Section 1.3 Assumptions and Calculations with respect to Collateral Obligations

In connection with all calculations required to be made pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Scheduled Distributions on any Collateral Obligations, or any payments on any other assets included in the Collateral, with respect to the sale of and reinvestment in Collateral Obligations, and with respect to the income that can be earned on Scheduled Distributions on such Collateral Obligations and on any other amounts that may be received for deposit in the Collection Account, the provisions set forth in this Section 1.3 shall be applied. The provisions of this Section 1.3 shall be applicable to any determination or calculation that is covered by this Section 1.3, whether or not reference is specifically made to Section 1.3, unless some other method of calculation or determination is expressly specified in the particular provision.

(a) Scheduled interest due on Collateral Obligations on which payments are subject to withholding taxes will be the minimum net amount to be received after giving effect to the maximum permitted withholding and to any “gross-up” payments required to be made by the related Obligor pursuant to such loan’s Related Contracts.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all monetary calculations under this Agreement shall be in Dollars.

(c) The determination of the percentage of Total Capitalization that would be represented by a specified type of Collateral Obligations will be calculated by dividing the Aggregate Maximum Principal Balance of such specified type of Collateral Obligations by Total Capitalization. For purposes of this Section 1.3(c), a “type” of Collateral Obligation shall correspond to each clause of the definition of “Concentration Limitations” and clause (e) of the definition of “Eligibility Criteria”.

(d) Any portion of a Collateral Obligation or other loan or security owned of record by the Borrower that has been assigned by the Borrower to a third party and released from the Lien of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof shall no longer constitute Collateral or a Collateral Obligation hereunder.

(e) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests, except as otherwise specified in the Coverage Tests, such calculations will not include scheduled interest and principal payments on Defaulted Loans unless or until such payments are actually made.

(f) For each Due Period and as of any date of determination, the Scheduled Distribution on any Collateral Obligations (other than Defaulted Loans, which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have a Scheduled Distribution of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and collections to be received during such Due Period in respect of such Collateral Obligations (including the proceeds of the sale of such Collateral Obligations received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to be received

- 54 -

during such Due Period) and not reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 8.2 that, if received as scheduled, will be available in the Collection Account at the end of such Due Period and (ii) any such amounts received in prior Due Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Quarterly Payment Date or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 8.2.

(g) Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to a Collateral Obligation shall be assumed to be received on the applicable Due Date.

(h) References in the Priority of Payments to calculations made on a “pro forma basis” shall mean such calculations after giving effect to all payments, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, that precede (in priority of payment) or include the clause in which such calculation is made.

(i) For purposes of calculating all Concentration Limitations, in the numerator of any component of the Concentration Limitations, Defaulted Loans will be treated as having a Maximum Principal Balance equal to zero.

(j) Except as otherwise provided herein, Defaulted Loans will not be included in the calculation of the Collateral Quality Test.

(k) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests, the Collateral Quality Test and the Concentration Limitations, capitalized or deferred interest (and any other interest that is not paid in cash) on Collateral Obligations will be excluded other than any capitalized or deferred interest that is acquired using Principal Proceeds or the proceeds of any Funding.

(l) References in this Agreement to the Borrower’s “purchase” or “acquisition” of a Collateral Obligation include references to the Borrower’s making or origination of such Collateral Obligation. Portions of the same Collateral Obligation acquired or originated 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 Obligations or Delayed Funding Obligations) will, for purposes of determining the purchase price of such Collateral Obligation, be treated as separate purchases on separate dates (and not a weighted average purchase price for any particular Collateral Obligation). Each Collateral Obligation that is originated by the Borrower shall be deemed to have a “purchase price” of par.

(m) For purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Spread or Weighted Average Coupon, (i) a Collateral Obligation that is a Step-Down Loan will be treated as having the lowest per annum interest rate or spread over the applicable index or benchmark rate over the remaining maturity of such Collateral Obligation and (ii) a Collateral Obligation that is a Step-Up Loan will be treated as having the then current per annum interest rate or spread over the applicable index or benchmark rate.

(n) For purposes of calculating compliance with any tests under this Agreement (including without limitation the Coverage Tests, the Collateral Quality Test and the Concentration Limitations), the trade date (and not the settlement date) with respect to any acquisition or disposition of a Collateral Obligation or Eligible Investment shall be used to determine whether and when such acquisition or disposition has occurred.

- 55 -

(o) For the avoidance of doubt, a failure to satisfy the Eligibility Criteria upon the acquisition or origination of a debt obligation or a breach of Section 5.11 shall not occur solely as a result of any property of an Obligor being subject to a Lien imposed by law, such as materialmen’s, warehousemen’s, mechanics’, carriers’, workmen’s and repairmen’s Liens and other similar Liens, arising by operation of law in the ordinary course of business for sums that are not overdue or are being contested in good faith.

Section 1.4 Cross-References; References to Agreements. “Herein”, “hereof” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision. Unless otherwise specified, references in this Agreement to any Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit are references to such Article or Section of, or Schedule or Exhibit to, this Agreement, and references in any Article, Section, Schedule or definition to any subsection or clause are references to such subsection or clause of such Article, Section, Schedule or definition.

ARTICLE II

THE SENIOR LOANS

Section 2.1 The Commitment. On the terms and subject to the applicable conditions hereinafter set forth, including, without limitation, Article III, each Senior Lender severally agrees to make loans to the Borrower (each, a “Senior Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period beginning on and including the Closing Date up to but excluding the Reinvestment Period End Date, in each case in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding (i) such Senior Lender’s Commitment and (ii) as to all Senior Lenders, the Senior Lender Funding Commitment at such time.

Each such borrowing of a Senior Loan on any single day is referred to herein as a “Funding”.

Within such limits and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Reinvestment Period the Borrower may borrow (and re-borrow) Senior Loans under this Section 2.1 and prepay Senior Loans under Section 2.7.

- 56 -

Each Senior Lender severally agrees, on the last day of the Reinvestment Period (except if the Reinvestment Period End Date occurs as a result of clause (b), (d), (f) or (g) of the definition thereof), to make a Senior Loan (and the Borrower hereby directs that such Senior Loan be made) in an amount equal to its Percentage Share of the Unfunded Amount (less the amount on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account) as of the date such Senior Loan is made (such Senior Loan, the “Future Funding Reserve Loan”), but only to the extent that its Percentage Share does not exceed its unfunded Commitment. The Borrower shall deposit the proceeds of such Senior Loans in the Future Funding Reserve Account such that the amounts on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account equal the Unfunded Amount.

Section 2.2 Making of the Senior Loans.

(a) If the Borrower desires a Funding to occur under this Agreement it shall give the Agents a written notice in substantially the form set forth on Exhibit B hereto (each, a “Funding Request”), which Funding Request shall promptly be sent by the Facility Agent to each Senior Lender, for such Funding not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day prior to the day of the requested Funding.

Each Funding Request shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, dated the date the request for the related Funding is being made, signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower and otherwise be appropriately completed. The proposed Funding Date specified in each Funding Request shall be a Business Day prior to the Reinvestment Period End Date.

The amount of the Funding requested in each Funding Request (the “Requested Amount”) shall be equal to at least $250,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the remaining unfunded Senior Lender Funding Commitment hereunder).

Each Funding Request shall be revocable by the Borrower only if notice of such revocation is given to the Senior Lenders and the Facility Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is one Business Day before the date of the related Funding. Notices of Funding shall otherwise be irrevocable.

(b) Each Senior Lender shall, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each Funding Date in respect of the Senior Loans to be made by it hereunder, make its Percentage Share of the applicable Requested Amount available to the Borrower by disbursing such funds in Dollars to an account specified by the Borrower in the Funding Request.

(c) The failure of any Senior Lender to make any Senior Loan on a date of Funding hereunder shall not relieve any other Senior Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Senior Loan on such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provision to the contrary contained herein, if any Senior Lender shall have failed to fund its Percentage Share on the applicable date of Funding and the Borrower provides a new Funding Request as a result of such failure to fund, then, in each such case, if necessary to make such Funding, the Borrower shall be permitted a single additional Senior Loan without regard to the minimum borrowing limit set forth herein.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.3 shall, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Senior Loans therein recorded; provided that the failure of the Facility Agent or any Senior Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Senior Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that in the event of a conflict between the entries maintained in such accounts and the Register, the Register shall control. In the event of a conflict between the entries maintained by a Senior Lender and those maintained by the Facility Agent, the records of the Facility Agent shall control.

(d) Any Senior Lender may request that its Senior Loans to the Borrower be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Senior Lender a Note payable to such Senior Lender (or, if requested by such Senior Lender, to such Senior Lender and its registered assigns) and otherwise appropriately completed. Thereafter, the Senior Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.5) be represented by one or more Notes payable to such Senior Lender (or registered assigns pursuant to Section 12.5), except to the extent that such Senior Lender (or registered assignee) subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Senior Loans once again be evidenced as described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.3. At the time of any payment or prepayment in full of the Senior Loans evidenced by any Note, such Note shall be surrendered to the Facility Agent promptly (but no more than five Business Days) following such payment or prepayment in full. Any such Note shall be cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the Quarterly Payment Date immediately following the end of such Interest Period and on the Maturity Date.

(c) In the event that, and for so long as, an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Loans, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, overdue interest in respect of the Senior Loans, shall bear interest for each day at the annual rate of the sum of (i) the rate set forth in Section 2.5(b) plus (ii) two percent (the “Post-Default Rate” for Senior Loans).

(d) The Facility Agent shall determine the interest rate applicable to the Senior Loans for any Interest Period or portion thereof pursuant to this Section 2.5 and the related definitions.

Section 2.6 Commitment Fees.

(a) Commitment Fees Payable. The Borrower shall pay to the Senior Lenders pursuant to Section 6.4 or 9.1, as applicable, ratably in proportion to their respective Percentage Shares (provided that if the Commitment of any Senior Lender is reduced as the result of a Bail-In Action, such Senior Lender’s Percentage Share shall be calculated based on its Commitment as so reduced), the Commitment Fee accruing for each day during each Interest Period.

The Commitment Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the Quarterly Payment Date immediately following each Interest Period for which such fees accrue as provided in the Priority of Payments and shall be calculated by the Facility Agent pursuant to Section 2.10.

(b) Fees Non-Refundable. All fees set forth in this Section 2.6 shall be deemed to have been earned on the date such payment is due in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and shall be non-refundable.

(ii) The Borrower shall have the right at any time to reduce (including a reduction in full that results in a termination of the Senior Lender Funding Commitments) the Senior Lender Funding Commitment by an amount specified by the Borrower (such amount, the “Senior Commitment Reduction Amount”) upon not less than two Business Days’ (or such shorter period agreed to by the Facility Agent) prior notice to the Senior Lenders and the Facility Agent of any such reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date of such reduction, whereupon the Senior Lender Funding Commitment shall be reduced by Senior Commitment Reduction Amount on the effective date set forth in such notice of reduction; provided that in the case of a reduction in full, the Aggregate Senior Lender Termination Amounts and Administrative Expenses are paid in full. Such notice of reduction shall be effective only upon receipt and shall permanently reduce (and, in the case of a reduction in full, shall terminate) the Commitments of each Senior Lender on the date specified in such notice and shall specify the amount of any such reduction; provided that no such reduction will reduce the Senior Lender Funding Commitment below the Outstanding Senior Loans at such time.

