**FRANKLIN BSP PRIVATE CREDIT FUND**

***NOTICE OF QUARTERLY REPURCHASE OFFER***

**If you own shares through a broker and wish to sell your shares, contact your broker or financial professional.**

**<u>\*\*IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO SELL YOUR SHARES AT THIS TIME, PLEASE DISREGARD THIS NOTICE\*\*</u>**

June 2, 2025

Dear Franklin BSP Private Credit Fund Shareholder,

Thank you for your investment. The purpose of this Notice is to announce the quarterly repurchase offer for the Franklin BSP Private Credit Fund (the "Fund"). Quarterly repurchase offers provide shareholders with access to their assets and a degree of liquidity. You will receive a notice similar to this once per quarter. The Fund will offer to repurchase shares only during each regularly scheduled quarterly repurchase offer period.

The repurchase offer period will begin on **June 2, 2025** and end on **June 23, 2025**. If you own shares through a broker/dealer or advisor, please contact your financial professional.

With respect to purchases of $250,000 or more only, Class A shareholders who tender for repurchase Class A shares that have been held less than 365 days after purchase, as of the time of repurchase, will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% of the original purchase price. Shares acquired through the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan ("DRP"), reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions are not subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.

If you wish to tender shares, your financial professional will provide you with specific instructions. If you are unable to contact your financial professional and wish to tender shares you can alternatively complete the attached repurchase request form ("Repurchase Request Form").

**All Repurchase Request Forms must be completed in proper form and received by SS&C GIDS, Inc. (f/k/a DST Systems, Inc., the "Transfer Agent") by 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Monday, June 23, 2025, to be effective.**

For details of the offer, please refer to the attached Repurchase Offer document or you may call us at 1-833-260-3565.

Sincerely,

Franklin BSP Private Credit Fund

**The repurchase request deadline ("Repurchase Request Deadline") will be strictly observed. If you fail to submit your repurchase request in proper form to the Transfer Agent prior to the Repurchase Request Deadline, the Fund will not repurchase your shares or a portion thereof until a subsequent quarterly repurchase offer, at which time you must submit a new repurchase request for that offer. Shares would be subject to net asset value fluctuation during that time**.

**FRANKLIN BSP PRIVATE CREDIT FUND**

**REPURCHASE OFFER**

**1. The Offer**. Franklin BSP Private Credit Fund (the "Fund") is offering to repurchase, for cash, up to five percent (5%) of its issued and outstanding shares (Class A and Advisor Class) at a price equal to the net asset value ("NAV") as of the close of regular business hours on the New York Stock Exchange on the Repurchase Pricing Date (defined below). The purpose of this offer is to provide a level of liquidity to shareholders since no secondary market exists for these shares. This offer is not conditioned on the tender of any minimum number of shares. This offer is made subject to the terms and conditions made in this Repurchase Offer and the Fund's currently effective prospectus and statement of additional information.

**2. Net Asset Value**. The Fund's NAV on **May 27, 2025** of the Class A shares (FBPAX) was **$10.55** per share and of the Advisor Class shares (FBSPX) was **$10.57** per share. The NAV at which the Fund will repurchase shares will not be calculated until the Repurchase Pricing Date (defined below). The Fund's NAV can fluctuate. Therefore, the NAV on the Repurchase Pricing Date may be higher or lower than the NAV stated above or the date on which you return your Repurchase Request Form. The current NAV may be obtained by calling 1-833-260-3565 and asking for the most recent price or by visiting <u>http://www.franklintempleton.com</u>. The shares of the Fund are not traded on any organized market or securities exchange.

**3. Repurchase Request Deadline**. All Repurchase Request Forms must be received in proper form by 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on **June 23, 2025**.

**4. Repurchase Pricing Date**. The NAV used to calculate the repurchase price will be determined on **June 23, 2025** (the "Repurchase Pricing Date"). This may be higher or lower than the NAV on the date on which you return your Repurchase Request Form.

**5. Payment for Shares Repurchased**. The Fund expects to make payments for all shares repurchased between one and three business days after the Repurchase Pricing Date. In any event, the Fund will pay repurchase proceeds within seven (7) calendar days from the Repurchase Pricing Date. The Fund will not charge a repurchase fee.

