Section 7. Management Fee.

(a) The Company will pay the Investment Manager, on a quarterly basis, a management fee (the “Management Fee”) in respect of each Member, in arrears, equal to the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) of such Member multiplied by the sum of (i) the Net Asset Value of the Units and (ii) the product of (a) all unfunded

- 9 -

commitment amounts under any Portfolio Investments with ongoing funding obligations (e.g., delayed-draw term loans) and (b) the Indebtedness Fraction (as defined below), each of (i) and (ii) as of the last day of each calendar quarter. For the avoidance of doubt, the Management Fee shall not be charged with respect to any portion of the Company’s assets that are attributable to direct leverage. The “Indebtedness Fraction” means an amount equal to one minus a fraction, the numerator of which is the total outstanding portfolio level indebtedness of the Company, and the denominator of which is the principal amount of any Portfolio Investments held by the Company. A Member’s “Applicable Percentage” shall be as set forth below:

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Member that makes a Capital Commitment on the Initial Closing Date (each, a “Founding Member”), the Management Fee shall be waived (and shall not be charged) with respect to such Founding Member (including any additional Capital Commitments made by such Founding Member) until the six month anniversary of the Initial Closing Date.

(c) Payment of the Management Fee shall be made within ten (10) days of the last day of each calendar quarter, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

(d) The Management Fee charged with respect to a Member shall be prorated for any Capital Contribution or repurchase of Units that is effective other than as of the first day of a calendar quarter.

(e) The Investment Manager may, in its discretion, reduce, waive or calculate differently the Management Fee charged at the Company level with regard to the Units held by certain Members, including, without limitation, a Related Investor, so long as such reduction, waiver or calculation does not result in a preferential dividend under Section 562(c) of the Code.

Section 8. Expenses of the Investment Manager. In consideration for the Management Fee, the Investment Manager shall pay, without reimbursement by the Company, all of its own ordinary administrative, operating and overhead expenses and, except as provided herein, the Investment Manager and its Affiliates shall be responsible for the expenses of providing their services to the Company, including overhead expenses (including general systems and technology, but excluding systems, data and technology developed or purchased for the predominant benefit of the Company’s investment program), office expenses and compensation of their respective employees.

- 10 -

Section 9. Expenses of the Company.

(a) The Company shall bear its own expenses in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.08 of the LLC Agreement. To the extent that expenses to be borne by the Company are paid by the Investment Manager, the Company shall reimburse the Investment Manager for such expenses.

(b) The Investment Manager shall be reimbursed by the Company for Organizational Expenses. Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Investment Manager may determine to limit Organizational Expenses and Company Expenses in the aggregate that are borne by the Company to the extent necessary to prevent Organizational Expenses and Company Expenses, on an annualized basis, from exceeding a percentage determined by the Investment Manager in its discretion. This limit shall be maintained until the third anniversary of the Initial Closing Date. Pursuant to such limit, any fees waived and expenses borne by the Investment Manager may be reimbursed by the Company during the three year period that such limit is in place, provided that no reimbursement payment shall be made that would cause the Company’s expenses to exceed the same limit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, extraordinary expenses (including, but not limited to, litigation expenses, indemnification expenses, lender liability expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s business), the Management Fee, the Incentive Fee, interest expenses, financing costs and expenses, reserves for and costs associated with determining current expected credit losses, loan servicing fees and expenses, and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition, disposition, ownership and operation of the Portfolio Investments shall not be included as Company Expenses for purposes of calculating the foregoing expense limit.

Section 10. Exculpation; Indemnification. The Company shall exculpate and indemnify each Protected Person in accordance with Sections 4.06 and 4.07 of the LLC Agreement.

Section 11. Activities of the Investment Manager and Others. The Investment Manager and its Affiliates may engage, simultaneously with their investment management activities on behalf of the Company, in other businesses, and may render services similar to those described in this Agreement for other Persons, and shall not by reason of such engaging in other businesses or rendering of services for others be deemed to be acting in conflict with the interests of the Company. AB Entities, in their respective individual capacities, may be Members, directors, employees, agents or officers of the Company but shall not be deemed thereby to have interests that are in conflict with the interests of the Company.

Section 12. Use of Name. The Company acknowledges that it adopted its name through the permission of the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager hereby consents to the non-exclusive use by the Company of its name (i.e., “AB Commercial Real Estate Private Debt Fund, LLC”) only for so long as the Investment Manager serves as the investment manager of the

- 11 -

Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investment Manager and its Affiliates from and against any and all Indemnified Losses, which may arise out of the Company’s use or misuse of the applicable name or out of any breach of or failure to comply with this Section 12.

Section 13. Limitations on Reference to Investment Manager. The Company shall not distribute or circulate any sales literature, promotional or other material which contains any reference to the Investment Manager without the prior approval of the Investment Manager and shall submit in draft form all such materials requiring approval of the Investment Manager, allowing sufficient time for review by the Investment Manager and its counsel prior to any deadline for printing. If the Investment Manager ceases to furnish services to the Company, the Company at its expense:

(a) as promptly as practicable, shall take all necessary action to cause the Company Documents to be amended to accomplish a change of name to eliminate any reference to the Investment Manager; and

(b) within 60 days after the date as of which the Investment Manager ceases to furnish services to the Company, shall cease to use in any other manner, including use in any sales literature or promotional material, the name of the Investment Manager.

Section 14. Term. This Agreement shall remain in effect until December 31, 2022, and shall automatically renew from year to year thereafter, except that it may be terminated by the Investment Manager or by the Company upon 60 days’ prior written notice by the terminating party to the other party.

Section 17. Forum. To the fullest extent permitted by law, in the event of any Proceeding arising out of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto irrevocably (i) consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, State of New York, New York County and of the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, (ii) waive any defense based on doctrines of venue or forum non conveniens, or similar rules or doctrines, and (iii) agree that all claims in respect of such a Proceeding must be heard and determined exclusively in the Supreme Court, State of New York, New York County or the US District Court for the Southern District of New York.
