Section 1.04 Collateral Value Calculation Procedures..

In connection with all calculations required to be made pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Scheduled Distributions on any Collateral Obligations, or any payments on any other assets included in the Collateral, with respect to the sale of and reinvestment in Collateral Obligations, and with respect to the income that can be earned on Scheduled Distributions on such Collateral Obligations and on any other amounts that may be received for deposit in the Collection Account, the provisions set forth in this Section 1.04 shall be applied. The provisions of this Section 1.04 shall be applicable to any determination or calculation that is covered by this Section 1.04, whether or not reference is specifically made to Section 1.04, unless some other method of calculation or determination is expressly specified in the particular provision.

(a) All calculations with respect to Scheduled Distributions on the Collateral Obligations securing the Advances shall be made on the basis of information as to the terms of each of such Collateral Obligations and upon reports of payments, if any, received on such Collateral Obligations that are furnished by or on behalf of the Obligor of such Collateral Obligations and, to the extent they are not manifestly in error, such information or reports may be conclusively relied upon in making such calculations.

(b) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests, except as otherwise specified in the Coverage Tests, such calculations will not include ticking fees in respect of Collateral Obligations, and other similar fees, unless or until such fees are actually paid.

(c) For each Collection Period and as of any date of determination, the Scheduled Distribution on any Collateral Obligations (other than Defaulted Loans, which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have Scheduled Distributions of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and collections to be received during such Collection Period in respect of such Collateral Obligations (including the proceeds of the sale of such Collateral Obligations received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to be received during the Collection Period) and not reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 10.02 that, if received as scheduled, will be available in the Collection Account at the end of the Collection Period and (ii) any such amounts received in prior Collection Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Payment Date or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 10.02.

(d) Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to a Collateral Obligation shall be assumed to be received on the applicable Due Date, and each such Scheduled Distribution shall be assumed to be immediately deposited in the Collection Account to earn interest at the Assumed Reinvestment Rate (as determined on each relevant date of determination). All such funds shall be assumed to continue to earn interest until the date on which they are required to be available in the Collection Account for application, in accordance with the terms hereof, to payments of principal of or interest on the Advances or other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) References in the Priority of Payments to calculations made on a "pro forma basis" shall mean such calculations after giving effect to all payments, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, that precede (in priority of payment) or include the clause in which such calculation is made.

(f) For purposes of calculating all Concentration Limitations, in both the numerator and the denominator of any component of the Concentration Limitations, Defaulted Loans will be treated as having a Principal Balance equal to zero, except that Defaulted Loans that are also Eligible Senior Secured Loans will be treated as having a Principal Balance equal to the lesser of (i) the Market Value of such Defaulted Loan determined without reference to clause (d) of the definition thereof, unless the Appraised Value of such Defaulted Loan has otherwise been obtained or updated (A) within the immediately preceding three months and (B) since such Defaulted Loan became defaulted, whichever of (A) and (B) is shorter (as determined by the Collateral Manager with notice to the Agents), and (ii) 20% of the Aggregate Principal Balance of such Defaulted Loan.

(g) Except as otherwise provided herein, Defaulted Loans will not be included in the calculation of the Collateral Quality Tests.

(h) For purposes of determining the Minimum Weighted Average Spread Test (and related computations of stated interest coupons and Aggregate Funded Spread), capitalized or deferred interest (and any other interest that is not paid in cash) will be excluded.

(i) Except as otherwise expressly set forth with respect to substitutions in Section 10.01(a)(vi), references in this Agreement to the Borrower's "purchase" or "acquisition" of a Collateral Obligation include references to the Borrower's acquisition of such Collateral Obligation by way of contribution from any Equity Owners thereof. Portions of the same Collateral Obligation acquired by the Borrower on different dates (whether through purchase or receipt by contribution, but excluding subsequent draws under Revolving Collateral Loans or Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans) will, for purposes of determining the purchase price of such Collateral Obligation, be treated as separate purchases on separate dates (and not a weighted average purchase price for any particular Collateral Obligation). The "purchase price" for any Collateral Obligation acquired from an Affiliate of the Borrower, paid in the aggregate in the form of cash and/or a contribution to the capital of the Borrower, shall be consistent with the amount that would be paid in an arms-length transaction with a non-Affiliate.

(j) For the purposes of calculating compliance with each of the Concentration Limitations all calculations will be rounded to the nearest 0.01%.

(k) Any Specified Change that results in the transfer or release of all or substantially all of the assets securing a Collateral Obligation shall, for purposes of the Concentration Limitations, result in the recategorizing of such Collateral Obligation as an Unsecured Loan.

(l) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests, the Advance Rate Test, the Commitment Shortfall Test, the Concentration Limits, the Collateral Quality Tests and the EOD OC Ratio, the effect of the acquisition or disposition of Collateral Loans and Eligible Investments shall be calculated on a trade date basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded Loan shall not be included in any calculations of the Coverage Tests, the Advance Rate Test, the Commitment Shortfall Test, the Concentration Limits, the Collateral Quality Tests and the EOD OC Ratio.

Article II

REVOLVING ADVANCES AND TERM LOAN ADVANCES UNDER THE FACILITY

Section 2.01 Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facility.

On the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, including Article III:

(a) each Revolving Lender (i) has made, pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, certain advances to the Borrower from the Original Closing Date to the Restatement Effective Date which remain outstanding and (ii) severally agrees to continue to make advances to the Borrower (each existing and future revolving advance described in subclauses (i) and (ii), a "Revolving Advance") from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Second Restatement Effective Date until the Commitment Termination Date, in each case in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding such Revolving Lender's Commitment and, as to all Revolving Lenders, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, that no such Revolving Advances and no prepayment of any Revolving Advances shall be made on the Business Day immediately preceding (but not including) any Payment Date.

(b) each Term Lender severally agrees to make advances to the Borrower (each, a "Term Loan Advance" and, together with the Revolving Advances, the "Advances") on each Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date in the applicable Required Conversion Amount and in an aggregate principal amount up to but not exceeding such Term Lender's Commitment and, as to all Term Lenders, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not exceeding the Total Term Loan Commitment on such Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date. As of the Second Restatement Effective Date, the Term Lenders has made a Term Loan Advance in the amount of $50,000,000 on the Stage 1 Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date.

Each such borrowing of a Revolving Advance on any single day is referred to herein as a "Revolving Borrowing"; each such borrowing of a Term Loan Advance on any single day is referred to herein as a "Term Borrowing"; and Revolving Borrowings and Term Borrowings are referred to herein collectively as "Borrowings".

Within such limits and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow (and, with respect to Revolving Advances, re-borrow) any Advances under this Section 2.01 and prepay such Advances under Section 2.05. For the avoidance of doubt, Term Loan Advances once repaid may not be re-borrowed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.01 or any other provision herein or in any other Facility Document to the contrary, on each Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date, the Revolving Advances outstanding as of such date shall without further action or consent of any kind be converted to Term Loan Advances in an amount equal to the Required Conversion Amount (which Required Conversion Amount shall be allocated to each Revolving Lender proportionately based on the outstanding principal balance of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advances to the total aggregate outstanding principal balance of Revolving Advances at such time) and, upon such conversion, (i) each Term Lender shall fund its Percentage of the applicable Required Conversion Amount in accordance with Section 2.02(c) (and the Collateral Agent shall remit these amounts to the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.02(e)) and (ii) the Borrower shall make a corresponding deposit into the Principal Collection Subaccount to repay each Revolving Lender in an amount equal to its Percentage of the Required Conversion Amount (and the Collateral Agent shall remit these amounts to each Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 8.02(e)); provided, however, that any amounts described in subclauses (i) and (ii) shall automatically be netted if a Revolving Lender is also a Term Lender on such Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date; provided, further, that each Revolving Lender and the Borrower shall cooperate to evidence the repayment and cancellation of any Revolving Note, as well as the issuance of any Term Note pursuant to Section 2.03(c). For all purposes hereunder, the Revolving Advances converted on each Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date shall constitute and be referred to as a Term Loan Advance hereunder (each such Term Loan Advance referred to herein at times as a "Converted Revolving Advance"). On each Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date, the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall automatically be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of all Converted Revolving Advances and converted into Term Loan Advances on such date.

Section 2.02 Advances.

(a) If the Borrower desires to make a Revolving Borrowing under this Agreement, it shall give each Lender and the Facility Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) a written notice (each, a "Notice of Borrowing") for such Revolving Borrowing (which notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt by the Facility Agent) not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days prior to the day of the requested Revolving Borrowing.

Each Notice of Borrowing shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, dated the date the request for the related Revolving Borrowing is being made, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, and otherwise be appropriately completed. The proposed Borrowing Date specified in each Notice of Borrowing shall be a Business Day falling on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, and the amount of the Revolving Borrowing requested in such Notice of Borrowing (the "Requested Amount") shall be equal to at least $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the remaining unfunded Revolving Commitments hereunder).

(b) Each Revolving Lender shall not later than 2:00 p.m. on each Borrowing Date in respect of a Revolving Advance make its Percentage of the applicable Requested Amount available to the Borrower by disbursing such funds in Dollars to the Principal Collection Subaccount.

(c) In accordance with Section 2.01 hereof, without further action or consent of any kind, each Term Lender shall not later than 2:00 p.m. on any Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date in respect of a Converted Revolving Advance make its Percentage of the applicable Required Conversion Amount available to the Borrower by disbursing such funds in Dollars to the Principal Collection Subaccount; provided that if any Term Lender is also a Revolving Lender, it shall net the Borrower's repayment of its Percentage of the Required Conversion Amount.

Section 2.03 Evidence of Indebtedness; Revolving Notes and Term Notes.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to it and resulting from the Advances made by such Lender to the Borrower, from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest thereon and paid to it, from time to time hereunder.

(b) Any Lender may request that its Commitment to the Borrower be evidenced by a Revolving Note or Term Note, as applicable. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Note or Term Note, as applicable, payable to such Lender and otherwise appropriately completed. Thereafter, the Advances of such Lender evidenced by such Revolving Note or Term Note, as applicable, and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.06(a)) be represented by a Revolving Note or Term Note payable to such Lender (or registered assigns pursuant to Section 12.06(a)), except to the extent that such Lender (or assignee) subsequently returns any such Revolving Note or Term Note, as applicable, for cancellation and requests that such Advances once again be evidenced as described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.03.

(c) With respect to any Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date, each Revolving Lender that holds a Revolving Note in respect of a Converted Revolving Advance shall cooperate with the Borrower to either (i) deliver such Revolving Note for cancellation to the extent that the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender is terminated in full or (ii) make a notation on Schedule I to the Revolving Note to reduce the principal amount of Revolving Advances outstanding thereunder in respect of any Converted Revolving Advances, and simultaneously with any such cancellation or notation described in subclauses (i) and (ii) above, the Borrower shall cooperate with each respective Term Lender to execute and deliver a Term Note in respect of the Converted Revolving Advance that is payable to such Term Lender.

