Exhibit 10.14

This Agreement and Plan Of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) is made as of May 5, 2017 by and between Griffin-Benefit Street Partners BDC Corp., a Maryland corporation (the “Acquired Fund”), and Griffin Institutional Access Credit Fund, a Delaware Statutory Trust (the “Acquiring Fund” and, together with the Acquired Fund, the “Funds”), each with its principal place of business at Griffin Capital Plaza, 1520 E. Grand Avenue, El Segundo, California 90245. Griffin Capital Credit Advisor, LLC joins this Agreement solely for the purposes of paragraphs 1.7 and 10.2.

This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of reorganization and liquidation within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The reorganization (the “Reorganization”) will consist of the transfer of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for voting shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Fund that have been designated as Class F shares (the “Acquiring Fund Shares”), the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, and the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the stockholders of the Acquired Fund in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund as provided herein, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.

The Acquired Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company and the Acquiring Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Acquired Fund owns securities that generally are assets of the character in which the Acquiring Fund is permitted to invest.

The Board of Trustees of the Acquiring Fund, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Acquiring Fund, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), has determined, with respect to the Acquiring Fund, that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund for the Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquiring Fund and its stockholders, and that the interests of the existing stockholders of the Acquiring Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction.

The Board of Directors of the Acquired Fund, including a majority of the Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Acquired Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act, has also determined, with respect to the Acquired Fund, that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund for the Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquired Fund and its stockholders and that the interests of the existing stockholders of the Acquired Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1.    TRANSACTION

1.1   Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees to transfer all of the Acquired Fund’s assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Acquiring Fund, and the Acquiring Fund agrees in exchange therefor: (i) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of full and fractional Acquiring Fund Shares, determined by dividing the value of the Acquired Fund’s net assets, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Share, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2; and (ii) to assume all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.3. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the “Closing Date”).

1.2    The assets of the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall consist of all assets and property, including, without limitation, all cash, securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or interests receivable, that are owned by the Acquired Fund, and any rights to register shares under applicable securities laws, or deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund, on the Closing Date (collectively, the “Assets”).

1.3    The Acquired Fund will use commercially reasonable efforts to discharge or accrue for all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the Closing Date consistent with its obligation to continue to pursue its investment objective and strategies in accordance with the terms of its prospectus. The Acquiring Fund shall also assume all of the liabilities and obligations of the Acquired Fund, whether accrued or contingent, known or unknown, existing at the Valuation Date, as defined in paragraph 2.1, which liabilities and obligations shall include any and all obligations of the Acquired Fund to indemnify a director of the Acquired Fund who is not an "interested person" as defined in Section 2(a)(l 9) of the 1940 Act (an "Independent Director"), acting in his capacity as such, to the fullest extent permitted by law and the Acquired Fund's charter and bylaws, as in effect as of the date of this Agreement. (collectively, “Liabilities”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Acquiring Fund agrees that all rights to indemnification and all limitations of liability existing in favor of the Acquired Fund's Independent Directors, acting in their capacities as such, under the Acquired Fund's charter and bylaws in effect as of the date of this Agreement shall survive the Reorganization as obligations of the Acquiring Fund and shall continue in full force and effect, without any amendments thereto, and shall constitute rights which may be asserted by an Independent Director against the Acquiring Fund, its successors or assigns.

1.4   Immediately after the transfer of Assets provided for in paragraph 1.1, the Acquired Fund will distribute to the Acquired Fund’s stockholders of record, determined as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Acquired Fund Stockholders”), on a pro rata basis, the Acquiring Fund Shares received by the Acquired Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1, and will completely liquidate. Such distribution and liquidation will be accomplished, with respect to the Acquired Fund’s shares, by the transfer of the Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to the account of the Acquired Fund on the books of the Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the share records of the Acquiring Fund in the names of the Acquired Fund Stockholders. The aggregate net asset value of Acquiring Fund Shares to be so credited to Acquired Fund Stockholders shall be equal to the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired Fund shares owned by such stockholders on the Closing Date. All issued and outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Acquired Fund.

1.5   Ownership of Acquiring Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the Acquiring Fund or its Transfer Agent, as defined in paragraph 3.3.

1.6   Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Fund including, but not limited to, the responsibility for filing of regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), any state securities commission, and any federal, state or local tax authorities or any other relevant regulatory authority, is and shall remain the responsibility of the Acquired Fund.

