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

**Basis of Presentation** 

The Company's functional currency is USD and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to Regulation S-X. This requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These consolidated financial statements reflect normal and recurring adjustments that in the opinion of the Company are necessary for the fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions included in the consolidated financial statements.

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

Certain financial information that is included in annual consolidated financial statements, including certain financial statement disclosures, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted herein. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 4, 2025. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year, any other interim period or any future year or period.

As an investment company, the Company applies the accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, *Financial Services – Investment Companies* ("ASC 946") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").

**Basis of Consolidation** 

As provided under ASC 946, the Company will not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the financial position and results of operations of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, GS Private Credit SPV Public I LLC ("SPV Public I"), GSCR Blocker I, LLC and GSCR Mott Street SPV LLC ("GSCR Mott Street"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

**Revenue Recognition** 

The Company records its investment transactions on a trade date basis, which is the date when the Company assumes the risks for gains and losses related to that instrument. Realized gains and losses are based on the specific identification method.

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums to par value on investments purchased are accreted and amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees, original issue discount ("OID") and market discounts or premiums are capitalized and amortized into interest income using the effective interest method or straight-line method, as applicable. Exit fees that are receivable upon repayment of a loan or debt security are amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income, for which the Company has earned the following:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

Fees received from portfolio companies (directors' fees, consulting fees, administrative fees, tax advisory fees and other similar compensation) are paid to the Company, unless, to the extent required by applicable law or exemptive relief, if any, therefrom, the Company only receives its allocable portion of such fees when invested in the same portfolio company as another Account (as defined in Note 3 "Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions") managed by the Investment Adviser.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Interest and dividend income are presented net of withholding tax, if any.

Certain investments may have contractual payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the principal amount or shares (if equity) of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon the investment being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable. If at any point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income.

Certain structuring fees, amendment fees, syndication fees and commitment fees are recorded as other income when earned. Administrative agent fees received by the Company are recorded as other income when the services are rendered over time.

Collateralized loan obligation ("CLO") equity investments, which are included in Structured Finance Obligation – Equity Instruments in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments, recognize interest income by utilizing an effective interest methodology based upon an effective yield utilizing projected cashflows, as required by ASC 325-40*, Beneficial Interest in Securitized Financial Assets.*

**Non-Accrual Investments** 

Investments are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal, interest or dividends will not be collected according to the applicable contractual terms. Accrued interest or dividends generally are reversed when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest or dividend payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest or dividends are paid and, in management's judgment, principal and interest or dividend payments are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this treatment if an investment has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had certain investments held in two portfolio companies on non-accrual status, which represented 0.2% and 0.2% of the total investments (excluding investments in money market fund, if any) at amortized cost and at fair value. As of December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any investments on non-accrual status.

**Investments** 

The Company carries its investments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), issued by the FASB, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is generally based on quoted market prices provided by independent price sources. In the absence of quoted market prices, investments are measured at fair value as determined by the Investment Adviser, as the valuation designee (the "Valuation Designee") designated by the board of directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors" or "Board"), pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act.

Due to the inherent uncertainties of valuation, certain estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been realized had a ready market for these investments existed, and these differences could be material. See Note 5 "Fair Value Measurement."

The Company generally invests in illiquid securities, including debt and equity investments, of middle-market companies. The Board of Directors has designated to the Investment Adviser day-to-day responsibilities for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Company's portfolio investments. Under valuation procedures approved by the Board of Directors and adopted by the Valuation Designee, market quotations are generally used to assess the value of the investments for which market quotations are readily available (as defined in Rule 2a-5). The Investment Adviser obtains these market quotations from independent pricing sources. If market quotations are not readily available, the Investment Adviser prices securities at the bid prices obtained from at least two brokers or dealers, if available; otherwise, the Investment Adviser obtains prices from a principal market maker or a primary market dealer. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, the Investment Adviser regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to independent pricing sources or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the valuation procedures. If the Valuation Designee believes any such market quotation does not reflect the fair value of an investment, it may independently value such investment in accordance with valuation procedures for investments for which market quotations are not readily available.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or for which market quotations are deemed not reflective of the fair value, the valuation procedures approved by the Board of Directors and adopted by the Valuation Designee, contemplate a multi-step valuation process conducted by the Investment Adviser each quarter and more frequently as needed. As the Valuation Designee, the Investment Adviser is primarily responsible for the valuation of the Company's assets, subject to the oversight of the Board of Directors, as described below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for the valuation of the portfolio investment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)The Valuation Designee also engages independent valuation firms (the "Independent Valuation Advisors") to provide independent valuations of the investments for which market quotations are not readily available or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of an investment. The Independent Valuation Advisors independently value such investments using quantitative and qualitative information. The Independent Valuation Advisors also provide analyses to support their valuation methodology and calculations. The Independent Valuation Advisors provide an opinion on a final range of values on such investments to the Valuation Designee. The Independent Valuation Advisors define fair value in accordance with ASC 820 and utilize valuation approaches including the market approach, the income approach or both. A portion of the portfolio is reviewed on a quarterly basis, and all investments in the portfolio for which market quotations are not readily available, or are readily available, but deemed not reflective of the fair value of an investment, are reviewed at least annually by an Independent Valuation Advisor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)The Independent Valuation Advisors' preliminary valuations are reviewed by the Investment Adviser and the Valuation Oversight Group (the "VOG"), a team that is part of the controllers group of Goldman Sachs. The Independent Valuation Advisors' valuation ranges are compared to the Investment Adviser's valuations to ensure the Investment Adviser's valuations are reasonable. The VOG presents the valuations to the Asset Management Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group of the Asset Management Valuation Committee (the "Asset Management Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group"), which is comprised of a number of representatives from different functions and areas of expertise related to GSAM's business and controls who are independent of the investment decision making process;

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)The Asset Management Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group reviews and preliminarily approves the fair valuations and makes fair valuation recommendations to the Asset Management Valuation Committee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5)The Asset Management Valuation Committee reviews the valuation information provided by the Asset Management Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group, the VOG, the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for valuations, and the Independent Valuation Advisors. The Asset Management Valuation Committee then assesses such valuation recommendations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6)Through the Asset Management Valuation Committee, the Valuation Designee discusses the valuations, provides written reports to the Board of Directors on at least a quarterly basis, and, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, determines the fair value of the investments in good faith, based on the inputs of the Asset Management Valuation Committee, the Asset Management Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group, the VOG, the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for valuations, and the Independent Valuation Advisors.

**Receivable/Payable From Investments Sold/Purchased**

Receivables/payables from investments sold/purchased consist of amounts receivable to or payable by the Company for transactions that have not settled as of the reporting date.

**Money Market Funds** 

Investments in money market funds are valued at NAV per share. See Note 3 "Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions."

**Cash** 

Cash consists of deposits held at State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Custodian"). As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held an aggregate cash balance of $126,228 and $120,377. Foreign currency of $7,650 and $9,660 (acquisition cost of $7,523 and $9,896) is included in cash as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**Foreign Currency Translation** 

Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates effective on the last business day of the period; and (ii) purchases and sales of investments, borrowings and repayments of such borrowings, income, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.

The Company does not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included within the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments. Fluctuations arising from the translation of non-investment assets and liabilities are included with the net change in unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency translations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Foreign security and currency translations may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.

**Derivatives** 

The Company recognizes its derivatives at fair value. The unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivatives is recorded on a net-by-counterparty basis (i.e., the net payable or receivable for derivative assets and liabilities for a given counterparty) and net of cash collateral received and posted in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities when a legal right of setoff exists under an enforceable netting agreement. Any over-collateralized amounts posted or received are included in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Other assets or Accrued expenses and other liabilities. Notional amounts and fair market values of derivatives are presented separately on the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

The Company has entered into interest rate swaps to more closely align the interest rates of the Company's fixed rate liabilities with its investment portfolio, which predominately consists of floating rate loans. The Company designated these interest rate swaps as the hedging instrument in a qualifying fair value hedging relationship for which it applies hedge accounting. Gains and losses on these interest rate swaps are included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and changes in the fair value of the hedged liabilities attributable to the risk of being hedged (i.e. interest rate risk) are reported as an adjustment to the carrying value of the liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 6 "Debt" and Note 7 "Derivatives" for further information about such fair value hedge accounting relationship.

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the Company's exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies. In a foreign currency forward contract, the Company agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market at the applicable forward rate. Purchases and settlements of foreign currency forward contracts having the same settlement date and counterparty are generally settled net and any realized gains or losses are recognized on the settlement date. The Company does not utilize hedge accounting for foreign currency forward contracts and, as such, the Company records changes in fair value of its foreign currency forward contracts in the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**Income Taxes** 

The Company recognizes tax positions in its consolidated financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A position that meets this standard is measured at the largest amount of benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon settlement. The Company reports any interest expense related to income tax matters in income tax expense, and any income tax penalties in Other general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company's tax positions have been reviewed based on applicable statutes of limitation for tax assessments, which may vary by jurisdiction, and based on such review, the Company has concluded that no additional provision for income tax is required in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is subject to potential examination by certain taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. The Company's tax positions are subject to ongoing interpretation of laws and regulations by taxing authorities.

The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2023. So long as the Company maintains its qualification for tax treatment as a RIC, it will generally not be required to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as dividends. As a result, any U.S. federal income tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Company's stockholders and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

To maintain its tax treatment as a RIC, the Company must meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders for each taxable year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (generally, its net ordinary income plus the excess of its realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction). In order for the Company not to be subject to U.S. federal excise taxes, it must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any net ordinary income and capital gains in excess of capital losses for preceding years that were not distributed during such years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on this income. If the Company chooses to do so, this generally would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to stockholders without reducing the Company's required distribution. The Company will accrue excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income as required.

Certain of the Company's consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. Income tax expense, if any, is included under the income category for which it applies in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

**Distributions**

Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company may pay distributions in excess of its taxable net investment income. This excess would be a tax-free return of capital in the period and reduce the stockholder's tax basis in its shares. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent they are charged or credited to paid-in capital in excess of par or distributable earnings, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Temporary and permanent differences are primarily attributable to differences in the tax treatment of certain loans and the tax characterization of income and non-deductible expenses. These differences are generally determined in conjunction with the preparation of the Company's annual RIC tax return. Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Board each month and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by the Investment Adviser. The Company may pay distributions to its stockholders in a year in excess of its net ordinary income and capital gains for that year and, accordingly, a portion of such distributions may constitute a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company intends to timely distribute to its stockholders substantially all of its annual taxable income for each year, except that the Company may retain certain net capital gains for reinvestment and, depending upon the level of the Company's taxable income earned in a year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following year and pay any applicable tax. The specific tax characteristics of the Company's distributions will be reported to stockholders after the end of the calendar year. All distributions will be subject to available funds, and no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to declare such distributions in future periods.

The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP") that provides for reinvestment of all cash distributions declared by the Board unless a stockholder elects to "opt out" of the plan. As a result, if the Board declares a cash distribution, then the stockholders who have not "opted out" of the DRIP will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional Shares, rather than receiving the cash distribution. If the distribution is subject to withholding tax as described above, only the net after-tax amount will be reinvested in additional Shares. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of Shares will generally be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions and, for this purpose, stockholders receiving distributions in the form of Shares will generally be treated as receiving distributions equal to the amount of cash that would have been received if the stockholders had received the distributions in cash. However, since the cash distributions of participants in the plan will be reinvested, those stockholders will not receive cash with which to pay any applicable taxes.

**Deferred Financing Costs and Debt Issuance Costs**

Deferred financing costs and debt issuance costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of and amendments to the Company's borrowings. These aforementioned costs are amortized using the straight-line method over each instrument's term. Deferred financing costs related to a revolving credit facility (as defined below) are presented separately as an asset on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferred debt issuance costs related to any notes are presented net against the outstanding debt balance on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

**Offering Costs**

Offering costs consist primarily of fees incurred in connection with the Offering, including legal, printing and other costs, as well as costs associated with the preparation of the Company's registration statement on Form 10. Offering costs are recognized as a deferred charge and are amortized on a straight line basis over 12 months.

**Segment Reporting**

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, the Company has determined that it operates through a single operating and reporting segment with the investment objectives to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation through direct origination of secured debt, unsecured debt and select equity investments. The chief operating decision maker (the "CODM") is comprised of the Company's chief executive officers, chief financial officer and chief operating officer. The CODM uses Net increase (decrease) in net assets from operations in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations to assess the Company's performance and allocate resources. The evaluation and assessment of this metric is used in implementing investment policy decisions, managing the Company's portfolio, evaluation of the Company's distribution policy and assessing the performance of the portfolio. As the Company's operations comprise of a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as "Total assets" and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**New Accounting Pronouncements** 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." This ASU requires additional disaggregation of certain expenses within the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements. This ASU is effective for the annual periods beginning in January 2027, and interim periods beginning in January 2028 under a prospective approach. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. Since this ASU only requires additional disclosures, adoption of this ASU will not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**3. SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** 

**Investment Management Agreement** 

The Company entered into an Investment Management Agreement, effective as of March 20, 2023 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Investment Management Agreement"), with the Investment Adviser.

Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, the Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of the Board of Directors, manages the Company's day-to-day investment related operations and provides investment management services to the Company. The Company pays the Investment Adviser a fee for its services under the Investment Management Agreement consisting of two components: a management fee (the "Management Fee") and an incentive fee (the "Incentive Fee").

Subject to applicable law and published SEC guidance, nothing contained in the Investment Management Agreement in any way precludes, restricts or limits the activities of the Investment Adviser or any of its respective subsidiaries or affiliated parties.

*Management Fee* 

The Management Fee is payable monthly in arrears. The Management Fee is equal to 0.1042% (i.e., an annual rate of 1.25%) of the value of the Company's net assets as of the beginning of the first calendar day of the applicable month. For purposes of the Investment Management Agreement, net assets means the Company's total assets less liabilities determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP. The Investment Adviser waives a portion of its Management Fee payable by the Company in an amount equal to the management fees it earns as an investment adviser for any affiliated money market funds in which the Company invests.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Management Fees amounted to $23,893 and $63,451 and the Investment Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive $14,609 and $28,204. As of September 30, 2025, $8,320 remained payable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, Management Fees amounted to $11,147 and $26,223 and the Investment Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive $2,136 and $4,627.

*Incentive Fee* 

The Incentive Fee consists of two components that are determined independently of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. A portion of the Incentive Fee is based on a percentage of the Company's income and a portion is based on a percentage of the Company's capital gains, each as described below.

*i. Incentive Fee Based on Income*

The portion based on the Company's income is based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns. "Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns" means, as the context requires, either the dollar value of, or percentage rate of return on the value of the Company's net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter from, interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company's operating expenses accrued for the quarter (including the Management Fee and any interest expense or fees on any credit facilities or outstanding debt and distributions paid on any issued and outstanding preferred shares, but excluding the incentive fee and any distribution and/or stockholder servicing fees).

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns include, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as OID, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns do not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company's net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter, is compared to a "hurdle rate" of return of 1.25% per quarter (5.0% annualized).

The Company will pay the Investment Adviser an incentive fee quarterly in arrears with respect to the Company's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns in each calendar quarter as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•No incentive fee based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns in any calendar quarter in which the Company's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns do not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.25% per quarter (5.0% annualized);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•100% of the dollar amount of the Company's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than a rate of return of 1.43% (5.72% annualized). The Company refers to this portion of the Company's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.43%) as the "catch-up"; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•12.5% of the dollar amount of the Company's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceed a rate of return of 1.43% (5.72% annualized).

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

These calculations are pro-rated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the relevant quarter.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Incentive Fees based on income amounted to $20,796 and $56,233, and the Investment Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive $13,400 and $34,400. As of September 30, 2025, $7,397 remained payable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, Incentive Fees based on income amounted to $11,912 and $27,213, and the Investment Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive $3,745 and $7,182.

*ii. Incentive Fee Based on Capital Gains*

The second component of the Incentive Fee, the capital gains incentive fee, is payable at the end of each calendar year in arrears. The amount payable equals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•12.5% of cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of such calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital gains as calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Each year, the fee paid for the capital gains incentive fee is net of the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee for all prior periods. The Company will accrue, but will not pay, a capital gains incentive fee with respect to unrealized appreciation because a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to the Investment Adviser if the Company was to sell the relevant investment and realize a capital gain.

The fees that are payable under the Investment Management Agreement for any partial period will be appropriately prorated.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company accrued Incentive Fees based on capital gains under GAAP of $0 and $0, which were not realized. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company accrued Incentive Fees based on capital gains under GAAP of $(797) and $706, which were not realized.

**Administration and Custodian Fees** 

The Company has entered into an administration agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Administrator") under which the Administrator provides various accounting and administrative services to the Company. The Company will pay the Administrator fees for its services as the Company determines are commercially reasonable in its sole discretion. The Company will also reimburse the Administrator for all reasonable expenses. To the extent that the Administrator outsources any of its functions, the Administrator pays any compensation associated with such functions. Administration and Custodian fees are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as Other general and administrative expenses.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Administrator and the Custodian of $1,939 and $4,888. As of September 30, 2025, $1,677 remained payable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Administrator and the Custodian of $899 and $2,115.

**Transfer Agent Fees** 

The Company has entered into a transfer agency agreement, with GS & Co. pursuant to which GS & Co. serves as the Company's transfer agent ("Transfer Agent"), registrar and distribution paying agent. The Company pays the Transfer Agent fees at an annual rate of 0.05% of the average of the Company's NAV at the end of the then-current quarter and the prior calendar quarter (and, in the case of the Company's first quarter, the Company's NAV as of such quarter-end). Transfer Agent fees are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as Other general and administrative expenses.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Transfer Agent of $941 and $2,469. As of September 30, 2025, $941 remained payable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Transfer Agent of $437 and $1,018.

<sup>(1)</sup> Gross additions may include increases in the cost basis of investments resulting from new portfolio investments, PIK, the accretion of discounts, the exchange of one or more existing securities for one or more new securities and the movement of an existing portfolio company into this category from a different category.

**Due to Affiliates** 

The Investment Adviser pays certain general and administrative expenses, including legal expenses, on behalf of the Company in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $1,811 and $1,018, included within Accrued expenses and other liabilities and there were $476 and $0, included within Interest and other debt expenses payable that were paid by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates on behalf of the Company.

**Co-Investment Activity** 

In certain circumstances, the Company and certain other client accounts managed by the Investment Adviser (collectively with the Company, the "Accounts", which may include proprietary accounts of Goldman Sachs) can make negotiated co-investments pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC permitting it to do so. On May 21, 2025, the SEC granted the exemptive relief (the "Relief") to the Investment Adviser, the BDCs advised by the Investment Adviser and certain other affiliated applicants, which superseded the prior co-investment exemptive relief received on November 16, 2022, as amended on June 25, 2024 (the "Prior Relief"). If the Investment Adviser forms other funds in the future, the Company may co-invest alongside such other affiliates, subject to compliance with the Relief, applicable regulations and regulatory guidance, as well as applicable allocation procedures. Any such co-investments are subject to the applicable conditions of the Relief. Under the Relief, expenses of a single Account will be covered by that Account alone if those expenses were incurred solely by that Account due to its unique circumstances, such as legal and compliance expenses. Under the terms of the Relief, a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act) of the Company's independent directors must make certain conclusions in connection with certain co-investment transactions, including co-investment transactions in which an affiliate of the Company is an existing investor in the portfolio company, non-pro rata incremental investments and non-pro rata dispositions of investments, and the Board is required to maintain oversight of the Company's participation in the co-investment program.

**Placement Agent Agreement** 

The Company has entered into an agreement with GS & Co. (the "Placement Agent"), pursuant to which GS & Co. will assist the Company in conducting the Offering. GS & Co. has entered into or will enter into sub-placement agreements with various sub-placement agents to assist in conducting the Offering. Stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees will be payable to the Placement Agent. The Placement Agent may also be compensated by the Investment Adviser, in its discretion, for certain services, including promotional and marketing support, stockholders servicing, operational and recordkeeping, sub-accounting, networking or administrative services. These payments are made out of the Investment Adviser's own resources and/or assets, including from the revenues or profits derived from the advisory fees the Investment Adviser receives from the Company.

**Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement**

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

The Company entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement (the "Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement") with the Investment Adviser. Pursuant to the Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement, the Investment Adviser may elect to pay certain of the Company's expenses on its behalf (each such payment, an "Expense Payment"), provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or distribution and/or stockholder servicing fees of the Company. Any expense payment must be paid by the Investment Adviser to the Company in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds and/or offset against amounts due from the Company to the Investment Adviser or its affiliates.

Following any calendar month in which Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the Company's stockholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in such calendar month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as "Excess Operating Funds"), the Company will pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, to the Investment Adviser until such time as all expense payments made by the Investment Adviser to the Company within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Company will be referred to herein as a "Reimbursement Payment."

"Available Operating Funds" means the sum of (i) the Company's net investment company income and (ii) dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (ii) are not included under clause (i) above).