Section 2.04 Payment of Principal and Interest on the Advances.

The Borrower shall pay principal and interest on the Advances as follows:

(a) 100% of the outstanding principal amount of each Advance, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be payable on the Final Maturity Date.

(b) Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i) Base Rate Advances. While an Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the applicable Facility Margin Level.

(ii) Eurodollar Rate Advances. While an Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum for each Interest Accrual Period for such Advance equal to the sum of LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period plus the applicable Facility Margin Level.

(iii) CP Rate Advances. While an Advance is a CP Rate Advance, (i) a rate per annum for each Interest Accrual Period for such Advance equal to the CP Rate for such Interest Accrual Period plus the applicable Facility Margin Level; and (ii) each CP Rate Advance funded by a CP Conduit through its liquidity provider shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Accrual Period for such Advance equal to the sum of LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period plus the applicable Facility Margin Level, for each day in such Interest Accrual Period prior to the day on which such funding has been refinanced through the issuance of Commercial Paper at the CP Rate for the remainder of such Interest Accrual Period plus the applicable Facility Margin Level.

All Advances shall constitute CP Rate Advances if made by a CP Conduit established or administered by Natixis, New York Branch and Eurodollar Rate Advances if made by any other Lender (subject to their conversion to Base Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.11), provided that, in the event the Borrower is no longer able to borrow CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances as a result of the occurrence of any of the circumstances set forth in Section 2.11, the Borrower may request Base Rate Advances hereunder until such time as Eurodollar Rate Advances are available.

The Calculation Agent shall provide notice to the Facility Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and the Collateral Manager of any and all LIBOR rate sets on the date that any such rate set is determined. Each CP Conduit (or its administrator) shall notify the Facility Agent, the Calculation Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower and the Collateral Manager of the CP Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period on or prior to the related Determination Date in connection with the provision of its invoice or otherwise upon written request. The CP Rate for each CP Conduit shall be calculated, for each day during the period between the date of such notice and the last day of each Interest Accrual Period (the "Estimate Period"), on the basis of such CP Conduit's good faith estimate of its funding costs for such Estimate Period, and the amount of interest payable to such CP Conduit in respect of the following Interest Accrual Period shall be increased by the amount, if any, by which interest at the actual CP Rates for such CP Conduit for the Estimate Period exceeds the amount estimated or shall be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the amount of interest at the estimated CP Rates for such Estimate Period exceeds the amount of interest accrued at the actual CP Rates. However, on the Final Maturity Date of the Advances, any such increase or decrease that would be due pursuant to the preceding sentence shall instead be settled and paid on such Final Maturity Date. Each CP Conduit shall supply a reconciliation of such amounts as provided in this Section 2.04(b) for each such period to the Facility Agent, the Borrower and the Collateral Manager and, absent manifest error, such reconciliation shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. The interest rate payable to a CP Conduit shall reflect proportionately the different sources of funding used during each Interest Accrual Period by the CP Conduit to finance its outstanding revolving loans.

(c) Accrued interest on each Advance shall be payable in arrears (x) on each Payment Date, and (y) on each date of prepayment of principal thereof, on the principal amount so prepaid to but excluding the date of prepayment.

(d) Subject in all cases to Section 2.04(f), the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Obligations, including the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Advances and accrued interest thereon, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof (including Section 2.15), under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment (other than payment) which the Borrower or any other Person may have or have had against any Secured Party or any other Person.

(e) As a condition to the payment of principal of and interest on any Advance without the imposition of withholding tax, each Agent and the Borrower may require certification acceptable to such Agent or the Borrower from any recipient to enable the Borrower and the Agents to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that they may be required to deduct or withhold from payments in respect of such Advance under any present or future law or regulation of the United States and any other applicable jurisdiction, or any present or future law or regulation of any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements under any such law or regulation.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of the Borrower only payable solely from the Collateral and, following realization of the Collateral, and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the Priority of Payments and, subject to Section 2.12, all obligations of and any claims against the Borrower hereunder or in connection herewith after such realization shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, Affiliate, member, manager, agent, partner, principal or incorporator of the Borrower or their respective successors or assigns (any "Related Person") for any amounts payable under this Agreement. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this clause (f) shall not (i) prevent recourse to (x) the Collateral for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral or (y) any Affiliate of the Borrower under any Facility Document to which it is party thereto or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by this Agreement until such Collateral has been realized. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this clause (f) shall not limit the right of any Person to name the Borrower as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under this Agreement, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Related Person.

Section 2.05 Prepayment of Advances.

(a) Optional Prepayments. Other than in connection with a Payment in Full and termination of the Facility which is subject to Section 2.06(b), the Borrower may from time to time on any Business Day other than the Business Day immediately preceding any Payment Date, voluntarily prepay the Revolving Advances and/or the Term Loan Advances together with accrued interest thereon in whole or in part using Principal Proceeds, without penalty or premium; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Lenders and the Facility Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) written notice of such prepayment (such notice, a "Notice of Prepayment") in the form of Exhibit C hereto not later than 12:00 noon on the Business Day that is (i) in the case of CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Advances, one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such Notice of Prepayment shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt and shall be dated the date such notice is being given, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and otherwise appropriately completed. Each prepayment of any Advance by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall in each case be in a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire outstanding principal amount of the related type of Advances of the Borrower. If a Notice of Prepayment is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any optional prepayment of Revolving Advances may be re-borrowed in accordance with Section 2.02. Term Loan Advances once repaid may not be re-borrowed.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Advances and/or the Term Loan Advances and make deposits in the Revolving Reserve Account on each Payment Date in the manner and to the extent provided in the Priority of Payments. The Borrower shall provide, in each Payment Date Report, notice of the aggregate amounts of the Revolving Advances and/or the Term Loan Advances that are to be prepaid on the related Payment Date and amounts to be deposited in the Revolving Reserve Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay, subject to the automatic netting of amounts between any Revolving Lender that is also a Term Lender, (i) $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Advances outstanding on the Stage 1 Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date, if applicable and (ii) the entire aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Advances outstanding on the Stage 2 Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date, and in either case, re-issue such Revolving Advances as Term Loan Advances in accordance with Section 2.01 and Section 2.03(c). Term Loan Advances once repaid may not be re-borrowed.

(c) Additional Prepayment Provisions. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be (i) subject to Sections 2.04(c) and 2.10 and (ii) applied to the Advances of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages.

Section 2.06 Reductions in Commitments.

(a) Automatic Reduction and Termination. The Total Commitment (and the applicable Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment of each Term Lender or Revolving Lender) shall be automatically reduced (i) in part, with respect to the Term Commitment of each Term Lender, to the extent provided in connection with any optional or mandatory prepayments of Term Loan Advances made pursuant to Section 2.05(a) or Section 2.05(b), as applicable, and (ii) to zero at the close of business on the Commitment Termination Date. The Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Total Commitment if, to the extent that after giving effect to such reduction or termination, a Commitment Shortfall shall exist.

(b) Optional Termination in Whole. Prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower shall have the right at any time to terminate the Commitments in their entirety upon not less than 5 Business Days' prior notice to the Lenders and the Facility Agent of any such termination, which notice shall specify the effective date of such termination, provided that Payment in Full (excluding any amount owed to the Subordinated Noteholders) occurs on such date. The Borrower may use amounts in the Covered Accounts to effect any such Payment in Full. Such notice of termination shall be irrevocable and effective only upon receipt and shall terminate and cancel the Commitments of each Lender on the date specified in such notice.

(c) Optional Reductions in Part. Prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower shall have the right at any time to reduce permanently in an aggregate amount of at least $10,000,000 the unused amount of the Total Commitment or any portion thereof upon not less than 5 Business Days' prior notice to the Lenders and the Facility Agent of any such reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date of such reduction, the amount of any such reduction and the allocation to the Term Commitment and/or Revolving Commitment, as applicable, provided that no such reduction will reduce the Total Commitments below the aggregate principal amount of Advances outstanding at such time. Any such notice of reduction shall be irrevocable.

(d) Effect of Termination or Reduction. Any reduction (i) with respect to the Term Commitment (and the Term Commitment of each Term Lender), pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i) or (ii) with respect to the Total Commitment (and the applicable Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment of each Term Lender or Revolving Lender), to the extent provided in connection with any optional reduction of the Total Commitment made pursuant to Section 2.06(c), once reduced may not be reinstated. Any termination of the Total Commitment (and the Commitment of each Lender) under Section 2.06(b) and Section 2.06 (c), once terminated may not be reinstated.

Section 2.07 Maximum Lawful Rate.

It is the intention of the parties hereto that the interest on the Advances shall not exceed the maximum rate permissible under Applicable Law. Accordingly, anything herein or in any Note to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event any interest is charged to, collected from or received from or on behalf of the Borrower by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto in excess of such maximum lawful rate, then the excess of such payment over that maximum shall be applied first to the payment of amounts then due and owing by the Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement (other than in respect of principal of and interest on the Advances) and then to the reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Advances of the Borrower.

Section 2.08 Several Obligations.

The failure of any Lender to make any Advance to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Advance on such date, neither Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Lender to make any Advance, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make an Advance to be made by such other Lender.

Section 2.09 Increased Costs.

(a) Except with respect to Taxes which shall be governed exclusively by Section 12.03, and without duplication of amounts required to be paid or indemnified by Borrower pursuant to Section 12.04, if, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation, application or implementation of any Applicable Law (a "Regulatory Change") after the date hereof, or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or change in the interpretation, application or implementation of any guideline or request from any central bank or other Authority (whether or not having the force of law) after the date hereof, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Affected Person of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Advances to the Borrower, then the Borrower shall from time to time, on the Payment Dates (but subject in all cases to Section 2.04(f)), following such Affected Person's demand, pay in accordance with the Priority of Payments to such Affected Person such additional amounts as may be sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for such increased cost. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by an Affected Person (with a copy to the Agents and DBRS), shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of (A) the Xxxx–Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith (the "Xxxx-Xxxxx Act"), (B) Article 404 of the CRR and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith, (C) any law, request, rule, guideline or directive promulgated by the Bank of International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III ("Basel III"), (D) the EU Directive 2011/61/EU on Alternative Investment Fund Managers (as amended from time to time and as implemented by Member States of the European Union) together with any implemented or delegated regulation, technical standards and guidance related thereto as may be amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time ("AIFMD"), (E) the final rule titled Risk-Based Capital Guidelines; Capital Adequacy Guidelines; Capital Maintenance: Regulatory Capital; Impact of Modifications to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; Consolidation of Asset-Backed Commercial Paper Programs; and Other Related Issues, adopted by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Department of the Treasury; Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation; and Office of Thrift Supervision, Department of Treasury on December 15, 2009 (the "FAS 166/167 Regulatory Capital Rules"), or any rules, regulations, guidance, interpretations or directives from bank regulatory agencies promulgated in connection therewith and (F) any existing or future rules, regulations, guidance, interpretations or directives from the U.S. bank regulatory agencies relating to the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act, Basel III, Article 404 of the CRR, AIFMD or FAS 166/167 Regulatory Capital Rules (whether or not having the force of law), and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall be deemed to have been introduced after the Original Closing Date, thereby constituting a Regulatory Change hereunder with respect to the Affected Parties as of the Original Closing Date, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be responsible for any increased costs relating to Article 404 of the CRR and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith so long as the Borrower is in compliance with Section 5.01(l) hereunder.