(iii) The Senior Lender Funding Commitment (and the Commitment of each Senior Lender), once terminated or reduced, may not be reinstated.

All prepayments of Senior Loans pursuant to this Section 2.7(c) shall be applied in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.7(f) and shall not be subject to the Priority of Payments.

(d) Upon receipt of a notice of reduction or prepayment from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.7(a) or (c), the Facility Agent shall promptly notify each Senior Lender of the contents thereof and of such Senior Lender’s ratable share (if any) of such reduction or prepayment and such notice shall thereafter be revocable by the Borrower no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) one Business Day before the date set forth by the Borrower in the

provided that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.1, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the Senior Loans and all such other amounts shall automatically become due and payable, without any further action by any party.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Controlling Parties or the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Facility Agent or the Controlling Parties) will have the right to take any other remedies set forth in Section 6.3(b) below or other remedies permitted by law.

Section 6.3 Additional Collateral Provisions.

(a) Release of Security Interest. If and only if the Aggregate Senior Lender Termination Amount has been paid in full and all Commitments have been terminated, the Secured Parties shall, at the expense of the Borrower, promptly execute, deliver and file or authorize for filing such instruments as the Borrower shall reasonably request in order to reassign, release or terminate the Secured Parties’ security interest in the Collateral. The Secured Parties acknowledge and agree that upon the sale, substitution or disposition of any Collateral by the Borrower in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the date of any such sale, substitution or other disposition, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall automatically and without further action be deemed to and hereby does terminate and release the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Collateral and the Secured Parties shall, at the expense of the Borrower, execute, deliver and file or authorize for filing such instrument as the Borrower shall reasonably request to reflect or evidence such termination. Any and all actions under this Article VI in respect of the Collateral shall be without any recourse to, or representation or warranty by any Secured Party and shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

(b) Additional Rights and Remedies. The Collateral Agent (for itself and on behalf of the other Secured Parties), acting at the direction of the Controlling Parties through the Facility Agent, shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other applicable law. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent or its designees shall, at the direction of the Controlling Parties through the Facility Agent, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including the UCC) and notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, (i) instruct the Borrower to deliver any or all of the Collateral, the Related Contracts and any other documents relating to the Collateral to the Collateral Agent or its designees and otherwise give all instructions for the

- 87 -

Borrower regarding the Collateral; (ii) if the Senior Loans have been accelerated in accordance with this Agreement, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, all without judicial process or proceedings; (iii) take control of the proceeds of any such Collateral; (iv) subject to the provisions of the applicable Related Contracts, exercise any consensual or voting rights in respect of the Collateral; (v) release, make extensions, discharges, exchanges or substitutions for, or surrender all or any part of the Collateral; (vi) enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral; (vii) institute and prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize upon, any of the Collateral; (viii) require that the Borrower immediately take all actions necessary to cause the liquidation of the Collateral in order to pay all amounts due and payable in respect of the Obligations, in accordance with the terms of the Related Contracts; (ix) redeem or withdraw or cause the Borrower to redeem or withdraw any asset of the Borrower to pay amounts due and payable in respect of the Obligations; (x) subject to Section 12.15, make copies of or, if necessary, remove from the Borrower’s and its agents’ place of business all books, records and documents relating to the Collateral; and (xi) endorse the name of the Borrower upon any items of payment relating to the Collateral or upon any proof of claim in bankruptcy against an account debtor.

The Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy available to it under this Agreement unless at and until (and to the extent) the express direction of the Controlling Parties through the Facility Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any such action at the direction of the Controlling Parties through the Facility Agent, any Secured Party or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Collateral Agent, (x) shall be in violation of any applicable law or contrary to any provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Agent to liability hereunder (unless it has been provided with an indemnity agreement (including the indemnity provisions contained herein and in the other Loan Documents) which it reasonably deems to be satisfactory with respect thereto).

The Borrower hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Controlling Parties or acting directly or through the Facility Agent) or the Controlling Parties, it shall execute all documents and agreements which are necessary or appropriate to have the Collateral assigned to the Collateral Agent or its designee. For purposes of taking the actions described in clauses (i) through (xi) of this Section 6.3(b) the Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment being coupled with an interest and is irrevocable while any of the Obligations remain unpaid and which can be exercised only if such Event of Default is continuing), with power of substitution, in the name of the Collateral Agent or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and, except as permitted by applicable law, without notice to the Borrower.

All documented sums paid or advanced by the Collateral Agent in connection with the foregoing and all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including documented and reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate for the Senior Loans from the date of demand of repayment by the Collateral Agent until repaid in full, shall be paid by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent from time to time on demand in accordance with the Priority of Payments and shall constitute and become a part of the Obligations secured hereby.

- 88 -

Without the prior written consent of the Controlling Parties, credit bidding by any Senior Lender or any other Person in connection with any foreclosure sale hereunder shall not be permitted.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI, in connection with the sale of the Collateral following an acceleration of the Obligations, each of the BDC or the Collateral Manager (or any of its Affiliates) shall have the right (which right, for avoidance of doubt, shall be irrevocably forfeited if not exercised within the specified timeframe) to purchase all of the Collateral Obligations in the Collateral within two Business Days of its receipt of notice of such acceleration by paying to the Collateral Agent in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the Aggregate Senior Lender Termination Amount and, without duplication, all unpaid Administrative Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing purchase rights, if the Collateral Agent or the Controlling Parties propose to sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, each of the BDC, the Collateral Manager (or any of its Affiliates) and the Senior Lenders (and any of their respective Affiliates) shall have the right to offer bids to acquire all or any portion of the Collateral sold at such sale. To the extent the Facility Agent (at the direction of the Controlling Parties) elects to sell any or all Collateral Obligations at such public or private sale, such Collateral Obligations or any parcel thereof shall be sold to the party offering the highest bid in immediately available funds.

(c) Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of the Agents and the other Secured Parties, or any of them, as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Agents or any other Secured Party of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by such Persons of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

(d) Related Contracts.

(i) The Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent not expressly prohibited by the terms of the Related Contracts, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it shall (x) upon the written request of either Agent, promptly forward to such Agent all information and notices which it receives under or in connection with the Related Contracts relating to the Collateral, subject to applicable confidentiality requirements, and (y) upon the written request of either Agent, act and refrain from acting in respect of any request, act, decision or vote under or in connection with the Related Contracts relating to the Collateral only in accordance with the direction of such Agent; provided that if the Borrower receives conflicting requests pursuant to this subclause (y), it shall follow whichever request is evidenced to be derived from the direction of the Controlling Parties.

- 89 -

(ii) The Borrower agrees that, to the extent the same shall be in the Borrower’s possession, it will hold all Related Contracts relating to the Collateral in trust for the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, and upon request of either Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or as otherwise provided herein, promptly deliver the same to the Collateral Agent or its designee.

(e) Borrower Remains Liable.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Borrower shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in and relating to the Collateral (including the Related Contracts) to the extent set forth therein, and shall perform all of its duties and obligations under such contracts and agreements to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed and (y) the exercise by any Secured Party of any of its rights hereunder shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under any such contracts or agreements included in the Collateral.

(ii) No obligation or liability of the Borrower is intended to be assumed by either Agent or any other Secured Party under or as a result of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including under any Related Contract or any other agreement or document that relates to Collateral and, to the maximum extent permitted under provisions of law, the Agents and the other Secured Parties expressly disclaim any such assumption.

(f) Protection of Collateral. The Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of and at the expense of the Borrower, shall from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and file or authorize the filing of all such UCC-1 financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable or desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the Senior Lenders hereunder and to:

(i) grant security more effectively on all or any portion of the Collateral;

(ii) maintain, preserve and perfect any grant of security made or to be made by this Agreement including, without limitation, the first priority nature of the lien or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

(iii) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any grant made or to be made by this Agreement (including, without limitation, any and all actions necessary or desirable as a result of changes in law or regulations);

(iv) enforce any of the Collateral or other instruments or property included in the Collateral;

- 90 -

(v) preserve and defend title to the Collateral and the rights therein of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties in the Collateral against the claims of all Persons and parties; and

(vi) pay or cause to be paid any and all material Taxes levied or assessed upon all or any part of the Collateral, except to the extent such Taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently concluded; provided that any reserve or other appropriate provision as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor.

The Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent as its agent and attorney in fact to prepare and file any UCC-1 financing statement, continuation statement and all other instruments, and take all other actions, required pursuant to this Section 6.3. Such authorization shall not impose upon the Collateral Agent, or release or diminish, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 6.3. The Borrower further authorizes the Facility Agent’s United States counsel to file any UCC-1 or UCC-3 financing statements that may be required by the Agents in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 6.4 Application of Proceeds. On the Maturity Date (other than in the case of the Scheduled Maturity Date) and any Business Day designated by the Controlling Parties with at least two Business Days’ notice to the Facility Agent following the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, all proceeds received in respect of Collateral will be applied to the Obligations in the following order of on each date or dates fixed by the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Controlling Parties acting through the Facility Agent). In all other cases, all proceeds received in respect of the Collateral will be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments specified in Section 9.1(a).

(a) to the payment of Taxes (but not including any accrued and unpaid Indemnified Taxes), any registration and filing fees then due and owing by the Borrower;

(b) first, to the payment to the Collateral Agent for all due and unpaid Collateral Agent Fees and all other Administrative Expenses owing to the Collateral Agent, all amounts owing and payable hereunder to the Collateral Administrator, the Custodian and U.S. Bank, as Securities Intermediary (including, in each case, without limitation, indemnity payments); and second, to the payment to the Facility Agent for all Administrative Expenses owing to the Facility Agent (including, without limitation, indemnity payments);

(c) except if an Acceleration Event has occurred, unless waived by the Collateral Manager, which waiver shall be permanent and irrevocable, to the payment to the Collateral Manager of all due and unpaid Senior Collateral Management Fees in an amount not to exceed the accrued Senior Collateral Management Fees for one Due Period;

(d) to the payment to the Senior Lenders (with respect to principal, ratably in proportion to the Senior Lenders’ respective Percentage Shares) of the Aggregate Senior Lender Termination Amount;

(e) except if an Acceleration Event has occurred, unless waived by the Collateral Manager, which waiver shall be permanent and irrevocable, to the payment to the Collateral Manager of all due and unpaid Subordinated Collateral Management Fees in an amount not to exceed the accrued Subordinated Collateral Management Fees for one Due Period;

- 91 -

(f) to the payment of Administrative Expenses (other than those paid under clause (b) above), in the order of priority set forth in the definition of “Administrative Expenses”;

(g) to the payment of all amounts due to the Collateral Manager for any due and unpaid Collateral Management Fees to the extent not paid under clauses (c) and (e) above (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no waived Collateral Management Fees shall be payable pursuant to this clause (g)); and

If on any date that payments are made pursuant to this Section 6.4 the amount available to be paid pursuant to any of the foregoing clauses (a) through (h) is insufficient to make the full amount of the disbursements required pursuant to any such clause, such payments will be applied in the order and according to the priority set forth in clauses (a) through (h) above and (except as provided in subclauses “first” and “second” of clause (b) or as otherwise provided above) ratably in accordance with the respective amounts owing under any such clause to the extent funds are available therefor.