The Company's obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment will automatically become a liability of the Company on the last business day of the applicable calendar month, except to the extent the Investment Adviser has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month, in which case such waived amount will remain as unreimbursed Expense Payments reimbursable in future months. The Investment Adviser has waived its right to receive such payments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, as applicable.

The following table presents a summary of Expense Payments and the related Reimbursement Payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024:

**5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT** 

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price).

The Company carries its investments in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

**Basis of Fair Value Measurement** 

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments included in Level 1 include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments in this category include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets, government and agency securities and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments that are included in this category include investments in privately held entities and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies" should be read in conjunction with the information outlined below.

The table below presents the valuation techniques and the nature of significant inputs generally used in determining the fair value of Level 2 and Level 3 Instruments.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Level 2 Instruments** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs** |
| **Equity and Fixed Income** | The types of instruments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active but are valued based on quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency include commercial paper, most government agency obligations, most corporate debt securities, certain mortgage-backed securities, certain bank loans, less liquid publicly listed equities, certain state and municipal obligations, certain money market instruments and certain loan commitments.<br>Valuations of Level 2 Equity and Fixed Income instruments can be verified to quoted prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Consideration is given to the nature of the quotations (e.g. indicative or firm) and the relationship of recent market activity to the prices provided from alternative pricing sources. |

---

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Derivative Contracts** | Over-the-counter ("OTC") derivatives (both centrally cleared and bilateral) are valued using market transactions and other market evidence whenever possible, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value an OTC derivative depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. The Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Level 3 Instruments** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs** |
| **Bank Loans, Corporate Debt, and Other Debt Obligations** | Valuations are generally based on discounted cash flow techniques, for which the significant inputs are the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, market yields and recovery assumptions. The significant inputs are generally determined based on relative value analyses, which incorporate comparisons both to credit default swaps that reference the same underlying credit risk and to other debt instruments for the same issuer for which observable prices or broker quotes are available. Other valuation methodologies are used as appropriate including market comparables, transactions in similar instruments and recovery/liquidation analysis. |
| **Equity** | Recent third-party investments or pending transactions are considered to be the best evidence for any change in fair value. When these are not available, the following valuation methodologies are used, as appropriate and available: (i) Transactions in similar instruments; (ii) Discounted cash flow techniques; (iii) Third party appraisals; and (iv) Industry multiples and public comparables.<br>Evidence includes recent or pending reorganizations (for example, merger proposals, tender offers and debt restructurings) and significant changes in financial metrics, including: (i) Current financial performance as compared to projected performance; (ii) Capitalization rates and multiples; and (iii) Market yields implied by transactions of similar or related assets. |

The table below presents the ranges of significant unobservable inputs used to value the Company's Level 3 assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. These ranges represent the significant unobservable inputs that were used in the valuation of each type of instrument, but they do not represent a range of values for any one instrument. For example, the lowest discount in 1st Lien/Senior Secured Debt is appropriate for valuing that specific debt investment, but may not be appropriate for valuing any other debt investments in this asset class. Accordingly, the ranges of inputs presented below do not represent uncertainty in, or possible ranges of, fair value measurements of the Company's Level 3 assets.

<sup>(1)</sup> As of September 30, 2025, included within the fair value of Level 3 assets of $8,496,860 is an amount of $1,406,078 for which the Investment Adviser did not develop the unobservable inputs (examples include single source broker quotations, third party pricing, and prior transactions). The income approach was used in the determination of fair value for $7,071,291 or 83.3% of Level 3 bank loans, corporate debt, and other debt obligations.

<sup>(2)</sup> As of December 31, 2024, included within the fair value of Level 3 assets of $5,398,349 is an amount of $1,419,504 for which the Investment Adviser did not develop the unobservable inputs (examples include single source broker quotations, third party pricing, and prior transactions). The income approach was used in the determination of fair value for $3,973,473 or 73.7% of Level 3 bank loans, corporate debt, and other debt obligations.

<sup>(3)</sup> The fair value of any one instrument may be determined using multiple valuation techniques. For example, market comparable and discounted cash flows may be used together to determine fair value. Therefore, the Level 3 balance encompasses both of these techniques.

<sup>(4)</sup> The range for an asset category consisting of a single investment, if any, is not meaningful and therefore has been excluded.

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

<sup>(5)</sup> Weighted average for an asset category consisting of multiple investments is calculated by weighting the significant unobservable input by the relative fair value of the investment. Weighted average for an asset category consisting of a single investment represents the significant unobservable input used in the fair value of the investment.

<sup>(6)</sup> Enterprise value of portfolio company as a multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA").

As noted above, the income and market approaches were used in the determination of fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach are the discount rate or market yield used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which include both future principal and interest payments. An increase in the discount rate or market yield would result in a decrease in the fair value. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates or market yields is risk of default, rating of the investment, call provisions and comparable company investments. The significant unobservable inputs used in the market approach are based on market comparable transactions and market multiples of publicly traded comparable companies. Increases in market comparable transactions or market multiples would result in an increase in the fair value.

The 2030 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2030 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.250% per year, payable semi-annually, commencing on November 6, 2025. The 2030 Notes will mature on May 6, 2030 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at the Company's option at any time or from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into an interest rate swap to more closely align the interest rates of the Company's fixed rate liabilities with the investment portfolio, which predominately consists of floating rate loans. The cash flows pertaining to the interest rate swap are settled semi-annually. The Company designated this interest rate swap and the 2030 Notes in a qualifying fair value hedging relationship for which it applies hedge accounting. The carrying value of the 2030 Notes is inclusive of the adjustment for the changes in fair value of these notes attributable to the risk being hedged.

The following table presents the components of the carrying value of the 2030 Notes:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **September 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| Principal amount of debt | $600000 | $— |

**Short-Term Borrowings**

From time to time, the Company may engage in sale/buy-back agreements with Macquarie Bank Limited ("Macquarie"), which are a type of secured borrowing. The amount, interest rate and terms of these agreements will be individually negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Each transaction (each, a "Short-Term Borrowing") is intended to finance an underlying investment of the Company. Under each Short-Term Borrowing, the Company remains the lender of record of the relevant underlying investment for the duration of such transaction but the Company sells to Macquarie a participation interest in such underlying investment and concurrently enters into an agreement to repurchase from Macquarie the same participation interest at an agreed-upon price (which price includes the interest on such borrowing) at a future date. The future repurchase date will not be later than 90 days from the date it was sold to Macquarie (unless such 90-day date is mutually extended by the Company and Macquarie).

To secure the Company's obligations under each Short-Term Borrowing, the Company grants to Macquarie a back-up security interest in the Company's underlying investment associated with the particular borrowing.

In accordance with ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing, the Short-Term Borrowings meet the criteria for secured borrowings. Accordingly, the investment financed by these agreements remains on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset, and the Company records a liability to reflect its obligation to a third party, which is reported as debt on the Company's Consolidated Statements of

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

Assets and Liabilities. The Company's obligation is secured by the respective investment that is the subject of the relevant Short-Term Borrowing. Interest expense associated with the Short-Term Borrowings is reported on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations within Interest and other debt expense. There were no Short-Term Borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**7. DERIVATIVES**

The Company has entered into interest rate swaps to help mitigate interest rate risk associated with the Company's liabilities, as well as more closely align the interest rates of the Company's fixed rate liabilities with its investment portfolio, which predominately consists of floating rate loans.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Company mitigate its counterparty risk, the Company may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or a similar agreement with its derivative counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Company and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including interest rate swaps, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

The Company minimizes counterparty credit risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that it believes to be in good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

The table below presents the average notional amounts, as an indicator for volume, for interest rate swaps:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Three Months Ended** | **For the Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **September 30,<br>2025** | **September 30,<br>2025** |
| Interest rate swaps | $500000 | $200000 |

---

The Company's net exposure to interest rate swaps that are subject to ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements presented on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities, was as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **September 30, 2025** | **September 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** | **December 31, 2024** |
|  | **Derivative Asset** | **Derivative Liabilities** | **Derivative Asset** | **Derivative Liabilities** |
| Interest rate swaps | $3122 | $— | $— | $— |
| Cash collateral netting <sup>(1)</sup> | (420) |  |  |  |
| **Net Amount** <sup>(2)</sup> | $2702 | $— | $— | $— |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Amount excludes excess cash collateral received or paid, if any.

<sup>(2)</sup> Net amount represents the net amount due (to) from counterparty in the event of a default based on the contractual offset rights under the agreement. Net amount excludes any over-collateralized amounts.

*Hedging*

The Company designated its interest rate swaps as the hedging instrument in a qualifying fair value hedging relationship for which it applies hedge accounting.

For the interest rate swaps designated in qualifying fair value hedging relationships, the gains and losses on these interest rate swaps and the changes in the fair value of the hedged liabilities attributable to the risk being hedged (i.e. interest rate risk) are included in Interest and other debt expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The table below presents the impact to the Consolidated Statements of Operations from derivative assets and liabilities designated in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Three Months Ended** | **For the Nine Months Ended** |
|  | **September 30,<br>2025** | **September 30,<br>2025** |
| Interest rate swaps | $3122 | $3122 |
| Hedged liabilities | (3103) | (3103) |

**8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** 

**Commitments** 

The Company may enter into investment commitments through executed credit agreements or commitment letters. In many circumstances for executed commitment letters, borrower acceptance and final terms are subject to transaction-related contingencies. The Company may commit to issue standby letters of credit in connection with an investment. In the event a letter of credit is funded, the Company would be obligated under the terms of the relevant credit agreement to fund a portion of the letter of credit, for a period of time, on behalf of the Accounts that also have a commitment to the investment. The Accounts would be obligated to reimburse the Company as set forth in the relevant credit agreement. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has committed to fund letters of credit of $23,148 on behalf of the Accounts. As of September 30, 2025, the Company believed that it had adequate financial resources to satisfy its unfunded commitments. The Company had the following unfunded commitments by investment types:

**Distributions to Common Stockholders**

The Company has adopted a DRIP that provides for the automatic reinvestment of all cash distributions declared by the Board of Directors, unless a stockholder elects to "opt out" of the DRIP. As a result, if the Board of Directors declares a cash distribution, then the stockholders who have not "opted out" of the DRIP will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution. If an investor participates in the DRIP, the cash distributions attributable to the class of shares that the investor purchased in our primary offering will be automatically invested in additional shares of the same class. The purchase price for shares purchased under the Company's DRIP will be equal to the most recent available NAV per share for such shares at the time the distribution is payable. The following table summarizes the distributions declared on the Shares and Shares distributed pursuant to the DRIP to stockholders who had not opted out of the DRIP:

**Share Repurchase Program**

Subject to the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, the Company intends to maintain a share repurchase program, pursuant to which it intends to offer to repurchase, in each quarter, up to 5% of the Shares outstanding (by number of shares) as of the close of the previous calendar quarter. The Company's Board of Directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program if it deems such action to be in the best interest of the Company and the best interest of the Company's stockholders. As a result, share repurchases may not be available each quarter. The Company intends to conduct such repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the Investment Company Act. All Shares purchased pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued shares.

Under the share repurchase program, to the extent the Company offers to repurchase Shares in any particular quarter, the Company expects to repurchase Shares pursuant to tender offers using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the applicable quarter, except that Shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be subject to an "early repurchase deduction" of 2% of the aggregate NAV of the Shares repurchased (an "Early Repurchase Deduction"). The one-year holding period is measured as of the subscription closing date immediately following the prospective repurchase date and does not include shares received under the Company's DRIP. The Early Repurchase Deduction may be waived by the Company in the case of repurchase requests arising from the death, divorce or qualified disability of the holders. In addition, the Company's Shares may be sold to certain foreign feeder vehicles primarily created to hold the Company's Shares that in turn offer interests in such feeder vehicles to non-U.S. persons. The Company expects to conduct such offerings pursuant to available exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. For such foreign feeder vehicles and similar arrangements in certain foreign markets, the Company may not apply, in whole or in part, the Early Repurchase Deduction and may otherwise modify the Early Repurchase Deduction, with respect to such foreign feeder vehicles or underlying investors, often because of administrative or their systems limitations. The Early Repurchase Deduction will be retained by the Company for the benefit of remaining stockholders.

The following table presents the share repurchases completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

Please see "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with this discussion and analysis. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking information due to factors discussed under "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" appearing elsewhere in this report.*

**OVERVIEW** 

We are a specialty finance company that is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). In addition, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC"), and we expect to qualify annually for tax treatment as a RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2023. From our commencement of investment operations on April 6, 2023 through September 30, 2025, we have originated approximately $14.90 billion in aggregate principal amount of Private Credit Investments (as defined below) and related equity prior to any subsequent exits and repayments.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. Our investment strategy is consistent with that of the broader Goldman Sachs Asset Management Private Credit platform, with a focus on capital preservation and capital appreciation, and includes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Leveraging Goldman Sachs Asset Management Private Credit's position within Goldman Sachs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Direct origination with borrowers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Prudent investment selection with intensive due diligence and credit analysis;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Provision of large-sized commitments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Structuring expertise with a focus on risk mitigation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Rigorous portfolio management; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Focus on companies with attractive business fundamentals.

Under normal circumstances, we will invest at least 80% of our total assets (which include net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes) in private credit instruments, which may include loans, notes, bonds and other corporate debt securities issued by corporate issuers ("Private Credit Investments"). If we change our 80% requirement, we will provide stockholders with at least 60 days' notice of such change.

We primarily hold directly originated, first lien senior secured, floating rate debt of companies located primarily in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in non-U.S. jurisdictions. We may also invest, to a lesser extent, in broadly syndicated loans, second lien loans, unsecured, subordinated or payment-in-kind ("PIK") debt, equity and debt tranches of collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), including CLOs that hold corporate debt, and equity and equity-like instruments. We also invest a portion of our portfolio in more liquid investments ("Liquid Investments"), such as broadly syndicated loans and other fixed-income securities, to provide the portfolio with additional liquidity.

We invest primarily in private companies based in the United States, but we also invest, to a lesser extent, in non-U.S. based companies (subject to compliance with BDC requirements to invest at least 70% of our assets in U.S. companies). We focus our lending across a spectrum of directly sourced opportunities in companies ranging from lower middle market to large capitalization in size. We may invest in companies of any size or capitalization.

We generally lead the origination of our investments as the primary lender, and we may participate in club deals (which are generally investments made by a small group of firms). Subject to the limitations of the Investment Company Act, we may invest in loans or other securities, the proceeds of which may refinance or otherwise repay debt or securities of companies whose debt is owned by other Goldman Sachs credit funds or affiliates. We also invest alongside institutional and retail-focused private credit Accounts, which may include proprietary accounts of Goldman Sachs. For additional information, see "*Item 1. Business—Allocation of Investment Opportunities—Co-Investments Alongside Goldman Sachs and Other Accounts, and the Relief*" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In addition, we expect to acquire or originate revolving credit facilities from time to time in connection with our investments in other assets.

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

Our investment strategy also allocates a portion of the overall portfolio to Liquid Investments to provide the portfolio with additional liquidity and to manage our payment obligations under our share repurchase program. Investment decisions related to Liquid Investments are made by the Goldman Sachs Asset Management High Yield and Bank Loan team within the Global Fixed Income and Liquidity Solutions group of Goldman Sachs Asset Management. Liquid Investments may include senior secured loans, senior secured high yield bonds, senior unsecured high yield bonds, and fixed-income ETFs and government securities. We use these investments to maintain liquidity for our share repurchase program and manage cash before investing subscription proceeds into originated loans, while also seeking attractive investment returns. Prior to raising or investing sufficient capital, the portfolio may display a greater percentage of assets within Liquid Investments or government securities than we otherwise would expect for a fully invested portfolio.

We employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of the Investment Adviser, but we intend to comply with the limitations set forth in the Investment Company Act, which currently allows us to borrow up to $2 of debt for each $1 of equity. We intend to use leverage in the form of borrowings, including loans from financial institutions as well as the issuance of debt securities. We may also use leverage in the form of preferred shares. In determining whether to borrow money, we will analyze the maturity, covenant package and rate structure of the proposed borrowings as well as the risks of such borrowings compared to our investment outlook. We would expect any such leverage, if incurred, to increase the total capital available for investment by us.

For a discussion of the competitive landscape we face, please see "*Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Competition—We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities*" and "*Item 1. Business—Competitive Advantages*" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**KEY COMPONENTS OF OPERATIONS** 

***Revenues*** 

We generate revenues in the form of interest income on debt investments and, to a lesser extent, fee income and capital gains and distributions, if any, on equity securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. Some of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or PIK income. We expect that the principal amount of the debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest generally will become due at the maturity date.

We generate revenues primarily through receipt of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring, syndication, exit fees or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. Portfolio company fees (directors' fees, consulting fees, administrative fees, tax advisory fees and other similar compensation) will be paid to us, unless, to the extent required by applicable law or exemptive relief, if any, therefrom, we receive our allocable portion of such fees when invested in the same portfolio company as other Accounts. We do not expect to receive material fee income as it is not our principal investment strategy. We record contractual prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments, if any, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments, if any, is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Interest and dividend income are presented net of withholding tax, if any. CLO equity investments recognize interest income by utilizing an effective interest methodology based upon an effective yield utilizing projected cashflows.

***Expenses*** 

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of a management fee (the "Management Fee") and an incentive fee (the "Incentive Fee") to our Investment Adviser, legal and other professional fees, interest and other debt expenses and other operating related expenses. The Management Fee and Incentive Fee compensate our Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, structuring, and monitoring our investments. We bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions, including in accordance with the Investment Management Agreement.

Our Investment Adviser pays all costs incurred by it in connection with the performance of its duties under the Investment Management Agreement. Our Investment Adviser pays the compensation and expenses of all its personnel and makes available, without expense to us, the services of such of its partners, officers and employees as may duly be elected as our officers or directors, subject to their individual consent to serve and to any limitations imposed by law. Our Investment Adviser is not required to pay any of our expenses other than those specifically allocated to it, including as set forth below. In particular, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, our Investment Adviser is not required to pay:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•organization and offering expenses associated with the private offering of our Class I stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares" or "Class I shares") and other securities (including legal, accounting, printing, mailing, subscription processing and filing fees and expenses and other offering expenses, including costs associated with technology integration between the Company's systems and those of participating intermediaries, reasonable bona fide due diligence expenses of participating intermediaries supported by detailed and itemized invoices, costs in connection with preparing sales materials and other marketing expenses, design and website expenses, fees and expenses of GS & Co., the Company's transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent"), fees to attend retail seminars sponsored by participating intermediaries, if any, and costs, expenses and reimbursements for travel, meals,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•fees and expenses incurred by us in connection with membership in investment company organizations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•brokers' commissions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•fees and expenses associated with calculating our net asset value ("NAV") (including the costs and expenses of any independent valuation firm);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•taxes or governmental fees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•costs of holding stockholder meetings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the fees or disbursements of custodians of our assets, including expenses incurred in the performance of any obligations enumerated by our certificate of incorporation or bylaws insofar as they govern agreements with any such custodian;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•costs incurred in connection with any claim, litigation, arbitration, mediation, government investigation or dispute in connection with our business and the amount of any judgment or settlement paid in connection therewith, or the enforcement of our rights against any person and indemnification or contribution expenses payable by us to any person and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of our business.

Our Investment Adviser is also not required to pay expenses of activities which are primarily intended to result in sales of our Shares, including all costs and expenses associated with the preparation and distribution of any private placement memorandum, subscription agreements, registration statements, prospectuses or stockholder application forms, including any amendments, restatements and/or supplements thereto.

Our Investment Adviser may impose a voluntary cap on the amount of expenses that will be borne by us on a monthly or annual basis. Any such expense cap may be increased, decreased, waived or eliminated at any time at our Investment Adviser's sole discretion.

To the extent that expenses to be borne by us pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement are paid by our Investment Adviser, we will reimburse our Investment Adviser for such expenses, provided, however, that our Investment Adviser may elect, from time to time and in its sole discretion, to bear certain of our expenses set forth above, including organizational and other expenses.

Pursuant to the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement, dated as of March 20, 2023 (the "Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement") with the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser may elect to pay certain of our expenses on our behalf, provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or distribution and/or stockholder servicing fees of the Company. We may reimburse the Investment Adviser for such advanced expenses only if certain conditions are met. See Note 3 "Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement" in our consolidated financial statements included in this report. Any reimbursements will not exceed actual expenses incurred by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates.

From time to time, Goldman Sachs Asset Management (in its capacity as the Investment Adviser) or its affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services. We will reimburse Goldman Sachs Asset Management (in its capacity as the Investment Adviser) or such affiliates thereof for any such amounts paid on our behalf. From time to time, Goldman Sachs Asset Management (in its capacity as the Investment Adviser) may defer or waive fees and/or rights to be reimbursed for expenses. All of the foregoing expenses will ultimately be borne by our stockholders.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or to decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.