(b) If an Affected Person determines that (i) the applicability of any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted after the date hereof pursuant to or arising out of Basel III or (ii) the adoption after the date hereof of any other law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy affecting such Affected Person or any holding company for such Affected Person or (iii) compliance, implementation or application, whether commenced prior to or after the date hereof, by any Affected Person with the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act, Basel III, Article 404 of the CRR, AIFMD or FAS 166/167 Regulatory Capital Rules or any rules, regulations, guidance, interpretations or directives from bank regulatory agencies promulgated in connection therewith or (iv) any change arising after the date hereof in the foregoing or in the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (v) compliance by any Affected Person (or any lending office of such Affected Person), or any holding company for such Affected Person which is subject to any of the capital requirements described above, with any request or directive issued after the date hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, (A) affects the amount of capital required to be maintained by such Affected Person and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Affected Person's Commitment under this Agreement or upon such Affected Person's making, funding or maintaining Advances or (B) reduces the rate of return of an Affected Person to a level below that which such Affected Person could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into consideration such Affected Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then the Borrower shall from time to time, on the Payment Dates (but subject in all cases to Section 2.04(f)), following such Affected Person's demand, pay in accordance with the Priority of Payments such additional amounts which are sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for such increase in capital or reduced return. If any Affected Person becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09(b), it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Agents and DBRS) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail such amounts submitted to the Borrower by an Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the Borrower's obligation to pay additional amounts to a Lender pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 2.09, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different lending office if such designation would reduce or obviate the obligations of the Borrower to make future payments of such additional amounts; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no unreimbursed cost or legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably determined by such Lender), with the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such provision.

Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the Borrower's obligation to pay additional amounts to a Lender pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 2.09, the Borrower shall have the right to replace such Lender (the "Replaced Lender") with one or more other assignees meeting the requirements set forth in Section 12.06 hereof which will not result in additional amounts being payable pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 2.09 (collectively, the "Replacement Lender"), provided that (i) all fees and expenses incurred by the Replaced Lender in connection with such assignment shall be paid by the Borrower and (ii) the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Advances of the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Advances of the Replaced Lender and all related fees and expenses in connection with the Facility Documents.

Section 2.10 Compensation; Breakage Payments.

The Borrower agrees to compensate each Affected Person from time to time, on the Payment Dates, following such Affected Person's written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), in accordance with the Priority of Payments, for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Affected Person to lenders of funds borrowed by the Borrower to make or carry a CP Rate Advance or a Eurodollar Rate Advance made to the Borrower and any loss sustained by such Affected Person in connection with the re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits or margin), which such Affected Person may sustain: (i) if for any reason (including any failure of a condition precedent set forth in Article III but excluding a default by the applicable Lender) a Borrowing of any CP Rate Advance or Eurodollar Rate Advance by the Borrower does not occur on the Borrowing Date specified therefor in the applicable Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Borrower, (ii) if any payment, prepayment or conversion of any of the Borrower's CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances occurs on a date that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Accrual Period, (iii) if any payment or prepayment of any CP Rate Advance or Eurodollar Rate Advance is not made on any date specified in a Notice of Prepayment given by the Borrower, (iv) if any Eurodollar Rate Advance is converted into a Base Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of the Interest Accrual Period therefor or (v) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrower to repay its CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances when required by the terms of this Agreement. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.10 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Agents and DBRS, and accompanied by a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts and a description of the basis for requesting such amounts) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.11 Illegality; Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for a Lender to (i) honor its obligation to make CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, or (ii) maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Agents and the Borrower thereof (with a copy to DBRS), and such Lender's obligation to make or maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, and such Lender's outstanding CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Advances on the date that such Lender shall specify to the Agents and the Borrower. Promptly after the reason for such suspension no longer applies, the Lender shall send written notice to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower, at which time, as soon as reasonably practicable after such Lender has specified to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower that it may again make and maintain such Advances, all outstanding Base Rate Advances shall be converted back into CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, as applicable.

(b) Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to a Lender's suspending its obligation to make or maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, as applicable pursuant to Section 2.11(a), such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different lending office if such designation would enable such Lender to again make and maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances ,as applicable; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no unreimbursed cost or material legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably determined by such Lender), with the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such provision.

(c) Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to a Lender's suspending its obligation to make or maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall have the right to replace such Lender (the "Replaced Lender") with one or more other assignees meeting the requirements set forth in Section 12.06 hereof and whose obligation to make or maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances is not suspended (collectively, the "Replacement Lender"), provided that (i) all fees and expenses incurred by the Replaced Lender in connection with such assignment shall be paid by the Borrower and (ii) the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Advances of the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Advances of the Replaced Lender and all related fees and expenses in connection with the Facility Documents.

(d) If prior to the first day of any Interest Accrual Period, (i) the Lender determines and notifies the Calculation Agent that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the rate for such Interest Accrual Period for any CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, or (ii) the Facility Agent determines and notifies the Calculation Agent that the CP Rate or Eurodollar Rate with respect to such Interest Accrual Period for any CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, as applicable does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Calculation Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower, the Agents, each Lender and DBRS. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, as applicable, shall be suspended until the Lender or Facility Agent, as applicable revokes such notice, and all outstanding CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, as applicable, shall be converted into Base Rate Advances on the date that such Lender or Facility Agent, as applicable, shall specify to the Borrower. Promptly After the reason for such suspension no longer applies, the Lender or Facility Agent, as applicable, shall send written notice to the Borrower, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Calculation Agent and each Lender, at which time, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, all outstanding Base Rate Advances shall be converted back into CP Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances, as applicable.

Section 2.12 Rescission or Return of Payment.

The Borrower agrees that, if at any time (including after the occurrence of the Final Maturity Date) all or any part of any payment theretofore made by it to any Secured Party or any designee of a Secured Party is or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates), the obligation of the Borrower to make such payment to such Secured Party shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, to the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence and this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such obligations, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 2.13 Fees Payable by Borrower.

(a) The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to each Lender, other than a Defaulting Lender, a commitment fee (a "Commitment Fee") as set forth in the Second Restatement Fee Letter. Commitment Fees accrued during each Collection Period shall be payable in accordance with Section 9.01(a) on the related Payment Date.

(b) All payments by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Section 2.13 shall be made in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

Section 2.15 Payments Generally.

(a) All amounts owing and payable to any Secured Party, any Affected Person or any Indemnified Party, in respect of the Advances and other Obligations, including the principal thereof, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses or other amounts payable under this Agreement, shall be paid by the Borrower (through the Collateral Agent) to the applicable recipient in Dollars, in immediately available funds, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and all without counterclaim, setoff, deduction, defense, abatement, suspension or deferment. Each Lender shall provide wire instructions to the Borrower and the Collateral Agent. Payments received after 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day will be deemed to have been paid on the next following Business Day.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all computations of interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed in computing interest on any Advance, the date of the making of an Advance shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided that, if an Advance is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day's interest shall be paid on such Advance. All computations made by the Calculation Agent or the Facility Agent under this Agreement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.16 Lenders Not Satisfying the Rating Criteria.

If and for so long as any Lender fails to satisfy the Rating Criteria, such Lender may deposit, in accordance with Section 8.03(c), an amount equal to such Lender's undrawn Commitment at such time in the appropriate Lender Funding Subaccount, and all principal payments in respect of the Advances which would otherwise be made to such Lender shall be diverted to the appropriate Lender Funding Subaccount, in accordance with Section 8.03(c), and any amounts in such Lender Funding Subaccount shall be applied to any future funding obligations of such Lender. If, within 20 Business Days after the date as of which any Lender has ceased to satisfy the Rating Criteria, such Lender has not deposited an amount equal to such Lender's undrawn Commitment in the appropriate Lender Funding Subaccount, (i) the Facility Agent will provide written notice thereof to DBRS, and (ii) the Borrower may, at its option, replace such Lender (all the costs incurred by the Borrower in connection with such replacement being for the account of such Lender) with another entity that meets the Rating Criteria and that is eligible to be an assignee of the Commitments under the terms of this Agreement (by requiring the replaced Lender to transfer all of its rights and obligations in respect of its Commitment to the transferee entity at a price equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Advances of the replaced Lender). Each of the Collateral Agent, the Facility Agent and the Lender being replaced will agree to cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Borrower for the purpose of effecting such transfer.

Section 2.17 Applicable Row Level.

The Borrower or the Collateral Manager may specify a different Applicable Row Level than the one currently selected by the Collateral Manager by delivery of written notice to the Agents (with a copy to DBRS, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders), signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower or Collateral Manager, as applicable, upon not more than five Business Days and not less than one Business Day prior to the day on which such different Applicable Row Level is to become effective for purposes of the Matrix certifying that (i) each Collateral Quality Test is satisfied at such time, (ii) each Coverage Test is satisfied at such time, (iii) the Row Advance Rate that is in use at such time equals or exceeds the Portfolio Advance Rate at such time; and (iv) no Commitment Shortfall exists at such time, together with a report demonstrating compliance with each requirement set forth in the aforementioned clauses (i) through (iv) as well as compliance with all columns in the Matrix for the proposed Applicable Row Level.

Section 2.18 Additional Advances.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower shall have the right, at any time during the Reinvestment Period, to incur additional indebtedness in the form of a one time only increase to the Revolving Commitment and/or the Term Commitment (such increase, an "Increased Commitment" and any loans made to the Borrower pursuant to such Increased Commitment, "Additional Advances") by notice to the Agents and DBRS, up to an aggregate maximum amount equal to $50,000,000; provided that (i) the Borrower shall satisfy the conditions of Section 3.05 (including the DBRS rating letter described in 3.05(e)), (ii) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000; (iii) the net proceeds of any Additional Advances are used (x) to purchase or originate additional Collateral Obligations, (y) to pay fees and expenses of the Agents in connection therewith and/or (z) as Principal Proceeds for purposes permitted hereunder; and (iv) the written consent of the Lenders has been obtained.

(b) The terms and conditions (other than the Facility Margin Level) of the Additional Advances issued pursuant to this Section 2.18 will be identical to those of the initial Advances (except that the interest due on the Additional Advances will accrue from the issue date of such Additional Advances). Interest on the Additional Advances will be payable commencing on the first applicable Payment Date following the issue date of such Additional Advances. The Additional Advances will rank pari passu in all respects with the initial Advances.

