WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested to extend the maturity date under Credit Agreement on the terms set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. AMENDMENTS. Subject to the effectiveness hereof pursuant to Section 2, Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended to amend the definition of “Maturity Date” in its entirety to read as follows:
“Maturity Date” means December 19, 2021.
2. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT. This Amendment shall become effective when each of the conditions set forth in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied.

The Lender shall have received (a) a fully executed copy of this Amendment and (b) an officer’s certificate certifying resolutions of the Borrower authorizing the execution and delivery of this Amendment and the performance of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), certified as being in full force and effect without modification or amendment.
2.2 Compliance with Warranties, No Default, etc. Both before and after giving effect to this Amendment, the following statements by the Borrower shall be true and correct (and the Borrower, by its execution of this Amendment, hereby represents and warrants to the Lender that such statements are true and correct as at such times):
(a) the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or which are contained in any document furnished at any time under or in connection herewith or therewith, are true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representation or warranty qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) (except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case, as of such earlier date); and
(b) no Default has occurred and is continuing or exists on the date hereof.
2.3 Costs and Expenses. The Lender shall have received payment in immediately available funds of all costs and expenses incurred by the Lender (including the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel to the Lender) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment that have been submitted to the Borrower for payment on or prior to the date hereof.
3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. To induce the Lender to enter into to this Amendment, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender as follows:
3.1 Due Authorization, Non-Contravention, etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Amendment are within the Borrower’s powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary trustee action, and do not:
(a) contravene the Borrower’s constitutional documents; or
(b) contravene any contractual restriction, law or governmental regulation or court decree or order binding on or affecting the Borrower.

3.3 Validity, etc. This Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower (on behalf of itself and each Fund) enforceable in accordance with its terms.
4. MISCELLANEOUS.
4.1 Continuing Effectiveness, etc. From and after the date hereof, each reference to the Credit Agreement that appears in any other Loan Document shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby. The Amended Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document remain in full force and effect and each is hereby ratified, approved and confirmed in each and every respect.
4.2 Severability. Any provision of this Amendment that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Amendment or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
4.3 Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement.