**Leverage** 

As a BDC, we are permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of shares of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage ratio, as defined under the Investment Company Act, is at least equal to 150% immediately after each such issuance. The Small Business Credit Availability Act modified the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act to reduce the required asset coverage ratio applicable to BDCs from 200% to 150%, subject to certain approval and disclosure requirements. Our board of directors (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") and the initial member approved the application of the 150% asset coverage ratio to us in accordance with the requirements of the Investment Company Act. While the leverage we employ may be greater or less than these levels from time to

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

time, we intend to comply with the limitations set forth in the Investment Company Act, which currently allows us to borrow up to $2 of debt for each $1 of equity. In addition, except in limited circumstances, while any indebtedness and senior securities remain outstanding, we must make provisions to prohibit any distribution to our stockholders or the repurchase of such securities or stock unless we meet the applicable asset coverage ratios at the time of the distribution or repurchase. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value of our total assets for temporary or emergency purposes without regard to asset coverage. A loan is presumed to be made for temporary purposes if it is repaid within 60 days and is not extended or renewed; otherwise, it is presumed not to be for temporary purposes. For a discussion of the risks associated with leverage, see "*Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Legal and Regulatory Matters—Regulations governing our operations as a BDC affect our ability to, and the way in which we, raise additional capital. These constraints may hinder our Investment Adviser's ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and to achieve our investment objective*" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

We employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of the Investment Adviser, but we intend to comply with the limitations set forth in the Investment Company Act, which currently allows us to borrow up to $2 of debt for each $1 of equity. We use leverage in the form of borrowings, including loans from financial institutions as well as the issuance of debt securities. We also use leverage in the form of preferred shares. In determining whether to borrow money, we analyze the maturity, covenant package and rate structure of the proposed borrowings as well as the risks of such borrowings compared to our investment outlook. We expect any such leverage, if incurred, to increase the total capital available for investment by the Company.

Our leverage may take the form of revolving or term loans from financial institutions, such as the Truist Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below), the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below), and the MS Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below, and together with the Truist Revolving Credit Facility and the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility, collectively, the "Revolving Credit Facilities"), debt securities, such as secured or unsecured bonds, including the 2028 Notes and 2030 Notes (each as defined below), securitization of portions of our investment portfolio, preferred shares and/or reverse repurchase agreements (including short term participations or pledges of our directly originated debt positions). The Revolving Credit Facilities and other leverage techniques described herein allow us to borrow money and lever our investment portfolio, subject to the limitations of the Investment Company Act, with the objective of increasing our yield. This is known as "leverage." The use of leverage magnifies returns, including losses. See "*Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Structure—We borrow money, which may magnify the potential for gain or loss and may increase the risk of investing in us.*" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Certain trading practices and investments, such as reverse repurchase agreements, may be considered borrowings or involve leverage and thus may be subject to Investment Company Act restrictions. Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered borrowings for these purposes. Practices and investments that may involve leverage but are not considered borrowings are not subject to the Investment Company Act's asset coverage requirement. The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on the assessment by our Investment Adviser and our Board of Directors of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing.

<sup>(1)</sup> The weighted average yield of our portfolio does not represent the total return to our stockholders.

<sup>(2)</sup> Computed based on (a) the annual actual interest rate or yield earned plus amortization of fees and discounts on the performing debt and other income producing investments as of the reporting date, divided by (b) the total investments (including investments on non-accrual status and non-income producing investments) at amortized cost or fair value. This calculation excludes investments that are unsettled as of period-end as the interest rate associated with the investment is not known prior to the settlement date.

<sup>(3)</sup> The calculation includes incremental yield earned on the "last-out" portion of the unitranche loan investments.

<sup>(4)</sup> Computed based on (a) the effective yield, if any, for each income-producing investment, divided by (b) the total investments (including investments on non-accrual status and non-income producing investments) at amortized cost or fair value.

<sup>(5)</sup> Computed based on (a) the stated coupon rate, if any, for each income-producing investment, divided by (b) the total investments (including investments on non-accrual status and non-income producing investments) at amortized cost or fair value.

As of September 30, 2025, the total portfolio weighted average yield measured at amortized cost and fair value was 8.8% and 8.9%, as compared to 9.5% and 9.5% as of December 31, 2024. The decrease within First Lien/Last-Out Unitranche weighted average yield at amortized cost and fair value was primarily driven by investment activity.

As of September 30, 2025, the Liquid Investments portfolio weighted average yield measured at amortized cost and fair value was 6.8% and 7.0%, compared to 7.5% and 7.5% as of December 31, 2024.

The following table presents certain selected information regarding our investment portfolio (excluding investments in money market funds, if any):

<sup>(1)</sup> Measured on a fair value basis. This excludes investments, if any, placed on non-accrual status.

<sup>(2)</sup> Includes income producing preferred stock investments, if applicable.

<sup>(3)</sup> Includes all Private Credit Investments for which fair value is determined by the Investment Adviser, as the valuation designee (the "Valuation Designee") designated by the Board of Directors, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act. Figures are derived from the financial statements most recently validated by the Investment Adviser. LTV is calculated as net debt through each respective loan tranche divided by estimated enterprise value or value of the underlying collateral of the portfolio company. Weighted average LTV is weighted based on the fair value of the total applicable private debt investments.

<sup>(4)</sup> Includes all Private Credit Investments for which fair value is determined by the Investment Adviser, as the Valuation Designee designated by the Board of Directors, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act. For a particular portfolio company, we calculate the level of contractual indebtedness net of cash ("net debt") owed by the portfolio company and compare that amount to measures of cash flow available to service the net debt. To calculate net debt, we include debt that is both senior and pari passu to the tranche of debt owned by us but exclude debt that is legally and contractually subordinated in ranking to the debt owned by us. We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of our portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual rights of repayment of the tranche of debt owned by us relative to other senior and junior creditors of a portfolio company. We typically calculate cash flow available for debt service at a portfolio company by taking EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month period. Weighted average net debt to EBITDA is weighted based on the fair value of our applicable Private Credit Investments, excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

For a particular portfolio company, we also calculate the level of contractual interest expense owed by the portfolio company and compare that amount to EBITDA. We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of our portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual interest obligations of the portfolio company. Weighted average interest coverage is weighted based on the fair value of our applicable performing Private Credit Investments, excluding investments where interest coverage may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

Median EBITDA is based on our applicable Private Credit Investments, excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

Portfolio company statistics are derived from the most recently available financial statements of each portfolio company as of the reported end date. Statistics of the portfolio companies have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk represented 8.7% and 11.8% of total Private Credit Investments at fair value.

Our Investment Adviser monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company on an ongoing basis to determine if it is meeting its respective business plan and to assess the appropriate course of action for each portfolio company. Our Investment Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include: (i) assessment of success in adhering to the portfolio company's business plan and compliance with covenants; (ii) periodic or regular contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor, to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments; (iii) comparisons to our other portfolio companies in the industry, if any; (iv) attendance at and participation in Board meetings or presentations by portfolio companies; and (v) review of monthly and quarterly financial statements and financial projections of portfolio companies.

As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Adviser also employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Investment Adviser grades the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 4 no less frequently than quarterly. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account under certain circumstances the performance of the portfolio company's business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The grading system for our investments is as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•*Grade 1* investments involve the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The trends and risk factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally favorable, which may include the performance of the portfolio company or a potential exit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•*Grade 2* investments involve a level of risk to our initial cost basis that is similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. This portfolio company is generally performing as expected and the risk factors to our ability to ultimately recoup the cost of our investment are neutral to favorable. All investments or acquired investments in new portfolio companies are initially assessed a grade of 2;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•*Grade 3* investments indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has increased materially since origination or acquisition, including as a result of factors such as declining performance and non-compliance with debt covenants; however, payments are generally not more than 120 days past due; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•*Grade 4* investments indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has substantially increased since origination or acquisition, and the portfolio company likely has materially declining performance. For debt investments with an investment grade of 4, in most cases, most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. For investments graded 4, it is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis upon exit.

Our Investment Adviser grades the investments in our portfolio at least quarterly and it is possible that the grade of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments graded 3 or 4, the Investment Adviser enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company. The following table shows the composition of our portfolio (excluding investments in money market funds, if any) on the 1 to 4 grading scale:

---

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Amount rounds to less than 0.1%.

The increase in investments with a Grade 1 investment performance rating was driven by investments with an aggregate fair value of $45.14 million being upgraded from a Grade 2 investment performance rating due to potential exits. The increase in investments with a Grade 4 investment performance rating was primarily driven by investments with an aggregate fair value of $17.78 million being downgraded from a Grade 2 investment performance rating due to financial underperformance.

Investments are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal, interest or dividends will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Accrued interest or dividends generally are reversed when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest or dividend payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. We may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest or dividends are paid and, in management's judgment, principal and interest or dividend payments are likely to remain current.

<sup>(1)</sup> For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, Other, net includes gross unrealized appreciation of $4.39 million and $13.95 million and gross unrealized depreciation of $(4.93) million and $(7.15) million.

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in our investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by tightening of credit spreads, the reversal of unrealized depreciation in connection with the aforementioned restructuring of the first lien debt investment in LCG Vardiman Black, LLC (dba Specialty Dental Brands), and the partial repayment from Ardonagh Midco 3 PLC, partially offset by the financial underperformance of NCWS Intermediate, Inc. (dba National Carwash Solutions).

**FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES** 

Our primary use of funds is for our investments in portfolio companies, cash distributions to our stockholders or for other general corporate purposes, including paying for operating expenses or debt service to the extent we borrow or issue senior securities.

We expect to generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of any future offerings of securities, future borrowings and cash flows from operations. To the extent we determine that additional capital would allow us to take advantage of additional investment opportunities, if the market for debt financing presents attractively priced debt financing opportunities, or if our Board of Directors otherwise determines that leveraging our portfolio would be in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders, we may enter into credit facilities in addition to the Revolving Credit Facilities, or issue other senior securities. We would expect any such credit facilities may be secured by certain of our assets and may contain advance rates based upon pledged collateral. The pricing and other terms of any such facilities would depend upon market conditions when we enter into any such facilities as well as the performance of our business, among other factors. As a BDC, with certain limited exceptions, we are only permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met). See "*—Key Components of Operations—Leverage.*" As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our asset coverage ratio based on the aggregate amount outstanding of our senior securities (which includes our Revolving Credit Facilities) was 298% and 290%. We may also refinance or repay any of our indebtedness at any time based on our financial condition and market conditions.

We may enter into investment commitments through signed commitment letters that may ultimately become investment transactions in the future. We regularly evaluate and carefully consider our unfunded commitments using GSAM's proprietary risk management framework for the purpose of planning our capital resources and ongoing liquidity, including our financial leverage.

The following table summarizes the securities issued and proceeds related to such issuances:

***Distribution Reinvestment Plan*** 

We have adopted a distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP"), pursuant to which we reinvest all distributions declared by the Board on behalf of our stockholders who do not elect to receive their distributions in cash. As a result, if the Board authorizes, and we declare, a cash distribution or other distribution, then our stockholders who have not opted out of our DRIP will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares, rather than receiving the cash distribution or other distribution.

***Contractual Obligations*** 

We have entered into the Investment Management Agreement with Goldman Sachs Asset Management (in its capacity as the Investment Adviser) to provide us with investment advisory services and the Administration Agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (in its capacity as the administrator, the "Administrator") to provide us with administrative services. Payments for investment advisory services under the Investment Management Agreement are described in "*Item 1. Business—Investment Management Agreement*" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

We may establish credit facilities in addition to the Truist Revolving Credit Facility, BNPP Revolving Credit Facility and MS Revolving Credit Facility or enter into other financing arrangements to facilitate investments and the timely payment of our expenses. It is anticipated that any such credit facilities will bear interest at floating rates at to-be-determined spreads over SOFR (or other applicable reference rate). We cannot assure stockholders that we will be able to enter into a credit facility on favorable terms or at all. In connection with a credit facility or other borrowings, lenders may require us to pledge assets, commitments and/or drawdowns (and the ability to enforce the payment thereof) and may ask us to comply with positive or negative covenants that could have an effect on our operations.

We entered into multiple purchase agreements (collectively, as amended, the "Purchase Agreements") with Macquarie Bank Limited (the "Financing Provider" or "Macquarie").

The following table shows our contractual obligations as of September 30, 2025:

***Truist Revolving Credit Facility*** 

On April 6, 2023, we entered into a revolving credit facility (as amended, the "Truist Revolving Credit Facility") with Truist Bank, as administrative agent, and the lenders and issuing banks party thereto.

The total loans and commitments under the Truist Revolving Credit Facility are $2,420.00 million, of which $1,840.00 million is under a multicurrency sub-facility, $455.00 million is under a USD sub-facility and $125.00 million is under a term loan tranche.

We have amended the Truist Revolving Credit Facility on numerous occasions between August 9, 2023 and June 16, 2025.

Any amounts borrowed under the Truist Revolving Credit Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on June 14, 2030.

Borrowings thereunder denominated in USD, including amounts drawn in respect of letters of credit, bear interest (at our election) of either (i) term SOFR plus a margin of either 1.90% or 1.75% (subject to certain gross borrowing base conditions), plus an additional 0.10% credit adjustment spread, (ii) an alternate base rate, which is the highest of (x) Prime Rate in effect on such day, (y) Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day plus 1/2 of 1.00% and (z) term SOFR for an interest period of one (1) month plus 1.00%, plus a margin of either 0.90% or 0.75% (subject to certain gross borrowing base conditions). Borrowings thereunder denominated in non-USD bear interest of the applicable term benchmark rate or daily simple risk-free rate plus a margin of either 1.90% or 1.75% (subject to certain gross borrowing base conditions), plus, in the case of borrowings denominated in (i) Great British Pounds ("GBP") only, an additional 0.0326% credit adjustment spread or 0.1193% credit adjustment spread, for 1-month tenor and 3-months tenor borrowings, (ii) Swiss Franc ("CHF") only, a -0.0571% credit adjustment spread or 0.0031% credit adjustment spread, for 1-month tenor and 3-months tenor borrowings, and (iii) Canadian Dollars ("CAD") only, an additional 0.29547% credit adjustment spread or 0.32138% credit adjustment spread, for 1-month tenor and 3-months tenor borrowings. With respect to borrowings denominated in USD, we may elect either term SOFR, or an alternative base rate at the time of borrowing, and such borrowings may be converted from one benchmark to another at any time, subject to certain conditions.

For further details, see Note 6 "Debt–Truist Revolving Credit Facility" in our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

We amended the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility on numerous occasions between May 30, 2024 and January 31, 2025.

The total commitments under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility are $1,100 million. Proceeds from borrowings under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility may be used to fund portfolio investments by SPV Public I and to make advances under delayed drawdown collateral assets where SPV Public I is a lender. Any amounts outstanding under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility must be repaid by January 31, 2028.

Prior to April 30, 2024, advances under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 1-month or 3-month Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.80% per annum. From April 30, 2024 until October 30, 2024, advances under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 1-month or 3-month Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.735% per annum. From October 31, 2024 until January 31, 2025, advances under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 1-month or 3-month Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.630% per annum. From and after January 31, 2025, advances under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to 1-month or 3-month Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.615% per annum. After the expiration of the reinvestment period on January 31, 2027, the applicable margin on all outstanding advances will increase by 1.00% per annum.

For further details, see Note 6 "Debt–BNPP Revolving Credit Facility" in our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

***MS Revolving Credit Facility*** 

On August 9, 2024, GSCR Mott Street SPV LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("GSCR Mott Street"), entered into a revolving credit facility (the "MS Revolving Credit Facility") with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. ("MS"), as administrative agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, as collateral agent, account bank and collateral custodian, the Company, as transferor and servicer, and the lenders party thereto, in an initial principal amount of $1,000.00 million (the "Tranche A Advances"). We amended the MS Revolving Credit Facility on October 24, 2024 (the "MS Facility First Amendment"), June 12, 2025 (the "MS Facility Second Amendment") and on July 16, 2025 (the "MS Facility Third Amendment").

The MS Facility First Amendment, among other things, created a second tranche of commitments in the amount of $1,000.00 million (the "Tranche B Advances"). The MS Facility Second Amendment, among other things, provided for a one year extension of the revolving period from August 8, 2027 to August 8, 2028, a one year extension of the stated maturity date from August 9, 2029 to August 9, 2030, an amended minimum utilization schedule, revisions to certain eligibility criteria and concentration limitations with respect to PIK assets, and the addition of CHF and Norwegian Krone as eligible currencies. The MS Facility Third Amendment provided for an amendment to the calculation of the Yield Rate, such that from and after May 9, 2025, solely with respect to minimum utilization, Yield is calculated based off of only the Applicable Margin (rather than the applicable benchmark plus the Applicable Margin) (each capitalized term, as defined in the MS Revolving Credit Facility).

The total commitments under the MS Revolving Credit Facility are $2,000.00 million. Proceeds from borrowings under the MS Revolving Credit Facility may be used to, among other things, fund portfolio investments by GSCR Mott Street and to make advances under delayed drawdown collateral assets where GSCR Mott Street is a lender. Any amounts outstanding under the MS Revolving Credit Facility must be repaid by August 9, 2030.

Advances under the MS Revolving Credit Facility initially bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the benchmark in effect for the currency of the applicable advance (which in the case of USD is 3-month Term SOFR) plus an applicable margin of (x) for the Tranche A Advances, 2.35% per annum and (y) for the Tranche B Advances, 2.15% per annum. After the expiration of a three-year reinvestment period, the applicable margin on outstanding advances will be (x) for the Tranche A Advances, 2.85% per annum and (y) for the Tranche B Advances, 2.65% per annum.

For further details, see Note 6 "Debt–MS Revolving Credit Facility" in our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

***2028 Notes***

On May 6, 2025, we closed an offering of $400.00 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% unsecured notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes"). The 2028 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture between us and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2028 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 6 and November 6 of each year. The 2028 Notes will mature on May 6, 2028 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at our option at any time or from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the 2028 Notes, we entered into an interest rate swap to more closely align the interest rates of our fixed rate liabilities with the investment portfolio, which predominately consists of floating rate loans. We designated this interest rate swap and the 2028 Notes in a qualifying fair value hedging relationship.

For further details, see Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies - Derivatives," Note 6 "Debt—2028 Notes" and Note 7 "Derivatives" to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

***2030 Notes***

On May 6, 2025, we closed an offering of $600.00 million aggregate principal amount of 6.250% unsecured notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes"). The 2030 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture between us and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2030 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.250% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 6 and November 6 of each year. The 2030 Notes will mature on May 6, 2030 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at our option at any time or from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes, we entered into an interest rate swap to more closely align the interest rates of our fixed rate liabilities with the investment portfolio, which predominately consists of floating rate loans. We designated this interest rate swap and the 2028 Notes in a qualifying fair value hedging relationship.

For further details, see Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies - Derivatives," Note 6 "Debt—2030 Notes" and Note 7 "Derivatives" to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

***Short-Term Borrowings***

From time to time, we may engage in sale/buy-back agreements, which are a type of secured borrowing, with Macquarie. The amount, interest rate and terms of these agreements will be individually negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Each transaction (each, a "Short-Term

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

Borrowing") is intended to finance one of our underlying investments. Under each Short-Term Borrowing, we remain the lender of record of the relevant underlying investment for the duration of such transaction but we sell to Macquarie a participation interest in such underlying investment and concurrently enter into an agreement to repurchase from Macquarie the same participation interest at an agreed-upon price (which price includes the interest on such borrowing) at a future date. The future repurchase date will not be later than not to exceed 90 days from the date the participation interest it was sold to Macquarie (unless such 90-day date is mutually extended by us and Macquarie).

For further details, see Note 6 "Debt–Short-Term Borrowings" in our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

***Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements***

We may become a party to investment commitments and to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to fund investments and to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. We may commit to issue standby letters of credit in connection with an investment. In the event a letter of credit is funded, we would be obligated under the terms of the relevant credit agreement to fund a portion of the letter of credit, for a period of time, on behalf of the Accounts that also have a commitment to the investment. The Accounts are obligated to reimburse us as defined in the credit agreement. As of September 30, 2025, we have committed to fund letters of credit of $23.15 million on behalf of the Accounts. As of September 30, 2025, we believed that we had adequate financial resources to satisfy our unfunded commitments. Our unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies were as follows:

---

| Membership Interest | 37.02 |  |
| **Total** | $**3961.68** | $**1239.49** |

**HEDGING**

Subject to applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act and applicable CFTC regulations, we may enter into hedging transactions in a manner consistent with SEC guidance. To the extent that any of our loans are denominated in a currency other than USD, we may enter into currency hedging contracts to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. We may also enter into interest rate hedging agreements. Such hedging activities, which will be subject to compliance with applicable legal requirements, may include the use of futures, options, swaps and forward contracts. Costs incurred in entering into such contracts or in settling them, if any, will be borne by us. Our Investment Adviser has claimed relief from CFTC registration and regulation as a commodity pool operator pursuant to CFTC Rule 4.5 with respect to our operations, with the result that we will be limited in our ability to use futures contracts or options on futures contracts or engage in swap transactions. Specifically, CFTC Rule 4.5 imposes strict limitations on using such derivatives other than for hedging purposes, whereby the use of derivatives not used solely for hedging purposes is generally limited to situations where (i) the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish such positions does not exceed five percent of the liquidation value of our portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such contracts it has entered into; or (ii) the aggregate net notional value of such derivatives does not exceed 100% of the liquidation value of our portfolio. Moreover, we anticipate entering into transactions involving such derivatives to a very limited extent solely for hedging purposes or otherwise within the limitations of CFTC Rule 4.5.