Section 6.5 Capital Contributions. The equityholders of the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to (except as otherwise required herein, including with respect to the initial Equity Funding hereunder), at any time or from time to time make a capital contribution in Cash or Eligible Investments or an assignment and contribution of a Collateral Obligation (valued at such Collateral Obligation’s Adjusted Collateral Principal Amount) to the Borrower for any purpose, including for the purpose of curing any Event of Default (provided that no such contribution shall cure any Event of Default without the consent of the Controlling Parties), enabling the acquisition or sale of any Collateral Obligation or satisfying any Eligibility Criteria, Coverage Test or Collateral Quality Test. Unless otherwise directed by the Borrower by prior or contemporaneous written notice to the Collateral Manager, the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent, all Cash contributed to the Borrower shall be treated as Principal Proceeds except to the extent that such Cash is used on the Closing Date to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the structuring, consummation and closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

THE AGENTS

Section 7.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Senior Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Only the Agents (and not one or more of the Senior Lenders) shall have the authority to deal directly with the Borrower under this Agreement and each Senior Lender acknowledges that all notices, demands or requests from such Senior Lender to the Borrower must be forwarded to the applicable Agent for delivery to the Borrower. Each Senior Lender acknowledges that the Borrower has no obligation to act or refrain from acting on instructions or demands of one or more Senior Lenders absent written instructions from an Agent in accordance with its rights and authority hereunder.

- 92 -

Section 7.2 Agents and Affiliates. The Agents shall (in addition to its rights and power as an Agent granted hereunder) each have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as the Senior Lenders and may each exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not an Agent, and such Agents and their respective affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not an Agent hereunder, and the term “Senior Lender” and “Senior Lenders” may include Barclays, U.S. Bank and/or any Affiliate of Barclays or U.S. Bank in its individual capacity. The provisions in this Article VII with respect to the Agents shall apply only to the Agents acting in their capacities as such hereunder and not as Senior Lenders.

Section 7.3 Actions by Agent. The obligations of the Agents hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Neither Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Senior Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of any Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or shall otherwise exist against any Agent. The provisions of this Article VII are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Senior Lenders (other than Sections 7.1 and 7.8, which are also for the benefit of the Borrower). In performing its functions and duties solely under this Agreement, each Agent shall act solely as the agent of the Senior Lenders (other than with respect to Section 12.5(f)) and does not assume, nor shall be deemed to have assumed, any obligation or relationship of trust with or for the Senior Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article VI.

Section 7.4 Delegation of Duties; Consultation with Experts. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through its subsidiaries, affiliates, agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.5 Limitation of Liability of Agents.

(a) No Agent nor any of its respective affiliates, directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (x) with the consent or at the request of the Controlling Parties, or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence, fraud, reckless disregard, bad faith, criminal conduct or willful misconduct. No Agent nor any of its respective affiliates, directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any Funding hereunder; (ii) the

- 93 -

performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article III, except receipt of items required to be delivered to such Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. No Agent shall incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith in accordance with a request of the Controlling Parties, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Senior Lenders. Under no circumstances shall the Agents be deemed liable for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages (including lost profits) even if such Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and regardless of the form of action.

(b) The following additional provisions apply with respect to the Collateral Agent:

(i) the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default until an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice (which notice shall refer to this Agreement and state that such notice is a notice of Default or Event of Default) thereof from the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Facility Agent, a Senior Lender or any other Person;

(ii) no provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it; provided, however, that the reasonable and documented costs of performing its ordinary services under this Agreement shall not be deemed a “financial liability” for purposes hereof;

(iii) if, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Agent may request written instructions from the Facility Agent (and the Facility Agent shall request written instructions from the Controlling Parties) as to the course of action desired. If the Collateral Agent does not receive such instructions within five Business Days after its request therefor, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions received after such five Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken, or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions;

- 94 -

(iv) the Collateral Agent shall be under no liability for interest on any funds received by it hereunder except to the extent of income or other gain on Eligible Investments which are deposits in or certificates of deposit of U.S. Bank or any Affiliate in its commercial capacity and income or other gain actually received (and not subsequently reinvested, withdrawn or distributed) by the Collateral Agent in Eligible Investments;

(v) the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for delays or failures in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control (such acts include but are not limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war and interruptions, losses or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications services); it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as reasonably practicable under the circumstances; and

(vi) without prejudice to the Collateral Agent’s duties under Article VI or any other provision of any Loan Document, the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to take any action to collect from any Obligor any amount payable by such Obligor on the Collateral Obligations or any other Collateral under any circumstances, including if payment is refused after due demand.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but shall not be limited to acts of god, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters.

(d) In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for the selection of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Borrower to timely provide investment instruction to the Collateral Agent in connection with the investment of funds in or from any account set forth herein. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2(c) or Section 8.3, in the absence of a Borrower Order or, after an Event of Default, a direction from the Facility Agent, all funds in any account held under this Agreement shall be held uninvested. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to release U.S. Bank from any liability it may have as an obligor under any Eligible Investment.

(e) The Collateral Agent and its Affiliates shall be permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral Agent’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Eligible Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Eligible Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to this Agreement.

- 95 -

(f) Without limiting the generality of any terms of this Section 7.5, the Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the Senior Lenders, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Manager or the Borrower to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Agent, or otherwise on the part of any such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance on the Collateral Agent’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.

(g) The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to (i) confirm or verify whether the conditions to the delivery of Collateral have been satisfied or to determine whether (A) a loan is a Collateral Obligation or meets the criteria in the definition thereof or is otherwise eligible for purchase hereunder, (B) an investment is an Eligible Investment or meets the criteria in the definition thereof or is otherwise eligible for purchase hereunder or (ii) evaluate the sufficiency of the documents or instruments delivered to it by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with the grant by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent of any item constituting the Collateral or otherwise, or in that regard to examine any underlying documents, in order to determine compliance with the applicable requirements of and restrictions on transfer of a Collateral Obligation or Eligible Investment.

(h) In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (collectively, “Applicable Laws”), the Collateral Agent is required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Collateral Agent. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to provide to the Collateral Agent upon its request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Collateral Agent to comply with Applicable Laws. The Collateral Agent may from time to time establish any additional accounts deemed necessary or desirable for convenience in administering the Collateral so long as each such account is at all times subject to a valid and perfected first priority lien in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

(i) The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or any other Loan Document at the request or direction of the Controlling Parties or Facility Agent unless it shall have been provided indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its attorneys and counsel), and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance with or in performing such request or direction. No provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document shall otherwise be construed to require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or to take any action that could in its judgment cause it to incur any cost, expenses or liability unless it is provided an indemnity reasonably acceptable to it against any such expenditure, risk, costs, expense or liability. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy available to it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless and until directed by the Controlling Parties (or the Facility Agent on their behalf).

- 96 -

(j) The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard or grossly negligent performance or omission of its duties. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel for the Borrower or the Facility Agent or any of their Affiliates) and independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the actions of omissions of the Facility Agent (including without limitation concerning the application of funds), or under any duty to monitor or investigate compliance on the part of the Facility Agent with the terms or requirements of this Agreement, any Loan Document or any related document, or their duties thereunder. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to assume the due authority of any signatory and genuineness of any signature appearing on any instrument or document it may receive hereunder.

(k) The delivery of reports, and other documents and information to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document is for informational purposes only and the Collateral Agent’s receipt of such documents and information shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. Whether or not expressly stated in such Loan Documents, in performing (or refraining from acting) thereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights, benefits, protections and indemnities which are afforded to it in this Agreement.

(l) Except as expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, nothing herein shall be construed to impose an obligation on the part of the Collateral Agent to recalculate, evaluate or verify any report, certificate or information received by it from the Borrower, Collateral Manager, any Senior Lender or Facility Agent or to otherwise monitor the activities of the Borrower or Collateral Manager.

(m) In the event that the Collateral Agent is also acting in the capacity of Custodian, paying agent, securities intermediary hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Article VII shall also be afforded to U.S. Bank acting in such capacities.

(n) The Collateral Agent shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent responsible for the administration of this Agreement, or unless and to the extent written notice of such matter is received by the Collateral Agent at its address in accordance with Section 12.1.

- 97 -

(o) The Collateral Agent shall in no event have any liability for the actions or omissions of the Borrower, the Senior Lenders, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Manager or any other Person, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracy or error in any duty performed by it that results from or is caused by inaccurate, untimely or incomplete information or data received by it from the Borrower, the Senior Lenders, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Manager or any other Person except to the extent that such inaccuracies or errors are caused by the Collateral Agent’s own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for failing to perform or delay in performing its specified duties hereunder which results from or is caused by a failure or delay on the part of the Borrower, the Senior Lenders, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Manager or another Person in furnishing necessary, timely and accurate information to the Collateral Agent provided that such information is required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent hereunder or is requested by the Collateral Agent from such Person.

Section 7.6 Indemnification. Each Senior Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Percentage Share, indemnify the Agents, their respective affiliates, directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower as may be required under this Agreement) against any cost, expense (including fees and disbursements of counsel), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents (including any enforcement by any Agent of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder or thereunder, and, in each case, whether or not a claim, demand, action was brought by or involving the Borrower, any Senior Lender, or any third party.

Section 7.7 Credit Decision. Each Senior Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Senior Lender or any of their respective affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Senior Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Senior Lender or their respective affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement or in connection therewith. The Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Senior Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates other than in connection with their acting as Agents under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 7.8 Successor Agent.

(a) An Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Senior Lenders, the Borrower and the Collateral Manager; provided that any such resignation by an Agent shall not be effective until a successor agent shall have been appointed and approved in accordance with this Section 7.8. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Controlling Parties shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Agent

- 98 -

shall have been so appointed by the Controlling Parties, shall have been approved by the Borrower, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the notice of resignation or removal thereof, then the retiring Agent may (i) petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Agent or (ii) appoint a successor Agent, in each case, which such successor Agent shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as such Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, and the successor Agent shall provide written notice of such appointment to the Senior Lenders and the Collateral Manager. In addition, upon the affirmative vote of the Controlling Parties exercising good faith that an Agent has acted with gross negligence or committed an act of willful misconduct or failed to act as required due to gross negligence or willful misconduct in its capacity as agent for the Senior Lenders hereunder, the Controlling Parties may immediately remove such Agent; provided that (i) a Senior Lender hereunder agrees to serve as Agent and (ii) the Borrower has consented to such Senior Lender serving as Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) until a successor Agent shall be appointed pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.8. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent. With respect to any Person (i) into which an Agent may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which an Agent shall be a party or (iii) with respect to the Collateral Agent that may succeed to the corporate trust business and assets of the Collateral Agent substantially as a whole, shall be the successor to such Agent under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

ACCOUNTS AND COLLATERAL

Section 8.1 Collection of Money.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent may demand payment or delivery of, and shall receive and collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent or other intermediary, all Money and other property payable to or receivable by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement (other than amounts specifically required herein to be paid to the Facility Agent), including, but not limited to, all payments or any other amounts due on the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments. The Collateral Agent shall segregate and hold all such Money and property received by it in trust for the Senior Lenders and shall apply it as provided in this Agreement.

