outstanding Hedge Agreements (1) do not provide a commercially reasonable hedge against foreign currency-related exposures of the Borrower Entities or (2) have notional amounts that exceed the Collateral Obligation Notional Amounts of the respective Collateral Obligations then hedged thereby (each of clause (1) and clause (2), a Hedge Unwind Condition); and, if the Administrative Agent determines that a Hedge Unwind Condition exists, notifies the Borrower thereof and requests that the Borrower Entities effect Hedge Unwinds to lessen or cure such Hedge Unwind Condition, then the Borrower Entities shall effect such Hedge Unwinds promptly.
(e) The fourth paragraph in Section 6.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:
The Accounts Securities Intermediary may employ, as subcustodians for any Pledged Obligations (and Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds thereon) denominated in a non-USD Specified Currency, subcustodians and other securities depositories, clearing agencies and clearing systems (each, an Intermediary and, collectively, Intermediaries). The Accounts Securities Intermediary shall identify on its books as belonging to the applicable Borrower Entity (subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties) any of the Pledged Obligations of such Borrower Entity held by an Intermediary. The Accounts Securities Intermediary may hold any such Pledged Obligations (and related Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds) with one or more Intermediaries in each case in a single account with such Intermediary that is identified as belonging to the Accounts Securities Intermediary for the benefit of its customers; provided that the records of the Accounts Securities Intermediary with respect to any such Pledged Obligations and related Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds which are property of a Borrower Entity maintained in such account shall identify by book-entry those Pledged Obligations and proceeds thereof as belonging to such Borrower Entity. On the Closing Date, the Accounts Securities Intermediary is hereby directed to open sub-accounts of the Collateral Account, the Interest Collection Account and the Principal Collection Account in respect of AUD, EUR and GBP. Upon notice by the Borrower that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have agreed in writing to a non-USD Specified Currency other than AUD, EUR and GBP, the Collateral Agent and the Accounts Securities Intermediary shall open and are hereby directed to open any necessary accounts or sub-accounts in such currency and, if necessary or advisable, enter into amendments to the Securities Account Control Agreement to perfect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in such other non-USD accounts (or sub-accounts). Neither the Collateral Agent or the Accounts Securities Intermediary shall be required to open any Transaction Account (or receive any Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds) in any Non-USD Currencies other than AUD, EUR and GBP.
(f) Section 6.2(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:
(b) Principal Collection Account. The Borrower shall, prior to the Initial Credit Date, establish at the Accounts Securities Intermediary a segregated trust account in the name BCSF I, LLC, subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, which shall be designated as the Principal Collection Account, which shall be held by the Accounts Securities Intermediary in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Principal Collection Account shall be held in trust by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
The proceeds of all Loans made hereunder (unless expressly permitted to be otherwise applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement), all Principal Proceeds and amounts transferred from the Margin Account pursuant to Section 6.3(c) shall be deposited into the Principal Collection Account. All such funds, together with any Eligible Investments made with such funds, shall be held by the Accounts Securities Intermediary in the Principal Collection Account as part of the Collateral subject to disbursement and withdrawal solely as provided in this
3
Section 6.2(b) and Section 6.3(a) below. Any income or other gain realized from Eligible Investments in the Principal Collection Account shall be transferred to the Interest Collection Account and disbursed and withdrawn in accordance with Section 6.2.
So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, upon the receipt of a Borrower Order, the Accounts Securities Intermediary shall reinvest funds on deposit in the Principal Collection Account in Collateral Obligations as permitted under and in accordance with the requirements of Section 8 and such Borrower Order.
In addition, the Borrower may, so long as (i) each Collateral Portfolio Requirement would be satisfied on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such transfer, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or would result therefrom, (iii) there is no Borrowing Base Deficiency at such time and after giving effect thereto and (iv) the Administrative Agent has consented to (which the Administrative Agent may grant or withhold in its sole and absolute judgement), provide a Borrower Order to the Accounts Securities Intermediary to transfer U.S. Dollars on deposit in the Principal Collection Account to the Margin Account in accordance with such Borrower Order (it being understood that funds may not be converted from a non-U.S. Dollar Specified Currency to U.S. Dollars in connection with any such transfer to the Margin Account).
To the extent that any Principal Proceeds are received in AUD, EUR or GBP, the Collateral Agent will cause such Principal Proceeds to be deposited in the subaccount of the Principal Collection Account established for such currency (or in such other account as the Collateral Agent may have established to hold such currency for purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents); provided that, it is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the establishment of such subaccounts on or prior to the Initial Credit Date, such subaccounts shall not be available for the receipt of Principal Proceeds until such time as the Accounts Securities Intermediary notifies the Borrower and the Collateral Agent that such subaccounts are operational and available to receive such funds (and neither the Account Securities Intermediary nor the Collateral Agent shall have any liability for any failure or delay in the receipt of such funds). On the Determination Date preceding each Payment Date (or at any time at the direction of the Administrative Agent, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), the Collateral Agent shall cause, at the direction of the Investment Manager (or if no such direction is provided by the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Administrative Agent) all amounts in each Specified Currency in the Principal Collection Account and such subaccounts (and in each other such account) received during the related Due Period to be converted to USD, and shall cause the USD proceeds of such conversion to be deposited in the Principal Collection Account for application on such Payment Date pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, Principal Proceeds received during a Due Period and committed to be converted by the related Determination Date as described above shall continue to be treated as having been received in such Due Period, notwithstanding that the settlement of the currency exchange may occur after such Determination Date (provided that such settlement occurs no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date). Pursuant to a Borrower Order, the Investment Manager may from time to time direct the Collateral Agent to convert any such non-USD amounts into USD and for the proceeds of such conversion to be deposited in the Principal Collection Account for application pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and at any time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) convert any or all of such non-USD amounts into USD for application hereunder.
(g) The first sentence of Section 6.3(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirely as follows:
The Borrower shall, on or prior to the Initial Credit Date, establish at the Accounts Securities Intermediary a segregated trust account in the name BCSF I, LLC, subject to the lien of U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, which shall be designated as the Margin Account, which shall be held by the Accounts Securities
4
Intermediary in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement, into which the Borrower shall deposit cash in U.S. dollars from time to time as required pursuant to the Margining Agreement.

Quoted terms used in this definition have the meanings given to them in the GS/BCSF I ISDA Master Agreement.
As used herein:
