Note 1. Principal Business and Organization
FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK), or the Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007 and formally commenced investment operations on January 2, 2009. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, the Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or RIC, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. The Company has various wholly-owned subsidiaries, including special-purpose financing subsidiaries and subsidiaries through which it holds interests in portfolio companies. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include both the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2024. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes.
The Company’s investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. The Company's portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private middle-market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans and certain asset-based financing loans of private U.S. companies. In addition, a portion of the Company’s portfolio may be comprised of equity and equity-related securities, corporate bonds, structured products, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps.
The Company is externally managed by FS/KKR Advisor, LLC, or the Adviser, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement, dated as of June 16, 2021, or the investment advisory agreement. Prior to entering into the investment advisory agreement, the Company was a party to an investment advisory agreement, dated as of December 20, 2018, with the Adviser, or the prior investment advisory agreement, which remained in effect until June 16, 2021.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, the Company’s interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with its audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. The December 31, 2023 consolidated balance sheet and consolidated schedule of investments are derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company is considered an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies under Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Capital Gains Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory agreement). This fee equals 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains, which shall equal the realized capital gains of Corporate Capital Trust, Inc., or CCT, (as predecessor-by-merger to the Company), FS KKR Capital Corp. II, or FSKR, (as predecessor-by-merger to the Company) and the Company (without duplication) on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation (without duplication) on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any capital gain incentive fees previously paid by CCT, FSKR and the Company. On a quarterly basis, the Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.
The Company includes unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to the Adviser if the Company’s entire portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though the Adviser is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Subordinated Income Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Adviser may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income under the investment advisory agreement, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 17.5% of the Company’s “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets, equal to 1.75% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.0%. As a result, the Adviser will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.75%. Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, the Adviser will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.12%, or 8.48% annually, of net assets. Thereafter, the Adviser will be entitled to receive 17.5% of pre-incentive fee net investment income. See Note 4 for a discussion of the subordinated incentive fee on income under the prior investment advisory agreement.
Revenue Recognition: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The Company records interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that it expects to collect such amounts. The Company records dividend income on the ex-dividend date. Distributions received from limited liability company (“LLC”) and limited partnership (“LP”) investments are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. The Company does not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if it has reason to doubt its ability to collect such income. The Company’s policy is to place investments on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that interest income will be collected. The Company considers many factors relevant to an investment when placing it on or removing it from non-accrual status including, but not limited to, the delinquency status of the investment, economic and business conditions, the overall financial condition of the underlying investment, the value of the underlying collateral, bankruptcy status, if any, and any other facts or circumstances relevant to the investment. If there is reasonable doubt that the Company will receive any previously accrued interest, then the accrued interest will be written-off. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the collectability of the remaining principal and interest. Non-accrual investments may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are likely to remain current based on the Company’s judgment.
Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and the Company amortizes such amounts as interest income over the respective term of the loan or security. Upon the prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as interest income. Structuring and other non-recurring upfront fees are recorded as fee income when earned. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $21 and $6, respectively, in structuring fee revenue. The Company records prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when it receives such amounts.
Derivative Instruments: The Company’s derivative instruments include foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps. The Company has designated certain interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in a qualifying fair value hedge accounting relationship, and as a result, the change in fair value of the hedging instruments and hedged items are recorded in and recognized as components of interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The change in fair value of the interest rate swaps is offset by a change in the carrying value of the corresponding fixed rate debt.
For all other derivatives, the Company does not utilize hedge accounting and recognizes such derivative instruments as assets or liabilities at fair value in its consolidated financial statements. Changes in fair value of derivative contracts entered into by the Company which have not been designated as hedging instruments are recognized through the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains and losses on the derivative instruments are included in net realized gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the administrator for the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan, or DRP, purchased 1,628,448 shares of common stock in the open market at an average price per share of $19.95 (totaling $32) pursuant to the DRP, and distributed such shares to participants in the DRP. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the administrator for the DRP purchased 1,562,243 shares of common stock in the open market at an average price per share of $18.37 (totaling $29) pursuant to the DRP, and distributed such shares to participants in the DRP. During the period from July 1, 2024 to July 31, 2024, the administrator for the DRP purchased 761,358 shares of common stock in the open market at an average price per share of $20.31 (totaling $15) pursuant to the DRP, and distributed such shares to participants in the DRP. For additional information regarding the terms of the DRP, see Note 5.
Share Repurchase Program
On October 31, 2022, the Company's board of directors approved a renewal of the previously approved stock repurchase program. The program provided for aggregate purchases of the Company’s common stock in an amount up to $54, which was the aggregate amount remaining of the $100 amount originally approved by the board of directors. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 1,665,317 shares of common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program at an average price per share (inclusive of commissions paid) of $18.89 (totaling $32). The program has concluded since the aggregate repurchase amount that was approved by the Company’s board of directors has been expended.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions
Compensation of the Investment Adviser
Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, the Adviser is entitled to a base management fee calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the average weekly value of the Company’s gross assets excluding cash and cash equivalents (gross assets equal the total assets of the Company as set forth on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets) and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. Effective June 15, 2019, in connection with stockholder approval of the modification of the asset coverage requirement applicable to senior securities from 200% to 150%, the Adviser reduced (by permanent waiver) the annual base management fee payable under the investment advisory agreement from 1.5% to 1.0% on all assets financed using leverage over 1.0x debt-to-equity. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. All or any part of the base management fee not taken as to any quarter will be deferred without interest and may be taken in such other quarter as the Adviser determines. The prior investment advisory agreement had substantially similar terms as the investment advisory agreement, except that the investment advisory agreement amended the prior investment advisory agreement to (i) reduce the Company’s income incentive fee rate from 20% to 17.5%; and (ii) remove the total return lookback provision applicable to the subordinated incentive fee on income from the prior investment advisory agreement. Under the prior investment advisory agreement, the subordinated incentive fee on income was subject to a cap equal to (i) 20.0% of the “per share pre-incentive fee return” for the then-current and eleven preceding calendar quarters minus the cumulative “per share incentive fees” accrued and/or payable for the eleven preceding calendar quarters multiplied by (ii) the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the calendar quarter (or any portion thereof) for which the subordinated incentive fee on income was being calculated. The definitions of “per share pre-incentive fee return” and “per share incentive fees” under the prior investment advisory agreement took into account the historic per share pre-incentive fee return of both the Company and CCT, together with the historic per share incentive fees paid by both the Company and CCT. For the purpose of calculating the “per share pre-incentive fee return,” any unrealized appreciation or depreciation recognized as a result of the purchase accounting for the Company’s acquisition of CCT was excluded. See Note 2 for a discussion of the capital gains and subordinated income incentive fees that the Advisor may be entitled to under the investment advisory agreement.
On June 16, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition, or the 2021 Merger, of FSKR pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the 2020 Merger Agreement, dated as of November 23, 2020, by and among the Company, FSKR, Rocky Merger Sub, Inc., a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, or Merger Sub, and the Adviser. In connection with the entry into the investment advisory agreement, the Adviser agreed to waive income incentive fees in the amount of $15 per quarter for the first six full fiscal quarters of operations following the closing of the 2021 Merger, commencing on July 1, 2021, for a total waiver of $90. The fee waiver expired on December 31, 2022. In addition, the Adviser has agreed to exclude from the calculation of the subordinated incentive fee on income and the incentive fee on capital gains any changes to the fair value recorded for the assets and liabilities of FSKR resulting solely from the new cost basis of the acquired FSKR investments determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805-50, Business Combinations—Related Issues as a result of the 2021 Merger.
On April 9, 2018, the Company entered into an administration agreement with the Adviser, or the administration agreement. Pursuant to the administration agreement, the Adviser oversees the Company’s day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations, certain government and regulatory affairs activities, and other administrative services. The Adviser also performs, or oversees the performance of, the Company’s corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports for the Company’s stockholders and reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. In addition, the Adviser assists the Company in calculating its net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Company’s stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others.
Pursuant to the administration agreement, the Company reimburses the Adviser for expenses necessary to perform services related to its administration and operations, including the Adviser’s allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of Franklin Square Holdings, L.P., which does business as FS Investments, or FS Investments, and KKR Credit Advisors (US), LLC, or KKR Credit, providing administrative services to the Company on behalf of the Adviser. The Company reimburses the Adviser no less than quarterly for all costs and expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the administration agreement. The Adviser allocates the cost of such services to the Company based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. The Company’s board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to the Company and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among the Company and certain affiliates of the Adviser. The Company’s board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to it based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to the Company of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, the Company’s board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(in millions, except share and per share amounts)
Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)
all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, the Company’s board of directors compares the total amount paid to the Adviser for such services as a percentage of the Company’s net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.
The following table describes the fees and expenses accrued under the investment advisory agreement and the administration agreement, as applicable, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

________________
(1)During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, $111 and $117 in base management fees were paid to the Adviser. As of June 30, 2024, $54 in base management fees were payable to the Adviser.
(2)During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, $85 and $73, respectively, of subordinated incentive fees on income were paid to the Adviser. As of June 30, 2024, subordinated incentive fees on income of $44 were payable to the Adviser.
(3)During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, $4 and $6, respectively, of administrative services expenses related to the allocation of costs of administrative personnel for services rendered to the Company by the Adviser and the remainder related to other reimbursable expenses, including reimbursement of fees related to transactional expenses for prospective investments, such as fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence reviews of investments that do not close, often referred to as “broken deal” costs. Broken deal costs were $0.5 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company paid $3 and $7, respectively, in administrative services expenses to the Adviser during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
The members of the senior management and investment teams of the Adviser serve or may serve as officers, directors or principals of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business as the Company does, or of investment vehicles managed by the same personnel. For example, the Adviser is the investment adviser to KKR FS Income Trust and KKR FS Income Trust Select, and the officers, managers and other personnel of the Adviser may serve in similar or other capacities for the investment advisers to future investment vehicles affiliated with FS Investments or KKR Credit. In serving in these multiple and other capacities, they may have obligations to other clients or investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which may not be in the Company’s best interests or in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders. The Company’s investment objectives may overlap with the investment objectives of such investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles. For additional information regarding potential conflicts of interest, see the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Exemptive Relief
As a BDC, the Company is subject to certain regulatory restrictions in making its investments. For example, BDCs generally are not permitted to co-invest with certain affiliated entities in transactions originated by the BDC or its affiliates in the absence of an exemptive order from the SEC. However, BDCs are permitted to, and may, simultaneously co-invest in transactions where price is the only negotiated term.
In an order dated June 4, 2013, or the FS Order, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with certain affiliates of its former investment adviser and any future BDCs that are advised by its former investment adviser or its affiliated investment advisers. However, in connection with the investment advisory relationship with the Adviser, and in an effort to mitigate potential future conflicts of interest, the Company’s board of directors authorized and directed that the Company (i) withdraw from the FS Order, except with respect to any transaction in which the Company participated in reliance on the FS Order prior to April 9, 2018, and (ii) rely on an exemptive relief order, dated January 5, 2021, that permits the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions, including investments originated and directly negotiated by the Adviser or KKR Credit, with certain affiliates of the Adviser.
Affiliated Purchaser Program
As previously disclosed, certain affiliates of the owners of the Adviser committed $100 to a $350 investment vehicle that may invest from time to time in shares of the Company’s common stock. In September 2021 and December 2021, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act to facilitate the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan.

(in millions, except share and per share amounts)
Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)
In September 2022, August 2023, and March 2024, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act to facilitate the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The Company is not a party to any transaction with the investment vehicle.
Note 5. Distributions
The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that the Company has declared on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Distribution |
For the Three Months Ended | | Per Share | | Amount |
Fiscal 2023 | | | | |
March 31, 2023 | | $ | 0.70 | | | $ | 196 | |
June 30, 2023 | | 0.75 | | | 210 | |

June 30, 2024 | | 0.75 | | | 210 | |
| | | | |
Total | | $ | 1.50 | | | $ | 420 | |
On July 31, 2024, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash distribution of $0.70 per share, which will be paid on or about October 2, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 11, 2024. Additionally, the Company's board of directors previously declared special distributions totaling $0.10 per share to be paid in two equal installments by the second calendar quarter of 2024. The first of these two $0.05 per share special distributions was paid on February 28, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 14, 2024. The second $0.05 per share special distribution was paid on May 29, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2024. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors.
Pursuant to the DRP, the Company will reinvest all cash dividends or distributions declared by the Company’s board of directors on behalf of stockholders who do not elect to receive their distributions in cash. As a result, if the Company’s board of directors declares a distribution, then stockholders who have not elected to “opt out” of the DRP will have their distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock.
With respect to each distribution pursuant to the DRP, the Company reserves the right to either issue new shares of common stock or purchase shares of common stock in the open market in connection with implementation of the DRP. Unless the Company, in its sole discretion, otherwise directs the plan administrator, (A) if the per share market price (as defined in the DRP) is equal to or greater than the estimated net asset value per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) of the Company’s common stock on the payment date for the distribution, then the Company will issue shares of common stock at the greater of (i) net asset value per share of common stock or (ii) 95% of the market price; or (B) if the market price is less than the net asset value per share, then, in the sole discretion of the Company, (i) shares of common stock will be purchased in open market transactions for the accounts of participants to the extent practicable, or (ii) the Company will issue shares of common stock at net asset value per share. Pursuant to the terms of the DRP, the number of shares of common stock to be issued to a participant will be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to a participant by the price per share at which the Company issues such shares; provided, however, that shares purchased in open market transactions by the plan administrator will be allocated to a participant based on the average purchase price, excluding any brokerage charges or other charges, of all shares of common stock purchased in the open market.
If a stockholder receives distributions in the form of common stock pursuant to the DRP, such stockholder generally will be subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as if it elected to receive distributions in cash. If the Company’s common stock is trading at or below net asset value, a stockholder receiving distributions in the form of additional common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount of cash that they would have received if they had elected to receive the distribution in cash. If the Company’s common stock is trading above net asset value, a stockholder receiving distributions in the form of additional common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. The stockholder’s basis for determining gain or loss upon the sale of common stock received in a distribution will be equal to the total
FS KKR Capital Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(in millions, except share and per share amounts)
Note 5. Distributions (continued)
dollar amount of the distribution payable to the stockholder. Any stock received in a distribution will have a holding period for tax purposes commencing on the day following the day on which the shares of common stock are credited to the stockholder’s account.
The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds legally available to it, including proceeds from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, and dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. During certain periods, the Company’s distributions may exceed its earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions the Company makes may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholder’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from the Company’s investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on the sale of securities, and/or a return of capital, which is a nontaxable distribution) will be mailed to the Company’s stockholders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.
The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions on a tax basis that the Company has paid on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

(1)During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, 88.3% and 86.2%, respectively, of the Company’s gross investment income was attributable to cash income earned, 2.8% and 3.1%, respectively, was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount and 8.9% and 10.7%, respectively, was attributable to PIK interest.
The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of the Company’s distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders are reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.
Net capital losses may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term or long-term losses. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains of approximately $2,323. Because of the loss limitation rules of the Code, some of the tax basis losses may be limited in their use. Any unused balances resulting from such limitations may be carried forward into future years indefinitely.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s gross unrealized appreciation on a tax basis was $1,263 and $1,282, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s gross unrealized depreciation on a tax basis was $2,238 and $2,418, respectively.
The aggregate cost of the Company’s investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes totaled $15,798 and $16,517 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on a tax basis was $(1,711) and $(1,868) as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on a tax basis excludes net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from merger accounting, foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency transactions.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a deferred tax liability of $4 resulting from unrealized appreciation on investments held by the Company’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries and a deferred tax asset of $113 resulting from a combination of unrealized depreciation on investments held by and net operating losses and other tax attributes of the Company’s wholly-owned taxable

Credit Opportunities Partners JV, LLC
COPJV is a joint venture between the Company and South Carolina Retirement Systems Group Trust, or SCRS. SCRS purchased its interests in COPJV from Conway Capital, LLC, an affiliate of Guggenheim Life and Annuity Company and Delaware Life Insurance Company, in June 2019, which had no impact on the significant terms governing COPJV other than an increase in the aggregate capital commitment (but not the percentage of the aggregate capital committed by each member) to COPJV. Effective as of June 18, 2021, Credit Opportunities Partners, LLC, or COP, merged with and into COPJV, with COPJV surviving the merger, or the COPJV Merger. As of June 18, 2021, COPJV assumed all of COP’s obligations under its credit facilities, and COP’s wholly-owned special purpose financing subsidiaries became wholly-owned special purpose financing subsidiaries of COPJV, in each case, as a result of the consummation of the COPJV Merger. Effective June 6, 2024, the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, or, as amended, the COPJV Agreement, between the Company and SCRS was amended, increasing the capital commitments of each member. The COPJV Agreement requires the Company and SCRS to provide capital to COPJV of up to $2,640 in the aggregate where the Company and SCRS would provide 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of the committed capital. Pursuant to the terms of the COPJV Agreement, the Company and SCRS each have 50% voting control of COPJV and are required to agree on all investment decisions as well as certain other significant actions for COPJV. COPJV invests its capital in a range of investments, including senior secured loans (both first lien and second lien) to middle market companies, broadly syndicated loans, equity, warrants and other investments. As administrative agent of COPJV, the Company performs certain day-to-day management responsibilities on behalf of COPJV and is entitled to a fee of 0.25% of COPJV’s assets under administration, calculated and payable quarterly in arrears. As of June 30, 2024, the Company and SCRS have funded approximately $1,799.8 to COPJV, of which $1,574.8 was from the Company.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts and Cross Currency Swaps:
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts and cross currency swaps from time to time to facilitate settlement of purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies and to economically hedge the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. These contracts are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the contract forward exchange rate and the forward market exchange rate on the last day of the period presented as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses are recognized when forward contracts are settled. Risks arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with well-known counterparties.
Cross currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. These swaps are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the present value of cash flows of each leg of the swaps as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gain or loss is recognized when periodic payments are received or paid and the swaps are terminated. The entire notional value of a cross currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations. The Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with well-known counterparties. The Company utilizes cross currency swaps from time to time in order to hedge a portion of its investments in foreign currency.
The average notional balance for foreign currency forward contracts during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $188.0 and $223.2, respectively.
Interest Rate Swaps
In connection with the Company’s issuance of $600 aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% notes due 2029, or the 6.875% Notes, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for a total notional amount of $600 that mature on August 15, 2029 to reduce the exposure to changes in fair value associated with the 6.875% Notes. Under the first interest rate swap agreement, entered into on June 13, 2024, the Company receives a fixed interest rate of 6.875% and pays a floating interest rate of one-month SOFR plus 2.754% on a notional amount of $200. Under the second interest rate swap agreement, entered into on June 27, 2024, the Company receives a fixed interest rate of 6.875% and pays a floating interest rate of one-month SOFR plus 2.788% on a notional amount of $400. The Company designated these interest rate swaps and the 6.875% Notes as a qualifying fair value hedge accounting relationship. See Note 9 for more information on the 6.875% Notes.
As of June 30, 2024, the counterparty to the Company’s interest rate swap agreements was ING Capital Markets LLC.
As a result of the Company’s designation of the interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in a qualifying fair value hedge accounting relationship, the Company is required to fair value the hedging instruments and the related hedged items, with the changes

Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under existing accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. This accounting guidance emphasizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy as defined by current accounting guidance:
Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s investments were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | |
| | June 30, 2024 | | |
Valuation Inputs | | (Unaudited) | | December 31, 2023 |
| | | | |
Level 1—Price quotations in active markets | | $ | 1 | | | $ | 1 | |
Level 2—Significant other observable inputs | | 137 | | | 178 | |
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs | | 12,561 | | | 13,073 | |
Investments measured at net asset value(1) | | 1,388 | | | 1,397 | |
| | $ | 14,087 | | | $ | 14,649 | |
____________ (1)Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets.
In addition, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps, as described in Note 7, which were categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The Company’s board of directors is responsible for overseeing the valuation of the Company’s portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s valuation policy. The Company’s board of directors has designated the Adviser with day-to-day responsibility for implementing the portfolio valuation process set forth in the Adviser’s valuation policy.

Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The Company’s investments consist primarily of debt investments that were acquired directly from the issuer. Debt investments, for which broker quotes are not available, are valued by independent valuation firms, which determine the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, expected cash flows, call features, anticipated repayments and other relevant terms of the investments. Except as described below, all of the Company’s equity/other investments are also valued by independent valuation firms, which determine the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. An investment that is newly issued and purchased near the date of the financial statements is valued at cost if the Adviser determines that the cost of such investment is the best indication of its fair value. Such investments described above are typically classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. Investments that are traded on an active public market are valued at their closing price as of the date of the financial statements and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. Except as described above, the Adviser typically values the Company's other investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which are provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services and are typically classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
The Adviser periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices it receives from the third-party pricing services and/or dealers and independent valuation firms as applicable, against the actual prices at which the Company purchases and sells its investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of the Company’s management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Adviser believes that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. The Adviser reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Adviser’s valuation policy.