(b) All payments on the Collateral Obligations and other Collateral shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent (at a bank in the United States), will be held in the Collection Account, one sub-account of which shall be designated the “Interest Collection Account” and the other sub-account the “Principal Collection Account” and will be divided into Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds. Such amounts shall be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of this Agreement.

- 99 -

(c) The Borrower will provide the Collateral Agent with a certified copy of each agreement under which the Borrower sells a Participation Interest in any Collateral Obligation pursuant to Section 10.1(b) or sells all or any part of a Collateral Obligation by assignment pursuant to Section 10.1. Upon receipt of written certification by the Borrower (which may take the form of standing instructions with respect to a specified portion of all payments received on designated Collateral Obligations) to the effect that specified amounts received by the Collateral Agent from an Obligor do not constitute Collections subject to this Agreement but are required by the terms of such a participation or assignment agreement to be paid by the Borrower to the purchaser of a Participation Interest sold by the Borrower or assignee of the Borrower, as the case may be, the Collateral Agent will disburse such amounts, as directed in such certificate.

(d) The parties to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement intend that each of the Covered Accounts shall be securities accounts of Borrower subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent. The Custodian shall comply with entitlement orders originated by the Collateral Agent without the further consent of any other person or entity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Collateral Agent notifies the Custodian that the Collateral Agent shall exercise exclusive control over the Covered Accounts, the Custodian shall cease complying with entitlement orders or other directions relating to the Covered Accounts (or any financial assets or other funds or property credited to or held, deposited, or carried in the Covered Accounts) originated by the Borrower or any other Person or entity other than the Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall not seek to exercise exclusive control over the Covered Accounts at any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default (and at the direction of the Facility Agent).

The Custodian shall agree, and U.S. Bank as Custodian hereby agrees, with the Collateral Agent that (i) each of the Covered Accounts shall be securities accounts of the Borrower subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent, (ii) all property credited to the Covered Accounts shall be treated as a “financial asset” for purposes of the UCC, (iii) the Custodian shall treat the Collateral Agent as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise each financial asset credited to the Covered Accounts subject to the rights of the Borrower specified herein, (iv) the Custodian shall not agree with any person or entity other than the Collateral Agent to comply with entitlement orders originated by any person or entity other than the Collateral Agent, (v) the Covered Accounts and all property credited to the Covered Accounts shall not be subject to any lien, security interest, right of set-off, or encumbrance in favor of the Custodian or any person or entity claiming through the Custodian (other than the Collateral Agent) except for the right to debit for any item returned by reason of non-sufficient funds, (vi) the State of New York shall be the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction of the Custodian for purposes of the UCC, and (vii) any agreement between the Custodian and the Collateral Agent with respect to the Covered Accounts shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Notwithstanding any term hereof or elsewhere to the contrary, it is hereby expressly acknowledged that (a) interests in bank loans or participations (collectively, “Loan Assets”) may be acquired and delivered by the Borrower to the Securities Intermediary from time to time which are not evidenced by, or accompanied by delivery of, a security (as that term is defined in UCC Section 8-102) or an instrument (as that

- 100 -

term is defined in Section 9-102(a)(47) of the UCC), and may be evidenced solely by delivery to the Securities Intermediary of a facsimile copy of an assignment agreement (“Loan Assignment Agreement”) in favor of the Borrower as assignee, (b) any such Loan Assignment Agreement (and the registration of the related Loan Assets on the books and records of the applicable obligor or bank agent) shall be registered in the name of the Borrower, and (c) any duty on the part of the Securities Intermediary with respect to such Loan Asset (including in respect of any duty it might otherwise have to maintain a sufficient quantity of such Loan Asset for purposes of UCC Section 8-504) shall be limited to the exercise of reasonable care by the Securities Intermediary in the physical custody of any such Loan Assignment Agreement that may be delivered to it; provided that the Custodian shall maintain such Loan Assets as required by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. It is acknowledged and agreed that the Securities Intermediary is not under a duty to examine underlying credit agreements or loan documents to determine the validity or sufficiency of any Loan Assignment Agreement (and shall have no responsibility for the genuineness or completeness thereof), or for the Borrower’s title to any related Loan Asset.

Section 8.2 Collection Account.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name “ABPCIC Funding I LLC Collection Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Collection Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over such account, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of withdrawal, into which the Collateral Agent shall from time to time deposit (i) all proceeds received from the disposition of any Collateral (unless, during the Reinvestment Period, simultaneously reinvested in Collateral Obligations, subject to Article X, or in Eligible Investments or to prepay the Senior Loans in accordance with Section 2.7) and (ii) all Interest Proceeds and all Principal Proceeds. All Monies deposited from time to time in the Collection Account pursuant to this Agreement shall be held by the Collateral Agent as part of the Collateral and shall be applied for the purposes herein provided. The Collection Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Collection Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of Sections 6.4, 8.2 and 9.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to establish one or more subaccounts of the Collection Account, and which together will comprise the “Collection Account” for all purposes of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement.

(b) All Distributions and any net proceeds from the sale or disposition of Pledged Collateral or other collateral received by the Collateral Agent shall, subject to the parenthetical in Section 8.2(a)(i), be immediately deposited into the Collection Account. Subject to Sections 8.2(d) and 8.2(e), all such property, together with any investments in which funds included in such property are or will be invested or reinvested during the term of this Agreement, and any income or other gain realized from such investments, shall be held by the Collateral Agent in the Collection Account as part of the Collateral subject to disbursement and withdrawal as provided in this Section 8.2. (i) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is

- 101 -

continuing, by Borrower Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Borrower shall and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Facility Agent (at the direction of the Controlling Parties) shall direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order or direction, as applicable, the Collateral Agent shall, invest all funds received into the Collection Account during a Due Period, and amounts received in prior Due Periods and retained in the Collection Account, as so directed in Eligible Investments having stated maturities no later than the second Business Day immediately preceding the next Quarterly Payment Date. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent, within one Business Day after receipt of any Distribution or other proceeds which are not Cash, shall so notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall, within six months of receipt of such notice from the Collateral Agent, sell such Distribution or other proceeds for Cash (at a price equal to fair market value as reasonably determined by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager in accordance with the Servicing Standard) to any Person (including an Affiliate of the Borrower) and deposit the proceeds thereof in the Collection Account for investment pursuant to this Section 8.2; provided that the Borrower need not sell such Distributions or other proceeds if it delivers a certificate of an Authorized Officer to the Facility Agent certifying that such Distributions or other proceeds constitute Collateral Obligations or Eligible Investments or securities subject to transfer restrictions that do not permit such sale.

(c) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if the Borrower shall not have given any investment directions pursuant to Section 8.2(b), the Collateral Agent shall seek instructions from the Borrower within one Business Day after transfer of such funds to the Collection Account. If the Collateral Agent does not thereupon receive written instructions from the Borrower within five Business Days after transfer of such funds to the Collection Account, the Collateral Agent shall again seek instructions from the Borrower. If the Collateral Agent does not receive written instructions from the Borrower within five Business Days after such second request, it shall invest and reinvest the funds held in the Collection Account, as fully practicable, in U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA), which account shall satisfy the Eligible Investment Required Ratings. The Borrower agrees that it shall not give any instruction to invest such funds other than in accordance with, or subject to an exemption from, the EU Securitisation Laws. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if the Facility Agent (at the direction of the Controlling Parties) shall not have given investment directions to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b) for three consecutive days, the Collateral Agent shall seek instructions from the Facility Agent. All interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Account, any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to the Collection Account, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the Collection Account.

(d) During the Reinvestment Period, the Borrower may by Borrower Order direct the Collateral Agent to, and upon receipt of such Borrower Order the Collateral Agent shall, (i) withdraw funds on deposit in the Collection Account representing Principal Proceeds and reinvest such funds in Collateral Obligations as permitted under and in accordance with the requirements of Article X and such Borrower Order, (ii) apply Principal Proceeds to make a prepayment of the Senior Loans in accordance with Section 2.7 so long as on the date of such prepayment no Commitment Shortfall results therefrom and (iii) transfer Principal Proceeds to the Future Funding Reserve Account so long as on the date of such transfer and after giving effect thereto the amount standing to the credit of the Future Funding Reserve Account shall not exceed the aggregate Unfunded Amount.

- 102 -

After the Reinvestment Period, the Borrower may by Borrower Order direct the Collateral Agent to, and upon receipt of such Borrower Order the Collateral Agent shall apply Principal Proceeds received by the Borrower (before or after the end of the Reinvestment Period) towards (A) the purchase or origination of Collateral Obligations, (B) the payment or funding of Unfunded Amounts or (C) the funding of the Future Funding Reserve Account on any Business Day (in an amount not exceeding the Unfunded Amount), in each case pursuant to commitments entered into by the Borrower prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period.

By Borrower Order, the Borrower may at any time direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order, the Collateral Agent shall, pay from time to time on dates other than Quarterly Payment Dates from Interest Proceeds on deposit in the Collection Account, Administrative Expenses; provided that the aggregate amount of Administrative Expenses paid in any Due Period (excluding Administrative Expenses paid on Quarterly Payment Dates pursuant to the Priority of Payments) shall not exceed the Quarterly Cap applicable on the next Quarterly Payment Date.

(e) The Collateral Agent shall transfer to the Payment Account for application pursuant to Section 9.1(a), on or about the Business Day (but in no event more than two Business Days) prior to each Quarterly Payment Date, any amounts then held in the Collection Account other than proceeds received after the end of the Due Period with respect to such Quarterly Payment Date.

(f) The Collateral Agent may from time to time establish any additional accounts and/or subaccounts, which in each case shall be subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, deemed necessary by the Collateral Agent for convenience in administering the Collateral.

(g) The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower and the Senior Lenders prompt notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Collection Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Collection Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.

(h) At any time and from time to time the Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on the Borrower’s behalf, may deposit into the Collection Account funds not previously subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) granted under this Agreement; provided that (i) the requirements of Section 6.5 are complied with and (ii) upon such deposit into the Collection Account, such funds shall automatically be subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) granted under this Agreement. Any such deposit shall be irrevocable. The Borrower shall notify the Agents in writing of any such deposit prior to or contemporaneously therewith.

- 103 -

Section 8.3 Payment Account; Future Funding Reserve Account; Lender Collateral Account; Closing Expense Account.

