NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Fund and the Adviser hereby agree as follows:
| 1. | In General. |
The Adviser agrees, all as more fully set forth herein, to act as investment adviser to the Fund with respect to the investment of the Fund’s assets and to supervise and arrange for the day-to-day operations of the Fund and the purchase, management and sale of assets comprising the investment portfolio of the Fund.

(a) Subject to the succeeding provisions of this paragraph, including, without limitation, paragraph (d) of this Section 2, and subject to the direction and control of the Fund’s board of directors (the “Board” and each member, a “Director”), the Adviser shall act as the investment adviser to the Fund and shall manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Adviser shall, during the term and subject to the provisions of this Agreement,
| (i) | determine the composition of the portfolio of the Fund, the nature and timing of the changes therein and the manner of implementing such changes; |
| (ii) | identify, evaluate and negotiate the structure of the investments made by the Fund; |
| (iii) | execute, close, service and monitor the investments that the Fund makes; |
| (iv) | determine the securities and other assets that the Fund will purchase, retain or sell; |
| (v) | perform due diligence on prospective portfolio companies; |
| (vi) | provide the Fund with such other investment advisory, research and related services as the Fund may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of its funds, and |
| (vii) | subject to the Fund’s policies and procedures, manage the capital structure of the Fund, including, but not limited to, asset and liability management and liquidity maintenance. |
(b) Subject to the supervision of the Board, the Adviser shall have the power and authority on behalf of the Fund to effectuate its investment decisions for the Fund, including the execution and delivery of all documents relating to the Fund’s investments and the placing of orders for other purchase or sale transactions on behalf of the Fund. In the event that the Fund determines to acquire debt financing or to refinance existing debt financing, the Adviser shall arrange for such financing on the Fund’s behalf, subject to the oversight and approval of the Board. If it is necessary for the Adviser to make investments on behalf of the Fund through one or more subsidiaries or special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”), the Adviser shall have authority to create or arrange for the creation of such subsidiaries or SPVs and to make such investments through such subsidiaries or SPVs (in accordance with the 1940 Act). Nothing contained herein shall be construed to restrict the Fund’s right to hire its own employees or to contract for administrative services to be performed by third parties, including, but not limited to, the calculation of the net asset value of the shares of the Fund (“Shares”).
(c) In the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Adviser shall at all times use all reasonable efforts to conform to and act in accordance with any requirements imposed by (i) the provisions of the 1940 Act, and of any rules or regulations in force thereunder, subject to the terms of any exemptive order applicable to the Fund; (ii) any other applicable provision of law; (iii) the provisions of the Fund’s Articles of Incorporation and the Fund’s Bylaws, as such documents may be amended from time to time; (iv) the investment objective, policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund as set forth in the reports and/or registration statements or prospectuses (“Prospectus”) that the Fund files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as they may be amended from time to time by the Board; and (v) any policies and determinations of the Board that are provided in writing to the Adviser.

(d) The Adviser may engage one or more investment advisers (each, a “Sub-Adviser”) that are registered under the Advisers Act to provide the Fund with any of the services required to be performed by the Adviser under this Agreement, all as shall be set forth in a written contract (each, a “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) to which the Adviser and Sub-Adviser shall be parties. Any such Sub-Advisory Agreement shall be subject to approval by the vote of a majority of the members of the Board who are not “interested persons” (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Adviser, any Sub-Adviser, or of the Fund (each, an “Independent Director”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval and, to the extent required by the 1940 Act, by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund and otherwise consistent with the terms of the 1940 Act. The Adviser and not the Fund shall be responsible for any compensation payable to any Sub-Adviser; provided, however, that the Adviser shall have the right to direct the Fund to pay directly to any Sub-Adviser the amounts due and payable to such Sub-Adviser from the fees and expenses payable to the Adviser under this Agreement.
(e) The Adviser shall maintain all books and records with respect to the Fund’s securities transactions required by sub-paragraphs (b)(5), (6), (9) and (10) and paragraph (f) of Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act (other than those records being maintained by the administrator to the Fund under the administration agreement, or by the Fund’s custodian or transfer agent and preserve such records for the periods prescribed therefor by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act. The Adviser shall have the right to retain copies, or originals of such records to the extent required by applicable law, subject to observance of its confidentiality obligations under this Agreement.