Note 9. Financing Arrangements (continued)
The 6.875% Notes will mature on August 15, 2029 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at the Company’s option at any time or from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture. The 6.875% Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.875% per year payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing on February 15, 2025. The 6.875% Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company that rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 6.875% Notes, rank pari passu with all existing and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company, rank effectively junior to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness (including unsecured indebtedness that the Company later secures) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and rank structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.
The Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants requiring the Company to comply with the asset coverage requirements of Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a)(1) and (2) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, whether or not it is subject to those requirements, and to provide financial information to the holders of the 6.875% Notes and the Trustee if the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture.
In addition, on the occurrence of a “change of control repurchase event,” as defined in the Indenture, the Company will generally be required to make an offer to purchase the outstanding 6.875% Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such 6.875% Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date.
In connection with the issuance of the 6.875% Notes, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements that mature on August 15, 2029. See Note 7 for further information on the interest rate swap agreements.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification provisions. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown; however, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. The Adviser has reviewed the Company’s existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to the Company to be remote.
The Company is not currently subject to any material legal proceedings and, to the Company’s knowledge, no material legal proceedings are threatened against the Company. From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of the Company’s rights under contracts with its portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that any such proceedings will have a material effect upon its financial condition or results of operations.
Unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company has sufficient liquidity to fund these commitments. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s unfunded commitments consisted of the following:

While the Company does not expect to fund all of its unfunded commitments, there can be no assurance that it will not be required to do so.
In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into guarantees on behalf of portfolio companies. Under such arrangements, the Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. The Company has no such guarantees outstanding at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

(4)Represents the incremental impact of the Company’s share repurchase program by buying shares in the open market at a price lower than net asset value per share.
(5)The total return based on net asset value for each period presented was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of the end of the applicable period, adding the cash distributions per share that were declared during the period and dividing the total by the net asset value per share at the beginning of the period. Total return based on net asset value does not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock. The historical calculation of total return based on net asset value in the table should not be considered a representation of the Company’s future total return based on net asset value, which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a number of factors, including the Company’s ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet its investment criteria, the interest rates payable on the debt securities the Company acquires, the level of the Company’s expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which the Company encounters competition in its markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods. The total return calculations set forth above represent the total return on the Company’s investment portfolio during the applicable period and do not represent an actual return to stockholders.

Overview
We were incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007 and formally commenced investment operations on January 2, 2009. We are an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.
We are externally managed by the Adviser pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent.
Our investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We seek to meet our investment objectives by:
•utilizing the experience and expertise of the management team of the Adviser;
•employing a defensive investment approach focused on long-term credit performance and principal protection;
•focusing primarily on debt investments in a broad array of private U.S. companies, including middle-market companies, which we define as companies with annual EBITDA of $50 million to $150 million at the time of investment;
•investing primarily in established, stable enterprises with positive cash flows; and
•maintaining rigorous portfolio monitoring in an attempt to anticipate and pre-empt negative credit events within our portfolio, such as an event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company.
We pursue our investment objective by investing primarily in the debt of middle market U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the network of the Adviser and its affiliates. We define direct originations as any investment where the Company's investment adviser, sub-adviser or their affiliates had negotiated the terms of the transaction beyond just the price, which, for example, may include negotiating financial covenants, maturity dates or interest rate terms. These directly originated transactions include participation in other originated transactions where there may be third parties involved, or a bank acting as an intermediary, for a closely held club, or similar transactions.
Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private middle market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans and certain asset-based financing loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the “over-the-counter” market or directly from our target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. In connection with our debt investments, we may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. We may also purchase or otherwise acquire interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, including through a co-investment with a financial sponsor or possibly the restructuring of an investment. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, structured products, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. The Adviser will seek to tailor our investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our exposure to less senior portions of the capital structures of our portfolio companies or otherwise make opportunistic investments, such as where the market price of loans, bonds or other securities reflects a lower value than deemed warranted by the Adviser’s fundamental analysis. Such investment opportunities may occur due to general dislocations in the markets, a misunderstanding by the
market of a particular company or an industry being out of favor with the broader investment community and may include event driven investments, anchor orders and structured products.
The senior secured loans, second lien secured loans and senior secured bonds in which we invest generally have stated terms of three to seven years and subordinated debt investments that we make generally have stated terms of up to ten years, but the expected average life of such securities is generally three to four years. However, we may invest in loans and securities with any maturity or duration. Our debt investments may be rated by a NRSRO and, in such case, generally will carry a rating below investment grade (rated lower than “Baa3” by Moody’s or lower than “BBB-” by S&P). We may invest without limit in debt or other securities of any rating, as well as debt or other securities that have not been rated by a NRSRO.
Revenues
The principal measure of our financial performance is net increase in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income, net realized gain or loss on investments, net realized gain or loss on foreign currency, net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments and net unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency. Net investment income is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating and other expenses. Net realized gain or loss on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost, including the respective realized gain or loss on foreign currency for those foreign denominated investment transactions. Net realized gain or loss on foreign currency is the portion of realized gain or loss attributable to foreign currency fluctuations. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio, including the respective unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency for those foreign denominated investments. Net unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency is the net change in the value of receivables or accruals due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
We principally generate revenues in the form of interest income on the debt investments we hold. In addition, we generate revenues in the form of non-recurring commitment, closing, origination, structuring or diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees, prepayment fees and performance-based fees. We may also generate revenues in the form of dividends and other distributions on the equity or other securities we hold.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of management and incentive fees and other expenses under the investment advisory agreement and the administration agreement, interest expense from financing arrangements and other indebtedness, and other expenses necessary for our operations. The management and incentive fees compensate the Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, executing, monitoring and servicing our investments.
The Adviser oversees our day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations, certain government and regulatory affairs activities, and other administrative services. The Adviser also performs, or oversees the performance of, our corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports for our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Adviser assists us in calculating our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others.
Pursuant to the administration agreement, we reimburse the Adviser for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations, including the Adviser’s allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of FS Investments and KKR Credit providing administrative services to us on behalf of the Adviser. We reimburse the Adviser no less than quarterly for all costs and expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the administration agreement. The Adviser allocates the cost of such services to us based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. Our board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to us and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among us and certain affiliates of the Adviser. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to us based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to us of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, our board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, our board of directors compares the total amount paid to the Adviser for such services as a percentage of our net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.
We bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions, including all other expenses incurred by the Adviser or us in connection with administering our business, including expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing administrative services for us and administrative personnel paid by the Adviser, to the extent they are not controlling persons of the Adviser or any of its affiliates, subject to the limitations included in the investment advisory agreement and the administration agreement.
In addition, we have contracted with State Street Bank and Trust Company to provide various accounting and administrative services, including, but not limited to, preparing preliminary financial information for review by the Adviser, preparing and monitoring expense budgets, maintaining accounting and corporate books and records, processing trade information provided by us and performing testing with respect to RIC compliance.

COPJV’s second amended and restated limited liability company agreement, or, as amended, the COPJV Agreement, requires the Company and SCRS to provide capital to COPJV of up to $2,640 in the aggregate where the Company and SCRS would provide 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of the committed capital. Pursuant to the terms of the COPJV Agreement, the Company and SCRS each have 50% voting control of COPJV and are required to agree on all investment decisions as well as certain other significant actions for COPJV.

In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, the Adviser uses an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. The Adviser uses an investment rating scale of 1 to 4. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:
| | | | | | | | |
Investment Rating | | Summary Description |
1 | | Performing investment—generally executing in accordance with plan and there are no concerns about the portfolio company’s performance or ability to meet covenant requirements. |
| | |
2 | | Performing investment—no concern about repayment of both interest and our cost basis but company’s recent performance or trends in the industry require closer monitoring. |
| | |
3 | | Underperforming investment—some loss of interest or dividend possible, but still expecting a positive return on investment. |
| | |
4 | | Underperforming investment—concerns about the recoverability of principal or interest. |
The following table shows the distribution of our investments on the 1 to 4 investment rating scale at fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |
Investment Rating | | Fair Value | | Percentage of Portfolio | | Fair Value | | Percentage of Portfolio |
1 | | $ | 9,989 | | | 71 | % | | $ | 10,429 | | | 71 | % |
2 | | 3,346 | | | 23 | % | | 3,165 | | | 22 | % |
3 | | 370 | | | 3 | % | | 550 | | | 4 | % |
4 | | 382 | | | 3 | % | | 505 | | | 3 | % |
Total | | $ | 14,087 | | | 100 | % | | $ | 14,649 | | | 100 | % |
The amount of the portfolio in each grading category may vary substantially from period to period resulting primarily from changes in the composition of the portfolio as a result of new investment, repayment and exit activities. In addition, changes in the grade of investments may be made to reflect our expectation of performance and changes in investment values.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023
Revenues
Our investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |

Fee income | | 18 | | | 4.1 | % | | 6 | | | 1.3 | % | | 35 | | | 4.0 | % | | 11 | | | 1.2 | % |
Dividend income | | 68 | | | 15.5 | % | | 80 | | | 17.3 | % | | 135 | | | 15.5 | % | | 162 | | | 17.6 | % |

___________
(1)Such revenues represent $383 and $392 of cash income earned as well as $56 and $70 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and represent $771 and $791 of cash income earned as well as $102 and $127 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Cash flows related to such non-cash revenues may not occur for a number of reporting periods or years after such revenues are recognized.
The level of interest income we receive is generally related to the balance of income-producing investments, multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. Fee income is transaction based, and typically consists of amendment and consent fees, prepayment fees, structuring fees and other non-recurring fees. As such, fee income is generally dependent on new direct origination investments and the occurrence of events at existing portfolio companies resulting in such fees.
The decrease in interest and PIK income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily attributable to the repayment of higher yielding positions and lost interest income on certain assets that were placed on non-accrual status during the year ended December 31, 2023.
The increase in fee income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily attributable to increased origination activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
The decrease in dividend income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily attributable to lower dividends on certain asset based finance investments during the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Expenses
Our operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |

Ratio of net operating expenses, excluding certain expenses, to average net assets | | 0.93 | % | | 0.96 | % | | 1.84 | % | | 1.91 | % |
__________
(1)Ratio data may be rounded in order to recompute the ending ratio of net operating expenses to average net assets or net operating expenses, excluding certain expenses, to average net assets.
The decrease in expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 can primarily be attributed to a decrease in subordinated income incentive fees and management fees as a result of the lower asset base and lower investment income as discussed above.
Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in amounts outstanding under our financing arrangements and benchmark interest rates such as SOFR, among other factors.
Net Investment Income
Our net investment income totaled $215 ($0.77 per share) and $229 ($0.82 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our net investment income totaled $427 ($1.53 per share) and $458 ($1.63 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The decrease in net investment income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 can primarily be attributed to lower investment income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as discussed above.
Net Realized Gains or Losses
Our net realized gains (losses) on investments, foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

______________
(1)We sold investments and received principal repayments, respectively, of $11 and $1,325 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $631 and $214 during the three months ended June 30, 2023. We sold investments and received principal repayments, respectively, of $1,335 and $1,856 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $859 and $372 during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)
Our net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, foreign forward currency forward contracts and unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| | 2024 | | 2023 | | 2024 | | 2023 |
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments | | $ | (48) | | | $ | 127 | | | $ | 138 | | | $ | 158 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts | | (21) | | | 1 | | | (13) | | | (3) | |
| | | | | | | | |
Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency | | 4 | | | (4) | | | 17 | | | (7) | |
Total net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | | $ | (65) | | | $ | 124 | | | $ | 142 | | | $ | 148 | |
The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was driven primarily by depreciation on several specific assets in the portfolio along with the conversion of unrealized depreciation to realized losses during the quarter. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was driven primarily by depreciation on several specific assets in the portfolio, partially offset by appreciation on several assets in the portfolio.
Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $105 ($0.37 per share) compared to a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $142 ($0.51 per share) during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $278 ($0.99 per share) compared to a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $341 ($1.22 per share) during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
As of June 30, 2024, we had $433 in cash and foreign currency, which we or our wholly-owned financing subsidiaries held in custodial accounts, and $4,072 in borrowings available under our financing arrangements, subject to borrowing base and other limitations. As of June 30, 2024, we also held broadly syndicated investments and opportunistic investments that we believe could be sold to create additional liquidity. As of June 30, 2024, we had unfunded debt investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of $1,269.5, unfunded equity/other commitments of $481.4 and unfunded commitments of $735.2 of COPJV. We maintain sufficient cash on hand, available borrowings and liquid securities to fund such unfunded commitments should the need arise.
We currently generate cash primarily from cash flows from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments, as well as principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. To seek to enhance our returns, we also employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of the Adviser, but in no event will leverage employed exceed the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. Prior to June 14, 2019, in accordance with the 1940 Act, we were allowed to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, calculated pursuant to the 1940 Act, was at least 200% after such borrowing. Effective June 15, 2019, our asset coverage requirement applicable to senior securities was reduced from 200% to 150%. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate amount outstanding of the senior securities issued by us was $8.0 billion. As of June 30, 2024, our asset coverage was 184%. See “—Financing Arrangements.”
Prior to investing in securities of portfolio companies, we invest the cash received from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments and principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments primarily in cash, cash equivalents, including money market funds, U.S. government securities, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment, consistent with our BDC election and our election to be taxed as a RIC.

See Note 9 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding our financing arrangements.
RIC Status and Distributions
We have elected to be subject to tax as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify for RIC tax treatment, we must, among other things, make distributions of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to any deduction for distributions paid, each tax year. As long as the distributions are declared by the later of the fifteenth day of the tenth month following the close of a tax year or the due date of the tax return for such tax year, including extensions, distributions paid up to twelve months after the current tax year can be carried back to the prior tax year for determining
the distributions paid in such tax year. We intend to make sufficient distributions to our stockholders to qualify for and maintain our RIC tax status each tax year. We are also subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless we make distributions in a timely manner to our stockholders generally of an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income, which is the excess of capital gains in excess of capital losses, or “capital gain net income” (adjusted for certain ordinary losses), for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year and (3) any net ordinary income and capital gain net income for the preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax. Any distribution declared by us during October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to stockholders of record on a specified date in such a month and actually paid during January of the following calendar year, will be treated as if it had been paid by us, as well as received by our stockholders, on December 31 of the calendar year in which the distribution was declared. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit us to pay any cash distributions. If we issue senior securities, we will be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes us to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings.
Subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors, we intend to authorize, declare and pay regular cash distributions on a quarterly basis. We will calculate each stockholder’s specific distribution amount for the period using record and declaration dates and each stockholder’s distributions will begin to accrue on the date that shares of our common stock are issued to such stockholder. From time to time, we may also pay special interim distributions in the form of cash or shares of our common stock at the discretion of our board of directors.
During certain periods, our distributions may exceed our earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions we make may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholder’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from our investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions will be mailed to our stockholders. No portion of the distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023 represented a return of capital.
We intend to continue to make our regular distributions in the form of cash, out of assets legally available for distribution, except for those stockholders who receive their distributions in the form of shares of our common stock under the DRP. Any distributions reinvested under the plan will nevertheless remain taxable to a U.S. stockholder.
The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that we have declared on our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming the estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which we use management judgment and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our
financial statements. We describe our most significant accounting policies in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our consolidated financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments required by our policies on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changing conditions. We have identified one of our accounting policies, valuation of portfolio investments, specifically the valuation of Level 3 investments, as critical because it involves significant judgments and assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters, and the use of reasonably different estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our reported results of operations or financial condition. As we execute our operating plans, we will describe additional critical accounting policies in the notes to our future financial statements in addition to those discussed below.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
Our board of directors is responsible for overseeing the valuation of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s valuation policy. As permitted by Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, our board of directors has designated the Adviser as our valuation designee with day-to-day responsibility for implementing the portfolio valuation process set forth in the Adviser’s valuation policy.
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the FASB clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical securities; Level 2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities where there is little or no activity in the market; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Adviser determines the fair value of our investment portfolio each quarter. Securities that are publicly-traded with readily available market prices will be valued at the reported closing price on the valuation date. Securities that are not publicly-traded with readily available market prices will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser. In connection with that determination, the Adviser will prepare portfolio company valuations which are based on relevant inputs, including, but not limited to, indicative dealer quotes, values of like securities, recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts, and valuations prepared by independent third-party pricing and valuation services.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, we undertake a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
•our quarterly fair valuation process begins by the Adviser facilitating the delivery of updated quarterly financial and other information relating to each investment to an independent third-party pricing or valuation service;
•the independent third-party pricing or valuation service then reviews and analyzes the information, along with relevant market and economic data, and determines proposed valuations for each portfolio company or investment according to the valuation methodologies in the Adviser’s valuation policy and communicates the information to the Adviser in the form of a valuation range for Level 3 assets;
•the Adviser then reviews the preliminary valuation information for each portfolio company or investment and provides feedback about the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the valuation-related inputs considered by the independent third-party pricing or valuation service and any suggested revisions thereto prior to the independent third-party pricing or valuation service finalizing its valuation range;
•the Adviser then provides the valuation committee with its valuation determinations and valuation-related information for each portfolio company or investment, along with any applicable supporting materials; and other information that is relevant to the fair valuation process as required by the Adviser’s board reporting obligations;
•the valuation committee meets with the Adviser to receive the relevant quarterly reporting from the Adviser and to discuss any questions from the valuation committee in connection with the valuation committee's role in overseeing the fair valuation process; and
•following the completion of its fair value oversight activities, the valuation committee (with the assistance of the Adviser) provides our board of directors with a report regarding the quarterly valuation process.
In circumstances where the Adviser deems appropriate, the Adviser’s internal valuation team values certain investments. When performing the internal valuations, the Adviser utilizes similar valuation techniques as an independent third-party pricing service would use. Such valuations are approved by an internal valuation committee of the Adviser, as well as the valuation committee of the board of directors, as described above.
Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations and any change in such valuations on our consolidated financial statements. In making its determination of fair value, the Adviser may use any independent third-party pricing or valuation services for which it has performed the appropriate level of due diligence. However, the Adviser is not required to determine fair value in accordance with the valuation provided by any single source, and may use any relevant data, including information sourced by the Adviser or provided by any independent third-party valuation or pricing service that the Adviser deems to be reliable in determining fair value under the circumstances. Below is a description of factors that the Adviser and any independent third-party valuation services may consider when determining the fair value of our investments.
The valuation methods utilized for each portfolio company may vary depending on industry and company-specific considerations. Typically, the first step is to make an assessment as to the enterprise value of the portfolio company's business in order to establish whether the portfolio company's enterprise value is greater than the amount of its debt as of the valuation date. This analysis helps to determine a risk profile for the applicable portfolio company and its related investments, and the appropriate valuation methodology to utilize as part of the security valuation analysis. The enterprise valuation may be determined using a market or income approach.
Valuation of fixed income investments, such as loans and debt securities, depends upon a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates for like securities, expected volatility in future interest rates, call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt. For investments without readily available market prices, the Adviser may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Various methods may be used to determine the appropriate discount rate in a discounted cash flow model.
Other factors that may be considered include the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the borrower in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing the debt investments.
For convertible debt securities, fair value generally approximates the fair value of the debt plus the fair value of an option to purchase the underlying security (i.e., the security into which the debt may convert) at the conversion price. To value such an option, a standard option pricing model may be used.
Our equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. Generally, the value of our equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available is based upon the most recent closing public market price.
When we receive warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, the cost basis in the investment will be allocated between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. The Adviser subsequently values these warrants or other equity securities received at their fair value.
See Note 8 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding the fair value of our financial instruments.
Contractual Obligations
We have entered into agreements with the Adviser to provide us with investment advisory and administrative services. Payments for investment advisory services under the investment advisory agreement are equal to (a) an annual base management fee based on the average weekly value of our gross assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) and (b) an incentive fee based on our performance. The Adviser is reimbursed for administrative expenses incurred on our behalf. See Note 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for a discussion of these agreements and for the amount of fees and expenses accrued under these agreements during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2024, 68.8% of our portfolio investments (based on fair value) were debt investments paying variable interest rates and 7.8% were debt investments paying fixed interest rates while 15.5% were other income producing investments, 6.1% consisted of non-income producing investments, and the remaining 1.8% consisted of investments on non-accrual status. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to any variable rate investments we hold and to declines in the value of any fixed rate investments we hold. However, many of our variable rate investments provide for an interest rate floor, which may prevent our interest income from increasing until benchmark interest rates increase beyond a threshold amount. To the extent that a substantial portion of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest rates beyond this threshold would make it easier for us to meet or exceed the hurdle rate applicable to the subordinated incentive fee on income, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income and to the amount of incentive fees payable to the Adviser with respect to our increased pre-incentive fee net investment income.
Pursuant to the terms of the Ambler Credit Facility, CCT Tokyo Funding Credit Facility, Darby Creek Credit Facility, Meadowbrook Run Credit Facility, Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and the CLO-1 Notes, we borrow at a floating rate based on a benchmark interest rate. Under the indentures governing the 4.625% notes, the 1.650% notes, the 4.125% notes, the 4.250% notes, the 8.625% notes, the 3.400% notes, the 2.625% notes, the 3.250% notes, the 3.125% notes, the 7.875% notes and the 6.875% notes, we pay interest to the holders of such notes at a fixed rate. To the extent that any present or future credit facilities or other financing arrangements that we or any of our subsidiaries enter into are based on a floating interest rate, we will be subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In periods of rising interest rates when we or our subsidiaries have such debt outstanding, or financing arrangements in effect, our interest expense would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we hold fixed rate investments. To hedge the risks associated with a changing interest rate environment, the Company utilizes interest rate swap strategies. For more information on the Company’s swap strategies, please see Note 2 and Note 7.
The following table shows the effect over a twelve month period of changes in interest rates on our interest income, interest expense and net interest income, assuming no changes in the composition of our investment portfolio, including the accrual status of our investments, and our financing arrangements in effect as of June 30, 2024 (dollar amounts are presented in millions):

_______________
(1)Assumes no defaults or prepayments by portfolio companies over the next twelve months.
(2)Assumes current debt outstanding as of June 30, 2024, and no changes over the next twelve months. Includes the affect of interest rate swaps designed as hedging instruments.
We expect that our long-term investments will be financed primarily with equity and debt. If deemed prudent, we may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Foreign Currency Risk
From time to time, we may make investments that are denominated in a foreign currency that are subject to the effects of exchange rate movements between the foreign currency of each such investment and the U.S. dollar, which may affect future fair values and cash flows, as well as amounts translated into U.S. dollars for inclusion in our consolidated financial statements.
The table below presents the effect that a 10% immediate, unfavorable change in the foreign currency exchange rates (i.e. strengthening of the U.S. dollar) would have on the fair value of our investments denominated in foreign currencies as of June 30, 2024, by foreign currency, all other valuation assumptions remaining constant. In addition, the table below presents the par value of our investments denominated in foreign currencies and the notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts in local currency in place as of June 30, 2024 to hedge against foreign currency risks.