(a) Payment Account. The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name “ABPCIC Funding I LLC Payment Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Payment Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over such account, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of withdrawal. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be held in trust by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Except as provided in Sections 6.4 and 9.1, the only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be to pay the interest on and the principal of the Senior Loans in accordance with their terms and the provisions of this Agreement and, upon Borrower Order or in accordance with the Payment Date Report, to pay fees, Collateral Agent Fees, Administrative Expenses, Commitment Fees, Increased Costs, Funding Losses, Indemnified Taxes and other amounts specified therein, each in accordance with (and subject to the limitations contained in) the Priority of Payments. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower and the Senior Lenders immediate notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Payment Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Payment Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Borrower shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Payment Account other than in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The Payment Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank.

(b) Future Funding Reserve Account. The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name “ABPCIC Funding I LLC Future Funding Reserve Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Future Funding Reserve Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and amounts shall be deposited from time to time in such account in accordance with Articles VIII and IX. By Borrower Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order, the Collateral Agent shall, invest all funds received into the Future Funding Reserve Account as so directed solely in overnight funds that are Eligible Investments. The only permitted withdrawals from or applications of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Future Funding Reserve Account shall be (i) to fund or pay Unfunded Amounts, (ii) at the election of the Borrower during the Reinvestment Period, to be applied as Principal Proceeds for use as is provided in this Agreement (including, without limitation, as provided in Section 9.1(a)(ii)) and (iii) after the Reinvestment Period, to the extent of any Excess Reserve Amount, to be applied as Principal Proceeds in accordance with Section 9.1(a)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of all funds on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account on any date that exceeds the aggregate

- 104 -

Unfunded Amount on such date shall be transferred to the Collection Account on such date and applied as Principal Proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts transferred from the Future Funding Reserve Account for application as Principal Proceeds as provided above shall be further invested in Collateral Obligations (to the extent expressly permitted by the other provisions in this Agreement) or applied as Principal Proceeds in accordance with Section 9.1(a)(ii), in each case as expressly provided in this Agreement. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower immediate notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Future Funding Reserve Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Future Funding Reserve Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Future Funding Reserve Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. Any interest earned on Eligible Investments held in the Future Funding Reserve Account shall be applied as Interest Proceeds.

(i) The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name “ABPCIC Funding I LLC Lender Collateral Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Lender Collateral Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement and maintained with the Securities Intermediary in accordance with the Account Control Agreement for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over such account (and each subaccount thereof) and the sole right of withdrawal. The Lender Collateral Account may contain any number of subaccounts for the purposes described in this Section 8.3(c). The only permitted deposits to or withdrawals from the Lender Collateral Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Borrower shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Lender Collateral Account (or any subaccount thereof).

(ii) If any Senior Lender shall at any time be required to deposit any amount in the Lender Collateral Account in accordance with Section 11.5(b)(i), then (x) the Collateral Agent shall create a segregated subaccount of the Lender Collateral Account with respect to such Senior Lender (the “Lender Collateral Subaccount” of such Senior Lender) and (y) the Collateral Agent shall deposit all funds received from such Senior Lender into such Lender Collateral Subaccount. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds credited to a Lender Collateral Subaccount shall be as specified in this Section 8.3(c).

(iii) With respect to any Senior Lender, the deposit of any funds in the applicable Lender Collateral Subaccount by such Senior Lender shall not constitute a Funding by the Borrower and shall not constitute a utilization of the Commitment of such Senior Lender, and the funds so deposited shall not constitute principal outstanding under the Senior Loans. However, from and after the establishment of a Lender Collateral Subaccount, the obligation of such Senior

- 105 -

Lender to make Senior Loans as part of any Funding under this Agreement shall be satisfied by the Collateral Agent withdrawing funds from such Lender Collateral Subaccount in the amount of such Senior Lender’s pro rata share of such Funding. All payments of principal from the Borrower with respect to Senior Loans made by such Senior Lender (whether or not originally funded from such Lender Collateral Subaccount) shall be made by depositing the related funds into such Lender Collateral Subaccount and all other payments from the Borrower (including without limitation all interest and Commitment Fees) shall be made to such Senior Lender in accordance with the order specified in the Priority of Payments. The Collateral Agent shall have full power and authority to withdraw funds from each such Lender Collateral Subaccount at the time of, and in connection with, the making of any such Funding and to deposit funds into each such Lender Collateral Subaccount, all in accordance with the terms of and for the purposes set forth in this Agreement.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if on any Quarterly Payment Date (or on any other Business Day upon one Business Day’s prior written request from such Senior Lender) the sum of the amount of funds on deposit in the Lender Collateral Subaccount exceeds such Senior Lender’s Undrawn Commitment at such time (whether due to a reduction in the aggregate amount of the Commitments or otherwise), then the Collateral Agent shall remit to such Senior Lender a portion of the funds then held in the related Lender Collateral Subaccount in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. Upon the termination of the Commitments following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and no later than one Business Day after such termination) remit to such Senior Lender all of the funds then held in its related Lender Collateral Subaccount.

(v) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, for so long as any amounts are on deposit in any Lender Collateral Subaccount, the Collateral Agent shall invest and reinvest such funds in U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA), which account shall satisfy the Eligible Investment Required Ratings. Interest received on such Eligible Investments shall be retained in such Lender Collateral Subaccount and invested and reinvested as aforesaid. Any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to such Lender Collateral Subaccount and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to such Lender Collateral Subaccount. Neither the Borrower nor the Collateral Agent shall in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency of such Lender Collateral Subaccount resulting from any loss relating to any such investment.

(d) Closing Expense Account. The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name “ABPCIC Funding I LLC Closing Expense Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Closing Expense Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over such account, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of

- 106 -

withdrawal. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Closing Expense Account shall be held in trust by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall deposit $910,000 into the Closing Expense Account. On any Business Day during the period that the Closing Expense Account is open, the Collateral Agent shall apply funds from the Closing Expense Account, as directed by the Borrower, to pay fees and expenses of the Borrower incurred in connection with the structuring, consummation, closing and post-closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Upon the delivery on any date that is at least 30 days after the Closing Date of a Borrower Order instructing the Collateral Agent to close the Closing Expense Account, all funds in the Closing Expense Account will be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest Proceeds and the Closing Expense Account will be closed. By Borrower Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order, the Collateral Agent shall, invest all funds received into the Closing Expense Account during a Due Period as so directed by the Borrower in Eligible Investments. Any income earned on amounts deposited in the Closing Expense Account will be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest Proceeds as it is received. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower immediate notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Closing Expense Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Closing Expense Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Closing Expense Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Closing Expense Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.3(d).

(viii) Sales of Collateral Obligations to Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, one or more Collateral Obligations may be sold from time to time by the Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on the Borrower’s behalf, to the Collateral Manager or an Affiliate thereof or to any account or fund for which the Collateral Manager or an Affiliate thereof acts as investment adviser only if (A) the terms and conditions thereof are no less favorable to the Borrower than the terms it would obtain in a comparable, timely sale with a non-Affiliate, (B) the transactions are effected in accordance with all applicable laws and (C)(i) if such sale is a sale of a Credit Risk Obligation or a Defaulted Loan, the sale price is equal to the highest of (x) the highest actionable bid obtained from at least two unaffiliated loan market participants for such Credit Risk Obligation or Defaulted Loan, if any, (y) the Principal Balance of such Credit Risk Obligation or Defaulted Loan multiplied by the applicable Recovery Rate for such Credit Risk Obligation or Defaulted Loan and (z) the Market Value of such Credit Risk Obligation or Defaulted Loan (provided that Market Value shall not be determined pursuant to clause (d) or (e) of the definition thereof) and (ii) if such sale is a sale of any other Collateral Obligation, the sale price is at least equal to the Market Value with respect to such Collateral Obligation (provided that Market Value shall not be determined pursuant to clause (d) or (e) of the definition thereof).

(ix) Sales of Excess Concentration Loans. The Borrower or the Collateral Manager may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to sell any Excess Concentration Loan at any time during or after the Reinvestment Period if each Concentration Limitation is satisfied immediately after giving effect to such sale.

- 120 -

(x) Sales in Connection with Payment in Full and Termination of the Facility. The Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower, may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to sell, assign or transfer all or any portion of the Collateral in connection with the payment in full of all of the Obligations (other than any unasserted contingent Obligations), the termination of all of the Commitments and the payment of any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Payments; provided that the proceeds from any such sale, assignment or transfer directed pursuant to this Section 10.1(a)(x) are sufficient to pay in full all of the Obligations (other than any unasserted contingent Obligations) and any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Payments. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower, may only direct such sales, assignments or transfers contemplated by this Section 10.1(a)(x) if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time.

(b) Participations.

(i) During the Reinvestment Period, the Borrower may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to sell, and the Collateral Agent shall sell in the manner directed by the Borrower in writing, a Participation Interest in any Collateral Obligation that is a term loan (other than a Delayed Funding Obligation).

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may not sell a Participation Interest in a Revolving Collateral Obligation or a Delayed Funding Obligation.

(i) All sales of Collateral Obligations or any portion thereof (including Participation Interests) pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall be for Cash on a non-recourse basis, which shall be deemed Principal Proceeds for all purposes hereunder.

(ii) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, both prior to and after an Event of Default, the Borrower shall cause any sale or liquidation of any Collateral Obligation or other property or assets to be conducted on an arm’s length basis upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Borrower than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.

Section 10.2 Eligibility Criteria. On and after the date of the initial Funding, a debt obligation will be eligible for purchase or origination (including in connection with a substitution pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(vii)) by the Borrower and inclusion in the Collateral only if as evidenced by an officer’s certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower delivered to the Collateral Agent, the Eligibility Criteria are satisfied at the time such debt obligation is purchased or originated (on a trade date basis), after giving effect to the inclusion of such debt obligation.

ARTICLE XI

CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Section 11.1 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. In the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, if on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(a) the Facility Agent is unable to obtain a quotation for the London Interbank Offered Rate as contemplated by Section 2.5, or

(b) the Controlling Parties advise the Facility Agent that as a result of changes arising after the date of this Agreement the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate as determined by the Facility Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Senior Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Rate Loans for such Interest Period,

in each case the Facility Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Senior Lenders, whereupon until the Facility Agent notifies the Borrower and the Collateral Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, which notice shall be given promptly following the cessation of such circumstances, the obligations (if any) of the Senior Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended; provided that such Senior Lenders shall instead fund or maintain Base Rate Loans, which Base Rate Loans shall convert to Eurodollar Rate Loans immediately upon the cessation of such circumstances.

Section 11.2 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Senior Lender in good faith with any request or directive (to the extent it has the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Senior Lender to make, maintain or fund its Eurodollar Rate Loans (if any) and such Senior Lender shall so notify the Facility Agent, the Facility Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Senior Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower, whereupon until such Senior Lender notifies the Facility Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Senior Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans (if any) shall be suspended (provided that such Senior Lender shall instead fund Base Rate Loans). Before giving any notice to the Facility Agent pursuant to this Section 11.2, such Senior Lender shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and would not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Senior Lender. If circumstances subsequently change so that it is no longer unlawful for an affected Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans as contemplated hereunder, such Senior Lender will, as soon as reasonably practicable after such Senior Lender becomes aware of such change in circumstances, notify the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Facility Agent and upon receipt of such notice, the obligations of such Senior Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be reinstated.

