All or a portion of any Forward Purchases pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be conducted in a manner such that the Purchased Loans held the longest by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub will be purchased first; provided, however, that the Parties may agree in writing to conduct such Forward Purchase on a pro rata basis for all or a portion of the Purchased Loans (or in such other manner as the Parties may otherwise agree).

(d)Subject to Section 2.4, on the Trigger Date, the Purchaser shall be required to purchase all Purchased Loans and assume Available Unfunded Commitments held by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, at a price and subject to such economic terms and provisions determined pursuant to the terms and provisions hereof.

(e)For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Purchased Loan, any Available Unfunded Commitment or any portion of the foregoing, in the event that no notice requiring a Trade Date for such Purchased Loan, such Available Unfunded Commitment or such portion of the foregoing has been delivered in accordance with (and subject to the limitations set forth in) Section 2.2(a) by the Scheduled Facility End Date, none of the Parties may require under this Agreement for the other party to purchase or sell, as applicable, such Purchased Loan, such Available Unfunded Commitment or such portion of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and other than with respect to any Asset-Based Finance or portion thereof, in the event that any portion of a Purchased Loan held by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub has been repaid or prepaid and has become unavailable to be reborrowed and all related Available Unfunded Commitments to such

Purchased Loan have been terminated, not funded and have become not available to be reborrowed by the underlying obligor, Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, shall retain all amounts in connection therewith except as expressly set forth in subclause (iii) of clause (b) below or the final sentence of clause (b) below and, in each case, the Purchaser shall not owe Cliffwater or CCLF Sub any Additional Consideration in connection therewith.

To the extent not reflected in the Purchase Price, Cliffwater and CCLF Sub agree that if they receive any amounts that the Purchaser is entitled to under this clause (b), then Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, shall remit such amounts to the Purchaser within two (2) business days of the receipt thereof. For the avoidance of doubt and other than with respect to any Asset-Based Finance, (x) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of any Excess Amounts not otherwise deducted therefrom and (y) in the event that a Purchased Loan has been repaid or prepaid in full (other than contingent obligations) by the underlying obligor or an Available Unfunded Commitment is terminated in full, Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, agrees to remit all amounts specified in subclause (iii) of this clause (b) and all other Excess Amounts that, in each case, are received, or have previously been received, by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub with respect to such Purchased Loan and such Available Unfunded Commitment to the Purchaser within two (2) business days of the later of the date of such repayment or prepayment in full and the date of receipt thereof.

(c)For purposes of calculating the Purchase Price of any Forward Purchase Asset that is an Asset-Based Finance or portion thereof, (i) all Principal Proceeds (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any payment-in-kind interest) that paid in respect of such Forward Purchase Asset during the Holding Period of such Forward Purchase Asset shall be solely for the benefit of Cliffwater or CCLF Sub and retained by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, and (ii) all other interest, fees and other amounts (excluding amounts paid to Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, on account of indemnifications and expense reimbursements pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Related Documents thereto) in respect of such Forward Purchase Asset before, during and after the Holding Period of such Forward Purchase Asset shall be solely for the Purchaser’s benefit and reflected in the Purchase Price if received prior to the Trade Date of such Forward Purchase Asset and, to the extent received or payable on or after such Trade Date retained by the Purchaser; in the event that Cliffwater or CCLF Sub receives payment of any such amount (and such amount was not otherwise netted in the calculation of the Purchase Price), Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, shall remit such amount to the Purchaser within two (2) business days of the receipt thereof. To the extent not reflected in the Purchase Price, Cliffwater or CCLF Sub agrees that if it receives any amounts that the Purchaser is entitled to under this clause (c), then Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, shall remit such amounts to the Purchaser within two (2) business days of the receipt thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchase Price for any Asset-Based Finance shall be

reduced by the amount of any Excess Amounts not otherwise deducted therefrom. In the event that an investment that is an Asset-Based Finance has been repaid or prepaid in full (other than contingent obligations) by the underlying obligor or an Available Unfunded Commitment that is an Asset-Based Finance is terminated in full, Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, shall (x) be required to remit Excess Amounts and Termination Fees that are received, or have previously been received, by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, with respect to such Asset-Based Finance to the Purchaser within two (2) business days of the later of the date of such repayment or prepayment in full and the date of receipt thereof and (y) retain all other amounts specified in subclause (ii) of this clause (c).

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 2.3(a), (b) or (c), (i) for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 2.3 shall be duplicative of any amounts (whether payable, credits, deductions, additions or otherwise) that are part of the calculation of the Purchase Price and (ii) with respect to any fees or other amounts not specified in Section 2.3, each of the Purchaser and Cliffwater, including on behalf of CCLF Sub, shall cooperate in good faith to determine whether such fees or other amounts shall be allocated to the Purchaser, Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, with such determination to be made using rationales reasonably consistent with the rationales used to determine the allocations set forth in Section 2.3(a), (b) and (c) and the definition of Purchase Price.

