Exhibit 4.1

BRIGHTWOOD CAPITAL CORPORATION I

(A Maryland Corporation)

Article I.

Section 1.01          Subscription.

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties contained in this subscription agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”), the undersigned (the “Investor”) irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”), of BRIGHTWOOD CAPITAL CORPORATION I (the “Company”) on the terms and conditions described herein, in the Company’s disclosure package consisting of the materials listed in Appendix F hereto (together with any appendices and supplements thereto, the “Disclosure Package”), in the Company’s [Amended and Restated] Articles of Incorporation (the “Charter”), in the Company’s Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), in the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement by and between the Company and BRIGHTWOOD CAPITAL ADVISORS, LLC (the “Adviser”) (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) and in the Administration Agreement between the Company and BRIGHTWOOD CAPITAL ADVISORS, LLC (in such capacity, the “Administrator”) (the “Administration Agreement” and together with the Charter, the Bylaws, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Disclosure Package, the “Operative Documents”). The Investor has received the Operative Documents. The Company expects to enter into separate subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements”) with other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”), providing for the sale of Shares to the Other Investors. This Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements are separate agreements, and the sales of Shares to the undersigned and the Other Investors are to be separate sales.

(b)            The Investor agrees to purchase Shares for an aggregate purchase price equal to the amount set forth on the signature page hereof (the “Capital Commitment”), payable at such times and in such amounts as required by the Company, under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. On each Drawdown Date (as defined below), the Investor agrees to purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to issue to the Investor, a number of Shares equal to the Drawdown Share Amount (as defined below) at an aggregate price equal to the Drawdown Purchase Price (as defined below); provided, however, that in no circumstance will an Investor be required to purchase Shares for an amount in excess of its Unused Capital Commitment (as defined below).

(c)            To accommodate the legal, tax, regulatory or fiscal concerns of certain Other Investors, the Adviser may determine to allow certain Other Investors (the “Fully Funded Other Investors”) to fully fund their Capital Commitment.

“Drawdown Purchase Price” shall mean, for each Drawdown Date, an amount in U.S. dollars determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate amount of Capital Commitments being drawn down by the Company from all Investors on that Drawdown Date, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Unused Capital Commitment of the Investor and the denominator of which is the aggregate Unused Capital Commitments of all Investors that are not Defaulting Investors or Excluded Investors (as defined below).

“Drawdown Share Amount” shall mean, for each Drawdown Date, a number of Shares determined by dividing (i) the Drawdown Purchase Price for that Drawdown Date by (ii) the Per Share NAV (as defined below) as of the Drawdown Date, subject to adjustment to take into account a determination of changes to the net asset value per share of common stock within 48 hours of the Drawdown Date to ensure compliance with Section 23(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (the “Adjustment Procedures”), with the resulting quotient adjusted to the nearest whole number to avoid the issuance of fractional shares.

“Per Share NAV” shall mean, for any date, the net asset value per share of common stock determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Disclosure Package (as those procedures may be changed from time to time in a manner consistent with the limitations of the 0000 Xxx) as of the last day of the Company’s fiscal quarter immediately preceding such date.

“Unused Capital Commitment” shall mean, with respect to an Investor, the amount of such Investor’s Capital Commitment as of any date reduced by the aggregate amount of contributions made by that Investor at all previous Drawdown Dates and any Catch-up Date pursuant to Section 1.01(b) and Section 1.02(b), respectively.

Section 1.02          Closings.

(a)            The closing of this subscription agreement will take place at [810 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000] on [___], 2022 (such date being the “Closing Date,” and the date upon which the first closing of any Subscription Agreement occurs being referred to herein as the “Initial Closing Date”). The Investor agrees to provide any information reasonably requested by the Company to verify the accuracy of the representations contained herein, including without limitation the investor suitability questionnaire attached as Appendix A (the “Investor Profile Form”). Promptly after the Closing Date, the Company will deliver to the Investor or its representative, if the Investor’s subscription has been accepted, a countersigned copy of this Subscription Agreement and other documents and instruments necessary to reflect the Investor’s status as an investor in the Company, including any documents and instruments to be delivered pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

(b)            Subject to Section 1.02(e) below, the Company may enter into Other Subscription Agreements with Other Investors after the Closing Date, with any closing thereunder referred to as a “Subsequent Closing” and any Other Investor whose subscription has been accepted at such Subsequent Closing referred to as a “Subsequent Investor.” Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1.01(b) and 2.01, on a date to be determined by the Company that occurs on or following the Subsequent Closing but no later than the next succeeding Drawdown Date (the “Catch-up Date”), each Subsequent Investor shall be required to purchase from the Company a number of Shares with an aggregate purchase price necessary to ensure that, upon payment of the aggregate purchase price for such Shares by the Subsequent Investor on the Catch-up Date, such Subsequent Investor’s Invested Percentage (as defined below) shall be equal to the Invested Percentage of all prior Investors (other than any Defaulting Investors, Excluded Investors or Fully Funded Other Investors) (the “Catch-up Purchase Price”). Upon payment of the Catch-up Purchase Price by the Investor on the Catch-up Date, the Company shall issue to each such Subsequent Investor a number of Shares determined by dividing (x) the Catch-up Purchase Price by (y) the Per Share NAV as of the Catch-up Date, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Adjustment Procedures. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Catch-up Date and a Drawdown Date occur on the same calendar day, the Catch-up Date (and the application of the provisions of this Section 1.02(b)) shall be deemed to have occurred immediately prior to the relevant Drawdown Date.