(f) The Adviser shall have discretionary authority to exercise voting rights with respect to the investments that it manages (the “Adviser Assets”). The Adviser, including, without limitation, its designee, shall have the power to vote, either in person or by proxy, all securities and other investments in which the Adviser Assets may be invested from time to time and shall not be required to seek or take instructions from the Fund or take any action with respect thereto. Such authorization shall include the ability to exercise authority with regard to corporate actions affecting investments in the Adviser Assets.
The Adviser shall establish and maintain a written procedure for proxy voting in compliance with current applicable rules and regulations, including but not limited to Rule 30b1-4 under the 1940 Act. The Adviser shall provide the Fund or its designee a copy of such procedures and establish a process for the timely distribution of the Adviser’s voting record with respect to the Fund’s securities and other information necessary for the Fund to complete any filings required by the SEC under the 1940 Act, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002, as amended.
(g) The Adviser is hereby authorized, on behalf of the Fund and at the direction of the Board pursuant to delegated authority, to possess, transfer, mortgage, pledge or otherwise deal in and exercise all rights, powers, privileges and other incidents of ownership or possession with respect to the Fund’s investments and other property and funds held or owned by the Fund, including voting and providing consents and waivers with respect to the Fund’s investments and exercising and enforcing rights with respect to any claims relating to the Fund’s investments and other property and funds, including with respect to litigation, bankruptcy or other reorganization.

| 4. | Services Not Exclusive. |
Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Adviser or any officer, employee or other affiliate thereof from acting as investment adviser for any other person, firm or corporation, whether or not the investment objectives or policies of any such other person, firm, or corporation are similar to those of the Fund, or from engaging in any other lawful activity, and shall not in any way limit or restrict the Adviser or any of its officers, employees or agents from buying, selling or trading any securities for its or their own accounts or for the accounts of others for whom it or they may be acting.
| 5. | Confidentiality. |
The parties hereto agree that each shall treat confidentially all information provided by each party to the other regarding its business and operations. All confidential information provided by a party hereto, including all “nonpublic personal information,” as defined under the ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 1999 (Public law 106-102, 113 Stat. 1338), shall be used by the other party hereto solely for the purpose of rendering services pursuant to this Agreement and, except as may be required in carrying out this Agreement, shall not be disclosed to any third party, without the prior consent of such providing party, except that such confidential information may be disclosed to an affiliate or agent of the disclosing party to be used for the sole purpose of providing the services set forth herein. The foregoing shall not be applicable to any information that is publicly available when provided or thereafter becomes publicly available other than through a breach of this Agreement, or that is requested by or required to be disclosed to any governmental or regulatory authority, including in connection with any required regulatory filings or examinations, by judicial or administrative process or otherwise by applicable law or regulation.
| 6. | Best Execution; Research Services. |
It is acknowledged that the Adviser will not typically use a broker or dealer, but if a broker or dealer is required to effectuate a transaction on behalf of the Fund, the Adviser will engage one as described below. Subject to the other provisions of this paragraph, in placing orders with brokers and dealers, the Adviser will seek to obtain the best net results for the Fund, taking into account such factors as price (including the applicable brokerage commission or dealer spread), size of order, difficulty of execution and operational facilities of the firm and the firm’s risk and skill in positioning blocks of securities. It is acknowledged that although the Adviser will generally seek reasonably competitive trade execution costs, the Fund may not necessarily pay the lowest spread or commission available.