Rule 18f-4 under the Investment Company Act includes limitations on the ability of a BDC (or a RIC) to use derivatives and other transactions that create future payment or delivery obligations (including reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions). Under the rule, BDCs that make significant use of derivatives are subject to a value-at-risk leverage limit, a derivatives risk management program, testing requirements and requirements related to board reporting. These requirements apply unless the BDC qualifies as a "limited derivatives user," as defined in Rule 18f-4. Under the rule, a BDC may enter into an unfunded commitment agreement that is not a derivatives transaction, such as an agreement to provide financing to a portfolio company, if the BDC has, among other things, a reasonable belief, at the time it enters into such an agreement, that it will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet its obligations with respect to all of its unfunded commitment agreements, in each case as it becomes due. Under Rule 18f-4, when we trade reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions, including certain tender option bonds, we need to aggregate the amount of any other senior securities representing indebtedness (e.g., bank borrowings, if applicable) when calculating our asset coverage ratio. We currently operate as a "limited derivatives user" and these requirements may limit our ability to use derivatives and/or enter into certain other financial contracts.

**CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES**

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.

For a description of our critical accounting policies, see Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies" in our consolidated financial statements included in this report. We consider the most significant accounting policies to be those related to our Investments, Revenue Recognition, Non-Accrual Investments, Distributions, and Income Taxes. We consider the most significant critical estimate to be the fair value measurement of investments. The critical accounting policies and estimates should be read in connection with our risk factors listed under "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**Fair Value Measurement of Investments**

Consistent with GAAP and the Investment Company Act, we conduct a valuation of our investments, pursuant to which our NAV is determined. Our investments are valued on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required under the Investment Company Act. The determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. The majority of investments are not quoted or traded in an active market, and as such, their fair values are determined using valuation techniques, primarily discounted cash flows, market multiples, and recent comparable transactions. The most significant inputs in applying the discounted cash flow approach and the market multiples approach are the selected discount rates and multiples, respectively. The selection of these inputs is based on a combination of factors that are specific to the underlying portfolio companies such as financial performance and certain factors that are observable in the market, such as current interest rates and comparable public company trading multiples. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of these valuations, and any change in these valuations on the consolidated financial statements. For further details of our investments and fair value measurement accounting policy, see Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies—Investments" and Note 5 "Fair Value Measurement."

**RECENT DEVELOPMENTS**

*Merger with MMLC II* 

On October 14, 2025, we completed our previously announced Merger with MMLC II pursuant to the Merger Agreement, dated as of July 11, 2025. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time, MMLC II merged with and into us, with us continuing as the surviving company. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time, each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of MMLC II issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time, except for shares, if any, owned by MMLC II, us, or any of their respective consolidated subsidiaries, was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $18.41 per share. As a result of the Merger, we paid $441,182 to MMLC II's former common stockholders, prior to any adjustment for shares, if any, held by any person who is entitled to demand (and properly demands) appraisal of their shares of MMLC II Common Stock.

The Merger was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-50, Business Combinations—Related Issues.

*Issuance of 2029 Notes*

On October 17, 2025, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes"). The 2029 Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on January 31 and July 31 of each year, commencing on January 31, 2026, and will mature on January 31, 2029. At our option, the 2029 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, prior to their maturity at the applicable redemption price, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

*Truist Revolving Credit Facility Commitment Increase* 

On October 14, 2025, in connection with the completion of the Merger, the term loans under the Truist Revolving Credit Facility were increased to $150.0 million, the commitments under the multicurrency sub-facility were increased to $2,270.0 million, and the commitments under the USD sub-facility were increased to $580.0 million. The total loans and commitments under the Truist Revolving Credit Facility following such increases are $3,000.0 million.

*Fourth Amendment to MS Revolving Credit Facility* 

On October 24, 2025, GSCR Mott Street entered into the fourth amendment to the MS Revolving Credit Facility (the "MS Facility Fourth Amendment"). The MS Facility Fourth Amendment, among other things, (i) combined the two tranches of commitments and reduced the applicable margin of each respective tranche to a single applicable margin equal to (x) on and after the Fourth Amendment Date (as defined in the MS Facility Fourth Amendment) and during the revolving period, 1.80% per annum and (y) during the amortization period, 2.30% per annum and (ii) extended the period during which GSCR Mott Street may not terminate or permanently reduce the MS Revolving Credit Facility from August 9, 2025 to October 24, 2026.

*October and November Subscriptions*

On October 1, 2025, we received $283.30 million of proceeds, relating to the issuance of 11,313,991 Shares.

On November 1, 2025, we received $261.08 million of proceeds, relating to the issuance of Shares.

*Distributions*

On November 5, 2025, our Board of Directors declared monthly distributions from our taxable earnings, including net investment income. The following table summarizes the distributions declared and the dates that they are expected to be paid on or about:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **<u>Record Date</u>** | **<u>Payable Date</u>** |
| November 28, 2025 | January 7, 2026 |
| December 31, 2025 | January 28, 2026 |
| January 30, 2026 | February 27, 2026 |

---

*Multiple Share Classes* 

On November 11, 2025, we adopted a Multiple Class Plan (the "Multiple Class Plan") in accordance with Rule 18f-3 under the Investment Company Act and a distribution and servicing plan (the "Distribution and Servicing Plan") in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Pursuant to the Multiple Class Plan, we may issue multiple classes of our shares of common stock, including Class I shares, Class D shares ("Class D shares") and Class S shares ("Class S shares"), each par value $0.001 per share. Pursuant to the Distribution and Servicing Plan, we will pay to the Placement Agent a monthly stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee equal to (i) 0.85% per annum with respect to Class S shares and (ii) 0.25% per annum with respect to Class D shares, in each case, of the aggregate NAV of the applicable share class as of the beginning of the first calendar day of the applicable month. The stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee is payable monthly in arrears, and the Placement Agent anticipates that all or a portion of the stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees will be retained by, or reallowed (paid) to, participating and servicing brokers for certain ongoing services performed by such brokers and that such fees will be waived to the extent a broker is not eligible to receive them for failure to provide such services. There are no stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees with respect to Class I shares. Other than these ongoing stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees, each class of shares has the same economics and voting rights, and has been registered under the Exchange Act. See "Part II. Other Information – Item 5. Other Information" for additional information.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK** 

We are subject to financial market risks, most significantly changes in interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. Because we expect to fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is expected to be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 on a fair value basis, 100% and 100% of our performing debt investments bore interest at a floating rate. Our borrowings under the Truist Revolving Credit Facility, the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility, the MS Revolving Credit Facility and Short-Term Borrowings each bear interest at a floating rate and our 2028 Notes and 2030 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate. In certain cases, we have entered into interest rate swaps to mitigate the impact of changes in market interest rates on our net asset value.

We regularly measure our exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities.

Based on our September 30, 2025 Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities, the following table shows the annual impact on net income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:

We have and may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as additional interest rate swaps, futures, options and forward contracts, subject to the requirements of the Investment Company Act, applicable CFTC regulations and in a manner consistent with SEC guidance. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates.

We plan to invest primarily in illiquid debt securities of private companies. Most of our investments will not have a readily available market price, and we will value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Investment Adviser, as our Valuation Designee, pursuant to procedures adopted by the Investment Adviser, as our Valuation Designee, subject to the oversight of the Board in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. Our investment strategy will also allocate a portion of the overall portfolio to Liquid Investments, such as broadly syndicated loans and other fixed-income securities, to provide the portfolio with additional liquidity and to manage our payment obligations under our share repurchase program. Investment decisions related to Liquid Investments, such as broadly syndicated loans and other fixed-income securities, will be made by the Goldman Sachs Asset Management High Yield and Bank Loan team within the Global Fixed Income and Liquidity Solutions group of Goldman Sachs Asset Management.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures*.** As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting*.** There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II –** **OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings.** 

From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under loans to or other contracts with our portfolio companies. We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors.** 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the SEC on March 4, 2025. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

**Risks Relating to Our Investments**

***Our investments are very risky and highly speculative.*** 

We primarily hold directly originated, first lien senior secured, floating rate debt of companies located primarily in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in non-U.S. jurisdictions. We may also invest to a lesser extent in second lien loans, unsecured, subordinated or PIK debt, equity and debt tranches of CLOs, including CLOs that own corporate debt, and equity and equity-like instruments. Our debt investments may be rated by a NRSRO, and, in such case, generally will carry ratings below investment grade (rated lower than "Baa3" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or lower than "BBB-" by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services). We may also invest in debt instruments that are not rated by an NRSRO, though we expect that our unrated debt investments will generally have credit quality consistent with below investment grade instruments. These securities, which may be referred to as "junk bonds," "high yield bonds" or "leveraged loans," have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal. These securities are subject to greater risk of loss of principal and interest than higher-rated and comparable non-rated securities. They are also generally considered to be subject to greater risk than securities with higher ratings or comparable non-rated securities in the case of deterioration of general economic conditions. Because investors generally perceive that there are greater risks associated with lower-rated and comparable non-rated securities, the yields and prices of such securities may be more volatile than those for higher-rated and comparable non-rated securities. The market for lower-rated and comparable non-rated securities is thinner, often less liquid and less active than that for higher-rated or comparable non-rated securities, which can adversely affect the prices at which these securities can be sold and may even make it impractical to sell such securities.

In addition, we may also originate "covenant-lite" loans, which are loans with fewer financial maintenance covenants than other obligations, or no financial maintenance covenants. Such covenant-lite loans may not include terms that allow the lender to monitor the performance of the borrower or to declare a default if certain criteria are breached. These flexible covenants (or the absence of covenants) could permit borrowers to experience a significant downturn in their results of operations without triggering any default that would permit holders of their debt (such as the Company) to accelerate indebtedness or negotiate terms and pricing. Accordingly, to the extent we invest in "covenant-lite" loans, we may have fewer rights against a borrower and may have a greater risk of loss on such investments as compared to investments in or exposure to loans with financial maintenance covenants. Therefore, our investments may result in an above-average amount of risk and volatility or loss of principal. We also may invest in other assets, including U.S. government securities and structured securities. These investments entail additional risks that could adversely affect our investment returns.

*Secured Debt.* When we make a secured debt investment, we generally take a security interest in the available assets of the portfolio company, including the equity interests of any subsidiaries, which we expect to help mitigate the risk that we will not be repaid. However, there is a risk that the collateral securing our debt investment may decrease in value over time, may be difficult to sell in a timely manner, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based upon the success of the business and market conditions, including as a result of the inability of the

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

portfolio company to raise additional capital. In some circumstances, our lien could be subordinated to claims of other creditors, such as trade creditors. In addition, deterioration in a portfolio company's financial condition and prospects, including its inability to raise additional capital, may be accompanied by deterioration in the value of the collateral for the debt investment. Consequently, the fact that our debt is secured does not guarantee that we will receive principal and interest payments according to the debt investment's terms, or at all, or that we will be able to collect on the loan, in full or at all, should we enforce our remedies.

*Unsecured Debt, Including Mezzanine Debt.* Our unsecured debt investments, including mezzanine debt investments, generally will be subordinated to senior debt in the event of an insolvency. This may result in an above average amount of risk and loss of principal.

*Revolving Credit Facilities*. We intend to acquire or originate revolving credit facilities from time to time in connection with our investments in other assets, which may result in the Company holding unemployed funds, negatively impacting our returns.

*Equity Investments.* When we invest in secured debt or unsecured debt, including mezzanine debt, we may acquire equity securities from the company in which we make the investment. In addition, we may invest in the equity securities of portfolio companies independent of any debt investment. Our goal is ultimately to dispose of such equity interests and realize gains upon our disposition of such interests. However, the equity interests we hold may not appreciate in value and, in fact, may decline in value. Accordingly, we may not be able to realize gains from our equity interests, and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience.

***We may form one or more CLOs, which may subject us to certain structured financing risks.*** 

To the extent permissible under risk retention rules adopted pursuant to Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Act and applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act, to finance investments, we may securitize certain of our investments, including through the formation of one or more CLOs, while retaining all or most of the exposure to the performance of these investments. This would involve contributing a pool of assets to a special purpose entity, and selling debt interests in such entity on a non-recourse or limited-recourse basis to purchasers. To the extent we do not wholly own any such CLO, any interest therein held by us may be considered a "non-qualifying asset" for purposes of Section 55 of the Investment Company Act.

If we create a CLO, we will depend on distributions from the CLO's assets out of its earnings and cash flows to enable us to make distributions to our stockholders. The ability of a CLO to make distributions will be subject to various limitations, including the terms and covenants of the debt it issues. For example, tests (based on interest coverage or other financial ratios or other criteria) may restrict our ability, as holder of a CLO's equity interests, to receive cash flow from these investments. There is no assurance any such performance tests will be satisfied. Also, a CLO may take actions that delay distributions in order to preserve ratings and to keep the cost of present and future financings lower or the CLO may be obligated to retain cash or other assets to satisfy over-collateralization requirements commonly provided for holders of the CLO's debt. As a result, there may be a lag, which could be significant, between the repayment or other realization on a loan or other assets in, and the distribution of cash out of, a CLO, or cash flow may be completely restricted for the life of the CLO. If we do not receive cash flow from any such CLO that is necessary to satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement for maintaining our qualification for tax treatment as a RIC, and we are unable to obtain cash from other sources necessary to satisfy this requirement, we could fail to maintain our qualification for tax treatment as a RIC, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.

In addition, a decline in the credit quality of loans in a CLO due to poor operating results of the relevant borrower, declines in the value of loan collateral or increases in defaults, among other things, may force a CLO to sell certain assets at a loss, reducing their earnings and, in turn, cash potentially available for distribution to us for distribution to our stockholders.

To the extent that any losses are incurred by the CLO in respect of any collateral, such losses will be borne first by us as owner of equity interests. Finally, any equity interests that we retain in a CLO will not be secured by the assets of the CLO and we will rank behind all creditors of the CLO.

***We may be subject to risks associated with investments in CLO securities.***

We may make investments in securities, including debt and equity tranches, issued by CLOs. Investments in CLO securities are complex and are subject to a number of risks related to, among other things, changes in interest rates, the rate of defaults and recoveries in the collateral pool, prepayment rates, terms of loans purchased to replace loans in the collateral pool which have pre-paid, the exercise of remedies by more senior tranches and the possibility that no market will exist when we seek to sell our interests in CLO securities. The failure by a CLO to satisfy certain financial covenants, specifically those with respect to adequate collateralization and/or interest coverage tests, could lead to a reduction in its payments to us. For example, if a CLO fails to satisfy one of the coverage tests provided in its indenture, all distributions on those CLO securities held by us may cease until that CLO brings itself back into compliance with such coverage tests, and holders of any debt senior to us may be entitled to additional payments, which would, in turn, reduce the payments we would otherwise be entitled to receive. Separately, we may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms, which may include the waiver of certain financial covenants, with a defaulting CLO or any other investment we may make. If any of these occur, it could materially and adversely affect our operating results and cash flows.

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

CLO securities represent leveraged investments in the underlying collateral held by the CLO issuer. The use of leverage creates risk for the holders because the leverage increases their exposure to losses with respect to the collateral. As a result, the occurrence of defaults with respect to only a small portion of the collateral could result in the substantial or complete loss of investment in the CLO securities. Payments of principal of, and interest on, debt issued by CLOs, and dividends and other distributions on subordinated and equity tranches of a CLO, are subject to priority of payments. CLO equity is subordinated to the prior payment of all obligations under debt securities. Further, in the event of default under any debt securities issued by a CLO, and to the extent that any elimination, deferral or reduction in payments on debt securities occurs, such elimination will be borne first by CLO equity and then by the debt securities in reverse order of seniority. Thus, the greatest risk of loss relating to defaults on the collateral held by CLOs is borne by the CLO equity.

***Investments in CLOs are riskier and less transparent to us and our stockholders than direct investments in the underlying debt investments.***

Generally, there may be less information available to us regarding the underlying debt investments held by CLOs than if we had invested directly in the debt of the underlying companies. As a result, our stockholders may not know the details of the underlying securities of a CLO in which we may invest. Our CLO investments may also be subject to the risk of leverage associated with the debt issued by such CLOs and the repayment priority of senior debt holders in such CLOs. Additionally, CLOs in which we may invest are often governed by a complex series of legal documents and contracts. As a result, the risk of dispute over interpretation or enforceability of the documentation may be higher relative to other types of investments. For example, some documents governing the loans underlying a CLO investment may allow for "priming transactions," in connection with which majority lenders or debtors can amend loan documents to the detriment of other lenders, amend loan documents in order to move collateral, or amend documents in order to facilitate capital outflow to other parties/subsidiaries in a capital structure, any of which may adversely affect the rights and security priority of the CLOs in which we may be invested.

The accounting and tax implications of such investments are complicated. In particular, reported earnings from the equity tranche investments of CLOs generally are recorded under GAAP based upon an effective yield calculation. Current taxable earnings on these investments, however, generally will not be determinable until after the end of the fiscal year of each individual CLO that ends within our fiscal year, even though the investments are generating cash flow. In general, the tax treatment of these investments may result in higher distributable earnings in the early years and a capital loss at maturity, while for reporting purposes the totality of cash flows are reflected in a constant yield.

Some instruments issued by CLOs may not be readily marketable and may be subject to restrictions on resale. Securities issued by CLOs are generally not listed on any U.S. national securities exchange and no active trading market may exist for the securities of CLOs in which we may invest. Although a secondary market may exist for investments in CLOs, the market for investments in CLOs may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods. As a result, these types of investments may be more difficult to value.

***The CLOs in which we may invest may incur significant operating expenses.***

The CLOs in which we may invest may incur significant operating fees and expenses, including, but not limited to, collateral management fees, administrative expenses, and other operating expenses, which are indirectly borne by CLO investors. CLO collateral management base fees are generally charged on the CLO's total assets and are usually paid from residual cash flows after interest payments to senior debt tranches. Additional CLO operating expenses may also apply, although these are not routinely reported in a standardized manner. Furthermore, CLO collateral managers may also earn incentive fees tied to equity cash flows once the equity tranche achieves a cash-on-cash return of capital and a specified "hurdle" rate. All of these fees and expenses are borne first by the CLO equity tranche due to its subordinated position. Given that the CLO equity tranche represents only a fraction of the value of the entire CLO, these fees and expenses are greatly magnified when expressed as a percentage of the value of the CLO equity tranche. Both types of CLO tranches in which we may invest (equity tranches and debt tranches) may bear these expenses, with the equity tranche usually shouldering these costs. To the extent that the CLO equity tranche has suffered or will suffer a total principal loss, debt tranches will then effectively bear these fees and expenses. As a result, investments we may make in CLOs may expose us to these significant operating fees and expenses of such CLOs.

***We will have no influence on the management of underlying investments managed by non-affiliated third party CLO collateral managers.***

We will not be responsible for and will have no influence over the asset management of the portfolios underlying the CLO investments we may hold that are managed by non-affiliated third party CLO collateral managers. Similarly, we will not be responsible for and will have no influence over the day-to-day management, administration or any other aspect of the issuers of the individual securities. As a result, the values of the portfolios underlying such CLO investments could decrease as a result of decisions made by third party CLO collateral managers.

***We may be subject to risks associated with repurchase agreements and/or reverse repurchase agreements.***

We may invest in repurchase agreements as a buyer for investment and/or cash management purposes. Repurchase agreements typically involve the acquisition by us of debt securities from a selling financial institution such as a bank, savings and loan association or broker-dealer. The agreement provides that we will sell the securities back to the institution at a fixed time in the future. We do not bear the risk of a decline in the value of the underlying security unless the seller defaults under its repurchase obligation. In the event of the bankruptcy or other default of a seller of a repurchase agreement, we could experience both delays in liquidating the underlying securities and losses, including (1) possible

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

decline in the value of the underlying security during the period in which we seek to enforce its rights thereto; (2) possible lack of access to income on the underlying security during this period; and (3) expenses of enforcing its rights. In addition, as described above, the value of the collateral underlying the repurchase agreement will be at least equal to the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the repurchase agreement. In the event of a default or bankruptcy by a selling financial institution, we generally will seek to liquidate such collateral. However, the exercise of our right to liquidate such collateral could involve certain costs or delays and, to the extent that proceeds from any sale upon a default of the obligation to repurchase were less than the repurchase price, we could suffer a loss.

