For positions with multiple outstanding contracts, the spread for the largest outstanding contract is shown. Listed below are the index rates as of December 31, 2025, which was the last business day of the period on which the applicable index rates were determined. The actual index rate for each loan listed may not be the applicable index rate outstanding as of December 31, 2025, as the loan may have priced or repriced based on an index rate prior to December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(d)</sup> Denotes that all or a portion of the contract was indexed to the Three-Month AUD, which was 3.74% as of December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(e)</sup> Denotes that all or a portion of the contract was indexed to SONIA, which was 3.73% as of December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(g)</sup> Denotes that all or a portion of the contract was indexed to the 90-day Term SOFR which was 3.65% as of December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(i)</sup> Denotes that all or a portion of the contract was indexed to the 90-day Term CORRA, which was 2.26% as of December 31, 2025.

**Note 1. Organization**

Golub Capital Private Income Fund S ("GPIF S" or the "Company"), is a Delaware statutory trust formed on July 22, 2025. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that commenced operations on December 31, 2025, the effective date of the Company's election to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, beginning with its tax year ending September 30, 2026, the Company intends to elect to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company's fiscal year end is September 30.

The Company's investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in privately originated and privately negotiated investments, predominantly through direct lending to U.S. private companies in the middle-market in the form of one stop (a loan that combines characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured loans and second lien or subordinated loans and that are often referred to by other middle-market lenders as unitranche loans) and other senior secured loans. The Company could selectively invest in second lien and subordinated loans (including loans that rank senior only to a borrower's equity securities and ranks junior to all of such borrower's other indebtedness in priority of payment) of private companies. The Company also expects to invest in liquid credit instruments, including secured floating rate syndicated loans (e.g., broadly syndicated loans), securitized products and corporate bonds, and the Company's portfolio may, but will not necessarily, initially be comprised of a greater percentage of such instruments than it will as the Company's investment program matures, though the exact allocation could vary from time to time depending on market conditions and available investment opportunities. The Company's portfolio could also include other credit-related investments, including, without limitation, structured and synthetic debt investments and debt investments accompanied by equity securities, preferred equity and, to a limited extent, common equity investments not associated with a debt investment. The Company has entered into an investment advisory agreement dated December 5, 2025 (the "Investment Advisory Agreement") with GC Advisors, LLC (the "Investment Adviser"), under which the Investment Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company. Under an administration agreement dated December 5, 2025 (the "Administration Agreement") the Company is provided with certain services by an administrator, which is currently Golub Capital LLC (the "Administrator").

The Company offers its common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Shares"), in one or more private placement transactions exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2), Regulation D, and/or Regulation S (the "Offering"), including a private placement of Common Shares to certain qualified purchasers that closed prior to the commencement of the Offering (the "Initial Offering").

Prior to the Initial Offering, GCP-PIF Feeder S ("GPIF S Feeder"), a Delaware statutory trust and indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of GCP HS Fund, purchased 820,400 Common Shares at a price of $25.00 per share (the "Initial Capitalization"). The investment manager for GPIF S Feeder and GCP HS Fund is an affiliate of the Investment Adviser. Prior to the Initial Offering closing, the Board authorized the redemption of all of the Initial Capitalization Common Shares outstanding at a price of $25.00 per share effective December 31, 2025.

On December 31, 2025, the Company completed the Initial Offering and accepted subscription agreements for total commitments of $106,828 to purchase the Company's common shares. On December 31, 2025, the Company received the Initial Offering subscription proceeds and issued 4,273,117.120 Common Shares at a price of $25.00 per share (the "Initial Closing").

On December 29, 2025, prior to the Company's election to be regulated as a BDC, the Company entered into a share purchase and sale agreement to acquire its initial portfolio of investments by purchasing 100% of the beneficial interests of each of GPIF S Holdings, GPIF S Funding and PIF Holding Blocker S (the "Initial Assets") from GCP OS Cayman Trust, a Cayman Islands trust ("OS Cayman Trust") pursuant to a share purchase and sale agreement by and among the Company, OS Cayman Trust and the Investment Adviser (the "GPIF S Purchase Agreement"). On December 31, 2025, the Company commenced operations and invested proceeds from the Initial Closing to acquire the Initial Assets.

**Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Updates**

**Basis of presentation:** The Company is an investment company as defined in the accounting and reporting guidance under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 - *Financial Services - Investment Companies* ("ASC Topic 946").

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and related financial information have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") as established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") for the interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications consisting solely of normal accruals that are necessary for the fair presentation of financial results as of and for the periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

**Fair value of financial instruments:** The Company applies fair value to all of its financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820 - *Fair Value Measurement* ("ASC Topic 820"). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. The board of trustees of the Company (the "Board") designated the Investment Adviser as the Company's valuation designee ("Valuation Designee") in accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Valuation Designee is responsible for determining the fair value of the Company's portfolio investments, subject to oversight of the Board. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Valuation Designee has categorized the Company's financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant who holds the financial instrument rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, when market assumptions are not readily available, the Investment Adviser's own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of product, whether the product is new, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market and the current market conditions. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Valuation Designee in determining fair value is greatest for financial instruments classified as Level 3.

Any changes to the valuation methodology are reviewed by management and the Board to confirm that the changes are appropriate. As markets change, new products develop and the pricing for products becomes more or less transparent, the Valuation Designee will continue to refine its valuation methodologies. See further description of fair value methodology in Note 5.

**Use of estimates:** The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Consolidation:** As provided under Regulation S-X and ASC Topic 946, the Company will generally 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 results of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, GPIF S Holdings, ("Holdings"), GPIF S Funding ("Funding") and PIF Holding Blocker S in its consolidated financial statements.

**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)**

*(In thousands, except shares and per share data)*

**Cash, cash equivalents and foreign currencies:** Cash, cash equivalents and foreign currencies are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. The Company deposits its cash in financial institutions and, at times, such balances exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

**Restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents and restricted foreign currencies:** Restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents and restricted foreign currencies include amounts that are collected and are held by trustees who have been appointed as custodians of the assets securing certain of the Company's financing transactions. Restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents and restricted foreign currencies are held by the trustees for payment of interest expense and principal on the outstanding borrowings or reinvestment into new assets.

**Foreign currency translation:** The Company's books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars. Non-U.S. dollar transactions during the period are valued at the prevailing spot rates on the applicable transaction date and the related assets and liabilities are revalued at the prevailing spot rates as of period-end.

Net assets and fair values are presented based on the applicable foreign exchange rates and fluctuations arising from the translation of assets and liabilities are included within the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Foreign security and currency transactions involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies. 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.

**Revenue recognition:**

*Investments and related investment income:* Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual interest terms of debt investments.

Original issue discount, market discount or premium and certain loan origination or amendment fees that are deemed to be an adjustment to yield ("Loan Origination Fees") are capitalized and the Company accretes or amortizes such amounts over the life of the loan as interest income ("Discount Amortization").

For investments with contractual payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance that generally becomes due at maturity, the Company will not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not collectible.

In addition, the Company generates revenue in the form of amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees, administrative agent fees, and prepayment premiums on loans. The Company records these fees that are not deemed to be an adjustment to yield as fee income when earned.

Dividend income on equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. The Company has certain preferred equity securities in the portfolio that contain a PIK dividend provision that are accrued and recorded as income at the contractual rates, if deemed collectible. The accrued PIK and non-cash dividends are capitalized to the cost basis of the preferred equity security and are generally collected when redeemed by the issuer.

Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies. Each distribution received from limited liability company ("LLC") and limited partnership ("LP") investments is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, the Company will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs and LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and

*(In thousands, except shares and per share data)*

profits in the LLC or LP prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.

For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not recognize any dividend income received in cash and did not receive any return of capital distributions in cash.

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. The Company reports current period changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment transactions in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

*Non-accrual investments:* A loan can be left on accrual status while the Company is pursuing repayment of the loan. Management reviews all loans that become 90 days or more past due on principal and interest, or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected, for possible placement on non-accrual status. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed. Additionally, any capitalized Loan Origination Fees are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid, and, in management's judgment, payments are likely to remain current. There were no loans on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2025.

Management reviews all preferred equity securities accruing contractual PIK dividend income to determine if there is reasonable doubt that amortized cost or capitalized PIK and non-cash dividend income will be collected for possible placement on non-accrual status. When a preferred equity security is placed on non-accrual status, the contractual PIK dividend provision is no longer accrued to dividend income as of the date the preferred equity security is placed on non-accrual status. There were no preferred equity securities on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2025.

**Income taxes:** Beginning with its tax year ending September 30, 2026, the Company intends to elect to be treated, and intends to qualify annually thereafter, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and intends to operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. In order to qualify and be subject to taxation as a RIC, among other things, the Company will be required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to its shareholders of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code and determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid, for each tax year. Beginning with its tax year ending September 30, 2026, the Company intends to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders, which will generally relieve the Company from U.S. federal income taxes with respect to all income distributed to its shareholders.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company can determine to retain taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions and distribute such taxable income in the next tax year. The Company could then be required to incur a 4% excise tax on such income. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income, determined on a calendar year basis, could exceed estimated current calendar year dividend distributions, the Company accrues excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned.

The Company accounts for income taxes in conformity with ASC Topic 740 — *Income Taxes* ("ASC Topic 740"). ASC Topic 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC Topic 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense or tax benefit in the current year. It is the Company's policy to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in income tax expense. There were no material unrecognized tax benefits or unrecognized tax liabilities related to uncertain income tax positions through December 31, 2025.

*(In thousands, except shares and per share data)*

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 Statement of Operations. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not record any U.S. income tax.

**Dividends and distributions:** Dividends and distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the record date. Subject to the discretion of and as determined by the Board, the Company intends to authorize and declare ordinary cash distributions based on a formula approved by the Board on a quarterly basis. The amount to be paid out as a dividend or distribution is determined by the Board each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by management. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually, although the Company can retain such capital gains for investment in its discretion.

The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan ("DRIP") that provides for reinvestment of any distributions the Company declares in cash on behalf of its shareholders, unless a shareholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Board authorizes and the Company declares a cash distribution, then shareholders who have not "opted out" of the DRIP will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional Common Shares, rather than receiving the cash distribution. Shares issued under the DRIP will be issued at a price per share equal to the most recent net asset value ("NAV") per share for such shares at the time the distribution is payable.

**Deferred offering costs:** Costs associated with the offering of Common Shares will be capitalized as deferred offering expenses and amortized on a straight line basis. Deferred offering costs consist of fees paid in relation to legal, accounting, regulatory and printing work completed in preparation of equity offerings. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not recognize any amortization of deferred offering costs in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

**Segment reporting:** In accordance with ASC Topic 280 - *Segment Reporting* ("ASC Topic 280"), the Company has determined that it has a single operating and reporting segment. As a result, the Company's segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Company does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Company operates through a single operating and reporting segment with an investment objective to generate both current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. The chief operating decision maker (the "CODM") is comprised of the senior executive committee that, as of December 31, 2025, includes the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer and assesses the performance and makes operating decisions of the Company on a consolidated basis primarily based on the Company's net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations ("net income"). In addition to numerous other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes net income as a key metric in evaluating the Company's distribution policy. Performance metrics are provided to the CODM on a quarterly basis and are utilized to evaluate performance generated from segment net assets. As the Company's operations comprise of a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as "total assets" and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

**Recent accounting updates:** In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*. ASU No. 2023-09 requires additional disaggregated disclosures on the entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and additional details on income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40).* ASU No. 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchase of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion, within relevant income statement captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2024-03.

**Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions**

**Investment Advisory Agreement:** Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to the Company. The Investment Adviser is a registered investment adviser with the SEC. The Investment Adviser receives fees for providing services under the Investment Advisory Agreement consisting of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee. The management fee and incentive fee will begin to be charged for periods beginning after December 31, 2025.

base management fee is calculated at 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 quarter adjusted for share issuances and repurchases and is payable quarterly in arrears. For purposes of the Investment Advisory Agreement, net assets means the Company's assets less liabilities determined in accordance with GAAP. For the first calendar quarter in which the Company has operations, (i.e., the quarter ended March 31, 2026), net assets will be measured as the beginning total assets less liabilities as of the date on which the Company broke escrow for the Initial Offering. To the extent the Investment Adviser or an affiliate of the Investment Adviser provides investment advisory, collateral management or other similar services to a subsidiary of the Company, the Company's management fee will be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (a) the total fees paid to the Investment Adviser by such subsidiary for such services and (b) the percentage of such subsidiary's total equity that is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company.

*Incentive Fees*

The incentive fee consists of two components that are independent of each other, with the result that one component could 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) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income based incentive fee (the "Income Incentive Fee")*

The Income Incentive Fee 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 net assets at the end of the immediate preceding quarter, adjusted for share issuances and repurchases, 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 are received from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses accrued for the quarter (including the management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense or fees on any credit facilities or outstanding debt and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred shares, but excluding the incentive fee and any distribution or shareholder servicing fees).

*(In thousands, except shares and per share data)*

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns include, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that has not yet been 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. The impact of expense support payments and recoupments are also excluded from Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns.

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 immediate preceding quarter, is compared to a "hurdle rate" of return of 1.25% per quarter (5.0% annualized).

The Company pays the Investment Adviser quarterly in arrears an Income Incentive Fee 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 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 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). This portion of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.43% is referred to as the "catch-up" provision; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 12.5% of the dollar amount of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceed a rate of return of 1.43% (5.72% annualized). This reflects that once the hurdle rate is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 12.5% of all Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns thereafter are allocated to the Investment Adviser.

The sum of these calculations yields the Income Incentive Fee. This amount is appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter.

*(ii) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital gains based incentive fee (the "Capital Gain Incentive Fee")*

The second component of the incentive fee, the Capital Gain 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 each 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 Capital Gain Incentive Fee.

Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investments, foreign currencies, including gains and losses on borrowings in foreign currencies, derivative contracts and any income tax related to cumulative aggregate realized gains and losses.

Each year, the fee paid for the Capital Gain Incentive Fee is net of the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Incentive Fee for all prior periods. In accordance with GAAP, the Company accrues, but will not pay, a Capital Gains Incentive Fee with respect to aggregate unrealized capital appreciation on investments even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not included in calculating the Capital Gains Incentive Fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. There can be no assurance that any such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.