Consistent with this obligation, and subject to applicable legal requirements, the Adviser may select brokers partly upon brokerage or research services provided to it and the Fund and any other clients. In return for such services, the Fund may pay a higher commission than other brokers would charge, provided that the Adviser determines in good faith that such commission is reasonable in terms either of the transaction or the overall responsibility of the Adviser to the Fund and its other clients and that the total commissions paid by the Fund will be reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Fund over the long term, subject to review by the Board from time to time with respect to the extent and continuation of such practice to determine whether the Fund benefits, directly or indirectly, from such practice.
| 7. | Compensation of the Adviser. |
The Fund agrees to pay, and the Adviser agrees to accept, as compensation for the services provided by the Adviser hereunder, a management fee as hereinafter set forth. The Fund shall make any payments due hereunder to the Adviser or to the Adviser’s designee as the Adviser may otherwise direct.
(a) In consideration of the services provided by the Adviser under this Agreement, the Fund will pay the Adviser a management fee (the “Management Fee”) as indicated on Exhibit A.
7
(b) The Management Fee for the period from the effective date of this Agreement to the end of the quarter during which such effective date occurs will be prorated according to the proportion that such period bears to the full quarterly period. Upon any termination of this Agreement before the end of a quarter, the Management Fee for such part of that quarter will be prorated according to the proportion that such period bears to the full quarterly period and will be payable upon the date of termination of this Agreement.
(c) For the purpose of determining fees payable to the Adviser under this Section 7, the value of the Fund’s assets will be computed at the times and in the manner specified in the Prospectus, and on days on which the value of Fund assets are not so determined, the asset value computation to be used will be as determined on the immediately preceding day on which the value of Fund assets were determined. Furthermore, fees payable to the Adviser under this Section 7 will be earned and attributed to each class of the Shares (defined herein) based on the net asset value and net profits of the Fund attributable to each such class of Shares and in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable to the Fund.
| 8. | Representations and Warranties. |
(a) The Adviser represents and warrants that it is duly registered and authorized as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act, and the Adviser agrees to maintain effective all material requisite registrations, authorizations and licenses, as the case may be, until the termination of this Agreement.
(b) The Adviser shall provide full and prompt disclosure to the Fund regarding itself and its partners, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, affiliates or any person who controls any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, information regarding any change in control of the Adviser or any change in its personnel that could affect the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund hereunder, information regarding any material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Adviser or any person who controls the Adviser, information regarding the results of any examination conducted by the SEC or any other state or federal governmental agency or authority or any self-regulatory organization relating directly or indirectly to the services performed by the Adviser hereunder with respect to the Fund and, upon request, other information that the Board reasonably deems necessary or desirable to enable the Directors to monitor the performance of the Adviser and information that is required, in the reasonable judgment of the Directors and upon prior written request, to be disclosed in any filings required by any governmental agency or by any applicable law, regulation, rule or order.

| 9. | Indemnification. |
(a) The Adviser assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith and shall not be responsible for any action of the Board in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendations of the Adviser. The Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser) shall not be liable to the Fund for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Adviser in connection with the performance of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Fund (except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the 1940 Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty (as the same is finally determined by judicial proceedings) with respect to the receipt of compensation for services), and the Fund shall indemnify, defend and protect the Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser (including any Sub-Adviser)) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless from and against all damages, liabilities, costs, demands, charges, claims and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Fund or its security holders) arising out of any actions or omissions or otherwise based upon the performance of any of the Adviser’s duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Fund. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Section 9 to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall protect or be deemed to protect the Indemnified Parties against or entitle or be deemed to entitle the Indemnified Parties to indemnification in respect of, any liability to the Fund or its security holders to which the Indemnified Parties would otherwise be subject by reason of fraud, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of the Adviser’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Adviser’s duties and obligations under this Agreement (as the same shall be determined in accordance with the 1940 Act and any interpretations or guidance by the SEC or its staff thereunder).
| 10. | Duration and Termination. |
(a) This Agreement shall become effective as of the first date written above. This Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 60 days’ written notice (i) by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (ii) by the vote of the Board or (iii) by the Adviser. The provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the Adviser shall remain entitled to the benefits thereof, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement. Further, notwithstanding the termination or expiration of this Agreement as aforesaid, the Adviser shall be entitled to any amounts owed under Sections 3 or 7 through the date of termination or expiration, and Section 9 shall continue in force and effect and apply to the Adviser and its representatives as and to the extent applicable.