(c) Any Increased Commitment issued pursuant to this Section 2.18 will be offered first to the existing Lenders, in such amounts as are necessary to preserve their pro rata holdings of the Advances.

(d) Each Additional Lender shall satisfy the Rating Criteria and, upon the making of an Additional Advance or the extension of an Increased Commitment, shall be deemed to be a Lender for all purposes hereunder.

Section 2.19 Issuance of Subordinated Notes..

On the Second Restatement Effective Date, in consideration for the reduction of the value of a portion of its Equity by the Equity Owner pursuant to the subscription and exchange agreement entered into between the Borrower and the Equity Owner, the Borrower shall issue Subordinated Notes to the Equity Owner with an initial principal amount equal to $15,000,000. Unless a Subordinated Noteholder requests to receive a definitive Subordinated Note, Subordinated Notes will be uncertificated interests recorded on the Borrower Register. If any Subordinated Noteholder requests a definitive Subordinated Note, the Borrower shall execute a definitive Subordinated Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A-3 hereto and deliver such definitive Subordinated Note to such Subordinated Noteholder.

Section 2.20 Payments of Interest on the Subordinated Notes.

(a) The Subordinated Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at an interest rate of 5.0% per annum and such interest will be payable in arrears on each Payment Date on the principal amount thereof on the first day of the related Interest Accrual Period (after giving effect to payments of principal thereof on such date), except as otherwise set forth below. Payment of interest on the Subordinated Notes will be subordinated to the payment of principal and interest on the Advances. Any payment of interest due on Subordinated Notes on any Payment Date to the extent sufficient funds are not available to make such payment in accordance with the Priority of Payments on such Payment Date shall constitute "Deferred Interest". Deferred Interest on the Subordinated Notes shall be payable on the first Payment Date on which funds are available to be used for such purpose in accordance with the Priority of Payments, but in any event no later the Final Maturity Date. To the extent that funds are not available on any Payment Date (other than with respect to the Final Maturity Date) to pay previously accrued Deferred Interest, such previously accrued Deferred Interest will not be due and payable on such Payment Date and any failure to pay such previously accrued Deferred Interest on such Payment Date will not be an Event of Default. Interest will cease to accrue on the Subordinated Notes or, in the case of a partial repayment, on such repaid part, from the date of repayment. To the extent lawful and enforceable, (x) interest on Deferred Interest with respect to the Subordinated Notes and (y) interest on any interest that is not paid when due and payable on the Subordinated Notes shall accrue at 5.0% per annum.

"Special Purpose Entity" means a limited liability company or other business entity that is created with the purpose of being "bankruptcy remote" and whose organizational documents contain restrictions on its activities and impose requirements intended to preserve such entity's separateness that are substantially similar to the special purpose provisions of the Borrower LLC Agreement.

Without limiting anything in the Borrower LLC Agreement, in the event that the manager of the Borrower intends to appoint a new independent manager or independent director, the manager or sole member of the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Facility Agent not less than ten days prior to the effective date of such appointment and shall certify in such notice that the designated Person satisfies the Independent Manager Criteria, provided that, if:

(i) an independent manager or independent director of the Borrower dies, becomes incapacitated or no longer is employed by the firm that is then providing independent managers or independent directors for the Borrower; or

(ii) the firm referred to in clause (i) is no longer in the business of providing independent managers or independent directors for Special Purpose Entities generally,

(either of the circumstances in clause (i) or (ii) above, an "Unexpected Replacement") then the manager or sole member of the Borrower shall (A) provide written notice to the Facility Agent as soon as possible thereafter and (B) unless the Facility Agent otherwise objects in writing within 10 days of receipt of such notice, promptly appoint a new independent manager or independent director from the same firm as the deceased or incapacitated or formerly employed independent manager or independent director (in the case of clause (i)) or from another firm that is in the business of providing independent managers or directors for Special Purpose Entities generally (in the case of clause (ii)), in each case as to which the manager or sole member of the Borrower shall certify that the designated Person satisfies the Independent Manager Criteria.

The Borrower hereby confirms that, since the Original Closing Date and as of the Second Restatement Effective Date, each independent manager or independent director of the Borrower (initially, Xxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx) satisfies the Independent Manager Criteria.

(v) Changes to Related Documents. The Borrower shall not enter into any amendment, consent, waiver or other modification with respect to a Related Document without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent if such amendment, consent, waiver or other modification would effect a Specified Change, other than any Specified Change resulting from an amendment that the Borrower voted against or withheld its consent (a "Related Document Modification"); provided that during the Reinvestment Period the consent of the Facility Agent shall not be required if, after giving effect to such Related Document Modification, (w) the relevant Collateral Obligation would be eligible to be acquired by the Borrower hereunder, (x) a DBRS Rating is obtained, or updated, for such Collateral Obligation, (y) all Coverage Tests and Collateral Quality Tests would be satisfied (or if any such Collateral Quality Test is not satisfied, such Collateral Quality Test shall be maintained or improved) and (z) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; provided further that if the Borrower requests the consent of the Facility Agent in connection with a Related Document Modification and the Borrower does not receive a response (either consenting or declining to consent) from the Facility Agent within 10 Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Facility Agent shall be deemed to have consented to the relevant action.

(w) Investments; Retention of Funds.

(i) The Borrower shall not make any investment or acquire any property other than in (A) Collateral Obligations, (B) Eligible Investments and (C) any Equity Securities.

(ii) All Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds will be applied by the Borrower (or the Collateral Agent on its behalf) only as provided in Sections 2.05, 2.06 and 9.01 and in Article X.

(x) Hedge Agreements. The Borrower shall not enter into any hedge agreement without (i) the prior written consent of the Facility Agent and (ii) obtaining a Rating Confirmation.

The Borrower shall have legal, equitable and beneficial interest in the Payment Account in accordance with this Agreement and the Priority of Payments.

(b) Custodial Account.

The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds credited to a Lender Funding Subaccount shall be as specified in this Section 8.03(c).

(iii) With respect to any Lender, the deposit of any funds in the applicable Lender Funding Subaccount by such Lender shall not constitute a Borrowing by the Borrower and shall not constitute a utilization of the Commitment of such Lender, and the funds so deposited shall not constitute principal outstanding under the Advances. However, from and after the establishment of a Lender Funding Subaccount, the obligation of such Lender to advance funds as part of any Borrowing under this Agreement shall be satisfied by the Collateral Agent withdrawing funds from such Lender Funding Subaccount in the amount of such Lender's pro rata share of such Borrowing as directed by the Facility Agent. All payments of principal from the Borrower with respect to Advances made by such Lender (whether or not originally funded from such Lender Funding Subaccount) shall be made by depositing the related funds into such Lender Funding Subaccount and all other payments from the Borrower (including without limitation all interest and Commitment Fees) shall be made to such Lender in accordance with the order specified in the Priority of Payments.

If the sum of the amount of funds on deposit in the applicable Lender Funding Subaccount with respect to such Lender as of such date exceeds such Lender's undrawn Commitment at such time (whether due to a reduction in the Total Commitment or otherwise), then the Collateral Agent shall remit to such Lender a portion of the funds then held in the related Lender Funding Subaccount in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

116

(v) If at any time a Lender provides written notice to the Borrower and the Agents that it no longer wishes to maintain funds in its Lender Funding Subaccount, then all funds then held in the relevant Lender Funding Subaccount (after giving effect to any Borrowings in respect of the Advances that are to be made on such date) shall be withdrawn from such Lender Funding Subaccount and remitted to such Lender, and thereafter all payments with respect to Advances made by such Lender shall be paid directly to such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided that such Lender has provided prior written notice to DBRS and the Collateral Agent and is no longer subject to Section 2.16.

(vi) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, for so long as any amounts are on deposit in any Lender Funding Subaccount, the Collateral Agent shall invest and reinvest such funds in the BNY Mellon Cash Reserve, which is an Eligible Investment of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition of the term "Eligible Investments" that mature overnight. Interest received on such Eligible Investments shall be retained in such Lender Funding Subaccount and be invested and reinvested as aforesaid. Any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to such Lender Funding Subaccount, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to such Lender Funding Subaccount. None of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager or the Collateral Agent shall in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency of such Lender Funding Subaccount resulting from any loss relating to any such investment.

(d) Excess Concentration Loan Account.

All Monies deposited from time to time in the Excess Concentration Loan Account pursuant to this Agreement shall be held by the Collateral Agent as part of the Collateral and shall be applied to the purposes herein provided. If the Borrower receives any Excess Concentration Principal Proceeds directly, the Borrower shall remit any such Excess Concentration Principal Proceeds to the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof.

117

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall transfer to the Principal Collection Subaccount any Excess Concentration Principal Proceeds remaining on deposit in the Excess Concentration Loan Account on the Determination Date following deposit of such Excess Concentration Principal Proceeds to the extent that such amounts have not been distributed pursuant to Section 9.01(d).

Section 8.04 The Revolving Reserve Account; Fundings.

In accordance with this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement, the Collateral Agent, on or prior to the Original Closing Date, has established at the Custodian a single, segregated securities account held in trust and titled the "WhiteHorse Finance Warehouse, LLC Revolving Reserve Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent", which has been designated as the "Revolving Reserve Account", which has been and shall be maintained by the Borrower with the Custodian in accordance with the Account Control Agreement and which has been and shall be subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent.

Upon the purchase of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loan or Revolving Collateral Loan or, if necessary, within two Business Days following the Commitment Termination Date, funds shall be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent at the direction of the Collateral Manager from the Principal Collection Subaccount and deposited in the Revolving Reserve Account, (i) during the Reinvestment Period, in an amount sufficient to ensure no Commitment Shortfall exists as of such time, and (ii) at all times, within two Business Days after the last day of the Reinvestment Period, equal to the aggregate unfunded commitments in respect of all Revolving Collateral Loans and Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans; provided that, if funds in the Principal Collection Subaccount are not sufficient under this clause (ii) then an Advance under this Facility shall be made (the amount required to be on deposit at all times in the Revolving Reserve Account pursuant to such clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the "Revolving Reserve Required Amount").

Fundings of Revolving Collateral Loans and Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans shall be made using, first, amounts on deposit in the Revolving Reserve Account, then amounts on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount and finally, prior to or on the Commitment Termination Date, available Borrowings.

Amounts on deposit in the Revolving Reserve Account will be invested in overnight funds that are Eligible Investments selected by the Collateral Manager pursuant to Section 8.05, and earnings from all such investments will be deposited in the Interest Collection Subaccount as Interest Proceeds. So long as no Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(e) or (f) has occurred and is then continuing, all funds in the Revolving Reserve Account (other than earnings from Eligible Investments therein) will be available solely to cover drawdowns on the Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans and Revolving Collateral Loans; provided that, to the extent that the aggregate amount of funds on deposit therein at any time exceeds the Revolving Reserve Required Amount, the Collateral Manager shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing of the amount thereof, the Collateral Agent shall remit such excess to the Principal Collection Subaccount, and such amounts will be treated as Principal Proceeds.

