The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, to be dated as of July 16, 2010 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee (the “Trustee”). The primary assets of the Issuer will be a pool of commercial middle market loans, or participation interests therein, originated or purchased by the Company (collectively, the “Collateral Obligations”).

This Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), the Master Loan Sale Agreement, the Indenture, the Collateral Management Agreement and the Collateral Administration Agreement are referred to collectively herein as the “Transaction Documents.”

Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture.

The Offered Notes are to be offered without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (i) to “qualified institutional buyers” in compliance with the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“QIBs”), (ii) in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”), and (iii) to institutional “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act) (“Institutional Accredited Investors”) who, in each case, are “qualified purchasers” (“Qualified Purchasers”) for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

In connection with the sale of the Offered Notes, the Company has prepared a preliminary offering circular dated June 24, 2010 (including any exhibits thereto and all information incorporated therein by reference, the “Preliminary Memorandum”), and a final offering circular dated July 13, 2010 (including any exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto and all information incorporated therein by reference, the “Final Memorandum”, and each of the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, a “Memorandum”) including a description of the terms of the Offered Notes, the terms of the offering, and the Issuer. It is understood and agreed that the close of business on July 15, 2010 constitutes the time of the contract of sale for each purchaser of the Offered Notes offered to the investors for purposes of Rule 159 under the Securities Act (the “Time of Sale”) and that (i) the Final Memorandum and (ii) the information set forth on Schedule II hereto constitute the entirety of the information conveyed to investors as of the Time of Sale (the “Time of Sale Information”).

It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Initial Purchaser from entering into any agency agreements, underwriting agreements or other similar agreements governing the offer and sale of securities with any issuer or issuers of securities, and nothing contained herein shall be construed in any way as precluding or restricting the Initial Purchaser’s right to sell or offer for sale any securities issued by any person, including securities similar to, or competing with, the Notes.

During each Interest Accrual Period, the Class A Notes shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the then applicable LIBOR plus 2.40% per annum and the Class B Notes shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the then applicable LIBOR plus 2.40% per annum.

Each of the Company, the Depositor and the Issuer, as applicable, hereby agrees with the Initial Purchaser as follows:

Section 2. Purchase and Sale of Offered Notes.

Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, the Issuer agrees to sell to the Initial Purchaser the Offered Notes, and the Initial Purchaser has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to place the aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes set forth on Schedule I hereto with investors in accordance with the terms hereof. If purchased, the Class A Notes will be purchased at a price of 100% and the Class B Notes will be purchased at a price of 100%. It is understood and agreed that the structuring and placement fee payable by the Issuer to the Initial Purchaser on the Closing Date with respect to the Class A Notes is $1,740,000 (1.00% of the initial principal balance of the Class A Notes) and the structuring fee payable by the Issuer to the Initial Purchaser on the Closing Date with respect to the Class B Notes is $50,000 (0.50% of the initial principal balance of the Class B Notes). Such fees payable by the Issuer may be netted by the Initial Purchaser against its purchase price payment for the Offered Notes. It is understood and agreed that the Initial Purchaser will sell all of the Class B Notes to the Depositor on the Closing Date. It is understood and agreed that the Initial Purchaser is not acquiring, and has no obligation to acquire, the Subordinated Notes (which Subordinated Notes will be acquired by the Depositor on the Closing Date pursuant to the Master Loan Sale Agreement).

In computing the amount of such contingent liabilities at any time, it is intended that such liabilities will be computed at the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

For this purpose, the term “Distribution Compliance Period” and “U.S. person” are defined as such terms are defined in Regulation S.

(f) The Initial Purchaser hereby represents that it (i) has not offered or sold, and it will not offer or sell, any Offered Notes to any Person in the United Kingdom except to (A) investment professionals as defined in Article 19 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (the “Order”) and investment personnel of the foregoing, (B) persons who fall within any of the categories of persons described in Articles 49(2)(A) to 49(2)(E) of the Order (high net worth companies, unincorporated associations, etc.) and investment personnel of the foregoing and (C) any person to whom it may otherwise lawfully be made, or otherwise in circumstances that have not resulted and will not result in an offer to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of Section 102B of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”); (ii) has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to any Offered Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; and (iii) has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any Offered Notes in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Issuer, or to persons to whom such communication may otherwise lawfully be made.