We may also invest in repurchase agreements as a seller, also known as a "reverse repurchase agreement." Our use of reverse repurchase agreements involves many of the same risks involved in our use of leverage, as the proceeds from reverse repurchase agreements are generally invested in additional securities. There is a risk that the market value of the securities acquired in the reverse repurchase agreement may decline below the price of the securities that we have sold but remain obligated to repurchase. In addition, there is a risk that the market value of the securities we retain may decline. If the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement were to file for bankruptcy or experiences insolvency, we may be adversely affected. Also, in entering into reverse repurchase agreements, we bear the risk of loss to the extent that the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement are less than the value of the underlying securities. In addition, due to the interest costs associated with reverse repurchase agreements transactions, our NAV may decline, and, in some cases, we may be worse off than if we had not used such instruments.

***We may expose ourselves to risks entering into hedging transactions.*** 

Entering into hedging transactions may expose us to risks associated with such transactions. Such hedging may utilize instruments such as forward contracts, currency options and interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors to seek to hedge against fluctuations in the relative values of our portfolio positions from changes in currency exchange rates and market interest rates. Use of these hedging instruments may involve counter-party credit risk. To the extent we have non-U.S. investments, particularly non-USD-denominated investments, our hedging costs will increase.

Hedging against a decline in the values of our portfolio positions does not eliminate the possibility of fluctuations in the values of such positions or prevent losses if the values of such positions decline. However, such hedging can establish other positions designed to gain from those same developments, thereby offsetting the decline in the value of such portfolio positions. Such hedging transactions may also limit the opportunity for gain if the values of the underlying portfolio positions should increase. Moreover, it may not be possible to hedge against an exchange rate or interest rate fluctuation that is so generally anticipated that we are not able to enter into a hedging transaction at an acceptable price.

The success of any hedging transactions we may enter into will depend on our ability to correctly predict movements in currencies and interest rates. Therefore, while we may enter into such transactions to seek to reduce currency exchange rate and interest rate risks, unanticipated changes in currency exchange rates or interest rates may result in poorer overall investment performance than if we had not engaged in any such hedging transactions. In addition, the degree of correlation between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging strategy and price movements in the portfolio positions being hedged may vary. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we may not seek to (or be able to) establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the portfolio holdings being hedged. Any such imperfect correlation may prevent us from achieving the intended hedge and expose us to risk of loss. In addition, it may not be possible to hedge fully or perfectly against currency fluctuations affecting the value of securities denominated in non-U.S. currencies because the value of those securities is likely to fluctuate as a result of factors not related to currency fluctuations. Income derived from hedging transactions also is generally not eligible to be distributed to non-U.S. stockholders free from U.S. federal withholding tax. Changes to the regulations applicable to the financial instruments we use to accomplish our hedging strategy could impair the effectiveness of that strategy.

 **Risks Relating to Legal and Regulatory Matters** 

***CFTC rules may have a negative impact on us and our Investment Adviser.*** 

The CFTC and the SEC have issued final rules establishing that most swap transactions are subject to CFTC regulation. Engaging in such swap or other commodity interest transactions such as futures contracts or options on futures contracts may cause us to fall within the definition of "commodity pool" under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, and related CFTC regulations. Our Investment Adviser has claimed relief from CFTC registration and regulation as a commodity pool operator pursuant to CFTC Rule 4.5 with respect to our operations, with the result that we will be limited in our ability to use futures contracts or options on futures contracts or engage in swap transactions. Specifically, CFTC Rule 4.5 imposes strict limitations on using such derivatives other than for hedging purposes, whereby the use of derivatives not used solely for hedging purposes is generally limited to situations where (i) the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish such positions does not exceed five percent of the liquidation value of our portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such contracts it has entered into; or (ii) the aggregate net notional value of such derivatives does not exceed 100% of the liquidation value of our portfolio. Moreover, we have entered and may continue to enter into transactions involving such derivatives to a very limited extent solely for hedging purposes or otherwise within the limitations of CFTC Rule 4.5.

**Risks Relating to Our Busi*ness and Structure***

***We may be unable to realize the benefits anticipated by the Merger or it may take longer than anticipated to achieve such benefits.*** 

The realization of certain benefits anticipated as a result of the Merger will depend in part on the integration of MMLC II's investment portfolio with ours and the integration of MMLC II's business with ours. There can be no assurance that MMLC II's investment portfolio or business can be operated profitably or integrated successfully into our operations in a timely fashion or at all. The dedication of management resources to such integration may detract attention from the day-to-day business of the combined company and there can be no assurance that there will not be substantial costs associated with the transition process or there will not be other material adverse effects as a result of these integration efforts. Such effects, including, but not limited to, incurring unexpected costs or delays in connection with such integration and failure of MMLC II's investment portfolio to perform as expected, could have a material adverse effect on the financial results of the combined company.

***Any litigation filed against us and MMLC II in connection with the Merger could result in substantial costs and could delay or prevent the Merger from being completed.*** 

From time to time, we and MMLC II may be subject to legal actions, including securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits, as well as various regulatory, governmental and law enforcement inquiries, investigations and subpoenas in connection with the Merger. These or any similar securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits, regardless of their merits, may result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment in such cases could have a negative impact on the liquidity and financial condition of the combined company following the Merger or could prevent the Merger from being completed.

Each of the above issuances and sales of our Shares was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as applicable. Each purchaser of the Shares was required to represent that it (i) is either an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act or, in the case of Shares sold outside the United States, not a "U.S. person" in accordance with Regulation S of the Securities Act and (ii) was acquiring the Shares for investment and not with a view to resell or distribute. We did not engage in general solicitation or advertising, and did not offer securities to the public, in connection with such issuances and sales.

*Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities* 

Subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors, we intend to maintain a share repurchase program in which we intend to offer to repurchase, in each quarter, up to 5% of our outstanding Shares (by number of shares) as of the close of the previous calendar quarter. Our Board of Directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program if it deems such action to be in the best interests of us and our stockholders. As a result, share repurchases may not be available each quarter. We intend to conduct such repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Exchange Act and the Investment Company Act. All Shares purchased pursuant to the

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

terms of each tender offer will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued shares.

Under the share repurchase program, to the extent we offer to repurchase Shares in any particular quarter, we expect to repurchase such Shares pursuant to tender offers using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the applicable quarter, except that Shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be subject to an "early repurchase deduction" of 2% of the aggregate NAV of the Shares repurchased (an "Early Repurchase Deduction"). The one-year holding period is measured as of the subscription closing date immediately following the prospective repurchase date and does not include Shares received under our distribution reinvestment plan. The Early Repurchase Deduction may be waived by us in the case of repurchase requests arising from the death, divorce or qualified disability of the holder. In addition, our Shares may be sold to certain foreign feeder vehicles primarily created to hold our Shares that in turn offer interests in such feeder vehicles to non-U.S. persons. We expect to conduct such offerings pursuant to available exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. For such foreign feeder vehicles and similar arrangements in certain foreign markets, we may not apply, in whole or in part, the Early Repurchase Deduction and may otherwise modify the Early Repurchase Deduction, with respect to such foreign feeder vehicles or underlying investors, often because of administrative or their systems limitations. The Early Repurchase Deduction will be retained by us for the benefit of our remaining stockholders.

**Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.** 

Not applicable.

**Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.** 

Not applicable.

**Item 5. Other Information.** 

On November 11, 2025, the Company adopted a Multiple Class Plan (the "Multiple Class Plan") in accordance with Rule 18f-3 under the Investment Company Act and a distribution and servicing plan (the "Distribution and Servicing Plan") in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Pursuant to the Multiple Class Plan, the Company may issue multiple classes of shares of its common stock, including Class I shares, Class S shares and Class D shares, each par value $0.001 per share. Pursuant to the Distribution and Servicing Plan, the Company will pay to GS & Co., in its capacity as placement agent ("Placement Agent"), a monthly stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee equal to (i) 0.85% per annum with respect to Class S shares and (iii) 0.25% per annum with respect to Class D shares, in each case, of the aggregate NAV of the applicable share class as of the beginning of the first calendar day of the applicable month. The stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee is payable monthly in arrears, and the Placement Agent anticipates that all or a portion of the stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees will be retained by, or reallowed (paid) to, participating and servicing brokers for certain ongoing services performed by such brokers and that such fees will be waived to the extent a broker is not eligible to receive them for failure to provide such services. There are no stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees with respect to Class I shares. In addition, although neither the Company nor the Placement Agent will charge upfront sales loads with respect to Class I shares, Class S shares or Class D shares, if an investor buys Class I shares, Class S shares or Class D shares through certain third-party financial intermediaries, they may directly charge such investor transaction or other fees, including upfront placement fees or brokerage commissions, in such amount as they may determine, provided that they limit such charges to a 3.5% cap on NAV for Class I shares, a 3.5% cap on NAV for Class S shares, and a 1.5% cap on NAV for Class D shares.

------

[<u>**Table of Contents**</u>](#toc_page)

The Company will cease paying the stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee on Class S shares and Class D shares on the earlier to occur of the following: (i) a listing of Class I shares, (ii) the Company's merger or consolidation with or into another entity, or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or (iii) the date following the completion of the primary portion of the Company's continuous private offering in which, in the aggregate, underwriting compensation from all sources in connection with such offering, including the stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee and other underwriting compensation, is equal to 10% of the gross proceeds from such primary offering.

Further, as required by exemptive relief that allows us to offer multiple classes of shares of common stock, at the end of the month in which the Placement Agent in conjunction with our transfer agent determines that stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees paid by the Company with respect to any single share held in a stockholder's account would exceed, in the aggregate, 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of such share (or a lower limit as determined by the Placement Agent and the applicable selling agent), we will cease paying the stockholder servicing and/or distribution fee on either (i) each such share that would exceed such limit or (ii) all Class S shares and Class D shares in such stockholder's account. The Company may modify this requirement if permitted by applicable exemptive relief. At the end of such month, the applicable Class S shares or Class D shares in such stockholder's account will convert into a number of Class I shares (including any fractional shares), with an equivalent aggregate NAV as such Class S or Class D shares.

Other than these ongoing stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees, each class of shares has the same economics and voting rights, and has been registered under the Exchange Act.

Copies of the Multiple Class Plan and Distribution and Distribution and Servicing Plan are included as Exhibits 10.5 and 10.6, respectively, to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the foregoing descriptions thereof do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Multiple Class Plan and Distribution and Distribution and Servicing Plan and the terms thereof, which are incorporated by reference herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Advances</u>. On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, from time to time from the Closing Date until the end of the Revolving Period, the Borrower (or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower) may request that the Lenders make Advances (which shall include an interest-only notional advance in respect of which interest will accrue thereon at the I/O Rate) secured by the Collateral, in an aggregate amount up to the Availability as of such date, to the Borrower for any purpose not prohibited under Section 5.02(h); *provided* that, no Lender shall be obligated to make any Advance on or after the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier to occur of the Commitment Termination Date or the Facility Maturity Date. Advances shall consist of Tranche A Advances (each, a "<u>Tranche A Advance</u>") and Tranche B Advances (each, a "<u>Tranche B Advance</u>"). From and after the First Amendment Date, any request for an Advance shall be divided among Tranche A Advances and Tranche B Advances proportionally based upon the Tranche A Commitments and Tranche B Commitments, respectively, to the aggregate Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, (i) each Tranche A Lender shall make a Tranche A Advance required by this <u>Article II</u> based on such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Tranche A Commitments and (ii) each Tranche B Lender shall make a Tranche B Advance required by this <u>Article II</u> based on such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Tranche B Commitments. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the First Amendment Date, the Borrower shall have no

------

right to request whether an Advance shall be a Tranche A Advance or a Tranche B Advance. Under no circumstances shall any Lender be required to make any Advance if after giving effect to such Advance and the addition to the Collateral of the Eligible Loan Assets being acquired by the Borrower using the proceeds of such Advance, (i) an Event of Default exists or would result therefrom or an Unmatured Event of Default exists or would result therefrom or (ii) a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists or would result therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall be obligated to provide the Borrower with aggregate funds in connection with an Advance that would exceed such Lender's unused Commitment then in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Promissory Note</u>. Upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower (in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) evidencing the (i) Advances of such Lender with appropriate insertions as to the date and principal amount or (ii) the I/O Loan of such Lender, with appropriate insertions as to the date and interest amount, not to exceed the I/O Notional Loan Amount allocable to such Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, any note delivered in connection with an I/O Loan shall be a zero principal balance note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>I/O Notional Loans</u>. For the purposes of calculating the accrued interest under the I/O Loans, the Borrower and Lenders hereby agree that on the Closing Date and the First Amendment Date, a loan with a principal amount equal to the applicable I/O Notional Loan Amount shall be deemed to have been advanced to the Borrower by the applicable Lenders under the I/O Loans (each such loan, an "<u>I/O Notional Loan</u>"), and any increase or any decrease, if any, of the applicable I/O Notional Loan Amount of the applicable I/O Notional Loans shall be allocated ratably to those Lenders who are the holders of the I/O Loans, solely to the extent that the aggregate Commitments are increased or decreased. No amounts will actually be advanced by any Lender to the Borrower in respect of the applicable I/O Notional Loan and no amount shall be owed by the Borrower to any Lender with respect to any such I/O Notional Loan (other than in respect of Yield at the I/O Rate). The amount of interest payable to a Lender in respect of the applicable I/O Notional Loan shall be calculated with respect to such Lender's I/O Notional Loan Lender Percentage.

Section 2.02 <u>Procedure for Advances</u>.

In the event the Borrower is subject to a Bankruptcy Event, any claim that the Borrower or the holders of any Equity Interest in the Borrower may have with respect to such distributions shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and notwithstanding any objection to, or rescission of, such filing, be fully subordinate in right of payment to the Obligations of the Borrower to the Secured Parties.

The Borrower and the Transferor hereby agree that they may only receive distributions from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (i) from amounts available pursuant to each of the last clauses of <u>Sections 2.04(a)</u>, <u>2.04(b)</u> and <u>2.04(c)</u> and (ii) in respect of a Permitted RIC Distribution expressly allowed by <u>Sections 2.04(a)</u> and <u>2.04(c)</u>.

Each Advance shall accrue interest at the applicable Yield Rate for each day beginning on, and including, the Advance Date with respect to such Advance and ending on, but excluding, the date such Advance is repaid in full. Yield on the I/O Loans due on each Payment Date shall be equal to the applicable interest due thereon with respect to each such Payment Date, which Yield shall accrue at the applicable Yield Rate for each day during the Remittance Period.

To the extent that Available Collections are insufficient on any Payment Date to satisfy the full amount of any Increased Costs pursuant to <u>Section 2.04(a)(v)</u> and <u>Section 2.04(b)(i)</u>, such unpaid amounts shall remain due and owing and shall be payable on the next succeeding Payment Date until repaid in full.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Advance requested by the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.02</u> is not for any reason whatsoever, except as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or failure to fund such Advance on the part of, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof, made or effectuated, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender related thereto (other than any such loss, cost or expense solely due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct

------

or failure to fund such Advance on the part of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof), including any loss (including cost of funds and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund Advances or maintain the Advances. Any such Lender shall provide to the Borrower documentation setting forth the amounts of any loss, cost or expense referred to in the previous sentence, such documentation to be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay or repay any amounts in respect of an I/O Notional Loan other than interest in accordance with <u>Section 2.01</u> and <u>Section 2.04</u>, as applicable.

Section 2.09 <u>Unused Fee</u>. The Borrower shall pay, in accordance with <u>Section 2.04</u>, *pro rata* to each Lender, an unused fee (the "<u>Unused Fee</u>") payable in arrears for each Remittance Period, equal to the sum of the products for each day during such Remittance Period of (a) one *divided* by three hundred and sixty (360), (b) the applicable Unused Fee Rate and (c) the positive difference, if any, of the Facility Amount *less* the greater of (i) the Advances Outstanding on such date and (ii) the Minimum Utilization.

Section 2.10 <u>Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Compensation for Losses</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Change in Law shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment, fee, Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in <u>clauses (b)</u> through <u>(d)</u> of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes), insurance charge, 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 the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate, participant, successor or assign thereof (each of which shall be an "<u>Affected Party</u>");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) impose on any Affected Party or the London interbank or other applicable offshore interbank market (or, to the extent a different Benchmark applies, the market for such Benchmark) any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Advances or participation therein or the obligation or right of any Lender to make Advances hereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) change the amount of capital maintained or required or requested or directed to be maintained by any Affected Party; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) change the rate for, or the manner in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (or a successor thereto) assesses deposit insurance premiums or similar charges;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to or impose a cost upon such Affected Party of funding or making or maintaining any Advance or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance or otherwise performing its obligations under the Transaction Documents or to increase the cost to such Affected Party or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Affected Party, whether of principal, interest or otherwise or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interest or loans received or held by such Affected Party and such Affected Party is generally charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers, then the Borrower will pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A certificate of an Affected Party providing an explanation of the applicable Change in Law and setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Party or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in <u>clause (a)</u> or <u>(b)</u> of this <u>Section 2.10</u> shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In determining any amount provided for in this <u>Section 2.10</u>, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Borrower shall pay such Affected Party the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the Payment Date following receipt thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation pursuant to this <u>Section 2.10</u> shall not constitute a waiver of any Affected Party's right to demand such compensation; *provided* that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Affected Party pursuant to this <u>Section 2.10</u> for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Affected Party notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Affected Party'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 one hundred and eighty (180)-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In the event that any Affected Party shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Affected Party to make any purchase or loan or maintain any

------

purchase or loan) as a result of any Advance not being made in accordance with a request therefor under <u>Section 2.02</u>, then, on the Payment Date following written notice from such Affected Party to the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Party, the amount of such loss or expense. Such written notice (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Compensation for Losses</u>. In the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any SOFR Advance other than on the last day of the Remittance Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any SOFR Advance other than on the last day of the Remittance Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Advance on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds or from any fees payable. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this <u>Section 2.10(f)</u> shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.11 <u>Taxes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any and all payments made by the Borrower or made by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Taxes are required by Applicable Law to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Recipient (as determined in the good faith discretion of 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 amount payable by the Borrower to such Person will be increased as necessary (the amount of such increase, the "<u>Additional Amount</u>") such that every net payment made under this Agreement after such withholding or deduction has been made (including, any such deductions and withholdings applicable to such increase) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Borrower or Servicer shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent or a Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Borrower will indemnify, from funds available to it pursuant to <u>Section 2.04</u> (and to the extent the funds available for indemnification provided by the Borrower is insufficient the Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower, will indemnify) each Recipient for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this <u>Section 2.11</u>) payable or paid by such Person or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient 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. All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be made within ten (10) days from the date a written demand therefor is delivered to the Borrower. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction 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 Transaction 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 <u>Section 2.11(e).</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by the Borrower or by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower of any Taxes, the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, will furnish to the Administrative Agent at the applicable address set forth on this Agreement, appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such 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 <u>Section 2.11(g)(i), (ii) and (iii)</u>) 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If any Lender is not a United States Tax Person, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, to the extent legally entitled to do so, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a party to this

------

Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. in the case of a 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 Transaction Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E 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 Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E 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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit L-1</u> to the effect that such Lender is not: (a) a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (c) a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "<u>U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate</u>") and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If a Lender is a United States Tax Person, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two (2) (or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times

------

prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this <u>clause (iii)</u>, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If any Lender is not a United States Tax Person, such Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this <u>Section 2.11(g)</u> expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender, as the case may be. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified or paid Additional Amounts pursuant to this <u>Section 2.11</u>, it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made or Additional Amounts paid under this <u>Section 2.11</u> with respect to the Indemnified 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 <u>Section 2.11(h)</u> (*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 <u>Section</u> <u>2.11(h)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>Section 2.11(h)</u> 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.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each party's obligations under this <u>Section 2.11</u> 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 Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) If at any time the Borrower shall be liable for the payment of any Additional Amounts in accordance with this <u>Section 2.11</u>, then the Borrower shall have the option to terminate this Agreement (in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.16(b)</u>); *provided* that such option to terminate shall in no event relieve the Borrower of paying any amounts owing pursuant to this <u>Section 2.11</u> in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 2.12 Grant of a Security Interest; Collateral Assignment of Agreements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) To secure the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations and the performance by the Borrower of all of the covenants and obligations to be performed by it pursuant to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent (collectively, the "Secured <u>Obligations</u>"), the Borrower hereby (i) collaterally assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties and (ii) Grants a security interest to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in all of the Borrower's right, title and interest in, to and under (but none of the obligations under) all of the Collateral, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower, and wherever the same may be located. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral shall not include any Excluded Amounts, and the Borrower does not hereby assign, pledge or Grant a security interest in any such amounts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) the Borrower shall remain liable under the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (y) the exercise by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral, and (z) none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender nor any Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender nor any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

The foregoing Grant shall, for the purpose of determining the property subject to the Lien of this Agreement, be deemed to include any securities and any investments Granted to the Collateral Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower, whether or not such securities or investments satisfy the criteria set forth in the definitions of "Eligible Loan Asset" or "Permitted Investments," as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) As security for the Secured Obligations, the Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, all of the Borrower's right and title to and interest in, to and under (but not any obligations under) the Purchase and Sale Agreement (and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith), the Underlying Instruments related to each Loan Asset, all other agreements, documents and instruments evidencing, securing or guarantying any Loan Asset and all other agreements,

documents and instruments related to any of the foregoing but excluding any Excluded Amounts or Retained Interest (the "<u>Assigned Documents</u>"). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, its right to indemnification under the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Borrower confirms that until the Collection Date the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have the sole right after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to enforce the Borrower's rights and remedies under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

The parties hereto agree that such collateral assignment to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall terminate upon the Collection Date.

