(xi) the Primary Borrower suspends, cancels, reduces, excuses, terminates or abates the Unfunded Capital Commitment of such Investor, including as a result of an Investment Exclusion Event, or a Responsible Officer of a Borrower knows that an Investor will be excused or excluded from participating in a particular Fund Investment which is being acquired in whole or in part by Loans under the Credit Facility; provided, however, that to the extent such suspension, cancellation, reduction, excuse, termination or abatement relates solely to a portion of such Investor’s Unfunded Capital Commitment, such Investor shall continue to be an Included Investor with respect to that portion of its Unfunded Capital Commitment not suspended, cancelled, reduced, excused, terminated or abated;

(xii) the Administrative Agent ceases to have a perfected first-priority security interest in the Unfunded Capital Commitment of such Investor (subject to Permitted Liens);

(xiii) such Investor becomes listed on any list published by OFAC as a Person with whom dealings are prohibited under OFAC regulations, becomes a Sanctioned Person or becomes listed on any comparable list;

(xv) (A) with respect to any Investor joining the Primary Borrower after the Closing Date that has entered into a Side Letter with the Primary Borrower, such Side Letter has been reviewed by the Administrative Agent and is unacceptable in form and substance to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion because such Side Letter contains provisions that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or (B) an Investor’s Side Letter picks up a provision from another’s Investor’s Side Letter via a “most favored nations” clause, which adversely affects the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion;

Any Excluded Investor that is a PWM Investor may be automatically replaced in the Borrowing Base by a new or existing PWM Investor that complies with the requirements set forth in Section 8.2(d).

(e) Mandatory Prepayment. The Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment:

(i) to the extent that the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations exceeds the Available Commitment (including, without limitation, as a result of an Exclusion Event);

(ii) to the extent that the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations of Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies exceeds 103% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit; or

(iii) to the extent that such mandatory prepayment is required pursuant to the terms of the LLC Agreement or other Constituent Documents of the Borrowers.

Each such prepayment shall be made in such amount as will put the Borrowers in compliance with this Section 2.1(e) and shall be made by the Required Payment Time. If any excess calculated pursuant to this Section 2.1(e) is attributable to undrawn Letters of Credit, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize such excess in the currency of the related Letter of Credit with the Administrative Agent, when required pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.1(e), as security for such portion of the Obligations. Unless otherwise required by law, upon: (i) a change in circumstances such that the circumstances described in clauses (i) or (ii) above no longer exist; or (ii) the full and final payment of the Obligations (other than contingent Obligations that have not been asserted), the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrowers any amounts remaining in said cash collateral account.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.1(e) to the contrary, in the event a mandatory prepayment has been triggered pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) of this Section 2.1(e), the Borrowers will not withdraw funds from the Collateral Accounts (with respect to amounts that constitute part of the Collateral), unless, after giving effect to such withdrawal, sufficient funds remain on deposit in the Collateral Accounts (less any amounts which do not constitute part of the Collateral) to satisfy the Borrowers’ payment obligation at the end of the Prepayment Period with respect to the related mandatory prepayment; provided that, subject to Section 9.12, nothing herein shall prevent the Borrowers from withdrawing amounts from the Collateral Accounts (x) that constitute proceeds of and distributions from Portfolio Assets and/or Fund Investments, (y) are necessary to pay reasonable Anticipated Expenses or a Permitted Distribution or (z) were subject to a call for Investor Capital Contributions made prior to the

time when the mandatory prepayment obligation specified in this subparagraph was so triggered so long as such amounts being withdrawn by the Borrowers are withdrawn within five (5) Business Days of the date when such mandatory prepayment was triggered and which are used to pay an Anticipated Expense which was committed to by the Borrowers prior to the date such mandatory prepayment was triggered.

Subject to Section 10.5(c), the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable to each affected party for any demonstrable loss resulting from any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.1(e).

2.2 Revolving Credit Commitment. On the terms set forth herein and subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.1(b) and Section 6, each Lender severally agrees, on any Business Day during the Commitment Period, to make Loans in Dollars or any Alternative Currency to the Borrowers at any time and from time to time in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to the Dollar Equivalent of such Lender’s Commitment at any such time; provided that, after making any such Loan: (a) such Lender’s Lender Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations funded by it would not exceed such Lender’s Commitment; and (b) the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations would not exceed the Available Commitment. Subject to the foregoing limitations, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 6 and the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow, repay without penalty or premium, and re-borrow hereunder, during the Commitment Period. Each Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be funded ratably by each Lender in accordance with its Lender Pro Rata Share. No Lender shall be obligated to fund any Loan if the interest rate applicable thereto under Section 2.6(a) would exceed the Maximum Rate in effect with respect to such Loan.

2.3 Manner of Borrowing.

(a) Request for Borrowing. Each Borrowing hereunder shall be made by one or more Borrowers. The applicable Borrower(s) shall give the Administrative Agent notice at the Agency Services Address of the date of each requested Borrowing hereunder, which notice may be by telephone, if confirmed in writing, facsimile, electronic mail, or other written communication (a “Request for Borrowing”), substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, and which notice shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent. Each Request for Borrowing: (i) shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (A) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of the Borrowing with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan in Dollars and (B) at least four (4) Business Days prior to the requested date of the Borrowing with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan in an Alternative Currency; (ii) shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of the Borrowing with respect to an Alternate Base Rate Loan (which shall only be available in Dollars); and (iii) must specify: (A) the amount of such Borrowing; (B) the Interest Option, if such Loan is to be funded in Dollars; (C) the Interest Period for LIBOR Rate

Loans, if applicable; (D) the currency; and (E) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day. Any Request for Borrowing received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) in respect of a LIBOR Rate Loan or 1:00 p.m. in respect of an Alternate Base Rate Loan shall be deemed to have been given by the applicable Borrower(s) on the next succeeding Business Day. Each Request for Borrowing submitted by a Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Sections 6.1 (with respect to the initial advance under this Credit Agreement), 6.2, and if applicable, 6.3 have been satisfied on and as of the date of the applicable Borrowing. No Request for Borrowing shall be valid hereunder for any purpose unless it shall have been accompanied or preceded by the information and other documents required to be delivered in accordance with this Section.

(b) Further Information. Each Request for Borrowing shall be accompanied or preceded by: (i) a Borrowing Base Certificate dated the date of such Request for Borrowing; and (ii) such documents as are required to satisfy any applicable conditions precedent as provided in Sections 6.1 (with respect to the initial advance under this Credit Agreement), 6.2, and if applicable, 6.3.

(c) Notification of Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of any Request for Borrowing.

(d) Irrevocability of Requests for Borrowing. Requests for Borrowings shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers.

(e) Lender’s Commitment. Each Lender shall make such Loan in accordance with its Lender Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.3(e) or elsewhere in this Credit Agreement to the contrary, no Lender shall be obligated to provide the Administrative Agent or any Borrower with funds in connection with a Loan in an amount that would result in the Dollar Equivalent of the Loans then funded by it plus such Lender’s Lender Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Liability exceeding its Commitment then in effect. The obligation of each Lender to remit its Lender Pro Rata Share of any such Loan requested of it shall be several from that of each other Lender, and the failure of any Lender to so make such amount available to the Administrative Agent shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder.

(f) Defaulting Lender. If, by 3:00 p.m. on any funding date, one or more Lenders (each Lender other than any Defaulting Lender being referred to as a “Non- Defaulting Lender”) fails to make its share of any Loan available to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.5 (the aggregate amount not so made available to the Administrative Agent being herein called the “Loan Deficit”), then the Administrative Agent shall, by no later than 3:30 p.m. on the applicable funding date instruct each Non- Defaulting Lender to pay, by no later than 4:00 p.m. on such date,

in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the lesser of: (i) such Non-Defaulting Lender’s proportionate share (based upon the relative Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders) of the Loan Deficit; and (ii) its unused Commitment. A Defaulting Lender shall forthwith, upon demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Non-Defaulting Lenders all amounts paid by each Non-Defaulting Lender on behalf of such Defaulting Lender, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date a payment was made by a Non-Defaulting Lender until the date such Non- Defaulting Lender has been paid such amounts in full, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

(g) [Reserved].

(h) Rollovers. No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the termination of each Interest Period (other than the Interest Period ending on the Stated Maturity Date) related to a LIBOR Rate Loan in Dollars or (ii) at least four (4) Business Days prior to the termination of each Interest Period related to a LIBOR Rate Loan in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower(s) shall give the Administrative Agent written notice at the Agency Services Address (which notice may be via fax or electronic mail) substantially in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (the “Rollover Notice”) whether it desires to renew such LIBOR Rate Loan. The Rollover Notice shall also specify the length of the Interest Period selected by the Borrower(s) with respect to such Rollover. Each Rollover Notice shall be effective upon notification thereof to the Administrative Agent. Each Rollover Notice shall be irrevocable. If the applicable Borrower(s) fails to timely give the Administrative Agent the Rollover Notice with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Borrower(s) shall be deemed to have elected to renew such Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month commencing on the expiration of the preceding Interest Period.

(i) Conversions. The Borrower(s) shall have the right, with respect to: (i) any Alternate Base Rate Loan, on any Business Day (a “LIBOR Rate Conversion Date”), to convert such Alternate Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan; and (ii) any LIBOR Rate Loan in Dollars, on any Business Day (an “Alternate Base Rate Conversion Date”) to convert such LIBOR Rate Loan to an Alternate Base Rate Loan; provided that the Borrower(s) shall, on such Alternate Base Rate Conversion Date, make the payments required by Section 4.5, if any; in either case, by giving the Administrative Agent written notice at the Agency Services Address substantially in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (a “Conversion Notice”) of such selection no later than at least either (x)11:00 a.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days prior to such LIBOR Rate Conversion Date, or (y) 1:00 p.m. (New York time) one (1) Business Day prior to such Alternate Base Rate Conversion Date, as applicable. Each Conversion Notice shall be effective upon notification thereof to the Administrative Agent and shall be irrevocable.

(j) Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no more than twenty (20) LIBOR Rate Loans may be outstanding hereunder at any one time during the Commitment Period.

(k) Administrative Agent Notification of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender (and will use good faith efforts to make such notification on the day such notice is timely received from the applicable Borrower(s)) of the receipt of a Request for Borrowing, a Conversion Notice or a Rollover Notice, the amount of the Borrowing and the amount of such Lender’s Lender Pro Rata Share of the applicable Loans, the date the Borrowing is to be made, the Interest Option selected, the Interest Period selected, if applicable, and the applicable rate of interest.

2.4 Minimum Loan Amounts. Each Loan shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than $250,000; provided that an Alternate Base Rate Loan may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of a Letter of Credit under Section 2.14(c). Any Loans in an Alternative Currency shall satisfy these minimum thresholds on a Dollar Equivalent basis.

2.5 Funding. Subject to the fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth in Section 6 of this Credit Agreement, (a) by no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time), or 3:00 p.m. (London time) for any Borrowing in an Alternative Currency, on the date specified in the related Request for Borrowing as the borrowing date, each Lender shall wire the proceeds of its ratable share of each Borrowing to the Administrative Agent at the account designated in writing by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, and (b) by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time), or 4:00 p.m. (London time) for any Borrowing in an Alternative Currency, on such date, the Administrative Agent shall (i) if the account specified in the related Request for Borrowing is maintained with the Administrative Agent, deposit such proceeds, in immediately available funds, into such account, and otherwise, (ii) initiate a wire transfer of such proceeds to the account specified in the related Request for Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to advance the proceeds of its Lender Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing required to be advanced hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to advance the proceeds of its Lender Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing required to be advanced hereunder. Absent contrary written notice from a Lender, the Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made its Lender Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the applicable borrowing date, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but is not required to), make available to the applicable Borrower(s) a corresponding amount. If a Lender fails to make its Lender Pro Rata Share of any requested Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the applicable borrowing date, then the Administrative Agent may recover the applicable amount on demand: (a) from such Lender, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for the period commencing on the date the amount was made available to the applicable Borrower(s) by the Administrative Agent and ending on (but excluding) the date the Administrative Agent recovers the amount from such Lender; or (b) if such Lender fails to pay

such amount within three (3) Business Days of the Administrative Agent’s demand, then from the Borrowers by the Required Payment Time, together with interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to the requested Borrowing for the period commencing on the borrowing date and ending on (but excluding) the date the Administrative Agent recovers the amount from the Borrowers. The liabilities and obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the performance by any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. Any payment by a Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim any such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereunder shall be liable to the Borrower(s) only for the amount of its respective Commitment.

2.6 Interest.

(a) Interest Rate. Each Loan funded by a Lender shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to: (i) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the applicable Interest Period and (ii) with respect to Alternate Base Rate Loans, the Alternate Base Rate in effect from day to day. At any time, each Loan shall have only one Interest Period and, where applicable, one Interest Option.

(b) Change in Rate; Past Due Amounts; Calculations of Interest. Each change in the rate of interest for any Borrowing consisting of Alternate Base Rate Loans shall become effective, without prior notice to the Borrowers, automatically as of the opening of business of the Administrative Agent on the date of said change. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of (i) each LIBOR Rate Loan and each Alternate Base Rate Loan (other than when the Alternate Base Rate is calculated based off of the Prime Rate) shall be calculated on the basis of the actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days and (ii) each Alternate Base Rate Loan, only when the Alternate Base Rate is calculated based off the Prime Rate, shall be calculated on the basis of the actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. If any principal of, or interest on, the Obligations is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise), then (in lieu of the interest rate provided in Section 2.6(a) above) all such overdue Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Interest shall accrue on each Loan from the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 3.4, bear interest for one day.

