• Pre-Closing Transactions Prior to the purchase of the Initial Securities on the Closing Date, the Pre-Closing Transactions shall have been duly consummated at the respective times and on the terms contemplated by this Agreement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and the Representatives shall have received such evidence that the Pre-Closing Transactions have been consummated as the Representatives may reasonably request.

• Alternative Transactions (a) Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 6.02, until the Effective Time, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Company Subsidiaries, or any director, officer or employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, to, or authorize any investment banker, attorney or other advisor or representative retained by it or any of the Company Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage, or take any other action to knowingly facilitate, any Alternative Transaction Proposal or the making of any proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Transaction Proposal, (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish or provide access to any Person any information with respect to, any Alternative Transaction Proposal (except, subject to this Section 6.02, to disclose the existence of the provisions of this Section 6.02), (iii) authorize, approve or cause or permit the Company to enter into any merger agreement, acquisition agreement, memorandum of understanding, letter of intent or similar agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) relating to an Alternative Transaction Proposal (an “Alternative Transaction Agreement”) or (iv) agree or resolve to take any actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of this sentence. (b) Until the Effective Time, the Company shall promptly (but in any event within one Business Day) notify Parent orally and in writing after receipt of (i) any Alternative Transaction Proposal or any inquiry, offer or proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Transaction Proposal or (ii) any request for nonpublic information with respect to the Company or Company Subsidiaries relating to any Alternative Transaction Proposal. Such notice shall include the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Transaction Proposal or inquiry, offer, proposal or request (including the identity of the Person making any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, inquiry, offer, proposal or request) and any amendments thereto. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.02(a), if at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval the Company receives an unsolicited, bona fide Alternative Transaction Proposal from any Person that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisor, is, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal, the Company may (i) furnish or provide access to information to the Person making such Alternative Transaction Proposal with respect to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that the Company shall as promptly as is reasonably practicable make available to Parent and Merger Sub any written information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries that is provided to any Person pursuant to this Section 6.02(c)(i) to the extent such information was not previously provided to Parent or Merger Sub) and (ii) engage in discussions or negotiations with such Person and its Representatives with respect to such Alternative Transaction Proposal. Upon Parent’s request, the Company shall provide Parent a reasonably detailed update on the status and terms of any discussions, negotiations, inquiries, offers, proposals or requests relating to any such Alternative Transaction Proposal. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall provide to Parent, as soon as practicable and in any event within one (1) Business Day after receipt or delivery thereof, copies of all draft agreements (and any other transaction documents to the extent such transaction documents contain any financial terms, conditions or other material terms relating to such Alternative Transaction Proposal, and a summary of the terms of any financing commitments related thereto to the extent applicable and available) sent by or provided to the Company. (d) Except as set forth in this Section 6.02(d), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw, withhold, qualify, amend or modify in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, the approval or recommendation by the Company Board of this Agreement or the Merger, (ii) approve, adopt, endorse or recommend any Alternative Transaction Proposal or Alternative Transaction Agreement or (iii) agree, propose or resolve to take any of the actions set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of this sentence. Notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, but subject to the other terms of this Section 6.02(d), prior to the time the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company Board may (A) if an Intervening Event has occurred, withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify its approval or recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger in connection with such Intervening Event or (B) if the Company has received after the date hereof an Alternative Transaction Proposal that the Company Board determines, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisor, is a Superior Proposal, withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify its approval or recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger and approve or recommend such Superior Proposal (any action in clause (A) or (B), a “Change of Recommendation”), in each case if, but only if: (i) the Company notifies Parent and Merger Sub in writing (a “Change of Recommendation Notice”), at least four (4) Business Days in advance, that the Company Board intends to effect a Change of Recommendation and the reasons therefor, which notice shall (y) in the case of an Intervening Event, describe in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances giving rise or relating to such Intervening Event, and (z) in the case of a Superior Proposal, identify the Person making such Superior Proposal, describe the material terms and conditions thereof (including any financing commitments related thereto to the extent applicable and available), and include unredacted copies of the most current and complete draft of any proposed Alternative Transaction Agreement; (ii) the Company negotiates, and causes its outside legal counsel and independent financial advisor to negotiate, in good faith with Parent and its outside legal counsel and independent financial advisor (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) during such four (4) Business Day period (the “Notice Period”) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board not to effect a Change of Recommendation with respect to such Intervening Event or so that such Alternative Transaction Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, as the case may be; (iii) at the conclusion of the Notice Period, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisor, and after taking into account any changes to this Agreement proposed in writing by Parent, that (y) the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation would reasonably be likely to result in a breach of the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (z) in the case of a Superior Proposal, that such Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal; and (iv) in the case of a Superior Proposal, the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01(d)(i) promptly after effecting such Change of Recommendation and immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with such termination, pays to Parent any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 9.02(b). In the event of any material change in the facts or circumstances giving rise to any such Intervening Event or to the terms of any such Superior Proposal (including any change to the amount or form of consideration), the Company shall, in each case, provide Parent with a new Change of Recommendation Notice, except that the Notice Period shall be two (2) Business Days instead of four (4) Business Days, before the Company Board may effect a Change of Recommendation and, in the case of a Superior Proposal, terminate this Agreement. (e) Nothing contained in this Section 6.02 shall prohibit the Company from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any required disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board, failure to so disclose would reasonably be likely to result in a violation of applicable Law; provided, however, that if such disclosure does not reaffirm the approval or recommendation by the Company Board of this Agreement and the Merger or has the substantive effect of withholding, withdrawing, qualifying, amending or modifying, in a manner adverse to Parent and Merger Sub, the approval or recommendation by the Company Board of this Agreement or the Merger, such disclosure shall be deemed to be a Change of Recommendation (it being understood, however, that a “stop, look and listen” communication to the Company’s stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act shall not be deemed a Change of Recommendation). (f) For purposes of this Agreement:

