SECTION 1.07. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on an Advance denominated in USD or a Permitted Non-USD Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform.

The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") publicly announced that: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven euro LIBOR settings, all seven Swiss Franc LIBOR settings, the spot next, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings, the overnight, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings, and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease;



- 39 -

immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after December 31, 2021, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings and the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to consultation by the FCA, be provided on a changed methodology (or "synthetic") basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-In Election, Section 3.02 provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest in respect of Tranche A Advances. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company, pursuant to Section 3.02, of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on ana Tranche A Advance is based (it being understood that any such change in connection with an Early Opt-in Election shall be subject to the consent of the Company as and to the extent set forth in this Agreement).

SECTION 1.08. Additional Equity Contributions. The Parent may, but shall have no obligation to, at any time or from time to time make a capital contribution to the Company for any purpose, including for the purpose of curing any Default or Event of Default, in connection with a Market Value Cure, satisfying any Borrowing Base Test, enabling the acquisition or sale of any Portfolio Investment or satisfying any conditions under Section 2.04.

ARTICLE III
ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO THE ADVANCES
SECTION 3.01. The Advances.
(a) Making the Advances. If the Lenders are required to make an Advance to the Company as provided in Section 2.03, then each Lender shall make such Advance in the applicable Currency on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collateral Agent for deposit to the Principal Collection Account (or, in the case of Advances denominated in a Permitted Non-USD Currency, the applicable Permitted Non-USD Currency Principal Collection Account) (or, to the extent set forth in the Effective Date Letter, shall make such Advance available as otherwise set forth in the Effective Date Letter). Each Lender at its option may make any Advance by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may borrow and prepay Advances. The Company may, during the Reinvestment Period, prepay and reborrow Advances in an amount up to (x) the aggregate Financing Commitments of the Lenders on such date minus (y) the Minimum Funding Amount, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, once prepaid, Advances may not be reborrowed.
(b) Interest on the Advances. Subject to Section 3.02, all outstanding Advances shall bear interest (from and including the date on which such Advance is made) at a per annum rate equal to (i) in the case of Tranche A Advances, the applicable Benchmark and (ii) in the case of Tranche B  Advances, the Term SOFR Rate, in each case, for each Calculation Period in effect plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin for Advances set forth on the Transaction Schedule; provided that, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all outstanding Advances and any unpaid interest thereon shall bear interest (from and including the date of such Event of Default) at a per annum rate equal to (i) in the case of Tranche A Advances, the applicable Benchmark and (ii) in the case of  Tranche B Advances, the Term SOFR Rate, in each case, for each Calculation Period in effect plus, in each case, the Adjusted Applicable Margin; provided further that, for purposes of this Section 3.01(b), if the aggregate amount of outstanding Advances at any time is less than the Minimum Funding Amount, the amount of outstanding Advances at such time shall be deemed to equal the Minimum Funding Amount and the interest rate in respect of the positive difference between the Minimum Funding Amount and the aggregate outstanding amount of the Advances shall be deemed to be the Applicable Margin for Advances set forth on the Transaction Schedule (or, if applicable pursuant to the first proviso above, the Adjusted Applicable Margin). For purposes of the foregoing, the Benchmark for each Calculation Period with respect to Daily Simple SONIA shall be the weighted average, as reasonably calculated by the Administrative Agent, of such Benchmark as determined on each day during such Calculation Period in respect of Advances denominated in GBP.