118

Should any such specific Eligible Investment be unavailable, and in the absence of another proper investment instruction, all such funds shall be held uninvested. Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise herein, all interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited in the Interest Collection Subaccount, any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to the Principal Collection Subaccount upon receipt, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the Principal Collection Subaccount. The Collateral Agent shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency of such accounts which results from any loss relating to any such investment, except with respect to investments in obligations of the Collateral Agent or any Affiliate thereof.

(b) The Collateral Agent agrees to promptly give the Borrower any notice a Responsible Officer of it receives relating to any Covered Account or any funds on deposit in any Covered Account, or otherwise to the credit of a Covered Account, including any notice that states any Covered Account or any funds on deposit or otherwise credited to a Covered Account has become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.

The Monthly Report for a Monthly Report Period shall contain the information with respect to the Facility and the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments included in the Collateral set forth in Part 1 of Schedule 2 hereto, and shall be determined as of the Monthly Report Determination Date for such Monthly Report Period.

If such discrepancy cannot be promptly resolved, the Collateral Manager shall within one Business Day request that a firm of independent certified public accountants of nationally recognized standing appointed by the Borrower review such draft Monthly Report and the records of the Collateral Agent to determine the cause of such discrepancy. If such review reveals an error in the Monthly Report or the records of the Collateral Agent, the Monthly Report or the records of the Collateral Agent shall be revised accordingly and, as so revised, shall be utilized in making all calculations pursuant to this Agreement and notice of any error in the Monthly Report shall be sent as soon as practicable by the Borrower to all recipients of such report which may be accomplished by making a notation of such error in the subsequent Monthly Report.

As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the other Facility Documents, no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders; provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes such Agent, in its judgment, to personal liability, cost or expense or which is contrary to this Agreement, the other Facility Documents or Applicable Law, or would be, in its judgment, contrary to its duties hereunder, under any other Facility Document or under Applicable Law. Each Lender agrees that in any instance in which the Facility Documents provide that an Agent's consent may not be unreasonably withheld, provide for the exercise of such Agent's reasonable discretion, or provide to a similar effect, it shall not in its instructions (or, by refusing to provide instruction) to such Agent withhold its consent or exercise its discretion in an unreasonable manner.

Section 11.02 Delegation of Duties.

Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and each other Facility Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

137

Section 11.03 Agents' Reliance, Etc.

(a) Neither Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel for the Borrower or the Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates) and independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to any Secured Party or any other Person and shall not be responsible to any Secured Party or any Person for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Facility Documents; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement, the other Facility Documents or any Related Documents on the part of the Borrower, the Lenders or the Collateral Manager or any other Person or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Secured Party or any other Person for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Collateral, this Agreement, the other Facility Documents, any Related Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Facility Document by relying on, acting upon (or by refraining from action in reliance on) any notice, consent, certificate, instruction or waiver, report, statement, opinion, direction or other instrument or writing (which may be delivered by facsimile, email, cable or telex, if acceptable to it) believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed or sent by the proper party or parties. No Agent shall have any liability to the Borrower, the Collateral Manager or any Lender or any other Person for the Borrower's, Collateral Manager's or any Lender's, as the case may be, performance of, or failure to perform, any of their respective obligations and duties under this Agreement or any other Facility Document.

(b) No Agent shall be liable for the actions or omissions of any other Agent (including without limitation concerning the application of funds), or under any duty to monitor or investigate compliance on the part of any other Agent with the terms or requirements of this Agreement, any Facility Document or any Related Document, or their duties thereunder. Each Agent shall be entitled to assume the due authority of any signatory and genuineness of any signature appearing on any instrument or document it may receive (including, without limitation, each Notice of Borrowing received hereunder). No Agent shall be liable for any action taken in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within the powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it is governed, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby for such action (including without limitation for refusing to exercise discretion or for withholding its consent in the absence of its receipt of, or resulting from a failure, delay or refusal on the part of any Lender, the Borrower or the Collateral Manager to provide, written instruction to exercise such discretion or grant such consent from any such Lender, the Borrower or the Collateral Manager, as applicable). No Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith unless it shall be proven that such Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining the relevant facts. Nothing herein or in any Facility Documents or Related Documents shall obligate any Agent to advance, expend or risk its own funds, or to take any action which in its reasonable judgment may cause it to incur any expense or financial or other liability for which it is not indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction. No Agent shall be liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages (included but not limited to lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action. No Agent shall be charged with knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to a Responsible Officer of such Agent responsible for the administration of this Agreement, or unless and to the extent written notice of such matter is received by such Agent at its address in accordance with Section 12.02. Any permissive grant of power to an Agent hereunder shall not be construed to be a duty to act. Before acting hereunder, an Agent shall be entitled to request, receive and rely upon such certificates and opinions as it may reasonably determine appropriate with respect to the satisfaction of any specified circumstances or conditions precedent to such action.

138

(c) No Agent shall be responsible or liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters.

(d) To the extent required by any applicable law (or pursuant to a voluntary agreement entered into with the IRS or any other taxing authority), the Agents may withhold from any payment to any Lender or any Subordinated Noteholder an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax (including any taxes imposed in respect of, or in connection with, FATCA). If any payment has been made to any Lender or any Subordinated Noteholder by the Agents without the applicable withholding tax being withheld from such payment and the Agents have paid over the applicable withholding tax to the IRS or any other tax authority, or the IRS or any other tax authority asserts a claim that the Agents did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or any Subordinated Noteholder because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender or Subordinated Noteholder failed to notify the Agents of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender or Subordinated Noteholder shall indemnify the Agents fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agents as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. Each Lender and Subordinated Noteholder hereby authorizes the Agents to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Subordinated Noteholder under any Note, Facility Document, or otherwise payable by the Agents to the Lender or Subordinated Noteholder from any other source against any amount due to the Agents under this paragraph (d).

139

(ii) no Lender or Lenders shall be liable to the Collateral Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, claims, expenses or disbursements (for purposes hereof, "Liabilities") unless such Liabilities are imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Collateral Agent as a result of any action taken, or not taken, by the Collateral Agent at the direction of such Lender or Lenders, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise or to honor any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement at the request or direction of any of the Lenders (or other Persons authorized or permitted under the terms hereof to make such request or give such direction) pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents, unless such Lenders shall have provided to the Collateral Agent security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses (including reasonable and documented attorney's fees and expenses) and Liabilities which might reasonably be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction, whether such indemnity is provided under this Section 11.04 or otherwise).

The appointment of any successor Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 11.05(b) shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Facility Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Collateral Agent is removed pursuant to this Section 11.05(b), the Collateral Agent shall be removed in all other capacities in which it serves under this Agreement and under any of the other Facility Documents (including, without limitation, in its capacity as Calculation Agent and Custodian).

If the Borrower shall be required by law or in connection with FATCA (or by the interpretation or administration thereof) to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable by it hereunder, under any Note or under any other Facility Document to any Secured Party other than a Subordinated Noteholder, (i) if any such deductions are in respect of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 12.03) such Secured Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions in respect of Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, no increased amounts will be paid under this section 12.03 with respect to the Subordinated Notes.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to timely pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made by the Borrower hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Facility Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the Notes or under any other Facility Document except any such Taxes that are Other Connection Taxes (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

146

(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each of the Secured Parties for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 12.03), together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom, paid by any Secured Party in respect of the Borrower, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted. Payments by the Borrower pursuant to this indemnification shall be made promptly following the date the Secured Party makes written demand therefor, which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate describing in reasonable detail the basis thereof. Such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) The Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Secured Party, or pay any additional amounts to any Secured Party, in respect of United States federal withholding tax or United States federal backup withholding tax to the extent that (i) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Secured Party to comply with paragraphs (g) or (h) below, except to the extent that the relevant Lender's assignor or transferor (if any) was entitled at the time of assignment or transfer to receive an increased amount under paragraph (c) with respect to such Indemnified Taxes; provided that, any Indemnified Taxes resulting from any change in law (or interpretation, administration or application of any law or treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority) after the date such relevant Lender becomes a Lender shall be compensated pursuant to paragraph (c) above or (ii) such amount is imposed under FATCA.

(e) Promptly after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to each Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant Authority evidencing payment thereof (or other evidence of payment as may be reasonably satisfactory to such Agent).

(f) If any payment is made by or on behalf of the Borrower to or for the account of any Secured Party after deduction for or on account of any Taxes or Other Taxes, and an indemnity payment or additional amounts are paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 12.03, then, if such Secured Party in its sole discretion exercised in good faith determines that it has received a refund of such Taxes or Other Taxes, such Secured Party shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund, reimburse to the Borrower such amount of any refund received (net of out-of-pocket expenses incurred) as such Secured Party shall determine in its reasonable discretion to be attributable to the relevant Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that in the event that such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing Authority, the Borrower agrees to return the refund to such Secured Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the Secured Party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the Secured Party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Secured Party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

147

(g) Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent or the Custodian) that is a United States person as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "U.S. Person") hereby agrees that it shall, no later than the Original Closing Date or, in the case of a Secured Party that becomes a party hereto after the Original Closing Date or pursuant to Section 12.06, the date upon which such Secured Party becomes a party hereto, deliver to each Agent and the Borrower, if applicable, two accurate, complete and signed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or successor form, certifying that such Secured Party is a U.S. Person under the Code and on the date of delivery thereof entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax or, after any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority, the greatest amount of such exemption as is then available to be claimed by such Lender. Each Secured Party that is not a U.S. Person under the Code (a "Non-U.S. Lender") shall deliver, no later than the Original Closing Date or, in the case of a Secured Party that becomes a party hereto after the Original Closing Date or pursuant to Section 12.06, the date upon which such Secured Party becomes a party hereto, to each Agent and the Borrower two properly completed and duly executed originals of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form X-0XXX, X-0XXX-X, X-0XXX or W-8IMY or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto or other applicable forms prescribed by the IRS, in each case, claiming complete exemption from, U.S. Federal withholding tax (other than any tax imposed under FATCA) with respect to payments hereunder or, after any change after the date it became a Lender or Subordinated Noteholder under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority, the greatest amount of such exemption as is then available to be claimed by such Lender or Subordinated Noteholder. In addition, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, such Non-U.S. Lender hereby represents, and will provide a certification, that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code), and such Non-U.S. Lender agrees that it shall promptly notify each Agent and the Borrower in the event any such representation is no longer accurate. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender and U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms as promptly as practicable after receipt of a written request therefor from an Agent or the Borrower (but only if such Non-U.S. Lender is legally able to deliver such forms). Each Lender and Subordinated Noteholder agrees that when it is aware that a change in circumstances has rendered any previous delivered documentation pursuant to this paragraph (g) obsolete or inaccurate, it shall notify the Borrower and each Agent in writing and promptly deliver to the Borrower and each Agent a properly completed and executed documentation as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement to a continued exemption from or reduction in Tax, if that Lender or Subordinated Noteholder continues to be so entitled to such exemption or reduction.