“Invested Percentage” means, with respect to an Investor, the quotient determined by dividing (i) the aggregate amount of contributions made by such Investor pursuant to Section 1.01(b) and this Section 1.02(b) by (ii) such Investor’s Capital Commitment.

(c)            At each Drawdown Date following any Subsequent Closing, all Investors, including Subsequent Investors, shall purchase Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.01(b); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the definition of Drawdown Share Amount and the provisions of Section 2.01(b), nothing in this Subscription Agreement shall prohibit the Company from issuing Shares to Subsequent Investors at a per share price greater than the Per Share NAV as of the Drawdown Date, as adjusted pursuant to the Adjustment Procedures.

(d)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may permit the Investor to increase its Capital Commitment; provided however, that any such increases do not cause the Investor’s Capital Commitment to exceed $700,000,000 or such other amount as may be mutually agreed to by the Company and Investor. In the event that any Investor is permitted by the Company to make an additional capital commitment to purchase Shares on a date after its initial subscription has been accepted, such Investor will be required to enter into a separate subscription agreement with the Company and such other documents as may be requested by the Company, it being understood and agreed that such separate subscription agreement will be considered to be an Other Subscription Agreement for the purposes of this Subscription Agreement.

(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.02, the Company shall not seek to raise additional Capital Commitments from Subsequent Investors without the prior consent or approval of the holders of the majority of the Company’s then outstanding Shares.

Article II.

Section 2.01          Drawdowns.

(a)            Subject to Section 2.01(e), purchases of Shares will take place on dates selected by the Company in its sole discretion (each, a “Drawdown Date”) and shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.01(b); provided, however, that no Drawdown Date shall occur until the Company’s Form 10 shall have become effective under the 1934 Act.

(b)            Prior to each Drawdown Date, the Company shall deliver to the Investor a notice (each, a “Drawdown Notice”) setting forth (i) the aggregate purchase price for Shares being purchased on the Drawdown Date; (ii) the applicable Drawdown Purchase Price; (iii) the estimated Drawdown Share Amount; (iv) applicable Per Share NAV as of the applicable Drawdown Date, and (v) the account to which the Drawdown Purchase Price should be wired. The Company shall deliver each Drawdown Notice to the Investor at least 10 Business Days prior to the Drawdown Date. On the Drawdown Date, if as a result of adjustments to the Per Share NAV in accordance with the Adjustment Procedures, the estimated Drawdown Share Amount set forth in the Drawdown Notice is not the actual Drawdown Share Amount, the Company will deliver to the Investor an additional notice setting forth the adjusted Per Share NAV and the actual Drawdown Share Amount.

For the purposes of this Subscription Agreement, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than Saturday, Sunday or a federal holiday, and shall consist of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 midnight Eastern time.

(c)            On each Drawdown Date, the Investor shall pay the Drawdown Purchase Price to the Company by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account specified in the Drawdown Notice.

(d)            The Company has appointed a third party transfer agent, distribution paying agent and registrar for the Shares.

(e)            At the end of the Investment Period (as defined below), any Unused Capital Commitment (other than any Defaulted Commitment) shall automatically be reduced to zero, provided, however that Investors will remain obligated to fund Drawdowns to the extent necessary to pay amounts due under Drawdown Notices that the Company may thereafter issue to: (a) fund the management fee and other Company liabilities and expenses throughout the term of the Company (including to repay outstanding financings of the Company); (b) complete Company investments that are in process or that have been committed to as of the end of the Investment Period; and (c) make follow-on investments in an aggregate amount up to 10% of the gross assets of the Company. “Investment Period” shall mean the period beginning on the date of the Initial Closing and continuing through the four year anniversary of the Initial Closing, subject to automatic extensions, thereafter, each for an additional one year period, unless the holders of a majority of the company’s then outstanding Shares elect to forego any such extension, upon not less than ninety (90) days prior written notice to the Adviser; provided, however, that the holders of a majority of the Company’s then outstanding Shares may terminate the Investment Period at any time, upon not less than ninety (90) days prior written notice to the Adviser. The Adviser may also terminate the Investment Period as of an earlier date in its good faith discretion after consulting with the Investors about the reasons for the termination and making good faith efforts to resolve the reason for the early termination if so requested by the holders of a majority of outstanding Shares.¹

(f)            The term of the Company (the “Term”) shall be perpetual.

(g)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall have the right (a “Limited Exclusion Right”) to exclude any Investor (such Investor, an “Excluded Investor”) from purchasing Shares from the Company on any Drawdown Date if, in the reasonable discretion of the Company, there is a substantial likelihood that such Investor’s purchase of Shares at such time would result in a violation of, or noncompliance with, any law or regulation to which such Investor, the Company, the Adviser, any Other Investor or a portfolio company would be subject. In the event that any Limited Exclusion Rights is exercised, the Company shall be authorized to issue an additional Drawdown Notice to the non-Excused Investors to make up any applicable shortfall caused by such Limited Exclusion Right. In no event shall the Investor be required to contribute capital pursuant to any Drawdown Notice in excess of the Investor’s then current Unused Capital Commitment.