2.7 Determination of Rate and Billing. The Administrative Agent shall calculate each interest rate applicable to the LIBOR Rate Loans and Alternate Base Rate Loans hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrowers and to the Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and the determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent will xxxx the Borrowers on behalf of all Lenders with respect to interest on the Loans.

2.8 [Reserved.]

2.9 Addition of Qualified Borrowers and Payment of the Borrower Guaranty.

(a) An entity shall be approved as a “Qualified Borrower” hereunder if (i) the Primary Borrower shall have obtained the consent of the Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; (ii) such entity shall be one in which the Primary Borrower owns a direct or indirect ownership interest, or through which the Primary Borrower may acquire an investment, the indebtedness of which entity can be guaranteed by the Primary Borrower pursuant to the terms of its Constituent Documents; and (iii) the provisions of this Section 2.9 and Section 6.3 shall have been satisfied.

(b) Upon the satisfaction of the requirements of subsection (a) above, the entity approved as a Qualified Borrower shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Credit Agreement as if it were a Borrower hereunder.

(c) The Primary Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders an unconditional guaranty of payment in substantially the form of Exhibit I attached hereto (a “Borrower Guaranty”, and collectively with all such guaranties, the “Borrower Guaranties”), which shall be enforceable against the Primary Borrower for the payment of such Qualified Borrower’s Obligations.

(d) In the event that any Qualified Borrower has not previously done so, it shall execute and deliver a promissory note, in substantially the form of Exhibit H attached hereto (a “Qualified Borrower Promissory Note”), the payment of which is guaranteed by the Primary Borrower pursuant to a Borrower Guaranty payable to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the principal amount of its related Obligations.

(e) In consideration of the Lenders’ agreement to advance Loans to a Qualified Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3 and to accept Borrower Guaranties in support thereof, the Primary Borrower hereby authorizes, empowers, and directs the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, within the limits of the Available Commitment, to disburse directly to the Lenders, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to any Obligations due and owing by a Qualified Borrower and guaranteed by the Primary Borrower under a Borrower Guaranty together with all interest, costs and expenses and fees due to the Lenders pursuant thereto, as a Borrowing hereunder by the Primary Borrower, in the event the Administrative Agent shall have not received payment of such Obligations when due. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Primary Borrower of any disbursement made to the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such disbursement, and the Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders with notice thereof. Any such disbursement made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders shall be deemed to be

an Alternate Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.3 if in Dollars or a LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.3 if in an Alternative Currency in the amount so paid, and the Primary Borrower shall be deemed to have given to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.3 a Request for Borrowing with respect thereto; and such disbursements shall be made without regard to the minimum and multiple amounts specified in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on the Lenders as to the amount of any such Obligations due to the Lenders, absent manifest error.

(f) If a Qualified Borrower has no Obligations outstanding, such Qualified Borrower shall be permitted to withdraw from the Credit Facility as a Qualified Borrower upon ten (10) days advance written notice to the Administrative Agent, whereupon such Qualified Borrower shall have no further obligations under this Credit Agreement (except as set forth in the last sentence of this Section 2.9(f)). Upon request of such withdrawing Qualified Borrower, the Administrative Agent will return or destroy any Qualified Borrower Note issued by such Qualified Borrower. Notwithstanding any withdrawal by a Qualified Borrower, such Qualified Borrower (and the Primary Borrower pursuant to the applicable Borrower Guaranty) shall remain liable for any amounts due to the Secured Parties pursuant to Sections 4 and 12.5 of this Credit Agreement from such Qualified Borrower, which provisions shall survive any withdrawal by a Qualified Borrower and the termination of this Credit Agreement.

2.10 Use of Proceeds and Borrower Guaranties. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used by each Borrower solely for Permitted Uses. The Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any Loan to acquire a Fund Investment for which they would not be entitled under their Constituent Documents to issue Investor Capital Calls for the purpose of making such acquisition. Neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall (a) have any liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever with respect to any Borrower’s use of the proceeds of the Loans or its execution and delivery of any Borrower Guaranty, or (b) be obligated to determine whether or not any Borrower’s use of the proceeds of the Loans is for purposes permitted under the Constituent Documents of any Borrower. Nothing, including, without limitation, any Borrowing, any issuance of any Letter of Credit, any Rollover, any Conversion or acceptance of any Borrower Guaranty or other document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent as to whether any investment by any Borrower is permitted by the terms of the Constituent Documents of such Borrower or any other Borrower.

2.11 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent: (a) for the benefit of the Lenders, in consideration for the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, a non-refundable fee equal to the Applicable Margin (plus two percent (2.0%) per annum if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) on the daily face amount of each Letter of Credit, less the amount of any draws on such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the issuance date and continuing for so long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding (including, for the

avoidance of doubt, any Letter of Credit that is outstanding but has been Cash Collateralized); and (b) for the benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuer, (x) a Fronting Fee and (y) all reasonable and customary out of pocket expenses actually incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer related to the issuance, amendment or transfer of Letters of Credit upon demand by the Letter of Credit Issuer. Letter of Credit fees shall be payable in the currency of the related Letter of Credit.

2.12 Unused Commitment Fee. In addition to the payments provided for in Section 3, the Borrowers shall pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its ratable share of the Commitments, an aggregate unused commitment fee on the daily amount of the Maximum Commitment which was unused (such amount, the “Unused Portion”) at the Unused Commitment Fee Rate, calculated daily on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter. For purposes of this Section 2.12, the fee shall be calculated on an average daily basis. The Administrative Agent will xxxx the Borrowers for unused commitment fees due and payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 for all Lenders. Each of the Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the unused commitment fees payable hereunder are bona fide unused commitment fees and are intended as reasonable compensation to the Lenders for committing to make funds available to the Borrowers as described herein and for no other purposes.

2.13 Structuring Fee and Administrative Fee. The Primary Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to Bank of America, as Lender, Lead Arranger and Letter of Credit Issuer, the Structuring Fee and the Administrative Fee, each as provided in the Fee Letter.

2.14 Letters of Credit.

(a) Letter of Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on any Business Day during the Commitment Period, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall issue such Letters of Credit in Dollars or in one or more other Alternative Currencies and in such aggregate face amounts as the Borrowers may request; provided that: (i) on the date of issuance, the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations (after giving effect to the issuance of any such Letter of Credit) will not exceed the Available Commitment as of such date; (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Liability will not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; (iii) each Letter of Credit shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000; (iv) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit shall not be later than (A) twelve (12) months after the date of issuance (subject to automatic renewal for additional one year periods pursuant to the terms of the Letter of Credit Application or other documentation acceptable to the Letter of Credit Issuer) without the Letter of Credit Issuer’s consent, in its sole discretion, or (B) thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Maturity Date, or, if the Borrowers comply with Section 2.14(h), within one (1) year after the Stated Maturity Date; (v) each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98, as set forth in the Letter of Credit Application or as determined by the Letter of Credit Issuer and, to the extent

not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York; and (vi) the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after the Closing Date (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Letter of Credit Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any applicable Law applicable to the Letter of Credit Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Letter of Credit Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Letter of Credit Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Letter of Credit Issuer deems material to it, (B) the Borrowers have not provided the information necessary for the Letter of Credit Issuer to complete the form of Letter of Credit, (C) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate applicable Law or one or more policies of the Letter of Credit Issuer, or (D) the Letter of Credit Issuer does not as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency.

(b) Request. Each request for a Letter of Credit (a “Request for Letter of Credit”) shall be submitted to the Administrative Agent in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E-2 (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith), together with an application for Letter of Credit and a Borrowing Base Certificate, for the Letter of Credit Issuer, on or before 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of such Request for Letter of Credit and the terms of the requested Letter of Credit. Upon each such application, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have automatically made to the Administrative Agent, each Lender, and the Letter of Credit Issuer the following representations and warranties:

(i) As of the date of the issuance of the Letter of Credit requested, the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such issuance, with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date);

(ii) As of the date of the issuance of the Letter of Credit requested, the Letter of Credit Liability (after giving effect to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit) will not exceed the Available Commitment as of such date, and the Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Liability will not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit;

(iii) As of the date of the issuance of the Letter of Credit requested, the Letter of Credit Liability (after giving effect to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit) for Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit; and

(iv) All conditions precedent in Section 6.2 hereof for the issuance of such Letter of Credit will be satisfied as of the date of issuance.

(c) Participation by the Lenders. Each Lender shall and does hereby participate ratably with the Letter of Credit Issuer in each Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder to the extent of its Lender Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Liability with respect to each such Letter of Credit, and shall share in all rights and obligations resulting therefrom, including, without limitation: (i) the right to receive from the Administrative Agent its Lender Pro Rata Share of any reimbursement of the amount of each draft drawn under each Letter of Credit, including any interest payable with respect thereto; (ii) the right to receive from the Administrative Agent its Lender Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit fee pursuant to Section 2.11; (iii) the right to receive from the Administrative Agent its additional costs pursuant to Section 4.1; and (iv) the obligation to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, in immediately available funds, its Lender Pro Rata Share of any unreimbursed drawing under a Letter of Credit.

(d) Payment of Letter of Credit. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers agree to reimburse (either with the proceeds of a Loan as provided for in this Section or with funds from other sources), in Same Day Funds in the applicable currency, the Letter of Credit Issuer on each date on which the Letter of Credit Issuer notifies the Borrowers of the date and amount of a draft paid under any Letter of Credit for the amount of such draft so paid and any amounts representing interest, costs, expenses or fees incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such payment. Unless the Borrowers shall immediately notify the Letter of Credit Issuer that the Borrowers intend to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for such drawing from other sources or funds, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely given a Request for Borrowing to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers hereby authorize, empower, and direct the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Letter of Credit Issuer, to disburse directly, as a Borrowing hereunder, to the Letter of Credit Issuer, with notice to the Borrowers, in immediately available funds an amount equal to the stated amount of each draft drawn under each Letter of Credit plus all interest, costs and expenses, and fees due to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to this Credit Agreement. Subject to receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Lender Pro Rata Share of the amount disbursed by the Letter of Credit Issuer on the Business Day on which the Letter of Credit Issuer honors any such draft or incurs or is owed any such interest, costs, expenses or fees. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers of any such disbursements made by the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of the disbursement, and the Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders with notice thereof. Any such disbursement made by the Lenders to the Letter of Credit Issuer on account of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an Alternate Base Rate Loan; and such disbursements shall be made without regard to the minimum and multiple amounts specified in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may conclusively rely on the Letter of Credit Issuer as to the amount due the Letter of Credit Issuer by reason of any draft of a Letter of Credit or due the Letter of Credit

Issuer under any Letter of Credit Application. The obligations of a Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, and, as applicable, the obligations of the Borrowers with respect to Borrowings, each under this Section 2.14(d) shall be irrevocable, shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall, irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions to the making of any Loans described in Sections 2.1(b), 6.1, 6.2 and/or 6.3, as applicable, be honored in accordance with this Section 2.14(d) under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the terms of the Letter of Credit; (iii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit or any transferee of a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the account party and beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit); (iv) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a draw under a Letter of Credit; (v) any payment by the Letter of Credit Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (vi) any payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; (vii) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (viii) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or (ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower.

(e) Borrower Inspection. The Borrowers shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to them and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrowers’ instructions or other irregularity, the Borrowers will immediately notify the Letter of Credit Issuer. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Letter of Credit Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of Letter of Credit Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have

any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrowers’ pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Letter of Credit Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 2.14(d). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Letter of Credit Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g) Acceleration of Undrawn Amounts. Should the Administrative Agent demand payment of the Obligations hereunder prior to the Maturity Date pursuant to Section 10.2, the Administrative Agent, by written notice to the Borrowers, may take one or both of the following actions: (i) declare the obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue Letters of Credit hereunder terminated, whereupon such obligations shall forthwith terminate without any other notice of any kind; or (ii) declare the outstanding Letter of Credit Liability to be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived, and demand that the Borrowers pay to the Administrative Agent for deposit in a segregated interest-bearing cash collateral account, as security for the Obligations, an amount equal to the aggregate undrawn stated amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding at the time such notice is given. Unless otherwise required by law, upon the full and final payment of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrowers any amounts remaining in said cash collateral account.

(h) Cash Collateral. (A) If, as of the Stated Maturity Date, any Letters of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, or (B) the occurrence of any other circumstances under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents requiring the Borrowers to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit, the Borrowers shall promptly Cash Collateralize in an amount equal to Minimum Collateral Amount or, in the case of sub-clause (B) above, such amount expressly required by the terms of this Credit

Agreement or other Loan Document, to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be held by Administrative Agent as Cash Collateral subject to the terms of this clause (h) and any security agreement, control agreement and other documentation requested by the Administrative Agent to be executed in connection with opening a Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of holding such Cash Collateral. All Cash Collateral to be provided by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.14(h) shall be in currencies of the related Letters of Credit. All such Cash Collateral shall (unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent) be funded by the proceeds of Investor Capital Calls, and not from any other source. Cash Collateral held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by Administrative Agent to the reimbursement of Letter of Credit Issuer for any payment made by it of drafts drawn under the outstanding Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Letter of Credit Liability shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, of Cash Collateral held in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to this clause (h) shall be returned to the Borrowers. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral and in the Cash Collateral Account as security in respect of the Letter of Credit Liability.