_______________
(1)Excludes effect, if any, of any foreign currency hedges.
As illustrated in the table above, we use derivative instruments from time to time, including foreign currency forward contracts and cross currency swaps, to manage the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, we have the ability to borrow in foreign currencies under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, which provides a natural hedge with regard to changes in exchange rates between the foreign currencies and U.S. dollar and reduces our exposure to foreign exchange rate differences. We are typically a net receiver of these foreign currencies as related for our international investment positions, and, as a result, our investments denominated in foreign currencies, to the extent not hedged, benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar.
As of June 30, 2024, the net contractual amount of our foreign currency forward contracts totaled $117.4, all of which related to hedging of our foreign currency denominated debt investments. As of June 30, 2024, we had outstanding borrowings denominated in foreign currencies of €472, CAD3 and £142 under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility.
In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Valuation of Portfolio Investments.”
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024.
Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that we would meet our disclosure obligations.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three month period ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us. From time to time, we may be party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. While the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors that appeared under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. There are no material changes from the risk factors included within our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Share Repurchase Program
In November 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program, which went into effect in September 2021, or the Share Repurchase Program. Under the Share Repurchase Program originally approved by the Company's board of directors, the Company was permitted to repurchase up to $100 in the aggregate of its outstanding common stock in the open market at prices below the then-current net asset value per share. On September 15, 2022, the program expired and was terminated pursuant to the terms of the program. On October 31, 2022, the board of directors approved a renewal of the Share Repurchase Program. The program provided for aggregate purchases of the Company’s common stock in amounts up to $54, which was the aggregate amount remaining of the $100 amount originally approved by the board of directors.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 1,665,317 shares of common stock pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program at an average price per share (inclusive of commissions paid) of $18.89 (totaling $32). The Share Repurchase Program has concluded since the aggregate repurchase amount under the program has been expended.
Affiliate Purchaser Programs
As previously disclosed, certain affiliates of the owners of the Adviser committed $100 to a $350 investment vehicle, or the Affiliated Purchaser, that may invest from time to time in shares of the Company. In September 2021, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or the September 2021 Affiliated Purchaser Program, to facilitate the purchase of shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The September 2021 Affiliated Purchaser Program provided for the purchase of up to $100 worth of shares of our common stock, subject to the limitations provided therein. The September 2021 Affiliated Purchaser Program has concluded since the aggregate repurchase amount under the plan has been expended.
In December 2021, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or the December 2021 Affiliated Purchaser Program, to facilitate the purchase of shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The December 2021 Affiliated Purchaser Program provided for the purchase of up to $70 worth of shares of our common stock, subject to the limitations provided therein. The December 2021 Affiliated Purchaser Program has concluded since the aggregate repurchase amount under the plan has been expended.
In September 2022, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or the September 2022 Affiliated Seller Program, to facilitate the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The September 2022 Affiliated Seller Program provided for the sale of up to 18.7 million shares of our common stock, subject to the limitations provided therein. The September 2022 Affiliated Seller Program has concluded since the aggregate sale amount under the plan has been expended.
In August 2023, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or the August 2023 Affiliated Seller Program, to facilitate the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The August 2023 Affiliated Seller Program provided for the sale of up to 16.4 million shares of our common stock, subject to the limitations provided therein. The August 2023 Affiliated Seller Program has concluded since the aggregate sale amount under the plan has been expended.
In March 2024, that investment vehicle entered into a written trading plan with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or the March 2024 Affiliated Seller Program, to facilitate the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The March 2024 Affiliated Seller Program provided for the sale of up to 3.8 million shares of our common stock, subject to the limitations provided therein. The March 2024 Affiliated Seller Program has concluded since the aggregate sale amount under the plan has been expended.

AMENDMENT NO. 4
THIS AMENDMENT NO. 4, dated as of June 26, 2024 (the “ Signing Date”) (this “Amendment”), to Credit Agreement (capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement (as defined below)) is among FS KKR CAPITAL CORP., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”) and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

If the basis of accrual of interest or fees expressed in this Agreement with respect to an Agreed Foreign Currency of any country that becomes a Participating Member State after the date on which such currency becomes an Agreed Foreign Currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest or fees in respect of the Euro, such convention or practice shall replace such expressed basis effective as of and from the date on which such state becomes a Participating Member State; provided that, with respect to any Borrowing denominated in such currency that is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect at the end of the Interest Period therefor.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any basket in this Agreement, in no event shall any Obligor be deemed to not be in compliance with any such basket solely as a result of a change in Exchange Rates.
SECTION 1.06. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized or acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.
SECTION 1.07. Outstanding Indebtedness. To the extent that any Indebtedness, that is otherwise permitted to be repaid pursuant to Section 6.12 is defeased on terms customary for senior unsecured notes issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act for a period not to exceed more than sixty (60) days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) and in accordance with the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness shall be deemed not to be outstanding for purposes of Section 6.01 and the definition of “Covered Debt Amount” to the extent of the amount of such defeasance.
SECTION 1.09. Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or an Agreed Foreign Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 2.12(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions
that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to any Borrower. The Administrative Agent may
select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to such Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Each such e-mail Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy or e-mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request, signed by the applicable Borrower. (2)Content of Borrowing Requests. Each request for a Borrowing (whether a written Borrowing Request or an e-mail request) shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(2)whether such Borrowing is to be made under the Dollar Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower or the Multicurrency Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower;
(3)the aggregate amount and Currency of such Borrowing;
(4)the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
(5)in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Term Benchmark Borrowing;

(4)Failure to Elect. If no election as to the Class of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be a Multicurrency Borrowing (or, to the extent such requested Borrowing exceeds the available Multicurrency Subcommitments of the applicable Borrower at such time, a Dollar Borrowing in
an amount equal to such excess to the extent there is availability under the Dollar Subcommitments of such Borrower). If no election as to the Currency of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars. If no election as to the Type of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Term Benchmark Borrowing having an Interest Period of one
month and if an Agreed Foreign Currency has been specified, the requested Borrowing shall be a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in such Agreed Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month; provided, however, if the specified Agreed Foreign Currency is Pounds Sterling, the requested Borrowing shall be an RFR Borrowing denominated in Pounds Sterling.

SECTION 2.04. Letters of Credit.
(1)General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Loans made to each Borrower provided for in Section 2.01, each Borrower may request, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period, (x) any Dollar Issuing Bank to issue, and such Dollar Issuing Bank shall issue, under Dollar Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars and (y) any Multicurrency Issuing Bank to issue, and such Multicurrency Issuing Bank shall issue under the Multicurrency Subcommitments, with respect to such Borrower, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in any Agreed Foreign Currency for such Borrower’s own account or the account of its designee (provided such Borrower and the other members of its Obligor Group shall remain primarily liable to the Lenders hereunder for payment and reimbursement of all amounts payable in respect of such Letter of Credit hereunder) in such form as is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its reasonable determination and for the benefit of such named beneficiary or beneficiaries as are specified by such Borrower. Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Multicurrency Subcommitments or Dollar Subcommitments, as applicable, of the applicable Borrower up to the aggregate amount then available to be drawn thereunder by such Borrower.
(2)Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by e-mail, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by such Issuing Bank of such Borrower) to any Issuing Bank of such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit on behalf of such Borrower, or identifying the Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (d) of this Section), the amount, Class and Currency of such Letter of Credit, stating that such Letter of Credit is to be issued under the Multicurrency Subcommitments, in the case of any Multicurrency Issuing Bank, or the Dollar Subcommitments, in the case of any Dollar Issuing Bank, with respect to such Borrower, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary
to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Class of Lenders following the issuance of any Letter of Credit. If
requested by such Issuing Bank of such Borrower, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit to be issued on the behalf of such Borrower. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the applicable Borrower to, or entered into by such Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
(3)Limitations on Amounts. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended by an Issuing Bank on behalf of a Borrower only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit such Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure at such time of the Issuing Banks (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section) shall not exceed $400,000,000 (or such greater amount as may be agreed between any Borrower and such Issuing Bank from time to time), (ii) the aggregate LC Exposure of such Issuing Bank (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section) shall not exceed such Issuing Bank’s LC Commitment, (iii) the aggregate LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower shall not exceed such Borrower’s Borrower LC Sublimit, (iv) the total Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposures with respect to such Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate Multicurrency Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower and the total Revolving Dollar Credit Exposures with respect to such Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate Dollar Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower, (v) the total Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower shall not exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect for such Borrower and (vi) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders denominated in a Foreign Currency shall not exceed 50% of the total Commitments hereunder. A Letter of Credit denominated in AUD or NZD shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended on behalf of a Borrower only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit such Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders denominated in AUD and NZD shall not exceed 20% of the total Commitments hereunder.
(4)Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date twelve months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve months after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit, so long as such renewal or extension occurs within six months of such then-current expiration date); provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods; provided further, that (x) in no event shall a Letter of Credit expire after the Commitment Termination Date unless the applicable Borrower (1) deposits, on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account Cash with respect to such Borrower, an amount equal
to 102% of the undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower that remain outstanding as of the close of business on the Commitment Termination Date and
(4)pays in full, on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, all commissions required to be paid with respect to any such Letter of Credit through the then-current expiration date of such
Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower and (y) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date after the Maturity Date.
(5)Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by the applicable Issuing Bank, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Bank or the Lenders, (i) in the case of a Multicurrency Issuing Bank, such Multicurrency Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Multicurrency Lender, and each Multicurrency Lender hereby acquires from such Multicurrency Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Multicurrency Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (ii) in the case of a Dollar Issuing Bank, such Dollar Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Dollar Lender, and each Dollar Lender hereby acquires from such Dollar Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Dollar Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of a Borrower or the occurrence and continuance of a Default with respect to such Borrower or termination (including in connection with a reallocation in accordance with Section 2.07(g)) of the applicable Class of Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower; provided that no Lender shall be required to purchase a participation in a Letter of Credit issued on behalf of a Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.04(e) if (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing by such Borrower at the time such Letter of Credit was issued on behalf of such Borrower and (y) the Required Lenders of the applicable Class shall have so notified such Issuing Bank in writing and shall not have subsequently determined that the circumstances giving rise to such conditions not being satisfied no longer exist.
In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, (x) each Multicurrency Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Multicurrency Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Multicurrency Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Multicurrency Issuing Bank in respect of Letters of Credit issued on behalf of a Borrower by such Multicurrency Issuing Bank and (y) each Dollar Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Dollar Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Dollar Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Dollar Issuing Bank in respect of Letters of Credit issued on behalf of a Borrower by such Dollar Issuing Bank, in each case, promptly upon the request of such Issuing Bank (which such request shall be made by such Issuing Bank in accordance with the notice requirements applicable to each Borrower with respect to a request for Loans in Section 2.05) at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by such Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.04(f), the Administrative Agent shall
distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement with respect to a Borrower shall not constitute a Loan to such Borrower and shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
(6)Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by it, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that such Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with
Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Term Benchmark Borrowing having an Interest Period of one month’s duration of either Class or an RFR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Term Benchmark Borrowing having an Interest Period of one month’s duration or RFR Borrowing.
If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each affected Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Multicurrency Percentage or Applicable Dollar Percentage, as applicable, thereof.
(7)Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements made with respect to Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Borrower’s obligations hereunder.
None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, or any of their respective Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by any Issuing Bank or any payment or
failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit
(including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by such Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank on behalf of such Borrower comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that:
a.each Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit;
b.each Issuing Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; and
c.this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by each Issuing Bank when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).
(8)Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telecopy or e-mail of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
(9)Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement with respect to a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Term Benchmark Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration made to such Borrower (or, if such LC Disbursement is denominated in Pounds Sterling, RFR Loans); provided that, if such Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement within two Business Days following the date when due pursuant to
paragraph (f) of this Section, then the provisions of Section 2.11(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this
Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
(10)Replacement of Issuing Banks. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Lenders of any such replacement of any Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, each Borrower shall pay all its respective unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of any Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(11)Cash Collateralization. If the applicable Borrower shall be required to provide cover for its LC Exposure of a Class pursuant to Section 2.08(a), Section 2.09(c) Section 2.09(d) or the last paragraph of Article VII, such Borrower shall immediately deposit into a segregated collateral account or accounts (herein, with respect to each Borrower, collectively, the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”; for the avoidance of doubt, each Borrower’s Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be segregated from each other Borrower’s Letter of Credit Collateral Account) in the name and under the dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, Cash denominated in the Currency of the Letter of Credit under which such LC Exposure arises in an amount equal to the amount required under Section 2.08(a), Section 2.09(c), Section 2.09(d) or the last paragraph of Article VII, as applicable. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral in the first instance for its LC Exposure under this Agreement and thereafter for the payment of the “Secured Obligations” of such Borrower under and as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party, and for these purposes such Borrower hereby grants a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Lenders of such Borrower in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account with respect to such Borrower and in any financial assets (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) or other property held therein. If the applicable Borrower is required to provide cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such cash collateral (to the extent not applied as set forth in this Section 2.04(k)) shall be returned to such Borrower promptly after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the applicable Borrower is required to provide cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.09(b)(ii), such cash collateral (to the extent not applied as set forth in this Section 2.04(k)) shall be returned to such the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would not exceed the aggregate
Commitments, no prepayment would be required under Section 2.09(b)(ii) and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
SECTION 2.05. Funding of Borrowings.
(1)Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.22. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the account(s) of such Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Borrowings made to such Borrower to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement with respect to such Borrower as provided in Section 2.04(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.
(2)Presumption by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in the corresponding Currency with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the NYFRB Rate or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Term Benchmark Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration made to such Borrower (or, if such LC Disbursement is denominated in Pounds Sterling, RFR Loans). If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder, and shall be without prejudice to any claim any Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 2.06. Interest Elections.
(1)Elections by the Applicable Borrower for Borrowings. Subject to
Section 2.03(d), the Loans constituting each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section; provided, however, that
(i) a Borrowing of a Class may only be continued or converted into a Borrowing of the same Class, (ii) a Borrowing denominated in one Currency may not be continued as, or converted into,
a Borrowing in a different Currency, (iii) no Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency may be continued if, after giving effect thereto, (x) the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposures with respect to the applicable Borrower would exceed the aggregate Multicurrency
Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower or (y) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders denominated in a Foreign Currency would exceed 50% of the total Commitments hereunder, (iv) no Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in AUD or NZD may be continued if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders denominated in AUD and NZD would exceed 20% of the total Commitments hereunder and (v) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency may not be converted into a Borrowing of a different Type. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders of the respective Class holding the Loans constituting such Borrowing, and the Loans constituting each such portion shall thereafter be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.
(2)Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by delivery of a signed Interest Election Request or by e-mail by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such e-mail Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy or e-mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the applicable Borrower.
(3)Content of Interest Election Requests. Each Interest Election Request (whether a written Interest Election Request or an e-mail request) shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(1)the name of the applicable Borrower;
(2)the Borrowing (including the Class) to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iv) and (v) of this paragraph shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
(3)the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(4)in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Term Benchmark Borrowing; and
(5)if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d).
(4)Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
(5)Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, (i) if such Borrowing is denominated in Dollars, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Term Benchmark Borrowing of the same Class having an Interest Period of one month’s duration, and (ii) if such Borrowing is denominated in a Foreign Currency, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to a Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies such Borrower, then, so long as such Event of Default is continuing with respect to such Borrower no outstanding Term Benchmark Borrowing made to such Borrower may have an Interest Period of more than one month’s duration.
SECTION 2.07. Termination, Reduction, Increase or Reallocation of the Commitments and the Subcommitments.
(1)Scheduled Termination. Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Commitments of each Class shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date.
(2)Voluntary Termination or Reduction. In addition to the right to reallocate pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section, any Borrower may at any time without premium or penalty terminate, or from time to time reduce, its Subcommitments ratably among each Class; provided that (i) each reduction of any Subcommitments pursuant to this sentence shall be in an amount that is $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in each case, if less, the entire remaining amount of the Subcommitments of any Class with respect to such Borrower) and (ii) such Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Subcommitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans of any Class made to such Borrower in accordance with Section 2.09, the total Revolving Credit Exposures of such Class with respect to such Borrower would exceed the total Subcommitments of such Class with respect to such Borrower.
(3)Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce its Subcommitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by a Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that any such notice of termination or reduction of the Subcommitments of
a Class may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other events (including the reallocation of such Subcommitments pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section),
in which case such notice may be revoked by such Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
(4)Effect of Termination or Reduction. Each termination or reduction of Subcommitments of a Class with respect to a Borrower made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall (i) be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Subcommitments of such Class with respect to such Borrower and (ii) result in a permanent termination of Commitments in an amount equal to the Subcommitments so terminated or reduced. Each Lender authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to, concurrently with and immediately after the effectiveness of any termination or reduction of Subcommitments pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, amend Schedule I to reflect the aggregate amount of each Lender’s aggregate Commitments and such Lender’s Subcommitments with respect to each Borrower.
(5)Increase of the Commitments.
(1)Requests for Increase. Each Borrower shall have the right, at any time after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date but prior to the Commitment Termination Date, to propose that the Commitments of a Class hereunder be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”) by notice to the Administrative Agent, specifying each existing Lender (each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or each additional lender (each an “Assuming Lender”) that shall have agreed to an additional Commitment and the date on which such increase is to be effective (the “Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at least three Business Days (or such lesser period as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree) after delivery of such notice and at least

Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 2.04 through 2.08 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement such Borrower is party to, in each such case, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Commitment Increase Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date); and
(6)no Non-Extending Lender may participate in any Commitment Increase unless, in connection therewith, it shall have agreed to be become an “Extending Lender” hereunder.