- 46 -

(c) Evidence of the Advances. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to such Lender resulting from each Advance made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder and the applicable Currency thereof. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices a register (the "Register") in which it shall record (1) the amount of each Advance made hereunder, (2) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Lender hereunder, (3) whether each applicable Advance constitutes a Tranche A  Advance or a Tranche B Advance and (3 (4) the amount of any sum received by the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof. The entries made in the Register maintained pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such Register or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Any Lender may request that Advances made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Company shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if a registered note is requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Thereafter, the Advances evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).
(d) Pro Rata Treatment. Except as otherwise provided herein (including, for the  avoidance of doubt, Section 1.05(b) and Section 4.07(a)), all borrowings of, and payments in respect of, the Advances shall be made on a pro rata basis by or to the Lenders in accordance with their respective portions of the Financing Commitments in respect of Advances held by them.
(e) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company that the adoption of any law, rule or regulation, or any change therein or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for a Lender or the Administrative Agent to perform its obligations hereunder to fund or maintain Advances hereunder (in the aggregate or in any applicable Currency), then (1) the obligation of such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall immediately be suspended (in the aggregate or with respect to the applicable Currency) until such time as such Lender or the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole discretion) that such performance is again lawful, (2) at the request of the Company, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, other than immaterial, incidental expenses), until such time as the Advances are required to be prepaid as required under clause (3) below, to transfer all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (in the aggregate or with respect to the applicable Currency) to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates with respect to which such performance would not be unlawful, and (3) if such Lender or the Administrative Agent is unable to effect a transfer under clause (2), then (I) any outstanding Advances of such Lender (in the aggregate or with respect to such Currency, as applicable) shall be promptly paid in full by the Company (together with all accrued interest and other amounts owing hereunder) but not later than the earlier of (x) if the Company requests such Lender or the Administrative Agent to take the actions set forth in clause (2) above, 20 calendar days after the date on which such Lender or the Administrative Agent notifies the Company in writing that it is unable to transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement as specified in such clause (2) and (y) such date as shall be mandated by law or (II) with respect to any Advance denominated in a Permitted Non-USD Currency, if requested by the Portfolio Manager or the



- 47 -

Company, any outstanding Advances in such Permitted Non-USD Currency shall be converted to an Advance denominated in USD on the date specified by the Administrative Agent at the Spot Rate and shall become denominated and payable in USD and thereafter shall bear interest at the rates applicable to Advances denominated in USD and the Company shall pay all amounts owing in connection therewith, including all interest accrued on the Advances being converted through such date; provided that, to the extent that any such adoption or change makes it unlawful for the Advances to bear interest by reference to a particular Reference Rate or Term SOFR Reference Rate, then the foregoing clauses (1) through (3) shall not apply and the Advances subject to such Reference Rate or Term SOFR Reference Rate, as  applicable, shall bear interest (from and after the last day of the Calculation Period ending immediately after such adoption or change) at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Advances set forth on the Transaction Schedule (or the Adjusted Applicable Margin, if applicable).
(f) Increased Costs.
(i) If any Change in Law shall:
(A) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender;
(B) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market (or other applicable interest rate market) any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Advances made by such Lender; or
(C) subject any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes (other than (x) Indemnified Taxes, (y) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (z) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or the Administrative Agent of making, continuing, converting or maintaining any Advance or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, upon request by such Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Company will pay to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(ii) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Advances made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.



- 48 -

(iii) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate, and the basis for such compensation of, such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (i) or (ii) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 20 days after receipt thereof.
(iv) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or the Administrative Agent's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Administrative Agent notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or the Administrative Agent's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
(v) Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agrees that it will take such commercially reasonable actions as the Company may reasonably request that will avoid the need to pay, or reduce the amount of, any increased amounts referred to in this Section 3.01(f); provided that no Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be obligated to take any actions that would, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, be disadvantageous to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, due to a loss of money). In no event will the Company be responsible for increased amounts referred to in this Section 3.01(f) which relates to any other entities to which any Lender provides financing.
(vi) If any Lender (A) provides notice of unlawfulness or requests compensation under clause (e) above or this clause (f) or (B) defaults in its obligation to make Advances hereunder, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon written notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related transaction documents to an assignee identified by the Company that shall assume such obligations (whereupon such Lender shall be obligated to so assign), provided that, (x) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder through the date of such assignment and (y) a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. No prepayment fee that may otherwise be due hereunder shall be payable to such Lender in connection with any such assignment.
(g) No Set-off or counterclaim. Subject to Section 3.03, all payments to be made hereunder by the Company in respect of the Advances shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and in such amounts as may be necessary in order that every such payment (after deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future Taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Company is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority therein or thereof) shall not be less than the amounts otherwise specified to be paid under this Agreement.
SECTION 3.02. Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. (a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 3.02  (in the case of



- 49 -