Section 2.4.Capital Condition. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, the Purchaser shall not be required, at any time prior to the Trigger Date, to enter into any transaction to purchase any Purchased Loan or Available Unfunded Commitment pursuant to, or be subject to any other obligations arising under, this Agreement unless and until the Trade Date in respect of such Purchased Loan or such Available Unfunded Commitment has occurred and, on or prior to the Scheduled Facility End Date, the Capital Condition has been satisfied.

Section 2.5.Cliffwater and CCLF Sub’s Covenants.

(a)Absent the occurrence of the Scheduled Facility End Date or the Trigger Date, Cliffwater and CCLF Sub will not directly or indirectly sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Purchased Loan or any Available Unfunded Commitments other than to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof; provided that each of Cliffwater and CCLF Sub shall be permitted to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the portion of Purchased Loans and Available Unfunded Commitments that Cliffwater or CCLF Sub attempts, but is unable, to sell to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.2 to the extent that the Purchaser (i) defaults in any material respect on its obligations under Section 2.2 not due to any act or omission by Cliffwater, CCLF Sub or any of their affiliates or any of their lenders with respect to such portion of such Purchased Loans and Available Unfunded Commitments and (ii) has not cured such default prior to the date of such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition by the fifth business day after the earlier of the Purchaser being notified in writing or otherwise becoming aware of such default; provided, further, that Cliffwater, including on behalf of CCLF Sub, may pledge any Purchased Loans and Available Unfunded Commitments to secure obligations of Cliffwater or CCLF Sub to an unaffiliated third party financing provider to Cliffwater or CCLF Sub in the ordinary course of business of Cliffwater or CCLF Sub (which pledge shall be released on or prior to the Settlement Date of the Forward Purchase of such Purchased Loan and Available Unfunded Commitment). Subject to the immediately foregoing sentence, Cliffwater, including on behalf of CCLF Sub, shall not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind with respect to any Purchased Loan or Available Unfunded Commitment.

(b)Cliffwater and CCLF Sub hereby covenant and agree that this Agreement and their respective obligations hereunder do not and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of, any agreement

(including, without limitation, any hedging agreement) that it is a party to in any material respect and that at all times they will be able to consummate each Forward Purchase and sell, assign and transfer each Purchased Loan and each Available Unfunded Commitment to the Purchaser (or its designee) free and clear of all Liens on the applicable Settlement Date.

(c)Prior to the Scheduled Facility End Date (and, in the event the Trade Date for any Forward Purchase Asset has occurred but such Forward Purchase Asset has not yet been assigned to Purchaser (or its designee), prior to the date of the assignment of such Forward Purchase Asset to Purchaser (or its designee), whether before or after the Scheduled Facility End Date), Cliffwater shall at all times directly hold 100% of each class of voting and economic equity interests in CCLF Sub and shall at all times control all decisions of CCLF Sub (either as its sole member or sole manager or through control of each member of the board of directors or equivalent governing body of CCLF Sub).

Section 2.6.    Voting of Loans. Cliffwater and CCLF Sub (i) shall not take (and shall refrain from taking) any action with respect to which Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, has the right to vote on or consent to any waiver, amendment, modification or other action with respect to any Purchased Loan or Available Unfunded Commitment or any documentation relating thereto (collectively, “Voting Rights”), except to exercise Sacred Voting Rights or otherwise in accordance with the prior instructions of the Purchaser and (ii) shall take (or refrain from taking) any action with respect to the Voting Rights (other than any Sacred Voting Rights) in accordance with the prior instructions of Purchaser.

The Purchaser may, but is not required, to request that Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, take or cause to be taken (or refrain or cause to refrain from taking) any action with respect to the Sacred Voting Rights (such request, a “Sacred Voting Rights Request”) and Cliffwater or CCLF Sub will notify the Purchaser whether it will or will not exercise the Sacred Voting Rights in accordance with the Sacred Voting Rights Request. For the avoidance of doubt, Cliffwater and CCLF Sub shall be entitled to take (or refrain from taking) any action in their sole discretion in respect of any Sacred Voting Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree that, if Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, under the terms of this Agreement, becomes capable of selling, transferring, assigning or otherwise disposing of any portion of Purchased Loans to any person or entity other than Purchaser (or its designee), Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, may take any action in respect of the Voting Rights with respect to such Purchased Loans, and any obligations of Cliffwater or CCLF Sub and the rights of the Purchaser under this Section 2.6 in respect of such Purchased Loans shall become null and void (irrespective of whether Cliffwater or CCLF Sub actually sells, transfer, assigns or otherwise disposes of any portion of Purchased Loans).

Section 2.7.    Documentation, Reports, etc. Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, shall, within seven (7) business days of any written request by the Purchaser, confirm such information as the Purchaser may reasonably request in respect of each Purchased Loan and Available Unfunded Commitments as the amount actually funded by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, in cash in respect of such Purchased Loan or the OID and Fees in respect of such Purchased Loans and Available Unfunded Commitments, the Principal Repayment Amount in respect of any Purchased Loan and Available Unfunded Commitment and other amounts or property received by Cliffwater or CCLF Sub, as applicable, in connection with such Purchased Loan and Available Unfunded Commitment.