**Administration Agreement:** Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator furnishes the Company with office facilities and equipment, provides, or oversees the performance of, administrative and compliance services, including, but not limited to, maintaining financial records, overseeing the calculation of NAV, preparing reports to shareholders and reports filed with the SEC, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to shareholders, managing the payment of expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered by others. The Company reimburses the Administrator for costs and expenses including, but not limited to, those related to the allocable portion of the Administrator's overhead and other expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions and the Company's allocable portion of the cost of its chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. The Board reviews such expenses to determine that those expenses, including any allocation of expenses among the Company and other entities for which the Administrator provides similar services, are reasonable and comparable to administrative services charged by unaffiliated third-party asset managers. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator also provides, on the Company's behalf, managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance and will be paid an additional amount based on the cost of the services provided, which amount shall not exceed the amount the Company receives from such portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2025, the Company was not allocated shared services under the Administration Agreement.

Each of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement were approved by the Board, and both became effective on December 5, 2025 and will continue in effect for an initial term of two years. The Company may terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement or the Administration Agreement, without payment of any penalty, upon 60 days' written notice.

**Managing Dealer Agreement:** The Company has entered into a managing dealer agreement (as amended, the "Managing Dealer Agreement") with Arete Wealth Management, LLC (the "Managing Dealer"). Under the terms of the Managing Dealer Agreement, the Managing Dealer will manage relationships with third-party brokers engaged by the Managing Dealer to participate in the distribution of the Company's Common Shares (referred to as "participating brokers"), and financial advisors. The Managing Dealer will be entitled to receive shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 0.85% of the aggregate NAV attributable to the Company's common shares. The shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees will be payable to the Managing Dealer, but the Managing Dealer anticipates that all or a portion of the shareholder servicing fees and/or distribution fees will be retained by, or reallowed (paid) to, participating brokers. In addition, pursuant to the Managing Dealer Agreement, the Company will pay the Managing Dealer certain fees for its services as Managing Dealer, including a 1.75 basis point variable managing dealer fee that is payable quarterly in arrears on any new capital raised in the Offering. Such fees are borne indirectly by all shareholders of the Company. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not incur fees to the Managing Dealer.

The Managing Dealer is a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA").

The Managing Dealer Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by vote of a majority of the Company's trustees who are not "interested persons", as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Company and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Company's distribution and servicing plan or the Managing Dealer Agreement or by vote a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, on not more than 60 days' written notice to the Managing Dealer or the Investment Adviser. The Managing Dealer Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment, as defined in the 1940 Act.

**Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement:** The Company has entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement (the "Expense Support Agreement") with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser may elect to pay certain expenses on the Company's behalf (each, an "Expense Support Payment"), provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any of the Company's interest expense or distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees. Any Expense Support Payment that the Investment Adviser has committed to pay must be paid by the Investment Adviser to the Company in any combination of cash or other

immediately available funds no later than forty-five days after such commitment was made in writing, 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 shareholders 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 shall pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, to the Investment Adviser until such time as all Expense Support 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 shall be referred to herein as a "Reimbursement Payment". "Available Operating Funds" means the sum of the Company's (i) net investment income calculated in accordance with GAAP, (ii) net capital gains (including the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included under clauses (i) and (ii) above).

The Company's obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment shall 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.

The following table presents a summary of Expense Support Payments and the related Reimbursement Payments since the Company's commencement of operations.

---

As of December 31, 2025, the Investment Adviser made Expense Support Payments totaling $1,111. There were no Reimbursement Payments made to the Investment Adviser as of December 31, 2025.

**Other Related Party Transactions:** On September 26, 2025 and December 19, 2025, GPIF S Feeder purchased 400 Common Shares and 820,000 Common Shares, respectively, at a price of $25.00 per share. Prior to the Initial Closing, the Board authorized the redemption of the 820,400 Common Shares held by GPIF S Feeder at a price of $25.00 per share effective December 31, 2025.

On December 29, 2025, the Company entered into the GPIF S Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired all the assets and liabilities of Funding and Holdings, including PIF Holding Blocker S, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $74,637, the December 31, 2025 NAV of Funding and Holdings (the "Purchase Price"). The Company paid an initial cash payment in the amount of $61,000 on December 31, 2025. In addition the Company entered into a $13,637 short-term unsecured promissory note with OS Cayman Trust and the Investment Adviser that expires on March 15, 2026. The Investment Adviser, and not the Company, agreed to pay any interest payable under the promissory note with OS Cayman Trust.

The Administrator pays for certain unaffiliated third-party expenses incurred by the Company. Such expenses include postage, printing, office supplies, rating agency fees and professional fees. These expenses are not marked-up and represent the same amount the Company would have paid had the Company paid the expenses directly. These expenses are subsequently reimbursed in cash. There were no expenses reimbursed to the Administrator for the period ended December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, $2,131 which includes $1,111 of Expense Support Payments, of reimbursable expenses that were paid by the Administrator on behalf of the Company were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.

The Company is party to an unsecured revolving credit facility with the Investment Adviser (the "Adviser Revolver") which, as of December 31, 2025, permits the Company to borrow a maximum of $100,000 and expires on December 23, 2028. Refer to Note 6 for discussion of the Adviser Revolver.

**Note 5. Fair Value Measurements**

The Company follows ASC Topic 820 for measuring fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve some level of estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the assets or liabilities or market and the assets' or liabilities' complexity. The Board designated the Investment Adviser as the Company's Valuation Designee in accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Company's fair value analysis, currently undertaken by the Valuation Designee, includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Assets and liabilities are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

*Level 1:*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

*Level 2:*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

*Level 3:*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Inputs include significant unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the assets or liabilities. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information available and require significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset's or a liability's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Valuation Designee assesses the levels of assets and liabilities at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfers. There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities during the period ended December 31, 2025. The following section describes the valuation techniques used to measure different assets and liabilities at fair value and includes the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the assets and liabilities are categorized.

**Investments**

Level 1 investments are valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 investments are valued using market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data and quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee, based on input of the Valuation Designee's personnel and independent valuation firms that have been engaged by or at the direction of the Valuation Designee to assist in the valuation of each portfolio investment without a readily available market quotation at least every other quarter under a valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. This valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, with each portfolio investment being reviewed at least every other quarter (subject to a de minimis threshold) with approximately 50% (based on the fair value of the portfolio company investments) of the Company's valuations of debt and equity investments without readily available market quotations subject to review by an independent valuation firm. 100% of the investments included in the Initial Assets were subject to review by an independent valuation firm as of December 31, 2025. All investments as of December 31, 2025 were valued using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2025, all money market funds included in cash equivalents were valued using Level 1 inputs.

*(In thousands, except shares and per share data)*

When determining fair value of Level 3 portfolio investments, the Valuation Designee takes into account the following factors, where relevant: the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons to publicly-traded securities, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that affect the price at which similar investments are made and other relevant factors. The primary method for determining enterprise value uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio company's net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). A portfolio company's EBITDA can include pro-forma adjustments for items such as acquisitions, divestitures, or expense reductions. The enterprise value analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments and to determine if debt investments are credit impaired. The Valuation Designee may also employ other valuation multiples to determine enterprise value, such as revenues. If debt investments are credit impaired, the Valuation Designee will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value. The Valuation Designee may include evaluating multiple recovery scenarios and weighting the expected outcomes based on their likelihood when performing the enterprise value analysis. For debt investments that are not determined to be credit impaired, the Valuation Designee uses a market interest rate yield analysis to determine fair value.

In addition, for certain debt investments, the Valuation Designee bases its valuation on indicative bid and ask prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service or directly from brokers. Bid prices reflect the highest price that the Company and others could be willing to pay. Ask prices represent the lowest price that the Company and others could be willing to accept. The Valuation Designee generally uses the midpoint of the independent third-party market "bid" and "ask" quotes to determine the value of our portfolio investments but may use another value if the Valuation Designee determines it better represents the investment's fair value. While market price quotes from third-party pricing sources may be available, the Valuation Designee has the discretion to seek and utilize independent quotes from independent broker dealers to determine the fair value of the applicable portfolio investment. The Valuation Designee may obtain and consider both "bid" and "ask" quotes from either independent third-party vendors or directly from independent brokers.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments could differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and could differ materially from the values that are ultimately received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions or otherwise are less liquid than publicly-traded instruments. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company could realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded.

The Company's investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.

<sup>(1)</sup> Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the instruments.

<sup>(2)</sup> The Company valued $159,704 and $10,770 of one stop loans using EBITDA and revenue multiples, respectively.

<sup>(3)</sup> The Company valued $2,547 and $501 of equity investments using EBITDA and revenue multiples, respectively.

The above tables are not intended to be all-inclusive but rather to provide information on significant unobservable inputs and valuation techniques used by the Valuation Designee.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's debt and equity investments are EBITDA multiples, revenue multiples and market interest rates. The Valuation Designee uses EBITDA multiples and, to a lesser extent, revenue multiples on the Company's debt and equity investments to determine any credit gains or losses. Increases or decreases in either of these inputs in isolation would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. The Valuation Designee uses market interest rates for loans to determine if the effective yield on a loan is commensurate with the market yields for that type of loan. If a loan's effective yield was significantly less than the market yield for a similar loan with a similar credit profile, then the resulting fair value of the loan could have been lower.

**Other Financial Assets and Liabilities**

ASC Topic 820 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such value. As a result, with the exception of the line item titled "debt" which is reported at cost, all assets and liabilities approximate fair value on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition due to their short maturity. The fair value of the Company's remaining debt is estimated using Level 3 inputs by approximating the fair value based on acquisition or issuance cost, which the Company believes is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the recent issuance or acquisition of the debt.

**Note 6. Borrowings**

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, the Company is currently allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing. On December 31, 2025, the Company's sole shareholder approved the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements of Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act and declined the Company's offer to repurchase all of its outstanding Common Shares. As a result of such approval, effective as of the date of the Company's election to be regulated as a BDC on December 31, 2025, the Company's asset coverage requirement was reduced from 200% to 150%, or a ratio of total debt-to-equity of 2:1 as compared to a maximum of 1:1 under the 200% asset coverage requirement under the 1940 Act. As of December 31, 2025, the Company's asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 188.9%.

**BANA Credit Facility**: Effective December 31, 2025, the Company assumed, in connection with the GPIF S Purchase Agreement, Funding's revolving credit and security agreement (as amended and restated on December 31, 2025, the "BANA Credit Facility") with the Company, as servicer, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and sole lender, and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as collateral custodian. Under the BANA Credit Facility, the lenders have agreed to extend credit to Funding in an aggregate principal amount of up to $425,000 as of December 31, 2025. Funding may request drawdowns under the BANA Credit Facility through December 11, 2028 and the BANA Credit Facility will mature on December 11, 2031, the sixth anniversary of the closing date of the BANA Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the BANA Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the floating rate applicable to the currency of such borrowing (which, for U.S. dollar-denominated borrowings, is three-month term SOFR), plus an applicable margin, which is based on the composition of the portfolio and ranges from a floor of 1.70% per annum to 1.85% per annum. Additionally, Funding pays a commitment fee on the unused portion of commitments of (i) 0.25% per annum through April 11, 2026 and (ii) either 0.50% or 1.75% per annum, based on the amount of the unfunded commitments. A reduction fee may be payable in the event of any permanent reduction in commitments of the BANA Credit Facility.

The BANA Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets held by Funding. Funding has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities.

The borrowings of the Company, including under BANA Credit Facility, are subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the 1940 Act.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $105,871 of outstanding debt under the BANA Credit Facility.

For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not incur any interest expense on the BANA Credit Facility. The Company assumed $295 of interest payable as of December 31, 2025 in connection with the GPIF S Purchase Agreement, which is included in interest payable on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.

**Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies**

**Commitments:** As of December 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $26,305, including $13,343 of commitments on undrawn revolvers.

**Indemnifications**: In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. The Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as these involve future claims against the Company that have not occurred. The Company expects the risk of any future obligations under these indemnifications to be remote.

**Off-balance sheet risk:** Off-balance sheet risk refers to an unrecorded potential liability that may result in a future obligation or loss, even though it does not appear on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The Company may enter into derivative instruments that contain elements of off-balance sheet market and credit risk. As of December 31, 2025, there were no commitments outstanding for derivative contracts. Derivative instruments can be affected by market conditions, such as foreign currency volatility, which could impact the fair value of the derivative instruments. If market conditions move against the Company, it may not achieve the anticipated benefits of any derivative instruments and may realize a loss. The Company minimizes market risk through monitoring its investments and borrowings.

**Concentration of credit and counterparty risk:** Credit risk arises primarily from the potential inability of counterparties to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. The Company may engage in derivative

transactions with counterparties. In the event that the counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk.

The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparties or issuers of the instruments. The Company's maximum loss that it could incur related to counterparty risk on derivative instruments is the value of the collateral for that respective derivative instrument. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty.

**Legal proceedings**: In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to legal and regulatory proceedings that are generally incidental to its ongoing operations. While there can be no assurance of the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings, the Company does not believe any disposition will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**Note 9. Net Assets**

On September 26, 2025 and December 19, 2025, GPIF S Feeder purchased 400 Common Shares and 820,000 Common Shares, respectively, at a price of $25.00 per share. Prior to the Initial Closing, the Board authorized the redemption of the 820,400 Common Shares held by GPIF S Feeder at a price of $25.00 per share effective December 31, 2025.

On December 31, 2025, the Company completed the Initial Offering and accepted subscription agreements for total commitments of $106,828 to purchase the Company's common shares. On December 31, 2025, the Company received the Initial Offering subscription proceeds and issued 4,273,117.120 Common Shares at a price of $25.00 per share. In addition, concurrent with the Initial Closing, the Company issued 400 Common Shares at a price of $25.00 per share for proceeds totaling $10 in a private offering in connection with the issuance of the RF Notes.