Section 2.13 <u>Evidence of Debt</u>. The Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, at its address referred to in <u>Section 12.02</u> a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and participation agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses and interests of the Lenders (including principal amounts of and stated interest on the Advances or stated interest on the I/O Loans, as applicable) (the "<u>Register</u>"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time during business hours and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Advance or I/O Loan hereunder shall be assigned or sold, in whole or in part without registering such assignment or sale on the Register. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, however, shall not affect the Borrower's obligations in respect of any Advance and any I/O Loan.

Section 2.14 <u>Release of Loan Assets</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Lien granted and created pursuant to this Agreement shall be automatically released with respect to the following: (a) any Loan Asset (and the Related Asset) sold or substituted in accordance with the applicable provisions of <u>Section 2.07</u>, (b) any Loan Asset (and the Related Asset) with respect to which all amounts have been paid in full by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account and (c) the entire Collateral following the Collection Date. The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall, at the sole expense of the Servicer and the Borrower and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, execute such documents and instruments of release as may be prepared by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower, give notice of such release to the Collateral Custodian (in the form of <u>Exhibit J</u>) (unless the Collateral Custodian and Collateral Agent are the same Person) and take other such actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Borrower to effect such release of the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement. Upon receiving such notification by the Collateral Agent as described in the immediately preceding sentence, if applicable, the Collateral Custodian shall deliver the Required Loan Documents to the Borrower.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon the occurrence of the Collection Date, the respective remaining interests in the Related Assets of each Lender, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be automatically released to the Borrower, for no consideration but at the sole expense of the Borrower, free and clear of any Lien resulting solely from an act by any Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent but without any other representation or warranty, express or implied, by or recourse against any Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, and the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide evidence of any such release as the Borrower may request, at the sole expense of the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The security interest on any Loan Assets released pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14</u> or pursuant to <u>Section 2.07</u> shall be automatically released upon the consummation of the transfer or distribution of such Loan Asset, without any further action from the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent; *provided*, *however*, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent shall, upon the reasonable request of the Servicer or the Borrower, deliver any documentation or take any actions necessary or desirable to evidence the release of such security interest.

Section 2.15 <u>Treatment of Amounts Received by the Borrower</u>. Amounts received by the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.07</u> on account of Loan Assets shall be treated as payments of Principal Collections or Interest Collections, as applicable, on Loan Assets hereunder.

Section 2.16 <u>Prepayment; Termination; Reduction.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as expressly permitted or required herein, including, any repayment necessary to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency, Advances Outstanding may only be prepaid in whole or in part at the option of the Borrower at any time by delivering a Notice of Reduction (which notice shall include a Borrowing Base Certificate) to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at least one (1) Business Day, or in the case of any prepayment in whole, at least three (3) Business Days, prior to such prepayment. Upon any prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay in full all accrued and unpaid Yield, any Breakage Fees, Increased Costs and all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and Lenders required to be paid pursuant to Section 12.07 related to such prepayment. The Administrative Agent shall apply amounts received from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16(a) to the payment of any Breakage Fees and to the *pro rata* reduction of the Advances Outstanding. Each prepayment by the Borrower of an Advance denominated in an Eligible Currency shall be made with such Eligible Currency. Any notice relating to any repayment pursuant to this <u>Section 2.16(a)</u> shall be irrevocable; *provided* that any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other events, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such events fail to become effective (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall be liable for any Breakage Fees or, subject to <u>Section 12.07</u>, other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with such revocation).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On any Business Day that is on or after one (1) year following the Closing Date (or, if Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. or any Affiliate thereof is no longer the Administrative Agent, any Business Day following the Closing Date), the Borrower may, at its option and upon three (3) Business Days' prior written notice of such termination or permanent reduction in the form of <u>Exhibit F</u> to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, either (i) terminate this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents upon payment in full of all Advances Outstanding, all accrued and unpaid Yield and Fees, any Breakage Fees, Increased Costs, all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and Lenders, and payment of all other Obligations (other than unmatured contingent indemnification obligations), or (ii) permanently reduce in part the Facility Amount upon payment in full, all accrued and unpaid Yield and Unused Fees (*pro rata* with respect to the portion of the Facility Amount so reduced), any Breakage Fees, Increased Costs, and all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and Lenders. Any Termination/Reduction Notice relating to any reduction or termination pursuant to this <u>Section 2.16(b)</u> shall be irrevocable; *provided* that any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other events, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such events fail to become effective (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall be liable for any Breakage Fees or, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>12.07</u>, other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with such revocation). The Commitment and I/O Notional Loan Amount of each Lender shall be reduced by an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share (prior to giving effect to any reduction of Commitments hereunder) of the aggregate amount of any reduction under this <u>Section 2.16(b)</u>.

Section 2.17 <u>Collections and Allocations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Collateral Agent shall promptly identify all Available Collections received in the Collection Account as being on account of Interest Collections or Principal Collections and shall segregate all Interest Collections and Principal Collections and transfer the same to the Interest Collection Subaccount and the Principal Collection Subaccount, respectively. If the Servicer receives any collections directly, the Servicer shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, any such collections received directly by it (if any) to the Collection Account by the close of business within two (2) Business Days after such Interest Collections and Principal Collections are received; *provided* that the Servicer shall identify to the Collateral Agent any collections received directly by the Servicer as being on account of Interest Collections or Principal Collections. The Collateral Agent shall further provide to the Servicer a statement as to the amount of Interest Collections and Principal Collections on deposit in the Interest Collection Subaccount and the Principal Collection Subaccount no later than three (3) Business Days prior to each Determination Date for inclusion in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to <u>Section 6.08(b)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Within two (2) Business Days of the Cut-Off Date with respect to any Loan Asset, the Servicer will deposit or will cause the Borrower to deposit into the Collection Account all Available Collections received in respect of Eligible Loan Assets being transferred to and included as part of the Collateral on such date.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Servicer may withdraw from the Collection Account any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal, delivered to the Administrative Agent a report setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Prior to the delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Servicer shall, pursuant to written instruction (which may be in the form of standing instructions), direct the Collateral Agent to invest, or cause the investment of, funds on deposit in the Controlled Accounts in Permitted Investments, from the date of this Agreement until the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, such funds shall be invested in the Standby Investment. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in any Controlled Account shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding any Payment Date, and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be registered in the name of the Account Bank or its nominee for the benefit of the Collateral Agent. All income and gain realized from any such investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in any Controlled Account shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of <u>Article II</u> hereof. The Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account or the Unfunded Exposure Account, as the case may be (with respect to investments made hereunder of funds held therein), an amount equal to the amount of any actual loss incurred, in respect of any such investment, immediately upon realization of such loss. None of the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred, in respect of any investment, or lack of investment, of funds held in any Controlled Account, other than with respect to their own gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any of their respective Affiliates may receive compensation with respect to the Permitted Investments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Until the Collection Date, neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall have any rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in any Controlled Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in <u>Section 2.04</u>, <u>Section 2.17(c)</u> or <u>Section 2.18</u>.

Section 2.18 <u>Reinvestment of Principal Collections</u>.

On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth as certified in writing to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, prior to the end of the Revolving Period, the Servicer may, to the extent of any Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) direct the Collateral Agent to withdraw such funds for the purpose of reinvesting in additional Eligible Loan Assets to be Granted hereunder; *provided* that the following conditions are satisfied or waived in writing:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) all conditions precedent set forth in <u>Section 3.02</u> and <u>Section 3.04</u> have been satisfied;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) no Event of Default has occurred, or would result from such withdrawal and reinvestment, and no Unmatured Event of Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency exists or would result from such withdrawal and reinvestment (other than

------

any Unmatured Event of Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency which would be cured after giving effect to the use of such funds);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the representations and warranties contained in <u>Sections 4.01</u>, <u>4.02</u> and <u>4.03</u> hereof shall continue to be correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representation and warranty that is already qualified by materiality, in all respects), except to the extent relating to an earlier date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) delivery of a Disbursement Request and a Borrowing Base Certificate, each executed by the Borrower and a Responsible Officer of the Servicer; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) direct the Collateral Agent to withdraw such funds for the purpose of making payments in respect of the Advances Outstanding at such time in accordance with and subject to the terms of <u>Section 2.16</u>.

Upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in this <u>Section 2.18</u> (as certified by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent), the Collateral Agent shall withdraw funds from the Principal Collection Subaccount as directed by the Servicer in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (x) the amount requested by the Servicer for reinvestment or repayment and (y) the amount on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount on such day.

Section 2.19 <u>Defaulting Lenders</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the portion of the Advance funded by such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder and the Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders have taken or may have taken any action hereunder; *provided* that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders or Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: *first*, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; *second*, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; *third*, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; *fourth*, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by

------

any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; *fifth*, so long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and *sixth*, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; *provided* that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto; and;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Fee for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent, and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Borrower determines (such determination not to be unreasonably withheld) that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and the provisions of <u>clause (a)</u> above shall, from and after such determination, cease to be of further force or effect with respect to such Lender; *provided* that no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to a non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Replacement of a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender or requests compensation under <u>Section 2.10</u> or <u>Section 2.11</u>, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon not less than five (5) Business Days advance notice to the Administrative Agent and (if different) the related Lender, (x) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in <u>Section 12.04</u>), all of its respective interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender if a Lender accepts such assignment); *provided* that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent with respect to any assignee that is not already a Lender hereunder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (B) the assignee shall not be an Affiliate of any of the Borrower, the Servicer or the Transferor, (C) such assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal

------

to all outstanding Advances funded or maintained by such Lender, together with all accrued interest thereon and all accrued Fees, and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have agreed to, and shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders) to cause the adoption of, the applicable consent, waiver or amendment of the Transaction Documents or (y) terminate the Commitment of such Lender and repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the portion of the Advance held by such Lender as of such termination date, without the payment of any penalty, fee or premium. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to exist.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to <u>Section 2.19(c)(i)</u> above shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender's applicable Commitment and outstanding portion of the Advance funded by such Lender. Pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender's Commitment and outstanding portion of the Advance and (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Advance and Commitments so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and under each of the Transaction Documents and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned portion of the Advance and Commitments, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if any such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance reflecting such replacement within three (3) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance to such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance without any action on the part of the Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested any consent, waiver or amendment by any Lender or the Lenders to any matter pursuant to this Agreement, and such consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders, the Lenders or the Required Lenders, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment within five (5) Business Days' written notice to such Lender that such amendment has been agreed to by the Required Lenders shall be deemed a "Non-Consenting Lender." For the avoidance of doubt, (x) Non-Consenting Lender shall not include any Lender that abstains from voting on any consent, waiver or amendment if the vote of such Lender would not be required in order for such consent, waiver or amendment to be approved pursuant to this Agreement, and (y) if the Administrative Agent is also a Lender, any failure of the Administrative Agent, acting in its capacity as Administrative Agent, to grant any consent, waiver or amendment shall not result in the Administrative Agent, acting in its capacity as a Lender, being

------

deemed to be a Non-Consenting Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity is a Non-Consenting Lender and the Borrower has replaced the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 2.19</u>, then the Borrower shall have the right to remove and replace the Administrative Agent in accordance with <u>Section 9.01(h)</u>.

Section 2.20 <u>Benchmark Replacement Setting</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Benchmark Replacement (Dollar)</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if (A) a Benchmark Transition Event and (B) a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto have occurred prior to the Reference Time in connection with any setting of the then-current Benchmark (Dollar), then such Benchmark Replacement (Dollar) will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes under this Agreement and under any other Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without requiring any amendment to, or requiring any further action by or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes</u>. In connection with the implementation or administration of Term SOFR or a Benchmark Replacement (Dollar), the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without requiring any further action by or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations</u>. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify all the parties hereto in writing in advance (if feasible) of (i) any occurrence of (A) a Benchmark Transition Event and (B) the Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement (Dollar), and (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Benchmark Replacement (Non-Dollar)</u>. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines that a Benchmark Transition Event has arisen with respect to any Benchmark other than the Benchmark (Dollar) or Term CORRA, then the Administrative Agent may designate a new benchmark rate (which may include spread adjustments applicable to such rate or any rate based on such rate) to be used to calculate such Benchmark, which benchmark rate may be (i) a comparable successor rate that, at such time, is broadly accepted by the U.S. syndicated loan market for loans denominated in the applicable currency (as applicable) in lieu of the then-applicable Benchmark for such currency or (ii) such other benchmark rate designated by the Administrative Agent. Except as set forth in <u>clause (ii)</u> of the immediately preceding sentence, the designation of such alternative benchmark rate shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. If (x) the circumstances described in <u>clause (i)</u> or <u>clause (ii)</u> above have arisen and (y) the Benchmark for such currency cannot be determined for such Remittance Period in accordance with the definition of the applicable Benchmark, then until an alternate benchmark rate shall be determined in accordance with this <u>clause (d)</u>, for any Advance denominated in such currency, the Benchmark shall be equal to the benchmark for the Administrative Agent's cost of

------

funds in such currency (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent by written notice to the Borrower).

Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 2.20</u>, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding

absent manifest error and may be made in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if (A) a Canadian Benchmark Transition Event and (B) a Canadian Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Canadian Benchmark, then such Canadian Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Canadian Benchmark for all purposes under this Agreement and under any other Transaction Document in respect of such Canadian Benchmark setting and subsequent Canadian Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or requiring any further action by or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.

Section 2.21 <u>Currency Disruption Events; Inability to Determine Rates</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, in the event of a Currency Disruption Event, the affected Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower thereof, and such Lender's obligation to make or maintain Advances hereunder based on Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable, shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Advances based on Term

------

SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to a Lender's suspending its obligation to make or maintain Advances based on Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable, pursuant to <u>Section 2.21(a)</u>, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different lending office if such designation would enable such Lender to again make or maintain Advances based on Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable; *provided* that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no unreimbursed cost or legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably determined by such Lender), with the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such provision.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If, prior to the first day of any Remittance Period or prior to the date of any Advance, as applicable, either (i) the Administrative Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable, for the applicable Advance, or (ii) the Required Lenders determine and notify the Administrative Agent that Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable, with respect to such Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Advances, the Administrative Agent will so notify the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligations of the Lenders to make or maintain Advances based on Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable, shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon receipt of any notice described in <u>Section 2.21(a)</u> or <u>(c)</u>, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for the making or continuation of an Advance based on Term SOFR, BBSY Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, Daily Simple SONIA or any successor rate, as applicable, or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for an Advance based on the Benchmark (Dollar).

Section 2.22 <u>Eligible Currency</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the Pari Passu Provisions, any and all payments made by the Borrower under the Transaction Documents shall be made in the applicable Eligible Currency; *provided* that repayment of Advances in an Eligible Currency other than Dollars shall be made in the corresponding Eligible Currency in which such Advance was made. Each party hereto agrees that the Available Collections and all such other amounts described in <u>Section 2.04(a)</u> shall be applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in <u>Section 2.04(a)</u>. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby instruct the Collateral Agent to apply the Available Collections and all such other amounts described in <u>Section 2.04(a)</u> in accordance with <u>Section 2.04(a)</u>; *provided* that such payments shall be subject to availability of such funds pursuant to <u>Section 2.04(a)</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Servicer shall instruct the Account Bank, on the Determination Date immediately preceding each Payment Date, to convert amounts on deposit in the Collection Account into each Eligible Currency to the extent necessary to make payments pursuant to <u>Section 2.04(a)</u>, as applicable (as determined by the Servicer using the Spot Rate).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any Available Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount denominated in an Eligible Currency may be converted by the Account Bank into another Eligible Currency on any Business Day (other than a Payment Date) using the Spot Rate so long as (i) no Borrowing Base Deficiency exists either prior to and after giving effect to such conversion, and (ii) the converted amounts are used solely for purposes of acquiring a Loan Asset denominated in such other Eligible Currency pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u>. The Servicer shall provide no less than two (2) Business Days' prior written notice to the Account Bank of any such conversion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any foreign exchange transaction is required, the Administrative Agent shall instruct the Account Bank in writing to conduct the foreign exchange transaction at the prevailing Spot Rate one (1) Business Day prior to the conversion date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Account Bank may rely conclusively on the bases for the prevailing market rate and shall not be held liable for any associated losses (including without limitation any losses incurred on account of the difference between an indicative market rate quoted by the Account Bank and the actual market rate prevailing in respect of an executed trade); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Account Bank may receive any fees and spread on foreign exchange transactions customarily charged by the Account Bank in connection with any foreign exchange transaction(s) settled pursuant to this Agreement solely to the extent of Administrative Expenses payable to it pursuant to <u>Section 2.04</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Account Bank may convert currency itself or through any of its Affiliates and, in those cases, the Account Bank or, as the case may be, its Affiliate through which currency is converted, acts as principal for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without limitation, transaction spreads, sales margin, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under this Agreement and the rate that the Account Bank or any of its Affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The Account Bank makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained in any currency conversion under this Agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or as to the method by which that rate will be determined.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The foreign exchange transaction may be transmitted by the Account Bank to a sub-custodian or depositary.

------

Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.11</u> then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loan Assets hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to <u>Section 2.10</u> or <u>Section 2.11</u>, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.24 <u>CLO Takeout.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) On any Business Day, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or a portion of the Advances then outstanding and require the Collateral Agent to release its security interest and Lien on the related Loan Assets and Related Assets transferred in connection with a CLO Takeout (which may be effected by way of a distribution or otherwise), subject to the following terms and conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the CLO Vehicle shall have acquired all or a portion of the Loan Assets from the Borrower through the Transferor (or an Affiliate of the Transferor not including the Borrower), which transfer may occur via participation subject to elevation within sixty (60) days;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) on the date of such CLO Takeout, an amount at least equal to the principal amount of the Advances to be prepaid in connection with such CLO Takeout and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be deposited directly into the Collection Account; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In connection with any CLO Takeout, upon deposit of the amounts required by <u>clause (a)(v)</u> above into the Collection Account and without limiting the other releases provided for in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to release and transfer to the Borrower without recourse, representation or warranty all of the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in, to and under such Loan Asset(s) and related Collateral subject to such CLO Takeout and such portion of the Collateral subject to such CLO Takeout shall be released from the Lien hereunder.

Upon any such declaration or automatic occurrence, (i) the Revolving Period shall end and the Borrower shall cease purchasing Loan Assets from the Transferor under the Purchase and Sale Agreement or from any other third party and shall cease originating Loan Assets, (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may declare the Advances to be immediately due and payable in full (without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower) and any other Obligations to be immediately due and payable, (iii) [reserved], and (iv) all proceeds and distributions in respect of the Collateral shall be distributed by the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) as described in <u>Section 2.04(c)</u> (*provided* that the Borrower shall in any event remain liable to pay such Advances Outstanding and all such amounts and Obligations immediately in accordance with <u>Section 2.04(e)</u>). In addition, upon any such declaration or upon any such automatic occurrence, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, all other rights and remedies provided under the UCC of the applicable jurisdiction and other Applicable Law, which rights shall be cumulative. Without limiting any obligation of the Servicer hereunder, the Borrower confirms and agrees that the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties and at the direction of the Administrative Agent (or any designee thereof, including, the Servicer), following an Event of Default, shall, at its option, have the sole right to enforce the Borrower's rights and remedies under each Assigned Document, but without any obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under any such Assigned Document.

Section 7.02 <u>Additional Remedies of the Administrative Agent</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, upon the declaration or automatic occurrence of the Facility Maturity Date (including, the date on which the Facility Maturity Date is declared (or is deemed to have occurred automatically) pursuant to <u>Section 7.01</u>), the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances Outstanding, all accrued and unpaid Fees and Yield and any other Obligations are not immediately paid in full, then the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent, in addition to all other rights specified hereunder, shall have the right, in its own name and as agent for the Lenders, to immediately sell (at the Borrower's expense) in a commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market (if one exists) at such price or prices as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem satisfactory, any or all of the Collateral and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to sell all of the Collateral on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for the assets constituting the Collateral may not be liquid. Accordingly, the Administrative Agent may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any of the Collateral, and nothing contained herein shall obligate the Administrative Agent to liquidate any of the Collateral on the date the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders declare the Advances Outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable pursuant to <u>Section 7.01</u> or to liquidate all of the Collateral in the same manner or on the same Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent proposes to sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, at the request of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, the Borrower and the Servicer shall make available to (i) the Administrative Agent, on a timely basis, all information relating to the Collateral subject to sale, including, copies of any disclosure documents, contracts, financial statements of the applicable Obligors, covenant certificates and any other materials requested by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) each prospective bidder, on a timely basis, all reasonable information relating to the Collateral subject to sale, including, copies of any disclosure documents, contracts, financial statements of the applicable Obligors, covenant certificates and any other materials reasonably requested by each such bidder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrower and the Servicer, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Collateral Agent, or the Administrative Agent on its behalf, or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or in such parcels as the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) or such court may

------

determine. Pursuant to the UCC, each of the Borrower and the Collateral Agent hereby specifically agrees (x) that it shall not raise any objection to a Secured Party's purchase of the Collateral (through bidding on the obligations or otherwise) and (y) that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the principles set forth in various no action letters promulgated by the SEC staff (1) shall be considered to be a "public" sale for purposes of the UCC and (2) shall be considered to be commercially reasonable notwithstanding that a Secured Party purchases the Collateral at such a sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Collateral pursuant to this <u>Section 7.02</u> in excess of the Obligations will be applied by the Collateral Agent (as directed by the Administrative Agent) in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.04(c)</u>, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided herein and provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of any applicable state, to the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), all rights and remedies available to the Lenders at law, in equity or under any other agreement between any Lender and the Borrower. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to notify the Borrower and the Collateral Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; <u>provided</u> that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby irrevocably appoints, during the continuance of an Event of Default and at all times following the Facility Maturity Date, each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney (with full power of substitution) in its name, place and stead and at its expense, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement, including without limitation the following powers: (i) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (ii) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral in connection with any such sale or other disposition made pursuant hereto, (iii) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale or other disposition, the Borrower and the Servicer hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do hereunder and pursuant hereto, and (iv) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in connection with or pursuant to any Transaction Document. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and empowered, during the existence of an Event of Default and at all times following the Facility Maturity Date, on behalf of the Borrower or the Transferor, to endorse the name of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, upon any check, draft, instrument, receipt, instruction, or other document or agreement or item, coming into the Administrative Agent's possession, and to receive and apply the proceeds therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof. The Administrative Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable power of attorney, which is coupled with an interest, to execute all checks, drafts, receipts, instruments, instructions, or other documents, agreements, or items on behalf of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, either before or after demand of payment on the Obligations but only during the existence of an Event of Default, as shall be deemed by the Administrative Agent to be necessary or advisable, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, to preserve the security interests and Liens in the Collateral or to secure the repayment of the Obligations, and the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, in connection with or arising from its exercise of such power of attorney. The application by the Administrative Agent of such funds shall, unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise in writing, be the same as set forth in <u>Section 2.04</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) In connection with any sale or liquidation in whole or in part of the Collateral pursuant to <u>Section 7.02</u>, including without limitation, (a) upon the termination of the Commitments following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or (b) at the Facility Maturity Date, the Transferor (or its designated Affiliate or managed fund) shall, subject to the additional requirements set forth in this <u>Section 7.02(j)</u>, have the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Loan Assets included in the Collateral at a purchase price at least equal to the sum of the then outstanding Obligations, as determined by the Administrative Agent (the "<u>Exercise Notice Purchase Price</u>"). The Transferor may exercise such right by providing written notice (the "<u>Exercise Notice</u>") to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) of its election to exercise such right which shall include the Exercise Notice Purchase Price and shall be delivered not later than 5:00 p.m. on the Facility Maturity Date or within three (3) Business Days of the date on which the Transferor receives written notice from

------

the Administrative Agent of the occurrence of such Event of Default and termination of the Commitments, as applicable. Once an Exercise Notice is given by the Transferor (subject to the immediately succeeding sentence), the Transferor (or such Affiliate or managed fund designated in the Exercise Notice) shall be obligated, irrevocably and unconditionally, to purchase the Collateral, at the Exercise Notice Purchase Price referenced in such Exercise Notice, for settlement within the normal settlement period for such Collateral. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall cause liquidation of the Loan Assets to occur during the time that the Transferor is entitled to provide an Exercise Notice. The Exercise Notice Purchase Price must be received by the Administrative Agent, or its designee, in immediately available funds no later than ten (10) Business Days following delivery of the Exercise Notice hereunder, or, if earlier, the date of settlement for such Collateral. In the event that the Exercise Notice is not timely provided and/or the Exercise Notice Purchase Price is not timely received, each pursuant to the conditions set forth in this <u>Section 7.02(j)</u>, the Administrative Agent may forthwith liquidate the Loan Assets. Neither the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall cause the liquidation or disposition of the Loan Assets to occur during the time that the Transferor and its Affiliates are entitled to provide an Exercise Notice and purchase the Collateral pursuant to this <u>Section 7.02(j)</u>.

# <u>INDEMNIFICATION</u> 
Section 8.01 <u>Indemnities by the Borrower</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except for Taxes (other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim) and without limiting any other rights which the Affected Parties, the Secured Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian or any of their respective Affiliates may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Affected Parties, the Secured Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian and each of their respective Affiliates, assigns, officers, directors, employees and agents (each, an "<u>Indemnified Party</u>" for purposes of this <u>Article VIII</u>) against, and to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements of (x) one outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; *provided* that in the event of any conflict of interest, the Administrative Agent (and any Lender that is an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to separate counsel from each other Lender, (y) one outside counsel to the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian, and (z) one counsel per foreign or local jurisdiction to the parties set forth in each of <u>clause (x)</u> and <u>clause (y)</u> above (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as "<u>Indemnified Amounts</u>"), awarded against or actually incurred by such Indemnified Party arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or in respect of any of the Collateral or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, including the enforcement of this Agreement or any Transaction Document against the Borrower, regardless of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or shareholders); *provided* that Indemnified Amounts shall not be available to an Indemnified Party to the extent that such damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent

------

jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted solely from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party, (ii) result from the uncollectibility of any Loan Asset due to the Obligor's financial inability to pay or (iii) result from any loss in value of any Permitted Investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this <u>Section 8.01</u> shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following the Administrative Agent's written demand therefor on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party (and the Administrative Agent shall pay such amounts to the applicable Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such amounts). The Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Indemnified Party making a request for indemnification under this <u>Section 8.01</u>, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis for and the computations of the Indemnified Amounts with respect to which such indemnification is requested, which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this <u>Section 8.01</u> is unavailable to the Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, then the Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Borrower on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Borrower has made any payments in respect of Indemnified Amounts to the Administrative Agent on behalf of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this <u>Section 8.01</u> and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will promptly repay such amounts collected to the Borrower, without interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The obligations of the Borrower under this <u>Section 8.01</u> shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, the Servicer, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Borrower be liable to an Indemnified Party for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Borrower has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; provided, however, that if any Indemnified Party is liable for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages to any third party arising out of, in connection with, or a result of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, such Indemnified Party shall not be precluded from seeking reimbursement for such damages from the Borrower.

Section 8.02 <u>Indemnities by Servicer</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Without limiting any other rights which any Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts, awarded against or incurred by any Indemnified Party as a consequence the Servicer's breach of its duties hereunder or under any other Transaction Document constituting fraud, bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; *provided* that Indemnified Amounts shall not be available to an Indemnified Party (i) to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted solely from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party or its agent or subcontractors or a breach of any Lender's obligation to make any Advance under the Transaction Documents, (ii) resulting from the performance of the Loan Assets (including without limitation any change in the market value of such Loan Asset) unless such performance has resulted in a loss and was caused by a Servicer Default and (iii) resulting from any loss in value of any Permitted Investment; *provided* that the Servicer shall not have any liability hereunder to any Indemnified Party to the extent an Indemnified Party effects any settlement of a matter that is subject to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Servicer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Servicer agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent set forth in this Section 8.02. In no case shall the Servicer be responsible for any Indemnified Party's lost revenues or lost profits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any Indemnified Amounts shall be paid by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Indemnified Party, within five (5) Business Days following receipt by the Servicer of the Administrative Agent's written demand therefor (and the Administrative Agent shall pay such amounts to the applicable Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such amounts).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Servicer has made any indemnity payments to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this <u>Section 8.02</u> and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will promptly repay such amounts collected to the Servicer, without interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The obligations of the Servicer under this <u>Section 8.02</u> shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, the Borrower, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any indemnification pursuant to this <u>Section 8.02</u> shall not be payable from the Collateral.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Servicer shall have no liability for making indemnification hereunder to the extent any such indemnification constitutes recourse for uncollectible or uncollected Loan Assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Servicer be liable to an Indemnified Party for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Servicer has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; provided, however, that if any Indemnified Party is liable for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages to any third party arising out of, in connection with, or a result of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, such Indemnified Party shall not be precluded from seeking reimbursement for such damages from the Servicer.

Section 8.03 <u>Waiver of Certain Claims</u>. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, none of the Borrower or the Servicer shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents.

Section 8.04 <u>Legal Proceedings</u>. In the event an Indemnified Party becomes involved in any action, claim, or legal, governmental or administrative proceeding (an "<u>Action</u>") for which it seeks indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the other party or parties against whom it seeks indemnification (the "<u>Indemnifying Party</u>") in writing of the nature and particulars of the Action; *provided* that its failure to do so shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure has a material adverse effect on the Indemnifying Party. Upon written notice to the Indemnified Party acknowledging in writing that the indemnification provided hereunder applies to the Indemnified Party in connection with the Action (subject to the exclusion in the first sentence of <u>Section 8.01</u>, the first sentence of <u>Section 8.02</u>, as applicable), the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of the Action at its expense with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain separate counsel in connection with the Action, and the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party after the Indemnifying Party has done so; *provided* that if the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there may be a conflict between the positions of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the Action, or that the Indemnifying Party is not conducting the defense of the Action in a manner reasonably protective of the interests of the Indemnified Party, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket external legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party; *provided*, *further*, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (and any required local counsel) for such Indemnified Party, which firm (and local counsel, if any) shall be designated in writing to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Action, it shall have full control over the conduct of such defense; *provided* that the Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall, as requested by the Indemnified Party or its counsel, consult with and keep them informed with respect to the conduct of such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle an Action without the prior written approval of the Indemnified

------

Party unless such settlement provides for the full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in connection with the Action. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of the Action.

Section 8.05 <u>After-Tax Basis</u>. Indemnification under <u>Sections 8.01</u> and <u>Section 8.02</u> shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any Tax consequences to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder and any Tax deduction or other Tax benefit in respect of the indemnified loss, including the effect of such Tax or refund on the amount of Tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party.

# <u>THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT</u> 
Section 9.01 <u>The Administrative Agent</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Appointment</u>. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint additional agents to act on its behalf and for the benefit of each Lender. Each Lender further authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Delegation of Duties</u>. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

Each Secured Party hereby waives any and all claims against the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except, subject to <u>Section 9.01(b),</u> for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower or the Transferor), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation and shall not be responsible for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents on the part of the Borrower, the Transferor, or the Servicer or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower, the Transferor, or the Servicer; (iv) shall not be responsible for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by email) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; (vi) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith; and (vii) shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.

The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders; *provided* that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provision of this Agreement or shall expose the Administrative Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise. In the event the Administrative Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the Administrative Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten (10) Business Days of such Person's receipt of such request, then such Lender shall be deemed to have consented to the relevant action.

Each Lender and each Secured Party acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Transferor or any of their respective Affiliates or review or approval of any of the Collateral, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any of the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender and each Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent's Affiliates, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender and each Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent's Affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Servicer), ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Share of its related Lender, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder, including, but not limited to, the payment of principal, interest and fees. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Share of its related Lender, promptly upon demand for any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or

------

responsibilities under, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent that such expenses are incurred in the interests of or otherwise in respect of the Lenders hereunder and/or thereunder and to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or the Servicer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Successor Administrative Agent</u>. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time, effective upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, by giving at least five (5) days' written notice thereof to each Lender and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause by the Lenders acting jointly.

Each Lender agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which successor Administrative Agent shall be either (x) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 or (y) an Affiliate of such a bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this <u>Article IX</u> shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Payments by the Administrative Agent</u>. Unless specifically allocated to a specific Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in the applicable Advances Outstanding, or if there are no Advances Outstanding in accordance with their related Lender's most recent Commitments, on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless such amounts are received after 12:00 noon on such Business Day, in which case the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay such amounts to each Lender on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to such Lender not later than the following Business Day.

Secured Party hereby appoints the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interests granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including, the execution by the Collateral Agent as secured party/assignee of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Loan Assets now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate for the purposes stated hereinabove. Nothing in this <u>Section 10.02(c)</u> shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower or the Servicer of their respective obligations to protect the interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral, including to file financing and continuation statements in respect of the Collateral in accordance with <u>Section 5.01(u)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Administrative Agent may direct the Collateral Agent to take any such incidental action hereunder.

In the event the Collateral Agent requests the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Except as expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy available to it under this Agreement unless and until (and to the extent) expressly so directed by the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the request or direction of any Secured Party, to the extent that this Agreement provides such Secured Party the right to so direct the Collateral Agent, or the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter hereunder, including an Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent has knowledge of such matter or written notice thereof is received by the Collateral Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Agent may request written instructions from the Administrative Agent as to the course of action desired by it. If the Collateral Agent does not receive such instructions within two (2) Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions received after

------

such two (2) 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Concurrently herewith, the Administrative Agent directs the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent is authorized to enter into the Control Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Collateral Agent's rights, protections and immunities provided herein shall apply to the Collateral Agent for any actions taken or omitted to be taken under the Control Agreement in such capacity.

Any Person into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent, shall be the successor to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement (and shall be deemed to have expressly assumed all obligations of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement) without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement; *provided* that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible to act in such capacity under this Agreement.

Section 10.04 <u>Collateral Agent Compensation</u>. As compensation for its Collateral Agent activities hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the Collateral Agent Fees and Collateral Agent Expenses from the Borrower as set forth in the Collateral Agent and Collateral Custodian Fee Letter, payable to the extent of funds available therefor pursuant to the provisions of <u>Section 2.04</u>. The Collateral Agent's entitlement to receive the Collateral Agent Fees (excluding any unpaid outstanding amounts as of that date) shall cease on the earlier to occur of: (a) its removal as Collateral Agent pursuant to <u>Section 10.05</u> or (b) the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.05 <u>Collateral Agent Removal</u>. The Collateral Agent may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative Agent by notice given in writing to the Collateral Agent (the "<u>Collateral Agent Termination Notice</u>"); *provided* that, notwithstanding its receipt of a Collateral Agent Termination Notice, the Collateral Agent shall continue to act in such capacity until a successor Collateral Agent has been appointed and has agreed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder; *provided*, *further*, that the Collateral Agent shall continue to receive compensation of its fees and expenses in accordance with <u>Section 10.04</u> above while so serving as the Collateral Agent prior to a successor Collateral Agent being appointed. In the case of a resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, if no successor shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Agent within ninety

(90) days after the giving of such notice of resignation or removal, the Collateral Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Collateral Agent makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral, and will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal action hereunder that might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any fiduciary relationship with any party hereto or any Secured Party in its capacity as such, and no implied covenants, functions, obligations or responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed and stipulated by the other parties hereto that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion hereunder and shall have no investment or management responsibility.

The Collateral Agent shall in all events have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Administrative Agent. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from circumstances beyond its control (such circumstances include but are not limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications services).

Section 10.07 <u>Collateral Agent Resignation</u>.

The Collateral Custodian shall segregate the Required Loan Documents on its inventory system and will not commingle the physical Required Loan Documents with any other files of the Collateral Custodian other than those, if any, relating to the Transferor and its Affiliates and subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) On the Reporting Date of each month, the Collateral Custodian shall provide a written report to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer (in a form mutually agreeable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian) identifying each Loan Asset for which it holds Required Loan Documents and listing each document delivered to with respect to a Loan Asset.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, the Collateral Custodian shall not have any fiduciary relationship with any party hereto or any Secured Party in its capacity as such, and no implied covenants, functions, obligations or responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Custodian. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed and stipulated by the other parties hereto that the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to exercise any discretion hereunder and shall have no investment or management responsibility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) If, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Custodian is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Custodian may request written instructions from the Administrative Agent as to the course of action desired by the Administrative Agent. If the Collateral Custodian does not receive such instructions within two (2) Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Custodian may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Custodian shall act in accordance with instructions received after such two (2) 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 Custodian 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Nothing herein shall prevent the Collateral Custodian or any of its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or from rendering services unrelated to the transactions under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Collateral Custodian is party of any kind to any Person.

In the event the Collateral Custodian receives instructions from the Collateral Agent, the Servicer or the Borrower which conflict with any instructions received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian shall rely on and follow the instructions given by the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Administrative Agent may direct the Collateral Custodian to take any such incidental action hereunder.

In the event the Collateral Custodian requests the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Collateral Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the request or direction of any Secured Party, to the extent that this Agreement provides such Secured Party the right to so direct the Collateral Custodian, or the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) its removal as Collateral Custodian pursuant to <u>Section 11.05</u>, (b) its resignation as Collateral Custodian pursuant to <u>Section 11.07</u> of this Agreement or (c) the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.05 <u>Collateral Custodian Removal</u>. The Collateral Custodian may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative Agent by notice given in writing to the Collateral Custodian (the "<u>Collateral Custodian Termination Notice</u>"); *provided* that, notwithstanding its receipt of a Collateral Custodian Termination Notice, the Collateral Custodian shall continue to act in such capacity until a successor Collateral Custodian has been appointed and has agreed to act as Collateral Custodian hereunder. In the case of a resignation or removal of the Collateral Custodian, if no successor shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Custodian within ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice of resignation or removal, the Collateral Custodian may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Custodian.

for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct or grossly negligent performance or omission of its duties.

In no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Collateral Custodian has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of <u>Section 12.01(a)</u>, the written consent of all of the Lenders (or, with respect to clause (iv) below, each Lender directly affected thereby) shall be required for any amendment, modification or waiver (i) reducing any Advances Outstanding or the Yield thereon, (ii) postponing any date for any payment of any Advance or the Yield thereon, (iii) modifying the provisions of this <u>Section 12.01</u>, (iv) increasing, reducing or extending the term of the Commitments of any Lender or the Facility Amount or modifying <u>clause (a)</u> of the definition of "Commitment Termination Date", (v) modifying the definition of the "Required Lenders" or modifying in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any rights under this Agreement or modifying any provision under this Agreement, (vi) except as permitted by the Transaction Documents, releasing the Lien of the Collateral Agent under the Transaction Documents on any material portion of the Collateral, (vii) modifying the definition of the term "Advance Rate", "Advance Rate Matrix", "Availability", "Borrowing Base", "Borrowing Base (Aggregate)", "Borrowing Base (AUD)", "Borrowing Base (CAD)", "Borrowing Base (Dollars)", "Borrowing Base (EUR)", "Borrowing Base (GBP)", "Borrowing Base Deficiency", "Borrowing Base Test", "Borrowing Base Test (Aggregate)", "Collateral Quality Tests", "Eligible Currency" (in a manner that would include an additional currency), "Eligible Loan Asset" (subject to the provisos in the introductory paragraph of Schedule II), "Eligibility Criteria" (subject to the provisos in the introductory paragraph of Schedule II), "Leverage Based Valuation Haircut", "Maximum Portfolio Advance Rate", "Specified Borrowing Base Deficiency", or any defined term used therein, in each case in a manner that would have the effect of making more credit available to the Borrower, or make such provisions less restrictive to the Borrower, (viii) modifying the provisions of Sections 2.04(a), (b) or (c), Section 9.01(i) or any related definitions or provisions that would alter the order of applications of proceeds or would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby or (ix)

or at such other address as such party may hereafter specify in a notice given in the manner required under this <u>Section 12.02</u>. All such notices and correspondence shall be deemed given (a) if sent by certified or registered mail, three (3) Business Days after being postmarked, (b) if sent by overnight delivery service or by hand delivery, when received at the above stated addresses or when delivery is refused and (c) if sent by email, when received,

Section 12.03 <u>No Waiver; Remedies</u>. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 12.04 <u>Binding Effect; Assignability; Multiple Lenders</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian and their respective successors and permitted assigns. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (unless such assignment is to an Affiliate of a Lender or is otherwise required by Applicable Law), each Lender and their respective successors and assigns may assign, grant a security interest or sell a participation interest in, (i) this Agreement

------

and such Lender's rights and obligations hereunder and interest herein in whole or in part (including by way of the sale of participation interests therein) and/or (ii) any Advance or any I/O Loan (or portion thereof) to any Person; *provided* that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, the Borrower shall be required to provide its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed with respect to an assignee that is not a Disqualified Institution) to such assignment to any Person that is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no such consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment of any I/O Loan (or portion thereof), any grant of a security interest or sale of a participation interest to any Person or an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender). Notwithstanding the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence: (i) no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment under this <u>Section 12.04(a)</u> to a Disqualified Institution following the occurrence of an Event of Default unless such assignment occurs while such Event of Default is continuing and after such Event of Default has been continuing for a period of at least three (3) months and (ii) all assignments of the Commitment and Advances of a Lender with respect to Tranche A Advances and Tranche B Advances shall be made, *pro rata*, with respect to the Commitment and outstanding Advances of such Lender in respect of such Lender's Tranche A Advances and Tranche B Advances. Any such assignee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a fully-executed assignment and acceptance agreement in the form of <u>Exhibit K</u> hereto (an "<u>Assignment and Acceptance</u>"). The parties to any such assignment, grant or sale of a participation interest shall execute and deliver to the related Lender for its acceptance and recording in its books and records, such agreement or document as may be satisfactory to such parties and the applicable Lender. None of the Borrower, the Transferor or the Servicer may assign, or permit any Lien to exist upon, any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any Transaction Document or any interest herein or in any Transaction Document without the prior written consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section 12.04</u>, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including, rights to payment of principal and interest with respect to the Advances and interest with respect to the I/O Loans, as applicable) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; *provided* that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Affected Party and each Indemnified Party shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon the effectiveness of any assignment by any Lender of all or any of its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents, any Advance and/or any I/O Loan pursuant to <u>Section 12.04(a)</u> and the delivery to the Administrative Agent of all assignment documentation and the Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall revise <u>Annex A</u> to reflect such assignment.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant's interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Transaction Documents (the "<u>Participant</u> <u>Register</u>"); <u>provided</u> that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Transaction 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 and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In the event any Lender sells a participation in this Agreement or any Advance, the Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 2.10</u> and <u>2.11</u> (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under <u>Section 2.11(g)</u> (it being understood that the documentation required under <u>Section 2.11(g)</u> shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this <u>Section 12.04</u>; provided that such participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of <u>Section 2.19(c)</u> as if it were an assignee under this <u>Section 12.04</u>; and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under <u>Section 2.10</u> or <u>2.11</u>, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender 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 participant acquired the applicable participation.