(i) Lenders’ Obligations. In the event any Letter of Credit Liability is Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.14(h) or otherwise pursuant to this Credit Agreement (including but not limited to the Cash Collateralizing of a Letter of Credit outstanding beyond the Maturity Date), each Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall cease in all respects, the Lenders will no longer be entitled to receive their Lender Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit fee payable in accordance with Section 2.11 (which shall be payable exclusively to the Letter of Credit Issuer), and the Lenders shall cease to be obligated to fund any drawing under such Letter of Credit in the event the Cash Collateral is for any reason unavailable or insufficient to fully fund such drawing (including, but not limited to, as a result of any preference claim or other clawback under any proceeding pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws).

2.15 Extension of Maturity Date. The Borrowers shall have two (2) options to extend the Stated Maturity Date then in effect, in each case, for an additional term of no longer than 364 days, subject to satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

(a) (x) the Administrative Agent and the extending Lenders shall have consented in their sole discretion to such Extension Request, and (y) the Administrative Agent, the extending Lenders and the Borrowers shall have agreed to such other terms and conditions in connection with such Extension Request as may be requested by the Administrative Agent and/or such extending Lenders in their sole discretion.

(b) the Borrowers shall have paid the Extension Fee to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the extending Lenders;

(c) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date on which notice is given in accordance with the following clause (d) or on the initial Stated Maturity Date;

(d) all representations and warranties of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the initial Stated Maturity Date, with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date); and

(e) the Borrowers shall have delivered an Extension Request with respect to the Stated Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Maturity Date then in effect or such shorter time period as the Administrative Agent shall agree (which shall be promptly forwarded by the Administrative Agent to each Lender).

2.16 Increase in the Maximum Commitment.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default or Event of Default and no Default or Event of Default would result from such Facility Increase, and subject to compliance with the terms of this Section 2.16, the Borrowers may request that the Maximum Commitment be increased to an amount not to exceed $750,000,000. Such increase may be done in one or more requested increases, in $25,000,000 increments (each such increase shall be referred to herein as a “Facility Increase”).

(b) Effective Date. Within ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent may agree) of the receipt of a request from the Borrowers to increase the Maximum Commitment, the Administrative Agent shall determine the effective date of the Facility Increase, if any (the “Facility Increase Effective Date”) and, if the Administrative Agent has determined that the conditions precedent to such Facility Increase have been satisfied, shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the Facility Increase Effective Date.

(i) on the Facility Increase Effective Date, (x) an existing Lender or Lenders shall have consented in its sole discretion to increase its Commitment to support any Facility Increase, and/or (y) an additional Lender or Lenders shall have joined the Credit Facility in accordance with Section 12.11(g) and, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Commitments of such increasing and additional Lenders shall be at least equal to the amount of such Facility Increase;

(ii) the Borrowers shall, not later than the tenth (10th) Business Day, or such shorter time period as the Administrative Agent may agree, prior to the Facility

Increase Effective Date, deliver to Administrative Agent a Facility Increase Request and (x) to the extent the Maximum Commitment increase has not been previously authorized, resolutions adopted by the Borrowers approving or consenting to such increase or (y) to the extent such Maximum Commitment increase was previously authorized, copies of such prior resolutions adopted by the Borrowers approving or consenting to such increase, in each case, certified by a Responsible Officer of each Borrower that such resolutions are true and correct copies thereof and are in full force and effect;

(iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the proposed date of such Facility Increase;

(iv) all representations and warranties of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the proposed date of such Facility Increase, with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date); and

(v) on or prior to the proposed date of such Facility Increase, the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the Facility Increase Fee.

For the avoidance of doubt, any Facility Increase will be on the same terms as contained herein with respect to the Credit Facility.

Section 3. PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS

3.1 Revolving Credit Notes. The Administrative Agent may request that the Loans made under this Credit Agreement be evidenced by promissory notes in favor of each Lender. In such event, each Borrower shall execute and deliver the requested promissory notes each payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Lender in the amount up to the aggregate Commitment of such Lender. Any such note issued by the Borrowers shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith). Each Borrower agrees, from time to time, upon the request of a Lender, to reissue a new Note, in accordance with the terms and in the form heretofore provided, to such Lender, in renewal of and substitution for the Note previously issued by such Borrower to such Lender, and such previously issued Note shall be returned by such Lender to the applicable Borrowers marked “replaced”.

3.2 Payment of Obligations. The unpaid principal amount of the Obligations outstanding on the Maturity Date, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. All Loans shall be repaid in the currency in which they were borrowed.

3.3 Payment of Interest.

(a) Interest. Interest on each Borrowing and any portion thereof shall commence to accrue in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of the date of the disbursal or wire transfer of such Borrowing by the Administrative Agent consistent with the provisions of Section 2.6, notwithstanding whether any Borrower received the benefit of such Borrowing as of such date and even if such Borrowing is held in escrow pursuant to the terms of any escrow arrangement or agreement. When a Borrowing is disbursed by wire transfer pursuant to instructions received from the Borrower(s) in accordance with the related Request for Borrowing, then such Borrowing shall be considered made at the time of the transmission of the wire, rather than the time of receipt thereof by the receiving bank. With regard to the repayment of the Loans, interest shall continue to accrue on any amount repaid until such time as the repayment has been received in federal or other immediately available funds by the Administrative Agent to the Administrative Agent’s Account described in Section 3.4, or any other account of the Administrative Agent which the Administrative Agent designates in writing to the Borrowers. Interest shall be payable in the currency of the related Loan.

(b) Interest Payment Dates. Accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations shall be due and payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date and (ii) subject to Section 10.5, at all times when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time and from time to time following such default upon demand by the Administrative Agent. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

(c) Direct Disbursement. With at least three (3) Business Days (or one (1) Business Day for an Alternate Base Rate Loan or Alternate Base Rate Rollover) notice prior to any Interest Payment Date on which interest is payable hereunder by any Borrower, such Borrower may request in writing, within the limits of the Available Commitment and so long as each of the conditions specified in Section 6.2 and if applicable 6.3 have been satisfied, that the Administrative Agent disburse to the Lenders, in accordance with the terms hereof, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the interest or fees due to them from such Borrower, which disbursement shall be deemed to be a Loan pursuant to Section 2.3. Such Loan shall be either: (i) a LIBOR Rate Loan, if the applicable Lender can consolidate such Loan with an existing LIBOR Rate Loan that is then subject to a Rollover; or (ii) an Alternate Base Rate Loan, if in Dollars. Such Loan will not be subject to the minimum and multiple amount limitations in Section 2.4. If the Lenders shall not have received on the date due, any payment of interest upon any Loan or any fee described herein, the Administrative Agent may, without prior notice to or the consent of the Borrowers, following the expiration of all applicable notice and grace periods specified in Sections 10.01(a), (b) or (c), as applicable, related to the payments of such amounts,

within the limits of the Available Commitment, disburse to the Lenders, in accordance with the terms hereof, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to any interest or fees due to them, which disbursement shall be deemed to be an Alternate Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.3 if in Dollars and a LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.3 if in an Alternative Currency. After any such disbursement of funds as contemplated in this Section 3.3(c), the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver written notice of such disbursement to the applicable Borrower(s); provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent to give such notice will not affect the validity of such disbursement.

3.4 Payments on the Obligations. All payments of principal of, and interest on, the Obligations under this Credit Agreement by the Borrowers to or for the account of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense or recoupment by any Borrower for receipt by the Administrative Agent before 12:00 p.m. (New York time) or 2 p.m. (London time) for all payments made in an Alternative Currency, on the due date therefor in federal or other immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at account number 4426457864 at Bank of America, N.A., ABA No. 000000000, reference “Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Private Middle Market Credit LLC, Attention: Xxxxxx Xxxxx”, or any other account of the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent designates in writing to the Borrowers. Funds received after 12:00 p.m. (New York time) or 2 p.m. (London time) for all payments made in an Alternative Currency on the due date therefor shall be treated for all purposes as having been received by the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day next following receipt of such funds. Except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 3.4, each Lender shall be entitled to receive its ratable share of each payment received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders on the Obligations. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of a Lender shall be promptly distributed by the Administrative Agent to such Lender by 1:00 p.m. (New York time) or 3 p.m. (London time) for all payments made in an Alternative Currency. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in calculating interest or fees, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agrees that payments to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers of principal of, and interest on, the Obligations to or for the account of the Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall constitute satisfaction of the Borrowers’ obligations with respect to any such payments, and the Administrative Agent shall indemnify, and each Lender shall hold harmless, the Borrowers from any claims asserted by any Lender in connection with the Administrative Agent’s duty to distribute and apportion such payments to the Lenders in accordance with this Section 3.4. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments made on the Obligations shall be credited as directed by the Borrowers. At all times when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments made on the Obligations shall be credited, to the extent of the amount thereof, in the following manner: (a) first, against all costs, expenses and other fees (including attorneys’ fees) payable by any of the Borrowers under the terms of the Loan Documents; (b) second, against the amount of

interest accrued and unpaid on the Obligations as of the date of such payment; (c) third, against all principal due and owing on the Obligations as of the date of such payment; and (d) fourth, to all other amounts constituting any portion of the Obligations.

3.5 Voluntary Prepayments. Each Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that: (a) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent by no later than: (i) 11:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans (other than Daily LIBOR Loans) denominated in Dollars, (ii) 11:00 a.m. four (4) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency and (iii) 1:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Alternate Base Rate Loans or Daily LIBOR Loans; and (b) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a principal amount of $250,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the Dollar Equivalent Amount thereof) or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such prepayment and the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of such Lender’s Lender Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by a Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment, and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Each prepayment of a Loan shall be applied to the Obligations held by each Lender in accordance with its respective Lender Pro Rata Share.

3.6 Reduction or Early Termination of Commitments. So long as no Request for Borrowing or Request for Letter of Credit is outstanding, the Borrowers may terminate the Commitments, or reduce the Maximum Commitment, by giving prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent of such termination or reduction three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (which date shall be specified by the Borrowers in such notice): (a) (i) in the case of complete termination of the Commitments, upon prepayment of all of the outstanding Obligations, including, without limitation, all interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of Section 3.5; or (ii) in the case of a reduction of the Maximum Commitment, upon prepayment of the amount, if any, by which the Principal Obligations exceed the reduced Available Commitment resulting from such reduction, including, without limitation, payment of all interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of Section 3.5; provided that, the Maximum Commitment may not be terminated or reduced such that, the Available Commitment would be less than the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate stated amount of outstanding Letters of Credit; and (b) in the case of the complete termination of the Commitments, if any Letter of Credit Liability exists, upon payment to the Administrative Agent of the Cash Collateral (from the proceeds of Investor Capital Calls only, unless agreed otherwise by the Administrative Agent) for deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Section 2.14(h), without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (1) any reduction of the Maximum Commitment shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (2) in no event

shall a reduction by the Borrowers reduce the Maximum Commitment to less than $50,000,000 (except for a termination of all the Commitments). Promptly after receipt of any notice of reduction or termination, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the same. Any reduction of the Maximum Commitment shall reduce the Commitments of the Lenders on a pro rata basis.

3.7 Lending Office. Each Lender may: (a) designate its principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender as its lending office (its “Lending Office”) (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any Type of Loan and (b) change its Lending Office for any Type of Loan from time to time by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. In such event, the Administrative Agent shall hold the Notes, if any, evidencing such Lender’s Loans for the benefit and account of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate. Each Lender shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment in any manner it deems appropriate, consistent with the provisions of Section 2.5.

Section 4. TAXES; CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

4.1 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.1) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify each Recipient, by the Required Payment Time after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.1) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,

whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, that if the Recipient requests indemnification more than one-hundred and eighty (180) calendar days after the earlier of (i) the date on which such Recipient makes such payment of Indemnified Taxes or liability arising therefrom or with respect thereto and (ii) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority or other party makes written demand upon such Recipient for payment of such Indemnified Taxes or liability arising therefrom or with respect thereto, such Recipient shall not be indemnified to the extent such delay results in prejudice to the Borrower. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability setting forth the calculation of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Tax Indemnification by the Lenders. Without prejudice to, or duplication of, Section 11.7, each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.11(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 4.1(d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 4.1, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Prescribed Forms. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the

applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements, or to comply with any such requirement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.1(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9, or applicable successor form, certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or applicable successor form, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to such tax treaty;

(ii) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, or applicable successor form;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the

Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or applicable success form; or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, or applicable successor form, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-2 or Exhibit N-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed 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 such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), then such Lender shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower

or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.1(f)(ii)(D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Credit Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Selection of Lending Office. If any Lender requires any Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.1, then such Lender shall, at the request of the Borrowers, use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.1 in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party 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 pursuant to this Section 4.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.1 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the written request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 4.1(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.1(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to

pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.1(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 4.1(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Defined Terms. For purpose of this Section 4.1, the term “Lender” includes the Letter of Credit Issuer and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(j) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

4.2 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans or other Obligations, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any other Alternative Currency or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Loans or the Obligations or to convert Loans accruing interest calculated by reference to the LIBOR Rate (whether denominated in Dollars or any other Alternative Currency) to be Loans calculated by reference to the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Alternate Base Rate is also calculated off the LIBOR Rate in accordance with the definition thereof), shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon the prepayment of any such Loans, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

4.3 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent determines, for any proposed Interest Period, that: (a) deposits (whether in Dollars or any other Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of any LIBOR Rate Loan; (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate; or (c) the LIBOR Rate does not adequately or fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or any other Alternative Currency), then: (a) the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Lenders and the Borrowers; and (b) while such circumstances exist, none of the Lenders shall allocate any Loans made during such period, or reallocate any Loans allocated to any then-existing Interest Period ending during

such period, to an Interest Period with respect to which interest is calculated by reference to the LIBOR Rate. If, with respect to any outstanding Interest Period, a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that it is unable to obtain matching deposits in the London interbank market to fund its purchase or maintenance of such Loans or that the LIBOR Rate applicable to such Loans will not adequately reflect the cost to the Person of funding or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, then: (i) the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders; and (ii) upon such notice and thereafter while such circumstances exist, the applicable Lender shall not make any LIBOR Rate Loans during such period, or reallocate any Loans allocated to any Interest Period ending during such period, to an Interest Period with respect to which interest is calculated by reference to the LIBOR Rate; provided that, (x) if the forgoing notice relates to Loans that are outstanding as LIBOR Rate Loans, such Loans shall be Converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans only on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, and (y) upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any outstanding Requests for Borrowing.

