Section 2. Amendments. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in Section 4 below, but effective as of the date hereof, the Credit Agreement shall be amended as follows:

(a) Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the definition of “Reinvestment Period” and replacing it with the following:

“Reinvestment Period” means the period from and including the Closing Date to and including the earliest of (a) the date that is 24 months after the Closing Date, (b) the date of the acceleration of the maturity of the Loans or the termination of the Commitments in full pursuant to Section 6.2, (c) any date on which the Borrower or the Collateral Manager reasonably determines that it can no longer acquire, purchase or originate additional Collateral Loans appropriate for inclusion in the Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Collateral Management Agreement (provided that, in the case of this clause (c), an Authorized Officer of the Collateral Manager shall provide a written certification as to such determination to the Agents, the Lenders and DBRS at least five Business Days prior to such date), (d) any date on which the Majority Lenders provide written notice to the Borrower that an event constituting “Cause” as defined in the Collateral Management Agreement has occurred and (e) [Reserved].

(c) References in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement” (and indirect references such as “hereunder”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereof”) shall be deemed to be references to the “Credit Agreement” as amended hereby. References in the Retention Letter to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as amended to date, including by this Agreement, and the Retention Letter is intended to remain in full force and effect. By its acknowledgment hereto, the Retention Provider agrees to the preceding sentence.

Section 3. Representations and Warranties.

(a) Before and after giving effect to the amendment contemplated pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower represents and warrants that (i) its representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement, and in each of the other Loan Documents, that contain materiality or material adverse effect qualifiers, are true and complete, and all other of its representations and warranties set forth in said Article IV, and in each of the other Loan Documents, are true and complete in all material respects, in each case on the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date), and as if each reference in said Article IV to “this Agreement” included reference to this Agreement (it being agreed that it shall be deemed to be an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement if any of the foregoing representations and warranties shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made) and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the part of the Borrower. Immediately before and after giving effect to this Agreement, the Borrower certifies that (1) each of the Loan Documents remains in full force and effect and is the binding and enforceable obligation of the Borrower, in each case, to the extent the Borrower is a party thereto (except for those provisions of any Loan Document not material, individually or in the aggregate with other affected provisions, to the interests of any of the Lenders) and (2) the Eligibility Criteria are satisfied.

(b) The Borrower represents and warrants that this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, or general principles of equity, whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

Each party, by its execution of this Agreement, hereby confirms that the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, and such Obligations shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of the Grant set forth in the Credit Agreement.