*Distributions*

The Company's dividends and distributions are recorded on the record date. On October 16, 2025, the Board declared a distribution payable to shareholders of record on December 26, 2025 and payable on February 20, 2026 in an amount (if positive) such that the NAV of the Company as of December 31, 2025 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the net increase in net assets resulting from operations earned by the Company (if positive) as determined in accordance with GAAP for the period October 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025 and the payment of this distribution is $25.00 per share. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recorded distributions payable of $27 to GPIF S Feeder.

*Share Repurchase Program*

Beginning no later than the second full calendar quarter from the Initial Closing, and at the discretion of the Board, the Company will commence a share repurchase program in which the Company intends to repurchase, in each quarter, up to 5% of the NAV of the Company's Common Shares outstanding as of the close of the calendar quarter prior to the applicable valuation date. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program upon 30 days' notice, if it deems such action to be in the best interest of shareholders. 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, and the 1940 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, it is expected to repurchase shares pursuant to tender offers on or around the last business day of the first month of such quarter using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the prior quarter, except that shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be repurchased at 98% of such NAV (an "Early Repurchase Deduction"). The Early Repurchase Deduction will be retained by the Company for the benefit of remaining shareholders.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statistics and other data that have been obtained from or compiled from information made available by third-party service providers. We have not independently verified such statistics or data.

**Overview**

We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we intend to elect to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. As a business development company and a RIC, we are also subject to certain constraints, including limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and after our election to be treated as a RIC, limitations imposed by the Code. We were formed in July 2025 as a Delaware statutory trust. We commenced investment operations on December 31, 2025.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in one stop (a loan that combines characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured loans and second lien or subordinated loans and that are often referred to by other middle-market lenders as unitranche loans) and other senior secured loans of U.S. middle-market companies. We also selectively invest in second lien and subordinated loans of, and warrants and minority equity securities in U.S. middle-market companies. In addition, we expect to invest in liquid credit instruments, including secured floating rate syndicated loans (e.g., broadly syndicated loans), securitized products and corporate bonds though the exact allocation could vary from time to time depending on market conditions and available investment opportunities. Our portfolio may also include other credit-related investments, including, without limitation, structured and synthetic debt investments and debt investments accompanied by equity securities, preferred equity and, to a limited extent, common equity investments not associated with a debt investment. We intend to achieve our investment objective by (1) accessing the established loan origination channels developed by Golub Capital, a leading lender to U.S. middle-market companies with over $90.0 billion<sup>1</sup> in capital under management as of January 1, 2026, (2) selecting investments within our core middle-market company focus, (3) partnering with experienced private equity firms, or sponsors, in many cases with whom Golub Capital has invested alongside in the past, (4) implementing the disciplined underwriting standards of Golub Capital and (5) drawing upon the aggregate experience and resources of Golub Capital.

Our investment activities are managed by GC Advisors and supervised by the Board of which a majority of the members are independent of us, GC Advisors and its affiliates.

Under an investment advisory agreement, or the Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay GC Advisors an annual base management fee based on the value of our net assets as well as an incentive fee based on our investment performance. Under an administration agreement, or the Administration Agreement, we are provided with certain administrative services by an administrator, or the Administrator. Under the Administration Agreement, we have agreed to reimburse the Administrator for our costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, those related to the allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of our independent trustees) of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement.

<sup>1</sup> "Capital under management" is a gross measure of invested capital including leverage as of January 1, 2026.

------

We seek to invest at least 80% of our total assets (net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes) directly or indirectly in private credit investments (loans, bonds and other credit and related instruments that are issued in private offerings or issued by private companies). If we change our 80% test, we will provide shareholders with at least 60 days' notice of such change. We expect to make investments that typically will have position sizes under 1% of our portfolio, on average.

We expect to selectively invest more than 1% of our portfolio in some of our portfolio companies and generally expect that the size of our individual investments will vary proportionately with the size of our capital base, particularly during the period prior to raising sufficient capital, which may result in larger individual investments when and if our capital base increases. We may invest in companies of any size or capitalization.

We generally invest in instruments that have been rated below investment grade by independent rating agencies or that would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. These instruments, which are often referred to as "junk," have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal. In addition, many of our debt investments have floating interest rates that reset on a periodic basis and typically do not fully pay down principal prior to maturity, which could increase our risk of losing part or all of our investment.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

As of December 31, 2025, our portfolio at fair value was comprised of the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31, 2025** | **As of December 31, 2025** |
|<br>**Investment Type** | **Investments at Fair Value<br>(in thousands)** | **Percentage of Total Investments** |
| Senior secured | $4625 | 2.6% |
| One stop | 170474 | 95.4 |
| Second lien | 496 | 0.3 |
| Equity | 3048 | 1.7 |
| Total | $178643 | 100.0% |

---

One stop loans include loans to technology companies undergoing strong growth due to new services, increased adoption and/or entry into new markets. We refer to loans to these companies as recurring revenue loans. Other targeted characteristics of recurring revenue businesses include strong customer revenue retention rates, a diversified customer base and backing from growth equity or venture capital firms. In some cases, the borrower's high revenue growth is supported by a high level of discretionary spending. As part of the underwriting of such loans and consistent with industry practice, we adjust our characterization of the earnings of such borrowers for a reduction or elimination of such discretionary expenses, if appropriate. As of December 31, 2025, one stop loans included $10.8 million of recurring revenue loans at fair value.

As of December 31, 2025, we had debt and equity investments in 40 portfolio companies.

*Revenues*: We generate revenue in the form of interest and fee income on debt investments and capital gains and distributions, if any, on portfolio company investments that we originate or acquire. Our debt investments, whether in the form of senior secured, one stop, second lien or subordinated loans, typically have a term of three to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments fluctuates significantly from period to period. Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds of sales of securities. In some cases, our investments provide for deferred interest payments or PIK, interest. The principal amount of loans and any accrued but unpaid interest generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, administrative agent fees and consulting fees. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans as fee income. For additional details on revenues, see "*Critical Accounting Policies* - *Revenue Recognition*."

------

We recognize realized gains or losses on investments based on the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment or derivative instrument, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. We record current period changes in fair value of investments and derivative instruments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment transactions in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.

*Expenses:* Our primary operating expenses include the payment of fees to GC Advisors under the Investment Advisory Agreement and interest expense on our outstanding debt. We bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• organizational expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• calculating our NAV (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firm);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees and expenses incurred by GC Advisors and payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, in monitoring financial and legal affairs for us and in monitoring our investments and performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies or otherwise relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments, which fees and expenses include, among other items, due diligence reports, appraisal reports, any studies commissioned by GC Advisors and travel and lodging expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• interest payable on debt, if any, incurred by us to finance its investments and expenses related to unsuccessful portfolio acquisition efforts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• offerings of our Common Shares or other securities, including any public or private offering of our Common Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• investment advisory fees, including management fees and incentive fees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• administration fees and expenses payable under the Administration Agreement (including payments based upon our allocable portion of the Administrator's overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions and the allocable portion of the cost of our chief compliance officer, chief financial officer and their respective staffs);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments in portfolio companies, including costs associated with meeting financial sponsors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees payable to transaction/brokerage platforms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• subscription processing fees and expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reasonable bona fide due diligence expenses of participating broker-dealers supported by detailed and itemized invoices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees incurred by us for transfer agent, dividend agent and custodial fees and expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees and expenses payable under any managing dealer and selected dealer agreements, if any;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all costs of registration and listing of our securities on any securities exchange, if applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• U.S. federal and state registration and franchise fees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• U.S. federal, state and local taxes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• independent trustees' fees and expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs of preparing and filing reports or other documents required by the SEC, state securities regulators or other regulators;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to shareholders, including printing costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs associated with individual or group shareholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs of registration rights granted to certain investors;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs associated with compliance under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our allocable portion of any fidelity bond, trustees and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance, and any other insurance premiums;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing, mailing, long distance telephone, copying, secretarial and other staff, independent auditors and outside legal costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs and expenses, including travel, meals, accommodations, entertainment and other similar expenses, incurred by GC Advisors or its affiliates for meetings with existing investors and any intermediaries, registered investment advisors, financial and other advisors representing such existing investors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• proxy voting expenses; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all other expenses incurred by us or the Administrator in connection with administering our business.

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

We have entered into an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the "Expense Support Agreement") with GC Advisors. Under the Expense Support Agreement, GC Advisors may elect to pay certain expenses on our behalf (each, an "Expense Support Payment"), provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any of our interest expense or distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees. Refer to Note 3 of our consolidated financial statements for further details on the Expense Support Agreement.

Lastly, cash provided by financing activities was $141.7 million, primarily driven by proceeds from the issuance of common shares of $127.3 million and borrowings of debt of $14.3 million.

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents and foreign currencies of $68.5 million. In addition, we had restricted cash and restricted foreign currencies of $0.2 million as of December 31, 2025. Cash, cash equivalents and foreign currencies are available to fund new investments, pay operating expenses and pay distributions. Restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents and restricted foreign currencies can be used to pay principal and interest on borrowings and to fund new investments that meet the guidelines under our credit facilities, as applicable.

Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, the Investment Adviser has agreed to advance certain expenses along with any other expenses through the date on which the Company completes the Initial Offering (as defined in Note 1 of our Consolidated Financial Statements). We are obligated to reimburse the Investment Adviser for such advanced expenses upon completion of the Initial Offering.

On December 31, 2025, we completed the Initial Offering and accepted subscription agreements for total commitments of $106.8 million to purchase our common shares. On December 31, 2025, we received the Initial Offering subscription proceeds and issued 4,273,117.120 Common Shares at a price of $25.00 per share (the "Initial Closing"). In addition, concurrent with the Initial Closing, we issued 400 Common Shares at a price of $25.00 per share for proceeds totaling $10,000 in a private offering in connection with the issuance of the RF Notes (as defined in Note 6 of our Consolidated Financial Statements).

***Revolving Debt Facilities***

*BANA Credit Facility* - Effective December 31, 2025, we assumed, in connection with the GPIF S Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 1 of our Consolidated Financial Statements), the BANA Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6 of our Consolidated Financial Statements), which, as of December 31, 2025, allowed us to borrow up to $425.0 million at any time outstanding, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions. As of December 31, 2025, we had $105.9 million outstanding under the BANA Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2025, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions, we had approximately $319.1 million of remaining commitments and $2.1 million of availability on the BANA Credit Facility.

*Adviser Revolver -* On December 23, 2025, we entered into the Adviser Revolver (as defined in Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements) with GC Advisors. As of December 31, 2025, we were permitted to borrow up to $100.0 million at any one time outstanding under the Adviser Revolver. We entered into the Adviser Revolver in order to have the ability to borrow funds on a short-term basis and generally intend to repay borrowings under the Adviser Revolver within 30 to 45 days from which they are drawn. As of December 31, 2025, we had no amount outstanding under the Adviser Revolver.

***Promissory Notes - OS Cayman Trust***

Effective December 31, 2025, we entered into a $13.6 million OS Note with OS Cayman Trust and the Investment Adviser, that expires March 15, 2026.

***Promissory Notes - REIT Funding***

On December 31, 2025, concurrent with the Initial Closing, the Company issued and sold 400 promissory notes, each with a principal amount of $2,000 in a private offering (" RF Notes"). The RF Notes were issued in connection with the issuance of one Common Share to each accredited investor. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the RF Note totaled $0.8 million.

***Asset Coverage, Contractual Obligations, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Other Liquidity Considerations***

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are currently allowed to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing. On December 4, 2025, our sole shareholder approved the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements of Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act and declined an offer by us to repurchase all our outstanding Common Shares. As a result of such approval, effective as of the date of our BDC election on December 31, 2025, our asset coverage requirement was reduced from 200% to 150%, or a ratio of total debt-to-equity of 2:1 as compared to a maximum of 1:1 under the 200% asset coverage requirement under the 1940 Act. We currently intend to target a GAAP debt-to-equity ratio between 0.85x to 1.25x. As of December 31, 2025, our asset coverage for borrowed amounts and GAAP debt-to-equity ratio 188.9% and 1.12x, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, we had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $26.3 million, including $13.3 million of unfunded commitments on revolvers. There is no guarantee that these amounts will be funded to the borrowing party now or in the future. The unfunded commitments relate to loans with various maturity dates, but the entire amount was eligible for funding to the borrowers as of December 31, 2025, subject to the terms of each loan's respective credit agreement. A summary of maturity requirements for our principal borrowings as of December 31, 2025 is included in Note 6 of our consolidated financial statements. We did not have any other material contractual payment obligations as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, we believe that we had sufficient assets and liquidity to adequately cover future obligations under our unfunded commitments based on the cash balances that we maintain, availability under our BANA Credit Facility and Adviser Revolver, ongoing principal repayments on debt investment assets.

Although we expect to fund the growth of our investment portfolio through the net proceeds from future securities offerings and future borrowings, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, we cannot assure you that our efforts to raise capital will be successful. In addition, from time to time, we can amend, refinance, or enter into new leverage facilities and securitization financings, to the extent permitted by applicable law. In addition to capital not being available, it also could not be available on favorable terms. To the extent we are not able to raise capital on what we believe are favorable terms, we will focus on optimizing returns by investing capital generated from repayments into new investments we believe are attractive from a risk/reward perspective. Furthermore, to the extent we are not able to raise capital and are at or near our targeted leverage ratios, we could receive smaller allocations, if any, on new investment opportunities under GC Advisors' allocation policy.

**Portfolio Composition, Investment Activity and Yield**

As of December 31, 2025, we had investments in 40 portfolio companies, with a total fair value of $178.6 million.

The following table shows the principal, amortized cost and fair value of our portfolio of investments by asset class:

<sup>(1)</sup> As of December 31, 2025, $27.0 million of our loans at both amortized cost and fair value, included a feature permitting a portion of interest due on such loan to be PIK interest.

As of December 31, 2025, we had no loans or preferred equity investments on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of our debt investments as a percentage of the outstanding principal value was 99.9%.

The following table shows the weighted average rate, spread over the applicable base rate of floating rate and fees of investments acquired during the period ended December 31, 2025:

---

|:---|:---|
| | **Period ended December 31, 2025** |
| Weighted average rate of investments | 8.7% |
| Weighted average spread over the applicable base rate of floating rate investments | 5.0% |
| Weighted average market discount on investments acquired | 0.1% |

---

As of December 31, 2025, 99.3% of our debt portfolio at both fair value and at amortized cost had interest rate floors that limited the minimum applicable interest rates on such loans.