4.4 Increased Cost and Capital Adequacy.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If after the Closing Date (or with respect to a Person first becoming a Lender after the Closing Date, the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date such Person first becomes a Lender) (x) the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof, (y) any guidance, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (z) compliance, application or implementation by any Affected Party with the foregoing subclauses (x) or (y) or any Existing Law:

(i) imposes or modifies any reserve, fee, tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, any liabilities of or any credit extended by, any of the Affected Party in respect of or in connection with this Credit Agreement;

(ii) has the effect of reducing an Affected Party’s rate of return in respect of this Credit Agreement on such Affected Party’s capital to a level below that which such Affected Party would have achieved but for the occurrences set forth in subsection (a) of this Section 4.4 herein;

(iii) affects or would affect the amount of the capital required to be maintained by such Affected Party; or

(iv) causes an internal capital or liquidity charge or other imputed cost to be assessed upon such Affected Party, which in the sole discretion of such Affected Party is allocable to the Borrower or to the transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to impose a cost on, or increase the cost to, any Affected Party of its commitment under any Loan Document or of purchasing, maintaining or funding any interest acquired under any Loan Document, then, upon written demand, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Affected Party such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such new or increased cost.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Credit Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) or causes an internal capital or liquidity charge or other imputed cost to be assessed upon such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, which in such party’s sole discretion is allocable to the Borrowers or to the transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement, then from time to time upon written request of such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of an Affected Party setting forth with reasonable supporting detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Party as specified in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 4.4 shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate by the Required Payment Time.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred and eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

4.5 Funding Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrowers shall promptly pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for, and hold such Lender harmless from, any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds from third parties as a result of (a) any failure or refusal of the Borrowers (for any reasons whatsoever other than a default by the Administrative Agent or any Lender) to take a Loan after the Borrowers shall have requested such Loan under the Credit Agreement (whether pursuant to Section 2.3 or otherwise), (b) any prepayment or other payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (whether pursuant to Section 2.1(e) or otherwise), (c) any other prepayment of a Loan that is otherwise not made in compliance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, or (d) the failure of the Borrowers to make a prepayment of a Loan after giving notice under the Credit Agreement, that such prepayment will be made.

4.6 Requests for Compensation.

(a) If requested by the Borrowers in connection with any demand for payment pursuant to this Section 4 (other than Section 4.1), a Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide to the Borrowers, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand, the amount required to be paid by the Borrowers to such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer and the computations made by such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer to determine such amount, such certificate to be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. Any such amount payable by the Borrowers shall not be duplicative of any amounts (a) previously paid under this Section 4, or (b) included in the calculation of LIBOR.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4 (other than Section 4.1), (i) no Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall be entitled to compensation under this Section 4 (other than Section 4.1), for any costs incurred or reductions suffered by such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer (or its holding company) because of a Change of Law unless at such time such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer (or its holding company) is acting in a similar manner with respect to its similarly-situated

borrowers (it being understood that such claims between similarly situated borrowers may be different after consideration of facility pricing, structure, usage patterns, capital treatment and banking relationship).

4.7 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 4 shall survive and remain in full force and effect for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.7 shall not apply with respect to amounts payable under Section 4.1.

Section 5. SECURITY

5.1 Liens and Security Interest.

(a) Collateral. Subject to the terms of the applicable Collateral Documents, to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations hereunder, pursuant to a Collateral Account Pledge, a Borrower Security Agreement, the related financing statements and the other related documents, the Primary Borrower shall grant, and shall pledge and assign by way of security, to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties, as applicable, a first priority, security interest and Lien in and on its interests in the following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising:

(i) any and all Unfunded Capital Commitments of the Investors, whether now or hereafter committed, including but not limited to the right to draw down Investor Capital Contributions on such Unfunded Capital Commitments from such Investors and to issue Investor Capital Calls with respect thereto;

(ii) to the extent relating to the Unfunded Capital Commitments of the Investors constituting Collateral in clause (i) above, (x) the Constituent Documents, (y) the Subscription Agreements and Side Letters, if any, of such Investors and (z) any and all guaranties of such Investors’ obligations under the Constituent Documents and Subscription Agreements including but not limited to, in each case of clauses (x), (y) and (z), any and all representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements of such Investors or guarantors contained therein, any and all duties and obligations of such Investors or guarantors thereunder and any and all rights to compel performance and enforce the provisions thereof against such Investors or guarantors and otherwise pursue remedies against such Investors or guarantors with respect thereto;

(iii) any and all agreements, instruments and other documents of every kind or description to the extent evidencing or supporting obligations under any of the foregoing Collateral and any and all security and other property with respect to such Collateral;

(iv) each Collateral Account, including but not limited to any and all funds and financial assets on deposit therein or credited thereto; and

(v) any and all proceeds of any of the foregoing Collateral including, without limitation, all of the records of the Primary Borrower (as the case may be) concerning any of the foregoing Collateral; excluding (A) any funds properly withdrawn from a Collateral Account (or that could be withdrawn pursuant to the Credit Agreement if deposited or credited to a Collateral Account) to the extent used (other than Permitted Investments deposited in or credited to any such account) for a purpose permitted under the LLC Agreement and this Credit Agreement, and (B) the proceeds of such withdrawn funds (the items in (A) and (B), collectively “Excluded Proceeds”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (i) the term “Collateral” shall not include the Unfunded Capital Commitments of the SOX Insiders, including but not limited to the right to draw down Investor Capital Contributions on such Unfunded Capital Commitments, or any other interests of the SOX Insiders, if any, unless so elected by the Primary Borrower in its discretion, (ii) the term “Collateral” shall not include any Fund Investment, any Portfolio Assets or any Excluded Proceeds, (iii) the term “Collateral” shall not include any collateral posted or received in connection with the Swap Agreements, (iv) the Collateral may be subject to Permitted Liens, (v) a Borrower may maintain other bank accounts or securities accounts in addition to the Collateral Accounts that will not be considered “Collateral” and such other accounts shall not be subject to control agreements or other restrictions and (vi) the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall not have any Lien on any property that is not “Collateral” except in connection with any Swap Agreement, as provided therein.

(b) Guaranties of Credit Providers and Side Letters. Each Included Investor shall provide, if such Investor would not be an Included Investor but for the guaranty or other Credit Link Documents of its Credit Provider as contemplated in the definition of “Credit Provider”, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of such guaranty or other Credit Link Documents. The Administrative Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to approve or disapprove any Side Letter with respect to a proposed Included Investor within ten (10) Business Days after receipt from the Borrowers.

(c) Reliance. Each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent and each Lender has entered into this Credit Agreement, extended credit hereunder and at the time of each Borrowing or each issuance of a Letter of Credit, will make such Borrowing or issuance of such Letter of Credit in reasonable reliance on the obligations of the Investors to fund their respective Unfunded Capital Commitments and accordingly during the continuance of an Event of Default (but subject to

Section 10.5), such Unfunded Capital Commitments may be enforced in the name of such Borrower by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents in accordance with the LLC Agreement, Subscription Agreements and Side Letters, directly against the Investors without further action by any Borrower and notwithstanding any compromise of any such Unfunded Capital Commitment by any Borrower, as provided in 6 Del. C. §17-502(b)(1).

The collateral security set forth in subsection (a) of this Section 5.1 shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral”. The security agreements, assignments, collateral assignments and any other documents and instruments from time to time executed and delivered pursuant to this Credit Agreement to grant a security interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, the Security Agreements, the Collateral Account Pledges, the Control Agreement, and any documents or instruments amending or supplementing the same, shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral Documents”.

5.2 Required Accounts; Investor Capital Calls.

(a) Required Accounts.

(i) Each Borrower shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish, one or more Collateral Accounts, as applicable, and shall direct all Investor Capital Contributions received by such Borrower, as applicable, into such Collateral Accounts (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that (i) subject to compliance with Section 9.12, the Borrowers may maintain other accounts into which Investor Capital Contributions may be transferred from the Collateral Accounts and (ii) such other accounts will not constitute Collateral and will not be subject to the control of the Administrative Agent or any other restrictions under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents). Each Borrower shall deposit any Investor Capital Call proceeds received otherwise into the applicable Collateral Account within five (5) Business Days after receipt. Each Collateral Account shall be a deposit account or a securities account (as defined in the UCC or substantial equivalent under foreign law) established with an Eligible Institution, as deposit bank or securities intermediary, in the name of the applicable Borrower into which financial assets may be credited and as to which such Eligible Institution, as deposit bank or securities intermediary, undertakes to treat the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise such deposit account or financial assets in accordance with the terms of the Control Agreement. If such deposit bank or securities intermediary ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the applicable Borrower will have thirty (30) days following notice from the Administrative Agent to move the Collateral Accounts to another Eligible Institution reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders. If the deposit bank or securities intermediary terminates the Control Agreement, the applicable Borrower shall open new accounts that are subject to a Control Agreement with

a replacement deposit bank or securities intermediary, which is an Eligible Institution, within thirty (30) days of such termination.

(ii) The Borrowers shall cause each Collateral Account to be subject at all times to a Control Agreement pursuant to which the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall be entitled to assume exclusive control thereof upon notice to that effect to the applicable Eligible Institution; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not deliver any such notice unless a Cash Control Event has occurred and is continuing. Each Collateral Account shall continue to be held in the name of the applicable Borrower after the Administrative Agent has assumed exclusive control thereof. All monies, instruments, investment property or other property credited to the Collateral Accounts pursuant to this Credit Agreement and all other property credited to the Collateral Accounts constitute part of the Collateral (including all cash and Permitted Investments) (other than Excluded Proceeds) and shall be applied in the manner set forth herein.

For purposes of repaying the Obligations, the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize and direct the Secured Parties, acting through the Administrative Agent, to charge from time to time the Collateral Accounts of the Borrowers for amounts not paid by any Borrower when due to the Secured Parties (after the passage of any applicable grace period provided in Section 10.1 and Section 3.3(c)) (excluding any amounts therein which are not part of the Collateral); provided that promptly after any disbursement of funds from any such account to the Secured Parties, as contemplated

in this Section 5.2(c), the Administrative Agent shall deliver a written notice of such disbursement to the Borrowers. Subject to Section 10.2 and Section 10.5 in all respects, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, is hereby authorized, in the name of the Secured Parties or the name of any Borrower, at any time or from time to time during the continuance of an Event of Default, solely for the purpose of repaying the Obligations, to: (i) initiate one or more Investor Capital Calls in order to pay the Obligations then due and owing; (ii) take or bring in any Borrower’s name, or that of the Secured Parties, all steps, actions, suits, or proceedings deemed by the Administrative Agent necessary or desirable to effect possession or collection of payments of the Unfunded Capital Commitments; (iii) complete any contract or agreement of any Borrower in any way related to payment of any of the Unfunded Capital Commitments; (iv) make allowances or adjustments related to any of the Unfunded Capital Commitments; (v) compromise any claims related to any of the Unfunded Capital Commitments; (vi) issue credit in its own name or the name of any Borrower; or (vii) exercise any other right, privilege, power, or remedy provided to any Borrower under any Constituent Documents or Subscription Agreement with respect to Unfunded Capital Commitments.

The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrowers notice of actions taken pursuant to this Section 5.2(c) concurrently with, or promptly after, the taking of such action, but its failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such action, nor shall such failure give rise to defenses to the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder.

(d) Additional Action by the Administrative Agent. Subject to Section 10.2 and Section 10.5 in all respects, during the existence of an Event of Default, issuance by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, of a receipt to any Person obligated to pay any Investor Capital Contribution with respect to the Unfunded Capital Commitments for the purposes of repaying the Obligations shall be a full and complete release, discharge, and acquittance of such Person to the extent of any amount so paid to the Collateral Accounts for the benefit of the Secured Parties, so long as such amounts shall not be invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any insolvency law, state or federal law, common law or equitable doctrine. Subject to Section 10.5 in all respects, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, pursuant to one or more pledges, is hereby authorized and empowered, during the existence of an Event of Default, on behalf of the Primary Borrower to endorse the name of the Primary Borrower upon any check, draft, instrument, receipt, instruction, or other document or items, including, but not limited to, all items evidencing payment

The Borrowers agree that they will ensure that such Investor Capital Contribution amounts are then credited to the applicable Collateral Accounts of the Primary Borrower when called in accordance with the terms of the Constituent Documents and the terms hereof.