- 122 -

Section 11.3 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) Subject to Section 11.3(b), the Borrower shall, on any Quarterly Payment Date, subject to prior written demand by the Senior Lender of not less than five Business Days to the Facility Agent, the Borrower, the Collateral Manager and the Collateral Administrator, accompanied by a certification in reasonable detail of the amount of such Increased Costs by the Senior Lender, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, pay for the account of the Senior Lender the amount of any Increased Costs which are applied or reasonably allocated by the Senior Lender to the transactions contemplated herein (all as determined by the Senior Lender in its reasonable discretion) and incurred by it as a result of (a) the introduction of any new, or any change in any (or in the interpretation, administration or application of), law or regulation or (b) compliance with any law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement. In determining the amount of any Increased Costs, the Senior Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and shall use averaging and attribution methods consistent with such methods as are used by similarly-situated lenders participating in transactions similar to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything else herein, the amounts to be charged under this Section 11.3 shall be no greater than that which such Senior Lender is generally charging other borrowers similarly situated to the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Senior Lender pursuant to this Section 11.3 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the earlier of (x) the date on which the applicable Senior Lender has actual knowledge of the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and (y) the date on which the applicable Senior Lender should, in the exercise of reasonably care, have knowledge of the event giving rise to such increased cost or reduction; provided that if the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) Section 11.3(a) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is: (a) attributable to a deduction or withholding from a payment of interest under any Loan Document described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes; (b) compensated for by Section 11.4 (or was not so compensated solely because any of the exclusions in Section 11.4 applied); (c) attributable to the breach by the Senior Lender or its Affiliates of any applicable law or regulation; or (d) attributable to any Senior Lender that is a transferee of an original Senior Lender under this Agreement and would not have arisen but for the relevant transfer or (e) if it shall not at the time be the general policy and practice of such Senior Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements from similarly situated borrowers.

Section 11.4 Taxes.

(a) Except as required by applicable law, any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower to or for the account of any Senior Lender or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear, of and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any governmental authority, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto (“Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Senior Lender or any Agent, (i) except with respect to Excluded Taxes, the sum payable to such Senior Lender or Agent shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 11.4(a)) such Senior Lender

- 123 -

or Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Collateral Agent and the Facility Agent, at their respective addresses set forth on Schedule G hereto, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or, if a receipt is not available, such other evidence of payment as may be reasonably acceptable to such Senior Lender, the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent.

(b) The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the applicable Agent (without duplication) timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) (i) The Borrower agrees to indemnify, without duplication, each Senior Lender and the Agents for the full amount of Taxes other than Excluded Taxes (including Taxes other than Excluded Taxes, imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 11.4) paid or payable by such Senior Lender or the Agents (as the case may be) and any liability (including reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date such Senior Lender or the Agents (as the case may be) makes demand therefor accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower establishing liability for such Taxes.

(ii) Each Senior Lender shall severally indemnify each Agent for any Taxes (but only to the extent such Taxes are Excluded Taxes) attributable to such Senior Lender that are payable or paid by such Agent, and any liability (including reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date such Agent makes demand therefor accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Senior Lender establishing liability for such Taxes. Each Senior Lender hereby authorizes each Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Senior Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by such Agent to the Senior Lender from any other source against any amount due to such Agent under this paragraph.

(d) (i) Each Senior Lender that is a U.S. Person, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Senior Lender and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower or any Agent (but only so long as such Senior Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower or such Agent with two copies of executed IRS Form W-9, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying that such Senior Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Each Senior Lender that is not a U.S. Person, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Senior Lender and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower or any Agent (but only so long as such Senior Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower or such Agent with two copies of executed IRS Forms X-0XXX, X-0XXX-X, X-0XXX or W-8IMY, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, either (w) certifying that such Senior Lender is entitled to benefits under an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which eliminates, or reduces the rate of U.S. federal withholding tax on payments hereunder, (x) certifying that the income

- 124 -

receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, (y) in the case of a Senior Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, accompanied by a certificate to the effect that such Senior Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower (or its sole owner, if applicable) within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (z) in the case of a Senior Lender providing a Form W-8IMY, certifying that such Senior Lender is not the beneficial owner of payments hereunder and providing such information and forms as required by applicable law to establish the rate of U.S. withholding tax (if any) with respect to such payments. In addition to the foregoing requirements of this Section 11.4(d)(i), each Senior Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so and as would not materially prejudice its commercial position, on or prior to the date on which such Senior Lender becomes a Senior Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or any Agent), deliver to the Borrower and such Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) executed originals or copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with any required supplementary information.

(ii) Each Senior Lender and Agent, as applicable, shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agents, if applicable) documentation reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, the Facility Agent or the Borrower sufficient for the Agents and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA.

(iii) Each Senior Lender hereby agrees that if any form or certification such Senior Lender previously delivered pursuant to this Section 11.4(d) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Senior Lender shall update such form or certification or notify the Borrower and the Agents in writing of its legal inability to do so, in each case upon request or upon discovery that it is inaccurate.

(e) If a Senior Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified under this Section 11.4, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 11.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Senior Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower, upon the request of such Senior Lender, shall repay to such Senior Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) in the event that such Senior Lender is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (e), in no event will a Senior Lender be required to pay an amount to the Borrower pursuant to this clause (e) the payment of which would place the Senior Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Senior Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This clause (e) shall not be construed to require any Senior Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

- 125 -

(f) All amounts due to the Senior Lenders under this Section 11.4 shall constitute “Indemnified Taxes” payable by the Borrower on the next Quarterly Payment Date pursuant to the Priority of Payments. Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained in this Section 11.4, all payments made to a Senior Lender pursuant to this Section 11.4 shall only be made to the extent funds are available in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.4 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Collateral Agent or the Facility Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Senior Lender, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 11.5 Replacement of Senior Lenders; Downgraded Lenders; Defaulting Lenders.

(a) (x) If and for so long as any Senior Lender is (1) a Downgraded Lender (subject to clauses (b) and (c) below), (2) a Defaulting Lender, (3) requesting compensation under Section 11.3 or (4) unable to make Senior Loans under Section 11.2, (y) if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to such Senior Lender or any authority for the account of such Senior Lender pursuant to Section 11.4 or (z) if and for so long as the obligations of any Senior Lender under this Agreement are the subject of a Bail-In Action, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Senior Lender and the Agents, direct such Senior Lender to assign and delegate (and such Senior Lender shall comply with such direction but shall have no obligation to search for, seek, designate or otherwise try to find, an assignee), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.5), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes to a financial institution that is (I) a Permitted Purchaser and an Approved Senior Lender (and is not otherwise a Defaulting Lender), (II) eligible to purchase the replaced Senior Lender’s Senior Loans under the terms hereof, (III) not prohibited by any applicable law from making such purchase and (IV) not the subject of a Bail-In Action with respect to its obligations hereunder (such purchaser, an “Approved Purchaser”), which shall assume such obligations (and which may be another Senior Lender, if such other Senior Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) such assigning Senior Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal of its Senior Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under its Note (including any amounts under Section 2.9) from such Approved Purchaser (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(ii) in the case of any such assignment or delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 11.3 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 11.4, such assignment or delegation will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

- 126 -

(iii) such assignment or delegation does not conflict with any applicable law.

(b) If and for so long as any Senior Lender is a Downgraded Lender or a Defaulting Lender hereunder:

(i) in the case of a Downgraded Lender, it holds any portion of the Commitment that remain in effect, then, as soon as practicable and in any event within 30 days after becoming a Downgraded Lender, (x) it shall deposit an amount equal to its Undrawn Commitments at such time into the Lender Collateral Account and (y) all principal payments in respect of the Senior Loans which would otherwise be made to such Downgraded Lender shall be diverted to the Lender Collateral Subaccount of such Downgraded Lender in accordance with Section 8.3(c), and any amounts in such Lender Collateral Subaccount shall be applied to any future funding obligations of such Downgraded Lender; and

(ii) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, (x) the Commitment and Senior Loans of any such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Controlling Parties have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.4); provided that a Defaulting Lender’s vote shall be included with respect to any action hereunder relating to any change that would require the consent of each Senior Lender or each affected Senior Lender under Section 12.4 (to the extent such Defaulting Lender is such an affected Senior Lender) and (y) no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which time that Senior Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender during such time).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.5(a) to the contrary, (i) a Senior Lender shall not be required to make any assignment or delegation referred to in Section 11.5(a) if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Senior Lender or the Borrower or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply and such Senior Lender gives notice thereof to the Borrower and (ii) the Borrower may not require a Downgraded Lender to make any such assignment or delegation during the 30-day period referred to in clause (b)(i) above or at any time that a Downgraded Lender is in compliance with clause (b)(i)(x) above.

(d) Each of the Facility Agent and any replaced Senior Lender will agree to cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Borrower for the purpose of effecting a transfer in compliance with this Section 11.5.

(e) Nothing in this Section 11.5 shall be deemed to release a Defaulting Lender or Downgraded Lender from any liability arising from its failure to fund any Senior Loans it is required to make hereunder.

- 127 -

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority, the provisions of this Agreement relating to Downgraded Lenders (including Sections 8.3(c) and 11.5) shall continue to apply after the occurrence of a Bail-In Action, including that any amounts previously deposited in any Lender Collateral Subaccount will remain available in such Lender Collateral Subaccount following the occurrence of a Bail-In Action for the purposes set forth in this Agreement.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, facsimile, facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party: (w) in the case of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent, at its address, facsimile number and/or email address set forth on Schedule G hereto, (x) in the case of the initial Senior Lender, at its address, facsimile number and/or email address set forth on Schedule G hereto or (y) in the case of any party, such other address, facsimile number and/or email address as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile, when such facsimile is transmitted to the facsimile number specified in this Section 12.1 and the appropriate answerback is received, (ii) if given by mail, three Business Days after such communication is deposited in the mails with first class postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid, (iii) if given by recognized courier guaranteeing overnight delivery, one Business Day after such communication is delivered to such courier or (iv) if given by any other means, when delivered at the address or email address specified in this Section 12.1; provided that notices to the Facility Agent under Article XI or to the Collateral Agent under Article VIII shall not be effective until received.

The Collateral Agent agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Agreement sent by unsecured email, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided that any person providing such instructions or directions shall provide to the Collateral Agent an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to provide such instructions or directions, which incumbency certificate shall be amended whenever a person is added or deleted from the listing. If such person elects to give the Collateral Agent email or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Collateral Agent in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Collateral Agent’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Collateral Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any person providing such instructions acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by it and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of such instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances.

