                                         the Company with such other investment advisory, research and related services as the

                                         provide significant managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company
                                         is required to provide such assistance under the 1940 Act, including utilizing appropriate
                                         personnel of the Adviser to, among other things, monitor the operations of the Company’s

(c)            Power
and Authority. To facilitate the Adviser’s performance of these undertakings, but subject to the restrictions contained
herein, the Company hereby delegates to the Adviser (which power and authority may be delegated by the Adviser to one or more
Sub-Advisers), and the Adviser hereby accepts, the power and authority to act on behalf of the Company to effectuate investment
decisions for the Company, including the negotiation, execution and delivery of all documents relating to the Company’s
investments and the placing of orders for other purchase or sale transactions on behalf of the Company. In the event that the
Company determines to acquire debt or other financing (or to refinance existing debt or other financing), the Adviser shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for such financing on the Company’s behalf, subject to the oversight and approval
of the Board of Directors. If it is necessary for the Adviser to make investments on behalf of the Company through a special purpose
vehicle, the Adviser shall have authority to create, or arrange for the creation of, such special purpose vehicle and to make
investments through such special purpose vehicle in accordance with applicable law. The Company also grants to the Adviser power
and authority to engage in all activities and transactions (and anything incidental thereto) that the Adviser deems appropriate,
necessary or advisable to carry out its duties pursuant to this Agreement.

forth in each Sub-Advisory Agreement.

 

		(i)	The
                                         Adviser and not the Company shall be responsible for any compensation payable to any
                                         Sub-Adviser; provided, however, that the Adviser shall have the right to direct the Company

		(iii)	Any
                                         Sub-Adviser shall be subject to the same fiduciary duties as are imposed on the Adviser
                                         pursuant to this Agreement, the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, as well as other applicable
                                         federal and state law.

 

(f)            Independent
Contractor Status. The Adviser shall, for all purposes herein provided, be deemed to be an independent contractor and, except

be deemed an agent of the Company.

		3.	Compensation
                                         of the Adviser.

 

The
Company agrees to pay, and the Adviser agrees to accept, as compensation for the services provided by the Adviser hereunder, a
management fee (“Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (“Incentive Fee”) as hereinafter
set forth. Any of the fees payable to the Adviser under this Agreement for any partial month or calendar quarter shall be appropriately
prorated. The fees payable to the Adviser as set forth in this Agreement shall be calculated using a detailed calculation policy
and procedures approved by the Adviser and the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Company’s directors who are
not parties to this Agreement or “interested persons” (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act)
of any such party (“Independent Directors”), and shall be consistent with the calculation of such fees as set
forth in this Section.

 

(a)           Management
Fee. The Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.5% of the Company’s average gross assets, is payable monthly
in arrears and is calculated based on the simple average value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of the two most
recently completed calendar months. The determination of gross assets will reflect changes in the fair market value of portfolio
investments reflecting both realized and unrealized capital appreciation. For purposes of computing the Management Fee, cash and
cash equivalents are excluded from the definition of gross assets.

 

(b)           Incentive
Fee. The Incentive Fee is divided into two parts: (1) a subordinated incentive fee on income and (2) an incentive
fee on capital gains.

 

		(i)	The
                                         subordinated incentive fee on income is earned on pre-incentive fee net investment income
                                         and shall be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar quarter
                                         during which this Agreement is in effect. In the case of a liquidation or if this Agreement
                                         is terminated, the fee will also become payable as of the effective date of the event.
                                         For purposes of calculating the subordinated incentive fee on income, (A) “pre-incentive
                                         fee net investment income” is defined as interest income, dividend income and
                                         any other income accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the
                                         quarter, including the Management Fee, expenses payable under any Administrative Services
                                         Agreements, any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred
                                         stock, but excluding (x)  incentive fees and (y) any realized capital gains,
                                         realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation, (B) “cumulative
                                         net increase in net assets resulting from operations” is defined as the sum
                                         of the pre-incentive fee net investment income, management fees payable with respect
                                         to the periods prior to November 14, 2017, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation
                                         and depreciation, and (C) “look-back period” is defined as the
                                         most recently completed quarter and the eleven (11) preceding calendar quarters. The
                                         subordinated incentive fee on income for each quarter will be calculated as follows:

 

		–	no
                                         subordinated incentive fee on income will be payable in any calendar quarter in which
                                         the pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the preferred return rate
                                         to shareholders of 1.75% (7.00% annualized) (the “preferred return”)
                                         of average net assets;