5.3 Lender Offset. In addition to the rights granted to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties under Section 5.2, each Borrower hereby grants to each Secured Party a right of offset to secure the repayment of the aggregate Obligations when due to the Secured Parties (solely after the passage of any applicable grace period and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement), upon any and all monies, securities, or other

property of such Borrower, and the proceeds therefrom, now or hereafter held or received by or in transit to the Secured Parties, from or for the account of such Borrower, as applicable, whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection, or otherwise, and also upon any and all deposits (general or specified) and credits of such Borrower and any and all claims of such Borrower, against the Secured Parties at any time existing.

(b) If the transferring Investor is an Included Investor and is being released from its obligations to make Investor Capital Contributions with respect to its Unfunded Capital Commitment, the Borrowers shall, prior to the effectiveness of any such Transfer, calculate whether any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.1(e) will result from such Transfer (due to the transferee Investor not being designated as an Included Investor or otherwise) and, if such a mandatory prepayment would be required (calculated after giving effect to such Transfer), the Borrowers shall (i) provide the Administrative Agent with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of such Transfer and provide to the Administrative Agent such information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in order to help the Administrative Agent determine if the transferee will qualify as an Included Investor (provided that such information is available to the Borrowers and is not otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions between the Primary Borrower and such Investor or the transferee) and (ii) either: (x) prior to the effective date of such Transfer, pay to the Lenders the amount, if any, of such mandatory prepayment (for the avoidance of doubt, any such prepayment shall not be subject to Section 3.5, but shall be subject to Section 4.5) or (y) prior to the effective date of such Transfer, receive the approval of the transferee as an Included Investor from the Administrative Agent so that no mandatory prepayment will be required in connection with the Transfer.

If the Borrowers are unable to deliver sufficient information to the Administrative Agent to enable the Administrative Agent to determine whether such transferee Investor satisfies the requirements of an Included Investor prior to such effective date, then such transferee Investor shall be deemed not to have satisfied such requirements until such time as the Administrative Agent can make such determination.

(c) With respect to any transferee Investor which is an existing Included Investor, the amount of the resulting increase in such transferee Investor’s Unfunded Capital Commitment shall not be included in the Borrowing Base until such transferee Investor has delivered to the Primary Borrower written confirmation of its obligations under its Subscription Agreement (and any applicable Side Letter) with respect to its Unfunded Capital Commitment, as increased by such Transfer.

seeks to Transfer a portion of its Investor Capital Commitment to a new or existing PWM Investor (x) the Borrowers must deliver a copy of the new or existing PWM Investor’s Subscription Agreement (to the extent not already received) together with all documents evidencing such transfer to the Escrow Agent (including the contact information for each such transferee in form and substance sufficient to permit the Administrative Agent to make an Investor Capital Call on such Investors), and the Escrow Agent must certify receipt of the same to the Administrative Agent, and (y) unless (A) a mandatory prepayment would be required or such Transfer involves Investor Capital Commitments in an amount greater than 3% of the aggregate Investor Capital Commitments (calculated after giving effect to such Transfer) or (B) the aggregate Investor Capital Commitments decrease after giving effect to such Transfer, such new or existing transferee PWM Investor shall, without any prior notice to the Administrative Agent, automatically be an Included Investor for all purposes of this Credit Agreement with respect to the transferred Investor Capital Commitment from the effective date of such transfer (notwithstanding that the actions described in clause (x) of this Section 8.2(d) have not occurred) so long as such new or existing transferee is otherwise in compliance with the definition of “Included Investor”; provided that if the Escrow Agent does not provide the certification described in clause (x) of this Section 8.2(d) to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of the effective date of such transfer, such PWM Investor shall become an Excluded Investor from and after such thirtieth (30^th) day until the Administrative Agent receives such certification.

(e) Upon the effectiveness of any Transfer of an Institutional Investor interest in the Primary Borrower, the Borrowers shall promptly deliver a revised Exhibit A to the Administrative Agent.

(f) The provisions of this Section 8.2 shall not apply to a transfer by any Investor that is an Affiliate of the Primary Borrower, which transfers shall be governed by Section 9.5(b).

The Primary Borrower shall not change its fiscal year without prior notice to the Administrative Agent or change its method of accounting other than in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement (so long as such method is based on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles).

9.4 LLC Agreement and Related Documents.

(a) Except as hereinafter provided, the Borrowers shall not alter, amend, modify, terminate, or change any provision of the LLC Agreement, any Subscription Agreements, certificate of formation, Investment Management Agreement or private placement memorandum if any such Proposed Amendment (hereinafter defined) would (i) affect the Primary Borrower’s or its Investors’ debts, duties, obligations, and liabilities, or the rights, titles, security interests, Liens, powers and privileges of the Primary Borrower, in any case, relating to any Investor Capital Calls, Investor Capital Commitments, Investor Capital Contributions or the shortening of the time period during which they are available, or, except as permitted by this Credit Agreement, suspend, reduce or terminate any Investor’s Unfunded Capital Commitment or that could otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect on the rights, titles, first priority security interests and Liens, and powers and privileges of the Lenders hereunder; or (ii) permit or allow any Borrower to purchase Portfolio Assets or otherwise make investments, or engage in any line of business, that are materially different from the Portfolio Assets or lines of business permitted by such Borrower’s Constituent Documents as in effect on the Closing Date (each a “Material Amendment”). With respect to any proposed alteration, amendment, modification, termination or change (each, a “Proposed Amendment”) to the LLC Agreement, Subscription Agreement, certificate of formation of any Borrower, Investment Management Agreement or private placement memorandum, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such proposal. The Administrative Agent shall determine, in its sole reasonable discretion (i.e., the determination of the other Lenders shall not be required) and on its

good faith belief, whether such Proposed Amendment to the LLC Agreement, Subscription Agreement or certificate of formation of any Borrower, Investment Management Agreement or private placement memorandum would constitute a Material Amendment within five (5) Business Days of the date on which it is deemed to have received such notification in accordance with Section 12.6 and shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower of its determination. If the Administrative Agent determines that the Proposed Amendment is a Material Amendment, the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders will be required, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such request for such approval, distributing, as appropriate, the Proposed Amendment and any other relevant information provided by such Borrower; subject to Section 12.1, the Lenders shall have five (5) Business Days from the date of such notice from the Administrative Agent to deliver their approval or denial thereof. If the Administrative Agent determines that the Proposed Amendment is not a Material Amendment, the applicable Borrower may make such amendment without the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Borrower may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, amend its applicable Constituent Documents or private placement memorandum: (w) to extend the investment period or the structuring of the investments, including as primary investments, co-investments, direct investments or secondary investments, (x) to admit new Investors or remove Investors in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement; (y) to reflect transfers of interests in such Borrower which are permitted by this Credit Agreement; and (z) to implement any action permitted under Section 9.6; provided that such Borrower shall promptly provide to the Administrative Agent a copy of any such amendment which does not require the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders.

(b) The Borrowers shall use good faith efforts to provide the Administrative Agent with at least five (5) Business Days’ notice of any amendment or modification of any Side Letter. In the event that the Lender is unable to approve such amendment or modification and a mandatory prepayment would be required pursuant to Section 2.1(e) as a result of such amendment or modification, the Borrowers shall make such mandatory prepayment prior to the effectiveness of such amendment or modification. Thereafter, upon the request of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall consider for approval the applicable Side Letter, as amended or modified, in accordance with the standards set forth in the definition of “Included Investor” and in the event the Administrative Agent approves such Side Letter, as amended or modified, any Exclusion Event which resulted from such amendment or modification shall be deemed to be cured.

9.5 Admission of Investors; Transfers of Affiliate Interests; Investor Withdrawals.

(a) Admission of New Investors. The Primary Borrower shall not admit any Person that is an assignee of an interest in the Primary Borrower as a substitute

Investor or any other Person as a new Investor unless such Person is not listed on any list published by OFAC as a Person with whom dealings are prohibited under OFAC regulations, not a Sanctioned Person and not listed on any comparable list and admission is in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement, Subscription Agreement and any Side Letter. Any such new Investor or existing transferee Investor shall not be included in the Borrowing Base or shall not have the increased portion of its Investor Capital Commitment included in the Borrowing Base, (v) in the case of any PWM Investor who is an Included Investor that seeks to be replaced by a new or existing PWM Investor or seeks to Transfer a portion of its Investor Capital Commitment to a new or existing PWM Investor, except in compliance with Section 8.2(d) (including the thirty (30) day deemed automatic inclusion as an Included Investor), (w) in the case of any PWM Investor (other than under the circumstances addressed in the foregoing clause (v)), until the Borrowers have delivered a copy of such Investor’s Subscription Agreement or assignment agreement to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent has certified its receipt thereof to the Administrative Agent, (x) in the case of any assignee Institutional Investor, except in compliance with Section 8.2(b), (y) in the case of any new Institutional Investor (other than under the circumstances addressed in the foregoing clause (x)) until the Borrowers have delivered a copy of such Institutional Investor’s Subscription Agreement or assignment agreement, any applicable Side Letter (redacted as applicable) entered into with such Person and, a revised Exhibit A to the Administrative Agent, and (z) in the case of any Investor that is an existing Included Investor increasing its Investor Capital Commitment, until the Borrowers have delivered a copy of the written confirmation received from such Investor described in Section 8.2(c) to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Other Transfers of Unfunded Capital Commitments. None of the Borrowers shall permit any Investor Capital Contributions to be made to any other Affiliate of a Borrower that is not a Borrower hereunder or directly to any Fund Investment, unless such Affiliate has executed documentation to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent providing a first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in such transferred Investor Capital Commitments ultimately to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

9.6 Capital Commitments. None of the Borrowers shall permit any withdrawal, termination, reduction, suspension, excuse, formal waiver or other cancellation with respect to an obligation of any Investor (other than the SOX Insiders) under its Subscription Agreement or the LLC Agreement or any Side Letter without the prior written consent of the Lenders which may be withheld in their reasonable discretion, unless (A) the Investor Capital Commitment and other obligations of such Investor are assumed by another Investor in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement and the applicable Constituent Document or (B) with respect to no more than five percent (5%) of the aggregate Investor Capital Commitments, if the Investor Capital Commitments of such Investors are not Included Investors and hence not included in the Borrowing Base. The Primary Borrower covenants

and agrees that if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and to the extent the same has not already been delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Primary Borrower shall promptly, but in no event later than (x) two (2) Business Days in the case of the Institutional Investors, and (y) seven (7) Business Days in the case of the PWM Investors deliver to the Administrative Agent true, correct and complete copies of each such notice described in the preceding sentence. The Borrowers may designate any Included Investor to not be considered an Included Investor for all purposes under this Credit Agreement (and thus not included in the Borrowing Base) by written notice to the Administrative Agent, provided that the Borrowers may thereafter re-include such Investor as an Included Investor (and thus included in the Borrowing Base) with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Prior to giving effect to any termination, suspension, cancellation, reduction, excuse or waiver pursuant to this Section 9.6, or any withdrawal or transfer pursuant to this Section 9.6 (other than a Transfer by an Investor of all or a portion of its interest in the Primary Borrower, which (for the avoidance of doubt) the parties acknowledge is governed by Section 8.2 rather than this Section 9.6), the Available Commitment will be calculated, and if such action would result in a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.1(e), such prepayment shall be made prior to the effectiveness of such withdrawal, termination, suspension, transfer, cancellation, reduction, excuse or waiver.

9.7 ERISA Compliance. None of the Borrowers shall establish, maintain or have any liability to any Plan. No Borrower shall fail to satisfy an exception under the Plan Asset Regulations which failure causes the assets of any such Borrower to be deemed Plan Assets.

9.8 Dissolution. Other than in compliance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement, without the prior written consent of all Lenders (in their sole discretion), none of the Borrowers shall take any action to terminate or dissolve any Borrower.

9.9 [Reserved.]

9.10 Limitations on Distributions. None of the Borrowers shall make, pay or declare any Distribution (as defined below) (i) at any time except as permitted pursuant to its Constituent Documents and (ii) other than Permitted Distributions, at any time during the existence of an Event of Default or at any time during, to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of such Person or the Administrative Agent (provided that to the extent the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge of any such event it will provide prompt notice thereof to the applicable Person, provided further that the giving of such notice by the Administrative Agent or the failure to give such notice, will not affect such Person’s obligations under this section), a Default; provided that during the existence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10.1(j) or 10.1(k) or upon the acceleration of the unpaid balance of the Obligations of the Borrowers pursuant to Section 10.2 none of the Borrowers shall make, pay or declare any Permitted RIC Distribution. “Distribution” means any dividend or distributions (whether or not in cash) on account of any partnership interest, membership interest or other equity interest in a Borrower, including as a dividend or other distribution and on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement or other acquisition of any such

100

partnership interest, membership interest or other equity interest (it being acknowledged that the Investment Adviser and any Affiliates exercising control over the Primary Borrower shall be entitled to receive any fees payable to it pursuant to the Constituent Documents or agreements of the Primary Borrower but solely to the extent such fees are paid from sums or monies not constituting Collateral).

9.11 Limitations on Indebtedness. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no Borrower shall incur any Indebtedness other than:

(i) Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this Credit Agreement;

(ii) secured and unsecured Indebtedness under Swap Agreements, provided that, in each case, such Indebtedness is not secured by any Collateral; and

(iii) Indebtedness permitted under the LLC Agreement.

For avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.11 does not restrict incurrence of Indebtedness of any Subsidiary that is not a Borrower.