(g) In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (as defined below) (each, a “Relevant Member State”), the Initial Purchaser hereby represents and agrees that effective from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “Relevant Implementation Date”) it has not made and will not make an offer of the Offered Notes to the public in that Relevant Member State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the Offered Notes which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, except that it may, effective from and including the Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of the Offered Notes to the public in that Relevant Member State at any time:

(a) If, at any time prior to the 90th day following the Closing Date, any event involving the Company, the Depositor, the Issuer or, to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Company, the Collateral Manager shall occur as a result of which the Final Memorandum (as then amended or supplemented) would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company will immediately notify the Initial Purchaser and will cause the Issuer to prepare and furnish to the Initial Purchaser an amendment or supplement to the Final Memorandum that will correct such statement or omission. The Issuer will not at any time amend or supplement the Final Memorandum (i) prior to having furnished the Initial Purchaser with a copy of the proposed form of the amendment or supplement and giving the Initial Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to review the same or (ii) except to the extent the Company may determine it or the Issuer is required to so disclose pursuant to applicable law and after consultation with the Initial Purchaser (and, in such a circumstance, shall remove all references to the Initial Purchaser therefrom if so requested by the Initial Purchaser), in a manner to which the Initial Purchaser or its counsel shall object.

(b) During the period referred to in Section 6(a), the Company will furnish to the Initial Purchaser, without charge, copies of the Final Memorandum (including all exhibits and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Transaction Documents, and all amendments or supplements to such documents, in each case, as soon as reasonably available and in such quantities as the Initial Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request.

(e) Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, each Offered Note will contain legends in the forms set forth in the Final Memorandum.

(f) In connection with the application to list the Offered Notes on the Irish Stock Exchange, the Company will furnish from time to time any and all documents, instruments, information and commercially reasonable undertakings and publish all advertisements or other material that may be necessary in order to effect such listing and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such listing until none of such Notes is outstanding or until such time as payment of principal, interest and any additional amounts (if any) in respect of all such Notes have been duly provided for, whichever is earlier; provided that if such listing can no longer be reasonably maintained, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain the quotation for, or listing of, such Notes on such other stock exchange or exchanges in the European Union as the Initial Purchaser may reasonably request.

(g) Neither the Issuer nor any of its affiliates or any other Person acting on their behalf shall engage, in connection with the offer and sale of the Offered Notes, in any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, including, but not limited to, the following:

Section 8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company and the Issuer, jointly and severally (each an “indemnifying party” as such term is used in this Agreement), shall indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser (whether acting as Initial Purchaser or as placement agent with respect to any of the Offered Notes), its officers, directors, employees, agents and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and the affiliates of the Initial Purchaser (each an “indemnified party” as such term is used in this Agreement) from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, and any action in respect thereof, to which any indemnified party may become subject, under the Securities Act or Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Memorandum, any Additional Offering Document or the Time of Sale Information or arises out of, or is based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, and shall reimburse any such indemnified party for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnifying parties shall not be liable to any such indemnified party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Time of Sale Information, any Memorandum or any Additional Offering Document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such indemnified party specifically for inclusion therein; provided, further, that the foregoing indemnity shall not inure to the benefit of any indemnified party from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased the Offered Notes which are the subject thereof if the indemnified party sold Offered Notes to or placed Offered Notes with the person alleging such loss, claim, damage or liability without sending or giving a copy of the Time of Sale Information at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Offered Notes, if the Company shall have previously furnished copies thereof to such indemnified party and the loss, claim, damage or liability of such person results from an untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum which was corrected in the Time of Sale Information. The foregoing indemnity is in addition to any liability that the indemnifying parties may otherwise have to any indemnified party. The indemnifying parties acknowledge that the statements set forth in the Time of Sale Information and the Final Memorandum (x) under the caption: “Plan of Distribution” (but solely the second, fourth, seventh, ninth, eleventh and twelfth paragraphs under such caption) of the Final Memorandum and (y) relating to Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC in the last sentence of the first full paragraph on page iii of the Final Memorandum under the heading “Important Information Regarding Offers and Sales of the Offered Securities” constitute the only written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the indemnified parties specifically for inclusion in the Time of Sale Information, any Memorandum or any Additional Offering Document.