148

(h) If any Lender requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Secured Party or any taxing Authority for the account of any Lender or to indemnify a Secured Party pursuant to this Section 12.03, then such Secured Party shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such Lender determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.09 or Section 12.03, as the case may be, 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 Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the Borrower's obligation to pay additional amounts to a Lender pursuant to this Section 12.03(h), the Borrower shall have the right to replace such Lender with one or more other assignees meeting the requirements set forth in Section 12.06 hereof which will not result in additional amounts being payable pursuant to this Section 12.03(h), provided that (i) all fees and expenses incurred by such replaced Lender in connection with such assignment shall be paid by the Borrower and (ii) the assignee(s) shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Advances of such replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Advances of the replaced Lender and all related fees and expenses in connection with the Facility Documents.

(i) If a payment made to a Lender or Subordinated Noteholder under any Note or other Facility Document would be subject to United States federal withholding 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 Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and each Agent (at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or an Agent) such documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or an Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or an Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine either that such Lender or Subordinated Noteholder has complied with such Lender's or Subordinated Noteholder's obligations under FATCA or the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (i), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(j) Nothing in this Section 12.03 shall be construed to require the Secured Party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

Section 12.04 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) The Borrower agrees to promptly pay on demand all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents in connection with the administration and any waiver, consent, modification, amendment or similar agreement in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Facility Document and advising the Agents as to their respective rights, remedies and responsibilities. The Borrower agrees to promptly pay on demand all costs and expenses of each of the Secured Parties (other than the Subordinated Noteholders) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes, any Related Document or any other Facility Document, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one outside counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for each of the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection therewith.

149

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Secured Party (other than the Subordinated Noteholders) and each of their Affiliates and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, managers of, and any Person controlling any of, the foregoing (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, expenses, penalties, actions, suits, judgments and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, administration of or otherwise arising out of or incurred in connection with this Agreement, any other Facility Document, any Related Document (and, in the case of any Related Document, only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby (and regardless of whether or not any such transactions are consummated) (collectively, the "Liabilities"), including any such Liability that is incurred or arises out of or in connection with, or by reason of, any one or more of the following: (i) preparation for a defense of any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with this Agreement, any other Facility Document, any Related Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) any breach or alleged breach of any covenant by the Borrower contained in any Facility Document; (iii) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Borrower contained in any Facility Document or in any certificate, statement or report delivered in connection therewith is, or is alleged to be, false or misleading; (iv) any failure by the Borrower to comply with any Applicable Law or contractual obligation binding upon it; (v) any failure to vest, or delay in vesting, in the Secured Parties a first-priority perfected security interest in all of the Collateral free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens; (vi) any action or omission, not expressly authorized by the Facility Documents or otherwise permitted or required by the Facility Documents, by the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower which has the effect of reducing or impairing the Collateral or the rights of the Agents or the Secured Parties with respect thereto; and (vii) any Default or Event of Default; except to the extent any such Liability is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct provided that any payment hereunder which related to taxes, levies, imposes, deductions, charges and withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and expenses) with respect thereto, or additional sums described in Section 12.03, shall be covered by Section 12.03 and shall not be covered by this Section 12.04(b).

Section 12.05 Execution in Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 12.06 Assignability; Participation; Register.

(a) Each Lender may assign to an assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its outstanding Advances or interests therein owned by it, together with ratable portions of its Commitment); provided that:

(i) if such assignment occurs prior to the Commitment Termination Date, such assignee satisfies the Rating Criteria at the time of the assignment (except in the case of an assignment to the Facility Agent);

(ii) such assignment is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the Securities Act and such laws, and is made only to (A) either an "accredited investor" as defined in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3), or (7) of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any entity in which all of the equity owners are entities described within such paragraphs) or to a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and (B) a "qualified purchaser" for purposes of the Investment Company Act;

(iii) the Facility Agent has consented thereto;

(iv) any assignment of a Revolving Commitment that occurs prior to the Stage 2 Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date and involves a Revolving Lender that is also a Term Lender, shall require that such Lender assign a pro rata share of its Term Commitment at the time of such assignment;

(v) any assignment by a Revolving Lender of its Revolving Commitment or its Revolving Advances prior to the Stage 2 Mandatory Revolving Conversion Date, shall require that such Revolving Lender assign the same percentage of both its Revolving Commitment and its Revolving Advances; and

(vi) the Borrower has consented thereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if (A) the assignee is a Permitted Assignee with respect to such assignor, (B) the assignee is Natixis, an Affiliate of Natixis, or any commercial paper program or vehicle established or administered by Natixis or an Affiliate of Natixis or for which Natixis or an Affiliate of Natixis provides liquidity support that in each case satisfies the Rating Criteria, or (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Facility Agent and the Borrower an Assignment and Acceptance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.06, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including rights to payment of principal and interest) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or security interest granted to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Facility Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto. Any purported assignment to an assignee that does not comply with the requirements of this Section 12.06 will be null and void ab initio.

151

(b) The Borrower may not assign any of its rights hereunder or any interest herein or delegate any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agents and the Lenders which can be withheld for any reason in their sole and absolute discretion.

(c) Any Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that (A) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) each Participant shall have agreed to be bound by this Section 12.06, Section 12.09 and Section 12.03. In the event that any Lender sells participations in any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder:

(i) the agreement pursuant to which such Lender sells such participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver that requires the consent of all of the Lenders. Sections 2.09, 2.10 and 12.03 shall apply to each Participant as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to any amount under Section 2.09, 2.10 or 12.03 which is greater than the amount the related Lender would have been entitled to under any such Sections or provisions if the applicable participation had not occurred; and

(ii) such Lender, as nonfiduciary agent for the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Advances held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Advance which is the subject of the participation (the "Participant Register"). An Advance may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each Term Note and Revolving Note, if any, shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Advance may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Collateral Manager at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

152

(d) (1) The Facility Agent, on behalf of and acting solely for this purpose as the nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address specified in Section 12.02 or such other address as the Facility Agent shall designate in writing to the Lenders, a copy of this Agreement and each signature page hereto and each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the "Register") for the recordation of (i) the names and addresses of the Lenders (ii) the amount of each Advance made hereunder by and any Commitments of each Lender to the Borrower, (iii) the amount of any principal due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iv) the amount of any principal sum paid by the Borrower hereunder and each Lender's share thereof and (v) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the outstanding Advances maintained by each Lender under this Agreement (and any stated interest thereon) after giving effect to any assignment hereunder. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The entries maintained in the accounts and Register maintained pursuant Section 2.03(a) and Section 12.06(d) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Advances therein provided; provided that the failure of the Facility Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Collateral Manager or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. An Advance (and a Note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each Note, if any, shall expressly so provide). The Facility Agent shall update and furnish to the Collateral Agent, the Borrower and the Collateral Manager from time to time at the request of the Collateral Agent, the Borrower or the Collateral Manager an updated version of Schedule 1 reflecting the then-current allocation of the Commitments.

(2) The Borrower, shall maintain at its address specified in Section 12.02 or such other address as the Borrower shall designate in writing to the Subordinated Noteholders, a copy of this Agreement and each Transferee Representation Letter delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the "Borrower Register") for the recordation of (i) the names and addresses of the Subordinated Noteholders, (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Notes, the amount of any principal and Deferred Interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Subordinated Noteholder hereunder and (iii) the amount of any principal and Deferred Interest paid by the Borrower to each Subordinated Noteholder hereunder. The entries in the Borrower Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The entries maintained in the accounts and Register maintained pursuant Section 2.20 and Section 12.06(d) shall be prima facie evidence of the the Subordinated Note principal amount and the Deferred Interest therein recorded; provided that the failure of the Borrower to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Subordinated Note principal amount and the Deferred Interest in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Collateral Manager or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. A Note, if any, evidencing a Subordinated Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Borrower Register (and each Note, if any, shall expressly so provide).

153

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Facility Document, each Lender hereunder, and each Participant, must at all times be (A) either an "accredited investor" as defined in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3), or (7) of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any entity in which all of the equity owners are entities described within such paragraphs) or to a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and (B) a "qualified purchaser" as defined in the Investment Company Act (a "Permitted Purchaser"). Accordingly:

(i) each Lender represents to the Borrower, (A) on the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement (whether by being a signatory hereto or by entering into an Assignment and Acceptance) and (B) on each date on which it makes an Advance hereunder, that it is a Permitted Purchaser;

(ii) each Lender agrees that it shall not assign, or grant any participations in, any of its Advances or its Commitment to any Person unless such Person is a Permitted Purchaser; and

(iii) the Borrower agrees that, to the extent it has the right to consent to any assignment or participation herein, it shall not consent to such assignment or participation hereunder unless it reasonably believes that the assignee or participant is a "qualified purchaser" as defined in the Investment Company Act and that such assignment or participation will not cause the Borrower or the pool of Collateral to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

(f) A Subordinated Note may be transferred or otherwise assigned; provided that:

(i) such transfer or assignment is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the Securities Act and such laws, and is made only to (A) either an "accredited investor" as defined in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3), or (7) of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any entity in which all of the equity owners are entities described within such paragraphs) or to a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and (B) a "qualified purchaser" for purposes of the Investment Company Act; and

(ii) the transferee agrees with the representations set forth in the Transferee Representation Letter and executes and delivers a Transferee Representation Letter to the Borrower.

Any purported transfer to an transferee that does not comply with the requirements of this Section 12.06 will be null and void ab initio.

The Collateral Agent or the Custodian, as applicable, shall hold (i) all Collateral Obligations, Eligible Investments, Cash and other investments purchased in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) any other property of the Borrower otherwise Delivered to the Collateral Agent or the Custodian, as applicable, by or on behalf of the Borrower, in the relevant Covered Account established and maintained pursuant to Article VIII; as to which in each case the Borrower and the Collateral Agent shall have entered into an agreement with the Custodian substantially in the form of Exhibit E providing, inter alia, that the establishment and maintenance of such Covered Account will be governed by a law of a jurisdiction satisfactory to the Borrower and the Facility Agent.

158

(b) The Collateral Agent or the Custodian, as applicable, shall perform on behalf of the Facility Agent and the Lenders the following duties and obligations:

(i) The Custodian hereunder, shall take and retain custody of the Related Documents delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Article III hereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as custodian for the benefit of the Borrower subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder. In connection with each delivery of Related Documents hereunder to the Custodian, the Collateral Manager shall provide to the Custodian an electronic file (in EXCEL or a comparable format) that contains the related Collateral Obligation Checklist or that otherwise contains the Collateral Obligation identification number, the original principal balance of such Collateral Obligation and the name of the Obligor with respect to each related Collateral Obligation.