**6. Increase in Number of Shares Repurchased**. If shareholders tender for repurchase more than five percent (5%) of the Fund's outstanding shares ("Repurchase Offer Amount"), the Fund may, but is not required to, repurchase an additional amount of shares not to exceed two percent (2%) of the outstanding shares of the Fund on the Repurchase Request Deadline. If the Fund determines not to repurchase more than the Repurchase Offer Amount, or if shareholders tender shares in an amount exceeding the Repurchase Offer Amount plus 2% of the outstanding shares on the Repurchase Request Deadline, the Fund will repurchase the shares on a pro rata basis. However, the Fund may accept all shares tendered for repurchase by shareholders who own less than one hundred (100) shares and who tender all of their shares, before prorating other amounts tendered.

**7. Withdrawal or Modification**. Tenders of shares may be withdrawn or modified at any time prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on **June 23, 2025**.

**8. Suspension or Postponement of Repurchase Offer**. The Fund may suspend or postpone this Repurchase Offer only by a vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the independent Trustees, and only in the following limited circumstances:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If
 the repurchase of shares would cause the Fund to lose its status as a regulated investment
 company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For
 any period during which the New York Stock Exchange or any other market in which the securities
 owned by the Fund are principally traded is closed, other than customary weekend and holiday
 closings, or during which such trading is restricted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For
 any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which it is not reasonably practicable
 for the Fund to dispose of securities it owns or to determine the Fund's NAV of each of the
 Fund's Class A and Advisor Class shares; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For
 any other periods that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission may permit by order for
 the protection of shareholders.

**9. Tax Consequences**. You should review the tax information in the Fund's prospectus and statement of additional information and consult with your tax adviser regarding any specific consequences, including potential state and local tax consequences, of participating in the repurchase. Generally, any tender of shares to the Fund would be treated as a taxable event and any gain or loss would be treated as a capital gain or loss, either short or long term, depending on the length of time the shares have been held by you.

**10. Contingent Deferred Sales Charge on Class A Shares.** Advisor Class shareholders are not subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. With respect to purchases of $250,000 or more only, Class A shareholders who tender for repurchase Class A shares that have been held less than 365 days after purchase, as of the time of repurchase, will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% of the original purchase price. The Fund or its designee may waive the imposition of the contingent deferred sales charge in the following shareholder situations: (1) shareholder death or (2) shareholder disability. Any such waiver does not imply that the contingent deferred sales charge will be waived at any time in the future or that the contingent deferred sales charge will be waived for any other shareholder. Shares acquired through the Fund's DRP, reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions are not subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.

**11. Documents in Proper Form**. All questions as to validity, form, eligibility (including time and receipt) and acceptance of tenders of shares will be determined by the Fund in its sole discretion. The determination by the Fund shall be final and binding. The Fund reserves the absolute right to reject any or all tenders of shares (even if such tenders are determined to be in good and proper form) and to refuse to accept for payment, purchase, or to pay for any shares if, in the opinion of Fund's counsel, accepting, purchasing or paying for such shares would be unlawful. The Fund also reserves the absolute right to waive any of the conditions of this offer or any defect in any tender of shares, whether generally or with respect to any particular shares or shareholders. The Fund's interpretations of the terms and conditions of this offer shall be final and binding. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of shares must be corrected within such times as the Fund shall, in its absolute discretion, decide. Tenders of shares will not be deemed to have been made until any defects or irregularities have been corrected or waived.

None of the Fund, Benefit Street Partners, LLC (the "Advisor"), SS&C GIDS, Inc. (the "Transfer Agent"), Franklin Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor") nor any other person or entity is or will be obligated to give notice of any defects or irregularities in tenders, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

None of the Fund, the Advisor nor the Distributor is or will be obligated to insure that your financial consultant, or any broker-dealer or any other third party through which your shares may be held or registered, submits to you this Repurchase Offer or submits your tender of shares to the Fund on your behalf.

Neither the Fund nor its Board of Trustees makes any recommendation to any shareholder as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering shares. Each shareholder must make an independent decision as to whether or not to tender shares and, if so, how many shares to tender.

No person has been authorized to make any recommendation on behalf of the Fund as to whether shareholders should tender shares pursuant to this offer. No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations in connection with this offer other than those contained herein or contained in the Fund's currently effective prospectus or statement of additional information. If given or made, such recommendation and such information and representation may not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Fund.