As of December 31, 2025, the portfolio median<sup>2</sup> earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for our portfolio companies was $145.2 million. The portfolio median EBITDA is based on the most recently reported trailing twelve-month EBITDA received from the portfolio company.

<sup>2</sup> The portfolio median EBITDA is based on our portfolio of debt investments and excludes (i) portfolio companies with negative or de minimis EBITDA, (ii) investments designated as recurring revenue loans and (iii) investments on non-accrual status.

------

As part of the monitoring process, GC Advisors regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our investments and rates each of them based on an internal system developed by Golub Capital and its affiliates. This system is not generally accepted in our industry or used by our competitors. It is based on the following categories, which we refer to as GC Advisors' internal performance ratings:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Internal Performance Ratings** | **Internal Performance Ratings** |
| **Rating** | **Definition** |
| **5** | Involves the least amount of risk in our portfolio. The borrower is performing above expectations, and the trends and risk factors are generally favorable. |
| **4** | Involves an acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of origination. The borrower is generally performing as expected, and the risk factors are neutral to favorable. |
| **3** | Involves a borrower performing below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk has increased somewhat since origination. The borrower could be out of compliance with debt covenants; however, loan payments are generally not past due. |
| **2** | Involves a borrower performing materially below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk has increased materially since origination. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments could be past due (but generally not more than 180 days past due). |
| **1** | Involves a borrower performing substantially below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk has substantially increased since origination. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Loans rated 1 are not anticipated to be repaid in full and we will reduce the fair market value of the loan to the amount we anticipate will be recovered. |

---

Our internal performance ratings do not constitute any rating of investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or represent or reflect any third-party assessment of any of our investments.

For any investment rated 1, 2 or 3, GC Advisors will increase its monitoring intensity and prepare regular updates for the investment committee, summarizing current operating results and material impending events and suggesting recommended actions.

GC Advisors monitors and, when appropriate, changes the internal performance ratings assigned to each investment in our portfolio. In connection with our valuation process, GC Advisors and our Board review these internal performance ratings on a quarterly basis.

**Distributions**

We intend to make periodic regular and special distributions to our shareholders as determined by our Board. As a result, our distribution rates and payment frequency may vary from time to time and are not guaranteed. There is no assurance we will pay distributions in any particular amount, if at all For additional details on distributions, see "Income taxes" in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of our distributions from time to time. In addition, the asset coverage requirements applicable to us as a business development company under the 1940 Act could limit our ability to make distributions. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, including the possible loss of our ability to be subject to taxation as a RIC. We cannot assure shareholders that they will receive any distributions.

Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations can differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences are permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified within capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. For example, permanent differences in classification result from the treatment of distributions paid from short-term gains as ordinary income dividends for tax purposes. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.

To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for any tax year, a portion of those distributions could be deemed a return of capital to our shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus, the source of a distribution to our shareholders could be the original capital invested by the shareholder rather than our income or gains. Shareholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a distribution payment carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our ordinary income or gains.

------

We have adopted an "opt out" dividend reinvestment plan for our common shareholders. As a result, if we declare a distribution, our shareholders' cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Common Shares unless a shareholder specifically "opts out" of our distribution reinvestment plan. If a shareholder opts out, that shareholder will receive cash distributions. Although distributions paid in the form of additional Common Shares will generally be subject to U.S. federal, state and local taxes in the same manner as cash distributions, shareholders participating in our distribution reinvestment plan will not receive any corresponding cash distributions with which to pay any such applicable taxes.

------

**Related Party Transactions**

We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with GC Advisors. Mr. David Golub, our chief executive officer, is a manager of GC Advisors and owns an indirect pecuniary interest in GC Advisors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Golub Capital LLC provides us with the office facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct day-to-day operations pursuant to our Administration Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have entered into a license agreement with Golub Capital LLC, pursuant to which Golub Capital LLC has granted us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name "Golub Capital."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Under a staffing agreement, or the Staffing Agreement, Golub Capital LLC has agreed to provide GC Advisors with the resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Staffing Agreement provides that Golub Capital LLC will make available to GC Advisors experienced investment professionals and provide access to the senior investment personnel of Golub Capital LLC for purposes of evaluating, negotiating, structuring, closing and monitoring our investments. The Staffing Agreement also includes a commitment that the members of GC Advisors' investment committee will serve in such capacity. Services under the Staffing Agreement are provided on a direct cost reimbursement basis. We are not a party to the Staffing Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We entered into the Expense Support Agreement (as defined in Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements) with the Investment Adviser, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser may elect to pay certain expenses on our behalf, provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or any of our distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On December 23, 2025, we entered into the Adviser Revolver with the Investment Adviser as the lender, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser has provided us with a $100.0 million unsecured, revolving line of credit for borrowings on a short-term basis to fulfill our working capital needs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** On September 26, 2025 and December 19, 2025, GCP-PIF Feeder S ("GPIF S Feeder"), a Delaware statutory trust and indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of GCP HS Fund purchased 400 Common Shares and 820,000 Common Shares, respectively, at a price of $25.00 per share. GPIF S Feeder and GCP HS Fund are managed by an affiliate of GC Advisors. The Board authorized the redemption of the 820,400 Common Shares held by GPIF S Feeder at a price of $25.00 per share effective December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On December 29, 2025, we entered into the share purchase and sale agreement, with GCP OS Cayman Trust, and the Investment Adviser, in which we acquired all of the assets and liabilities (the "Initial Assets") of GPIF S Funding ("Funding") and GPIF S Holdings ("Holdings") through the purchase from the Seller of 100% of the beneficial interests in Funding and Holdings. The Initial Assets consisted of loans to 40 borrowers, cash and other assets.

GC Advisors also sponsors or manages, and expects in the future to sponsor or manage, other investment funds, accounts or investment vehicles (together referred to as "accounts") that have investment mandates that are similar, in whole and in part, with ours. For example, GC Advisors presently serves as the investment adviser to Golub Capital BDC, Inc., or GBDC, a publicly-traded business development company (Nasdaq: GBDC), Golub Capital Direct Lending Corporation, or GDLC, Golub Capital Direct Lending Unlevered Corporation, or GDLCU, Golub Capital BDC 4, Inc., or GBDC 4, Golub Capital Private Credit Fund, or GCRED, and Golub Capital Private Credit Fund I, or GPIF I, all of which are business development companies that primarily focus on investing in one stop and other senior secured loans. In addition, our officers and directors serve in similar capacities for GBDC, GDLC, GDLCU, GBDC 4, GCRED and GPIF I. If GC Advisors and its affiliates determine that an investment is appropriate for us, GBDC, GDLC, GDLCU, GBDC 4, GCRED, GPIF I, and other accounts, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, and pursuant to GC Advisors' allocation policy, GC Advisors or its affiliates could determine that we should invest side-by-side with one or more other accounts.

------

We do not intend to make any investments if they are not permitted by applicable law and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff, or if they are inconsistent with GC Advisors' allocation procedures.

In addition, we have adopted a formal code of ethics that governs the conduct of our and GC Advisors' officers, directors and employees. Our officers and directors also remain subject to the duties imposed by both the 1940 Act and Delaware law.

------

**Critical Accounting Policies**

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following items as critical accounting policies. For further information on our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

**Fair Value Measurements**

We value investments for which market quotations are readily available at their market quotations. However, a readily available market value is not expected to exist for many of the investments in our portfolio, and we value these portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith.

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, as recently amended, our Board, as permitted, has designated GC Advisors as our valuation designee (the "Valuation Designee") to perform the determination of fair value of our investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or valued by a third-party pricing service, in accordance with our valuation policies and procedures, subject to the oversight of the Board.

Valuation methods include comparisons of the portfolio companies to peer companies that are public, determination of the enterprise value of a portfolio company, discounted cash flow analysis and a market interest rate approach. The factors that are taken into account in fair value pricing investments include: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables; applicable market yields and multiples; security covenants; call protection provisions; information rights; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company's ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows and the markets in which it does business; comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public; comparable merger and acquisition transactions; and the principal market and enterprise values. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Valuation Designee will consider the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate the private equity valuation. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments can differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and differ materially from values that are ultimately received or settled.

Our Valuation Designee is ultimately and solely responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair value of investments that are not publicly-traded, whose market prices are not readily available on a quarterly basis or any other situation where portfolio investments require a fair value determination.

With respect to investments that are not publicly-traded or whose market price is not otherwise (a) readily available or (b) provided via a third-party pricing service or other quote, our Valuation Designee undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of GC Advisors responsible for the valuation function. Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our senior management and GC Advisors. The Valuation Designee reviews these preliminary valuations. At least every other quarter, the valuation for each portfolio investment, subject to a de minimis threshold, is reviewed by an independent valuation firm. The Valuation Designee discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each portfolio investment in good faith.

Determination of fair values involves subjective judgments and estimates. Under current accounting standards, the notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our consolidated financial statements.

------

The Valuation Designee's fair value methodology is conducted in accordance with the fair value principles established by ASC Topic 820 for measuring fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve some level of estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the assets or liabilities or market and the assets' or liabilities' complexity. Our fair value analysis, currently undertaken by the Valuation Designee, includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Assets and liabilities are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

<u>Level 1</u>: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

<u>Level 2</u>: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

<u>Level 3</u>: Inputs include significant unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the assets or liabilities. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information available and could require significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value could fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset's or a liability's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and we consider factors specific to the asset or liability. The Valuation Designee assesses the levels of assets and liabilities at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfers. There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities during the period ended December 31, 2025. The following section describes the valuation techniques used by us to measure different assets and liabilities at fair value and includes the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the assets and liabilities are categorized.

**Valuation of Investments**

Level 1 investments are valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 investments are valued using market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data and quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 investments are valued at fair value based on unobservable inputs significant to their fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee, and may be based on input of the Valuation Designee's personnel (which may involve the use of a third-party pricing service or quote) and independent valuation firms that have been engaged by or at the direction of the Valuation Designee to assist in the valuation at least every other quarter of each non-de minimis portfolio investment in accordance with the Company's valuation policies, including for those that do not have a readily available market quotation or are not valued via a third-party pricing service or other quote. This valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, with each portfolio investment being reviewed at least every other quarter (subject to a de minimis threshold) with approximately 50% (based on the fair value of portfolio company investments) of our valuations of debt and equity investments without readily available market quotations subject to review by an independent valuation firm. 100% of the investments included in the Initial Assets were subject to review by an independent valuation firm as of December 31, 2025. All investments as of December 31, 2025 were valued using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2025, all money market funds included in cash equivalents were valued using Level 1 inputs.

------

When determining fair value of Level 3 portfolio investments, the Valuation Designee may take into account the following factors, where relevant: the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons to publicly-traded securities, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that could affect the price at which similar investments could be made and other relevant factors. The primary method for determining enterprise value uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio company's EBITDA. A portfolio company's EBITDA could include pro-forma adjustments for items such as acquisitions, divestitures, or expense reductions. The enterprise value analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments and to determine if debt investments are credit impaired. The Valuation Designee may also employ other valuation multiples to determine enterprise value, such as revenues. If debt investments are credit impaired, the Valuation Designee will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value. The Valuation Designee may include evaluating multiple recovery scenarios and weighting the expected outcomes based on their likelihood when performing the enterprise value analysis. For debt investments that are not determined to be credit impaired, the Valuation Designee uses a market interest rate yield analysis to determine fair value.

In addition, for certain debt investments, the Valuation Designee could base its valuation on indicative bid and ask prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service or directly from brokers. Bid prices reflect the highest price that we and others could be willing to pay. Ask prices represent the lowest price that we and others could be willing to accept. The Valuation Designee generally use the midpoint of the independent third-party market "bid" and "ask" quotes to determine the value of our portfolio investments. While market price quotes from third-party pricing sources may be available, the Valuation Designee has the discretion to seek and utilize independent quotes from independent broker dealers to determine the fair value of the applicable portfolio investment. The Valuation Designee may obtain and consider both "bid" and "ask" quotes from either independent third-party vendors or directly from independent brokers.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments could differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a market existed for such investments and could differ materially from the values that may ultimately be received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions or otherwise are less liquid than publicly-traded instruments. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded.

Our investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.

In connection with each sale of our Common Shares, we make a determination that we are not selling Common Shares at a price below the then-current net asset value per share of common shares at the time at which the sale is made or otherwise in violation of the 1940 Act. GC Advisors will consider the following factors, among others, in making such determination:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The net asset value of our Common Shares disclosed in the most recent periodic report filed with the SEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Its assessment of whether any change in the net asset value per share of our Common Shares has occurred (including through the realization of gains on the sale of portfolio securities) during the period beginning on the date of the most recently disclosed net asset value per share of our Common Shares and ending on the date on which the offering price for such month is determined; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The magnitude of the difference between the sale price of the shares of commons shares and management's assessment of any change in the net asset value per share of our Common Shares during the period discussed above.

------

**Other Financial Assets and Liabilities**

ASC Topic 820 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such value. As a result, with the exception of the line item titled "debt" which is reported at cost, all assets and liabilities approximate fair value on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition due to their short maturity.

**Revenue Recognition:**

Our revenue recognition policies are as follows:

*Investments and Related Investment Income*: Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual interest terms of debt investments. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment. For investments with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance that generally becomes due at maturity, we do not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not likely to be collectible. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, administrative agent fees, consulting fees and prepayment premiums on loans and record these fees as fee income when earned. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans as fee income. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as dividend income 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 securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Distributions received from limited liability company, or LLC, and limited partnership, or LP, investments are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, we will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs and LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits in the LLC or LP prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.

We account for investment transactions on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. We report changes in fair value of investments from the prior period that is measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment transactions in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.

