Borrower Provisions

Payment of Expenses

Further Assurances

Subordination of Claims and Rights

All payments and advances made, directly or indirectly, by any Borrower Party to another Borrower Party or a Limited Partner, on any debts or liabilities now existing or hereafter arising, and all Liens securing such payments, shall be subordinate to the Obligations, and all Liens securing payment thereof;

provided, such payments may be made so long as:

other than as set forth in Section 6.1(d)(i) (Limitation on Distributions), no Account Control Event exists or would result therefrom; and

no Borrower Party would become Insolvent as a result thereof; and

management fees for regular, ordinary course asset management activities, excluding performance fees, incentive fees, and fees representing a carried interest, may be paid from investment proceeds at any time.

During an Event of Default, the Borrower Parties shall not take any action against any Limited Partner, including the exercise or enforcement of any right under the Fund Documents.

Indemnification

the use or misuse of Loan proceeds;

the execution or enforcement of any Loan Document, or any transaction contemplated thereby, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto;

any gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, or breach by any Borrower Party or its Affiliates of any Loan Document or environmental Laws (notwithstanding the acts or omissions of any Indemnitee);

Each Borrower Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any Claim against any Indemnitee for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or related to any Loan Document.

The Indemnitees shall not be liable for any Claim arising out of or related to the use by unintended recipients of any information distributed by electronic telecommunications, the internet or other information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents.

Recourse Liability

Neither the Limited Partners nor General Partner shall have any liability for the payment or performance of the Obligations, except that losses arising from a Borrower Party’s intentional misconduct, fraud, or willful misapplication of Loan proceeds shall be fully recourse to the General Partner.

The payment of the Obligations shall be non-recourse to the Limited Partners.

ERISA Compliance

No Primary Obligor nor, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, any member of an ERISA Controlled Group shall establish, maintain or contribute to or become obligated to make any contribution to, or incur any liability with respect to, any ERISA Plan, and no Primary Obligor shall have any employees.

No Primary Obligor shall allow its assets to constitute ERISA Plan Assets.

Assuming no portion of the Loan is funded with ERISA Plan Assets, unless the Lender is relying upon an available prohibited transaction exemption, the conditions of which are satisfied, no Borrower Party shall take any action, or omit to take any action, which would give rise to a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Internal Revenue Code or Section 406(a) of ERISA that would subject the Lender to any tax, penalty, damages or other claim under the Internal Revenue Code or ERISA.

ERISA Plan Assets

If any Primary Obligor:

provided a certificate of a Fund Responsible Officer pursuant to clause (g)(ii) on Annex VI,

or if it intends to admit one or more ERISA Limited Partners which would result in 25% or more of the total value of any class of equity interests in such Primary Obligor being held by “benefit plan investors” under Section 3(42) of ERISA,

If any Primary Obligor provided an ERISA Operating Company Opinion pursuant to clause (g)(i) on Annex VI or Section 9.2(h)(i), such Primary Obligor shall provide to the Lender, by the 60th day after the end of each ERISA Annual Valuation Period of such Primary Obligor, a certificate, addressed to the Lender, signed by a Fund Responsible Officer, certifying that such Primary Obligor has met the requirements to be an ERISA Operating Company for the twelve-month period following the end of such ERISA Annual Valuation Period.

If such Primary Obligor does not have “significant” participation by ERISA Limited Partners (calculated in accordance with the ERISA Plan Asset Regulations), such Primary Obligor shall deliver to the Lender, concurrently with annual financial statements, a certificate confirming that the underlying assets of such Primary Obligor do not constitute ERISA Plan Assets because less than 25% of the total value of each class of equity interests in such Primary Obligor is held by “benefit plan investors” under Section 3(42) of ERISA.

Confidentiality

The Lender shall maintain the confidentiality of all information (including financial statements, Capital Commitments, Fund Documents, investments under the LPA, identities of the Limited Partners, and any other data, records, reports and forecasts) disclosed by or on behalf of a Borrower Party or Limited Partner to the Lender or its attorneys, accountants, agents or service providers in connection with this Credit Agreement, in accordance with the Lender’s customary procedures, but not any information that was publicly available prior to such disclosure (“Confidential Information”).

to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and any other Federal Reserve Bank; and

in connection with the exercise of any remedy or Proceeding related to the Loan Documents.

Lending Office

and may change the Lending Office by written notice to the Borrower.

If requested by the Borrower, the Lender may designate a different Lending Office, if such designation would reduce the amount of compensation owed by the Borrowers under Section 10, and would not, in the Lender’s good faith judgment, subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense or be otherwise disadvantageous to it. The Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with such change.

Governing Law

Waiver of Trial by Jury

Severability of Invalid Provisions

Entire Agreement

Multiple Counterparts; Electronic Delivery

INCREASED COSTS, LIBOR UNAVAILABILITY AND TAXES

Compensation Certificate

LIBOR Unavailability, Inadequacy or Illegality

If the Lender determines that no interest rate reporting service of recognized standing has reported LIBOR, then the Lender may obtain LIBOR from any bank reasonably selected by the Lender.

If the Lender determines that,

deposits in U.S. dollars or another Approved Currency are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market,

reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR,

LIBOR does not adequately reflect the Lender’s cost of funding,

or a Change in Law has made it unlawful for the Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Loans,

Change in Law

If the Lender reasonably determines that as a result of any Change in Law, there is any

increase in the cost to the Lender of Utilizations,

decrease in the amount received or receivable by the Lender in connection therewith (excluding Taxes and reserve requirements related to the determination of LIBOR),

increase in or imposition of Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes or Connection Income Taxes) on the Utilizations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto,

or decrease in its (or an Affiliate’s) return on capital, as a consequence of the Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies on capital adequacy and expected return on capital),

The Lender shall notify the Borrowers promptly upon becoming aware of any event occurring after the Closing Date, and in any event within 270 days thereafter, which may entitle the Lender to compensation hereunder; provided that if the event giving rise to such compensation is retroactive, then such 270-day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.

Taxes

Payments Free of Taxes

All payments by any Borrower to the Lender hereunder shall be made free and clear, and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by Law.

If any Borrower is required by Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes related to any sum payable to the Lender, it may in good faith do so, and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Law; and if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased so that after making such deduction or withholding, the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum the Lender would have received had no deductions or withholdings been made.

Indemnified Taxes

Each Borrower Party agrees to indemnify the Lender for (without duplication),

the full amount of Indemnified Taxes payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender,

and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or related thereto, including penalties, interest, and legal expenses incurred in the enforcement hereof, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority.

Lender’s Tax Exemption Form

The Lender (and any assignee of the Lender) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers, on or before the Closing Date and the date of each assignment, and thereafter upon reasonable request of a Borrower, executed copies of IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8, as applicable, as will permit the applicable Borrower to determine whether or not payments under the Loan Document are subject to U.S. withholding tax or U.S. information reporting requirements.

Tax Refunds

If the Lender receives a refund, which it determines in good faith is directly attributable to Indemnified Taxes, it shall promptly pay such amount, net of all related out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) to the Borrowers (without interest thereon),

but if the Lender is subsequently required to repay such amount to the relevant taxing authority, the Borrowers agree to refund such amount to the Lender.

The Lender shall not pay to the Borrowers any amount that would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender would have been in if Indemnified Taxes had not been imposed and indemnification payments had never been paid.