On the Commitment Increase Date for any Commitment Increase, (A) each Assuming Lender, if any, shall become a Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase Date with the Commitment in the amount set forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.07(e)(ii)(y), (B) the Commitment of the respective Class of each Increasing Lender part of such Commitment Increase, if any, shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date to the amount set forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.07(e)(ii)(y), (C) the Borrower Sublimit with respect to the Borrower requesting such Commitment Increase shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date in an amount equal to such total Commitment Increase, and
(D) each Lender’s Subcommitments with respect to each Borrower shall be reallocated as of such Commitment Increase Date in the manner set forth in clause (iv) below; provided that:
(24)the Administrative Agent shall have received on such Commitment Increase Date a certificate signed by (1) a duly authorized officer of such Borrower stating that each of the applicable conditions to such Commitment Increase set forth in the foregoing paragraph (i) has been satisfied with respect to such Borrower and (2) a duly authorized officer of each other Borrower stating that the condition set forth in the foregoing subparagraph (i)(D) has been satisfied with respect to such other Borrower; and
(25)each Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent on such Commitment Increase Date, an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such Lender shall, effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, undertake a Commitment or an increase of Commitment in each case of the respective Class, duly executed by such Assuming Lender or such Increasing Lender, as applicable, and the Borrowers, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent.
(3)Recordation into Register. Upon its receipt of (1) an agreement referred to in clause (ii)(y) above executed by each Assuming Lender and each Increasing Lender part of such Commitment Increase, as applicable, together with the certificate referred to
in clause (ii)(x) above and (2) an amended Schedule I pursuant to clause (iv) below, the Administrative Agent shall, (x) if such agreement referred to in clause (ii)(y) has been
completed, accept such agreement, (y) record the information contained in the amended Schedule I in the Register and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers.
(4)Adjustment of Subcommitments upon Effectiveness of Increase. On the Commitment Increase Date for any Commitment Increase, the Subcommitments of each Lender (including each Assuming Lender and Increasing Lender, as applicable) shall be reallocated and adjusted among each of the Borrowers such that each Lender’s Subcommitment with respect to each Borrower is equal to such Lender’s pro rata share of the total Commitments as in effect immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender’s consent shall be required in connection with the reallocation of Subcommitments pursuant to this clause (iv) and each Lender authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to, concurrently with and immediately after the effectiveness of any such reallocation, amend Schedule I to reflect the aggregate amount of each Lender’s (including Increasing Lenders and Assuming Lenders part of any Commitment Increase and giving pro forma effect to such Commitment Increase and the reallocations made pursuant to this clause (iv)) aggregate Commitments and such Lender’s Subcommitments with respect to each Borrower. Each reference to Schedule I in this Agreement shall be to Schedule I as amended from time to time.
(26)Adjustments of Borrowings upon Effectiveness of Subcommitment Increase or Reallocations. On each date the Subcommitments are increased or reallocated pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, immediately after giving effect to such increase or reallocation, each Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding Loans made to such Borrower (if any) of the affected Class in full, (B) simultaneously borrow new Loans of such Class hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment (in the case of Term Benchmark Loans, (1) to any Borrower whose aggregate Subcommitments are increasing at such time, with Adjusted Term SOFR Rates, Adjusted Term CORRA Rates, Adjusted EURIBOR Rates or the applicable Local Rates, as applicable, equal to the outstanding Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA Rate, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate or the applicable Local Rate, as applicable, and with Interest Period(s) ending on the date(s) of any then outstanding Interest Period(s) and (2) to any Borrower whose aggregate Subcommitments are not changing at such time, with Adjusted Term SOFR Rates, Adjusted Term CORRA Rates, Adjusted EURIBOR Rates or the applicable Local Rates, as applicable, having Interest Periods (the duration of which may be less than one month) that are the same as the Adjusted Term SOFR Rates, Adjusted Term CORRA Rates, Adjusted EURIBOR Rates or the applicable Local Rates, as applicable, and Interest Periods applicable to outstanding Loans made to such Borrower at such time); provided that, with respect to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the prepayment to, and borrowing from, any existing Lender by such Borrower shall be effected by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender by such Borrower will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender by such Borrower and (y) the existing Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans of such Class made to suc
h Borrower are held ratably by the Lenders of such Class in accordance with their respective Subcommitments of such Class with respect to such Borrower (and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (C) pay to the Lenders of such Class with respect to such Borrower the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.15 as a result of any such prepayment (it being
understood that any payments required pursuant to Section 2.15 by any Borrower that is not increasing the aggregate amount of its Subcommitments shall be payable by the Borrowers increasing the aggregate amount of their respective Subcommitments (which amount shall be payable ratably among the increasing Borrowers based on the amount of increased Subcommitments received by each such Borrower as a result of such Commitment Increase)). Concurrently therewith, immediately after giving effect to the reallocations pursuant to paragraph
(e) of this Section or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, the Lenders of such Class shall be deemed to have adjusted their participation interests in any outstanding Letters of Credit of such Class issued on behalf of each Borrower so that such interests are held ratably in accordance with their Subcommitments of such Class with respect to such Borrower as so increased.
(27)Voluntary Reallocation of Subcommitments.
(1)Voluntary Reallocation. The Borrowers may at any time without premium or penalty, or from time to time, elect to reallocate all or any portion of the Subcommitments from one or more of the Borrowers to one or more of the other Borrowers, in each case ratably among the applicable Lenders (each such proposed reallocation being a “Voluntary Reallocation”): (A) at the option of any two or more Borrowers and/or (B) in connection with the designation of a “Borrower” hereunder pursuant to Section 9.19; provided that, (v) since the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, there has not been any event, development or circumstance that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Increasing Borrower, (w) as of the date of such election, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any Borrower (other than any Reducing Borrower (as defined below) part of such Voluntary Reallocation that is reducing its Subcommitments; provided that (1) such Reducing Borrower does not have any outstanding Designated Indebtedness, or (2) if such Reducing Borrower has outstanding Designated Indebtedness, its Subcommitments are being reduced in full), (x) each Reducing Borrower and each Increasing Borrower part of such Voluntary Reallocation, as applicable shall have taken all necessary corporate action, (y) no Reducing Borrower shall reduce the Subcommitments of such Reducing Borrower if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Loans of any Class made by such Reducing Borrower, (i) the total Revolving Credit Exposures of such Class with respect to such Reducing Borrower would exceed the total Subcommitments of such Class with respect to such Reducing Borrower or (ii) the LC Exposure with respect to any Borrower would exceed such Borrower’s Borrower LC Sublimit and (z) unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, the Borrowers may make no more than four (4) reallocations in the aggregate pursuant to paragraph (g)(i)(A), in any rolling twelve-month period (for the avoidance of doubt, any one or more transactions described in this clause
(28)occurring on the same date shall be deemed to be a single reallocation).
(2)Notice of Voluntary Reallocation. The Reallocating Borrowers (as defined below) shall jointly notify the Administrative Agent of any election to reallocate the Subcommitments with respect to such Borrowers under paragraph (g)(i) of this Section at least ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser period as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably agree) prior to the effective date of such reallocation, specifying (A) each Borrower that shall have agreed to reduce its Subcommitments (each a “Reducing
Borrower”), (B) each Borrower that shall have agreed to increase its Subcommitments (each an “Increasing Borrower” and together with the Reducing Borrowers, the “Reallocating Borrowers”), (C) the amounts of the reduction being made by each Reducing Borrower, (D) the amounts of the increase being made by each Increasing Borrower and (E) the date on which such reallocation is to be effective (the “Reallocation Date”). Promptly following receipt of any election, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Reallocating Borrowers pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of Voluntary Reallocation may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other events, in which case such notice may be revoked by any Reallocating Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
(3)Effectiveness of Voluntary Reallocation. On the Reallocation Date for any Voluntary Reallocation and in each case in the amounts set forth in the notice referred to in paragraph (g)(ii) of this Section, (A) the Subcommitments, Loans and LC Exposure of the respective Class with respect to each Reducing Borrower part of such Voluntary Reallocation shall be reduced ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective aggregate Commitments of such Class, (B) the Borrower Sublimit with respect to each Reducing Borrower part of such Voluntary Reallocation shall be reduced as of such Reallocation Date, (C) the Subcommitments, Loans and LC Exposure of the respective Class with respect to each Increasing Borrower part of the Voluntary Reallocation shall be increased ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective aggregate Commitments of such Class and (D) the Borrower Sublimit with respect to each Increasing Borrower part of such Voluntary Reallocation shall be increased as of such Reallocation Date. Each Lender authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to, concurrently with and immediately after the effectiveness of any Voluntary Reallocation, amend Schedule I to reflect the aggregate amount of each Lender’s aggregate Commitments and such Lender’s Subcommitments with respect to each Borrower.
(29)Reallocation of Subcommitments Upon Merger of Borrowers. In connection with and concurrently with the effectiveness of a Borrower Merger, all of the Subcommitments, Loans and LC Exposures (if any) of the Non-Surviving Obligors will be reallocated to the Surviving Borrower, in each case ratably among the applicable Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Surviving Borrower shall immediately, as of the date of consummation of such merger or consolidation, receive credit in its Collateral Pool and its Borrowing Base for all Portfolio Investments of each Non-Surviving Obligor that were included in each Non-Surviving Obligor’s Collateral Pool and Borrowing Base, respectively, immediately prior to such Borrower Merger to the extent such Portfolio Investments are included in the Collateral Pool of the Surviving Borrower upon the consummation of such Borrower Merger and the Surviving Borrower will assume all of the Non-Surviving Borrower’s obligations hereunder as provided herein. If applicable, as of the date of the consummation of such Borrower Merger, each Issuing Bank (if any) of each Non-Surviving Borrower shall immediately become one of the Issuing Banks for the Surviving Borrower and each Issuing Bank authorizes, and instructs
the Administrative Agent to amend Schedule I accordingly. Each Lender authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to, concurrently with and immediately after the effectiveness of any
Borrower Merger, amend Schedule I to reflect the aggregate amount of each Lender’s aggregate Commitments and such Lender’s Subcommitments with respect to each Borrower.
(30)Mandatory Termination of Subcommitments of Non-Extending Lenders. Unless previously terminated, the Subcommitments of each 2020 Non-Extending Lender shall terminate on November 7, 2023 and the Subcommitments of each 2023 Non-Extending Lender shall terminate on May 17, 2026. In connection with the foregoing, each Lender (other than any 2020 Non-Extending Lender and, with respect to any period on or after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date and prior to May 17, 2026, any 2023 Non-Extending Lender), hereby agrees that it shall not be entitled to any pro-rata reduction in its Subcommitments of the same Class notwithstanding Section 2.07(d) or 2.17(c), or any other provision hereof to the contrary.
(31)Replacement of Non-Extending Lenders. The Borrowers shall have the right, in their sole discretion and at their sole cost and expense, to replace any Non-Extending Lender in the manner set forth in Section 2.19(b).
SECTION 2.08. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.
(1)Repayment. Each Borrower (severally and not jointly, and solely with respect to itself) hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders of each Class:
(1)to the Administrative Agent for account of the applicable Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Loans of each Class of its Loans and all other amounts due and owing by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group on the Maturity Date;
(2)to the applicable Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan of such Class made by such Swingline Lender to such Borrower and denominated in Dollars, on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made to such Borrower; provided that on each date that a Borrowing in such Currency is made to such Borrower (other than a Swingline Borrowing), such Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans of such Class then outstanding; and
(3)to the applicable Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan of such Class made by such Swingline Lender to such Borrower and denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency, on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made to such Borrower; provided that on each date that a Borrowing in such Currency is made to such Borrower (other than any Swingline Borrowing), such Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans of such Class then outstanding.
In addition, on the Maturity Date, to the extent any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower is outstanding (notwithstanding the requirements of Section 2.04(d)),
such Borrower shall deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account Cash of such Borrower an amount equal to 102% of the undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit issued on behalf of
such Borrower outstanding on the close of business on the Maturity Date, such deposit to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for the LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower under this Agreement in respect of the undrawn portion of such Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower.
(2)Manner of Payment. Subject to Section 2.09(e), prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings hereunder, the applicable Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telecopy or e-mail of such selection not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. If the repayment or prepayment is denominated in Dollars and the Class to be repaid or prepaid is specified (or if no Class is specified and there is only one Class of Loans with Borrowings in Dollars outstanding), such Borrower shall repay or prepay any outstanding ABR Borrowings of such Class made to such Borrower pro rata and thereafter repay or prepay the remaining Borrowings within such Class made to such Borrower in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first). If the repayment or prepayment is denominated in Dollars and the Class to be repaid or prepaid is not specified, such Borrower shall repay or prepay pro rata between any outstanding ABR Borrowings made to such Borrower of the Dollar Lenders and the Multicurrency Lenders, and thereafter repay or prepay the remaining Borrowings made to such Borrower denominated in Dollars in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowings with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first). If the repayment or prepayment is denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency (including as a result of such Borrower’s receipt of proceeds from a prepayment event in such Agreed Foreign Currency), such Borrower may, at its option, repay or prepay any outstanding Borrowings made to such Borrower in such Currency ratably among just the Multicurrency Lenders in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first), and, if after such payment, the balance of the Borrowings made to such Borrower denominated in such Currency is zero, then if there are any remaining proceeds, such Borrower shall repay or prepay the Loans made to such Borrower (or provide cover for outstanding Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) on a pro-rata basis between each outstanding Class of Revolving Credit Exposure with respect to such Borrower in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid or prepaid first). Each payment of a Borrowing of a Class shall be applied ratably to the Loans of such Class included in such Borrowing.
(3)Maintenance of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender to such Borrower, including the amounts and Currency of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(4)Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record (i) the Borrower to which each Loan hereunder is made, (ii) the amount and Currency of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor, (iii) the amount and Currency of any principal or
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the applicable Borrower to each Lender of such Class hereunder and (iv) the amount and Currency of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders with respect to each Loan and each Lender’s share thereof.
(5)Effect of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence, absent obvious error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans made to such Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of obvious error. In the event of any conflict between the Register and any other accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent, the Register shall control in the absence of obvious error.
(6)Promissory Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its permitted registered assigns) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G or in such other form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) 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 permitted registered assigns). Upon the consummation of a Borrower Merger, at the request of the Surviving Borrower, each Lender shall promptly return each promissory note (if any) of each Non-Surviving Obligor in its possession to the Surviving Borrower (or provide a certification to the Surviving Borrower that such promissory note has been lost or destroyed).
SECTION 2.09. Prepayment of Loans.
(1)Optional Prepayments. Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time (but subject to Sections 2.09(f) and (h)) to prepay any Borrowing made to such Borrower in whole or in part, without premium or penalty except for payments under
Section 2.15, subject to the requirements of this Section.
(2)Mandatory Prepayments Due to Changes in Exchange Rates.
(1)Determination of Amount Outstanding. On each Revaluation Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure with respect to the applicable Borrower. For the purpose of this determination, the outstanding principal amount of any Loan or LC Exposure that is denominated in any Foreign Currency shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the amount in the
Foreign Currency of such Loan or LC Exposure, determined as of such Revaluation Date.
Upon making such determination, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Multicurrency Lenders and the applicable Borrower thereof.
(2)Prepayment. If, on the date of such determination, the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure with respect to the applicable Borrower minus the Multicurrency LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower fully cash collateralized pursuant to Section 2.04(k) on such date exceeds 105% of the aggregate amount of the Multicurrency Subcommitments as then in effect with respect to such Borrower, such Borrower shall prepay the Multicurrency Loans made to such Borrower and Swingline Multicurrency Loans made to such Borrower (and/or provide cover for Multicurrency LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower as specified in Section 2.04(k)) within 15 Business Days following the date such Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent of such determination in such aggregate amounts as shall be necessary so that after giving effect thereto the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure with respect to such Borrower does not exceed the Multicurrency Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower. Any prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be applied, first, to Swingline Multicurrency Loans made to such Borrower and outstanding, second, to Multicurrency Loans made to such Borrower and outstanding and third, as cover for Multicurrency LC Exposure of such Borrower.
Any prepayment made by a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph shall be applied, first, to its Multicurrency Loans outstanding and second, as cover for its Multicurrency LC Exposure.
(3)Mandatory Prepayments due to Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that at any time any Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist with respect to a Borrower, such Borrower shall (x) prepay (subject to Sections 2.09(f) and (h)) its Loans (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit issued on such Borrower’s behalf as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)), or (y) reduce its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower, in such amounts as shall be necessary so that such Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of such prepayment of Loans made to such Borrower (and cover for Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower) shall be at least equal to such Borrower’s Revolving Credit Exposure’s ratable share (such ratable share being determined based on the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures with respect to such Borrower as compared to its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower) of the aggregate prepayment and reduction of its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower and (ii) if, within five Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating such Borrowing Base Deficiency (and/or at such other times as such Borrower has knowledge of such Borrowing Base Deficiency), such Borrower shall present the Administrative Agent with a reasonably feasible plan to enable such Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days (which 30-Business Day period shall include the five Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan), then such prepayment or reduction shall not be required to be effected immediately but may be effected in accordance with such plan (with such modifications as such
Borrower may reasonably determine), so long as such Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within
such 30-Business Day period; provided, further, that solely to the extent such Borrowing Base Deficiency is due to a failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 5.13(j) as a consequence of a
change in either (x) the ratio of the Gross Borrowing Base to the Senior Debt Amount or (y) the Adjusted Debt to Equity Ratio from one (1) quarterly period to the next, such thirty (30) Business Day period, shall be extended to a forty-five (45) Business Day period solely with respect to compliance with Section 5.13(j). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency shall not be a Specified Default or Event of Default hereunder until the expiration of the applicable grace or cure period.
(4)Mandatory Prepayments due to Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that at any time any Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist with respect to a Borrower, such Borrower shall (x) prepay (subject to Sections 2.09(f) and (h)) its Loans (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit on such Borrower’s behalf as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)), or (y) reduce its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower, in such amounts as shall be necessary so that such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of such prepayment of Loans made to such Borrower (and cover for Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower) shall be at least equal to such Borrower’s Revolving Credit Exposure’s ratable share (such ratable share being determined based on the outstanding principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Exposures with respect to such Borrower as compared to its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower) of the aggregate prepayment and reduction of its other Indebtedness that is included in the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower and (ii) if, within five Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency (and/or at such other times as such Borrower has knowledge of such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency), such Borrower shall present the Administrative Agent with a reasonably feasible plan to enable such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days (which 30-Business Day period shall include the five Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan), then such prepayment or reduction shall not be required to be effected immediately but may be effected in accordance with such plan (with such modifications as such Borrower may reasonably determine), so long as such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within such 30-Business Day period; provided, further, that solely to the extent such Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency is due to a failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 5.13(j) as a consequence of a change in either (x) the ratio of the Gross Borrowing Base to the Senior Debt Amount or (y) the Adjusted Debt to Equity Ratio from one (1) quarterly period to the next, such thirty (30) Business Day period shall be extended to a forty-five (45) Business Day period solely with respect to compliance with Section 5.13(j). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the existence of a Contingent Borrowing Base Deficiency with respect to such Borrower shall not be a Specified Default or Event of Default hereunder with respect to such Borrower until the expiration of the applicable grace or cure period.
(5)Mandatory Prepayments due to Certain Events Following the Commitment Termination Date. Subject to Sections 2.09(e)(vi), (e)(vii), (f) and (h):
(1)Asset Sales. In the event that a Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group shall receive any Net Asset Sale Proceeds at any time after the Commitment Termination Date, such Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, prepay the Loans made to such
Borrower (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) in an amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds; provided that such Borrower shall only be required to apply such Net Asset Sale Proceeds to prepay the Loans made to such Borrower (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) in respect of non-Portfolio Investments if and to the extent the cumulative aggregate amount of all Net Asset Sale Proceeds relating to non-Portfolio Investments, from time to time, exceeds $5,000,000; provided, further that such Borrower shall not be required to make any prepayment under this clause (i) to the extent such Net Asset Sale Proceeds were received in connection with a Borrower Merger in which the assets or properties that were the subject of such Asset Sale were transferred to the Surviving Borrower.
(2)Extraordinary Receipts. In the event that a Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group shall receive any Extraordinary Receipts at any time after the Commitment Termination Date, such Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Extraordinary Receipts, prepay the Loans made to such Borrower (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) in an amount equal to such Extraordinary Receipts; provided that such Borrower shall only be required to apply such Extraordinary Receipts to prepay the Loans made to such Borrower (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) if and to the extent the cumulative aggregate amount of such Extraordinary Receipts, from time to time, exceeds $5,000,000.

(4)Equity Issuances. In the event that a Borrower shall receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance of Equity Interests of such Borrower (other than pursuant to any distribution reinvestment plan of such Borrower) at any time after the Commitment Termination Date, such Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash proceeds, prepay the Loans made to such Borrower (and/or provide cover for the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) in an amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of such Cash proceeds, net of (1) underwriting discounts and commissions or similar payments and other costs, fees, commissions, premiums and expenses incurred by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group directly incidental to such Cash receipts, including reasonable legal fees and expenses and (2) all taxes paid or reasonably estimated to be payable by such Borrower or such other Obligor as a result of such Cash receipts (after taking into account any available tax credits or deductions).