*Non-accrual Investments:* Loans may be left on accrual status while we are pursuing repayment of the loan. Management reviews all loans that become past due 90 days or more on principal and interest or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected for possible placement on non-accrual status. We generally reverse accrued interest when a loan is placed on non-accrual. Additionally, any original issue discount and market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans could be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. We restore non-accrual loans to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in our management's judgment, are likely to remain current. As of December 31, 2025, we had no portfolio company investments on non-accrual status. We review all preferred equity securities accruing contractual PIK dividend income to determine if there is reasonable doubt that amortized cost or capitalized PIK and non-cash dividend income will be collected, for possible placement on non-accrual status. When a preferred equity security is placed on non-accrual status, the contractual PIK dividend provision is no longer accrued to dividend income as of the date the preferred equity security is placed on non-accrual status. There were no preferred equity securities on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2025.

**Income taxes:** We intend to elect to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and will operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. In order to be subject to tax as a RIC, we are required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements, as well as timely distribute to our shareholders dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code and determined without regard to any deduction for

------

dividends paid, for each tax year. We have made and intend to continue to make the requisite distributions to our shareholders, which will generally relieve us from U.S. federal income taxes.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may choose to retain taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions and would distribute such taxable income in the next tax year. We could then be required to incur a 4% excise tax on such income. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income, determined on a calendar year basis, could exceed estimated current calendar year dividend distributions, we accrue excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned. For the period ended December 31, 2025, we did not incur any U.S. federal excise tax.

Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified within capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. For example, permanent differences in classification may result from the treatment of distributions paid from short-term gains as ordinary income dividends for tax purposes. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.

------

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.**

We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk and changes in interest rates.

**Valuation Risk**. We will value investments for which market quotations are readily available at their market quotations. However, a readily available market value is not expected to exist for many of the investments in our portfolio, and we will value these portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Valuation Designee, subject to oversight by the Board in accordance with our valuation policy and process. There is no single standard for determining fair value. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the investments we hold. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments could fluctuate from period to period, if we were to sell or liquidate a portfolio investment, including, for example, in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it.

**Interest Rate Risk.** Many of the loans in our portfolio have floating interest rates, and we expect that our loans in the future could also have floating interest rates. These loans are usually based on floating SOFR or another base rate and typically have interest rate reset provisions that adjust applicable interest rates under such loans to current market rates on a daily, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The loans that are subject to floating SOFR or another base rate are also typically subject to a minimum base rate, or floor, that we charge on our loans if the current market rates are below the respective floors. As of December 31, 2025, the weighted average floor on loans subject to floating interest rates was 0.76%. The BANA Credit Facility has a floating rate applicable to the currency of such borrowing. The Adviser Revolver has a floating interest rate provision equal to the short-term Applicable Federal Rate. We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps, futures, options and forward contracts to the limited extent permitted under the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates. We expect that other credit facilities into which we enter in the future could have floating interest rate provisions.

Assuming that the unaudited interim Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2025 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter interest rate sensitivity as of such date, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates.

------

Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes as of December 31, 2025, it does not adjust for changes in the credit market, credit quality, the size and composition of the assets in our portfolio and other business developments, including borrowings under the Adviser Revolver or other borrowings, that could affect net increase in net assets resulting from operations, or net income. Accordingly, we can offer no assurances that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis above.

We could in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps, futures, options and forward contracts to the limited extent permitted under the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities could insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they could also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1**

**SHARE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT**

This **SHARE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT** (this "***Agreement***") is made and entered into on December 29, 2025, by and among Golub Capital Private Income Fund S, a Delaware statutory trust ("***Buyer***"), GCP OS Cayman Trust, a Cayman Islands trust (the "***Seller***"), and, with respect to <u>Sections 1.5</u> and <u>1.6</u> only, GC Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("***GC Advisors***" and, each of the aforementioned parties being referred to as a "***Party***", and jointly as the "***Parties***").

**RECITALS:**

**WHEREAS**, Seller is the legal and beneficial owner of 100% of the beneficial interests in (collectively, the "***Target Shares***") GPIF S Funding and GPIF S Holdings (each, together with their subsidiaries (as applicable), a "***Target***" and collectively, the "***Targets***");

**WHEREAS**, the assets listed on Schedule 1 hereto (the "***Transferring Assets***") include substantially all of the assets owned by the Targets;

**WHEREAS**, Seller desires to sell to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase from Seller, all of the Transferring Assets through the purchase of the Target Shares by Buyer from Seller on the terms and conditions set forth herein;

**WHEREAS**, the Board of Trustees of the Buyer (the "***Board***") has approved the transaction and determined, with respect to Buyer, that the transaction is in the best interests of Buyer;

**NOW, THEREFORE**, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, Seller and Buyer do hereby agree as follows:

**ARTICLE I**

**PURCHASE AND SALE**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1. **Purchase and Sale of Target Shares**. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Seller hereby sells, assigns, and transfers to Buyer, and Buyer hereby purchases from Seller, the Target Shares for a total purchase price equal to the Final NAV, as defined in and determined in accordance with <u>Section 1.5</u> of this Agreement. Seller hereby notifies GC Advisors, and GC Advisors hereby consents, to the transfer of the Target Shares for all purposes of the trust agreements of the Targets as in effect (the "***Targets Trust Agreements***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2. **Closing**. The closing under this Agreement with respect to the purchase and sale of the Target Shares (the "***Closing***") will take place simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement. At the Closing, Seller shall (i) execute a share transfer effecting the sale and transfer of the Target Shares to Buyer, (ii) cause the trust agreements of the Targets and the asset-backed credit facility documents of GPIF S Funding (as applicable) to be amended to, among other things, reflect the Buyer as owner of 100% of the beneficial interests of the Targets and (iii) assign to Buyer the Purchase and Sale Agreement by and between Seller and GPIF S Funding with respect to GPIF S Funding's asset-backed credit facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3. **Payment of Initial Purchase Price**. Buyer (i) shall pay Seller, in cash, $61 million, which represents approximately 90% of the Estimated NAV (as defined below) of the Targets as of December 31, 2025 (the "***Initial Cash Purchase Price***"), and (ii) deliver to Seller an unsecured promissory note (the "***Note***"), substantially in the form attached hereto as **Exhibit A**, pursuant to which Buyer promises to pay to Seller an amount equal to the Adjustment Amount (as defined below) (together with the Initial Cash Purchase Price, the "***Total Purchase Price***"), which shall be determined in accordance with <u>Section 1.4</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4. **Adjustment Amount**. The amount Buyer promises to pay to Seller pursuant to the Note (the "***Adjustment Amount***"), which may be a positive or negative number, will be an amount equal to (i) the Final NAV *minus* (ii) the Initial Cash Purchase Price. If the Adjustment Amount is positive, the Adjustment Amount shall be paid by wire transfer by Buyer to an account specified by Seller. If the Adjustment Amount is negative, no amount

------

will be due under the Note by Buyer and Seller agrees that an amount equal to the difference between the Initial Cash Purchase Price and the Final NAV, plus any interest payable in accordance with the terms of the Note, shall be paid by wire transfer by Seller to an account specified by Buyer. Within three (3) business days after the calculation of the Final NAV (or such other period of time agreed by the Parties), Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall make the wire transfer payment provided for in this <u>Section 1.4</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer and Seller acknowledge that the Seller is entitled to all of the Targets' earnings recognized in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, through December 31, 2025 and all of the Targets' taxable earnings through December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5. **Determination of Final NAV**. GC Advisors will determine (or cause to be determined) the estimated net asset value ("***Estimated NAV***") of the Targets as of December 31, 2025. As of the date of this Agreement, GC Advisors anticipates that it will determine (or cause to be determined) the final net asset value (the "***Final NAV***") of the Targets as of December 31, 2025, on or prior to January 31, 2026. The Final NAV shall be equal to the total assets less liabilities of the Targets, which amount will include, without limitation, (i) the aggregate fair market values of the Transferring Assets (which shall be determined by GC Advisors in accordance with the valuation procedures approved by the Board, and, in connection with such determination, GC Advisors will receive a report by one or more independent evaluators assessing the fair value of the Transferring Assets and/or evaluated prices provided by independent third-party pricing sources, as applicable), (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on each of the Transferring Assets, (iii) accrued and unpaid interest on liabilities of the Targets, including, without limitation, liabilities attributable to amounts owed to lenders and other financing providers, (iv) any capitalized or pre-paid fees and expenses and (v) cash held by the Targets. Each independent evaluator and/or independent third-party pricing source must be a person who has expertise in the valuation of securities and other financial assets and who is not an interested person, as defined in section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, of Seller or any affiliated person of Seller (other than Buyer).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6 **Interest Due on Note.** GC Advisors and Seller, but not Buyer, agree to pay any interest payable under the Note, if any, it being understood among the Parties that Buyer will have no obligation to pay any amount pursuant to this Agreement or the Note in excess of the Final NAV. The Buyer and GC Advisors agree to treat any interest paid by GC Advisors under the Note as a reduction of management fees received by GC Advisors from Buyer for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.7 **Final Sale**. Buyer and Seller intend and agree that (i) the transfer of the Target Shares by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement is, in each and every case, intended to be an absolute sale, conveyance and transfer of ownership of the applicable Target Shares rather than the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing and (ii) such Target Shares and the Transferring Assets shall not be part of Seller's estate in the event of a filing of a bankruptcy petition or other action by or against such person under any relevant bankruptcy law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.8 **Conditions Subsequent**. The occurrence of the Closing shall be subject to satisfaction of the following conditions (the "***Conditions Subsequent***") (as notified by or on behalf of each Party to the other 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;(a)Buyer shall have obtained such approvals as it deems (in Buyer's sole discretion) necessary in order for it to effect the transaction; 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;(b)Seller shall have obtained such customary internal approvals as it deems (in Seller's sole discretion) necessary in order for it to effect the sale of the Transferring 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;(c)Buyer has sufficient liquid assets and committed financing at the time of the Closing, not including, for the avoidance of doubt, subscription amounts held in escrow which are not yet the property of Buyer, to purchase the Transferring 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;(d)Buyer has determined, in consultation with counsel, that, upon closing, the transaction will have been consummated in accordance with applicable law; 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;(e)Buyer shall have executed and delivered to GC Advisors a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to GC Advisors by which Buyer agrees to be bound by the terms of the Targets Trust Agreements;

provided that, if at any time Buyer and Seller agree that the Conditions Subsequent provided for in this <u>Section 1.8</u> cannot be satisfied, this Agreement shall terminate and cease to be of any further effect.

**ARTICLE II**

**REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER**

Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1. **Power and Authority**. Seller (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (ii) has all requisite power and capacity to make, execute, deliver and perform this Agreement; and (iii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Seller has been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms except as the enforcement thereof may be limited only by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

and, in the case of any of the provisions of clauses (f) or (g) above, the case, order or decree, as applicable, continues to be pending, remains unstayed and in effect or is not dismissed, as applicable, for 60 days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Holder Event of Default</u>. A "Holder Event of Default" shall occur if the Holder defaults in the payment of the principal or interest of this Note when the same becomes due and payable, upon acceleration or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Acceleration</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;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If an Event of Default (other than, in respect of the Issuer, an Event of Default specified in <u>Section 5.1(f)</u>) occurs and is continuing, the non-defaulting Party may declare the unpaid principal of, and accrued interest on, this Note to be immediately due and payable.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If, in respect of the Issuer, an Event of Default specified in <u>Section 5.1(f)</u> occurs, all principal of and interest on the Note outstanding shall become and be immediately

------

and automatically due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, any notice of any kind, or other act on the part of the Holder, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Issuer.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The non-defaulting Party may, by written notice to the defaulting Party, rescind an acceleration and its consequences if (i) all existing Events of Default in respect of such defaulting Party, other than the nonpayment of principal of or interest on this Note which have become due solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived and (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Other Remedies</u>. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to a Party, the non-defaulting Party may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or interest on, the Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>No Waiver; Remedies</u>. A delay or omission by the non-defaulting Party in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default with respect to the defaulting Party shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence of any such Event of Default. No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Waiver of Past Defaults</u>. A non-defaulting Party may waive an existing Event of Default and its consequences with respect to the other Party. Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Note, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default with respect to such defaulting Party or impair any right consequent thereon.

**Exhibit 10.2**

**REVOLVING LOAN AGREEMENT**

Dated as of December 23, 2025

Golub Capital Private Income Fund S, a Delaware statutory trust (the "**Borrower**"), and GC Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "**Lender**")**,** agree as follows (with capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein having the meanings ascribed to them in <u>Section 17</u>):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.<u>Loans</u>. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Lender agrees to advance, from time to time during the period from the date hereof through the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, amounts in Dollars and Alternative Currencies to the Borrower (the "**Loans**"), the aggregate outstanding principal amount of which shall not exceed the Equivalent Dollar Amount of $100,000,000 (the "**Commitment**") at any time; provided that, the aggregate amount of Loans may exceed the Commitment if such excess is solely the result of a change in exchange rates which increases the Equivalent Dollar Amount of outstanding Loans. Within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, amounts of Loans that are repaid may be re-borrowed under this <u>Section 1</u>. Upon the fulfillment of the conditions specified in <u>Section 6</u>, each Loan shall be disbursed by the Lender on the requested date therefor, which date, for Loans in Alternative Currencies, shall be no sooner than two Business Days after the date on which the request is made by the Borrower, in Dollars or Alternative Currencies, as requested by Borrower, in funds immediately available to the Borrower in such manner as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.<u>Interest</u>. Interest on each Loan shall accrue from the date of such Loan until such Loan is repaid in full at a rate equal to the Applicable Federal Rate. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable in cash on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning on April 1, 2026, or, if earlier, on the date on which the outstanding principal amount of such Loan is repaid or prepaid in accordance with the terms hereof but no later than the Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.<u>Repayment</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>Repayment</u>. With respect to payments under this Agreement on account of all Loans payable to the Lender in its capacity as such, Borrower shall make each such payment in immediately available funds in Dollars or, in the case of a Loan made in an Alternative Currency, the Equivalent Dollar Amount, to an account designated in writing by the Lender to 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;(b)<u>Maturity</u>. The Borrower promises to repay the entire unpaid principal amount of all Loans and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Maturity 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;(c)<u>Voluntary Prepayment</u>. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, prepay, without premium or penalty, the Loans in whole or in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal prepaid. Each