- 128 -

Section 12.2 No Waivers. No failure or delay by either Agent or any Senior Lender or the Borrower in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 12.3 Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) The Borrower shall pay, subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments (except as otherwise provided herein pursuant to Section 8.2(d) on the Closing Date), (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Agents, the Custodian and the Securities Intermediary, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with the preparation, syndications and administration of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and any documents and instruments referred to therein, and further modifications or syndications of the Senior Loans in connection therewith, the administration of the Senior Loans, any waiver or consent hereunder or any amendment or modification hereof or any Default hereunder and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, including reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for each Agent, in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents and the instruments referred to therein and such collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom. For the sake of clarity, this Section 12.3(a) shall not impose any payment obligation on the Borrower with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Custodian, U.S. Bank as Securities Intermediary and each Senior Lender, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnitee”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel and experts for each Agent, which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto and whether or not brought by or involving the Borrower or any third party) that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, (i) any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document, (ii) the grant to the Collateral Agent and the Senior Lenders of any Lien, on the Collateral, (iii) the exercise by the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Senior Lenders of their rights and remedies (including, without limitation, foreclosure) under any agreements creating any such Lien, (iv) the failure of the Collateral Agent to have a valid and first-priority perfected Lien on any Collateral, (v) a breach by the Borrower of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document or any document relating to any Collateral, (vi) any enforcement by an Indemnitee of this Agreement, including the indemnity obligations herein or (vii) any loss arising from any action or inaction of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates regarding the administration of any Collateral or otherwise relating to such Collateral (other than

- 129 -

an Obligor’s financial inability to make payments with respect to any such Collateral) but excluding, as to any Indemnitee, any such losses, liabilities, damages, expenses or costs incurred by reason of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 12.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. For the sake of clarity, this Section 12.3(b) shall not impose any indemnification or similar obligation on the Borrower with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent losses, liabilities, damages, expenses or costs arising from non-Tax claims. If the Borrower has made any indemnity payment pursuant to this Section 12.3 and the recipient thereof later collects any payments from others (including insurance companies) in respect of such amounts, then the recipient shall repay to the Borrower an amount equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such amounts net of the recipient’s expenses in collecting such payments and only to the extent that the recipient remains fully indemnified after giving effect to such repayment to the Borrower.

Section 12.4 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Controlling Parties (and, if the rights or duties of the Facility Agent and/or the Collateral Agent are affected thereby, by the Facility Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be); provided that:

(i) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all of the Senior Lenders, (1) extend the Scheduled Maturity Date; (2) increase or decrease the Commitment of any Senior Lender (except for a ratable decrease in the Commitments of all Senior Lenders) or subject any Senior Lender to any additional obligation; (3) change the Percentage Share of the Senior Lender Funding Commitment allocable to any Senior Lender or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Senior Loans, or the number of Senior Lenders, which shall be required for the Senior Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section 12.4 or any other provision of this Agreement; (4) release any Collateral except as provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or (5) alter the terms of Section 2.7, Section 2.8, Section 2.11, Section 6.4, Section 9.1, Section 10.1(c)(ii) or this Section 12.4 (or any defined term as it is used therein) in a manner adverse to the interests of any Senior Lender;

(ii) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all Senior Lenders, postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Senior Loan or any fees or other amounts hereunder or for any reduction or termination of any Commitment; and

(iii) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by a Senior Lender, reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Senior Loan held by such Senior Lender or any fees or indemnities payable for the account of such Senior Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the rescission of interest accruing at the Post-Default Rate, which may be rescinded by the Controlling Parties.

- 130 -

(b) The Borrower shall, promptly following the execution of any amendment, waiver or supplement to any Loan Document, provide copies thereof to each Senior Lender, the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent.

Section 12.5 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Senior Lenders except as permitted by this Agreement.

(b) (i) Any Senior Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks, commercial paper conduits or other institutions (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or any or all of its Senior Loans; provided that each such Participant represents in writing to such Senior Lender that it (and each account for which it is acquiring such participating interest) is both (x) a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act and (y) a Permitted Purchaser. In the event of any such grant by a Senior Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Facility Agent, such Senior Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Facility Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Senior Lender in connection with such Senior Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (d) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b).

(ii) In the event that any Senior Lender sells participations in its Commitment or any or all of its Senior Loans hereunder, such Senior Lender shall, acting solely for this purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of all Participants in the Commitments or Senior Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Commitments or Senior Loans which is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Commitment or Senior Loan may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register. Any participation of such Commitment or Senior Loan may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. No Senior 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 the Senior Lender Funding Commitment, Senior 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 Senior Lender Funding Commitment, Senior Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States

- 131 -

Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Senior 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 Facility Agent (in its capacity as Facility Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(c) (i) Any Senior Lender may at any time assign to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each, an “Assignee”) all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by such Assignee and such transferor Senior Lender, with (and subject to) the consent of the Borrower and the Facility Agent, which consent in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that (1) such assignment is in an amount which is at least $1,000,000 or a multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof (or the remainder of such Senior Lender’s Senior Loans or Commitments); and (2) no such consent shall be required in the case of an assignment that is made (A) during the continuance of an Event of Default; (B) after the Reinvestment Period End Date, (C) prior to the Reinvestment Period End Date if such Assignee is an Approved Senior Lender (without giving effect to the proviso in the definition of “Approved Senior Lender”); or (D) by Barclays or any Affiliate of Barclays to Barclays or any Affiliate of Barclays.

(ii) Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Senior Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Senior Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights, protections and obligations of a Senior Lender with Commitments as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Senior Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Senior Lender, the Facility Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, a new Note is issued to the Assignee. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Senior Lender shall pay to the Facility Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $2,500 (unless such fee is waived by the Facility Agent). Each Assignee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent the relevant form or certification in accordance with Section 11.4(d).

(d) Any Senior Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Note to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment shall release the transferor Senior Lender from its obligations hereunder. Promptly upon being notified in writing of such transfer, the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower thereof.

(e) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Senior Lender’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 11.3 or 11.4 than such Senior Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made by reason of the provisions of Section 11.2 or 11.4 requiring such Senior Lender

- 132 -

to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist at the time of the transfer and except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the Assignee, Participant or other transferee acquired the applicable interest.

(f) The Facility Agent, acting as non-fiduciary agent (solely for this purpose) of the Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Senior Lenders and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the Senior Loans owing to each Senior Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive evidence (absent manifest error) of the accuracy thereof, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Senior Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Senior Loan or Note hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Senior Loan or Note hereunder shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. If any assignment or transfer of all or any part of a Senior Loan that is then evidenced by a Note is made, such assignment or transfer shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the related Note, duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or transfer duly executed by) the holder thereof, and thereupon one or more new Note(s) in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee(s) (and, if applicable, assignor) and the old Note shall be returned to the Borrower marked “cancelled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Senior Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Facility Agent shall provide to the Collateral Agent from time to time at the request of the Collateral Agent information related to the Senior Lenders and Commitments.

Section 12.6 QP Status. Each of the Senior Lenders represents to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, each of the other Senior Lenders and the Borrower that it (and each account for which it is acquiring a Senior Loan or a Commitment) is a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereunder intend that the advances made pursuant to this Agreement constitute loans and not securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Senior Lenders represents to the Facility Agent, each of the other Senior Lenders and the Borrower that it is either (A) an institutional “accredited investor” as defined in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any entity in which all of the equity owners are entities described within such paragraphs) or (B) a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (any persons satisfying such criteria, a “Permitted Purchaser”).

(b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and any action for enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and appellate courts from any thereof. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the hand delivery, or mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to each party hereto at its respective address on Schedule G hereto. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to above and hereby further irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of either Agent, any Senior Lender or any holder of a Note to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.8 Marshalling; Recapture. Neither the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any Senior Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent any Senior Lender receives any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to the Borrower or its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of the Borrower to such Senior Lender as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

Section 12.9 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective upon receipt by the Facility Agent of counterparts hereof signed by each of the parties hereto (which counterparts may be delivered by facsimile or email transmission).

Section 12.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE FACILITY AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE SENIOR LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

- 134 -

(a) All obligations, covenants and agreements of the Borrower contained in or evidenced by this Agreement, the Notes and any Loan Document shall be fully recourse to the Borrower and each and every asset of the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant, or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Note or any Loan Document shall be had against any officer, director, limited liability company manager, limited partner, member, agent or employee (solely by virtue of such capacity) of the Borrower (a “Non-Recourse Party”) and no such Non-Recourse Party shall be personally liable for payment of the Senior Loans or other amounts due in respect thereof (all such liability being expressly waived and released by each Senior Lender and the Agents).

(b) Each Senior Lender and each Agent hereby agrees that it will not institute against the Borrower any proceeding seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law affecting creditors’ rights, present a petition for the winding-up or liquidation of the Borrower or seek the appointment of an administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for the Borrower or for all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower prior to the date that is one year (or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) and one day after the payment in full of the Aggregate Senior Lender Termination Amount and any securities issued by the Borrower that refinance any of the Obligations. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to “non-petition” of the Borrower, the Borrower becomes a debtor in a bankruptcy case by the involuntary petition of any other Person, the Borrower hereby covenants to contest any such petition to the fullest extent permitted by law. The obligations under this Section 12.14(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

- 135 -

(a) Each of the Senior Lenders and the Agents agrees that it shall maintain confidentiality with regard to nonpublic information concerning the Borrower, the Collateral Obligations, any Obligor, the EU Retention Provider or the Collateral Manager and obtained pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that the Senior Lenders and the Agents shall not be precluded from making disclosure regarding such information: (i) to the Senior Lenders’ and Agents’ counsel, accountants and other professional advisors (who are, in each case, subject to this confidentiality agreement); (ii) to officers, directors, employees, examiners, agents and partners of each Senior Lender and its Affiliates and the Agents and their Affiliates who need to know such information in accordance with customary practices for lenders of such type (who are, in each case, subject to this confidentiality agreement and the applicable Lender or Agent shall be responsible for any breach by such Person of these confidentiality provisions); (iii) in response to a subpoena or order of a court or governmental agency or regulatory authority; (iv) to any entity participating or considering participating in any credit made under this Agreement, (provided, the Senior Lenders and Agents shall require that any such entity agree in writing to be subject to this Section 12.15; however, Senior Lenders and Agents shall have no duty to monitor any participating entity and shall have no liability in the event that any participating entity violates this Section 12.15); (v) as required by applicable law or GAAP; (vi) as reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; or (vii) to any organization or other entity that regulates or oversees any Senior Lender, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Senior Lender’s investment portfolio. Any Person that proposes to disclose any information pursuant to subclauses (iii), (v) or (vi) of this Section 12.15(a) shall, to the extent practical, (1) provide the Borrower and the Collateral Manager with prompt written notice of such proposed disclosure, (2) reasonably cooperate with the Borrower or the Collateral Manager so that such Person may obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy with respect to the information to be disclosed or otherwise obtain satisfactory assurances that such information will be treated as confidential and proprietary and (3) disclose only that information that is, in the opinion of counsel to such Person, legally required to be disclosed. The foregoing clauses (1) through (3) shall not apply to any Agent to the extent that a disclosure is made by such Agent to any bank examiner, regulatory or self-regulatory authority in the course of such examiner’s or authority’s routine examination or inspection of such Agent’s business or operations which does not specifically target the information to be disclosed. In connection with enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 12.16, the Borrower shall be entitled to the equitable remedies of specific performance and injunctive relief against the Agents, the Senior Lenders or any subsequent party that agrees to be bound hereto which shall breach the confidentiality provisions herein.

