“Weighted Average Life” means, as of any date of determination with respect to all Eligible Collateral Loans, the number of years following such date obtained by:

(a)summing the products of (i) the Average Life at such time of each Eligible Collateral Loan multiplied by (ii)(A) the Principal Balance plus (B) the Unfunded Amount of such Collateral Loan; and

(b)dividing such sum by the sum of the Aggregate Principal Balance plus the Unfunded Amount of all Eligible Collateral Loans as of such date.

For purposes of the foregoing, the “Average Life” is, on any date of determination with respect to any Eligible Collateral Loan, the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the sum of the products of (A) the number of years (rounded to the nearest one hundredth thereof) from such date of determination to the respective dates of each successive Scheduled Distribution of principal of such Collateral Loan and (B) the respective amounts of principal of such Scheduled Distributions by (ii) the sum of all successive Scheduled Distributions of principal on such Collateral Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Weighted Average Life of a Revolving Collateral Loan shall be excluded from such calculation unless mutually agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

“Weighted Average Floating Spread” means, as of any Measurement Date, a fraction (expressed as a percentage) obtained by (i)(x) multiplying the Principal Balance of each floating rate Collateral Loan (excluding the unfunded portion of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loan or Revolving Collateral Loan) held by the Borrower as of such Measurement Date by its Effective Spread and (y) multiplying the unfunded portion of each Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loan and each Revolving Collateral Loan held by the Borrower as of such Measurement Date by the related commitment fee, (ii) summing the amounts determined pursuant to clause (i), and (iii) dividing the sum determined pursuant to clause (ii) by the Aggregate Principal Balance of all floating rate Collateral Loans; provided that Defaulted Collateral Loans shall not be included in the calculation of the Weighted Average Floating Spread.

“Withdrawal Liability” means liability to a Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan, as such terms are defined in Part I of Subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA.

effect to (x) all purchases or sales to be entered into on such Trade Date and (y) all Advances requested to be made on such Trade Date plus the balance of all unfunded Advances to be made in connection with the Borrower’s purchase of previously requested (and approved) Collateral Loans.

(i)Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein, all monetary calculations (other than for Dollars) under this Agreement shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such amount, as applicable.

(j)References in this Agreement to the Borrower’s “purchase” or “acquisition” of a Collateral Loan include references to the Borrower’s acquisition of such Collateral Loan by way of a sale and/or contribution from the Equityholder and the Borrower’s making or origination of such Collateral Loan. Portions of the same Collateral Loan acquired by the Borrower on different dates (whether through purchase, receipt by contribution or the making or origination thereof, but excluding subsequent draws under Revolving Collateral Loans or Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans) will, for purposes of determining the purchase price of such Collateral Loan, be treated as a weighted average purchase price for any particular Collateral Loan.

(k)For the purposes of calculating compliance with each of the Concentration Limitations all calculations will be rounded to the nearest 0.01%.

(l)For purposes of calculating compliance with any test under this Agreement in connection with the acquisition or disposition of a Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment, the trade date (the “Trade Date”) (and not the settlement date) with respect to any such Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment under consideration for acquisition or disposition shall be used to determine whether such acquisition or disposition is permitted hereunder.

(b)Without prejudice to their rights hereunder and without accepting any liability, each Relevant Recipient a party hereto acknowledges (or in the case of additional Lenders, shall acknowledge) that the agreed form of the transaction summary as set out in Schedule 10 is the transaction summary to be provided to each Relevant Recipient by the Borrower in accordance with the requirements of Article 7(1)(c) of the Securitisation Regulation.

(c)None of the Borrower and the Servicer shall be liable for the relevant Lender’s compliance with such Xxxxxx’s own obligations under the Securitisation Regulation or any other similar regulatory obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not limit the liability of the Borrower or the Servicer for any breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement, including this Section 13.24.



Section 13.25 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that this Agreement provides support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for hedge agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), 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 Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that this Agreement 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 Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation
USActive 58363225.2

and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a 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 this Agreement 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 this Agreement 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.
