B.

The Loans will be made by a newly formed entity, which will be affiliated with the Sponsor.
C. In connection with the provision of each Loan, the modified Offering will provide that investors pay to BC Manager, or a wholly-owned subsidiary thereof, a loan origination fee in an amount to be determined by BC Manager (the “Loan Origination Fee”) which Loan Origination Fee is not expected to exceed 75 basis points of the original principal amount of the Loan.
D.