Section 2.02          Pledging. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor specifically agrees and consents that the Company may, at any time, and without further notice to or consent from the Investor (except to the extent otherwise provided in this Subscription Agreement), grant security over (and, in connection therewith), Transfer (as defined in Section 4.01(c)(1) its right to draw down capital from the Investor pursuant to Section 2.01, and the Company’s right to receive the Drawdown Share Purchase Price (and any related rights of the Company), to lenders or other creditors of the Company, in connection with any indebtedness, guarantee or surety of the Company; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any such grantee’s right to draw down capital shall be subject to the limitations on the Company’s right to draw down capital pursuant to Section 2.01. In connection with any such secured financing (a “Subscription Facility”), the Investor specifically agrees, for the benefit of the Company and such lenders, to the following:

(a)            The Company may incur indebtedness for Company purposes, including without limitation pursuant to a Subscription Facility, and secure such Subscription Facility by (i) the Unused Capital Commitments, (ii) the Company’s rights to issue Drawdown Notices and receive payment therefor, (iii) the Company’s right to exercise remedies against the Investors and the Other Investors for failure to pay for such Shares as required by the Drawdown Notices, (iv) the deposit account into which the payments for such Shares will be wired, and (v) any related collateral and proceeds thereof, (b) the Investor acknowledges and agrees that the lender (or agent for the lenders) under a Subscription Facility is relying on each Investor’s Unused Capital Commitment as its primary source of repayment and may issue future Drawdown Notices and may exercise all remedies of the Company with respect thereto as part of such lenders’ (or such lenders’ agents’) remedies under the Subscription Facility, (c) in the event of a failure by any Investor to pay for such Shares, each of the Company and such lender (or agent for such lender) is entitled to pursue any and all remedies available to it under this Subscription Agreement, including issuing additional Drawdown Notices to non-Defaulting Investors in order to make up any deficiency caused by the default of the Investor, whose ownership in the Company would be diluted as a result, (d) the Investor agrees that its obligation to fund Drawdown Notices pursuant to Section 2.01 is irrevocable, and shall be without setoff, counterclaim or defense of any kind, including any defense pursuant to Section 365 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (other than any defenses provided hereunder), (e) the Investor has received full and adequate consideration on the date hereof for its Shares that are to be paid and issued in subsequent installments, and any defense of non-consideration or similar defenses for its subscription are hereby waived by the Investor, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceedings or otherwise, including any failure or inability of the Company to issue Shares or for any such Shares to have positive value on the date of a Drawdown Notice, (f) the Company may use the proceeds of any Share issuance for repaying outstanding loans under the Subscription Facility, (g) the Investor agrees that the Company may reveal the Investor’s identity, this Subscription Agreement and any side letter or similar arrangement with the Investor on a confidential basis to the lenders (or agents for the lenders) under a Subscription Facility, if so required under the terms of such Subscription Facility, (h) upon the reasonable request of the Company, the Investor will, as soon as reasonably practicable, provide the Company with copies of its publicly available financial statements to enable the Company to comply with underwriting requests from any lender (or agent for such lender) under a Subscription Facility and take such further action as may be reasonably requested by the Company to consummate the financing contemplated in this Section 2.02, (i) any claim the Investor may have against the Company or another Investor in the Company shall be subordinate to any claim a lender (or agent for such lender) under the Subscription Facility may have against the Company or such Investor, (j) from time to time upon request, the Investor will provide to any lender under a Subscription Facility a certificate setting forth such Investor’s then Unused Capital Commitment, (k) it acknowledges and confirms that the terms of the applicable Subscription Facility and each other agreement executed in connection therewith can be modified (including, without limitation, increases, decreases or renewals of credit extended, or the release of any guarantee or security) without further notice to such Investor and without its consent; provided, however, that in no event shall any such modification of any such document alter an Investor’s rights or obligations hereunder without such Investor’s written consent, (l) each Investor acknowledges that the making and performance of its obligations hereunder constitute private and commercial acts rather than governmental or public acts, and that neither it nor any of its properties or revenues has any right of immunity from suit, court jurisdiction, execution of a judgment or from any other legal process with respect to its obligations hereunder, and to the extent that it may hereafter be entitled to claim any such immunity, or to the extent that there may be attributed to it such an immunity (whether or not claimed), unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company, it hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity, (m) upon the withdrawal or transfer of the Investor’s interest in the Company in accordance with the terms hereof, such Investor acknowledges that it may be required at the time of such withdrawal or transfer to fund a Drawdown Notice to repay amounts outstanding under the Subscription Facility equal to its share thereof; provided that such Investor shall not be required to fund a Drawdown Notice in excess of its Unused Capital Commitment, and (n) that the lenders (or agents for the lenders) under a Subscription Facility are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement who may rely on the Investor’s agreements in this Section 2.02 in providing a Subscription Facility to the Company.

(a)            The Company represents and warrants that it shall not make any distributions consisting of securities that are not Marketable Securities except in connection with liquidation distributions in accordance with Maryland General Corporation Law. “Marketable Securities” means securities which are traded or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Market or on a comparable securities market or exchange now or in the future.

Article III.

Section 3.01          Remedies Upon Investor Default. In the event that an Investor fails to pay all or any portion of the Drawdown Purchase Price due from such Investor on any Drawdown Date (such amount, together with the full amount of such Investor’s remaining Capital Commitment, a “Defaulted Commitment”) and such default remains uncured for a period of 10 Business Days, the Company shall be permitted to declare such Investor to be in default of its obligations under this Subscription Agreement (any such Investor, a “Defaulting Investor”) and shall be permitted to pursue one or any combination of the following remedies:

(a)             The Company may prohibit the Defaulting Investor from purchasing additional Shares on any future Drawdown Date;