(v) above are Term Benchmark Loans, the applicable Borrower may defer such prepayment until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loans, so long as such Borrower deposits an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such proceeds, into a segregated collateral account (including, for the avoidance of doubt, segregated from the account of each other Borrower) in the name and under the dominion and control of the Administrative Agent pending application of such amount to the prepayment of such Loans on the last day of such Interest Period.
(7)RIC Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Extraordinary Receipts, Return of Capital or other Cash receipts required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.09(e) shall exclude the amounts estimated in good faith by the applicable Borrower to be necessary for such Borrower to make distributions sufficient in amount to achieve the objectives set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 6.05(b) hereof to the extent such Borrower recognizes any income or gains in connection with the receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Extraordinary Receipts, Return of Capital or other Cash receipts and the recognition of such income or gains results in an increase in the amounts required to be distributed by such Borrower to achieve such objectives.
(6)Payments Following the Commitment Termination Date or During an Event of Default. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Section 2.08 or this Section 2.09, following the Commitment Termination Date:

be made on a pro-rata basis (based on the outstanding principal amounts of such Indebtedness) between each outstanding Class of Revolving Credit Exposure with respect to such Borrower;
(2)Any prepayment of Loans in Dollars required to be made in connection with any of the events specified in Section 2.09(e) shall be applied ratably (based on the outstanding principal amounts of such Indebtedness) between the Dollar Lenders and the Multicurrency Lenders based on the then outstanding Loans made to the applicable Borrower and Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower denominated in Dollars; and
(3)Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to a Borrower, then any payment or repayment by such Borrower of the Loans made to such Borrower shall be made and applied ratably (based on the aggregate Dollar Equivalents of the outstanding principal amounts of such Loans) between Dollar Loans made to such Borrower, Multicurrency Loans made to such Borrower and Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower.
(7)[Reserved].

(9)Special Mandatory Repayment to 2020 Non-Extending Lenders. With respect to each Borrower, on November 7, 2024 (or, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on such earlier date on or after November 7, 2023 as such Borrower may elect by written notice in accordance with Section 2.09(h)), such Borrower shall repay all of the Revolving Loans of the 2020 Non-Extending Lenders and, in connection therewith, each other Lender hereby agrees that, so long as its Loans are not otherwise due and payable hereunder, it shall not be entitled to any pro-rata repayment of its Loans of the same Class notwithstanding Section 2.17(c) or any other provision hereof to the contrary. If any LC Exposure of such Borrower exists at the time of such repayment of the 2020 Non-Extending Lenders:
(1)all of such LC Exposure held by the 2020 Non-Extending Lender shall be reallocated among the Extending Lenders (other than the 2023 Non-Extending Lenders) with Subcommitments of the same Class as such 2020 Non-Extending Lender in accordance with their respective Applicable Multicurrency Percentages or Applicable Dollar Percentages, as applicable, but only to the extent (x) the sum of all Revolving Credit Exposures of a Class of such Borrower does not exceed the total of all Extending Lenders’ Subcommitments of such Class to such Borrower and (y) no Extending Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure of such Class with respect to such Borrower will exceed such Lender’s Subcommitment of such Class to such Borrower, and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time; and
(2)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, such Borrower shall on the day of such prepayment to the 2020 Non-Extending Lenders also prepay Loans in accordance with Section 2.09(a) in an amount such that after giving effect thereto, all LC Exposure of the applicable 2020 Non-Extending Lenders may be reallocated in accordance with clause (i) above
(whereupon such LC Exposure shall be so reallocated regardless of whether the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time).
(10)Special Mandatory Repayment to 2023 Non-Extending Lenders. With respect to each Borrower, on May 17, 2027 (or, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on such earlier date on or after May 17, 2026 as such Borrower may
elect by written notice in accordance with Section 2.09(h)), such Borrower shall repay all of the Revolving Loans of the 2023 Non-Extending Lenders and, in connection therewith, each other Lender hereby agrees that, so long as its Loans are not otherwise due and payable hereunder, it shall not be entitled to any pro-rata repayment of its Loans of the same Class notwithstanding Section 2.17(c) or any other provision hereof to the contrary. If any LC Exposure of such Borrower exists at the time of such repayment of the 2023 Non-Extending Lenders:
(1)all of such LC Exposure held by each 2023 Non-Extending Lender shall be reallocated among the Extending Lenders with Subcommitments of the same Class as such 2023 Non-Extending Lender in accordance with their respective Applicable Multicurrency Percentages or Applicable Dollar Percentages, as applicable, but only to the extent (x) the sum of all Revolving Credit Exposures of a Class of such Borrower does not exceed the total of all Extending Lenders’ Subcommitments of such Class to such Borrower and (y) no Extending Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure of such Class with respect to such Borrower will exceed such Lender’s Subcommitment of such Class to such Borrower, and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time; and
(2)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, such Borrower shall on the day of such prepayment to the 2023 Non-Extending Lenders also prepay Loans in accordance with Section 2.09(a) in an amount such that after giving effect thereto, all LC Exposure of the applicable 2023 Non-Extending Lenders may be reallocated in accordance with clause (i) above
(whereupon such LC Exposure shall be so reallocated regardless of whether the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time).
Upon termination of any Non-Extending Lender’s Commitments pursuant to Section 2.07(i) above and the reallocation of such Non-Extending Lender’s LC Exposure and repayment of each such Non-Extending Lender’s Loans and all other amounts then due and payable to such Non-Extending Lender in accordance with clauses (i) and (j) of this Section 2.09, such Non-Extending Lender shall cease being a party to this Agreement in its capacity as a “Lender” but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to such date.
SECTION 2.10. Fees.
(a)Commitment Fee. Each Borrower severally, and not jointly, and solely with respect to the Subcommitments allocated to it, agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue for the period beginning on the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of the date such Subcommitment terminates (including in connection with a reallocation in accordance with Section 2.07(g) or (h)) and the Commitment Termination Date, at a rate equal to, from and after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, 0.375% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Dollar Subcommitment or Multicurrency Subcommitment, as applicable, of such Lender with
respect to such Borrower. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable by a Borrower in arrears on the fifteenth (15th) day after each Quarterly Date and on the earlier of the date the Subcommitments of the respective Class with respect to such Borrower terminate (including in connection with a reallocation in accordance with Section 2.07(g) or (h)) and the Commitment Termination Date, commencing on
the first such date to occur after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Subcommitment of any Class of a Lender with respect to a Borrower shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans of such Class of such Lender made to such Borrower and LC Exposure of such Class of such Lender with respect to such Borrower (and the Swingline Exposure of such Class of such Lender to such Borrower shall be disregarded for such purpose).
(b)Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower severally, and not jointly, and solely with respect to the Subcommitments allocated to it, agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin applicable to interest on Term Benchmark Loans (or, if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Pounds Sterling, RFR Loans) made to such Borrower on the daily maximum amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to such Borrower) during the period from and including the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Subcommitment of the applicable Class terminates (including in connection with a reallocation in accordance with Section 2.07(g)) with respect to such Borrower and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure of such Class with respect to such Borrower, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Bank of such Borrower a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.25% (or such other rate as agreed by such Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank) per annum on the daily maximum amount of the LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to such Borrower) during the period from and including the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination (including in connection with a reallocation in accordance with Section 2.07(g)) of the Multicurrency Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit on behalf of such Borrower or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including each Quarterly Date shall be payable on the fifteenth (15th) day following such Quarterly Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date; provided that, all such fees with respect to the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower shall be payable on the date on which all Subcommitments of the applicable Class terminate with respect to such Borrower (with respect to a Borrower, the “termination date”), such Borrower shall pay any such fees that have accrued and that are unpaid on the termination date and, in the event any Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower shall be outstanding that have expiration dates after the termination date, such Borrower shall prepay on the termination date the full amount of the participation and fronting fees that will accrue on such Letters of Credit subsequent to the termination date through but not including the date such outstanding Letters of Credit are scheduled to expire (and in that connection, the Lenders agree not later than the date two Business Days after the date upon which the last such Letter of Credit shall expire or be terminated to rebate to such
Borrower the excess, if any, of the aggregate participation and fronting fees that have been prepaid by such Borrower over the amount of such fees that ultimately accrue through the date of such expiration or termination).
Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
(c)Administrative Agent Fees. Each Borrower severally, and not jointly, agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between such Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
(d)Payment of Fees. All fees payable by a Borrower hereunder shall be paid by such Borrower on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances absent obvious error. Any fees representing a Borrower’s reimbursement obligations of expenses, to the extent the requirements of an invoice are not otherwise specified in this Agreement, shall be due (subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein) within ten Business Days of the date that such Borrower receives from the Administrative Agent a reasonably detailed invoice for such reimbursement obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation of each Borrower to pay fees hereunder shall be a several and not joint obligation.
SECTION 2.11. Interest.
(1)ABR Loans. The Loans made to a Borrower constituting each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan denominated in Dollars) made to such Borrower shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin with respect to such Borrower.
(2)Term Benchmark Loans and RFR Loans. (i) The Loans made to a Borrower constituting each Term Benchmark Borrowing made to such Borrower shall bear interest at the applicable Term Benchmark for the related Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin with respect to such Borrower and (ii) the Loans made to a Borrower comprising each RFR Borrowing denominated in Sterling shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Adjusted Daily Simple RFR plus the Applicable Margin with respect to such Borrower.

(4)Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), if any principal of or interest on any Loan made to a Borrower or any fee or other amount payable by
such Borrower hereunder is not paid when due (after giving effect to any grace period), whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise, such overdue
amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus (x) if such other amount is denominated in Dollars, the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section, (y) if such other amount is denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than Pounds Sterling), the rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans as provided in paragraph (b)(i) of this Section or (z) if such other amount is denominated in Pounds Sterling, the rate applicable to RFR Loans as provided in paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section.

SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest.
(1)Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.12:
(1)if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the Term SOFR Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate, the Adjusted Term CORRA Rate, Term CORRA or the applicable Local Rate (including because the Relevant Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time for an RFR Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple RFR, Daily Simple RFR, SONIA or Daily Simple SOFR for the applicable Currency; or
(2)if the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the Term SOFR Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate, the Adjusted Term CORRA Rate, Term CORRA or the applicable Local Rate for the applicable Currency for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in
such Borrowing for the applicable Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple RFR, Daily Simple RFR, SONIA or Daily Simple SOFR for the applicable Currency will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for the applicable Currency;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the affected Lenders in writing by e-mail as promptly as practicable thereafter setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination and, (x) until the Administrative Agent notifies such Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (y) the applicable Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.06 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03,
(A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not also the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Borrowing if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above and (B) for Loans denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Borrowing, in each case, for the relevant Benchmark, shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted; provided further that, in connection with any ABR Borrowing made pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.12(a), the determination of the Alternate Base Rate shall disregard clause (c) of the definition thereof. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Currency is outstanding on the date of the applicable Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.12(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the applicable Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the applicable Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.06 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not also the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, and (B) for Loans denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, and
(2) any RFR Loan shall immediately, bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency plus the CBR Spread (or in the case of Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin); provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate (or in the case of Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate) for the
applicable Agreed Foreign Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency shall, at the applicable Borrower’s election prior to such day: (x) be prepaid by such Borrower on such day or
(y) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Foreign Currency) immediately.
(2)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Hedging Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.12), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the
then-current Benchmark for any Currency, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark (including any related adjustments) for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Required Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR or Daily Simple CORRA, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis. (3)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document other than as provided in the definition
of Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes (provided that the Administrative Agent’s determination shall be generally consistent with determinations made for borrowers of syndicated loans denominated in the applicable Currency).
(4)The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.12, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and
without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.12.
(5)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark for any Currency is a term rate (including Term SOFR Rate, Term CORRA or EURIBOR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (6)Upon each Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, such Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for (1) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (A) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) an ABR Borrowing if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) any request for any Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.12, (i) for Loans denominated in Dollars, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) an ABR
Loan if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day or (ii) for Loans denominated in an in any Agreed Foreign Currency, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan bear interest at the Central Bank Rate (or in the case of Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate) for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate (or in the case of Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate) for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Agreed Foreign Currency shall, at the applicable Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by such Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Agreed Foreign Currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time and (2) any RFR Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate (or in the case of Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate) for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate (or in the case of Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate) for the applicable Agreed Foreign Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Agreed Foreign Currency, at the applicable Borrower’s election, shall either (A) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Foreign Currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately. SECTION 2.13. Computation of Interest. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (a) Term Benchmark Borrowings in Canadian Dollars, AUD or NZD shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) and (b) RFR Borrowings and ABR Borrowings, at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted Term CORRA Rate, Term Benchmark Rate, Local Rate, EURIBOR, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, Daily Simple ESTR, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR (denominated in Pounds Sterling) or Daily Simple RFR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs.
(1)If any Change in Law shall:
(1)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, compulsory loan, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Bank; or
(2)impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense, affecting this Agreement or Loans made by
such Lender or any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank or participation by such Lender therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost (other than costs which are Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes) to such Lender of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan of a Borrower (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan to such Borrower) or to increase the cost (other than costs which are Taxes) to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) from such Borrower, then, upon the request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, such Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered on behalf of such Borrower; provided that no Lender will claim from any Borrower the payment of any of the amounts referred to in this paragraph (a) if not generally claiming similar compensation from its other similar customers in similar circumstances.
(2)Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank 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 or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made to a Borrower by, or participations in Swingline Loans made to a Borrower, or participations in Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements), by an amount deemed to be material by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, then, upon the request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, such Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered on behalf of such Borrower.
(3)Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the calculation of the amount or amounts, in Dollars, necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be promptly delivered to applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however that no Lender shall be requested to disclose confidential or price sensitive information or any other information, to the extent prohibited by applicable law. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.
(4)Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than three months prior to the date that such
Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’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 three-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
(5)Several Obligations. The obligation of any Borrower to pay any compensation pursuant to this Section shall be a several and not joint obligation, and solely on the Loans made to, the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of and the Subcommitments allocated to such Borrower.
SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments.
(1)In the event of (i) the payment by a Borrower of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor (including as a result of the occurrence of any Commitment Increase Date or an Event of Default with respect to any Borrower), (ii) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan made to a Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan made to a Borrower on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (including, in connection with any Commitment Increase Date, and regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.09(h) and is revoked in accordance herewith) or (iv) the assignment as a result of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19(b) of any Term Benchmark Loan made to such Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, then, in any such event, such Borrower shall compensate each affected Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (excluding loss of anticipated profits); provided that “Term Benchmark Loan” for purposes of this Section 2.15 shall not include any Loan or Borrowing determined by reference to Adjusted Daily Simple RFR. In the case of a Term Benchmark Loan made to a Borrower, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of:
(a)the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan referred to in clauses (a)(i) through (iv) of this Section
2.15 denominated in the Currency of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Term Benchmark Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Term Benchmark Rate for such Currency for such Interest Period, over
(b)the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an Affiliate of
such Lender) for deposits denominated in such Currency from other banks in the relevant market for such Currency at the commencement of such period.
(2)[Reserved].
(3)Payments under this Section shall be made upon written request of a Lender delivered to the applicable Borrower not later than 10 Business Days following a payment, conversion, or failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay that gives rise to a claim under this Section accompanied by a written certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.
SECTION 2.16. Taxes.
(1)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then (i) the applicable Borrower shall make such deductions or withholding, (ii) the applicable Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative Agent, the applicable Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.
(2)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes with respect to such Borrower to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(3)Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall severally, but not jointly, indemnify the Administrative Agent, any applicable Lender and any applicable Issuing Bank for, and within 30 Business Days after written demand therefor, pay the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, with respect to such Borrower and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, except for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank. A written certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(4)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(5)Foreign Lenders. Any applicable Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.
In addition, any applicable Foreign Lender, if requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Foreign Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) or any successor form claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,
(2)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or any successor form certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States,
(3)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of
section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) (or any successor form) certifying that the Foreign Lender is not a United States Person, or
(4)any other form including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY as applicable prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a
reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit such Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(6)United States Lenders. Each applicable Lender and each applicable Issuing Bank that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to each Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prior to the date on which such Issuing Bank or such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, and at times reasonably requested by any Borrower, duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any successor form, certificate or documentation.
(7)FATCA. If a payment made by a Borrower to a Lender under any Loan Document to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
In addition, each Lender agrees that if any certificate or documentation previously delivered under this Section 2.16 by such Lender expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect it shall update such certificate or documentation, provided it is legally able to do so at the time. Each Lender shall promptly notify each Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time the chief tax officer of such Lender becomes aware that it no longer satisfies the legal requirements to provide any previously delivered form, certificate or documentation to any Borrower (or any other form, certificate or documentation adopted by the U.S. or other taxing authorities for such purpose).
(8)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund or credit (in lieu of such refund) of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.
(9)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document to which the applicable Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party.
(10)Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing
of Set-offs.
(1)Payments by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall, severally and not jointly, make each payment required to be made by such Borrower hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document to which such Borrower is a party (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be
deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document to which such Borrower is a party and except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All amounts owing under this Agreement (including commitment fees, payments required under Section 2.14, and payments required under Section 2.15 relating to any Loan denominated in Dollars, but not including
principal of, and interest on, any Loan denominated in any Foreign Currency or payments relating to any such Loan required under Section 2.15 or any reimbursement or cash collateralization of any LC Exposure denominated in any Foreign Currency, which are payable in such Foreign Currency) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise
provided therein) are payable in Dollars. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of any Loan made to such Borrower or LC Disbursement with respect to such Borrower when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise), the unpaid portion of such Loan or such LC Disbursement shall, if such Loan or such LC Disbursement is not denominated in Dollars, automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the due date thereof (or, if such due date is a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, on the last day of such Interest Period) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such principal shall be payable on demand; and if a Borrower shall fail to pay any interest on any Loan made to such Borrower or LC Disbursement with respect to such Borrower that is not denominated in Dollars, such interest shall automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the due date therefor (or, if such due date is a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, on the last day of such Interest Period) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such interest shall be payable on demand.
(2)Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from a Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees of a Class, in each case, with respect to such Borrower then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees of such Class with respect to such Borrower then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees of such Class then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to such Borrower of such Class then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to such Borrower of such Class then due to such parties.
(3)Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Borrowing of a Class shall be made from the Lenders of such Class, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Subcommitments of a Class under Section 2.07 shall be applied to the respective Subcommitments of the Lenders of such Class, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Subcommitments of such Class; (ii) each Borrowing of a Class shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders of such Class according to the amounts of their respective Subcommitments of such Class (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans of such Class that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment of commitment fees under Section
2.10 shall be made by the applicable Borrower for the account of the Lenders pro rata according to the average daily unutilized amounts of their respective Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower; (iv) each payment or prepayment by the applicable Borrower of principal of Loans of a Class made to such Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders of such Class pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans of such Class held by them; and (v) each payment of interest by the applicable Borrower on Loans of a Class made to such Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders of such Class pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.
(4)Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender of a Class shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any
principal of or interest on any of its Loans made to a Borrower or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans with respect to a Borrower within its Class resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans made to such Borrower and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans with respect to such Borrower and accrued interest thereon of such Class then due than the proportion received by any other Lender of such Class, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans made to such Borrower and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans with respect to such Borrower of other Lenders of such Class to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders of such Class ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans made to such Borrower and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans with respect to such Borrower of such Class; provided that
(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans made to such Borrower or participations in LC Disbursements with respect to such Borrower to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing, solely as it applies to such Borrower, and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. For the avoidance of doubt, any Borrower may make a Borrowing under the Dollar Subcommitments or Multicurrency Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower (if otherwise permitted hereunder) and may use the proceeds of such Borrowing (x) with Dollar Subcommitments to prepay the Multicurrency Loans (without making a ratable prepayment of the Dollar Loans) made to such Borrower or (y) with Multicurrency Subcommitments to prepay the Dollar Loans (without making a ratable payment to the Multicurrency Loans) made to such Borrower.
(5)Presumptions of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.
(6)Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e), 2.05(b) or 2.17(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision
hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
SECTION 2.18. Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(1)commitment fees pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Subcommitments of such Defaulting Lender to the extent and during the period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender;
(2)the Subcommitment and Revolving Credit Exposure with respect to each Borrower of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether two-thirds of the Lenders, two-thirds of the Lenders of a Class, the Required Lenders or the Required Lenders of a Class have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders (or all Lenders of a Class) or each affected Lender (if applicable to such Defaulting Lender), including as set forth in Section 9.02(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
(3)if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure with respect to a Borrower exists at the time a Multicurrency Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
(1)all or any part of such Swingline Exposure (other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure consisting of Swingline Loans made by such Defaulting Lender) and LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders holding Subcommitments of the same Class as such Defaulting Lender in accordance with their respective Applicable Multicurrency Percentages or Applicable Dollar Percentages, as applicable, but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures of such Class with respect to such Borrower plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure of such Class with respect to such Borrower does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Subcommitments of such Class to such Borrower plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure of such Class to such Borrower and (y) no non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure of such Class with respect to such Borrower will exceed such Lender’s Subcommitment of such Class to such Borrower;
(2)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, such Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, within three Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure
with respect to such Borrower and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower (after giving effect to any partial reallocation
pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;
(3)if such Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower pursuant to clause (ii) above, such Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b) with respect to such LC Exposure during the period such LC Exposure is cash collateralized;
(4)if the LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower of the non-Defaulting Lenders of the same Class as such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable by such Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Multicurrency Percentages or Applicable Dollar Percentages, as applicable, in effect immediately after giving effect to such reallocation;
(5)if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.18(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have been payable by such Borrower to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Subcommitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable by such Borrower under Section 2.10(b) with respect to such LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and
(6)no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation; and
(4)so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lenders shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank of the same Class as such Defaulting Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit of such Class issued on behalf of any Borrower, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will
be 100% covered by the Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower of the non-Defaulting Lenders of such Class and/or cash collateral will be provided by such Borrower in accordance with Section 2.18(c), and Swingline Exposure related to any newly made Swingline Loan of such Borrower and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders of such Class in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).
In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers the Swingline Lenders and the Issuing Banks (with respect to any Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank, only to the extent that such Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank acts in such capacity under the same Class of
Subcommitments held by a Defaulting Lender) each agrees in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then, on
the date of such agreement, such Lender shall no longer be deemed a Defaulting Lender, each applicable Borrower shall no longer be required to cash collateralize any portion of such Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower cash collateralized pursuant to
Section 2.18(c)(ii) above and the Swingline Exposure and the LC Exposure of the affected Class with respect to such Borrower of the Lenders of such Class shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Subcommitment of such Class with respect to each Borrower and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par the portion of the Loans made to each Borrower (other than Swingline Loans) of the other Lenders of such Class as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Multicurrency Percentage or Applicable Dollar Percentage, as applicable, in effect immediately after giving effect to such agreement.
SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(1)Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.16, then such Lender (at the request of such Borrower) shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and
(ii) would not subject such Lender to any cost or expense not required to be reimbursed by a Borrower and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby severally, but not jointly, agrees to pay its portion, determined on a Pro-Rata Basis, of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(2)Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with clause (a) above, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or is a non-consenting Lender (that the Borrowers are permitted to replace as provided in Section 9.02(d)), or if any Lender is or becomes a Non-Extending Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon 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 Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.14 and Section 2.16) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if Subcommitments are being assigned, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment
from each Borrower of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans made to such Borrower and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, in each case, with respect to such Borrower, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable by
such Borrower to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts then due and owed by or with respect to such Borrower, including, without limitation, any amounts under Section 2.15), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (iv) in the case of any assignment as a result of a non-consenting Lender (that the Borrowers are permitted to replace as provided in Section 9.02(d)), the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent and (v) in the case of any assignment as a result of a Lender being a
Non-Extending Lender, the applicable assignment shall be of all such Non-Extending Lender’s Commitment and the applicable assignment shall be to an Extending Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
(3)Defaulting Lender. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e), 2.05 or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
SECTION 2.20. Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all related Charges, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. To the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of a Loan made to a Borrower, but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section, shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender by such Borrower in respect of other Loans made to such Borrower or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
SECTION 2.21. German Bank Separation Act.
Solely for so long as Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, or any Affiliate thereof, is a Lender, if any such Lender is subject to the GBSA (as defined below) (any such Lender, a “GBSA Lender”) and such GBSA Lender shall have determined in good faith (based
on reasonable advice and a written opinion of counsel), which determination shall be made in consultation with the Borrower subject to the terms hereof that, due to the implementation of the German Act on the Ring-fencing of Risks and for the Recovery and Resolution Planning for
Credit Institutions and Financial Groups (Gesetz zur Abschirmung von Risiken und zur Planung der Sanierung und Abwicklung von Kreditinstituten und Finanzgruppen) of 7 August 2013 (commonly referred to as the German Bank Separation Act (Trennbankengesetz) (the “GBSA”)), whether before or after the date hereof, or any corresponding European legislation (such as the proposed regulation on structural measures improving the resilience of European Union credit institutions) that may amend or replace the GBSA in the future or any regulation thereunder, or due to the promulgation of, or any change in the interpretation by, any court, tribunal or regulatory authority with competent jurisdiction of the GBSA or any corresponding future European legislation that may amend or replace the GBSA in the future or any regulation thereunder, the arrangements contemplated by this Agreement or the Loans have, or will, become illegal, prohibited or otherwise unlawful (regardless of whether such illegality, prohibition or unlawfulness could be prevented by transferring such arrangements, Commitments and/or Loans to an Affiliate or other third party), then, and in any such event, such GBSA Lender shall give written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which written notice shall include a reasonably detailed explanation of such illegality, prohibition or unlawfulness, including, without limitation, evidence and calculations used in the determination thereof, a “GBSA Initial Notice”), whereupon until the tenth Business Day after the date of such GBSA Initial Notice, such GBSA Lender shall use best efforts to transfer to the extent permitted under applicable law such arrangements, Commitments and/or Loans to an Affiliate or other third party in accordance with Section 9.04. If no such transfer is effected in accordance with the preceding sentence, such GBSA Lender shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a (“GBSA Final Notice”), whereupon (i) all of the obligations of such GBSA Lender shall become due and payable, and the Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal of such obligations together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts due and payable to the GBSA Lender, on the tenth Business Day immediately after the date of such GBSA Final Notice (the “Initial GBSA Termination Date”) and, for the avoidance of doubt, such repayment shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.08 or 2.15 and (ii) the Commitment of such GBSA Lender shall terminate on the Initial GBSA Termination Date; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to such Initial GBSA Termination Date, the Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent in good faith reasonably believes that there is a mistake, error or omission in the grounds used to determine such illegality, prohibition or unlawfulness under the GBSA or any corresponding future European legislation that may amend or replace the GBSA in the future or any regulation thereunder, then the Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, may provide written notice (which written notice shall include a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis of such good faith belief, including, without limitation, evidence and calculations used in the determination thereof, a “GBSA Consultation Notice”) to that effect, at which point the obligations owed to such GBSA Lender hereunder and under the Loans shall not become due and payable, and the Commitments of such GBSA Lender shall not terminate, until the Business Day immediately following the tenth Business Day immediately after the Initial GBSA Termination Date (the period from, and including, the date of the GBSA Consultation Notice until the tenth Business Day immediately thereafter being the “GBSA Consultation Period”). In the event that the Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and such GBSA Lender cannot in good faith reasonably agree during the GBSA Consultation Period whether the
arrangements contemplated by this Agreement or the Loans have, or will, become illegal, prohibited or otherwise unlawful under the GBSA or any corresponding future European legislation that may amend or replace the GBSA in
the future or any regulation thereunder, then all of the obligations owed to such GBSA Lender hereunder and under the Loans shall become due and payable, and the Commitments of such GBSA Lender shall terminate, on the Business Day immediately following the last day of such GBSA Consultation Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no part of the proceeds of any extension of credit hereunder will be used to pay any GBSA Lender or otherwise satisfy any obligation under this Section. To the extent that any LC Exposure exists at the time a GBSA Lender’s Commitments are cancelled and its obligations under the Loan Documents are repaid in full, such LC Exposure shall be reallocated as set forth in Sections 2.19(c)(i) through (v) treating for purposes hereof each Lender (other than any GBSA Lender) as a non-Defaulting Lender for purposes of such reallocation and treating the GBSA Lender as a Defaulting Lender solely for such purposes. To the extent any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure (in each case, of the same Class of Commitments held by the GBSA Lender) exists at the time a GBSA Lender’s Loans are repaid in full pursuant to this Section 2.21, such Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure shall be reallocated as set forth in Section 2.18(c), treating for this purpose such GBSA Lender as a Defaulting Lender.
SECTION 2.22. Swingline Loans.
(1)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Availability Period, each Swingline Lender severally agrees to, make Swingline Loans to a Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender exceeding such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Commitment, (ii) any Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment; provided that a Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan or (iii) the aggregate Swingline Exposure exceeding the Dollar Equivalent of $100,000,000. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
(2)To request a Swingline Loan, the applicable Borrower shall submit a written notice to any Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent by telecopy or electronic mail (i) in the case of a Swingline Loan denominated in Dollars, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of such proposed Swingline Loan and (ii) in the case of a Swingline Loan denominated in Euros or Pounds Sterling, not later than 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the day of such proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Swingline Bank and the Administrative Agent, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The applicable Swingline Lender shall make the requested Swingline Loan (in an amount not to exceed the amount permitted by clause (a) above) available to such Borrower by means of a credit to such Borrower’s account specified in Section 2.03(b)(vii) (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(f), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) (x) in the case of a Swingline denominated in Dollars, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such
Swingline Loan and (y) in the case of a Swingline Loan denominated in Euros or Pounds Sterling by 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Swingline Loans requested from ING, SMBC or Truist Bank shall be available in Dollars only.
(3)The failure of any Swingline Lender to make a Swingline Loan shall not relieve any other Swingline Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available any Swingline Loan, but no Swingline Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Swingline Lender to make a Swingline Loan to be made by such other Swingline Lender.
(4)Any Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent require the Lenders to acquire participations in all or a portion of its Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Multicurrency Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day and if received after 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day shall mean no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Swingline Lenders, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Swingline Lenders the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to such Swingline Lenders. Any amounts received by a Swingline Lender from such Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to such Swingline Lenders, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve such Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.
(5)Any Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of a Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective,
each Borrower shall pay its proportionate share of all unpaid interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to its replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans.
(6)Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Swingline Lender, any Swingline Lender may resign as a Swingline Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, each Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.22(e) above.