------

prepayment of the Loans by the Borrower pursuant to this <u>Section 3(c)</u> shall be allocated first to accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans to the date of such prepayment and then to unpaid principal amounts outstanding under such Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.<u>Evidence of Indebtedness</u>. The Loans and the Borrower's obligation to repay the Loans in accordance with this Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement and the records of the Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.<u>Lender Acknowledgement</u>. The Lender acknowledges that any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Borrower is a legal entity separate from the Borrower and the assets of any such subsidiary are not intended to be available to satisfy any obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.<u>Conditions to Loans</u>. The obligation of the Lender to make each Loan is subject to the fulfillment of each of the following conditions, in form and substance satisfactory to the 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;(a)each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in each case as of the date each Loan is to be made hereunder, both with and without giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds thereof; 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;(b)the Lender shall have received such other documents and opinions, if any, as it shall have reasonably requested.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.<u>Representations and Warranties</u>. In order to induce the Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make each Loan hereunder, the Borrower represents and warrants 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;(a)the Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware;

&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)this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered and constitutes a legal**,** valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its respective terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally;

&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 execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and each borrowing of the Loans hereunder, does not and will not (i) require any governmental approval or other consent or approval, other than such approvals and consents that have been obtained and are in full force and effect, final and

------

not subject to review on appeal or to collateral attack, or (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in or require creation of any lien or encumbrance upon any assets of the Borrower under, any applicable law or any agreement, indenture, lease, license, instrument or other contractual restriction or any organizational document to which the Borrower is a party or by which the Borrower or any of its properties may be bound.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<u>Covenants</u>. From the date hereof until the date upon which the Commitment shall have terminated (whether as a result of the expiration of the period described in <u>Section 1</u> or pursuant to the last paragraph of <u>Section 9</u>) and the Loans and all other amounts payable or accrued hereunder (the "**Repayment Date**") shall have been paid in full, the Borrower shall:

(i) Preserve and maintain its legal existence and all of its other franchises, licenses, rights and privileges, (ii) comply with applicable law in all material respects, and (iii) take all action and obtain all consents and governmental approvals required so that its obligations hereunder will at all times be legal, valid and binding and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that the failure to take such action or obtain any such consent or approval could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Borrower; *provided, however*, that neither the Borrower nor any of its subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any right or franchise if the board of directors, trustees, manager or member, as applicable, of the Borrower or such subsidiary shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable for the conduct of the business of the Borrower or such subsidiary, as the case may be, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Borrower, such subsidiary or the 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;(b)<u>Information</u>. Upon the request from time to time of the Lender, the Borrower shall promptly furnish to the Lender such documents and information regarding this Agreement, the Loans, and the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition (including financial statements of the Borrower), results of operations or business prospects of the Borrower, as the Lender may request, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the 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;(a)any payment of principal of the Loans shall not be paid when and as due (whether at maturity, by reason of acceleration or otherwise) and in accordance with the terms 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;(b)any payment of interest on the Loans shall not be paid when and as due (whether at maturity, by reason of acceleration or otherwise) and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and such default is not cured within two 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;(c)the Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any other term, covenant or agreement contained herein, and such default shall continue without cure for a period of 30 days after receipt of written notice thereof from the Lender, or any representation or warranty contained herein or therein shall at any time prove to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made; 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;(d)a case or proceeding shall be commenced against the Borrower, and such case or proceeding is not dismissed or stayed within 60 days, or the Borrower shall commence a voluntary case, in either case seeking relief under any Bankruptcy Law, in each case as now or hereafter in effect, or the Borrower shall apply for, consent to, or fail to contest, the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, custodian, trustee or the like of the Borrower or for all or any part of its property, or the Borrower shall make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or the Borrower shall fail, or admit in writing its inability, to pay, or generally not be paying, its debts as they become due;

During the continuance of any Event of Default specified in clause (d) above, automatically and without any notice to the Borrower, the principal of, and accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be due and payable to the Lender and the Commitment shall terminate.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to agree to increase its Commitment, or to provide a Commitment, pursuant to this <u>Section 2.04(b)</u> and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of such 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;(ii)The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date for such increase pursuant to this Section (an "<u>Incremental Commitment Effective Date</u>") and, if applicable, the final allocation of such increase among the Persons providing such increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)In order to effect such increase, the Borrower, the applicable Incremental Lender(s) and the Administrative Agent (but no other Lenders or Persons) shall enter into one or more Joinder Agreements, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the applicable Incremental Lender(s) will provide the Incremental Commitment(s).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 the foregoing, the increase in the Commitments pursuant to this <u>Section 2.04(b)</u> shall not be effective with respect to any Incremental Lender unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Incremental Commitment Effective Date and after giving effect to such increase;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Incremental Commitment Effective Date and after giving effect to such increase, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Administrative Agent shall have received one or more Joinder Agreements contemplated above, providing for Incremental Commitments in the amount of such increase; 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;(D)the Administrative Agent shall have received such legal opinions and other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith.

As of such Incremental Commitment Effective Date, upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of the documents required by this clause (v), the Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in the applicable Joinder Agreement(s) in the Register and give prompt notice of the increase in the Commitments to the Borrower and the Lenders (including each Incremental 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;(vi)On each Incremental Commitment Effective Date, if there are Loans then outstanding, the Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid such Loans and borrowed Loans from the Incremental Lender(s), as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to such prepayments and borrowings, all Loans will be held ratably by the Lenders (including the Incremental Lender(s)) in accordance with their respective Commitments after giving effect to the applicable Incremental Commitment(s).

Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section 2.07<u>Fees</u>. (a) <u>Commitment Fee</u>. Subject to <u>Section 2.12(a)(iii)</u>, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee (a "<u>Commitment Fee</u>") in Dollars equal to for each day of the related Interest Period, the product of (i)(x) the actual daily Unused Amount times (y) the Commitment Fee Rate times (ii) 1/360. The commitment fee shall accrue from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the last day of the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date and shall be calculated on the Determination Date immediately preceding such Payment Date. For purposes of calculating the Unused Amount on each day of any Interest Period, the Dollar Equivalent of the Outstanding Amount of Loans in a currency other than Dollars shall be determined using the currency-Dollar spot rate determined by the Administrative Agent as set forth in clause (b)(i) of the definition of "Dollar Equivalent" on the Determination Date immediately preceding such day and the Administrative Agent shall promptly, after each Determination Date, notify the Servicer and the Borrower in writing of such Dollar Equivalent.

&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>Make-Whole Fee</u>. Subject to <u>Section 2.12(a)(iii)</u>, if the Aggregate Commitments are terminated in whole or in part pursuant to <u>Section 2.04(a)</u>, then Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a fee (a "<u>Make-Whole Fee</u>") equal to the amount in Dollars of the product of (i) the Aggregate Commitments (or terminated portion thereof) of non-Defaulting Lenders *multiplied by* (ii) the applicable Make-Whole Percentage; <u>provided</u> that no Make-Whole Fee shall be due and payable in the event of a termination (i) in connection with (A) the Relevant Rate being replaced with the Base Rate pursuant to <u>Section 3.03(b)</u> without the consent of the Borrower, (B) the suspension of any Lender's obligation to make, maintain or fund Loans the interest of which is determined by reference to a Relevant Rate pursuant to <u>Section 3.02</u>, (C) the Relevant Rate being suspended pursuant to <u>Section 3.03(a)</u> for greater than ten (10) Business Days without consent of the Borrower, (D) the inability of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to determine an alternative interest rate pursuant to <u>Section 3.03(b)</u> or <u>Section 3.03(c)</u> for greater than ten (10) Business Days, (E) the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 10.06</u>, (F) any Lender or Affected Person makes any claim for Increased Costs (to the extent of the Aggregate Commitments of such Lenders and/or the Lenders related to such Affected Persons) or (G) any material breach of this Agreement by the Administrative Agent, (ii) at any time when the Approval Rate is less than 70%, (iii) if Bank of America, N.A. and its Affiliates cease to collectively hold aggregate Commitments representing more than 50% of the Aggregate Commitments of all Lenders as a result of assignments without the consent of the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 11.06(b)(iii)(A)</u> or (iv) in connection with a Liquidity Event.

&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>Other Fees</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;(i)The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in any applicable Lender Fee Letter (collectively, the "<u>Lender Fees</u>"). Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and amounts owed and paid shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

Section 2.08<u>Computation of Interest and Fees</u>. All computations of interest and fees for Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies calculated by reference to an Alternative Currency Term Rate shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All computations of interest and fees for SOFR Loans, Base Rate Loans or Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies calculated by reference to an Alternative Currency Daily Rate shall be made on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, <u>provided</u> that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to <u>Section 2.10(a)</u>, bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.09<u>Evidence of Debt</u>. The Borrowings made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business in accordance with its usual practice. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Borrowings made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the written request of any Lender to the Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans to the Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

Section 2.10<u>Payments Generally; Administrative Agent's Clawback</u>. (a) <u>General</u>. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. All payments by the Borrower or the Collateral Custodian (on behalf of the Borrower) hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's Office in the applicable Eligible Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. may in each case be deemed received on the next following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee may continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; <u>provided</u> that this sentence shall not apply to payments made on the Maturity Date without giving effect to the proviso in the definition of such term.

------

&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)(i) <u>Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent</u>. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with <u>Section 2.02</u> (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by <u>Section 2.02</u>) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower (solely with respect to interest accrued thereon and only for so long as the applicable Lender is not Bank of America or an Affiliate thereof) severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on written demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the Relevant Rate applicable to such Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder, and any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent</u>. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. With respect to any payment that the Administrative Agent makes for the account of the Lenders hereunder as to which the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that any of the following applies (such payment referred to as the "<u>Rescindable Amount</u>"): (1) the Borrower has not in fact made such payment; (2) the Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by the Borrower (whether or not then owed); or (3) the Administrative Agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this <u>Section 2.10(b)</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;(b)<u>Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent</u>. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to the Borrower as

------

provided in the foregoing provisions of this <u>Article II</u>, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Borrowing set forth in <u>Article IV</u> are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, 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;(c)<u>Obligations of Lenders Several</u>. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to <u>Section 11.04(d)</u> are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under <u>Section 11.04(d)</u> on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make any Loan or to make its payment under <u>Section 11.04(d)</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;(d)<u>Funding Source</u>. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

Section 2.11<u>Sharing of Payments by Lenders</u>. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it resulting in such Lender's receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued and unpaid interest thereon greater than its *pro rata* share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, <u>provided</u> 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;(i)if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, 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;(ii)the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender or any non-*pro rata* payment in connection with the replacement of a Lender in accordance with <u>Section 11.13(b)</u>) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Borrower (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply); 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;(iii)notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not (x) be required to acknowledge or give effect to any sharing of payments by Lenders pursuant to this <u>Section 2.11</u> unless notice thereof is provided by the Administrative Agent, and (y) be liable, responsible or otherwise obligated to indemnify any Lender with respect to any dispute between two or more Lenders arising in connection with any sharing of payments by Lenders pursuant to this <u>Section 2.11</u> and shall not be required to make a payment or adjustment subject to such dispute until such dispute is resolved.

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing

------

arrangements may exercise against the Borrower's rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.12<u>Defaulting Lenders</u>. (a) <u>Adjustments</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable 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;(i)<u>Waivers and Amendments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)Notwithstanding any of the foregoing that would otherwise prohibit the sale of a Collateral Asset after the occurrence or during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, if the Borrower (or a Securitization Subsidiary) entered into an agreement to sell any such Collateral prior to the occurrence of such Default or an Event of Default, but such sale did not settle prior to the occurrence of such Default or an Event of Default, then the Borrower (or such Securitization Subsidiary) shall be permitted to consummate such sale notwithstanding the occurrence of such Default or an Event of Default; <u>provided</u> that the settlement for such sale shall occur within the customary settlement period for similar trades.

The Servicer shall give notice of such release to the Collateral Custodian (in the form of <u>Exhibit E-1</u>) (with a copy to the Administrative Agent).

Section 3.01<u>Taxes</u>. (a) <u>Payments Free of Taxes</u>. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Laws. If any Applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this <u>Section 3.01</u>) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction 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;(a)<u>Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties</u>.

The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable

------

under this <u>Section 3.01</u>) payable or paid by such Recipient 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. 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;(c)<u>Indemnification by the Lenders</u>. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (x) 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), (y) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of <u>Section 11.06(d)</u> relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this <u>clause (d)</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;(d)<u>Evidence of 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;(e)<u>Status of Lenders</u>. (i) Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the 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 Recipient, 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 Recipient 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 3.01(f)(ii)(A)</u>, <u>(B)</u> or <u>(D)</u>) shall not be required if in the Recipient's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

Solely for purposes of this <u>clause (D)</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;(ii)Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification 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;(f)<u>Treatment of Certain Refunds</u>.

Such indemnifying party, upon the written request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this <u>Section 3.01(g)</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 3.01(g)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>Section 3.01(g)</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 Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This <u>Section 3.01(g)</u> 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.

Each party's obligations under this <u>Section 3.01</u> shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the Payment in Full of the Obligations.

Section 3.02<u>Illegality</u>. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to a Relevant Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon a Relevant Rate or to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent), (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or maintain Alternative Currency Loans in the

------

affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, to make or maintain SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans shall be, in each case, suspended, and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the SOFR Component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the SOFR Component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay all SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans, as applicable, in the affected currency or currencies or, if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all SOFR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the SOFR Component of the Base Rate), in each case, immediately, or, in the case of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans to such day and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the SOFR Component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 3.05</u>.

Section 3.03<u>Inability to Determine Rates</u>. (a) If in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Loan or a conversion of Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans, as applicable, (i) the Administrative Agent determines, in its commercially reasonable judgment, that (A) no Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate for the applicable Eligible Currency has been determined in accordance with <u>Section 3.03(b)</u>, <u>Section 3.03(c)</u> or <u>Section 3.03(d)</u> and the circumstances under clause (i) of <u>Section 3.03(b)</u>, <u>Section 3.03(c)</u> or <u>Section 3.03(d)</u>, the Scheduled Unavailability Date, or the SOFR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate (as applicable), or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining the Relevant Rate for the applicable Eligible Currency for any determination date(s) or Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan or (ii) the Administrative Agent determines that for any reason that the Relevant Rate with respect to a proposed Loan denominated in an Eligible Currency for any requested Interest Period or determination date(s) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Required Lenders of funding such Loan and, in the case of both clause (i) and (ii) of this Section 3.03(a) the Administrative Agent has made a similar determination with respect to similarly situated borrowers (as compared to the Borrower) pursuant to transaction documents in materially similar credit or loan facilities (in the case of the Administrative Agent, within the credit asset financing group (or any successor group) of the Administrative Agent for which it serves as administrative agent), then the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender in writing.