Section 12.05 <u>Term of This Agreement</u>. This Agreement, including, the Borrower's representations and covenants set forth in <u>Articles IV</u> and <u>V</u> and the Servicer's representations, covenants and duties set forth in <u>Articles IV</u>, <u>V</u> and <u>VI</u>, shall remain in full force and effect until the Collection Date; *provided* that the rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and warranty made or deemed made by the Borrower or the Servicer pursuant to <u>Articles III</u> and <u>IV</u> and the indemnification and payment provisions of <u>Article VIII</u>, <u>IX</u> and <u>Article XII</u> and the provisions of <u>Section 2.10</u>, <u>Section 2.11</u>, <u>Section 12.07</u> and <u>Section 12.09</u> shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.06 <u>GOVERNING LAW; JURY WAIVER</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF EACH TRANSACTION DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION FOR PURPOSES OF ENFORCING ITS RIGHTS AND REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE COLLATERAL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN <u>PARAGRAPH (B)</u> OF THIS <u>Section 12.06</u>. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>JURY WAIVER</u>. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (i) WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO (1) THIS AGREEMENT; (2) ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT; OR (3) ANY CONDUCT, ACTS OR OMISSIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OF BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, A LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR OTHER AFFILIATES, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE,

------

AND (ii) AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In addition to the rights of indemnification granted to the Indemnified Parties under <u>Section 8.01</u> and <u>Section 8.02</u> hereof, the Borrower agrees to pay, on the Payment Date pertaining to the Remittance Period in which such cost is incurred (or any prior Remittance Period to the extent not previously paid) and in accordance with <u>Section 2.04</u>, on demand all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian incurred in connection with (x) the preparation, execution, delivery, administration (including periodic auditing), syndication, renewal, amendment or modification of, any waiver or consent issued in connection with, this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, including, without limitation, the reasonable, documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian as to their respective rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any (including counsel fees and expenses), incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian as to their respective rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or to the Collateral Custodian in connection herewith, and (y) the enforcement or potential enforcement of this Agreement or any Transaction Document by such Person and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith; *provided* that the Borrower shall only be liable hereunder only for the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of (x) one outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; *provided* that in the event of any conflict of interest, the Administrative Agent (and any Lender that is an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to separate counsel from each other Lender, (y) one outside counsel to the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian, and (z) one counsel per foreign or local jurisdiction to the parties set forth in each of <u>clause (x)</u> and <u>clause (y)</u> above.

Section 12.09 <u>Recourse Against Certain Parties</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision set forth herein, no claim may be made by any party hereto or any other Person against any party hereto or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect to any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and each party hereto hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected; *provided* that this sentence shall in no way limit or vitiate the indemnity obligations of the Borrower or the Servicer hereunder with respect to a claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against any Indemnified Party which is brought by a Person not party hereto or brought in breach of this provision.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No obligation or liability to any Obligor under any of the Loan Assets is intended to be assumed by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any Secured Party under or as a result of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Secured Parties accept and agree that they shall have no recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Borrower contained in this Agreement against any shareholder, officer or director of the Borrower as such, by the enforcement of any assignment or by any proceeding; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is a corporate obligation of the Borrower and no liability shall attach to, or be incurred by, the shareholders, officers, agents or directors of the Borrower as such, or any of them, under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants and agreements of the Borrower contained in this Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breach by the Borrower of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements either at law or by statute or certification of every such shareholder, officer, agent or director is hereby expressly waived by the Secured Parties as a condition of any consideration of the execution of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement are payable

------

solely out of the assets of the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, no recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of the Advances against the Servicer, the Transferor or any Affiliate, shareholder, manager, officer, director, employee or member of the Servicer or the Transferor or their respective successors or assigns. The foregoing non-recourse provisions shall in no way affect any rights the Secured Parties might have against any incorporator, affiliate, stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Borrower or any other Person to the extent of any fraud, misappropriation, embezzlement or any other financial crime constituting a felony by such Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The provisions of this <u>Section 12.09</u> shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.10 <u>Execution in Counterparts; Severability; Integration</u>. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by email in portable document format (.pdf) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In the event that any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. This Agreement and any agreements or letters (including fee letters) executed in connection herewith contains the final and complete integration of all prior and contemporaneous expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior and contemporaneous oral or written understandings other than any fee letter delivered by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. Moreover, the parties to this Agreement waive reliance on any representation made by any other party, whether orally or in writing, prior to the execution of this Agreement.

Section 12.11 <u>Characterization of Conveyances Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale</u> <u>Agreement</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Eligible Loan Assets by the Transferor to the Borrower as contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement be, and be treated for all purposes as, a sale by the Transferor of such Eligible Loan Assets. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Eligible Loan Assets by the Transferor to the Borrower to secure a debt or other obligation of the Transferor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Eligible Loan Assets are held to continue to be property of the Transferor, then the parties hereto agree that: (i) the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement under Applicable Law; (ii) as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the transfer of the Eligible Loan Assets provided for in the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by the Transferor to the Borrower of a first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in all of the Transferor's right, title and interest in and to the Eligible Loan Assets and all amounts payable to the holders of the Eligible Loan Assets in accordance with the terms thereof and all

------

proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Controlled Accounts, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (iii) the possession by the Borrower (or the Collateral Custodian on its behalf) of Loan Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be, subject to <u>clause (iv)</u> below, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC; and (iv) acknowledgements from Persons holding such property shall be deemed acknowledgements from custodians, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Borrower for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under Applicable Law. The parties further agree that any assignment of the interest of the Borrower pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Borrower shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if the Purchase and Sale Agreement was deemed to create a security interest in the Eligible Loan Assets, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Eligible Loan Assets conveyed by the Transferor to the Borrower pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall constitute assets owned by the Borrower and shall not be part of the Transferor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Transferor under any bankruptcy or similar law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Borrower agrees to treat, and shall cause the Transferor to treat, for all purposes other than for U.S. federal and state income tax, the transactions effected by the Purchase and Sale Agreement as sales of assets to the Borrower.

Section 12.12 Confidentiality.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Servicer, the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Transferor and the Collateral Custodian shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and all information with respect to the other parties, including all information regarding the business of the Borrower and the Servicer hereto and their respective businesses obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except that each such party and its officers and employees may (i) disclose such information to its external accountants, advisors (including but not limited to advisors engaged by the Administrative Agent to engage in due diligence, portfolio management, monitoring and reporting solutions), investigators, auditors, attorneys, and in the case of the Borrower, actual or prospective investors in debt or equity securities of the Transferor ("Excepted Persons"); *provided* that each Excepted Person shall, as a condition to any such disclosure, agree for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian that such information shall be kept confidential in accordance with this <u>Section 12.12</u> and used solely in connection with such Excepted Person's evaluation of, or relationship with, the Borrower and its Affiliates; *provided*, *further*, that, upon such agreement to keep such information confidential, the

------

Borrower and its Affiliates shall be deemed to have consented to the disclosure of such information to such Excepted Person, (ii) disclose such information as is required by Applicable Law and (iii) disclose this Agreement and such information in any suit, action, proceeding or investigation (whether in law or in equity or pursuant to arbitration) involving any of the Transaction Documents for the purpose of defending itself, reducing its liability, or protecting or exercising any of its claims, rights, remedies, or interests under or in connection with any of the Transaction Documents. It is understood that the financial terms that may not be disclosed except in compliance with this <u>Section 12.12(a)</u> include, all fees and other pricing terms, and all Events of Default, Servicer Defaults, and priority of payment provisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower and the Servicer each hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian by each other or (ii) by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them, or to any provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to any Lender in relation to its Advances hereunder; *provided* that (x) such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such information and agrees for the benefit of the Borrower and the Servicer to hold such information confidential in accordance with this <u>Section 12.12</u> and (y) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Person is not a Disqualified Institution; *provided*, *further*, that at no time shall nonpublic information consisting of any internal credit memorandum with respect to any Obligor and any Loan Asset be disclosed to a Disqualified Institution unless an Event of Default has occurred and has been continuing for at least two months following the initial occurrence of such Event of Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit (i) disclosure of any and all information that is or becomes publicly known (after such information becomes publicly known); (ii) disclosure of any and all information (A) if required to do so by any applicable statute, law, rule or regulation, (B) to any government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee any aspects of the Lenders', the Administrative Agent's, the Collateral Agent's, the Account Bank's or the Collateral Custodian's business or that of their Affiliates, (C) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or arbitration to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Account Bank or an officer, director, employer, shareholder or affiliate of any of the foregoing is a party, (D) in any preliminary or final offering circular, registration statement or contract or other document approved in advance by the Borrower, the Servicer or the Transferor, (E) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or (F) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian having a need to know the same, *provided* that the disclosing party advises such recipient of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed; or (iii) any other disclosure authorized by the Borrower, the Servicer or the Transferor.

Section 12.21 <u>Return of Certain Payments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender (and each participant of any Lender, by its acceptance of a participation) hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds (or any portion thereof) received by such Lender (a "<u>Recipient Lender</u>") from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Recipient Lender (whether or not known to such Recipient Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a "<u>Payment</u>") and demands the return of such Payment, such Recipient Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment as to which such a demand was made. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Recipient Lender under this <u>Section 12.21(a)</u> shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without limitation of <u>clause (a)</u> above, each Recipient Lender further acknowledges and agrees that if such Recipient Lender receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in an amount, or on a date different from the amount and/or date specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a "<u>Payment Notice</u>"), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Recipient Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, it understands and agrees at the time of receipt of such Payment that an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error) with respect to such Payment. Each Recipient

------

Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any Payment required to be returned by a Recipient Lender under this <u>Section 12.21</u> shall be made in same day funds in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Recipient Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of SOFR and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. Each Recipient Lender hereby agrees that it shall not assert and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives, any right to retain such Payment, and any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment or similar right to any demand by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payment received, including without limitation any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Borrower and each other Secured Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event any Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) the receipt by any Recipient Lender of a Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed to such Lender by the Borrower or any other Secured Party except, in each case, to the extent that the funds used to make such Payment were received from the Borrower in repayment of the Obligations.

**GOLDMAN SACHS PRIVATE CREDIT CORP.**

**DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICING PLAN**

November 11, 2025

This Distribution and Servicing Plan (this "Plan") has been adopted on a voluntary basis and in conformity with Rule 12b-1 (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), by Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Fund"), with respect to its classes of shares of common stock (each, a "Class") listed on <u>Appendix A</u>, as amended from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

**1. Distribution Fee and Shareholder Servicing Fee**

The Fund may pay to Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the "Placement Agent"), in its capacity as principal underwriter of the Fund's shares of common stock, with respect to and at the expense of each Class listed on <u>Appendix A</u>, a fee for (i) distribution and sales support services (the "Distribution Fee"), as applicable, and/or (ii) shareholder services (the "Servicing Fee"), and each as more fully described below (together, the "Shareholder Servicing and/or Distribution Fee"), such fee to be paid monthly at the rate per annum of the aggregate NAV as of the beginning of the first calendar day of each applicable month of the Class specified with respect to such Class under the column "Shareholder Servicing and/or Distribution Fee" on <u>Appendix A</u>. The Distribution Fee under this Plan will be used primarily to compensate the Placement Agent for such services provided in connection with the offering and sale of shares of the applicable Class, and to reimburse the Placement Agent for related expenses incurred, including payments by the Placement Agent to compensate or reimburse brokers, other financial institutions or other industry professionals (collectively, "Selling Agents"), for distribution services and sales support services provided and related expenses incurred by such Selling Agents. Payments of the Distribution Fee on behalf of a particular Class must be in consideration of services rendered for or on behalf of such Class. However, joint distribution or sales support financing with respect to the shares of the Class (which financing may also involve other investment portfolios or companies that are affiliated persons of such a person, or affiliated persons of the Placement Agent) are permitted in accordance with applicable law. Payments of the Servicing Fee will be used to compensate the Placement Agent for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts services provided to shareholders in the related Class and to reimburse the Placement Agent for related expenses incurred, including payments by the Placement Agent to compensate or reimburse brokers, dealers, other financial institutions or other industry professionals that are furnishing such services. Payments of the Shareholder Servicing and/or Distribution Fee may be made without regard to expenses actually incurred.

**2. Calculation and Payment of Fees**

The amount of the Shareholder Servicing and/or Distribution Fee payable with respect to each Class listed on <u>Appendix A</u> will be calculated at the rate per annum of the aggregate NAV as of the beginning of the first calendar day of each applicable month, payable monthly in arrears, at the applicable annual rates indicated on <u>Appendix A</u>. The Shareholder Servicing and/or Distribution Fee will be calculated and paid separately for each Class.

BUSINESS.31586709.5

------

**3. Approval of Plan**

This Plan will become effective, as to any Class (including any Class not currently listed on <u>Appendix A</u>), upon its approval by (a) a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not "interested persons" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Plan or in any agreements related to this Plan ("Qualified Director"), pursuant to a vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the approval of this Plan (or as may otherwise be permitted by applicable law and regulations or by orders of the Securities and Exchange Commission), and (b) with respect to Section 1 of this Plan only, if this Plan is adopted for a Class after any public offering of shares of the Class or the sale of shares of the Class to persons who are not affiliated persons of the Fund, affiliated persons of such persons, promoters of the Fund, or affiliated persons of such promoters, a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of such Class.

**4. Continuance of the Plan**

This Plan will continue in effect with respect to a Class for one year from the date set forth above, and from year to year thereafter indefinitely so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Fund's Board of Directors in the manner described in Section 3(a) above.

**5. Implementation**

All agreements with any person relating to implementation of this Plan with respect to any Class shall be in writing, and any agreement related to this Plan with respect to any Class shall provide: (a) that such agreement may be terminated at any time, without payment of any penalty, by vote of a majority of the Qualified Director or by a majority vote of the outstanding voting securities of the relevant Class, on not more than 60 days' written notice to any other party to the agreement; and (b) that such agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined under the 1940 Act).

For the purposes of this Plan, the "affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares" of a Fund means the affirmative vote, at a duly called and held meeting of shareholders of the Fund, (a) of the holders of 67% or more of the shares of the Fund present (in person or by proxy) and entitled to vote at the meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the meeting are present in person or by proxy or (b) of the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the meeting, whichever is less. For the purposes of this Plan, the terms "interested person" and "assignment" have their respective meanings defined in the 1940 Act, subject, however, to the Rules and Regulations under the 1940 Act and any applicable guidance or interpretation of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff; and the term "approve at least annually" will be construed in a manner consistent with the 1940 Act and the Rules and Regulations under the 1940 Act and any applicable guidance or interpretation of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff.

**6. Termination**

This Plan may be terminated at any time with respect to the shares of any Class by vote of a majority of the Qualified Director, or by a majority vote of the outstanding voting securities of the relevant Class.

**7. Amendments**

This Plan may not be amended with respect to any Class so as to increase materially the amount of the Shareholder Servicing and/or Distribution Fee with respect to such Class without approval in the manner described in Section 3(a) above and by a majority vote of the outstanding voting securities of the relevant

BUSINESS.31586709.5

------

Class. All material amendments to this Plan shall be approved in the manner provided for approval of this Plan in Section 3(a) above.

**8. Written Reports**

While this Plan is in effect, the Fund's Board of Directors will receive, and will review, at least quarterly, written reports complying with the requirements of the Rule, which set out the amounts expended under this Plan and the purposes for which those expenditures were made.

**9. Preservation of Materials**

The Fund will preserve copies of this Plan, any agreement relating to this Plan and any report made pursuant to Section 8 above, for a period of not less than six years (the first two years in an easily accessible place) from the date of this Plan, agreement or report.

**MULTIPLE CLASS PLAN**

November 11, 2025

This Multiple Class Plan (this "Plan") is adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), by Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Fund").

<u>W I T N E S S E T H</u>:

**WHEREAS**, the Fund is a closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company;

**WHEREAS**, the Fund relies on exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits it to issue multiple classes of shares, and one of the conditions of this relief is that the Fund must comply with the provisions of Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act as though such rule applied to business development companies;

**WHEREAS**, the shares of common stock of the Fund (the "Shares") are divided into one or more separate classes;

**WHEREAS**, the Fund desires to adopt this Plan in order that the Fund may issue multiple classes of Shares (each, a "Class"); and

**WHEREAS**, the Board of Directors of the Fund (the "Board", and each member, a "Director"), including a majority of the Directors who are not "interested persons" (as defined by the 1940 Act) of the Fund (the "Independent Directors"), in considering whether the Fund should adopt and implement this Plan, has evaluated such information and considered such pertinent factors as it deemed necessary to undertake an informed evaluation of this Plan and determination as to whether this Plan should be adopted and implemented, and has determined that the adoption and implementation of this Plan, including the expense allocation contemplated herein, are in the best interests of each Class individually, as well as the best interests of the Fund;

**NOW THEREFORE**, the Fund adopts this Plan pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act, on the following terms and conditions:

**1.**The effective date of this Plan (the "Effective Date") shall be the date first set forth above.

**2.**The Fund may issue Shares in one or more Classes, as set forth in <u>Exhibit A</u>, as may be amended from time to time. Shares so issued will have the rights and preferences set forth in the Fund's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws (each as amended and/or restated from time to time), any applicable resolutions adopted by the Board from time to time, and the Fund's then current confidential private placement memorandum (as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, including by the information incorporated by reference therein, the "PPM") relating to the Classes.

BUSINESS.31642339.3

------

**3.**Shares issued in Classes will be issued subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act, including, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)each Class will have a different arrangement for shareholder services or the distribution of Shares or both, and will pay all of the expenses of that arrangement, as set forth in <u>Exhibit A</u>;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)each Class may pay a different share of other expenses, not including advisory or custodial fees or other expenses related to the management of the Fund's assets, if these expenses are actually incurred in a different amount by that Class, or if the Class receives services of a different kind or to a different degree than other Classes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)each Class may pay a different advisory fee to the extent that any difference in amount paid is the result of the application of the same performance fee provisions in the advisory contract of the Fund to the different investment performance of each Class;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)each Class will have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to shareholders that relates solely to its arrangement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)each Class will have separate voting rights on any matter submitted to shareholders in which the interests of one Class differ from the interests of any other Class;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)except as otherwise permitted under Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act, each Class will have the same rights and obligations as each other Class; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Shares of one Class may be exchanged, including at the shareholder's option, for Shares of another class of the Fund (an "intra-Fund exchange"), if and to the extent an applicable intra-Fund exchange privilege is disclosed in the Fund's PPM as from time to time in effect and subject to the terms and conditions (including the imposition or waiver of any sales load, repurchase fee or early withdrawal charge) set forth in the PPM, provided that the shareholder requesting the intra-Fund exchange meets the eligibility requirements of the Class into which such shareholder seeks to exchange.

**4.**Income, gain, loss and expenses not allocated to specific Classes shall be charged to the Fund and allocated to each Class in a manner consistent with Rule 18f-3(c)(1)(i).

**5.**Nothing in this Plan will be deemed to require the Fund to take any action contrary to its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, each as amended and/or restated from time to time, or any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement to which it is subject or by which it is bound, or to relieve or deprive the Board of the responsibility for and control of the conduct of the affairs of the Fund.

**6.**This Plan will continue in effect indefinitely unless terminated by a vote of the Board.

**7.**This Plan may be amended at any time by the Board, provided that any material amendment of this Plan will be effective only upon approval by a vote of the Board, and a majority of the Independent Directors.

**8.**This Plan will be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware and the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act.

**9.**If any provision of this Plan is held or made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Plan will not be affected thereby.