(b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify such indemnifying party in writing of the claim or commencement of that action, provided, however, that the failure to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party under this Section 8, except to the extent that such indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify an indemnifying party thereof, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from any such indemnifying party or parties to the indemnified party or parties of its or their election to assume the defense of such claim or action, any such indemnifying party or parties shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party or parties in connection with the defense thereof; provided that the indemnified party seeking such indemnity shall have the right to employ counsel to represent it and any other indemnified party who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim or action in respect of which indemnity may be sought by an indemnified party against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of such indemnified party, there may be legal defenses available to it and any other indemnified party different from or in addition to those available to the Company or the Issuer, or there is a conflict of interest between it and any other indemnified party, on one hand, and the Company or the Issuer, on the other, or (ii) the Company or the Issuer shall fail to select counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party or parties, and in such event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Company and the Issuer. In no event shall the Company or the Issuer be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys for all indemnified parties in connection with any other action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) does not include a statement as to, or admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any such indemnified party, and (ii) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(c) If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 shall for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party under subsection 8(a) hereof in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Issuer on the one hand (without duplication) and the Initial Purchaser on the other from the offering and sale of the Offered Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Issuer on the one hand and the Initial Purchaser on the other with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Issuer on the one hand (without duplication) and the Initial Purchaser on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering and sale of the Offered Notes (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Issuer bear (without duplication) to the total fees actually received by the Initial Purchaser with respect to such offering and sale. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Issuer or by the Initial Purchaser, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, the Issuer and the Initial Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection 8(c) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this subsection 8(c) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this subsection 8(c), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection 8(c), the Initial Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the aggregate fee actually paid to the Initial Purchaser with respect to the offering of the Offered Notes. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(d) The indemnity agreements contained in this Section 8 shall survive the delivery of the Offered Notes, and the provisions of this Section 8 shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section 9. Termination.

This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Initial Purchaser, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Offered Notes, if prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Irish Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially limited or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange shall have occurred, (ii) there shall have been, since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Time of Sale Information or the Final Memorandum, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the properties (including, without limitation, the Collateral Obligations) or the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company, the Depositor, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have been declared by either U.S. federal or New York State authorities, or (iv) there shall have occurred any material outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crises the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchaser, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Offered Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated by each Memorandum as amended or supplemented.

Section 10. Severability Clause.

Any part, provision, representation, or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered at or mailed by overnight mail, certified mail or registered mail, postage prepaid and effective only upon receipt and if sent to the Initial Purchaser, will be delivered to Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Asset-Backed Finance – Xxxxx Capital BDC 2010-1 LLC; or if sent to the Company, the Depositor or the Issuer will be delivered to such party c/x Xxxxx Capital BDC, Inc., 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxx Xxxxx Re: Xxxxx Capital BDC 2010-1 LLC, facsimile (000) 000-0000.

The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company, the Depositor, the Issuer and their respective officers and of the Initial Purchaser set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser, the Company, the Depositor, the Issuer or any indemnified party referred to in Section 8 of this Agreement, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Notes.

Section 13. Successors.

This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors by merger, consolidation or acquisition of their assets substantially as an entity and each indemnified party referred to in Section 8 of this Agreement and, except as specifically set forth herein, no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

Section 14. Applicable Law.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES).

(c) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HERETO CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON–EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO.

Section 15. Counterparts, Etc.

(a) Each of the Company, the Depositor and the Issuer acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Offered Notes pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the offering price of the Offered Notes and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Issuer, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, (ii) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction, the Initial Purchaser is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not an agent or fiduciary of the Issuer, the Company or the Depositor or any of their respective equity holders, creditors, employees or any other party, (iii) the Initial Purchaser has not assumed and will not assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Issuer, the Company or the Depositor with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising any of the Issuer, the Company or the Depositor on other matters) and the Initial Purchaser has no obligation to any of the Issuer, the Company or the Depositor with respect to the offering contemplated hereby, except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, and (iv) the Initial Purchaser has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and each of the Issuer, the Company and the Depositor has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.