Thereafter, unless a Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate for the applicable Eligible Currency has been determined in accordance with <u>Section 3.03(b)</u>, <u>Section 3.03(c)</u> or <u>Section 3.03(d)</u>, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans in the affected currencies or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended in each case to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Period or determination date(s), as applicable, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the

------

preceding sentence with respect to the SOFR Component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the SOFR Component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (ii) of this <u>Section 3.03(a)</u>, the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice, which revocation shall occur promptly upon the cessation of events giving rise to the conditions described above.

Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to SOFR Loans, or Borrowing of Alternative Currency Loans to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Period or determination date(s), as applicable or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein and (ii)(A) any outstanding SOFR Loans shall be deemed to have been converted to Base Rate Loans immediately and (B) any outstanding affected Alternative Currency Loans, at the Borrower's election, shall either (1) be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Alternative Currency Loan immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan or (2) be prepaid in full immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan; <u>provided</u> that if no election is made by the Borrower (x) in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, by the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of such notice or (y) in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, by the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.

&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>Replacement of SOFR or SOFR Successor Rate</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, determines, or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, 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;(i)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR, including, without limitation, because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and, in each case, such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; 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;(ii)the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which Term SOFR shall or will no longer be representative or made available or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of syndicated loans denominated in Dollars, or shall or will otherwise cease; <u>provided</u> that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that will continue to provide Term SOFR on a representative basis (the date on which Term SOFR is no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the "<u>SOFR Scheduled Unavailability Date</u>");

or if the events or circumstances of the type described in <u>Section 3.03(b)(i)</u> or <u>(ii)</u> have occurred with respect to any SOFR Successor Rate then in effect, then, (x) with respect to the replacement

------

of Term SOFR, on a date and time determined by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower (any such date, the "<u>Term SOFR Replacement Date</u>"), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period and, solely with respect to clause (ii) above, no later than the SOFR Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any Loan Document with Daily SOFR for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) otherwise (including if the Administrative Agent determines, in consultation with the Borrower, that Daily SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement and the other Loan Documents solely for the purpose of replacing SOFR for Dollars or any then current SOFR Successor Rate for Dollars in accordance with this <u>Section 3.03</u> with an alternative benchmark rate mutually agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in Dollars for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in Dollars for such benchmarks (any such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, a "<u>SOFR Successor Rate</u>"), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

If this <u>Section 3.03(b)</u> applies and the Borrower so requires, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than ten (10) Business Days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of 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;(b)<u>Replacement of Relevant Rate or Canadian Benchmark Replacement</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan 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;(i)<u>Replacing Canadian Benchmarks</u>. Upon the occurrence of a Canadian Benchmark Transition Event, the Canadian Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Canadian Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Canadian Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) Business Day after the date notice of such Canadian Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Canadian Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. At any time that the administrator of the then-current Canadian Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Canadian Benchmark or such Canadian Benchmark has been announced by the administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Canadian Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Canadian Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of, or conversion

------

to Loans denominated in CAD to be made or converted that would bear interest by reference to such Canadian Benchmark until the Borrower's receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Canadian Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Canadian Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Canadian Prime Rate Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement), if the then-current Canadian Benchmark is a term rate, then (i) the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, may remove any tenor of such Canadian Benchmark that is unavailable or, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, non-representative for Canadian Benchmark (including Canadian Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Canadian Benchmark (including Canadian Benchmark Replacement) settings.

&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>Replacement of Relevant Rate or Successor Rate</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, determines, or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, 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;(i)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Eligible Currency (other than Dollars) because none of the tenors of such Relevant Rate under this Agreement is available or published on a current basis, and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; 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;(ii)the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for an Eligible Currency (other than Dollars) under this Agreement shall or will no longer be representative or made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of syndicated loans denominated in such Eligible Currency (other than Dollars), or shall or will otherwise cease; <u>provided</u> that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that will continue to provide such representative tenor(s) of the Relevant Rate for such Eligible Currency (other than Dollars) (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for such Eligible Currency (other than Dollars) under this Agreement are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the "<u>Scheduled Unavailability Date</u>");

or if the events or circumstances of the type described in <u>Section 3.03(d)(i)</u> or <u>(ii)</u> have occurred with respect to any Alternative Currency Successor Rate then in effect, then, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Relevant Rate for an Eligible Currency or any then current Successor Rate for an Eligible Currency in accordance with this <u>Section 3.03</u> with an alternative benchmark rate mutually agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in such Eligible Currency for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in such Eligible Currency for such benchmarks (any

------

such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, a "<u>Alternative Currency Successor Rate</u>", and collectively with the SOFR Successor Rate and the Canadian Benchmark Replacement, each a "<u>Successor Rate</u>"), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

If this <u>Section 3.03(d)</u> applies and the Borrower so requires, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than ten (10) Business Days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of 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;(d)<u>Successor Rate</u>. The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Borrower and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.

Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; <u>provided</u> that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than 0%, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be 0% for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

In connection with the implementation and administration of a Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time, in each case, in consultation with the Borrower, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

Section 3.04<u>Increased Costs</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;(a)<u>Increased Costs Generally</u>. 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;(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any 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;(ii)subject any Recipient to any 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) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 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;(iii)impose on any Lender or any applicable interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement, SOFR Loans

------

made by such Lender or Alternative Currency Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon prompt written request (including delivery of a certificate of such Lender as described in clause (c) below) (such Lender, an "<u>Affected Person</u>"), the Borrower will pay to such Affected Person (unless the Borrower exercises its rights set forth in <u>Section 3.06</u> with respect to such Lender) on the next Payment Date in accordance with the priority of payments in <u>Section 2.13</u> such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person for additional costs incurred or reduction suffered as specified in a certificate delivered to the Borrower pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 3.04; <u>provided</u> that such certificate shall have been delivered no less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Determination Date immediately preceding such Payment 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;(b)<u>Capital Requirements</u>. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, upon the written request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender (unless the Borrower exercises its rights set forth in <u>Section 3.06</u> with respect to such Lender) such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender'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;(c)<u>Certificates for Reimbursement</u>. A certificate of a Lender delivered to the Borrower setting forth (i) in reasonable detail the basis for such demand and the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in <u>Section 3.04(a)</u> or <u>(b)</u> for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered and (ii) that such Lender is charging similar increased costs to similarly situated borrowers (and in the case of Bank of America, N.A. within its credit asset financing group (or any successor group)), along with the calculation thereof, shall be conclusive absent manifest error and shall certify as to compliance with <u>Section 3.04(d)</u> below. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the next Payment Date so long as such certificate is delivered no less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Determination Date immediately preceding such Payment 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;(d)<u>Delay in Requests</u>. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 3.04</u> shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation, <u>provided</u> that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 3.04</u> for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

------

Section 3.05<u>Compensation for Losses</u>. Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense actually incurred by it as a result of:

&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 payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise) on a day other than a Payment Date, or pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 2.04(a) or to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency or a Currency Asset Amount Shortfall; 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;(b)any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to borrow or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower unless such notice is rescinded in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 3.06<u>Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders</u>. (a) <u>Designation of a Different Lending Office</u>. Each Lender may make any Loan to the Borrower through any Lending Office, <u>provided</u> that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under <u>Section 3.04</u> or <u>Section 3.05</u>, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to <u>Section 3.01</u>, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to <u>Section 3.02</u>, then at the request of the Borrower such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to <u>Section 3.01</u>, <u>3.04</u> or <u>3.05</u>, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to <u>Section 3.02</u>, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or 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;(a)<u>Replacement of Lenders</u>. If any Lender requests compensation under <u>Section 3.04</u> or <u>Section 3.05</u>, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to <u>Section 3.02</u>, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender (including any Participant pursuant to <u>Section 11.06(d)</u> that makes such request) or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to <u>Section 3.01</u> and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with <u>Section 3.06(a)</u> that would eliminate the amounts payable under <u>Section 3.01</u>, <u>Section 3.04</u> or <u>Section 3.05</u> or eliminate the need for notice pursuant to <u>Section 3.02</u>, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with <u>Section 11.13</u>.

Section 3.07<u>Survival</u>. All obligations of the Borrower under this Article III shall survive the Payment in Full of the Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Loan Parties shall have no rights as third-party beneficiaries of any such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term "agent" herein or in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) 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 as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 10.02<u>Rights as a Lender</u>. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with a Loan Party or Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

------

Section 10.03<u>Exculpatory Provisions</u>. The Administrative Agent or the Arranger, as applicable, shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent or the Arranger, 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;(a)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

&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)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents or those rights and powers that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; 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;(c)shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, to any Lender, any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any of their Affiliates, that is communicated to, obtained or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent, Arranger or any of their Related Parties in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent 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;(d)shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in <u>Section 9.02</u> and <u>Section 11.01</u>) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by a Loan Party or 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;(f)shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions of this Agreement relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the

------

Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender.

Section 10.04<u>Reliance by Administrative Agent</u>. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) reasonably believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it in good faith to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Loan Party), independent accountants and other independent experts selected by it with due care, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 10.05<u>Delegation of Duties</u>. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent; <u>provided</u> that no such delegation shall affect the Administrative Agent's responsibility for performance of its duties and obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any non-Affiliated sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 10.06<u>Resignation of Administrative Agent</u>. (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, if no Event of Default exists or is continuing upon the prior written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and if an Event of Default exists and is continuing in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which at all times shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the "<u>Resignation Effective Date</u>"), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; <u>provided</u> that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective 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;(a)If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders and the Borrower may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the "<u>Removal Effective Date</u>"), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the Removal Effective 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;(b)With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in <u>Section 3.01(h)</u> and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and <u>Section 11.04</u> shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including (a) acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding any collateral security on behalf of any of the Lenders and (b) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

Section 10.07<u>Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders</u>. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger hereafter taken, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Borrower of any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent or the Arranger have disclosed material information in their (or their Related Parties') possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to

------

make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a structured lending facility and (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding structured loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Lender for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities.

Section 10.08<u>No Other Duties, Etc.</u> Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arranger shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

Section 10.09<u>Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding</u>. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to a Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&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 file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under <u>Section 11.04</u>) allowed in such judicial proceeding; 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;(b)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under <u>Section 11.04</u>.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to

------

authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar Laws in any other jurisdictions to which any Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any Applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (i) to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (<u>provided</u> that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in <u>clauses (a)</u> through <u>(f)</u> of <u>Section 11.01</u> of this Agreement), (iii) to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle *pro rata* by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a *pro rata* portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders *pro rata* and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

Section 10.10<u>Collateral Matters</u>. Without limiting the provisions of <u>Section 10.09</u>, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its 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;(a)to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate

------

Commitments and Payment in Full of the Obligations, (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to <u>Section 11.01</u>, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;

&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)to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted hereunder; 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;(c)to acknowledge that the Lien of the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document does not encumber a Collateral Asset that has been sold by a Loan Party for cash consideration if (i) such cash consideration has been delivered into the Collection Account, (ii) the transfer of such Collateral Asset has not been or cannot be completed and (iii) the applicable Loan Party has settled such sale as a participation or similar arrangement (including settlement as a participation pending transfer).

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this <u>Section 10.10</u>.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent's Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Section 10.11<u>Indemnification</u>. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by a Loan Party as required under the Loan Documents or the Servicer as required pursuant to <u>Article XI</u> hereunder), ratably according to the outstanding amounts of their Loans from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent or the affected Person in connection with any investigative, or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such affected Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such affected Person as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under the Loan Documents or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 10.12<u>Recovery of Erroneous Payments</u>. Without limitation of any other provision in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent makes a payment hereunder in error to any Lender, whether or not in respect of an Obligation due and owing by the Borrower at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event, each Lender receiving a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such Lender in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each Lender irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any "discharge for value" (under which a

------

creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another) or similar defense to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount. The Administrative Agent shall inform each Lender promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Lender comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.

The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against any Loan Party shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with <u>Section 9.02</u> for the benefit of all the Lenders; <u>provided</u> that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a)(i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or (ii) the Collateral Custodian from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Collateral Custodian) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with <u>Section 11.08</u> (subject to the terms of <u>Section 2.11</u>), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u> that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 9.02</u> and (ii) in

investigation or proceeding with respect to which such Indemnified Amounts are being claimed, regardless of whether such Indemnitee is a party; <u>provided</u> that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such Indemnified Amounts (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) result from a claim brought by a Loan Party against an Indemnitee for a breach of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if a Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) result from the performance or non-performance of the Collateral Assets or the collectability or uncollectability thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing but without limiting the provisions of <u>Section 3.01(c)</u>, this <u>Section 11.04(b)</u> shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Indemnitee hereby agrees to not seek payment from the Servicer with respect to any indemnification pursuant to this <u>Section 11.04(c)</u> prior to seeking payment from the Borrower; <u>provided</u> that any Indemnitee may seek payment from the Servicer with respect to such indemnification pursuant to this <u>Section 11.04(c)</u> if (x) the Borrower is insolvent or is the subject of any Insolvency Event, (y) such Indemnitee is stayed from such request to the Borrower under applicable bankruptcy laws or (z) the Borrower does not make such payment within five (5) Business Days of the Payment Date immediately succeeding receipt of written request by the Indemnitee in accordance with <u>Section 11.04(f)</u>.