 

    5 

     

    

 

		–	100%
                                         of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the preferred return,
                                         but is less than or equal to 2.1875% in any quarter (8.75% annualized), will be payable
                                         to the Adviser (the “catch up provision”), which is intended to provide
                                         the Adviser with an incentive fee of 20% on all of the pre-incentive fee net investment
                                         income when the pre-incentive fee net investment income reaches 2.1875% in any quarter
                                         (8.75% annualized) of average net assets; and

 

		–	for
                                         any quarter in which pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% (8.75% annualized)
                                         of average net assets, the subordinated incentive fee on income shall equal 20% of pre-incentive
                                         fee net investment income;

 

provided
that the subordinated incentive fee on income for the current quarter will not exceed (A) the sum for each calendar quarter of
the look-back period of (a) (x) 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations for such quarter
less (y) the subordinated incentive fee on income paid or accrued by the Company for such quarter (in the case of (y) only, not
including for the current quarter for which the subordinated incentive fee on income is being calculated), divided by (b) the
weighted average number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding during such calendar quarter, multiplied by (B) the
weighted average number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding during the calendar quarter for which the subordinated
incentive fee on income is being calculated.

 

		(ii)	The
                                         incentive fee on capital gains will be earned on liquidated investments and shall be
                                         determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year during which this
                                         Agreement is in effect. In the case of a liquidation, or if this Agreement is terminated,
                                         the fee will also become payable as of the effective date of such event. The fee is equal
                                         to 20% of realized capital gains, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive
                                         fees on such capital gains. The incentive fee on capital gains is equal to realized capital
                                         gains on a cumulative basis from inception, computed net of all realized capital losses
                                         and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis.

 

(c)            Waiver
or Deferral of Fees.

 

The
Adviser shall have the right to elect to waive or defer all or a portion of the Management Fee and/or Incentive Fee that would
otherwise be paid to it. Prior to the payment of any fee to the Adviser, the Company shall obtain written instructions from the
Adviser with respect to any waiver or deferral of any portion of such fees. Any portion of a deferred fee payable to the Adviser
and not paid over to the Adviser with respect to any month, calendar quarter or year shall be deferred without interest and may
be paid over in any such other month prior to the termination of this Agreement, as the Adviser may determine upon written notice
to the Company.

The
Adviser is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act on the effective date of this Agreement as set forth in
Section 10, and shall maintain such registration until the expiration or termination of this Agreement. The Adviser agrees
that its activities shall at all times comply in all material respects with all applicable federal and state laws governing its
operations and investments. The Adviser agrees to observe and comply with applicable provisions of the code of ethics adopted
by the Company pursuant to Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act, as such code of ethics may be amended from time to time.

 

		5.	Brokerage
                                         Commissions.

 

The
Adviser is hereby authorized, to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law, to cause the Company to pay a member of
a national securities exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the
amount of commission another member of such exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the
Adviser determines in good faith, taking into account factors, including price (including the applicable brokerage commission
or dealer spread), size of order, difficulty of execution, and operational facilities of the firm and the firm’s risk and
skill in positioning blocks of securities, that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage
and/or research services provided by such member, broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or its
overall responsibilities with respect to the Company’s portfolio, and is consistent with the Adviser’s duty to seek
the best execution on behalf of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with regard to transactions with or for the benefit
of the Company, the Adviser may not pay any commission or receive any rebates or give-ups, nor participate in any business arrangements
which would circumvent this restriction.

 

		6.	Other
                                         Activities of the Adviser.

 

The
services of the Adviser to the Company are not exclusive, and the Adviser may engage in any other business or render similar or
different services to others including the direct or indirect sponsorship or management of other investment-based accounts or
commingled pools of capital, however structured, having investment objectives similar to or different from those of the Company,
and nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right of any officer, director, shareholder (and their shareholders
or members, including the owners of their shareholders or members), officer or employee of the Adviser to engage in any other
business or to devote his or her time and attention in part to any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature,
or to receive any fees or compensation in connection therewith (including fees for serving as a director of, or providing consulting
services to, one or more of the Company’s portfolio companies, subject to applicable law). The Adviser assumes no responsibility
under this Agreement other than to render the services set forth herein.