(b)            The Company may offer up to 25% of the Defaulting Investor’s Shares (the “Offered Shares”) first, to the Other Investors (other than any defaulting Other Investors) and if such Other Investors do not purchase all of such Offered Shares, to third parties for purchase at a price equal to the lesser of the then net asset value of such Shares or the highest price reasonably obtainable by the Company, subject to such other terms as the Company in its discretion shall determine, which offer(s) shall be binding upon the Defaulting Investor if the purchasing Other Investors or third parties agree to assume the related Capital Commitment with respect to such Shares of the Defaulting Investor, including any portion then due and unpaid, and the Company pursuant to its authority under Section 5.01 may execute on behalf of the Defaulting Investor any documents necessary to effect the Transfer (as defined herein) of the Defaulting Investor’s Shares pursuant to this Section 3.01(b); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Subscription Agreement, no Shares shall be transferred to any Other Investor pursuant to this Section 3.01(b) in the event that such Transfer (as defined in herein) would (x) violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), the 1940 Act or any state (or other jurisdiction) securities or “Blue Sky” laws applicable to the Company or such Transfer (as defined in Section 4.01(c)(1), or (y) constitute a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under Section 406 of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or Section 4975 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)(it being understood that this proviso shall operate only to the extent useful to avoid the occurrence of the consequences contemplated herein);

(c)            The Company may pursue any other remedies against the Defaulting Investor available to the Company, subject to applicable law. The Investor agrees that this Section 3.01 is solely for the benefit of the Company and shall be interpreted by the Company against a Defaulting Investor in the discretion of the Company. The Investor further agrees that the Investor cannot and shall not seek to enforce this Section 3.01 against the Company or any shareholder in the Company; and

(d)           The Company shall be authorized to issue additional Drawdown Notices to non-Defaulting Investors to make up for any short-fall caused by a Defaulting Investor’s failure to fund any Drawdown Notice, provided that no Investor shall be obligated to fund more than its then Unused Capital Commitment.

Article IV.

(a)           This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Investor and, upon due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, will constitute the valid and legally binding agreement of the Investor enforceable in accordance with its terms against the Investor, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies, as from time to time in effect.

(b)           The Investor is acquiring the Shares for the Investor’s own account as principal for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof.

(c)

(1)          The Investor understands that the offering and sale of the Shares are intended to be exempt from registration under the 1933 Act, applicable U.S. state securities laws and the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions by virtue of the private placement exemption from registration provided in Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act, exemptions under applicable U.S. state securities laws and exemptions under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions, and it agrees that any Shares acquired by the Investor may not be sold, offered for sale, exchanged, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of (each, a “Transfer”) in any manner that would require the Company to register the Shares under the 1933 Act, under any U.S. state securities laws or under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions.

(2)          The Investor understands that the Company requires each investor in the Company to be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the 1933 Act (“Accredited Investor”) and the Investor represents and warrants that it is an Accredited Investor.

(3)          The Investor understands that the offering and sale of the Shares in non-U.S. jurisdictions may be subject to additional restrictions and limitations, and represents and warrants that it is acquiring its Shares in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and other legal requirements applicable to the Investor including, without limitation, the legal requirements of jurisdictions in which the Investor is resident and in which such acquisition is being consummated. Furthermore, the Investor understands that all offerings and sales made outside the United States will be made pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act.

(2)          The Investor is aware and understands that there are other substantial restrictions on the transferability of Shares or Capital Commitment under this Subscription Agreement, the Operative Documents and under applicable law including, but not limited to, the fact that (a) there is no established market for the Shares and it is possible that no public market for the Shares will develop; (b) the Shares are not currently, and Investors have no rights to require that the Shares be, registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of the various states of the United States or any non-U.S. jurisdiction and therefore cannot be transferred unless subsequently registered or unless an exemption from such registration is available; and (c) the Investor may have to hold the Shares herein subscribed for and bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely, and it may not be possible for the Investor to liquidate its investment in the Company. The Investor acknowledges that it has no need for liquidity in this investment, has the ability to bear the economic risk of this investment, has the ability to retain its Shares for an indefinite period and at the present time and in the foreseeable future can afford a complete loss of this investment.

(3)          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subscription Agreement, the Investor covenants that it will not Transfer all or any part of the Shares or its Capital Commitment (or purport to do so) if such Transfer would cause (A) the Company or the Adviser to be in violation of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act, as amended, the U.S. Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, as amended, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “USA PATRIOT Act”), as amended, or any similar U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. law or regulation (collectively, “Anti-Money Laundering Laws”); or (B) the Shares to be held by a country, territory, entity or individual currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”) or any entity or individual that resides or has a place of business in, or is organized under the laws of, a country or territory that is subject to any sanctions administered by OFAC.

The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares. The Investor has evaluated the risks of investing in the Company, understands there are substantial risks of loss incidental to the purchase of Shares, and has determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for the Investor. The Investor has no need for liquidity in the investment, can afford a complete loss of the investment in the Shares and can afford to hold the investment for an indefinite period of time.

(k)           The Investor was offered the Shares through private negotiations, not through any general solicitation or general advertising and in the state listed in the Investor’s permanent address set forth in the Investor Profile Form. Other than as set forth herein and in the Operative Documents, the Investor is not relying upon any information (including, without limitation, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, and any seminars or meetings whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or advertising) provided by the Company, the Adviser, any affiliate of the foregoing or any agent of them, written or otherwise, in determining to invest in the Company and the Investor understands that the Disclosure Package and the information contained therein is not intended to convey tax or legal advice. The Investor has consulted to the extent deemed appropriate by the Investor with the Investor’s own advisers as to the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and other matters concerning an investment in Shares and on that basis understands the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and other consequences of an investment in Shares, and believes that an investment in the Shares is suitable and appropriate for the Investor.