SECTION 5.08. Certain Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries; Further Assurances.

In the event that (1) a Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group shall form or acquire any new Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary) or (2) any Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary held by such Borrower or other members of its Obligor Group that is a Domestic Subsidiary shall no longer constitute an “Excluded Asset” or “Immaterial Subsidiary”, as applicable, pursuant to the definition thereof (in which case such Person shall be deemed to be a “new” Domestic Subsidiary for purposes of this Section 5.08), such Borrower will cause, within 30 days (or such longer period as shall be reasonably agreed by the Administrative Agent) following such Person becoming a new Domestic Subsidiary of such Borrower, such new Domestic Subsidiary to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” of such Borrower (and thereby an “Obligor” in such Borrower’s Obligor Group) under a Guarantee Assumption Agreement and to deliver such proof of corporate or other action, incumbency of officers, opinions of counsel (if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent), and other documents as is consistent with those delivered by such Borrower pursuant to Section 4.01 upon the Original Effective Date or as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested; provided that, any new Domestic Subsidiary acquired in connection with a Borrower Merger that was, immediately prior to such Borrower Merger, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall only be required to execute and deliver a Guarantee Assumption Agreement with respect to the obligations of the Surviving Borrower and no other deliverables will be required by such new Domestic Subsidiary to satisfy this Section 5.08(a). For the avoidance of doubt, any Borrower may elect to cause any of its Foreign Subsidiaries, Excluded Assets or Immaterial Subsidiaries to become a member of its Obligor Group by causing such Person to become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party, provided that (i) with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary, such Foreign Subsidiary shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent execute and deliver (and cause its parent to execute and deliver) a customary guarantee and/or security agreement governed by the laws of the country in which such Foreign Subsidiary is located, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent and
(ii) with respect to any Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary, such Borrower shall only be required to execute and deliver a Guarantee Assumption Agreement with respect to the obligations of such Borrower and no other deliverables will be required by such Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary, as applicable, to satisfy this Section 5.08(a) (at which point such
Person shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor and shall no longer be an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary).
(2)Ownership of Subsidiaries. Such Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that each of its Subsidiaries is a wholly owned Subsidiary, provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any transaction permitted under Section 6.03 or 6.04, so long as after giving effect to such permitted transaction each of the remaining Subsidiaries of such Borrower is a wholly owned Subsidiary.
(3)Further Assurances. Such Borrower will, and will cause each other member of its Obligor Group to, take such action from time to time (including filing appropriate Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements and other instruments) as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement, including:
(1)to create, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (and any Affiliate thereof that is a party to any Hedging Agreement entered into with such Borrower and/or such other Obligor) and the holders of any Other Secured Indebtedness of such Borrower, perfected security interests and Liens in the Collateral owned by such Borrower and such other Obligor; provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents to which such Borrower or such other Obligor is a party; provided further, that in the case of any Collateral consisting of voting stock of any Controlled Foreign Corporation of such Borrower, such security interest shall be limited to 65% of the issued and outstanding voting stock of such Controlled Foreign Corporation that is directly held by such Borrower or such other Obligor,
(2)subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.04 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party, to cause any bank or securities intermediary (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) to enter into such arrangements with the Collateral Agent as shall be appropriate in order that the Collateral Agent has “control” over each deposit account or securities account of such Borrower and such other Obligor (other than Excluded Accounts (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party)) and in that connection, such Borrower agrees to cause all cash and other proceeds of Portfolio Investments received by such Borrower and such other Obligor to be promptly deposited into such an account (or otherwise delivered to, or registered in the name of, the Collateral Agent) and, until such deposit, delivery or registration such cash and other proceeds in the possession of such Borrower shall be held in trust by such Borrower for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of such Borrower, such other Obligor, its Designated Subsidiaries or any other Person (including with any money or financial assets of such Borrower or such other Obligor in its capacity as “servicer” for any such Designated Subsidiary or any of its other Excluded Assets, or any money or financial assets of any Excluded Asset),
(3)in the case of any portfolio investment held by an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary of such Borrower, including any cash collection related thereto,
ensure that such portfolio investment shall not be held in the account of such Borrower or such other Obligor subject to a control agreement among such Borrower or such other Obligor, the Collateral Agent and the Custodian delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
(4)in the case of any Portfolio Investment consisting of a Bank Loan that does not constitute all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower under the relevant underlying loan documents and an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary of such Borrower holds any interest in the loans or other extensions of credit under such loan documents, (x) cause such Excluded Asset or such Immaterial Subsidiary to be party to such underlying loan documents as a “lender” having a direct interest (or a participation; provided that any participation acquired from such Borrower or such other Obligor shall give such Excluded Asset or such Immaterial Subsidiary the right to elevate such participation to an assignment at any time in its sole discretion, which right shall be exercised no later than 90 days after the acquisition thereof) in such underlying loan documents and the extensions of credit thereunder and (y) ensure that, subject to Section 5.08(c)(v) below, all amounts owing to such Borrower, such other Obligor or such Excluded Asset or Immaterial Subsidiary of such Borrower by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are remitted by such borrower or obligated party (or the applicable administrative agents, collateral agents or equivalent Person) directly to the accounts of such Borrower, such other Obligor, such Excluded Asset and such Immaterial Subsidiary, respectively,
(5)in the event that such Borrower or such other Obligor is acting as an agent or administrative agent (or analogous capacity) under any loan documents with respect to any Bank Loan and such Borrower or such other Obligor does not hold all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower under the relevant underlying loan documents, ensure that all funds held by such Borrower or such other Obligor in such capacity as agent or administrative agent are segregated from all other funds of such Borrower or such other Obligor and are clearly identified as being held in an agency capacity, and
(6)cause all credit or loan agreements, any notes and all assignment and assumption agreements relating to any Portfolio Investment of such Borrower or such other Obligor constituting part of the Collateral to be held by (x) the Collateral Agent,
(y) the Custodian pursuant to the terms of the applicable Custodian Agreement (or another custodian reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), or (z) pursuant to an appropriate intercreditor agreement, so long as the Custodian (or custodian) has agreed to grant access to such loan and other documents to the Administrative Agent pursuant to an access or similar agreement between such Borrower and the Custodian (or custodian) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that such Borrower’s obligation to deliver underlying documentation may be satisfied by delivery of copies of such agreements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) nothing contained herein shall prevent a Borrower from having a Participation Interest in a portfolio investment held by an Excluded Asset and (2)if any instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate held by the Custodian is destroyed or lost not as a result of any action of such Borrower, then any
original of such instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate shall be deemed held by the Custodian for all purposes hereunder; provided that, when such Borrower has actual knowledge of any such destroyed or lost instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate, it uses all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the underlying borrower, and deliver to the Custodian, a replacement instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate.
SECTION 5.09. Use of Proceeds. Such Borrower will use the proceeds of its Loans and the issuances of Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower for general corporate purposes of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, including, (a) purchasing shares of its common stock in connection with the redemption (or buyback) of its shares or, in the case of an Unlisted Borrower, in connection with a Tender Offer, (b) for (x) cash consideration paid or payable or (y) cash paid on account of fractional shares, in each case of this clause (b), in connection with a Borrower Merger, and (c) making other distributions, contributions and investments not prohibited by the Loan Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party, and the acquisition and funding (either directly or through one or more of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries) of leveraged loans, mezzanine loans, high-yield securities, convertible securities, preferred stock, common stock, Hedging Agreements and other Portfolio Investments of such Borrower, in each case to the extent otherwise permitted hereunder; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any responsibility as to the use of any of such proceeds. No part of the proceeds of any Loan made to such Borrower will be used in violation of applicable law or, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any Margin Stock (except as set forth in Section 3.11(d)). Upon the request of any Lender, the applicable Borrower shall furnish to such Lender a statement in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation
U. Such Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and such Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Subsidiaries and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Borrowing made to such Borrower or Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower (A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any
Anti-Corruption Laws applicable to such Borrower, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, in violation of any Sanctions applicable to such Borrower, or in any Sanctioned Country, to the extent such activities, businesses or transactions would be prohibited by Sanctions if conducted by a corporation incorporated in the United States, or (C) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.
SECTION 5.10. Status of RIC and BDC. Such Borrower shall at all times maintain its status as a RIC under the Code, and as a “business development company” under the Investment Company Act.
SECTION 5.11. Investment and Valuation Policies. Such Borrower shall promptly advise the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of any material change in either its Investment Policies or Valuation Policy.
SECTION 5.12. Portfolio Valuation and Diversification, Etc.
(1)Industry Classification Groups. For purposes of this Agreement, such Borrower, in its reasonable determination, shall assign (including in connection with a Borrower Merger) each Portfolio Investment owned by it or any other member of its Obligor Group to an Industry Classification Group. To the extent that such Borrower reasonably determines that any such Portfolio Investment is not adequately correlated with the risks of other Portfolio Investments assigned to an Industry Classification Group, such Borrower may assign such Portfolio Investment to an Industry Classification Group that is more closely correlated to such Portfolio Investment. In the absence of adequate correlation, such Borrower shall be permitted to, upon notice to the Collateral Agent for distribution to each Lender, create up to three additional industry classification groups for purposes of this Agreement; provided that once any Borrower has created an additional industry classification group, such industry classification group may be used by any other Borrower as an Industry Classification Group; provided further that no more than three different additional industry classification groups may be created by all of the Borrowers in the aggregate pursuant to this paragraph (a).
(2)Portfolio Valuation Etc.
(1)Settlement Date Basis. For purposes of this Agreement, all determinations of whether an investment is to be included as a Portfolio Investment shall be determined on a settlement date basis (meaning that any investment that has been purchased will not be treated as a Portfolio Investment until such purchase has settled, and any Portfolio Investment which has been sold will not be excluded as a Portfolio Investment until such sale has settled); provided that no such investment shall be included as a Portfolio Investment to the extent it has not been paid for in full.
(2)Determination of Values. Such Borrower will conduct reviews of the value to be assigned to each of its Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower as follows:
(a)Quoted Investments—External Review. With respect to Portfolio Investments (including Cash Equivalents) held by such Borrower for which market quotations are readily available (“Quoted Investments”), such Borrower shall, not less frequently than once each calendar week, determine the market value of such Quoted Investments owned by it or any other member of its Obligor Group which shall, in each case, be determined in accordance with one of the following methodologies (as selected by such Borrower):
(xxiii)in the case of public and 144A securities, the average of the bid prices as determined by at least two Approved Dealers selected by such Borrower,
(xxiv)in the case of Bank Loans, the average of the bid prices as determined by at least two Approved Dealers selected by such Borrower or an Approved Pricing Service which makes reference to at least two Approved Dealers with respect to such Bank Loans,
(xxv)in the case of any Quoted Investment traded on an exchange, the closing price for such Portfolio Investment most recently posted on such exchange, and
(xxvi)in the case of any other Quoted Investment, the fair market value thereof as determined by an Approved Pricing Service; and
(b)Unquoted Investments—External Review. With respect to Portfolio Investments owned by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group for which market quotations are not readily available (“Unquoted Investments”), such Borrower shall value such Unquoted Investments quarterly in a manner consistent with its valuation policy, as the same may be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time consistent with industry practice for business development companies and in a manner not prohibited by this Agreement (the “Valuation Policy”), including valuation of at least 35% by value of all Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower using the assistance of an Approved Third Party Appraiser.
(c)Internal Review. Such Borrower shall conduct an internal review of the aggregate value of the Portfolio Investments owned by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group included in the Collateral Pool of such Borrower or the Borrowing Base of such Borrower, at least once each calendar week, which shall take into account any event of which such Borrower has knowledge that materially adversely affects the aggregate value of such Portfolio Investments included in the Collateral Pool of such Borrower or the Borrowing Base of such Borrower. If, based upon such weekly internal review, such Borrower determines that a Borrowing Base Deficiency with respect to such Borrower exists, then such Borrower shall, within five Business Days as provided in Section 5.01(e), deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting the new amount of the Borrowing Base of such Borrower and shall take the actions, and make the payments and prepayments on the Loans made to such Borrower (and/or provide cover for Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower), all as more specifically set forth in Section 2.09(c).
(d)Failure to Determine Values. If such Borrower shall fail to determine the value of any Portfolio Investment owned by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group as at any date pursuant to the requirements (but subject to the exclusions) of the foregoing subclauses (A) through (C), the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment as at such date shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of the Borrowing Base of such Borrower.
provided that, each Borrower shall value substantially all Portfolio Investments held by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group pursuant to the foregoing requirements no less frequently than once in any rolling twelve-month period.
(3)Scheduled Testing of Values.
(a)Each April 30, July 31, October 31 and February 28 of each calendar year (or such other dates as are agreed to by such Borrower and the Collateral Agent, but in no event less frequently than once per calendar quarter, with respect to such Borrower, each a “Valuation Testing Date”), the Collateral Agent through an Independent Valuation Provider will test the values determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) above of those Unquoted Investments owned by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower selected by the Collateral Agent; provided, that the aggregate fair value of such Unquoted Investments tested on any Valuation Testing Date will be equal to the Tested Amount (as defined below) (or as near thereto as reasonably practical); provided further that, if more than one Borrower holds an Investment in the same Unquoted Investment, in no event shall more than one Independent Valuation Provider value such Unquoted Investment on the applicable Valuation Testing Date without the written consent of each applicable Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, Unquoted Investments that are part of the Collateral but not included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower as of a Valuation Testing Date (the “Applicable Valuation Testing Date”) shall not be subject to testing under this Section 5.12(b)(iii); provided that such Unquoted Investment shall continue to be excluded from the Borrowing Base until such time as the applicable Borrower determines to include it in the Borrowing Base and it was eligible to be included in the Borrowing Base as part of the Tested Amount as of the most recent Valuation Testing Date prior to such time.
(b)For purposes of this Agreement, the “Tested Amount” with respect to a Borrower shall be equal to the greater of: (i) an amount equal to (y) 125% of the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower (as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date) minus (z) the sum of the values of all Cash and all Quoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower (as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date) and (ii) 10% of the aggregate value of all Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower (as of the applicable Valuation Testing Date); provided, however, in no event shall more than 25% (or, if clause (ii) applies, 10%, or as near thereto as reasonably practicable) of the aggregate value of the Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower be tested by the Independent Valuation Provider in respect of any applicable Valuation Testing Date. If the Value of the Unquoted Investments included in the Borrowing Base is less than the “Tested Amount” as calculated in the immediately preceding sentence, then the “Tested Amount” shall equal the Value of such Unquoted Investments. If more than one Borrower holds an investment in the same Unquoted Investment, and an Independent Valuation Provider values such Unquoted Investment, then such Unquoted Investment shall be deemed valued by the
Independent Valuation Provider for the purposes of determining the “Tested Amount” for each Borrower that holds such investment.
(c)With respect to any Unquoted Investment of any Borrower, if the value of such Unquoted Investment determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) by such Borrower is not more than the lesser of (1) five (5) points more than the midpoint of the valuation range (expressed as a percentage of par) provided by the Independent Valuation Provider (provided that the value of such Unquoted Investment is customarily quoted as a percentage of par) and (2) 110% of the midpoint of the valuation range provided by the Independent Valuation Provider, then the value for such Unquoted Investment determined in accordance with Section 5.12(b)(ii) by such Borrower shall continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement. If the value of any Unquoted Investment determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) by such Borrower is more than the lesser of the values set forth in clause (C)(1) and (2) (to the extent applicable), then for such Unquoted Investment, the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement shall become the lesser of (x) the highest value of the valuation range provided by the Independent Valuation Provider, (y) five (5) points more than the midpoint of the valuation range (expressed as a percentage of par) provided by the Independent Valuation Provider (provided that the value of such Unquoted Investment is customarily quoted as a percentage of par) and (z) 110% of the midpoint of the valuation range provided by the Independent Valuation Provider; provided that, if a Portfolio Investment (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a Participation Interest) is acquired (other than in connection with a Borrower Merger) during a fiscal quarter and until such time as the Value is obtained with respect to such Portfolio Investment pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(A), 5.12(b)(ii)(B) or 5.12(b)(iii), the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment shall be deemed to be equal to the lower of (x) the value of such Portfolio Investment determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) and (y) the cost of such Unquoted Investment; provided further that, if a Portfolio Investment is acquired in connection with a Borrower Merger during a fiscal quarter and until such time as the Value is obtained with respect to such Portfolio Investment pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(A), 5.12(b)(ii)(B) or 5.12(b)(iii), the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment shall be the Value as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12 with respect to such Non-Surviving Obligor (it being the understanding that the Value determined by an Approved Third-Party Appraiser or an Independent Valuation Provider of the Portfolio Investments of the Non-Surviving Obligors as of the most recently ended quarterly period or Valuation Testing Date shall carry over to the Surviving Obligor until a new value is obtained under Section 5.12(b)(ii)).
(4)Supplemental Testing of Values.
(a)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each individually or at the request of the Required Lenders, shall, with respect to any Borrower, at any time have the right, solely for purposes of the Borrowing Base of such Borrower, to request, in its reasonable discretion, any Portfolio Investment included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower with a value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) to be independently tested by the Independent Valuation Provider. There shall be no limit on the number of such tests that may be requested by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion. If (x) the value determined by such Borrower
pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is less than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause, then the value determined by such
Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement and (y) if the value determined by such Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is greater than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause and the difference between such values is: (1) less than or equal to 5% of the value determined by such Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the value determined by such Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall continue to be used as the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement; (2) greater than 5% and less than or equal to 20% of the value determined by such Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement shall become the average of the value determined by such Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) and the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause; and (3) greater than 20% of the value determined by such Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then such Borrower and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall retain an additional third-party appraiser and, upon the completion of such appraisal, the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement shall become the average of the three valuations (with the value of the Independent Valuation Provider determined pursuant to this clause to be used as the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment until the third value is obtained). For the avoidance of doubt, Portfolio Investments that are part of the Collateral but not included in the Borrowing Base of such Borrower as of the Applicable Valuation Testing Date shall not be subject to testing under this Section 5.12(b)(iv); provided that such Portfolio Investment shall continue to be excluded from the Borrowing Base until such time as the applicable Borrower determines to include it in the Borrowing Base and it was eligible to be included in the Borrowing Base as part of the Tested Amount as of the most recent Valuation Testing Date prior to such time.
(b)Except as otherwise provided herein, the Value of any Portfolio Investment for which the Independent Valuation Provider’s value is used shall be the midpoint of the range (if any) determined by the Independent Valuation Provider. The Independent Valuation Provider shall apply a recognized valuation methodology that is commonly accepted by the business development company industry for valuing Portfolio Investments of the type being valued and held by such Borrower and any other member of its Obligor Group.
(c)For the avoidance of doubt, the Value of any Portfolio Investment determined in accordance with this Section 5.12 shall be the Value of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement until a new Value for such Portfolio Investment is subsequently determined in accordance with this
Section 5.12.
(d)The reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs of any valuation reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent, as applicable, under this Section 5.12 shall be at the expense of the applicable Borrower; provided that the aggregate of all Borrowers’ obligations to
reimburse valuation costs incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, collectively, pursuant to this Section 5.12(b)(iv) shall be limited to an aggregate annual amount equal to the greater of (x) $200,000 and (y) 0.05% of the total Commitments (provided, in the case of any Borrower, such Borrower’s annual reimbursement obligation shall in no event be greater than 0.05% of the total Subcommitments allocated to such Borrower).
(e)In addition, the values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider shall be deemed to be “Information” hereunder and subject to
Section 9.13 hereof.
(f)The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall provide a copy of the final results of any valuation performed by the Independent Valuation Provider or an Approved Third-Party Appraiser to any Lender promptly upon such Lender’s request, except to the extent that such recipient has not executed and delivered a customary and reasonable non-reliance letter, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement requested or required by such Independent Valuation Provider or Approved Third-Party Appraiser, as applicable.
(5)For the avoidance of doubt, any Values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to Sections 5.12(b)(iii) and (iv) shall only be required to be used for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base of such Borrower and shall not be required to be utilized by any Borrower for any other purpose, including, without limitation, the delivery of financial statements or valuations required under ASC 820 or the Investment Company Act.
(6)The Independent Valuation Provider shall be instructed to conduct its tests in a manner not disruptive in any material respect to the business of any Borrower. The Collateral Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of its receipt of the final results of any valuation performed by the Independent Valuation Provider promptly upon its receipt thereof and shall provide a copy of such results and the related report to such Borrower promptly upon such Borrower’s request.
(3)Investment Company Diversification Requirements. Such Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries (other than Subsidiaries that are exempt from the Investment Company Act) at all times to comply in all material respects with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Investment Company Act applicable to business development companies. Such Borrower will at all times, subject to applicable grace periods set forth in the Code, comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Code applicable to RICs.
(4)Participation Interests. The Value attributable to any Participation Interest shall be the Value determined with respect to the underlying portfolio investment related to such Participation Interest in accordance with this Section 5.12, provided any participation interest
that does not satisfy the definition of Participation Interest shall have a Value of zero for purposes of this Agreement.
SECTION 5.13. Calculation of Borrowing Base. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Borrowing Base” with respect to a Borrower shall be determined, as at any date of determination, as the sum of the products obtained by multiplying
(10)the Value of each Portfolio Investment of such Borrower in the Collateral Pool of such Borrower by (y) the applicable Advance Rate, provided that:
a.if, as of such date, the Adjusted Debt to Equity Ratio is (i) less than 1.0:1.0, the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the aggregate Value of such Portfolio Investments of such Borrower of all issuers in a consolidated group of corporations or other entities in accordance with GAAP exceeding 6% of the aggregate Value of all such Portfolio Investments in the Collateral Pool of such Borrower, shall