 

    7 

     

    

 

During
the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year following any termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement for any reason,
the Company shall not, directly or indirectly on behalf of itself or any other person or entity: (a) solicit the employment of
or employ any partners, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, consultants and/or associated persons (each, an “Associate”)
of the Adviser, any Sub-Adviser or any of their respective Affiliates (collectively, “Adviser Persons”) or
any person or entity who was an Associate of an Adviser Person during the one-year period preceding such proposed solicitation
or employment, or (b) induce, persuade or attempt to induce or persuade the discontinuation of, or in any way interfere or attempt
to interfere with, the relationship between an Adviser Person and any Associate of such Adviser Person or any person or entity
who was an Associate of such Adviser Person during the one-year period preceding such proposed inducement, persuasion or interference
or attempted inducement, persuasion or interference. The parties intend that any provision of this Section 6 held invalid, illegal
or unenforceable only in part or degree because of the duration or geographic scope thereof shall remain in full force to the
extent not held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

 

For
purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” or “Affiliated” or any derivation thereof means
with respect to any individual, corporation, partnership, trust, joint venture, limited liability company or other entity or association
(“Person”): (a) any Person directly or indirectly owning, controlling, or holding, with the power to vote,
10% or more of the outstanding voting securities of such other Person; (b) any Person 10% or more of whose outstanding voting
securities are directly or indirectly owned, controlled or held, with the power to vote, by such other Person; (c) any Person
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with such other Person; (d) any executive officer, director,

		7.	Responsibility
                                         of Dual Directors, Officers and/or Employees.

 

If
any person who is a director, officer, shareholder or employee of the Adviser is or becomes a director, officer, shareholder and/or
employee of the Company and acts as such in any business of the Company, then such director, officer, shareholder and/or employee
of the Adviser shall be deemed to be acting in such capacity solely for the Company, and not as a director, officer, shareholder
or employee of the Adviser or under the control or direction of the Adviser, even if paid by the Adviser.

 

		8.	Indemnification.

 

(a)           Indemnification.
Subject to Section 9, the Adviser, any Sub-Adviser, each of their directors, officers, shareholders or members (and their shareholders
or members, including the owners of their shareholders or members), agents, employees, controlling persons (as determined under
the 1940 Act (“Controlling Persons”)) and any other person or entity Affiliated with, or acting on behalf of,
the Adviser or Sub-Adviser (each an “Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”)
shall not be liable to the Company for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any such Indemnified Party in connection with
the performance of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Company
(except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the 1940 Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with
respect to the receipt of compensation for services), and the Company shall indemnify, defend and protect the Indemnified Parties
(each of whom shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof) and hold them harmless from and against all losses, damages, liabilities,
costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) (“Losses”)
incurred by the Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other
proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Company or its security holders) arising out of or otherwise
based upon the performance of any of the Indemnified Parties’ duties or obligations under this Agreement, any Sub-Advisory
Agreement, or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Company to the extent such Losses are not fully reimbursed by insurance
and otherwise to the fullest extent such indemnification would not be inconsistent with the Articles of Incorporation, the 1940
Act, the laws of the State of Maryland and other applicable law.

 

    8 

     

    

 

(b)           The
Adviser shall indemnify the Company, and its Affiliates and Controlling Persons, for any Losses that the Company or its Affiliates
and Controlling Persons may sustain as a result of the Adviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, reckless
disregard of its duties hereunder or violation of applicable law, including the federal and state securities laws.

 

		9.	Limitation
                                         on Indemnification.

 

Notwithstanding
Section 8(a) to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall protect or be deemed to protect any of the Indemnified Parties against,
or entitle or be deemed to entitle any of the Indemnified Parties to indemnification in respect of, any Losses to the Company
or its security holders to which the Indemnified Parties would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith
or gross negligence in the performance of the Adviser’s or Sub-Adviser’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard
of the Adviser’s or Sub-Adviser’s duties and obligations under this Agreement or any Sub-Advisory Agreement (to the
extent applicable, as the same shall be determined in accordance with the 1940 Act and any interpretations or guidance by the
SEC or its staff thereunder).