(ii) In taking and retaining custody of the Related Documents, the Custodian shall be deemed to be acting as the agent of the Borrower, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, and as agent for the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as necessary to perfect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Related Documents, and the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be acting as the agent of the Facility Agent and the Secured Parties; provided that the Collateral Agent makes no representations as to the existence, perfection or priority of any Lien on the Related Documents or the instruments therein; and provided further that the Collateral Agent's and Custodian's duties as agent hereunder shall be limited to those expressly contemplated herein.

(iii) [Reserved].

(iv) [Reserved].

(v) Prior to acquiring a Collateral Obligation, the Borrower or the Collateral Manager will provide the Collateral Agent and Custodian with a Trade Ticket, together with the Notice of Borrowing to be used in connection therewith.

(vi) [Reserved].

(vii) Promptly after receipt thereof, the Collateral Agent or the Custodian, as applicable, shall provide to the Collateral Manager a copy of all written notices and written communications identified as being sent to it in connection with the Collateral held hereunder which it receives from the related Obligor or any other Person. In no instance shall the Collateral Agent be under any duty or obligation to take any action on behalf of the Collateral Manager (or Borrower) in respect of the exercise of any voting or consent rights, or similar actions, unless it timely receives specific written instructions from the Collateral Manager (prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default) or the Facility Agent (after the occurrence of an Event of Default) in which event the Collateral Agent shall vote, consent or take such other action in accordance with such instructions.

159

(viii) In performing its duties, the Collateral Agent and Custodian, as applicable, shall use the same degree of care and attention as it employs with respect to similar collateral that it holds as Collateral Agent or as Custodian, as applicable, for others.

(c) Each time that the Collateral Manager directs or causes the acquisition of any Collateral Obligation, Eligible Investment, or other investment, the Borrower shall, if the Collateral Obligation, Eligible Investment, or other investment is required to be, but has not already been, transferred to the relevant Covered Account, cause the Collateral Obligation, Eligible Investment, or other investment to be Delivered to the Custodian to be held in the Custodial Account (or, in the case of any such investment that is not a Collateral Obligation, in the Covered Account in which the funds used to purchase the investment are held in accordance with Article X) for the benefit of the Borrower subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with this Agreement. The security interest of the Collateral Agent in the funds or other property used in connection with the acquisition shall, immediately and without further action on the part of the Collateral Agent, be released. The security interest of the Collateral Agent shall nevertheless come into existence and continue in the Collateral Obligation, Eligible Investment, or other investment so acquired, including all interests of the Borrower in any contracts related to and proceeds of such Collateral Obligation, Eligible Investment, or other investment.

(d) The Custodian hereby agrees to accept the Collateral Delivered to it as set forth in Sections 12.20(a) and (c), to hold the Collateral in safekeeping in the applicable Account or Accounts and to invest, release and transfer the same only in accordance with the written instructions of the Collateral Manager (prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default) or the Collateral Agent (after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default) or as otherwise provided herein or in the Account Control Agreement; provided, however that in the event of any conflict, the provisions of the Account Control Agreement shall control. Interest, dividends and any other proceeds received by the Custodian with respect to the Collateral shall be distributed by the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

(e) The Custodian shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement and may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting on any written notice, request, waiver, consent or instrument believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Custodian shall have no duty to determine or inquire into the happening or occurrence of any event or contingency, and it is agreed that its duties hereunder are purely ministerial in nature. The Custodian may consult with and obtain advice from legal counsel as to any provision hereof or its duties hereunder. The Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized hereby or taken or omitted by it in accordance with the advice of its counsel, except, in each case, to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Custodian. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 12.20, the Custodian shall have all of the rights and protections afforded to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

160

(f) Should any controversy arise between the undersigned with respect to the Collateral held by the Custodian, the Custodian shall have the right to consult with counsel and/or follow the instructions of the Collateral Agent acting at the direction of the Facility Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.

(g) The Custodian may at any time resign hereunder by giving written notice of its resignation to the Borrower and the Facility Agent at least ninety days prior to the date specified for such resignation to take effect, and, upon the effective date of such resignation, the Collateral held by the Custodian shall be delivered by it to such successor Custodian as shall be appointed by the Borrower, with the prior written consent of the Facility Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon all the Custodian's obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate; provided that no such resignation shall be effective until a successor has accepted such appointment. The Custodian's sole responsibility thereafter shall be to keep safely all Collateral then held by it and to deliver the same to a Person designated by, the Collateral Agent acting at the direction of the Facility Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties or in accordance with the direction of a final order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(h) The Custodian shall have no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith and without willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties hereunder. The Custodian shall incur no liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, statement, notice, resolution, request, direction, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper reasonably believed by it to be genuine and reasonably believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. Neither the Custodian nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees shall be liable to any other party hereto, except by reason of acts or omission constituting bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the Custodian's duties hereunder. Anything in this Agreement notwithstanding, in no event shall the Custodian be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including lost profits), even if the Custodian has been advised of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(i) The Custodian shall have no liability for losses arising from (i) any cause beyond its control, including, but not limited to, the act, failure or neglect of any agent or correspondent selected with due care by the Custodian for the remittance of funds, (ii) any delay, error, omission or default of any mail, telegraph, cable or wireless agency or operator, or (iii) the acts or edicts of any government or governmental agency or other group or entity exercising governmental powers.

Section 12.21 Special Provisions Applicable to CP Conduits.

Each of the parties hereby covenants and agrees that:

(a) It shall not institute against, or encourage, cooperate with or join any other Person in instituting against, any CP Conduit any bankruptcy, examination, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding under bankruptcy or similar law until at least one year and one day after the latest maturing commercial paper notes or other rated indebtedness issued by (x) any limited purpose entity providing funding to any CP Conduit or (y) such CP Conduit, is paid in full; provided that nothing in this Section 12.21 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, (i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned one year and one day period, or if longer the applicable preference period then in effect plus one day, in (a) any case or proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by such CP Conduit or (b) any involuntary insolvency proceeding filed or commenced against such CP Conduit by a Person other than it, or (ii) from commencing against such CP Conduit or any properties of the CP Conduit any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under federal or state bankruptcy or similar laws.

(b) It waives any right to set-off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing thereby to or for the credit or the account of any CP Conduit against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such CP Conduit to such party under this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Facility Documents to the contrary, the Commitment of any CP Conduit and any other amounts payable by such CP Conduit under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents shall be without recourse to any officer, director, employee, stockholder, member, agent or manager of such CP Conduit and shall be solely the corporate obligations of such CP Conduit.

(d) Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Facility Documents to the contrary, no CP Conduit shall, or shall be obligated to, fund or pay any amount pursuant to its Commitment or any other obligation under this Agreement unless such CP Conduit has received funds which may be used to make such funding or other payment and which funds are not required to repay commercial paper notes or other short term funding backing its commercial paper notes issued by a conduit providing funding to such CP Conduit, or finance activities of, such CP Conduit when due, and after giving effect to such payment, either (i) such CP Conduit (or, if applicable, the limited purpose entity which finances the CP Conduit) could issue commercial paper to refinance all of such CP Conduit's outstanding commercial paper (assuming such outstanding commercial paper matured at such time) in accordance with the program documents governing its commercial paper program or (ii) all of the commercial paper of such CP Conduit (or, if applicable, the limited purpose entity which finances such CP Conduit) is paid in full. Any amount which such CP Conduit does not advance pursuant to the operation of this paragraph shall not constitute a claim (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against or obligation of such CP Conduit for any such insufficiency.

In the event neither a CP Conduit nor its Liquidity Provider is able to fund or pay a CP Conduit's Commitment required to be paid or funded in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the inability to fund continues for 3 Business Days after the expiration of a CP Conduit's obligation to fund an Advance on any Borrowing Date, the Borrower shall have the right to replace such CP Conduit with one or more other assignees meeting the requirements set forth in Section 12.06 hereof, provided that (i) all fees and expenses incurred by such replaced CP Conduit in connection with such assignment shall be paid by the Borrower and (ii) the assignee(s) shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Advances of such replaced CP Conduit and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the replaced CP Conduit in respect thereof an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Advances of the replaced CP Conduit and all related fees and expenses in connection with the Facility Documents.

162

(e) Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement, a CP Conduit may, from time to time, with prior or concurrent notice to the Borrower and the Facility Agent, in one transaction or a series of transactions, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) to a Conduit Assignee which meets the Rating Criteria. Upon and to the extent of such assignment by the CP Conduit to a Conduit Assignee (i) such Conduit Assignee shall become a CP Conduit, (ii) such Conduit Assignee (as Lender) shall be the owner of the assigned portion of the rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents (iii) such Conduit Assignee, any multi-seller commercial paper conduit that issues commercial paper, the proceeds of which are loaned to or are otherwise the CP Conduit's source of funding the CP Conduit's acquisition or maintenance of its funding obligations hereunder, if such Conduit Assignee does not itself issue commercial paper, and other related parties shall have the benefit of all the rights and protections provided to the CP Conduit and in the other Facility Documents (including any limitation on recourse against such Conduit Assignee or related parties, any agreement not to file or join in the filing of a petition to commence an insolvency proceeding against such Conduit Assignee, and the right to assign to another Conduit Assignee as provided in this paragraph), (iv) such Conduit Assignee shall assume all (or the assigned or assumed portion) of the CP Conduit's obligations, if any, hereunder or any other Facility Document, and the Conduit Lender shall be released from such obligations, in each case to the extent of such assignment, and the obligations of the CP Conduit and such Conduit Assignee shall be several and not joint, (v) all distributions in respect of the obligations hereunder assigned shall be made to the Facility Agent, on behalf of the CP Conduit and such Conduit Assignee on a pro rata basis according to their respective interests, and (vi) if requested by the Facility Agent with respect to the Conduit Assignee, the parties will execute and deliver such further agreements and documents and take such other actions as such Facility Agent may reasonably request to evidence and give effect to the foregoing.

(f) Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Facility Documents to the contrary, but subject in all respects to Section 12.09 hereof, each CP Conduit may disclose to its respective support providers, any Affiliates of any such party and Authorities having jurisdiction over such CP Conduit, such support provider, any Affiliate of such party and any rating agency that issues a rating on such CP Conduit's commercial paper notes, the identities of (and other material information regarding) the Borrower, any other obligor on, or in respect of, an Advance made by such CP Conduit, collateral for such an Advance, its monthly transaction surveillance reports, and any of the terms and provisions of the Facility Documents that it may deem necessary or advisable and such other information as may be requested by a rating agency.