“Advance Rate” means, as to any Portfolio Investment of a Borrower and subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.13(a) through (j), as applicable, the following percentages with respect to such Portfolio Investment:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Portfolio Investment1 | Quoted | Unquote | Quoted | Unquoted |
1 For the avoidance of doubt, the above categories are intended to be indicative of the traditional investment types. All determinations of whether a particular Portfolio Investment belongs to one category or another shall be made by the applicable Borrower on a consistent basis with the foregoing. For example, (A) a secured bank loan at a holding company, the only assets of which are the shares of an operating company, may constitute Mezzanine Investments but would not ordinarily constitute a Bank Loan, (B) a Performing Principal Finance Asset that is a debt investment with respect to which any of the tranches junior to such Principal Finance Asset are not Performing may constitute Performing Principal Finance Preferred Stock Assets or Performing Principal Finance Common Equity Assets, as
applicable, but would not ordinarily constitute a Performing Principal Finance Debt Asset and (C) a Principal Finance Asset that is preferred equity with respect to which any of the tranches junior to such Principal Finance Asset are not Performing may constitute Performing Principal Finance Common Equity Assets, but would not ordinarily constitute a Performing Principal Finance Preferred Stock Asset.

ARTICLE VIII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as the collateral agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Collateral Agent to have all the rights and benefits hereunder and thereunder (including Section 9 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement), and to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of business trust or other business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and such Person and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders.
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The motivations of the
Administrative Agent are commercial in nature and not to invest in the general performance or operations of any Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the
Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Borrower, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default with respect to a Borrower unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by such Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any e-mail, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrowers not to be unreasonably withheld (or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to a Borrower, in consultation with such Borrower), to appoint a successor, which is a Lender. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) the Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by each Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

(which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the applicable Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(b) with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents; provided that, without the prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any Security Document providing for collateral security, agree to additional obligations being secured by all or substantially all of such collateral security, or alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the benefits of the Liens created under the Security Documents with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral of any Borrower, except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to (1) release (which such release shall be automatic and require no further action from any party) any Lien covering property that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented, (2) release from any Guarantee and Security Agreement any “Subsidiary Guarantor” (and any property of such Subsidiary Guarantor) that is designated as a “Designated Subsidiary” by the applicable Borrower or becomes an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary with respect to a Borrower in accordance with this Agreement or which is no longer required to be a “Subsidiary Guarantor”, so long as in the case of this clause (2):

any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.
Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole
discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Lender or Issuing Bank), and demands in writing the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to the foregoing shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.
Each Borrower and each other member of its Obligor Group hereby agrees that
(x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group, except, in each case, to the extent such Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from such
Borrower or such other member of its Obligor Group for the purpose of making any payment hereunder.
The Administrative Agent may treat any Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure of any Class of the Non-Extending Lenders that are outstanding at any time as a distinct Class of Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure from any outstanding Commitments, Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure of the Extending Lenders; provided that any such treatment is solely for administrative purposes and will not affect any Lender’s rights or obligations hereunder.

(2)Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic
communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Article II if such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under
such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or any Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless otherwise notified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, the Borrowers may satisfy their respective obligations to deliver documents or notices to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under Sections 5.01 and 5.02 by delivering an electronic copy to: michelle.keesee@chase.com, or such other e-mail address(es) as provided to the Borrowers in a notice from the Administrative Agent, (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide notice thereof to the Lenders).
Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.
In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender have any liability to the Borrowers or any other Person for damages of any kind (whether in tort contract or otherwise) arising out of any transmission of communications through the internet, except in the case of direct damages, to the extent such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such relevant Person.
(3)Documents to be Delivered under Sections 5.01 and 5.02. For so long as an Intralinks™ or equivalent website is available to each of the Lenders hereunder, each Borrower may satisfy its obligation to deliver documents to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under Sections 5.01 and 5.02 by delivering either an electronic copy in the manner specified in Section 9.01(b) or a notice identifying the website where such information is located for posting by the Administrative Agent on Intralinks™ or such equivalent website; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to maintain access to Intralinks™ or an equivalent website.
SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.
(1)No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they
would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Borrower
therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(2)Amendments to this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the applicable Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the applicable Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders (it being understood that in no event will any waiver, amendment or modification apply to any Borrower without the prior written consent of such Borrower); provided that, no such agreement shall:
(1)increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,
(2)reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than the application of any interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.11(d)), or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,
(3)postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,
(4)change Section 2.17(b), (c) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby,
(5)change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender,
(6)other than as permitted by this Agreement, the applicable Guarantee and Security Agreement or any other applicable Loan Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien created under such Guarantee and Security Agreement or release all or substantially all of the Obligors from their obligations as Subsidiary Guarantors thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender,
(7)amend the definition of “Applicable Percentage”, “Applicable Dollar Percentage” or “Applicable Multicurrency Percentage”, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, or
(8)amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.21 without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby;
provided further that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be and (y) the consent of Lenders holding not less than two-thirds of the holders of the total Revolving Credit Exposures with respect to the applicable Borrower and unused Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower will be required for any adverse change (from the Lenders’ perspective) affecting the provisions of this Agreement solely relating to the calculation of the Borrowing Base of such Borrower (excluding changes to the provisions of Section 5.12(b)(iii) or (iv), but including changes to the provisions of Section 5.12(c)(ii) and the definitions set forth in Section 5.13) unless otherwise expressly provided herein.
For purposes of this Section, the “scheduled date of payment” of any amount shall refer to the date of payment of such amount specified in this Agreement, and shall not refer to a date or other event specified for the mandatory or optional prepayment of such amount. In addition, whenever a waiver, amendment or modification requires the consent of a Lender “affected” thereby, such waiver, amendment or modification shall, upon consent of such Lender, become effective as to such Lender whether or not it becomes effective as to any other Lender, so long as the Required Lenders consent to such waiver, amendment or modification as provided above.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Lenders of any Class in a manner that does not affect all Classes equally shall be effective against the Lenders of such Class unless the Required Lenders of such Class shall have concurred with such waiver, amendment or modification as provided above; provided, however, in no other circumstances shall the concurrence of the Required Lenders of a particular Class be required for any waiver, amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(3)Amendments to Security Documents. Except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth in the applicable Guarantee and Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents, no Security Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified, nor may the Liens granted under such Guarantee and Security Agreement be spread to secure any additional obligations (excluding (x) any increase in the Loans made to any Borrower and Letters of Credit issued on behalf of any Borrower hereunder pursuant to a Commitment Increase under Section 2.07(e), (y) any increase in any Other Secured Indebtedness permitted hereunder and (z) the spreading of such Liens to any Designated Indebtedness or Hedging Agreement Obligations (as such terms are defined in the applicable Guarantee and Security Agreement) as provided for in the applicable Guarantee and Security Agreement) except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the applicable Borrower and the Collateral Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders;
provided that, except as otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan Documents to which the applicable Borrower is a party, (i) without the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement shall release all or substantially all of the members of any Borrower’s Obligor Group from their respective
obligations under the Security Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party and (ii) except as otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement shall release all or substantially all of the collateral security or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under the Security Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party, alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the Liens created under the Security Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party (except in connection with securing additional obligations equally and ratably with the Loans made to such Borrower and other obligations of such Borrower hereunder) with respect to all or substantially all of the collateral security provided thereby, or release all or substantially all of the guarantors under the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party from their guarantee obligations thereunder, except that, in each case described in clause (i) or (ii), no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (and so agrees with each Borrower) to direct the Collateral Agent under the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party (in addition to the rights of such parties under the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party), to (1) release any Lien covering property (and to release any such guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder (including, without limitation, any property subject to a participation or repurchase transaction not prohibited hereunder)or a disposition to which the Required Lenders or the required number or percentage of Lenders have consented (and such Lien shall be released automatically (A) to the extent provided in Section 10.03 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement to which such Borrower is a party and (B) to the extent permitted hereunder in connection with any property becoming subject to a participation or repurchase transaction), (2) release from any Guarantee and Security Agreement any “Subsidiary Guarantor” (and any property of such Subsidiary Guarantor) that is designated as a “Designated Subsidiary” by the applicable Borrower, becomes an Excluded Asset or an Immaterial Subsidiary of the applicable Borrower in accordance with this Agreement or is otherwise no longer required to be a “Subsidiary Guarantor” of such Borrower (including, without limitation, because it ceases to be consolidated on the applicable Borrower’s financial statements) and, so long as (A) after giving effect to any such release under this clause (2) and any Concurrent Transactions, the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower does not exceed the Borrowing Base of such Borrower and such Borrower delivers a certificate of a Financial Officer of such Borrower to such effect to the Administrative Agent, (B) immediately after giving effect to any Concurrent Transactions, either
(I) the amount of any excess availability under the Borrowing Base of such Borrower immediately prior to such release is not diminished as a result of such release or (II) the Adjusted Gross Borrowing Base of such Borrower immediately after giving effect to such release is at least 110% of the Covered Debt Amount of such Borrower and (C) no Specified Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower and (3) release from any Guarantee and Security Agreement any Obligor (and any property of such Obligor) that is concurrently being joined as an Obligor under any other Guarantee and Security Agreement in connection with a transaction permitted hereunder.
(4)Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, amendment, consent, discharge or termination to any of the
provisions of this Agreement requiring (i) the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby” or (ii) the consent of “two-thirds of the holders of the total Revolving Credit Exposures with respect to the applicable Borrower and unused Subcommitments with respect to such Borrower”
that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the consent of one or more Lenders whose consent is required for such proposed change, waiver, amendment, consent, discharge or termination is not obtained, or if any Lender shall decline to consent to the addition of a “Borrower” pursuant to Section 9.19, then (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Borrower) the Borrowers shall have the right, at their sole cost and expense, to replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.19(b) so long as at the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge, termination or addition.
SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
(1)Costs and Expenses. Each Borrower shall, severally and not jointly, pay (solely with respect to obligations owed by such Borrower and on behalf of such Borrower, and not with respect to obligations owed by or on behalf of any other Borrower) (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred with respect to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (with respect to legal fees, limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel for the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates collectively) (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), subject to any limitation previously agreed in writing, (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the applicable Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit on behalf of such Borrower or any demand for payment by such Borrower thereunder, (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred with respect to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender (with respect to legal fees, limited to the documented fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel (and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender affected by such conflict informs such Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, another firm of counsel for any such affected Person) for the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank and any Lender collectively), in connection with the enforcement or protection of such Person’s respective rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made to such Borrower or Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower hereunder, including all such documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof and (iv) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest in such Borrower’s assets contemplated by any Security Document to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party or any other document referred to therein. All amounts payable under this paragraph (a) that are not attributable solely to a specific Borrower (as a result of such payment obligations arising out of Borrowings of such Borrower or breaches or violation by such Borrower of the terms hereof or of applicable law) shall be the several obligations of all Borrowers, allocated on a Pro-Rata Basis or otherwise as equitably allocated among the Borrowers and notified to the Administrative Agent by each of the Borrowers.
(2)Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall, severally and not jointly (solely with respect to and on behalf of such Borrower, and not with respect to or on behalf of any other Borrower), indemnify the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank, each Joint Lead Arranger and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (with respect to a Borrower, each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee of such Borrower harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (with respect to legal fees, limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel (and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs such Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, another firm of counsel for any such affected Indemnitee) for the Indemnitees collectively (other than the allocated costs of internal counsel)), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee of such Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery by such Borrower of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder owed by or to or otherwise arising with respect to such Borrower or the consummation of the Transactions to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party or any other transactions contemplated hereby to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party, (ii) any Loan made to such Borrower or Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower or the use by such Borrower of the proceeds received by such Borrower therefrom (including any refusal by the applicable Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee of such Borrower is a party thereto, in each case of this paragraph (b), solely to the extent directly related to such Borrower or, if relating to more than one Borrower (or to no specific Borrower), each relevant Borrower shall be responsible for its proportionate share of any such amounts determined in accordance with the respective allocations of the Subcommitments hereunder or as the relevant Borrowers may otherwise agree; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee of such Borrower, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (A) the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, (B) a claim brought by such Borrower or such other Obligor against such Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party, if there has been a final and nonappealable judgment against such Indemnitee on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (C) a claim arising as a result of a dispute between Indemnitees of such Borrower (other than (x) any dispute involving claims against the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and (y) claims arising out of any act or omission by such Borrower or its Affiliates). This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
No Borrower shall be liable to any Indemnitee for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the
Transactions to which such Borrower is a party asserted by any Indemnitee against any Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group, provided that the foregoing limitation shall not be deemed to impair or affect the obligations of any Borrower under the preceding provisions of this subsection.
(3)Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage or Applicable Multicurrency Percentage, as applicable, with respect to such Borrower (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank in its capacity as such.
(4)Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party (or any Related Party to such party), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof, provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit any Borrower’s indemnification obligations under Section 9.03 to the extent such special, indirect consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification thereunder.
(5)Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.
SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.
(1)Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the reallocation of any Subcommitments between Borrowers hereunder) without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Lender which is not in accordance with this Section shall be treated as provided in the last sentence of Section 9.04(b)(iii)). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(2)Assignments by Lenders.
(1)Assignments Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans and LC Exposure at the time owing to it), provided that, following any such assignment, the Lenders shall hold the same percentage of Subcommitments, Loans and LC Exposure across all Borrowers (and the same percentage of Commitments as Subcommitments).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Borrower’s consent shall be required with respect to an assignment to any Disqualified Lender unless an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower, provided that the foregoing shall not limit the consent rights with respect to an assignment to any Disqualified Lender of any Borrower for which an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII has not occurred or is not continuing.
(2)Certain Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(a)prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:
i.each Borrower; provided, that no consent of a Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or, if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower, any other assignee; provided further, that a Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and
ii.the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks; provided no consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks shall be required for an assignment by a Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender with prior written notice by such assigning Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks;
(b)except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans to all Borrowers and LC Exposure with respect
to all Borrowers of a Class, the amount of the Commitment of such Class of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Assumption in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than U.S. $5,000,000 unless the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of a Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower;
(c)each partial assignment of any Class of Commitments (or any related Revolving Credit Exposure) shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Class of Commitments, including a ratable portion of the Loans, the applicable LC Exposure and the Subcommitments with respect to each Borrower;
(d)the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of U.S. $3,500 (which fee shall not be payable in connection with an assignment to a Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender) (for which no Obligor shall be obligated); and
(e)the assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender of the applicable Class, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(3)Effectiveness of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.
(3)Maintenance of Register by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and the Subcommitments of, principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans of and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender with respect to such Borrower pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders
may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent agrees to provide any Borrower with official copies of the Register upon reasonable request.
(4)Acceptance of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
(5)Participations. Any Lender may, with the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), sell participations to one or more banks or other entities other than a Disqualified Lender (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to it); provided that, following any such sale of participations, the Participants shall hold the same percentage of Subcommitments, Loans and LC Exposure across all Borrowers (and the same percentage of Commitments as Subcommitments); provided further, that a Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such sale unless it shall object thereto by written notice to such Lender (with copy to the Administrative Agent) within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iv) consent of a Borrower shall not be required for (A) a participation to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower or (B) if such Participant does not have the right to receive any non-public information that may be provided pursuant to this Agreement and the Lender selling such participation agrees with the Borrowers at the time of the sale of such participation that it will not deliver any non-public information to such Participant. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15
and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section (subject to the requirements and limitations therein,
including the requirements under Sections 2.16(e), (f) and (g) (it being understood that the documentation required under these paragraphs shall be delivered to the participating Lender)). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the applicable Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section
2.19 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(d) as though it were a Lender hereunder. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Commitments, Subcommitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”) and shall not have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Subcommitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Subcommitments, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
(6)Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with
Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender and in the case of a Participant claiming exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, the applicable Lender shall provide the Borrowers with satisfactory evidence that the participation is in registered form and shall permit the Borrowers to review such register as reasonably needed for the Borrowers to comply with their respective obligations under applicable laws and regulations.