9.12 Limitation on Withdrawals. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, none of the Borrowers shall make or cause the making of any withdrawal or transfer of funds constituting Collateral from any Collateral Account if the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrowers or a Responsible Officer of a Borrower has actual knowledge that a Cash Control Event has occurred and is continuing unless (i) such withdrawal shall be applied to any payment of Obligations or to eliminate or reduce the circumstances giving rise to the Cash Control Event or (ii) provided that no Event of Default is continuing, such withdrawal shall be applied to a Permitted Distribution. The Administrative Agent is authorized to give notice of its exclusive control of the Collateral Accounts to the depository bank or securities intermediary, only if a Cash Control Event has occurred and is continuing.

9.13 Fund Structure. Other than in compliance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement, none of the Borrowers shall transfer, withdraw or assign its interest in any other Borrower or its obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Lenders, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Lender’s sole and absolute discretion.

9.14 Deemed Capital Contributions. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and all Lenders, the Primary Borrower shall not reinvest Fund Investment proceeds which are distributable to Investors if such reinvestment would reduce the Unfunded Capital Commitment of one or more Investors and cause the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations to exceed the Available Commitment unless, prior to such reinvestment, the applicable Borrowers shall make any prepayment required under Section 2.1(e).

101

9.15 Change of Depository Bank. No Borrower shall permit the depository bank with respect to any Collateral Account to change without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (it being understood that any successor depository bank shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent simultaneous with becoming the successor depository bank such documents and agreements (including, without limitation, control agreements and agreements to provide information to the Administrative Agent with respect to Investors) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request).

9.16 Sanctioned Persons, Anti-Bribery. No Borrower shall use directly or indirectly (including without limitation, by lending, contributing or otherwise making available to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person) any part of the proceeds of any Loan hereunder (i) to fund any operations in, finance any investments, business or activities in or make any payments to any Sanctioned Person or Sanctioned Country, or in any other manner that would result in any Person (including, without limitation, any Person participating in the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise) becoming a Sanctioned Person or (ii) for any payments that could constitute a violation of any applicable anti-bribery law in effect at the time of the funding or issuance of such Loan or Letter of Credit.

Section 10. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

10.1 Events of Default. An “Event of Default” shall exist if any one or more of the following events (herein collectively called “Events of Default”) shall occur and be continuing (whatever the reason for such event and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(a), (b) or (c) or any other Event of Default that can be cured by the making of Investor Capital Calls, so long as no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, none of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders may exercise any remedy to which it may be otherwise entitled under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity with respect to such Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent shall have given the Borrowers five (5) Business Days written notice of its intention to exercise such remedies (provided that, no such notice is required to the extent the Event of Default arises from the failure of the Borrowers to make an Investor Capital Call or make a payment following an Investor Capital Call), and, if, at any time prior to or during such five (5) Business Day notice period, the Borrowers shall make an Investor Capital Call on the Unfunded Capital Commitments of the Investors sufficient (together with cash and Permitted Investments on deposit in the Collateral Accounts) to cure each such Event of Default, then the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may not exercise any such remedy until the expiration of the period ending fifteen (15) Business Days from the end of the initial five (5) Business Day notice period, provided that nothing in this Section 10.5(a) shall prohibit the Administrative Agent or any Lender from exercising any remedies it may have with respect to (i) asserting exclusive control of the Collateral Accounts or taking any such actions as may be required to protect their rights in a bankruptcy proceeding or (ii) any Event of Default that shall have occurred and be continuing other than those described in Section 10.1(a), (b) or (c) or any other Event of Default that can be cured by the making of Investor Capital Calls; provided, however, that to the extent that (A) the Borrowers do not make such Investor Capital Call or (B) the application of the proceeds of any such Investor Capital Call are not sufficient (together with cash and Permitted Investments on deposit in the Collateral Accounts) to cure such Event of Default, then, so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the Borrowers shall (1) if they did not originally issue an Investor Capital Call, issue an Investor Capital Call in an amount sufficient (together with cash and Permitted Investments on deposit in the Collateral Accounts) to repay the Obligations, and (2) after thirty (30) days have expired after the applicable Investor Capital Call has been issued the proceeds of which are not sufficient (together with cash and Permitted Investments on deposit in the Collateral Accounts) to repay the Obligations, in good faith use their commercially reasonable efforts (subject to any legal, contractual, fiduciary or regulatory restrictions limiting their ability to do so) to sell sufficient Fund Investments to repay the Obligations as soon as reasonably practicable.

110

(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, so long as no Event of Default of the type specified in any of clauses (c), (j) or (k) of Section 10.1 has occurred, none of Administrative Agent, or any Lender shall (i) issue funding notices to any Investor or take any action against any Investor to enforce its rights under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents, (ii) issue the Administrative Agent Release Notice (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) or (iii) institute legal, equitable or other proceedings against any Borrower, any Investor, or any Affiliate thereof the purpose of which is to prevent the Borrowers from curing the applicable Event of Default (by issuing funding notices or otherwise) as contemplated by this Section 10.5(b), unless (x) the Administrative Agent shall have given the Borrowers five (5) Business Days written notice of its intention to exercise such remedies and (y) at any time prior to or during such five (5) Business Days notice period, either (A) the Borrowers shall not have made an Investor Capital Call on the Investors in accordance with the terms of the Constituent Documents or the applicable Subscription Agreements and this Credit Agreement, sufficient, together with cash and Permitted Investments on deposit in the Collateral Accounts (other than amounts that do not constitute Collateral), to repay the outstanding Obligations in full (a “Full Repayment Capital Call”), or (B) the Borrowers shall have made a Full Repayment Capital Call, but shall not have repaid all the outstanding Obligations on or prior to the expiration of the period ending fifteen (15) Business Days from the end of the initial five (5) Business Days notice period.

(c) In the event that the Administrative Agent elects to notify the Investors to make Investor Capital Contributions in respect of their Unfunded Capital Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, then the Administrative Agent shall use best efforts not to request any individual Investor to fund an amount exceeding such Investor’s pro rata share of the Obligations (based on the proportion of such Investor’s Unfunded Capital Commitment to the aggregate Unfunded Capital Commitments of all Investors included in the Collateral other than defaulted Investors) without first making best efforts (consistent with the terms of the Constituent Documents, this Credit Agreement and applicable law and to the extent it can do so without incurring any material cost or expense) to issue an Investor Capital Call (which may be issued by the Primary Borrower or the Administrative Agent) to each Investor for its pro rata share of the Obligations and waiting thirty (30) calendar days following such Investor Capital Call prior to initiating further remedies; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrowers have made an Investor Capital Call pursuant to Section 10.5(a) or 10.5(b) already with respect to the related Event of Default and fifteen (15) Business Days have elapsed since such Investor Capital Call, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations pursuant to this Section 10.5(c) in all respects.

(d) None of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be entitled to take any action against any Investor that is an ERISA Investor (other than (i) issuing funding notices in the name of the Primary Borrower or (ii) applying funds paid by

111

such ERISA Investor or Plan into the Collateral Accounts (which shall remain in the name of the related Borrower) to the payment of the Obligations), under Section 4.2 of the LLC Agreement or Section 21 of Part IV(A) of the Subscription Agreement for entities, Section 19 of Part IV(A) of the Subscription Agreement for institutional investors and Section 19 of Part IV(A) of the Subscription Agreement for individuals, as applicable to the extent it has knowledge that a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) could arise therefrom.

10.6 Events of Default or Defaults relating to Qualified Borrowers. Notwithstanding any provision in this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, if an Event of Default or Default relating solely to a Qualified Borrower shall occur, upon the payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent obligations that have not been asserted) of such Qualified Borrower hereunder, (1) such Event of Default or Default shall be deemed to be cured and (2) such Qualified Borrower shall no longer have the ability to borrow hereunder and shall be withdrawn as a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.9(g).

Section 11. AGENCY PROVISIONS

11.1 Appointment and Authorization of Agents.

(a) Authority. Each Lender (including any Person that is an assignee, participant, secured party or other transferee with respect to the interest of such Lender in any Principal Obligation or otherwise under this Credit Agreement) (collectively with such Lender, a “Lender Party”) hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes each Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, nor shall any Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist against any Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The provisions of this Section 11 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and no Borrower or Affiliate thereof (each, a “Borrower Party”) or Investor or Affiliate thereof shall have any rights

112

as a third-party beneficiary of the provisions hereof (except as provided in Section 11.9 (regarding the Borrowers’ consent right set forth in the first sentence thereof) or Section 11.10).

(b) Release of Collateral. The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s option and in its sole discretion, to release, discharge and reassign any security interest in or Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent: (i) upon termination of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all of the Obligations, including all fees and indemnified costs and expenses that are then due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents; (ii) pursuant to any express provision of this Credit Agreement; and (iii) if approved by the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 12.1. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.1(b).

11.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of legal counsel, accountants, and other professionals selected by such Agent concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender Party for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care, nor shall it be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such Persons. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 11 shall apply to any such sub-agent of such Agent.

11.3 Exculpatory Provisions. In each case in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, no Agent nor any of its affiliates, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact (each such person, an “Agent-Related Person”), shall be liable to any Lender Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection herewith or in connection with any of the other Loan Documents (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number of percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary), or, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.2 or 12.1 as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary or be responsible in any manner to any Lender Party for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Borrower Parties contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, document, financial statement or other written or oral statement referred to or provided for therein, or received by such Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Loan Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Loan Documents, or for any failure of any Borrower Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. In each case in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, no Agent-Related Person shall be responsible to any Lender Party for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Credit

113

Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made by any Borrower Party in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Agent-Related Person to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower Parties to the Agent-Related Person or any Lender Party or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower Parties. The Agents are not trustees for the Lenders and owe no fiduciary duty to the Lenders. Each Lender Party recognizes and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to determine independently whether the conditions described in Sections 6.2(a) or 6.2(b) have been satisfied and, when the Administrative Agent disburses funds to any Borrowers or the Letter of Credit Issuer causes Letters of Credit to be issued or accepts any Qualified Borrower Guaranties, the Administrative Agent may rely fully upon statements contained in the relevant requests by a Borrower Party.

11.4 Reliance on Communications. In each case in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, email, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any of the Borrower Parties, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agents with reasonable care). Each Agent may deem and treat each Lender as the owner of its interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 12.11(c). Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or to the extent specifically required, all of the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including their successors and assigns).

11.5 Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (other than a payment default under Section 10.1(a)) hereunder unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower Party referring to the Loan Document, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall take such action

114

with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders and as is permitted by the Loan Documents.

11.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent-Related Person hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Borrower Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent- Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Credit Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

11.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify, upon demand, each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by a Borrower Party and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower Parties to do so), ratably in accordance with the applicable Lender’s Lender Pro Rata Share, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following payment in full of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by it under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or related to another Lender; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 11.7. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall

115

reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney costs) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower Parties. The agreements in this Section 11.7 shall survive the termination of the Commitments, payment of all of the Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, as well as the resignation or replacement of any Agent.

11.8 Agents in Their Individual Capacity. Each Agent (and any successor acting as an Agent) and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any Borrower Party (or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as though such Agent were not an Agent or a Lender hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, any Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower Parties or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that such Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them other than notice actually received with respect to a Default or Event of Default. With respect to the Loans made and all obligations owing to it, an Agent acting in its individual capacity shall have the same rights and powers under this Credit Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

11.9 Successor Agent. Any Agent may, at any time, resign upon twenty (20) days written notice to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Borrower Parties, provided, however, that except (a) in the case of a merger by the Administrative Agent with another financial institution (even if the Administrative Agent is not the surviving entity), (b) in the event that such resignation is required for regulatory reasons as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, or (c) during the continuance of an Event of Default, any resignation by the Administrative Agent shall require the prior written consent of the Borrowers, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Borrowers’ sole discretion, and the appointment of any successor Administrative Agent shall require the prior written approval of the Borrowers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Required Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the applicable Agent, then the retiring Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrowers, a successor Agent from any of the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and shall assume the duties and obligations of such retiring Agent, and the

116

retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Agent under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11.9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Credit Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the applicable Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the applicable Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.9 to the contrary, any Agent may subcontract certain of its duties hereunder to a third party so long as the applicable Agent remains primarily liable for the performance of its applicable obligations hereunder. Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer, (b) the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Letter of Credit Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

11.10 Reliance by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be entitled to rely upon, and to act or refrain from acting on the basis of, any notice, statement, certificate, waiver or other document or instrument delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, so long as the Administrative Agent is purporting to act in its respective capacity as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement, and the Borrowers shall not be responsible or liable to any Lender (or to any Participant or to any Assignee), or as a result of any action or failure to act (including actions or omissions which would otherwise constitute defaults hereunder) which is based upon such reliance upon the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers shall be entitled to treat the Administrative Agent as the properly authorized Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement until the Borrowers shall have received notice of resignation, and the Borrowers shall not be obligated to recognize any successor Administrative Agent until the Borrowers shall have received written notification satisfactory to them of the appointment of such successor.

11.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Liability shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or

117

otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower Parties) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Principal Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Secured Parties and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Secured Parties hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Secured Party, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Secured Party or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Secured Party in any such proceeding.