(g) The provisions of Sections 12.21(a), (c) and (d) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

163

(h) No pledge and/or collateral assignment by any CP Conduit to a support provider under a support facility of an interest in the rights of such CP Conduit in any Advance made by such CP Conduit and the Obligations shall constitute an assignment and/or assumption of such CP Conduit's obligation under this Agreement, such obligations in all cases remaining with such CP Conduit. Moreover, any such pledge and/or collateral assignment of the rights of such CP Conduit shall be permitted hereunder without further action or consent and any such pledgee may foreclose on any such pledge and perfect an assignment of such interest and enforce such CP Conduit's right hereunder notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.

(i) Each CP Conduit may act hereunder by and through its Collateral Manager or its administrator.

(j) This Section 12.21 shall not be amended or waived without the written consent of each CP Conduit.

LIBOR

With respect to each Interest Accrual Period, LIBOR will be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period shall equal the offered rate, as determined by the Calculation Agent, for Dollar deposits in Europe of the Designated Maturity which appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or such other page as may replace such Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page for the purpose of displaying comparable rates) as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets Commodities News (or, in the event that Bloomberg Financial Markets Commodities News ceases to report LIBOR for Dollar deposits, by another recognized financial reporting service) (the "Screen Page") as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the applicable LIBOR Determination Date. "LIBOR Determination Date" means, with respect to any Interest Accrual Period, the second London Banking Day prior to the first day of such Interest Accrual Period.

(ii) If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not appear on the Screen Page, the Calculation Agent shall determine the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations of the Reference Banks to prime banks in the London interbank market for U.S. Dollar deposits in Europe of the Designated Maturity (except that in the case where such Interest Accrual Period shall commence on a day that is not a LIBOR Business Day, for a term of the Designated Maturity commencing on the next following LIBOR Business Day), by reference to requests for quotations as of approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date made by the Calculation Agent to the Reference Banks. If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, at least two of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR shall equal such arithmetic mean of such quotations. If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, fewer than two Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR shall be deemed to be the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that leading banks in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Borrower) are quoting on the relevant LIBOR Determination Date for Dollar deposits in Europe for the term of such Interest Accrual Period (except that in the case where such Interest Accrual Period shall commence on a day that is not a LIBOR Business Day, for a term of the Designated Maturity commencing on the next following LIBOR Business Day), to the principal London offices of leading banks in the London interbank market.

(iii) In respect of any Interest Accrual Period having a Designated Maturity other than three months, LIBOR shall be determined through the use of straight line interpolation by reference to two rates calculated in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) above, one of which shall be determined as if the maturity of the Dollar deposits referred to therein were the period of time for which rates are available next shorter than the Interest Accrual Period and the other of which shall be determined as if such maturity were the period of time for which rates are available next longer than the Interest Accrual Period; provided that, if an Interest Accrual Period is less than or equal to seven days, then LIBOR shall be determined by reference to a rate calculated in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) above as if the maturity of the Dollar deposits referred to therein were a period of time equal to seven days.

(iv) If the Calculation Agent is unable to determine a rate in accordance with at least one of the procedures described above, LIBOR with respect to such Interest Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the Base Rate for each day during such Interest Accrual Period.

For purposes of clauses (i), (iii) and (iv) above, all percentages resulting from such calculations shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point. For the purposes of clause (ii) above, all percentages resulting from such calculations shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one thirty second of a percentage point.

As used herein:

"Designated Maturity" means, in respect of any Interest Accrual Period, the length of such Interest Accrual Period.

"LIBOR Business Day" means a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments in Dollars in New York and London.

"Reference Banks" means four major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent.

SCHEDULE 7

DBRS Rating Procedure

The "DBRS Rating" for an Obligor, Lender or other Person (collectively referred to as the "Obligor" for purposes of this Schedule) means the DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor determined in accordance with Part A of this Schedule or the DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor determined in accordance with Part B of this Schedule, in each case as the context requires. The DBRS Rating of the Obligors shall be updated at least annually.

Part A: Long Term Ratings

The "DBRS Long Term Rating" for an Obligor will, on any date, be the rating of such Obligor determined as provided below:

(1)

if there is a DBRS public long term rating of such Obligor at such date, such DBRS public long term rating;

(2)

if a DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clause (1) above, but a Xxxxx'x Rating, S&P Rating and Fitch Rating (each, a "public long term rating") are all available at such date, the DBRS Long Term Rating will be the DBRS Equivalent of such public long term rating remaining after disregarding the highest and lowest such public long term ratings from such Rating Agencies. For this purpose, if more than one public long term rating has the same highest DBRS Equivalent or the same lowest DBRS Equivalent, then in each case one of such public long term ratings shall be so disregarded;

(3)

if a DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (2) above, but public long term ratings of such Obligor by any two of Xxxxx'x, Fitch and S&P are available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of the lower such public long term rating;

(4)

if a DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (3) above, but a public long term rating of such Obligor by only one of Xxxxx'x, Fitch or S&P is available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of such available public long term rating; and

(5)

if at any time a DBRS Long Term Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (4) above, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have a DBRS Long Term Rating at such time and the Borrower shall be required to comply with Section 5.04 in respect of such Obligor.

Part B: Short Term Ratings

The "DBRS Short Term Rating" for a Lender or other Person (collectively referred to as the "Obligor" for purposes of this definition) will, on any date, be the rating of such Obligor determined as provided below:

(1)

if there is a DBRS public short term rating of such Obligor at such date, such DBRS public short term rating;

(2)

if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clause (1) above, but public short term ratings of such Obligor by each of Xxxxx'x, Fitch and S&P are all available at such date, the DBRS Short Term Rating will be the DBRS Equivalent of the public short term rating remaining after disregarding the highest and lowest public short term ratings from such Rating Agencies. For this purpose, if more than one public short term rating has the same highest DBRS Equivalent or the same lowest DBRS Equivalent, then in each case one of such public short term ratings shall be so disregarded;

(3)

if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (2) above, but public short term ratings of such Obligor by any two of Xxxxx'x, Fitch and S&P are available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of the lower such short term rating;

(4)

if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (3) above, but a public short term rating of such Obligor by only one of Xxxxx'x, Fitch or S&P is available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of such available short term rating; and

(5)

if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (4) above, then for purposes of this Agreement there shall be no DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor as at such date.

Part C: Other Definitions

The "DBRS Equivalent" of any rating by Xxxxx'x, Fitch or S&P will be the rating set forth below under the heading "DBRS Rating" opposite the applicable rating by Xxxxx'x, Fitch or S&P:

Long Term Rating Equivalents

"Fitch Rating" means, for any Obligor at any time, the rating determined as follows:

(i)

if there is a publicly available issuer rating or senior unsecured rating by Fitch, such issuer rating, if no issuer rating is available then the senior unsecured rating; and

(ii)

if the rating is not available as defined in the first clause above, but there is a rating by Fitch on another obligation of the same Obligor, then the rating will be as follows:

(a)

if such rating is on a senior secured obligation, one subcategory below such rating; and

(b)

if such rating in on a subordinate obligation, one subcategory above such rating.

If a Fitch Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clause (i) or (ii) above at any time, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have a Fitch Rating at such time.

"Xxxxx'x Rating" means, with respect to any Obligor as of any date of determination, the rating determined in accordance with the following methodology:

(i)

with respect to an Obligor on a Collateral Obligation that is an Eligible Senior Secured Loan (or an Obligor that is a Lender or other Person), if such Obligor has a corporate family rating by Xxxxx'x, then such corporate family rating;

(ii)

with respect to an Obligor on a Collateral Obligation that is an Eligible Senior Secured Loan, if not determined pursuant to clause (i) above, if such Collateral Obligation is publicly rated by Xxxxx'x, such public rating; and

(iii)

with respect to an Obligor on a Collateral Obligation, if not determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, (A) if such Obligor has one or more senior unsecured obligations publicly rated by Xxxxx'x, then the Xxxxx'x public rating on any such obligation (or, if such Obligor is an Obligor on a Collateral Obligation that is an Eligible Senior Secured Loan, the Xxxxx'x rating that is one subcategory higher than the Xxxxx'x public rating on any such senior unsecured obligation) as selected by the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion or, if no such rating is available, (B) if such Collateral Obligation is publicly rated by Xxxxx'x, such public rating or, if no such rating is available, (C) if such Collateral Obligation is a DIP Loan, with respect to any DIP Loan, one subcategory below the facility rating (whether public or private) of such DIP Loan rated by Xxxxx'x,

provided that, for purposes of calculating a Xxxxx'x Rating, each applicable rating on credit watch by Xxxxx'x with positive or negative implication at the time of calculation will be treated as having been upgraded or downgraded by one rating subcategory, as the case may be, and each applicable rating with negative outlook by Xxxxx'x at the time of calculation will be treated as having been downgraded by one rating subcategory. If a Xxxxx'x Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above at any time, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have a Xxxxx'x Rating at such time.

"S&P Rating" means, with respect to any Obligor, as of any date of determination, the rating determined in accordance with the following methodology:

(iv)

(a) if there is an issuer credit rating of such Obligor by S&P as published by S&P, or the guarantor which unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees such Collateral Obligation pursuant to a form of guaranty approved by S&P, then the S&P Rating shall be such rating (regardless of whether there is a published rating by S&P on the Collateral Obligations of such Obligor held by the Borrower) or (b) if there is no issuer credit rating of the Obligor by S&P but (1) there is a senior secured rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, then the S&P Rating of such Obligor shall be one sub-category below such rating; (2) if clause (1) above does not apply, but there is a senior unsecured rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, the S&P Rating of such Obligor shall equal such rating; and (3) if neither clause (1) nor clause (2) above applies, but there is a subordinated rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, then the S&P Rating of such Collateral Obligation shall be one sub-category above such rating if such rating is higher than "BB+", and shall be two sub-categories above such rating if such rating is "BB+" or lower; and

(v)

with respect to any Collateral Obligation that is a DIP Loan, the S&P Rating thereof shall be the credit rating assigned to such issue by S&P; provided that, for purposes of the determination of the S&P Rating, (x) if the applicable rating assigned by S&P to an Obligor or its obligations is on "credit watch positive" by S&P, such rating will be treated as being one sub-category above such assigned rating and (y) if the applicable rating assigned by S&P to an Obligor or its obligations is on "credit watch negative" by S&P, such rating will be treated as being one sub-category below such assigned rating. If a S&P Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clause (i) or (ii) above at any time, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have an S&P Rating at such time.

(c) If it is a partnership, grantor trust or S corporation, less than 40% of the value of any person’s interest in the Transferee must be attributable to the Subordinated Notes, or the Borrower must receive an opinion of nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel that such transfer will not cause the Borrower to be unable to rely on the “private placement” safe harbor of Treasury regulations section 1.7704-1(h).

(d) Any Transfer that would cause the Issuer to be unable to rely on the “private placement” safe harbor of Treasury regulations section 1.7704 1(h) will be void and of no force or effect.

6.
