EXPENSE SUPPORT AND CONDITIONAL REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT

Exhibit (k)(5)

EXPENSE SUPPORT AND CONDITIONAL REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT

This Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made this 31st day of March, 2022, by and between NUVEEN XXXXXXXXX PRIVATE CAPITAL INCOME FUND, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Fund”), and XXXXXXXXX ASSET MANAGEMENT LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Adviser”).

WHEREAS, the Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”);

WHEREAS, the Fund has retained the Adviser to furnish investment advisory services to the Fund on the terms and conditions set forth in the investment advisory agreement, dated March 31, 2022, entered between the Fund and the Adviser, as may be amended or restated (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Fund and the Adviser have determined that it is appropriate and in the best interests of the Fund that the Adviser may elect to pay a portion of the Fund’s expenses from time to time, which the Fund will be obligated to reimburse to the Adviser at a later date if certain conditions are met.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Adviser Expense Payments to the Fund

(a) At such times as the Adviser determines, Nuveen Alternative Holdings LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser (“Nuveen Alternative Holdings”), may elect to pay certain expenses of the Fund on the Fund’s behalf (each such payment, an “Expense Payment”). In making an Expense Payment, Nuveen Alternative Holdings will designate, as it deems necessary or advisable, what type of Expense it is paying (including, whether it is paying organizational or offering expenses); provided that no portion of an Expense Payment will be used to pay any interest expense and/or shareholder servicing fees of the Fund (each, an “Expense Payment”). Such Expense Payment will be made in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds no later than forty-five days after a written commitment from Nuveen Alternative Holdings to pay such expense, and/or by an offset against amounts due from the Fund to Nuveen Alternative Holdings.

(b) The Fund’s right to receive an Expense Payment shall be an asset of the Fund upon Nuveen Alternative Holdings committing in writing to pay the Expense Payment pursuant to a notice substantially in the form of Appendix A. Any Expense Payment that Nuveen Alternative Holdings has committed to pay shall be paid by Nuveen Alternative Holdings to the Fund in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds no later than forty-five days after such commitment was made in writing, and/or offset against amounts due from the Fund to Nuveen Alternative Holdings.

2. Reimbursement of Expense Payments by the Fund

(a) Following any calendar month in which Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the Fund’s shareholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in such calendar month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), the Fund shall pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof in accordance with Sections 2(b), as applicable, to Nuveen Alternative Holdings until such time as all Expense Payments made by Nuveen Alternative Holdings to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Fund pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be referred to herein as a “Reimbursement Payment.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) the Fund’s net investment income (including net realized short-term capital gains reduced by net realized long-term capital losses), (ii) the Fund’s net capital gains (including the excess of net realized long-term capital gains over net realized short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid to the Fund on account of

investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included under clauses (i) and (ii) above).

(b) Subject to Section 2(c), the amount of the Reimbursement Payment for any calendar month shall equal the lesser of (i) the Excess Operating Funds in such quarter and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Expense Payments made by Nuveen Alternative Holdings to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month that have not been previously reimbursed by the Fund to Nuveen Alternative Holdings; provided that Nuveen Alternative Holdings may waive its right to receive all or a portion of any Reimbursement Payment in any particular calendar month, in which case such waived amount will remain unreimbursed Expense Payments reimbursable in future months pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Reimbursement Payment will be made for any month if: (i) the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share (as defined below) declared by the Fund at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is less than the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, or (ii) the Operating Expense Ratio (as defined below) at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates. For purposes of this Agreement, “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” means the annualized Date (based on a 365 day year) of regular cash distributions per share of common stock declared by the Company’s board of trustees (the "Board") exclusive of returns of capital, distribution rate reductions due to any fees (including to a transfer agent) payable in connection with distributions, and any declared special dividends or distributions. The “Operating Expense Ratio” is calculated by dividing Operating Expenses (as defined below), less organizational and offering expenses, base management and incentive fees owed to the Adviser, and interest expense, by the Fund’s net assets. “Operating Expenses” means all of the Fund’s operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

(d) The Fund’s obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Fund on the last business day of the applicable calendar month, except to the extent Nuveen Alternative Holdings has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month. In connection with any Reimbursement Payment, the Fund may deliver a notice substantially in the form of Appendix A. The Reimbursement Payment for any calendar month shall be paid by the Fund to Nuveen Alternative Holdings in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds as promptly as possible following such calendar month and in no event later than forty-five days after the end of such calendar month.

(e) All Reimbursement Payments hereunder shall be deemed to relate to the earliest unreimbursed Expense Payments made by Nuveen Alternative Holdings to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of the calendar month in which such Reimbursement Payment obligation is accrued.

3. Termination and Survival

(a) This Agreement shall become effective as of the date of this Agreement.

(b) This Agreement may be terminated, without the payment of any penalty, by the Fund or the Adviser at any time, with or without notice.

(c) This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of (i) the termination by the Fund of the Investment Advisory Agreement; (ii) the Board makes a determination to dissolve or liquidate the Fund; or (iii) upon a sale of all or substantially all of the Fund’s assets to, or a merger or other liquidity transaction with, an entity in which the Fund’s shareholders receive shares of a publicly-traded company which continues to be managed by the Adviser or an affiliate thereof.

(d) Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Section 2 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement with respect to any Expense Payments that have not been reimbursed by the Fund to Nuveen Alternative Holdings.