 

In
addition, notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the provisions of Section 8 and this Section 9 shall not be construed
so as to provide for the indemnification of any Indemnified Party for any liability (including liability under federal securities
laws which, under certain circumstances, impose liability even on persons that act in good faith), to the extent (but only to
the extent) that such indemnification would be in violation of applicable law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate the
provisions of Section 8 and this Section 9 to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

		10.	Effectiveness,
                                         Duration and Termination of Agreement.

from a reputable insurer. The Company shall make all premium payments required to maintain such policy in full force and effect;
provided, however, each Additional Insured Party, if any, shall pay to the Company, in advance of the due date of such premium,
its allocated share of the premium. Irrespective of whether the Adviser and any Sub-Adviser is a named Additional Insured Party

the “FS/KKR Advisor” design (collectively, the “Brand”). In connection with the Company’s (a) public
filings; (b) requests for information from state and federal regulators; (c) offering materials and advertising materials; and
(d) investor communications, the Company may state in such materials that investment advisory services are being provided by the
Adviser to the Company under the terms of this Agreement. The Adviser hereby grants a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable
and royalty-free license (the “License”) to the Company for the use of the Brand solely as permitted in the
foregoing sentence. Prior to using the Brand in any manner, the Company shall submit all proposed uses to the Adviser for prior
written approval solely to the extent the Company’s use of the Brand or any combination or derivation thereof has materially
changed from the Company’s use of the Brand previously approved by the Adviser. The Adviser reserves the right to terminate
the License immediately upon written notice for any reason, including if the usage is not in compliance with its standards and
policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of the License granted under this Section 21 shall be for the term of this Agreement
only, including renewals and extensions, and the right to use the Brand as provided herein shall terminate immediately upon the
termination of this Agreement. The Company agrees that the Adviser is the sole owner of the Brand, and any and all goodwill in
the Brand arising from the Company’s use shall inure solely to the benefit of the Adviser. Without limiting the foregoing,
the License shall have no effect on the Company’s ownership rights of the works within which the Brand shall be used.

W
I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS,
the Company is a non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development
company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (together with the rules promulgated thereunder, the “1940 Act”);

 

WHEREAS,
the Company desires to retain the Administrator to provide administrative services to the Company in the manner and on the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

 

WHEREAS,
the Administrator is willing to provide administrative services to the Company in the manner and on the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter contained and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Administrator hereby agree as follows:

 

1.            Duties
of the Administrator.

 

(a)          Engagement
of Administrator. The Company hereby engages and retains the Administrator to furnish, or arrange for others to furnish, the
administrative services, personnel and facilities described below for the period and on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement. The Administrator hereby accepts such engagement and retention and agrees during such period to render, or arrange
for the rendering of, such services and to assume the obligations herein set forth, subject to the reimbursement of costs and
expenses provided for below. The Administrator and any others with whom the Administrator subcontracts to provide the services
set forth herein, shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be independent contractors of the Company and shall, unless otherwise
expressly provided or authorized herein, have no authority to act for or represent the Company in any way or otherwise be deemed
agents of the Company.

 

The
Administrator shall be subject to review and oversight by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”)
to assure that the administrative procedures, operations and programs of the Company are in the best interests of the Company’s
shareholders.

 

     

     

    

 

(b)          Services.
The Administrator shall perform (or oversee, or arrange for, the performance of) the administrative services necessary for the
operation of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator shall:

 

(i)          provide
the Company with office facilities and equipment, and provide clerical, bookkeeping, accounting and recordkeeping services, legal
services, and shall provide all such other services, except investment advisory services, as the Administrator, subject to review
by the Board of Directors, shall from time to time determine to be necessary or useful to perform its obligations under this Agreement;

 

(ii)         on
behalf of the Company, enter into agreements and/or conduct relations with custodians, depositories, transfer agents, distribution
disbursing agents, the dividend reinvestment plan administrator, shareholder servicing agents, accountants, auditors, tax consultants,
advisers and experts, investment advisers, compliance officers, escrow agents, attorneys, underwriters, managing dealers, brokers

in any such other capacity deemed to be necessary or desirable by the Administrator and the Company;

 

(iii)        be
authorized to enter into one or more sub-administration agreements (each a “Sub-Administration Agreement”)
with other service providers (each a “Sub-Administrator”) pursuant to which the Administrator may obtain the
services of the service providers in fulfilling its responsibilities hereunder (any such Sub-Administration Agreements shall be
in accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act and other applicable federal and state law and shall contain a provision requiring
the Sub-Administrator to comply with Sections 2 and 3 as if it were the Administrator);

 

(iv)        make
reports to the Board of Directors of its performance of obligations hereunder;

 

(v)         furnish
advice and recommendations with respect to such other aspects of the business and affairs of the Company as the Administrator
reasonably shall determine to be desirable; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to require the Administrator
to, and the Administrator shall not pursuant to this Agreement, provide any advice or recommendation relating to the securities
or other assets that the Company should purchase, retain or sell or any other investment advisory services to the Company;

