PURCHASE

Section 2.1. Initial Purchase.

(a)            From time to time the Purchaser may request in writing, including, without limitation, by email (each such request, an “Initial Purchase Request”), that the Seller acquire one or more loans or otherwise become a lender under the Credit Agreement pursuant to which such loans are made.

(b)            Upon receipt by the Seller of such Initial Purchase Request together with any diligence, underwriting, investment committee and other similar materials prepared by Purchaser and its affiliates, the Seller shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to approve or reject the Initial Purchase Request and to request additional information in connection therewith. The Seller shall notify the Purchaser in writing, including without limitation, by email, of its approval or rejection of such Initial Purchase Request no later than the second (2^nd) business day succeeding the date on which it receives the Initial Purchase Request. If the Seller approves such Initial Purchase Request, the Seller shall purchase (each, an “Initial Purchase”) such loans (each such loan, a “Loan”) specified in such Initial Purchase Request on the terms set forth in the relevant Initial Purchase Request (the date on which the Seller acquires such Loan or otherwise becomes a lender of such Loan, an “Initial Purchase Date”); provided, that immediately after giving effect to such Initial Purchase, the sum of the aggregate Initial Principal Amount of each Loan and any unfunded commitments associated with any such Loan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, delayed draw term loans and the unfunded portion of any revolving lines of credit) shall not exceed the Commitment Amount in effect at such time.

Section 2.2. Forward Purchase.

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the satisfaction of the Capital Condition, on each Trade Date on or prior to the Facility End Date, the Seller and the Purchaser shall enter into a transaction pursuant to which the Seller shall sell, transfer, assign and otherwise convey to the Purchaser (or its designee), and the Purchaser shall purchase (or cause its designee to purchase) for an amount equal to the Purchase Price of the applicable Loan, all right, title and interest of the Seller (whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located) in and to such Loan and the Loan Rights in respect of such Loan (each, a “Forward Purchase”). The Seller and the Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to settle such Forward Purchase as soon as reasonably practicable and on such date as may be reasonably agreed by the Seller and the Purchaser (the date of each such settlement, a “Settlement Date”). Such Loan and such Loan Rights so sold pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) shall be transferred and assigned to the Purchaser (or its designee) free and clear of all Liens, except such Liens as shall be released concurrent with such Forward Purchase. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 2.2(b) hereof, the Purchaser shall purchase any and all Loans held by the Seller on the Facility End Date and the Trade Date for any such purchase shall be the Facility End Date.

(b)            Notwithstanding Section 2.2(a) hereof, the parties hereto agree that, on the Facility End Date, upon request of the Purchaser and with the consent of the Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), in lieu of Forward Purchases of all Loans held by the Seller as of such date, Parent shall sell and transfer to the Purchaser (or its designee), or cause to be sold and transferred to the Purchaser (or its designee), and the Purchaser shall purchase (or cause its designee to purchase), all of the membership interests of the Seller (the “Membership Interests”) for an amount and with a value equal to the aggregate Purchase Prices of all Loans held by the Seller as of such date which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be the economic equivalent of the applicable Forward Purchases (such transaction, the “Acquisition”). The Membership Interests so sold pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) shall be transferred to the Purchaser (or its designee) free and clear of all Liens, except such Liens as shall be released concurrent with the Acquisition. Upon the consummation of the Acquisition upon such terms as the Purchaser and the Parent deem satisfactory, the related Forward Purchases shall be deemed to have been made without further action on the part of any party.

Section 2.3. Principal, Interest and Fees. All Principal Proceeds, cash and fees accruing on any Loan (other than any fee constituting the OID) that is earned, accrued, paid or payable in respect of such Loan:

(a)            prior to the Trade Date of such Loan shall be solely for the Seller’s benefit and retained by the Seller; in the event that the Purchaser receives cash payment of any such amount, the Purchaser shall remit such amount to the Parent within two (2) business days of the receipt thereof; and

(b)            on or after the Trade Date of such Loan shall be solely for the Purchaser’s benefit and retained by the Purchaser; in the event that the Seller receives payment of any such amount, the Seller shall remit such amount to the Purchaser within two (2) business days of the receipt thereof.

Section 2.4. Capital Condition. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, the Purchaser shall not be required to enter into any transaction to purchase any Loan pursuant to, or be subject to any other obligations arising under, this Agreement unless and until the Trade Date in respect of such Loan has occurred and the Capital Condition has been satisfied.

Section 2.5. Seller’s Covenant. The Seller will not sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise dispose of any Loan without the prior written notice to the Purchaser other than to the Purchaser or any of its designees pursuant to Section 2.2(a) hereof. Both (a) without the prior written notice to the Purchaser and (b) except such Liens as shall be released concurrent with the Forward Purchase or Acquisition of such Loan, the Seller shall not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind with respect to any Loan.

Section 2.6. Voting of Loans. The Seller (i) shall not take (or refrain from taking) any action with respect to the right to vote on or consent to any waiver, amendment, modification or other action with respect to such Loan or any documentation relating thereto (collectively, “Voting Rights”) (other than any Sacred Voting Rights), except in accordance with the prior instructions of the Purchaser and (ii) shall take (or refrain from taking) any action with respect to the Voting Rights (other than any Sacred Voting Rights), except in accordance with the prior instructions of Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall be entitled to take (or refrain from taking) any action in its sole discretion in respect of any Sacred Voting Rights.

Section 2.7. Documentation, Reports, etc. The Seller shall (i) maintain an up-to-date ledger or “loan tape” of all Loans, setting forth such information in respect of each Loan as the amount actually funded by the Seller in cash in respect of such Loan, the OID in respect of such Loan and the Principal Repayment Amount in respect of such Loan, and (ii) provide, on the first business day of each calendar week, the Purchaser with access to, or a copy of, such ledger or “loan tape” and other records relating to the Loans as the Purchaser may reasonably request.