• Adverse Transactions Enter into any transaction which materially and adversely affects the Collateral or its ability to repay the Obligations in full as and when due;

• Acquisition Transactions The Company shall provide the holder of this Warrant with at least twenty (20) days’ written notice prior to closing thereof of the terms and conditions of any of the following transactions (to the extent the Company has notice thereof): (i) the sale, lease, exchange, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s property or business, or (ii) its merger into or consolidation with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), or any transaction (including a merger or other reorganization) or series of related transactions, in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of.

• Merger Transaction 2.1 Merger of Acquisition Sub into the Company. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 2.3), Acquisition Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate existence of Acquisition Sub shall cease and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

In the event that Repo Custodian receives conflicting proper instructions from Seller and the Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating Funds, Repo Custodian shall follow the Participating Funds' or the Custodian's proper instructions. The Participating Funds shall give Repo Custodian only such instructions as shall be permitted by the Master Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating Funds, may from time to time instruct Repo Custodian to transfer cash from the Transaction Account to Custodian. (b) (i) Whenever on any Banking Day one or more Funds and Seller agree to enter into a repurchase transaction, Seller and the Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating Funds, will give Repo Custodian proper instructions by telephone or otherwise on the Sale Date, specifying the Transaction Category, Repurchase Date, Sale Price, Repurchase Price or the applicable Pricing Rate and the Margin Percentage for each such repurchase transaction. (ii) In the case of repurchase transactions in which the Repurchase Date is the Banking Day next following the Sale Date (x) the Participating Funds may increase or decrease the Sale Price for any such repurchase transaction by no more than 10% of the initial Sale Price by causing to be delivered further proper instructions by telephone or otherwise to Repo Custodian prior to the close of business on the Sale Date and (y) Seller and the Participating Funds may by mutual consent agree to increase or decrease the Sale Price by more than 10% of the initial Sale Price by causing to be provided further proper instructions to Repo Custodian by the close of business on the Sale Date. In any event, Repo Custodian shall not be responsible for determining whether any such increase or decrease of the Sale Price exceeds the 10% limitation. (c) Seller will take such actions as are necessary to ensure that on the Sale Date the aggregate Market Value of all Securities held by Repo Custodian for Seller and cash in the Seller Account equals or exceeds the Margin Percentage of the Sale Price. Seller shall give Repo Custodian proper instructions specifying with respect to each of the Securities which is to be the subject of a repurchase transaction (a) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities, and (b) the Market Value of such Securities. Such instructions shall constitute Seller's instructions to Repo Custodian to transfer the Securities to the Participating Funds and/or Cash Collateral from the Seller Account to the Transaction Account.

• Conditions Applicable to All Sale and Purchase Transactions (a) Any transaction effected under this Article X or in connection with the acquisition of additional Collateral Loans shall be conducted on an arm’s length basis and, if effected with a Person that is an Affiliate of the Collateral Manager (or with an account or portfolio for which the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates serves as investment adviser), shall be on terms no less favorable to the Borrower than would be the case if such Person were not such an Affiliate or as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement. (b) Upon each contribution of one or more Collateral Loans from the BDC to the Borrower and upon each acquisition by the Borrower of a Collateral Loan from the BDC, the Collateral Manager or any of their respective Affiliates (each such contribution or other such acquisition, an “Affiliate Loan Acquisition”) (i) all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest to such Collateral Loan shall be subject to the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) such Collateral Loan shall be Delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Custodian on its behalf, as applicable), provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Related Documents and Loan Checklist may be delivered within ten (10) Business Days of the contribution or acquisition.

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing limitations shall not apply (i) to Warranty Loans (as defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement) or (ii) where Collateral Loans are sold by the Borrower in connection with a Permitted Securitization.