 

(vi)        assist
the Company in the preparation of the financial and other records that the Company is required to maintain and the preparation,
printing and dissemination of reports that the Company is required to furnish to shareholders, and reports and other materials
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and states and jurisdictions where any offering of the Company’s shares
is registered and there is a duty to file information with one or more states on an ongoing basis;

 

     2

     

    

 

(vii)       assist
the Company in determining and publishing the Company’s net asset value, oversee the preparation and filing of the Company’s
tax returns, and generally oversee and monitor the payment of the Company’s expenses and ensure that fees and expenses are
within any applicable limitations set forth in the Company’s articles of incorporation, as amended from time to time (“Articles
of Incorporation”); and

 

(viii)      oversee
the performance of sub-administrative and other professional services rendered to the Company by others.

 

2.         
  Records.

 

The
Administrator shall maintain and keep all books, accounts and other records of the Company that relate to activities performed
by the Administrator hereunder as required under the 1940 Act. The Administrator agrees that all records which it maintains and
preserves for the Company shall at all times remain the property of the Company, shall be readily accessible during normal business
hours, and shall be promptly surrendered to the Company upon the termination of the Agreement or otherwise on written request
by the Company. The Administrator further agrees that the records which it maintains for the Company will be preserved in the
manner and for the periods prescribed by the 1940 Act, unless any such records are earlier surrendered as provided above. Records
shall be surrendered in usable machine-readable form. The Administrator shall have the right to retain copies of such records
for an indefinite period, subject to observance of its confidentiality obligations under this Agreement. The Administrator shall
maintain records of the locations where any books, accounts and records of the Company are maintained by third parties providing
services directly or indirectly to the Company.

 

3.        
   Confidentiality.

 

The
parties hereto agree that each shall treat confidentially all information provided by each party to the other regarding its business
and operations. All confidential information provided by a party hereto, including all “nonpublic personal information,”
as defined under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (Public law 106-102, 113 Stat. 1138), shall be used by the other party hereto
solely for the purpose of rendering services pursuant to this Agreement and, except as may be required in carrying out this Agreement,
shall not be disclosed to any third party, without the prior consent of such providing party, except that such confidential information
may be disclosed to an affiliate or agent of the disclosing party to be used for the sole purpose of providing the services set
forth herein. The foregoing shall not be applicable to any information that is publicly available when provided or thereafter
becomes publicly available other than through a breach of this Agreement, or that is required to be disclosed to any regulatory
authority, by judicial or administrative process or otherwise by applicable law or regulation.

 

     3

     

    

 

4.       
    Allocation of Costs and Expenses.

 

The
Company shall bear all costs and expenses for the administration of its business and shall reimburse the Administrator for any
such costs and expenses which have been paid by the Administrator on behalf of the Company on the terms and conditions set forth
in Section 5. These costs and expenses shall include, but not be limited to:

 

(a)           office
administration;

 

(b)           allocable
portion of expenses and rent pertaining to the Administrator’s duties performed hereunder;

 

(c)           allocable
portion of salaries, rent and expenses, including board meeting travel expenses, of employees of the Administrator also serving
in the capacity of chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs;

 

(d)           costs
associated with the monitoring and preparation of regulatory reporting, including registration amendments, prospectus supplements,
and tax reporting;

 

(e)           costs
and expenses related to preparation for, and conducting of, Board of Director and annual shareholder meetings, secretarial services,
oversight of corporate calendar, shareholder and director communications and services;

 

(f)            soliciting
and oversight of risk management protocols, including fidelity bond, and director and officers insurance policies;

 

(g)           coordination
and oversight of service provider activities and the direct cost of such contractual matters related thereto; and

 

(h)           coordination
and oversight of audits, regulatory inquiries, certifications and sub-certifications.

 

5.       
    No Fee; Reimbursement of Expenses; Limitations on Reimbursement of Expenses.

 

In
full consideration for the provisions of the services provided by the Administrator under this Agreement, the parties acknowledge
that there shall be no separate fee paid in connection with the services provided, notwithstanding that the Company shall reimburse
the Administrator, at the end of each fiscal quarter, for all expenses of the Company incurred by the Administrator as well as
the actual cost of goods and services used for the Company and obtained by the Administrator from entities not Affiliated with
the Company. The Administrator may be reimbursed for the administrative services necessary for the prudent operation of the Company
performed by it on behalf of the Company; provided, however, the reimbursement shall be an amount equal to the lower of the Administrator’s
actual cost or the amount the Company would be required to pay third parties for the provision of comparable administrative services
in the same geographic location; and provided, further, that such costs are reasonably allocated to the Company on the basis of
assets, revenues, time records or other method conforming with generally accepted accounting principles and consistent with past
practice (but solely to the extent such past practice is not inconsistent with the policies of the Administrator).