------

(or any sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this <u>Section 11.04(d)</u> are subject to the provisions of <u>Section 2.10(d)</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;(f)<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; <u>provided</u> 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 penultimate sentence of <u>Section 11.04(b)</u> and the last sentence of <u>Section 11.04(c)</u>, as applicable), the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of the Action at its expense with counsel 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; <u>provided</u> 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 legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, 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; <u>provided</u> 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. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of the Action, the Indemnified Party shall have full control over the conduct of such defense; <u>provided</u> that the Indemnified Party and its counsel shall, as requested by the Indemnifying Party or its

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate *per annum* equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders under <u>clause (b)</u> of the preceding sentence shall survive the Payment in Full of the Obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 11.06(c)</u>, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and obligations of <u>Sections 3.01</u>, <u>3.04</u>, <u>3.05</u>, and <u>11.04</u> with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; <u>provided</u> that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon written request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this <u>Section 11.06(b)</u> shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with <u>Section 11.06(d)</u> and shall otherwise be deemed null and void.

&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>Register</u>. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of each

------

Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "<u>Register</u>"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

&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>Participations</u>. Any Lender may at any time, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or such participation is sold to an Affiliate of any Lender), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, sell participations to any Person (other than a Disqualified Lender or a Lender who is a Benefit Plan Investor) (each, a "<u>Participant</u>") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); <u>provided</u> that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under <u>Section 11.04(d)</u> without regard to the existence of any participation.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to <u>Section 11.01</u> that affects such Participant. Each Loan Party agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Section 3.04</u> and <u>Section 3.01</u> (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under <u>Section 3.01(f)</u> (it being understood that the documentation required under <u>Section 3.01(f)</u> shall be delivered to the Lender that sells the participation)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; <u>provided</u> that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of <u>Section 3.06(b)</u> as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under <u>Section 3.01 or Section 3.04</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. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits and obligations of <u>Section 11.08</u> as though it were a Lender; <u>provided</u> that such Participant agrees to be subject to <u>Section 2.11</u> as though it were a Lender and to <u>Section 11.07</u> as set forth therein. 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 Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "<u>Participant 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 or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the 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;(e)<u>Certain Pledges</u>. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; <u>provided</u> that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee 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;(f)<u>Status as Approved Lender</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, each Lender hereunder, and each Participant, must at all times be an Approved Lender. Accordingly:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Lender represents to the Borrower, (A) on the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement (whether by being a signatory hereto or by entering into an Assignment and Assumption) and (B) on each date on which it makes a Loan hereunder, that it is an Approved 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;(ii)each Lender agrees that it shall not assign, or grant any participations in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Person unless such Person is an Approved Lender; 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;(iii)the Borrower agrees that, to the extent it has the right to consent to any assignment or participation herein, it shall not consent to such assignment or participation hereunder unless it reasonably believes that the assignee or participant satisfies clause (i) of the definition of "Approved Lender" at the time of such assignment or participation and that such assignment or participation will not cause any Loan Party or the pool of Collateral to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; <u>provided</u> that, the Borrower shall not have any duty or obligation, or any liability with respect to, any determination as whether any such Lender is a Disqualified Lender.

Section 11.07<u>Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality</u>. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Participants, any Successor Servicer and the Collateral Custodian agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential, and the disclosing party shall be responsible for any breach by any such Affiliate or Related Party of the confidentiality provisions contained herein), (b) to the extent (i) required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made shall be informed of the confidential nature of such Information, or (ii) required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process with prior written notice to the Borrower;

------

<u>provided</u> that, with respect to any such disclosure under this clause (b), any such disclosure shall be limited to the portion of the Information as may be required by the applicable regulatory authority or Governmental Authority pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process, (y) the disclosing party shall use reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of such Information and, if requested by the Borrower, shall cooperate with the Borrower to obtain a protective order or other measures determined by the Borrower in seeking to resist or limit such disclosure of Information, (c) to any other party hereto, (d) to the extent required in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to a non-disclosure agreement in writing with the Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Borrower containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in or any prospective Lender of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any of the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (f) with the consent of the Borrower or (g) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, the Servicer or any of their respective representatives or agents that has not breached a confidentiality obligation to the Borrower, the Servicer or any of their Affiliates. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement but not the terms of this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no IC Memos (or any portion thereof or extract therefrom) shall be shared with any Lender or any other Person by the Administrative Agent. "<u>Information</u>" means all information received from a party to this Agreement, the terms and substance of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and any term sheet and all information with respect to the other parties, including all information regarding the Collateral Assets, the related obligors, the Borrower, the Servicer, the Borrower Parent and each Securitization Subsidiary (including any Affiliate of any of the foregoing) and their respective businesses obtained by any other party hereto (including, without limitation and for the avoidance of doubt, any information obtained by any party pursuant to <u>Section 6.10</u> or <u>Section 8.09</u>) in connection with the structuring, negotiation and execution of the transactions contemplated herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all prospective Lenders and participants shall be required to execute a non-disclosure agreement in a form and substance acceptable to the Borrower prior to the receipt of any Information.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information will include material non-public information concerning the Borrower, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) without limitation of any of the foregoing, it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)No Lender shall, without first obtaining the Borrower's express written consent: (x) use or permit the use of any Information for any purpose whatsoever except for the specific purposes of performing under this Agreement; (y) disclose or permit the disclosure of any Information to any person or entity other than as specified above; or (z) disclose any Information to any other client (except to the extent permitted above) or Affiliate of such Lender or any

------

Disqualified Institution. Each Lender shall be responsible for any breach of this <u>Section 11.07</u> by its Affiliates.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)The provisions of this <u>Section 11.07</u> shall survive the termination hereof in respect of the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Participant, any Successor Servicer and/or each of the Related Parties, for so long as such Person retains any Information after the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.08<u>Right of Setoff</u>. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Secured Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, 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 such Secured Party or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Secured Party or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Party or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Secured Party different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; <u>provided</u> that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.12</u> and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Secured Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Secured Party or its Affiliates may have. Each Secured Party agrees to notify in writing the Borrower and the Administrative 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.

Section 11.09<u>Interest Rate Limitation</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (the "<u>Maximum Rate</u>"). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law,

------

(a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 11.10<u>Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness</u>. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the final and entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties. Except as provided in <u>Section 4.01</u>, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (*e.g.*, "pdf" or "tiff") shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 11.11<u>Survival of Representations and Warranties</u>. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Payment in Full of the Obligations.

Section 11.12<u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 11.12</u>, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 11.13<u>Replacement of Lenders</u>. If the Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of <u>Section 3.06</u>, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, <u>Section 11.06</u>), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to <u>Sections 3.01</u> and <u>3.04</u>) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), <u>provided</u> 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;(b)such Lender (subject to <u>Section 2.12</u>) shall have received payment of an amount equal to the Outstanding Amount of its Loans, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, accrued and unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under <u>Section 3.05</u>, except in the case of any Defaulting Lender) from the assignee (to the extent of such Outstanding Amount and accrued and unpaid interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); <u>provided</u> that, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repay on a non-*pro rata* basis the Outstanding Amount of the Loans of such Lender; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any such non-*pro rata* payment may not occur so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

&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 any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under <u>Section 3.04</u> or payments required to be made pursuant to <u>Section 3.01</u>, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

&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)such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws; 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;(e)in the case of any such assignment and delegation by a Non-Consenting Lender, (i) such assignment and delegation shall be subject to the requirements of <u>Section 11.06(b)(iii)</u> and (ii) the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this <u>Section 11.13</u> may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; <u>provided</u> that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u> that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

Section 11.14<u>Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.</u> (a) <u>GOVERNING LAW</u>. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create

------

one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record ("<u>Electronic Copy</u>"), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person's business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is not under any obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by such Person pursuant to procedures approved by it; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian have agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such Electronic Signature reasonably believed in good faith to be given by or on behalf of a Loan Party, the Servicer and/or any Lender without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For the avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution and endorsement of writings and authentications when required under the UCC or other relevant electronic signatures law due to the character or intended character of such writings.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent's or the Collateral Custodian's reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means). The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any Communication (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution or signed using an Electronic Signature) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it in good faith to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

Each Loan Party, the Servicer and each Lender hereby waives (i) any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document, and (ii) waives any claim against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian, each Lender and each Related Party for any liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent's, the Collateral Custodian's and/or any Lender's reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures, including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of any Loan Party or the Servicer to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "<u>PATRIOT Act</u>"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party

------

and other information that will allow such Lender, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. Each Loan Party shall, promptly following a written request by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable "know your customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

Section 11.19<u>[Reserved]</u>.

Section 11.20<u>Non-Recourse Obligations; No Petition</u>. (a) Each of the Servicer and the Secured Parties covenants and agrees that the obligations of the Loan Parties under this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of the Loan Parties, payable solely from the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, and, following realization of the Collateral, any claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and all obligations of the Loan Parties shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 11.20(a)</u> shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Collateral for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by this Agreement until the Collateral has been realized, whereupon any outstanding indebtedness or obligation shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive.

&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 parties hereto (other than the Loan Parties) covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day (or, if longer, any applicable preference period and one day) after the Payment in Full of the Obligations, no party hereto shall institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Loan Party any bankruptcy, reorganization, examinership, arrangement, insolvency, winding up or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceedings under any federal, state or foreign 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;(b)The provisions of this <u>Section 11.20</u> are a material inducement for the Secured Parties to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and are an essential term hereof. The parties hereby agree that monetary damages are not adequate for a breach of the provisions of this <u>Section 11.20</u> and the Administrative Agent may seek and obtain specific performance of such provisions (including injunctive relief), including, without limitation, in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, winding up, insolvency, moratorium, examinership, winding up or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under United States federal or state bankruptcy laws, or any similar laws.

&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 provisions of this <u>Section 11.20</u> shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.21<u>Time of the Essence</u>. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.22<u>Judgment Currency</u>. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Loan Document in one currency (the "<u>Agreement Currency</u>") into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given (the "<u>Judgment Currency</u>"). On the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency (unless otherwise consented to by the Borrower). If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum

------

originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Loan Parties in the Agreement Currency, the Loan Parties agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Loan Parties (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under Applicable Law).

Section 11.23<u>Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs</u>. (a) To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "<u>QFC Credit Support</u>", and each such QFC, a "<u>Supported QFC</u>"), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "<u>U.S. Special Resolution Regimes</u>") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

To the extent the Servicer, as agent of the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, holds any Collateral, the Servicer shall do so in accordance with the Servicing Standard as such standard applies to servicers acting as custodial 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;(iii)take all other actions, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, in connection with maintaining custody of such Collateral Asset Files on behalf of the Administrative Agent.

In the event that the Collateral Custodian fails to produce any original promissory note delivered to it related to a Collateral Asset that was in its possession pursuant to <u>Section 6.20</u> within five (5) Business Days after required or requested by the Administrative Agent (so long as (x) the Collateral Custodian previously certified in writing to the Administrative Agent that it had received such original promissory note and (y) such original promissory note is not outstanding pursuant to a Request for Release and Receipt), the Collateral Custodian shall with respect to any missing original promissory note, promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent upon request a lost note affidavit which shall include customary indemnity language.

&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)In case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral Custodian may, prior to the occurrence of the Maturity Date or absent the continuance of an Event of Default, request instructions from the Servicer and may, after the occurrence of the Maturity Date or during the continuance of an Event of Default, request instructions from the Administrative Agent, and shall be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received instructions from the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. The Collateral Custodian 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 Custodian be liable for special, indirect, punitive 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;(h)In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Collateral Custodian, the Collateral Custodian may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any request, instruction, certificate, opinion or other document furnished to the Collateral Custodian, reasonably believed by the Collateral Custodian to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement; but in the case of a request, instruction, document, certificate, opinion or other document which by any provision hereof is specifically required to be furnished to the Collateral Custodian, the Collateral Custodian shall be under a duty to examine the same in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement to determine that they conform on their face to the form required by such provision. For avoidance of doubt, Collateral Custodian may rely conclusively on certificates of a Responsible Officer delivered by the Servicer. The Collateral Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within the discretion or powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it is governed hereunder, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby for such action, except to the extent that such inaccuracies or errors are caused by the Collateral Custodian's own bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence.

&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)Without limiting the generality of any terms of this <u>Section 12.14</u>, the Collateral Custodian shall have no liability for the acts or omissions of any Loan Party, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent or any other Person and shall have no liability for any failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any other Person to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Custodian, or otherwise on the part of any such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracy, delay or error in the performance or observance on the Collateral Custodian's part of any of its duties hereunder that is caused by or results from any such inaccurate, incomplete or untimely information received by it, or other failure on the part of any such other party to comply with the terms hereof, except in the case of the Collateral Custodian's own bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence.

&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)The Collateral Custodian shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any certificate, report or other document; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, if the form thereof is prescribed by this Agreement, the Collateral Custodian shall examine

------

the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements hereof. It is expressly acknowledged by the Borrower, the Servicer and the Administrative Agent that application and performance by the Collateral Custodian of its various duties hereunder (including, without limitation, recalculations to be performed in respect of the matters contemplated hereby) shall be based upon, and in reliance upon, data, information and notice provided to it by the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and/or any related bank agent, obligor or similar party with respect to the Collateral Asset, and the Collateral Custodian shall have no responsibility for the accuracy of any such information or data provided to it by such persons and shall be entitled to update its records (as it may deem necessary or appropriate). Nothing herein shall impose or imply any duty or obligation on the part of the Collateral Custodian to verify, investigate or audit any such information or data, or to determine or monitor on an independent basis whether any issuer of the Collateral is in default or in compliance with the underlying documents governing or securing such securities, from time to time.

&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)Neither the Collateral Custodian nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees will be liable to the Servicer, Borrower or any other Person, except by reason of acts or omissions by the Collateral Custodian constituting bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the Collateral Custodian's duties 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;(l)In no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for the selection by the Servicer, any Loan Party, or the Administrative Agent of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to timely provide investment instruction to the Collateral Custodian in connection with the investment of funds in or from any account set forth herein (in each case, except to the extent the Collateral Custodian is otherwise in breach of its express obligations hereunder).

Section 12.15<u>Collateral Custodian as Agent of Administrative Agent</u>. The Collateral Custodian agrees that, with respect to any Collateral Asset File at any time or times in its possession (or the possession of its clearing institution) or held in its name, the Collateral Custodian shall be the agent and custodian of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, for purposes of perfecting (to the extent not otherwise perfected) the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral and for the purpose of ensuring that such security interest is entitled to first priority status under the UCC.