The foregoing provision shall apply from the beginning of discussions between the parties hereto. For this purpose, the tax treatment of a transaction is the purported or claimed U.S. tax treatment of the transaction under applicable U.S. Federal, state or local law, and the tax structure of a transaction is any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. tax treatment of the transaction under applicable U.S. Federal, state or local law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any parties to any Loan Document, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, other than an Excluded Liability, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of any Loan Document to give effect to the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

(b) The assignment made hereby is executed as collateral security, and the execution and delivery hereby shall not in any way impair or diminish the obligations of the Borrower under the provisions of the Collateral Management Agreement, the Master Transfer Agreement or the other documents referred to in clause (a) above, nor shall any of the obligations contained in the Collateral Management Agreement, the Master Transfer Agreement or such other documents be imposed on the Agents.

(c) Upon the occurrence of the Scheduled Maturity Date (or, if earlier, the payment in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of all of the Commitments), the payment of all amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Payments and the release of the Collateral from the lien of this Agreement, this assignment and all rights herein assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Senior Lenders shall cease and terminate and all the estate, right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent in, to and under the Collateral Management Agreement, the Master Transfer Agreement and the other documents referred to in this Section 13.1 shall revert to the Borrower and no further instrument or act shall be necessary to evidence such termination and reversion.

(d) The Borrower represents that it has not executed any other assignment of the Collateral Management Agreement or the Master Transfer Agreement.

(e) The Borrower agrees that this assignment is irrevocable until the Obligations have been repaid in full and all Commitments have terminated, and that it will not take any action which is inconsistent with this assignment or make any other assignment inconsistent herewith.

The “Risk Score” relating to any Collateral Obligation at any time is the percentage set forth in the table below opposite the Collateral Rating of such Collateral Obligation at such time:


Collateral Rating (or equivalent)		Risk Score
AAA		0.0987
AA+		0.1539
AA		0.2091
AA-		0.2994

If any Collateral Obligation does not have a Collateral Rating, the Risk Score for such Collateral Obligation will be determined as provided below:

(a) If a Credit Estimate has not been obtained after 90 days from the acquisition of such Collateral Obligation, unless such Collateral Obligation has received a Credit Estimate, the Risk Score shall be 77.4104;

(b) If a Credit Estimate has previously been obtained but has expired and a new Credit Estimate has not been obtained within 90 days, the Risk Score shall be 77.4104; and

SCHEDULE D

Diversity Score Calculation

The Diversity Score is calculated as follows:

(a) An “Issuer Par Amount” is calculated for each issuer of a Collateral Obligation, and is equal to the Aggregate Maximum Principal Balance of all the Collateral Obligations issued by that issuer and all affiliates.

(b) An “Average Par Amount” is calculated by summing the Issuer Par Amounts for all issuers, and dividing by the number of issuers.

(c) An “Equivalent Unit Score” is calculated for each issuer, and is equal to the lesser of (x) one and (y) the Issuer Par Amount for such issuer divided by the Average Par Amount.

(d) An “Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score” is then calculated for each industry classification group, shown on Schedule B, and is equal to the sum of the Equivalent Unit Scores for each issuer in such industry classification group.

(e) An “Industry Diversity Score” is then established for each industry classification group, shown on Schedule B, by reference to the following table for the related Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score; provided that if any Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score falls between any two such scores, the applicable Industry Diversity Score will be the lower of the two Industry Diversity Scores:


Aggregate				Aggregate				Aggregate				Aggregate
Industry		Industry		Industry		Industry		Industry		Industry		Industry		Industry

[Affected Lender(s)]

Re: Retention of Net Economic Interest

1. This letter is being delivered in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of January 30, 2019 (the “Credit Agreement”) among ABPCIC Funding I LLC, as borrower (the “Borrower”), the financial institutions referred to as “Senior Lenders” in the Credit Agreement, U.S. Bank, National Association, in its capacities as Collateral Agent, Collateral Administrator and Custodian and Barclays Bank PLC, New York Branch, as Facility Agent for the Senior Lenders. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, AB Private Credit Investors Corporation (the “EU Retention Provider”) will act as retention provider for the purposes of the EU Securitisation Laws. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

2. It is acknowledged that clauses (h) and (i) of the definition of “Eligibility Criteria” in the Credit Agreement provide for the following requirements to be satisfied as of the date of each acquisition or origination of a debt obligation (including in connection with a substitution pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(vii) of the Credit Agreement):

“(i) the EU Retention Provider, either itself or through related entities (including the Borrower), directly or indirectly, was involved or will be involved in negotiating the original agreements which created or will create over 50% (measured by total nominal amount) of all the Collateral Obligations acquired (or committed to be acquired) by the Borrower, such proportion measured on the basis of the nominal value at each respective origination of all the Collateral Obligations acquired (or committed to be acquired) by the Borrower in aggregate during the term of this Agreement; and

(j) only in relation to any Collateral Obligations to be acquired by the Borrower that will not be acquired from the EU Retention Provider, the EU Retention Provider, either itself or through related entities (including the Borrower), directly or indirectly, was involved or will be involved in negotiating the original agreements which created or will create over 50% (measured by total nominal amount) of all the Collateral Obligations acquired (or committed to be acquired) by the Borrower, such proportion measured on the basis of the nominal value at each respective origination of all the Collateral Obligations that are expected to be held by the Borrower following the settlement of any such acquisition.”

3. The EU Retention Provider hereby agrees and confirms for the benefit of the Borrower, the Facility Agent and each Affected Lender for so long as any Obligation remains outstanding and any EU Securitisation Law so requires:

that it has retained at all times since the Closing Date, and irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes that it will directly retain as originator for the purposes of the EU Securitisation Laws, on an ongoing basis, a material net economic interest in the securitisation position comprised by the Senior Loans and the membership interests in the Borrower which, in any event, shall not be less than 5% of the nominal value of the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments that constitute Principal Proceeds (or such lower amount, including 0%, as a result of amendment, repeal or otherwise if each of the Facility Agent and each Affected Lender agrees in writing that such lower amount (i) is required or permitted under the applicable EU Securitisation Laws and (ii) complies with its internal retention requirement policies, the “Retained Interest”) (such requirement, the “EU Retention Requirement”);

that it will retain the Retained Interest in the form specified in paragraph 3(d) of Article 6 of the EU Securitisation Regulation in the form of its membership interests in the Borrower under the LLC Agreement, being the first loss tranche and having the same or a more severe risk profile than those transferred or sold to investors, in a nominal amount at least equal to 5% of the nominal value of the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments that constitute Principal Proceeds;

that its retention of the Retained Interest will be measured at the origination (being the occasion of each origination or acquisition of a Collateral Obligation or Eligible Investment that constitutes Principal Proceeds by the Borrower) and shall be maintained on an ongoing basis (which Retained Interest may be recalculated when the nominal value of the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments that constitute Principal Proceeds is reduced by means or repayments, prepayments, dispositions or otherwise);

that the Retained Interest shall not be subject to any credit risk mitigation or any short positions or any other hedge, unless permitted by the EU Securitisation Laws, and shall not be sold;

that it established the transaction contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

that it will invest in and hold loans, securities and other investments, excluding loans that will be sold to the Borrower, with a principal amount of not less than 20% of its invested capital (it being understood that, for this purpose, such percentage will be determined based upon the purchase price of each such investment and that the valuation of assets will fluctuate over time);

that it, either itself or through related entities (including the Borrower), directly or indirectly, was involved or will be involved in negotiating the original agreements which created or will create over 50% (measured by total nominal amount) of all the Collateral Obligations acquired (or committed to be acquired) by the Borrower, such percentage being calculated in accordance with clauses (h) and (i) of the definition of “Eligibility Criteria” in the Credit Agreement;

that in relation to every Collateral Obligation that has been or will be sold or transferred to the Borrower by it, that:

in its assessment based upon the information available to it, the criteria applied in the original credit-granting for such Collateral Obligation are as sound and well-defined as the criteria applied by it to non-securitised obligations; and

ii.

it has not selected such Collateral Obligation with the aim of rendering losses on such Collateral Obligation (measured over a period of 4 years) which are higher than the losses over the same period on comparable assets held on its own balance sheet;

that it was not established and does not operate for the sole purpose of securitizing exposures and that:

it has a business strategy and the capacity to meet payment obligations consistent with a broader business enterprise and involving material support from capital, assets, fees or other income available to the EU Retention Provider, relying neither on the exposures being securitised by it, nor on any interests retained or proposed to be retained in accordance with the EU Securitisation Laws, as well as any corresponding income from such exposures and interests;

ii.

its responsible decision makers have the required experience to enable the Retention Holder to pursue the established business strategy, as well as an adequate corporate governance arrangement;

that it will confirm in writing its continued compliance with the requirements set forth in clauses (a) through (i) above to the Borrower (who shall furnish such information to the Facility Agent for distribution to each Affected Lender):

on a monthly basis pursuant to Section 5.1(k)(iii) of the Credit Agreement (concurrent with the delivery of each Collateral Report);

ii.

upon any written request therefor by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Affected Lender delivered as a result of a material change in (x) the performance of the Senior Loans, (y) the risk characteristics of the transaction, or (z) the Collateral Obligations and/or the Eligible Investments from time to time, pursuant to Section 5.1(k)(iv) of the Credit Agreement; and

iii.

promptly upon the Borrower and/or the EU Retention Provider becoming aware of any material breach of the obligations included in any Loan Document, pursuant to Section 5.1(k)(v) of the Credit Agreement;

that it will, promptly following a request by any Affected Lender, provide a refreshed letter in substantially the form of this letter in connection with a material amendment of any Loan Document or any increase in the Commitments after the Closing Date, in each case where the Borrower has received a request for the same from an Affected Lender pursuant to Section 5.1(k)(i) of the Credit Agreement;

that it will, promptly on becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, provide a written notice to the Borrower of any failure to satisfy the EU Retention Requirement at any time pursuant to Section 5.1(k)(ii) of the Credit Agreement; and

that it will, promptly following a request by an Affected Lender, provide such additional information as such Affected Lender may reasonably request in order for such Affected Lender to comply with the EU Securitisation Laws which is either in the possession of the EU Retention Provider or can be obtained at no material cost to the EU Retention Provider.

4. The EU Retention Provider hereby agrees and confirms that it has at all times prior to the date hereof remained the 100% owner of all the membership interests in the Borrower under the LLC Agreement.

5. As used in this letter, (a) the terms “material net economic interest”, “originator”, “securitisation position”, “ongoing basis” and “nominal value” shall have the meanings given thereto in the EU Securitisation Regulation and (b) the terms “Affected Lender”, “Draft Securitisation RTS”, “EU Securitisation Regulation” and “EU Securitisation Laws” shall have the meanings given thereto in the Credit Agreement.

6. This letter shall not be assignable by the EU Retention Provider without the prior written consent of the Borrower, the Facility Agent and each Affected Lender. This letter may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the EU Retention Provider, the Borrower, the Facility Agent and each Affected Lender. This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this letter by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This letter supersedes all prior understandings, whether written or oral, between us with respect to the matters set forth herein.

7. The EU Retention Provider hereby agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by, the provisions set forth in Section 12.17 of the Credit Agreement.

8. THIS LETTER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each of the parties hereto and, by its acceptance hereof, each addressee of this letter hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, (b) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in any New York State court or in any such Federal court and (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