 

     4

     

    

 

6.        
   Affiliate Defined.

7.       
    Limitation of Liability of the Administrator; Indemnification.

 

(a)           Indemnification.
The Administrator and any Sub-Administrator and their officers, directors, shareholders (and their shareholders or members, including
the owners of their shareholders or members) agents, employees, controlling persons (as determined under the 1940 Act), and any
other person or entity affiliated with, or acting on behalf of, the Administrator in performing its obligations under this Agreement,
including any Sub-Administrator, each of whom shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof (each an “Indemnified
Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) shall not be liable to the Company for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by any such Indemnified Party in connection with the performance of any of its duties or obligations
under this Agreement, any Sub-Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for the Company, and the Company shall indemnify,
defend and protect the Indemnified Parties and hold them harmless from and against all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) (“Losses”)
incurred by the Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other
proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Company or its security holders) arising out of or otherwise
based upon the performance of any of the Indemnified Parties’ duties or obligations under this Agreement, any Sub-Administration
Agreement or otherwise as administrator for the Company: (i) to the extent such Losses: (A) are not fully reimbursed by insurance
and (B) do not arise by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Parties’
performance of such duties or obligations, or the Indemnified Parties’ reckless disregard of such duties and obligations;
and (ii) otherwise to the fullest extent such indemnification is permitted under the Articles of Incorporation, the 1940 Act,
the laws of the State of Maryland and other applicable law.

 

     5

     

    

 

(b)           Notwithstanding
any of the foregoing to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 7 shall not be construed so as to provide for the indemnification
of any Indemnified Party for any liability (including liability under federal securities laws which, under certain circumstances,
impose liability even on persons that act in good faith), to the extent (but only to the extent) that such indemnification would
be in violation of applicable law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate the provisions of this Section 7 to the fullest
extent permitted by law.

 

8.      
     Activities of the Administrator.

 

The
services provided by the Administrator to the Company are not exclusive, and the Administrator may engage in any other business
or render similar or different services to others, including the direct or indirect sponsorship or management of other investment
based accounts or commingled pools of capital, however structured, whether having investment objectives similar to or different
from those of the Company, so long as its services to the Company hereunder are not impaired thereby and nothing in this Agreement
shall limit or restrict the right of any officer, director, shareholder (and their shareholders or members, including the owners
of their shareholders or members), officer or employee of the Administrator to engage in any other business or to devote his or
her time and attention in part to any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to receive any fees or compensation
in connection therewith (including fees for serving as a director of, or providing consulting services to, one or more of the
Company’s portfolio companies, subject to applicable law). The Administrator assumes no responsibility under this Agreement
other than to render the services set forth herein.

 

9.

of the outstanding voting securities of the Company and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Company’s directors who are not
parties to this Agreement or “interested persons” (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, or
any successor provision thereto) of any such party (the “Independent Directors”), in accordance with the requirements

(b)           Termination.
This Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty: (i) by the Company upon 60 days’ prior

is defined in Section 2(a)(42) of the 1940 Act) or (B) the vote of the Board of Directors or (ii) by the Administrator upon not
less than 120 days’ prior written notice to the Company. This Agreement and the rights and duties of a party hereunder may
not be assigned, including by operation of law, by a party without the prior consent of the other party and this Agreement automatically
shall terminate in such event. The provisions of Section 7 shall remain in full force and effect, and the Administrator shall
remain entitled to the benefits thereof, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement.

 

     6

     

    

 

After
the termination of this Agreement, the Administrator shall not be entitled to compensation for further services provided hereunder

unenforceability shall not affect the remainder hereof.

 

12.      
   Counterparts.

 

This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original copy and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument binding on all parties hereto, notwithstanding that all parties shall not have signed the

    Governing Law.

 

Notwithstanding
the place where this Agreement may be executed by any of the parties hereto and the provisions of Section 7, this Agreement shall
be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles thereof.
For so long as the Company is regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, this Agreement shall also be construed in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act. In such case, to the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York or any of
the provisions herein conflict with the provisions of the 1940 Act, the latter shall control.