Section 12. MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Amendments. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Credit Agreement, neither this Credit Agreement (including the exhibits hereto) nor any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party, nor any of the terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated, unless such amendment, waiver, discharge, or termination is in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and such Borrower on the other hand; and, if the rights or duties of an Agent are affected thereby, by such Agent; provided that no such amendment, waiver, discharge, or termination shall, without the consent of:

(a) each Lender directly affected thereby:

(i) reduce or increase the amount or alter the term of the Commitment of such Lender, alter the provisions relating to any fees (or any other payments other than as a result of waiving the applicability of Default

(iii) release all or substantially all Liens granted under the Collateral Documents, except as otherwise contemplated herein or therein, and except in connection with the transfer of interests in, or withdrawal from, a Borrower permitted hereunder or in any other Loan Document;

The Administrative Agent agrees that it will promptly notify each Lender of any proposed modification or amendment to any Loan Document, and deliver drafts of such proposed modification or amendment to such Lenders, prior to the effectiveness of such proposed modification or amendment. Notwithstanding the above: (A) no provisions of Section 11 may be waived, amended or modified without the consent of the Administrative Agent, or, to the extent affected thereby, any other Agent, and no provisions of Section 2.14 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer; (B) Section 8 and Section 9 specify the requirements for waivers of the Affirmative Covenants and Negative Covenants listed therein, and any amendment to a provision of Section 8 or Section 9 shall require the consent of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent that are specified therein as required for a waiver thereof; and (C) no additional Lender shall be appointed as a Lead Arranger or given any similar title without the written consent of the Borrowers and the Lead Arranger. Any amendment, waiver or consent not specifically addressed in this Section 12.1 or otherwise shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above: (1) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans or the Letters of Credit, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein; and (2) the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, agree to the modification or waiver of any of the other terms of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any action or failure to act by any Borrower, if such modification, waiver, or consent is of an administrative nature.

If the Administrative Agent shall request the consent of any Lender to any amendment, change, waiver, discharge, termination, consent or exercise of rights covered by this Credit Agreement, and shall not receive such consent or denial thereof in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the making of such request by the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent to the request.

12.2 Sharing of Offsets. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agree that if it shall, through the exercise of any right of counterclaim, offset, banker’s lien or otherwise, receive payment of a portion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due to such Lender hereunder which constitutes a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees then due to such Lender hereunder than the proportion received by

120

any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due with respect to such other Lenders under this Credit Agreement, then such Lender shall purchase participations in the Obligations under this Credit Agreement held by such other Lenders so that all such recoveries of principal, interest and fees with respect to this Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Obligations thereunder held by the Lenders shall be pro rata according to each Lender’s outstanding Obligations (determined as of the date thereof and regardless of any change in any Lender’s outstanding Obligations caused by such Lender’s receipt of a proportionately greater or lesser payment hereunder).

12.3 Sharing of Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Lender and the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, agrees that if it shall, through the receipt of any proceeds from an Investor Capital Call or the exercise of any remedies under any Collateral Documents, receive or be entitled to receive payment of a portion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due to it under this Credit Agreement which constitutes a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees then due to such Lender under this Credit Agreement than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due with respect to any Obligations to such Lender under this Credit Agreement, then such Lender or the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, as the case may be, shall purchase participations in the Obligations under this Credit Agreement held by such other Lenders so that all such recoveries of principal, interest and fees with respect to this Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Obligations thereunder held by the Lenders shall be pro rata according to each Lender’s outstanding Obligations (determined as of the date hereof and regardless of any change in any Lender’s outstanding Obligations caused by such Lender’s receipt of a proportionately greater or lesser payment hereunder). Each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to coordinate and implement the sharing of collateral contemplated by this Section 12.3 prior to the distribution of proceeds from Investor Capital Calls or proceeds from the exercise of remedies under the Collateral Documents prior to making any distributions of such proceeds to each Lender or the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender.

12.4 Waiver. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or Lender, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall be in addition to all other rights provided by law. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents, nor consent to departure therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such consent or waiver shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved. No notice or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or demand. A waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion.

12.5 Payment of Expenses; Indemnity.

(a) Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay on a joint and several basis (promptly and in all events within thirty (30) days after the receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent with appropriate supporting documentation) its pro rata portion of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent’s one designated law firm and, to the extent applicable, one law firm in each relevant foreign jurisdiction) reasonably and actually incurred by it in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents, any and all amendments, modifications and supplements thereof or thereto and the initial syndication undertaken at the direction of, or with the approval of, the Borrowers, and, if an Event of Default exists, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the attorneys’ reasonable and documented fees of the Administrative Agent’s one designated law firm and, to the extent applicable, one law firm in each relevant foreign jurisdiction) reasonably and actually incurred by them in connection with the preservation and enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights under this Credit Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Each Borrower hereby agrees on a joint and several basis to indemnify each Agent-Related Person, each Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, such Borrower’s pro rata share of any and all losses, claims, actions, judgments, suits, disbursements, penalties, damages (other than consequential damages), liabilities and related expenses and counsel fees and expenses (including, without limitation, the counsel fees and expenses incurred in the enforcement of any Loan Documents against any Borrower), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of:

(i) the execution, delivery and enforcement of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby,

(ii) the use or misuse of the proceeds of any Loans to a Borrower or Letters of Credit,

(iii) the fraudulent actions or misrepresentations of any Borrower or its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any breach by any Borrower of its obligations under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or

122

(iv) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing or relating to any transaction contemplated hereby, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto;

provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to (x) any such losses, claims, actions, judgments, suits, disbursements, penalties, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (or such Indemnitee’s Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact); (y) any settlements related to the Credit Agreement or transactions contemplated hereby without the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); or (z) disputes among two or more Indemnitees; provided, however, that recourse for amounts owing from Investor Capital Commitments that are uncollectible or uncollected due to the bankruptcy, insolvency or financial inability of the Investor to pay shall be excluded from the indemnifications provided for in this Section 12.5. This Section 12.5(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) In addition to and without limiting the foregoing, each of the Borrowers hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Indemnitees harmless from and against, and agree to reimburse any Indemnitee on demand for, and agree to defend the Indemnitees against, any and all Environmental Damages (as hereinafter defined), incurred by any Indemnitee. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (OR ANY OTHER) INDEMNITEE. HOWEVER, SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO A PARTICULAR INDEMNITEE TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SUBJECT OF THE INDEMNIFICATION IS CAUSED BY OR ARISES OUT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THAT PARTICULAR INDEMNITEE.

The term “Environmental Damages” means all claims, demands, liabilities (including strict liability), losses, damages (including consequential damages), causes of action, judgments, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees, costs and expenses of attorneys, consultants, contractors, experts and laboratories), of any and every kind or character, contingent or otherwise, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, direct or indirect, foreseeable or unforeseeable, made, incurred, suffered or brought at any time and from time to time and arising in whole or in part from:

(i) The presence of any Hazardous Material on any Fund Investment, or any escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, emission, release, discharge or disposal of any Hazardous Material on or from any Fund Investment, or the migration or release or threatened migration or release of any Hazardous Material to, from or through any Fund Investment; or

123

(ii) Any act, omission, event or circumstance existing or occurring in connection with the handling, treatment, containment, removal, storage, decontamination, clean-up, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Material by any Borrower, or any party for whose actions such Borrower is liable or in connection with any Fund Investment; or

(iii) The breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in Section 7.13 (to the extent such breach relates to Environmental Requirements), Section 7.14 or Section 8.10 (to the extent such breach relates to Environmental Requirements) of this Credit Agreement; or

(iv) Any violation of any Environmental Requirement by any Borrower, regardless of whether any act, omission, event or circumstance giving rise to the violation constituted a violation at the time of the occurrence or inception of such act, omission, event or circumstance; or

(v) Any Environmental Liability with respect to any Fund Investment, or the filing or imposition of any Environmental Lien against any Fund Investment, because of, resulting from, in connection with, or arising out of any of the matters referred to in subsections (i) through (iv) preceding;

provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to any such losses, claims, actions, judgments, suits, disbursements, penalties, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(d) WITHOUT LIMITATION OF AND SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, EACH BORROWER INTENDS AND AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO ALL CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LOSSES, LIABILITIES, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE REASONABLE FEES AND EXPENSES OF COUNSEL) WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OR CLAIMS OF NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH OR ANY OTHER INDEMNITEE OR ANY STRICT LIABILITY OR CLAIMS OF STRICT LIABILITY.

(e) The provisions of this Section 12.5 shall survive termination of this Credit Agreement, and shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the Commitment Period, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Obligations, the occurrence of the Maturity Date, the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents or the Lenders. All amounts due under this Section 12.5 shall be payable promptly (and in all events within thirty (30) days) upon written demand therefor.

Notices and other communications to the Lenders or any other person hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent and the Primary Borrower that it is incapable of receiving such notices by electronic communication.

12.7 Governing Law. The laws of the State of New York shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Credit Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents.

12.8 Choice of Forum; Consent to Service of Process and Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury. Any suit, action or proceeding against any Borrower with respect to this Credit Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof, may be brought in the courts of the State of New York, or in the United States Courts located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, pursuant to Section 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law, and each Borrower hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such suit, action or proceeding. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process in any suit, action or proceeding in said court by the mailing thereof by the applicable party by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party’s address set forth in Section 12.6. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives any objections 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 Credit Agreement or the Notes brought in the courts located in the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan in New York City, and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN CONNECTION WITH THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHICH WAIVER IS INFORMED AND VOLUNTARY.

12.9 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Credit Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Credit Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable and this Credit Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Credit Agreement, and the remaining provisions of this Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Credit Agreement, unless such continued effectiveness of this Credit Agreement, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and intentions of the parties as expressed herein. If any provision of this Credit Agreement shall conflict with or be inconsistent with any provision of any of the other Loan Documents, then the terms, conditions and provisions of this Credit Agreement shall prevail.

127

12.10 Entirety. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

12.11 Parties Bound; Assignment.

(a) Parties Bound. The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that, except as expressly permitted hereby, no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its respective rights under this Credit Agreement without the prior written consent of all the Lenders.

(b) Participations. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and, other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrowers (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld), any Lender may (subject to compliance with the provisions of this Section 12.11) at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a “Participant”) a participating interest in its Commitment or any or all of its Principal Obligations. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce and exercise any rights and perform its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the Obligations including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement. The voting rights of each Participant shall be limited to (i) reductions or increases in the amount, or altering the term, of the Commitment of such Participant and (ii) changes to the Maturity Date or interest rate. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4 and Section 5.3 with respect to its participating interest, to the extent that such Participant complies with the requirements of such Sections (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.1(f) shall be delivered to the granting Lender), as if it were a Lender; provided (i) that in no event shall any Borrower be obligated to pay to such Participant amounts greater than those such Borrower would have been required to pay to the granting Lender in the absence of such participation, and (ii) it shall be reasonable for the Borrowers to decline consent to a participation to a Lender which does not agree to waive its rights under Section 5.3 of this Credit Agreement. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Credit Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest which is permitted in accordance with this subsection (b). Each Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant shall, as agent of the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 12.11(b), record in book entries

128

maintained by such Lender the name and the amount of the participating interest of each Participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interests (the “Participant Register”); provided that no 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 any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Credit Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Assignments by Lenders. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and, other than (x) during the continuance of an Event of Default or (y) in the case of an assignment to an existing Lender, or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender that is of similar credit quality as such assigning Lender, the Borrowers (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld), any Lender may (at its expense) at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (an “Assignee”) all, or a proportionate part of all (in a constant, not varying, percentage), of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement; provided that:

(i) this Section 12.11(c) shall not restrict an assignment or other transfer by any Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder;

(ii) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, or the assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, any assignment shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 unless otherwise consented to by the Administrative Agent, and, other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrowers;

(iii) the assignee shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent any documentation required pursuant to Section 4.1(f);

(iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and pay to the transferor Lender an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between

129

such transferor Lender and such Assignee, and the transferor Lender shall deliver payment of a Processing and Recordation Fee to the Administrative Agent;

(v) notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, it shall be reasonable for the Borrowers to decline consent to an assignment to a Lender which does not agree to waive its rights under Section 5.3 of this Credit Agreement; and

(vi) the consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment.

(e) Consequences of Assignment by Lenders. Upon execution and delivery of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall become party to this Credit Agreement as a Lender and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required.

(f) Limitations on Assignments and Participations. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.11 to the contrary, (i) each Participant and each Assignee must be a Qualified Purchaser and (ii) prior to an Event of Default, at no time shall there be more than two (2) Lenders and Participants in the aggregate without the consent of the Borrowers in their sole discretion.

(g) Register of Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its principal offices in Charlotte, North Carolina or at such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to each Lender and the Borrowers, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the amount of each Lender’s pro rata share of the Commitments and the Loans, and the name and address of each Lender’s agent for service of process in New York (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall, and the Borrowers shall cause the other Borrowers to, treat each person or entity whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection and copying by any Borrower or any Lender during normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent. A Lender may change its address and its agent for service of process upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be effective upon actual receipt by the Administrative Agent, which receipt will be acknowledged by the Administrative Agent upon request. Upon receipt of any Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall, if such

130

Assignment and Acceptance Agreement has been completed, fully-executed and is in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto: (i) accept such an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement; (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers. Each Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant shall, as agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose, record in book entries maintained by such Lender the name and the amount of the participating interest of each Participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interests.

(h) Disclosure of Information. Any Lender may furnish any information concerning any Borrower Party in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 12.17.

(i) Lender Representation. Each Lender represents and warrants that it is (and its Participants, if any, will be) a Qualified Purchaser.