(l)            The Investor has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Adviser, the Company and their respective personnel relating to the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the purchase of Shares and other matters pertaining to this investment, and has had access to such financial and other information concerning the Company as it has considered necessary to verify the accuracy of any information provided and to make a decision to invest in the Company, and has availed itself of this opportunity to the full extent desired.

(m)          No representations or warranties have been made to the Investor with respect to this investment, the Adviser or the Company other than the representations of the Company set forth herein and in the Operative Documents and the Investor has not relied upon any representation or warranty not provided herein or in the Operative Documents in making this subscription.

(n)           Representations for Non-U.S. Persons:

(1)          If the Investor is not a “United States Person,” as defined in Appendix C hereto, the Investor has heretofore notified the Company in writing of such status.

(2)          The Investor will notify the Company immediately if the Investor becomes a United States Person.

(3)          The Investor represents and warrants that the Investor is acquiring the Shares for its own account for investment purposes only and is not subscribing on behalf of or funding its commitment with funds obtained from a United States Person.

(4)          Except for offers and sales to discretionary or similar accounts held for the benefit or account of a non-U.S. Person by a U.S. dealer or other professional fiduciary, all offers to sell and offers to buy the Interest were made to or by the Investor while the Investor was outside the United States and at the time the Investor’s order to buy the Shares originated (and at the time this Subscription Agreement was executed by the Investor) the Investor was outside the United States.

(o)

(1)          Neither the Investor, nor any of its affiliates or beneficial owners (which for this purpose does not include the Investor’s Plan participants or beneficiaries), (A) appears on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of OFAC, nor are they otherwise a party with which any entity is prohibited to deal under the laws of the United States, or (B) is a person identified as a terrorist organization on any other relevant lists maintained by governmental authorities. The Investor further represents and warrants that the monies used to fund the investment in the Shares are not derived from, invested for the benefit of, or related in any way to, the governments of, or persons within, any country (1) under a U.S. embargo enforced by OFAC, (2) that has been designated as a “non-cooperative country or territory” by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering or (3) that has been designated by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury as a “primary money laundering concern.” The Investor further represents and warrants that the Investor: (I) has conducted thorough due diligence with respect to all of its beneficial owners, (II) has established the identities of all beneficial owners and the source of each of the beneficial owner’s funds and (III) will retain evidence of any such identities, any such source of funds and any such due diligence. Pursuant to anti-money laundering laws and regulations, the Company may be required to collect documentation verifying the Investor’s identity and the source of funds used to acquire Shares before, and from time to time after, acceptance by the Company of this Subscription Agreement. Investor further represents and warrants that the Investor does not know or have any reason to suspect that (x) the monies used to fund the Investor’s investment in the Shares have been or will be derived from or related to any illegal activities, including, but not limited to, money laundering activities, and (y) the proceeds from the Investor investment in the Shares will be used to finance any illegal activities.

(2)         The Investor will provide to the Company at any time such information as the Company determines to be necessary or appropriate (A) to comply with the anti-money laundering laws, rules and regulations of any applicable jurisdiction and (B) to respond to requests for information concerning the identity of Investor from any governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or financial institution in connection with its anti-money laundering compliance procedures, or to update such information.

(3)          To comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations, all payments and contributions by the Investor to the Company and all payments and distributions to the Investor from the Company will only be made in the Investor’s name and to and from a bank account of a bank based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States or that is regulated in and either based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States and that is not a “foreign shell bank” within the meaning of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. § 5311 et seq.), as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, as such regulations may be amended from time to time.

(4)          The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.01(o) shall be deemed repeated and reaffirmed by the Investor to the Company as of each date that the Investor is required to make a capital contribution to, or receives a distribution from, the Company. If at any time during the term of the Company, the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.01(o) cease to be true, the Investor shall promptly so notify the Company in writing.

(5)          The Investor understands and agrees that the Company may not accept any amounts from a prospective Investor if such prospective Investor cannot make the representations set forth in this Section 4.01(o).

(p)           In the event that the Investor is, receives deposits from, makes payments to or conducts transactions relating to, a non-U.S. banking institution (a “Non-U.S. Bank”) in connection with the Investor’s investment in Shares, such Non-U.S. Bank: (i) has a fixed address, other than an electronic address or a post office box, in a country in which it is authorized to conduct banking activities, (ii) employs one or more individuals on a full-time basis, (iii) maintains operating records related to its banking activities, (iv) is subject to inspection by the banking authority that licensed it to conduct banking activities and (v) does not provide banking services to any other Non-U.S. Bank that does not have a physical presence in any country and that is not a registered affiliate.

(q)           The Investor agrees and acknowledges that, among other remedial measures, (A) in order to comply with governmental regulations, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that such action is in the best interests of the Company, the Company may “freeze the account” of the Investor, either by prohibiting additional investments by the Investor, segregating assets of the Investor and/or suspending other rights the Investor may have under the Operative Documents and (B) the Company may be required to report such action or confidential information relating to the Investor (including without limitation, disclosing the Investor’s identity) to regulatory authorities.

(r)            None of the information concerning the Investor nor any statement, certification, representation or warranty made by the Investor in this Subscription Agreement or in any document required to be provided under this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the Investor Profile Form) and any forms W-9 or W-8 (W-8BEN, X-0XXX-X, X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-8EXP) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading.