any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured, or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness of such Borrower.

The payment obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement shall not be discharged or satisfied by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to the Specified Currency and transfer to the Specified Place under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of the Specified Currency at the Specified Place due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with the Second Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered.

respect of any such sum due from such Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which such Borrower or any other member of its Obligor Group is a party (in this Section called an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment,
be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due from such Borrower hereunder in the Second Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer to the Specified Place the Specified Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so adjudged to be due; and such Borrower hereby, severally and not jointly with any other Borrower, and as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the Specified Currency, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due from such Borrower to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency hereunder exceeds the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased and transferred.

(3)each Non-Surviving Obligor shall be released from all representations, warranties and covenants made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document and such Non-Surviving Obligor shall no longer be deemed a “Borrower”, a “Subsidiary Guarantor” or an “Obligor”, as applicable, for any purpose hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and, to the extent any provision of this Agreement (other than Sections 6.03(e)) or any other Loan Document would be violated or breached by such Non-Surviving Obligor (or any
non-compliance by such Non-Surviving Obligor with any such provision would result in a Default or Event of Default) as a result of the consummation of such Borrower Merger, such provision shall be deemed modified with respect to such Non-Surviving Obligor to the extent necessary to give effect to such Borrower Merger.

such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Subcommitments, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Subcommitments or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans, the
Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent fees, utilization fees, minimum usage fees, letter of credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.
SECTION 9.22. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
SECTION 9.23. Amendment and Restatement. On the Restatement Effective Date, the Existing Credit Facility shall be amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement, and the Existing Credit Facility shall thereafter be of no further force and effect. It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Existing Credit Facility be amended and restated hereunder so as to preserve the perfection and
priority of all Liens securing the “Secured Obligations” under the Loan Documents and that all “Secured Obligations” of each Borrower and the other members of its Obligor Group hereunder shall continue to be secured by Liens evidenced under the applicable
Security Documents, and that this Agreement does not constitute a novation or termination of the Indebtedness and obligations existing under the Existing Credit Facility. Unless specifically amended hereby, each of the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect and, from and after the Restatement Effective Date, all references to the “Credit Agreement” contained therein shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement.

Following receipt of an Advance Request, the Collateral Agent shall promptly distribute to the other parties hereto the allocation
USActive 31637433.35 -53-

In the event of any change to the wiring instructions of the Collateral Agent set forth on Schedule 1 to the Advance Request, the Collateral Agent shall provide written notice of such change to each Agent at least two (2) Business Days (or, with respect to any Advance requested in AUDs, three (3) Business Days’ notice) prior to any proposed Advance Date.

The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that any election by any Lender on one or more occasions to fund any Advance on any day prior to the full passage of the applicable sixty-one (61) day notice period set forth in Section 2.2(a)(x) shall not constitute or be deemed to be an amendment, waiver or other modification of the requirement for sixty-one (61) days’ notice prior to any Lender funding any Advance made in respect of an Advance Request made pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(x).
(a)Committed Lender’s Commitment. All Advances shall be made by the Facility Agent on behalf of the applicable Committed Lenders.

In connection with any permanent reduction of the Facility Amount under this Section 2.5(a), the Commitment of each Committed Lender shall automatically, and without any further action by any party, be reduced pro rata with all other Committed Lenders such that the sum of all Commitments will equal the newly reduced Facility Amount.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower may permanently reduce the Facility Amount at any time, provided that if such reduction occurs prior to the eighteen-month anniversary of the Twelfth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay the applicable Prepayment Fee, to the Collateral Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders; provided that, if such reduction occurs after the twelve-month anniversary of the Twelfth Amendment Effective Date and any Lender has, prior to the date of such permanent reduction in whole or in part, declined an Extension Request, then no Prepayment Fee shall be owed to any such Lender that declined such Extension Request.

USActive 31637433.35 -57-
(a)In connection with the purchase of each Collateral Obligation and prior to such Collateral Obligation being purchased by the Borrower and included in the Collateral, the Facility Agent will assign (in its sole discretion) a Discount Factor for such Collateral Obligation.
(b)If, but only if, a Revaluation Event occurs with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Discount Factor of such Collateral Obligation may be amended by the Facility Agent, in its sole discretion, subject to the Investment Manager’s dispute rights set forth in this Section 2.7(b). The Facility Agent will provide written notice of the revised Discount Factor to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Investment Manager. The Collateral Agent shall forward a copy of such notice to each Agent. To the extent the Investment Manager has actual knowledge or, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Underlying Instruments, has received notice of any Revaluation Event with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Investment Manager shall give prompt notice thereof to the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent (but, in any event, not longer than two Business Days after it receives notice or gains actual knowledge thereof). The Collateral Agent shall forward a copy of such notice to each Agent. So long as (i) the then-current Leverage Multiple with respect to the Collateral Obligation subject to such Revaluation Event is no more than 2.00x higher than the related Original Leverage Multiple, (ii) such Collateral Obligation was not previously subject to a Revaluation Event and (iii) such Collateral Obligation is not a Defaulted Collateral Obligation pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of the definition thereof, the Investment Manager may dispute the Discount Factor determined by the Facility Agent and at the expense of the Borrower shall retain an Approved Valuation Firm to determine the Discount Factor no later than sixty (60) days after the date of such initial determination by the Facility Agent (any such determination not to exceed the least of (x) the Purchase Price paid by the Borrower for such Collateral Obligation, (y) the outstanding Principal Balance of such Collateral Obligation and (z) any Discount Factor or haircut (including due to synthetic tranching) that the Facility Agent assigned pursuant to Section 2.7(a) or otherwise in the related Approval Notice). If the Facility Agent disputes the Discount Factor determined by the Borrower’s Approved Valuation Firm in good faith based on its reasonable judgment, the Facility Agent may at the expense of the Borrower elect to retain a different Approved Valuation Firm to determine the Discount Factor in accordance with the Valuation Standard. In either case, the Discount Factor determined by the Facility Agent shall apply during the process of any such dispute. Any determination by any Approved Valuation Firm of the Discount Factor after a Revaluation Event shall be re-calculated every six (6) months after the date of such initial determination until the Borrower provides notice pursuant to clause (d) below that such Revaluation Event is no longer continuing. If any additional Revaluation Event occurs with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Discount Factor of such Collateral Obligation may be amended by the Facility Agent, in its sole discretion and there shall be no right to dispute such determination. In the event more than one Discount Factor has been determined by Approved Valuation Firms for any Collateral Obligation in accordance with this clause (b), the Discount Factor for such Collateral Obligation shall be recalculated by the Facility Agent as the average of the valuations provided by all such Approved Valuation Firms (such determination not to exceed the least of (x) the Purchase Price paid by the Borrower for such Collateral Obligation, (y) the outstanding Principal Balance of such Collateral Obligation and (z) any Discount
USActive 31637433.35 -58-
Factor or haircut (including due to synthetic tranching) that the Facility Agent assigned pursuant to Section 2.7(a) or otherwise in the related Approval Notice).
(c)The Facility Agent will provide written notice of each revised Discount Factor to the Borrower, the Investment Manager, each Agent and the Collateral Agent.

(D)if a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such
USActive 31637433.35 -63-
Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Facility Agent to (x) comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or (y) determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.3(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.3(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 4.3(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(g)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.3 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Facility Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.

ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS
SECTION VIII.1.Accounts. (a) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrower shall establish each Account in the name of the Borrower and each Account shall be a segregated, non-interest bearing trust account established with the Securities Intermediary, who shall forward funds from the Collection Account to the Collateral Agent for application by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.3 and the applicable Monthly Report. If at any time a
USActive 31637433.35 -80-
Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge that any Account ceases to be an Eligible Account (with notice to the Investment Manager, the Facility Agent and each Agent), then the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to transfer such account to another institution such that such account shall meet the requirements of an Eligible Account.
Except as set forth below, amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account may be withdrawn by the Borrower or at the direction of the Investment Manager (i) to fund any draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Variable Funding Asset, or (ii) to make a deposit into the Collections Account as Principal Collections if, after giving effect to such withdrawal, the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account in each Eligible Currency is equal to or greater than the Aggregate Unfunded Amount.
Following the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to forward any draw request made by an Obligor under a Variable Funding Asset, along with wiring instructions for the applicable Obligor, to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Facility Agent and each Agent) along with an instruction to the Collateral Custodian to withdraw the applicable amount from the Unfunded Exposure Account and a certification that the conditions to fund such draw are satisfied, and the Collateral Custodian shall fund such draw request in accordance with such instructions from the Investment Manager.
Following the end of the Revolving Period, if the Borrower shall receive any Principal Collections from an Obligor with respect to a Variable Funding Asset and, as of the date of such receipt (and after taking into account such repayment), the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account in each Eligible Currency is less than the Aggregate Unfunded Amount (the amount of such shortfall, in each case, the “Unfunded Exposure Shortfall”), the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to direct the Collateral Custodian to and the Collateral Custodian shall deposit into the Unfunded Exposure Account in each Eligible Currency an amount of such Principal Collections equal to the lesser of (a) the aggregate amount of such Principal Collections and (b) the Unfunded Exposure Shortfall.
(a)All amounts held in any Account shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, be invested by the Collateral Custodian, as directed by the Investment Manager in writing (or, if the Investment Manager fails to provide such direction, such amounts shall remain uninvested), in Permitted Investments that mature (i) with respect to the Collection Account, not later than one Business Day prior to the Distribution Date for the Collection Period to which such amounts relate and (ii) with respect to the Unfunded Exposure Account, on the immediately following Business Day. Any such written direction shall certify that any such investment is authorized by this Section 8.1. Investments in Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Collateral Custodian, and, except as specifically required below, such investments shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. If any amounts are needed for disbursement from the Collection Account and sufficient uninvested funds are not available therein to make such disbursement, the Collateral Custodian shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount of the
USActive 31637433.35 -81-
investments in such account to make such disbursement in accordance with and upon the written direction of the Investment Manager or, if the Investment Manager shall fail to give such direction, the Facility Agent. The Collateral Custodian shall, upon written request, provide the Facility Agent with all information in its possession regarding transfer into and out of the Collection Account (including, but not limited to, the identity of the counterparty making or receiving such transfer). In no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian be liable for the selection of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Investment Manager or the Facility Agent, as applicable, to timely provide investment instruction to the Collateral Custodian. The Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian and their respective Affiliates shall be permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral Agent’s or the Collateral Custodian’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments, and (iii) effecting transactions in certain investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to this Agreement.
(b)Neither the Borrower nor the Investment Manager shall have any rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in the Collection Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in Section 8.1(a), Section 8.1(b), Section 8.2, or Section 8.3(b).
Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Collateral Agent shall have sole Control (within the meaning of the UCC) over each Account and each such investment and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment, if any, shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent or its agent, together with each document of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Collateral Agent in a manner that complies with this Section 8.1. All interest, dividends, gains upon sale and other income from, or earnings on, investments of funds in the Accounts shall be deposited or transferred to the Collection Account and distributed pursuant to Section 8.3(a).
(c)The Equityholder may, from time to time in its sole discretion (x) deposit amounts into the Principal Collection Account and/or (y) transfer Eligible Collateral Obligations as equity contributions to the Borrower. All such amounts will be included in each applicable compliance calculation under this Agreement, including, without limitation, calculation of the Borrowing Base and the Minimum Equity Condition.
SECTION VIII.2.Excluded Amounts. The Borrower may cause the Investment Manager to direct the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary to withdraw from the applicable Account and pay to the Person entitled thereto any amounts credited thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Investment Manager has, prior to such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent a report setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent, which report shall include a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting such request and designate a date for the payment of such reimbursement, which date shall not be earlier than two (2) Business Days following delivery of such notice.

(c)Without limiting any of the other provisions hereof, if at any time the Borrower shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in loan receivables to any prospective lender or other transferee, the Borrower shall give to such prospective lender or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored from archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Collateral shall indicate clearly that such Collateral is subject to a first priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

If the Facility Agent shall resign as Facility Agent under this Agreement, then the Majority Lenders shall appoint a successor agent, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Facility Agent, and the term “Facility Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its acceptance of such appointment, and the former Facility Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Facility Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Facility Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. In addition, prior to any assignment or participation by DBNY of any interest in its Commitment which, in either case, after giving effect to such assignment or participation would result in DBNY holding (unparticipated) less than 25% of the Facility Amount, the Required Lenders shall be permitted to appoint a new Facility Agent with the consent of the Investment Manager (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Any Agent may resign as Agent upon ten days’ notice to the Lenders in its Lender Group and the Facility Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) with such resignation becoming effective upon a successor agent succeeding to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent pursuant to this Section 14.8. If an Agent shall resign as Agent under this Agreement, then Lenders in its Lender Group holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group shall appoint a successor agent for such Lender Group. After any Note Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Note Agent under this Agreement. No resignation of any Note Agent shall become effective until a successor Note Agent shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of such Note Agent hereunder; provided, that in the event a successor Note Agent is not appointed within 60 days after such notice of its resignation is given as permitted by this Section 14.8, the applicable Note Agent may petition a court for its removal.

SECTION XIV.10.Borrower Procedural Review. The Facility Agent shall, at the Borrower’s expense, retain Protiviti, Inc. (or another nationally recognized audit firm acceptable to the Facility Agent in its sole discretion) to conduct and complete a procedural review of the Collateral Obligations in compliance with the standards set forth on Exhibit B hereto (as such Exhibit B may be amended from time to time as the Facility Agent and Borrower (in the sole discretion of each) may agree) once every twelve-month period at the request of the Facility Agent.

(d)All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of any Note in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be the valid obligations of the Borrower, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement, as the Note(s) surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

SECTION XV.6.Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes.

(d)The provisions of this Section 15.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of a mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note.

(a) At any time and from time to time, each Lender may, in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time grant participations in all or a portion of its Note and/or its interest in the Advances and other payments due to it under this Agreement to any Person (each, a “Participant”). Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) any such participation will not alter or affect such Lender’s direct obligations hereunder, and (B) none of the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Facility Agent, any Agent, any Lender, the Collateral Agent nor the Investment Manager shall have any obligation to have any communication or relationship with any Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.3 and Section 5.1 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.3(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.3(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Article XV; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 17.16 as if it were an assignee under this Article XV; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent that such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any Applicable Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 17.16(b) with respect to any Participant. To the
USActive 31637433.35 -132-
extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 17.1 as though it were a Lender.
(a)Notwithstanding anything in Section 15.9(a) to the contrary, each Lender may pledge its interest in the Advances and the Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral in accordance with Applicable Law without the prior written consent of any Person.
(b)Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the obligations under the Transaction Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any obligations under any Transaction Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Facility Agent (in its capacity as Facility Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
SECTION XV.10.Reallocation of Advances. Any reallocation of Advances among Committed Lenders pursuant to an assignment executed by such Committed Lender and its assignee(s) and delivered pursuant to Article XV shall be wired by the applicable purchasing Lender(s) to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the wiring instructions for the Principal Collection Account provided by the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent shall only release such funds at the direction of the Facility Agent and upon receipt of an executed assignment, as applicable.

This Section 16.1 shall not apply to Taxes, but shall be subject to Section 16.4.
Indemnification under this Section 16.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of any Indemnified Party and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.
SECTION XVI.2.[Reserved].
SECTION XVI.3.Contribution. If for any reason (other than the exclusions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1) the indemnification provided above in Section 16.1 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Borrower agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
SECTION XVI.4.Net After-Tax Basis. Indemnification under Section 16.1 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any Tax consequences, on a net after-Tax basis (including, for example, taking into account the deductibility of an applicable underlying damage, cost or expense) to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder (or of the incurrence of such applicable underlying damage, cost or expense), including the effect of such Tax or refund on the amount of Tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party.
ARTICLE XVII
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION XVII.1.No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Agent, any Indemnified Party or any Affected Person to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower during the existence of a Facility Termination Event, to the fullest extent permitted
USActive 31637433.35 -134-
by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by it to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower to the amounts owed by the Borrower under this Agreement, to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Agent, any Affected Person, any Indemnified Party or any Lender or their respective successors and assigns.
SECTION XVII.2.Amendments, Waivers. (a) This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or modified nor may any provision hereof be waived except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 17.2.

(b)The Facility Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or performance related to Alternate Base Rate, any Applicable Interest Rate or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Facility Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Facility Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service so long as the rate (or component thereof) used by the Facility Agent in connection therewith is consistent with the such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

USActive 31637433.35 -140-
assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