12.12 Lender Removal/Replacement. (a) If for any reason any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, or the Borrowers at law or in equity, such Lender’s right to vote on matters related to this Credit Agreement, and to participate in the administration of the Loans and this Credit Agreement, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. The Borrowers may, upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, such Defaulting Lender, with respect to a Defaulting Lender, a Lender who does not consent to an amendment or waiver under Section 12.1, a Lender that does not consent to an extension of the Stated Maturity Date under Section 2.15(a) or a Secured Party requesting compensation or indemnification under Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.3, Section 4.4, Section 4.5 or Section 4.6, as the case may be, require such Defaulting Lender, non-consenting Lender or Secured Party to (i) assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.11), all its interests, rights and obligations as a Lender under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (ii) resign from its obligations as Lender or Secured Party under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents and the Borrower may reduce the Maximum Commitment by an amount equal to such Lender or Secured Party’s Commitment; provided that (x) the assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans funded by it, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all accrued and unpaid fees to which such Lender is entitled and all other Obligations payable to such Lender hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other Obligations) and (y) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a demand for compensation or indemnification under Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.3, Section 4.4, Section 4.5 or Section 4.6 such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. Any such assignment shall be made upon not less than ten (10) Business Days notice delivered by the Borrowers to the Defaulting Lender

131

and the Administrative Agent. The Defaulting Lender required to assign pursuant to this Section 12.12 shall have no duty to procure an assignee.

(b) Subject to subsection (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation to acquire at par all of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, including its Lender Pro Rata Share (immediately prior to becoming a Defaulting Lender) of the Obligations under this Credit Agreement. In the event that the Administrative Agent does not exercise its right to so acquire all of such Lender’s interests, then each Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender (a “Current Party”) shall then, thereupon, have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire at par (or if more than one Current Party exercises such right, each Current Party shall have the right to acquire, pro rata, at par) such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, including its Lender Pro Rata Share (immediately prior to becoming a Defaulting Lender) of the outstanding Obligations under this Credit Agreement.

12.13 Maximum Interest. Regardless of any provision contained in any of the Loan Documents, in no event shall the rate of interest payable by any Borrower with respect to any Obligation exceed the Maximum Rate.

12.14 Headings. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Credit Agreement.

12.15 Survival. All representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein shall survive delivery of the Notes, the making of the Loans.

12.16 Full Recourse. Notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Obligations of any Borrower shall be fully recourse to such Borrower. Notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Obligations shall not be recourse to any Investor, to any of the Borrowers’ past, present or future directors, officers, employees, incorporators, authorized persons or agents, or the Investment Adviser, except, in each case, for any claim or action for actual damages of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Lenders as a result of any fraud, gross negligence, willful misrepresentation or willful misappropriation of proceeds from the Credit Facility on the part of such Person, in which event there shall be full recourse against such Person. The Fund Investments shall not be included in the Collateral. No Investor shall have any personal liability under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents provided that the foregoing shall not limit the obligations of such Investor under the LLC Agreement or its Subscription Agreement to make Investor Capital Contributions with respect to its Unfunded Capital Commitment.

12.17 Availability of Records; Confidentiality. (a) The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Agents may provide to the Lenders, and that the Agents and each Lender may provide to any Affiliate thereof or Participant or Assignee or proposed Participant or Assignee and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, auditors, counsel, and agents or any other Person as deemed necessary or appropriate in any Agent’s or Lender’s reasonable judgment, provided that such party is advised of the

132

confidential nature of such information, originals or copies of this Credit Agreement, all Loan Documents and all other documents, certificates, opinions, letters of credit, reports, and other material information of every nature or description, and may communicate all oral information, at any time submitted by or on behalf of any Borrower Party or received by an Agent or a Lender in connection with the Principal Obligations, the Commitments or any Borrower Party; provided that, prior to any such delivery or communication, the Agent, Affiliate of an Agent, Lender, Affiliate of a Lender, Participant, or Assignee, or proposed Participant or Assignee or such other Person, as the case may be, shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of all data and information which constitutes Confidential Information; (b) the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders (i) acknowledge and agree that (x) the identities of the Investors, any structural or financial information delivered by the Investors, the amounts of their respective Investor Capital Commitments and details regarding their investments under the LLC Agreement (collectively, the “Investor Information”) have been and will be delivered on a confidential basis; and (y) information with respect to Fund Investments has been and will be delivered on a confidential basis; (ii) acknowledge and agree that such Investor Information and information with respect to Fund Investments are Confidential Information; and (iii) agree that such Investor Information and information with respect to Fund Investments shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.17; and (c) anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of this Section 12.17 shall not preclude or restrict any such Person from disclosing any Confidential Information: (i) with the prior written consent of any Borrower; (ii) upon the order of or pursuant to the rules and regulations of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such party; (iii) in connection with any audit by an independent public accountant of such party, provided that such auditor thereto agrees to keep such information confidential; (iv) to examiners or auditors of any applicable Governmental Authority which examines such party’s books and records while conducting such examination or audit; (v) as otherwise specifically required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the enforcement of rights thereunder, (vi) to the extent such information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.17 or (B) becomes available to such Person on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers or (vii) which relates to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such Person relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, to taxing authorities.

12.18 USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

133

12.19 Multiple Counterparts. This Credit Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Credit Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart hereof, or a signature page hereto, by facsimile or in a .pdf or similar file shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart thereof.

12.20 Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower acknowledges, represents and warrants the following:

(a) Inducement. The Lenders have been induced to make the Loans to the Borrowers in part based upon the assurances by each Borrower that each Borrower desires that the Notes be honored and enforced as separate obligations of each Borrower, should the Administrative Agent and the Lenders desire to do so.

(b) Combined Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loans and the other Obligations constitute the joint and several obligations of each and every Borrower (other than an Excluded Borrower), and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may at their option enforce the entire amount of the Loans and the other Obligations against any one or more of the Borrowers (other than an Excluded Borrower). For purposes of this Section 12.20(b), “Excluded Borrower” shall mean any Person that the Administrative Agent agrees in writing to treat as an Excluded Borrower in connection with approving such Person to be a Qualified Borrower pursuant to Section 2.9 (it being understood that the Primary Borrower may condition its application for such approval on the Administrative Agent’s agreement to treat such Person as an Excluded Borrower).

(c) Separate Exercise of Remedies. The Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) may exercise remedies against any Borrower and its property separately, whether or not the Administrative Agent exercises remedies against any other Borrower or its property. The Administrative Agent may enforce any Borrower’s obligations without enforcing any other Borrower’s obligations. Any failure or inability of the Administrative Agent to enforce any Borrower’s obligations shall not in any way limit the Administrative Agent’s right to enforce the obligations of any other Borrower. If the Administrative Agent forecloses or exercises similar remedies under any one or more Collateral Documents, then such foreclosure or similar remedy shall be deemed to reduce the balance of the Loans only to the extent of the cash proceeds actually realized by the Lenders from such foreclosure or similar remedy or, if applicable, the Administrative Agent’s credit bid at such sale, regardless of the effect of such foreclosure or similar remedy on the Loans secured by such Collateral Documents under the applicable state law.

11. The Pledgor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, during the existence of an Event of Default and subject to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement, to receive, take, endorse, assign, deliver, accept and deposit, in the Administrative Agent’s or the Pledgor’s name, any and all checks, notes, drafts, or other instruments payable to the Pledgor evidencing payments that are required pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement to be deposited into the Pledgor Collateral Account.

12. During the existence of an Event of Default, but subject to the Credit Agreement in all instances (including Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement and without limiting the generality of Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement), the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in addition to any other remedies it may have, may do one or more of the following:

16. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to apply any and all funds received by it hereunder toward payment and performance of the due and payable Obligations in such order and manner as is provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon full and final payment of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement (except indemnity and other Obligations which by their terms survive termination of the Credit Agreement), the rights of the Administrative Agent in and to the Pledgor Collateral Account hereunder will be deemed to be released and of no further force and effect and upon the request of and at the sole expense of the Pledgor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide notice of termination to the [Securities Intermediary] [Depository] and take appropriate action to terminate the Control Agreement.

17. All rights, title, interests, Liens, and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are cumulative of each other and of every other right, title, interest, lien, or remedy which the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or the other Secured Parties may otherwise have at law or in equity or under any other contract or other writing for the enforcement of the security interest herein or the collection of the Obligations, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not prejudice or impair the concurrent or subsequent exercise of other rights or remedies, but in all events subject to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement and without limiting the generality of Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement. Should the Pledgor have heretofore executed or hereafter execute any other security agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or the Secured Parties, the security interest therein created and all other rights, powers, and privileges vested in the Secured Parties by the terms thereof shall exist concurrently with the security interest created herein.

18. Should any part of the Obligations be payable in installments, the acceptance by the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time of partial payment of the aggregate amount of all installments then matured shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any default then existing. No waiver by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or the Secured Parties of any default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other subsequent default, nor shall any such waiver by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or the Secured Parties be deemed to be a continuing waiver. No delay or omission by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or the Secured Parties in exercising

19. No provision herein or in any promissory note, instrument, or any other Loan Document evidencing the Obligations shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum permitted by law. If any excess of interest in such respect is provided for herein or in any such promissory note, instrument, or any other Loan Document, the provisions of this paragraph shall govern, and the Pledgor shall not be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the amount permitted by law. The intention of the parties being to conform strictly to the usury laws now in force, all promissory notes, instruments, and other loan documents evidencing the Obligations shall be held subject to reduction to the amount allowed under said usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction.

20. The Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that:

a. subject to the Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder and under the Control Agreement, the Pledgor is the sole owner of the Pledgor Collateral Account on the date hereof and has authority to execute and deliver this Pledge;

b. except for any financing statement which may be filed by the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as agent under the Credit Agreement, no financing statement covering the Pledgor Collateral Account, or any part thereof, has been filed with any filing office;

New York, New York

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned [NAME OF QUALIFIED BORROWER], a [FORM OF LEGAL ENTITY] (the “Maker”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as the Administrative Agent for each of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement (defined below) (the “Payee”) or its registered assigns, to the account specified in Section 3.4 of the Credit Agreement, the principal sum of each Loan from time to time for which the Maker is liable pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement together with accrued interest thereon, in lawful money of the United States of America or the applicable Alternative Currency, as applicable, on the Maturity Date or as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement.

The unpaid principal amount of this promissory note (this “Note”) shall be payable in accordance with the terms of Sections 3.2 and 3.4 of the Credit Agreement.

All Borrowings and Rollovers by the Maker, and all payments made with respect thereto, may be recorded by the Payee from time to time on one or more grids which may be attached hereto or by such other method as the Payee may generally employ; provided, however, that failure to make any such entry shall in no way increase, reduce or diminish the Maker’s obligations hereunder. The aggregate unpaid amount of all Borrowings and Rollovers set forth on the grid(s) which may be attached hereto shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the unpaid principal amount of this Note.

This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement and is one of the “Qualified Borrower Promissory Notes” referred to therein, and the holder of this Note shall

H-1

Borrower Promissory Note

be entitled to the benefits provided in the Credit Agreement. This Note evidences Loans made under the Credit Agreement to the Maker. Reference is hereby made to the Credit Agreement for a statement of: (a) the obligation of the Lenders to make advances thereunder; (b) the prepayment rights and obligations of the Maker; (c) the collateral for the repayment of this Note; and (d) the events upon which the maturity of this Note may be accelerated. The Maker may borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder upon the terms and conditions specified in the Credit Agreement. The repayment of this Note is guaranteed by the guaranty of the Primary Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should any of the events described in Section 10.1(j) or 10.1(k) of the Credit Agreement occur with respect to the Maker, then the principal of and accrued interest on this Note shall become due and payable concurrently therewith without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Maker.

The Maker and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors and other parties ever liable for payment of any sums payable pursuant to the terms of this Note waive (except as expressly provided in the Credit Agreement) demand, presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, diligence in collection, the bringing of any suit against any party, and any notice of or defense on account of any extensions, renewals, partial payment, or any releases or substitutions of any security, or any delay, indulgence, or other act of any trustee or any holder hereof, whether before or after maturity.

The laws of the State of New York shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Note.

By its execution hereof, the Maker hereby agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as a Qualified Borrower as if it were a signature party thereto.

The Maker’s address for notices pursuant to Section 12.6 of the Credit Agreement is specified below the Maker’s signature on the following page.

5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Borrower Guaranty, until the Guaranteed Debt has been paid in full, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives all rights it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating the Borrower to the rights of the Creditor) to seek contribution, indemnification, or any other form of reimbursement from the Qualified Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any obligations of the Qualified Borrower to the Creditor, for any disbursement made by the Borrower under or in connection with this Borrower Guaranty or otherwise.

6. The Borrower represents and warrants that it has received or will receive direct or indirect benefit from the making of this Borrower Guaranty and the creation of the Guaranteed Debt, that the Borrower is familiar with the financial condition of the Qualified Borrower and the value of any collateral security for the Guaranteed Debt and that the Creditor has made no representations to the Borrower in order to induce the Borrower to execute this Borrower Guaranty.

7. [Reserved].

8. This Borrower Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Creditor, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or dissolution of the Qualified Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

9. This Borrower Guaranty has been executed and delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement and is one of the “Borrower Guaranties” referred to therein. This Borrower Guaranty may be amended only by a written instrument executed by the Borrower and the Creditor.

10. The laws of the State of New York shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Borrower Guaranty.

11. Schedule A to this Borrower Guaranty may be amended by the Borrower from time to time to identify additional Qualified Borrowers and Qualified Borrower Promissory Notes, the obligations of which will become subject to this Borrower Guaranty and upon such amendment all references herein to Schedule A shall be deemed to mean Schedule A as amended thereby. Such amendment shall be in the form of Schedule B annexed hereto.

12. Any suit, action or proceeding against the Borrower with respect to this Borrower Guaranty or any judgment entered by any court in respect hereof, may be brought in the courts of the State of New York, or in the United States Courts located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City and the Borrower hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such suit, action or proceeding.