(s)            The Investor agrees that the foregoing certifications, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall survive the acceptance of this subscription, the first Drawdown Date and the dissolution of the Company, without limitation as to time. Without limiting the foregoing, the Investor agrees to give the Company prompt written notice in the event that any statement, certification, representation or warranty of the Investor contained in this Article IV or any information provided by the Investor herein or in any document required to be provided under this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the Investor Profile Form and any forms W-9 or W-8 (W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY and W-8EXP)) ceases to be true at any time following the date hereof.

(t)            The Investor agrees to provide such information and execute and deliver such documents as the Company or the Adviser may reasonably request to verify the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties herein or to comply with any law or regulation to which the Company, the Adviser or a portfolio company may be subject.

(u)           The Investor understands that the Company intends to file elections to be treated as (i) a business development company under the 1940 Act and (ii) a regulated investment company within the meaning of Section 851 of the Code, for U.S. federal income tax purposes; pursuant to those elections, the Investor will be required to furnish certain information to the Company as required under Treasury Regulations § 1.852-6(a) and other regulations. If the Investor is unable or refuses to provide such information directly to the Company, the Investor understands that it will be required to include additional information on its income tax return as provided in Treasury Regulation § 1.852-7. The Company has filed a registration statement on Form 10 (the “Form 10”) for the common stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). The Form 10 is not the offering document pursuant to which the Company is conducting this offering and may not include all information regarding the Company contained in the Disclosure Package or other Operative Documents; accordingly, Investors should rely exclusively on information contained in the Operative Documents, in making their investment decisions.

(v)           The Investor acknowledges that, in order to comply with the provisions of the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) and avoid the imposition of U.S. federal withholding tax, the Company may, from time to time, require further information and/or documentation from the Investor and, if and to the extent required under FATCA, the Investor’s direct and indirect beneficial owners (if any) (which for this purpose does not include the Investor’s plan participants or beneficiaries), relating to or establishing any such owner’s identity, residence (or jurisdiction of formation), income tax status, and other required information and may provide or disclose such information and documentation to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The Investor agrees that it shall provide such information and documentation concerning itself and its beneficial owners, if any, as and when requested by the Company sufficient for the Company to comply with its obligations under FATCA. The Investor acknowledges that, if the Investor does not provide the requested information and documentation, the Company may, at its sole option and in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, prohibit additional investments, decline or delay any redemption requests by the Investor and/or deduct from such Investor’s account and retain amounts sufficient to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all withholding taxes, interest, penalties and other losses or liabilities suffered by the Company on account of the Investor’s not providing all requested information and documentation in a timely manner, and to ensure that such withholding taxes, interest, penalties and other losses or liabilities are economically borne by the Investor. The Investor shall have no claim against the Company, the Administrator, the Adviser or any of their respective affiliates for any form of damages or liability as a result of any of the aforementioned actions in the absence of willful misconduct and/or negligence.

Section 4.02          ERISA Matters.

(a)            If the Investor is a “plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, and/or a “plan” that is subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 4975 of the Code, or an entity whose assets are treated as “plan assets” under Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations promulgated thereunder (each, a “Plan”), the person executing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of the Plan (the “Fiduciary”) represents and warrants that:

(1)           such person is a “fiduciary” of such Plan and trust and/or custodial account within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA, and/or Section 4975(e)(3) of the Code and such person is authorized to execute the Subscription Agreement;

(2)           unless otherwise indicated in writing to the Company, the Plan is not a participant-directed defined contribution plan;

(3)           the Fiduciary has considered a number of factors with respect to the Plan’s investment in the Shares and has determined that, in view of such considerations, the purchase of Shares is consistent with the Fiduciary’s responsibilities under ERISA. Such factors include, but are not limited to:

(i)            the role such investment or investment course of action plays in that portion of the Plan’s portfolio that the Fiduciary manages;

(ii)           whether the investment or investment course of action is reasonably designed as part of that portion of the portfolio managed by the Fiduciary to further the purposes of the Plan, taking into account both the risk of loss and the opportunity for gain that could result therefrom;

(iii)          the composition of that portion of the portfolio that the Fiduciary manages with regard to diversification;

(iv)          the liquidity and current rate of return of that portion of the portfolio managed by the Fiduciary relative to the anticipated cash flow requirements of the Plan;

(v)           the projected return of that portion of the portfolio managed by the Fiduciary relative to the funding objectives of the Plan; and

(vi)          the risks associated with an investment in the Company and the fact that the Investor has only limited withdrawal rights.

(4)            the investment in the Company and the appointment of the Adviser as an “investment manager” within the meaning of Section 3(38) of ERISA have been duly authorized under, and conform in all respects to, the documents governing the Plan and the Fiduciary;

(5)            the Fiduciary is: (a) responsible for the decision to invest in the Company; (b) independent of the Adviser and the Company; and (c) qualified to make such investment decision;

(6)            if the investing Plan is an ERISA Plan, then, in the event that, and during any period when, the assets of the Company are treated as “plan assets” of such investing ERISA Plan, the investment in the Company constitutes the appointment by the Fiduciary, in accordance with the written instruments governing the investing ERISA Plan, of the Adviser (who hereby acknowledges its status as a fiduciary under Section 3(21) of ERISA) as an “investment manager” as defined in Section 3(38) of ERISA, with respect to the assets of such ERISA Plan that are invested in the Company;

(7)           (a) none of the Adviser, any of its employees or affiliates: (i) manages any part of the Investor’s investment portfolio on a discretionary basis; (ii) regularly gives investment advice with respect to the assets of the Investor; (iii) has an agreement or understanding, written or unwritten, with the Investor under which the latter receives information, recommendations or advice concerning investments that are used as a primary basis for the Investor’s investment decisions; or (iv) has an agreement or understanding, written or unwritten, with the Investor under which the latter receives individualized investment advice concerning the Investor’s assets; OR