1.7 For the period beginning at the Closing Date and ending not less than six years thereafter, Griffin Capital Credit Advisor LLC at its expense shall provide, or cause to be provided, professional liability “run-off” insurance coverage (the “Run-Off Coverage”) at least comparable to the liability coverage currently applicable to the Independent Directors of the Acquired Fund, covering the actions of such directors for the period they served as such. Such Run-Off Coverage shall not require an Independent Director to seek indemnification from the Acquiring Fund prior to, or as a condition of the making of a claim or the payment of a claim under the Run-Off Coverage.

2.    VALUATION

2.1   The value of the Assets shall be the value computed as of immediately after the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange and after the declaration of any dividends at or prior to the Closing Date (such time and date being hereinafter called the “Valuation Date”), using the valuation procedures of the Acquired Fund.

2.2   The net asset value of the Acquiring Fund Shares shall be the net asset value per share computed as of the Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures of the Acquiring Fund.

2.3   The number of Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued (including fractional shares, if any) in exchange for the Acquired Fund’s Assets shall be determined by dividing the value of the net assets with respect to the shares of the Acquired Fund determined using the same valuation procedures referred to in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of an Acquiring Fund Share, determined in accordance with paragraph 2.2.

2.4   Griffin Capital BDC Administrator, LLC shall make all computations of value, in its capacity as administrator for the Acquired Fund.

2.5   All computations of value hereunder shall be made in accordance with the Acquired Fund’s regular practice and the requirements of the 1940 Act, and shall be subject to confirmation by the Acquired Fund’s respective independent registered public accounting firm upon reasonable request of the other Fund.

3.    CLOSING AND CLOSING DATE

3.1   The Closing Date shall be July 31, 2017, or such other date as the parties may agree.

The Acquired Fund shall have delivered to the Acquiring Fund a certificate executed in the Acquired Fund’s name by its Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Acquiring Fund, and dated as of the Closing Date, to the effect that all necessary taxes in connection with the delivery of the Assets, including all applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps, if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made. The Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities represented by a certificate or other written instrument shall be presented by the Custodian as custodian for both Funds, from the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund for examination no later than on the next business day following the Closing Date, and shall be transferred and delivered by the Acquired Fund on the next business day following the Closing Date for the account of the Acquiring Fund duly endorsed in proper form for transfer in such condition as to constitute good delivery thereof. The Custodian shall deliver as of the Closing Date by book entry, in accordance with the customary practices of such depositories and the Custodian, the Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities and instruments deposited with a “securities depository”, as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the 1940 Act.

The Acquiring Fund shall issue and deliver a confirmation evidencing the Acquiring Fund Shares to be credited on the Closing Date to the Secretary of the Acquired Fund, or provide evidence satisfactory to the Acquired Fund that such Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to the Acquired Fund’s account on the books of the Acquiring Fund. At the Closing each party shall deliver to the other such bills of sale, checks, assignments, share certificates, if any, receipts or other documents as such other party or its counsel may reasonably request.

3.4   In the event that on the Valuation Date (a) the New York Stock Exchange or another primary trading market for portfolio securities of the Acquiring Fund or the Acquired Fund shall be closed to trading or trading thereupon shall be restricted, or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on such Exchange or elsewhere shall be disrupted so that accurate appraisal of the value of the net assets of the Acquired Fund or the Acquiring Fund is impracticable, the

Closing Date shall be postponed until the first business day after the day when trading shall have been fully resumed and reporting shall have been restored.

8.1   All representations and warranties of the Acquired Fund contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and, except as they may be affected by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as of the Closing Date, with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the Closing Date;

8.5   The Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund shall have agreed on the number of full and fractional Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued in connection with the Reorganization after such number has been calculated in accordance with paragraph 2.3.

9.1   This Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein shall have been approved by the requisite vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund, as necessary, in accordance with the Acquired Fund’s charter and bylaws, applicable Maryland law and the 1940 Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Acquired Fund nor the Acquiring Fund may waive the conditions set forth in this paragraph 9.1;

9.4   The Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall have become effective under the 1933 Act and no stop orders suspending the effectiveness thereof shall have been issued and, to the best knowledge of the parties hereto, no investigation or proceeding for that purpose shall have been instituted or be pending, threatened or contemplated under the 1933 Act; and

9.5   The Acquiring Fund shall have received the opinion of Holland & Knight, LLP (“Tax Counsel”), addressed to both the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund substantially to the effect that, based upon certain facts, assumptions, and representations, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement should, for Federal income tax purposes, qualify as a tax-free reorganization described in Section 368(a) of the Code. The delivery of such opinion is conditioned upon receipt of representations Tax Counsel shall request of the Acquired Fund. The Tax opinion from Tax Counsel shall provide substantially to the effect that, on the basis of the existing provisions of the Code, Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, current administrative rules, and court decisions, although the matter is not free from doubt, generally for federal income tax purposes:

(a) The acquisition by the Acquiring Fund of the assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange for the Acquiring Fund’s assumption of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund and issuance of the Acquiring Fund Shares, followed by the distribution by the Acquired Fund of such Acquiring Fund Shares to the Acquired Fund Stockholders in exchange for their Acquired Fund shares, all as provided in Section I hereof, will constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)( I )(F) of the Code, and the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund each will be "a party to a reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code;

(b) Under Code Section 361, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquired Fund (i) upon the transfer of its assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange for the Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund or (ii) upon the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares by the Acquired Fund to its stockholders in liquidation, as contemplated in Section l hereof;

(c) Under Code Section 1032, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquiring Fund upon the receipt of the assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange for the assumption of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund and issuance of the Acquiring Fund shares as contemplated in Section l hereof;

(d) Under Code Section 362(b), the tax basis of the assets of the Acquired Fund acquired by the Acquiring Fund will be the same as the tax basis of such assets in the hands of the Acquired Fund immediately prior to the transfer;

(e) Under Code Section 1223(2), the holding periods of the assets of the Acquired Fund in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will include the periods during which such assets were held by the Acquired Fund;

(f) Under Code Section 354, no gain or loss will be recognized by Acquired Fund Stockholders upon the exchange of all of their Acquired Fund shares for the Acquiring Fund Shares;

(g) Under Code Section 358, the aggregate tax basis of the Acquiring Fund Shares to be received by each stockholder of the Acquired Fund will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of Acquired Fund shares exchanged therefor;

(h) Under Code Section 1223( I ), an Acquired Fund Stockholder’s holding period for the Acquiring Fund Shares to be received will include the period during which Acquired Fund shares exchanged therefor were held, provided that the stockholder held Acquired Fund shares as a capital asset on the date of the exchange; and

(i) The Acquiring Fund will succeed to and take into account the items of the Acquired Fund described in Section 381(c) of the Code, pursuant to Section 381(a) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.381(a)-1, subject to the conditions and limitations specified in Sections 381, 382, 383 and 384 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

The opinion will be based on certain factual certifications made by officers of the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund and will also be based on customary assumptions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither party may waive the condition set forth in this paragraph 9.5.

9.6 The Acquired Fund shall have received a favorable opinion of Holland and Knight LLP dated the Closing Date, with such assumptions and limitations as shall be in the opinion of Holland and Knight LLP appropriate to render the opinions expressed therein, and in a form satisfactory to the Acquired Fund, which opinion may rely on a separate opinion of counsel as Holland and Knight LLP deems appropriate, including local counsel to the extent it relates to the laws of the State of Delaware, substantially to the following effect:

(a) The Acquiring Fund is validly existing as a statutory trust with transferable shares of beneficial interest under the laws of the State of Delaware and has power as a business trust to own all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted.

(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Acquiring Fund and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Acquired Fund is the valid and binding obligation of the Acquiring Fund enforceable against the Acquiring Fund in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and other equitable principles.

(c) Assuming that a consideration of not less than the net asset value thereof has been paid, the Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued for transfer to the Acquired Fund Stockholders as provided by this Agreement are duly authorized and upon such transfer and delivery will be validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and non-assessable Class F shares of beneficial interest in the Acquiring Fund.

(d) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Acquiring Fund did not, and the performance by the Acquiring Fund of its obligations hereunder will not, violate the Acquiring Fund’s Declaration of Trust or bylaws, or any provision of any material agreement known to such counsel to which the Acquiring Fund is a party or by which it is bound or, to the knowledge of such counsel, result in the acceleration of any obligation or the imposition of any

penalty under any material agreement, judgment, or decree to which the Acquiring Fund is a party or by which it is bound.

(e) To the knowledge of such counsel, no consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental authority is required for the consummation by the Acquiring Fund of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except such as may be required under state securities or blue sky laws or such as have been obtained.

(f) In the ordinary course of such counsel's representation of the Acquiring Fund, and without having made any investigation, and except as otherwise disclosed, such counsel is not aware of any litigation or administrative proceeding of or before any court or governmental body that is presently pending or threatened as to the Acquiring Fund or any of its properties or assets. in the ordinary course of such counsel's representation of the Acquiring Fund, and without having made any investigation, to the knowledge of such counsel, the Acquiring Fund is not a party to or subject to the provisions of any order, decree or judgment of any court or governmental body that materially and adversely affects the Acquiring Fund's business, other than as previously disclosed in the Registration Statement.

(g) The Acquiring Fund is registered with the Commission as an investment company under the 1940 Act.