(b) (i) the Fiduciary, who is independent of the Adviser has studied the Disclosure Package and has made an independent decision to purchase Shares solely on the basis of the information contained in the Disclosure Package and without reliance on any other information or statements as to the appropriateness of this investment for the Investor; and (ii) the Investor represents and warrants that neither the Adviser nor any of its employees or affiliates: (A) has exercised any investment discretion or control with respect to the Investor’s purchase of Shares; (B) has authority, responsibility to give, or has given individualized investment advice with respect to the Investor’s purchase of the Shares; or (C) is the employer maintaining or contributing to such Plan; and

(8)            no Plan investment guidelines, restrictions or proxy voting policies otherwise applicable to the assets of the Investor shall apply to the assets invested in the Company except as the Investor and the Adviser may agree from time to time.

(b)            The Fiduciary agrees, at the request of the Company, to furnish the Company with a true and complete list of all fiduciaries with authority to select and retain the Shares as an investment for the Investor and such fiduciaries’ “affiliates”. For purposes of this item, an “affiliate” of a person includes (i) any person directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the person; (ii) any corporation, partnership, trust or unincorporated enterprise of which such person is an officer, director, 10% or more partner, or highly compensated employee as defined in Section 4975(e)(2)(H) of the Code (but only if the employer of such employee is the plan sponsor); and (iii) any director of the person, any highly compensated employee (as defined in Section 4975(e)(2)(H) of the Code) of the person, or any employee of the person who has direct or indirect authority, responsibility, or control regarding the custody, management or disposition of the plan assets involved in the transaction.

(c)            The Fiduciary agrees, at the request of the Company, to furnish the Company with such information as the Company may reasonably require to establish that the purchase of the Shares by an ERISA Plan and the transactions to be entered into by the Company do not violate any provision of ERISA or the Code, including those provisions relating to “prohibited transactions” by “parties in interest” or “disqualified persons” as defined therein.

(d)            The Fiduciary agrees to notify the Adviser promptly in writing should the Fiduciary become aware of any change in the information set forth in or required to be provided by Section 4.02(a).

(e)            If applicable, the Investor has identified its status as a Benefit Plan Investor (as defined below) to the Company in Section IV of the Investor Profile Form. If the Investor has identified to the Company in Section IV of the Investor Profile Form that it is not currently a Benefit Plan Investor, but becomes a Benefit Plan Investor, the Investor shall forthwith disclose to the Adviser promptly in writing such fact and also the percentage of the Investor’s equity interests held by Benefit Plan Investors. For these purposes, a “Benefit Plan Investor”, as defined under Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations promulgated thereunder, includes (a) an “employee benefit plan” that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA; (b) a “plan” that is not subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, but that is subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 4975 of the Code, such as individual retirement accounts and certain retirement plans for self-employed individuals; and (c) a pooled investment fund whose assets are treated as “plan assets” under Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations promulgated thereunder because “employee benefit plans” or “plans” hold 25% or more of any class of equity interest in such pooled investment fund. The Investor agrees to notify the Adviser promptly in writing if there is any change in the percentage of the Investor’s assets that are treated as “plan assets” for the purpose of Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations promulgated thereunder as set forth in Section IV of the Investor Profile Form.

(f)            If the Investor is an insurance company and is investing the assets of its general account (or the assets of a wholly owned subsidiary of its general account) in the Company, it has identified in Section IV of the Investor Profile Form whether the assets underlying the general account constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of Section 401(c) of ERISA. The Investor agrees to promptly notify the Adviser in writing if there is a change in the percentage of the general account’s assets that constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of Section 401(c) of ERISA and shall disclose such new percentage ownership.

(g)           The Adviser represents that, after giving effect to the Investors’ investment, the assets of the Company will not be treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA.

(h)           The Adviser agrees to provide the Investor with, as applicable (1) an initial opinion of law that the Company should qualify as a “venture capital operating company” (“VCOC”) and an annual VCOC certification that has been created after consultation with the Company’s ERISA counsel and that provides the Investor with sufficient detail to evaluate the plan asset status of the Company, or (2) an initial and annual certificate that participation in the Company by Benefit Plan Investors is not “significant” within the meaning of ERISA’s plan asset regulation.

(i)            The Adviser will immediately inform the Investor if there is a substantial likelihood that the assets of the Company will be treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA.

(j)            The Adviser agrees that, during any period in which the assets of the Company are treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA, the Adviser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Adviser (i) is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act and (ii) is a “qualified professional asset manager” within the meaning of Part VI of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 84-14 (a “QPAM”). The Adviser further agrees that during any period in which the assets of the Company are treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA (y) the Adviser is a fiduciary under ERISA and shall satisfy the requirements to be an “investment manager” (as that term is defined in Section 3(38) of ERISA) with respect to the Investor; and (z) the Adviser shall comply with the fiduciary requirements of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA in the management of the Company, including, but not limited to, the indicia of ownership obligations set forth in Section 404(b) of ERISA and the prohibited transaction provisions contained in Section 406 of ERISA.

(k)           The Adviser confirms that (i) the Investor shall not be obligated in connection with any borrowing by the Company, to (A) provide, execute or deliver any guaranty, warranty or indemnity, (B) deliver financial information to the Adviser or any lender which is not generally available to the public, or (C) execute or deliver any document, agreement, instrument or certificate which is inconsistent with the Investor’s rights and obligations under the Subscription Agreement, the Operative Documents, or applicable law, including ERISA; and (ii) the Investor shall not be obligated to provide for the benefit of any lender under any borrowing by the Company any opinions or certificates of counsel.

(l)            The Adviser agrees that notwithstanding anything in the Operative Documents to the contrary, in the event that the assets of the Company are treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA, the Company shall not provide exculpation to any person nor shall it indemnify any person to the extent such exculpation or indemnification would be prohibited by ERISA.

(m)           Upon request, the Adviser shall provide the Investor with information concerning the Company reasonably necessary to satisfy the Investor’s annual reporting requirements under ERISA. The Adviser agrees that the Investor, as a Benefit Plan Investor, may, without further notice to the Adviser, disclose confidential information about the Company, including but not limited to confidential information, to the extent legally necessary to satisfy the Investor’s annual Form 5500 reporting requirements under ERISA.

(n)           The Adviser will not provide the Investor with less detailed or less comprehensive information about the Company or investments than is provided to other Benefit Plan Investors.

(o)            In the event that the Adviser exercises its rights to require the Investor to withdraw or transfer its interest in the Company in order to avoid the assets of the Company being treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA, the Adviser agrees that it shall, to the extent applicable and practicable, act equally with respect to each similarly situated Benefit Plan Investor, pro rata according to each of their interest in the Company.

Section 4.03         Investor Awareness. The Investor acknowledges that the Investor is aware and understands that:

(a)            No federal or state agency, and no agency of any non-U.S. jurisdiction, has passed upon the Shares or made any finding or determination as to the fairness of this investment. The entirety of the Disclosure Package has not been filed with the SEC, any self-regulatory agency or with any securities administrator under state securities laws or the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction.

(b)           There are substantial risks incident to the purchase of Shares, including, but not limited to, those summarized in the Disclosure Package.

(c)            As described more fully in Appendix B, the Investor may not Transfer all or any fraction of its Shares or Capital Commitment without the prior written consent of the Company. There are other substantial restrictions on the transferability of Shares or Capital Commitment under the Charter, the Investment Advisory Agreement and under applicable law including, but not limited to, the fact that (i) there is no established market for the Shares and it is possible that no public market for the Shares will develop; (ii) the Shares are not currently, and Investors have no rights to require that the Shares be, registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of the various states or any non-U.S. jurisdiction and therefore cannot be Transferred unless subsequently registered or unless an exemption from such registration is available; and (iii) the Investor may have to hold the Shares herein subscribed for and bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely, and it may not be possible for the Investor to liquidate its investment in the Company.

(d)           With respect to the tax and other legal consequences of an investment in the Shares, the Investor is relying solely upon the advice of its own tax and legal advisors and not upon the general discussion of such matters set forth in the Disclosure Package.

(e)           The Company may request such additional information as it may deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire Shares and may request from time to time such information as it may deem necessary to determine the eligibility of the Investor to hold Shares or to enable the Company to determine the compliance of the Company or the Adviser with applicable regulatory requirements or the Company’s tax status, and the Investor agrees to promptly provide such information as may reasonably be requested.

(f)            All the agreements, representations and warranties made by the Investor in this Subscription Agreement (including all of its attachments) shall survive the execution and delivery hereof. The Investor shall immediately notify the Company upon discovering that any of the representations, warranties or covenants made herein was false when made or if, as a result of changes in circumstances, any of the representations, warranties or covenants made herein become false.

(g)           Dechert LLP (“Dechert”) acts as U.S. counsel to the Company, the Adviser and their Affiliates. In connection with this offering of Shares and subsequent advice to such persons, Dechert will not represent the Investor or any other investors in the Company in the absence of a clear and explicit written agreement to such effect between such counsel and the Investor. In the absence of such an agreement, such counsel owes no duties to the Investor or any other investor in the Company (whether or not such counsel has in the past represented, or is currently representing, such Investor or any other investor with respect to other matters). No independent counsel has been retained to represent investors in the Company.

Section 4.04          Company Representations. Each of the Company and the Adviser, as applicable, represents to the Investor as follows:

(a)            The Company is empowered, authorized and qualified to enter into this Agreement, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement, and the person signing this Agreement, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement on behalf of the Company has been duly authorized by the Company to do so.

(b)            The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement by the Company and the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder and thereunder do not and will not result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, note or other evidence of indebtedness, or any lease or other agreement, or any license, permit, franchise or certificate, to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its properties are subject, or require any authorization or approval under or pursuant to any of the foregoing, violate the organizational documents of the Company, or violate in any material respect any statute, regulation, law, order, writ, injunction or decree to which the Company is subject.

(c)            The Company is not in default (nor has any event occurred which with notice, lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) in the performance of any obligation, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, note or other evidence of indebtedness or any lease or other agreement or understanding, or any license, permit, franchise or certificate, to which it is a party or by which it is bound or to which its properties are subject, nor is it in violation of any statute, regulation, law, order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree to which it is subject, which default or violation would materially adversely affect the business or financial condition of the Company or impair the Company’s ability to carry out its obligations under this Agreement or the Investment Advisory Agreement.

(d)            There is no litigation, investigation or other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company that, if adversely determined, would materially adversely affect the business or financial condition of the Company or the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement.

(e)            None of the information concerning the Company or the Adviser, nor any statement, certification, representation or warranty made by the Company or the Adviser in this Subscription Agreement, contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein not misleading.

(f)            The Shares to be issued and sold by the Company to the Investor hereunder have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against payment therefore as provided in this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
