SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

New Mountain Guardian IV Income Fund, L.L.C.

1633 Broadway, 48th Floor

New York, New York 10019

Ladies and Gentlemen:

1.    Subscription.The person or entity for whose account the units of limited liability company interests (“Units”) are being purchased (the “Investor”) subscribes for and agrees to purchase Units in New Mountain Guardian IV Income Fund, L.L.C. (the “Fund”) with a Capital Commitment (as defined in the Limited Liability Company Agreement referred to below) in the amount set forth on the signature page hereto. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that this subscription (i) is irrevocable on the part of the Investor, (ii) is conditioned upon acceptance by or on behalf of the Fund and (iii) may be accepted or rejected in whole or in part by the Fund in its sole discretion. The Investor agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Fund (as amended from time to time, the “Limited Liability Company Agreement”) in the final form provided to the Investor. Capitalized terms not defined herein are used as defined in the Limited Liability Company Agreement. To the extent anything in this Subscription Agreement is inconsistent with the terms of the Limited Liability Company Agreement, the Limited Liability Company Agreement shall control.

2.    Representations and Warranties of the Investor. To induce the Fund to accept this subscription, the Investor represents, warrants and/or covenants as follows:

(a)    The Investor has been furnished and has carefully read the Private Placement Memorandum relating to the Fund (as amended, restated and/or supplemented through the closing date of the Investor’s subscription for Units, the “Memorandum”), the Limited Liability Company Agreement and, if the Investor is a natural person, a current copy of the New Mountain Privacy Policy attached hereto as Annex 3. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Units, is able to bear the risks of an investment in the Units and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, a purchase of Units, including the matters set forth under the caption “Certain Risk Factors and Potential Conflicts of Interest” in the Memorandum.

(b)    The Units to be acquired pursuant to this Subscription Agreement are being acquired by the Investor for the Investor’s own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or distribution.

(c)    The Investor understands that the Fund intends to file or has filed (i) an election to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act and (ii) an election to be treated as a regulated investment company within the meaning of Section 851 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); pursuant to those elections, the Investor will be required to furnish certain information to the Fund as required under Treasury Regulations § 1.852-6(a) and other

1

regulations. If the Investor is unable or refuses to provide such information directly to the Fund, the Investor understands that it will be required to include additional information on its income tax return as provided in Treasury Regulations § 1.852-7. Upon the request of the Fund, the Investor may be required to promptly deliver a properly completed and executed IRS Form 972 with respect to the Fund. The Fund intends to file a registration statement on Form 10 (the “Form 10 Registration Statement”) for its Units with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Form 10 Registration Statement is not the offering document pursuant to which the Fund is conducting this offering and may not include all information regarding the Fund contained in the Memorandum; accordingly, Investors should rely on information contained in the Memorandum and Subscription Documents in making their investment decisions. The Investor acknowledges it may be required to make filings with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, as applicable.

(d)    The Investor understands that the Units have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the securities laws of any state thereof or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, nor is such registration contemplated. The Investor understands and agrees further that the Units must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and these laws or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and these laws covering the sale of Units is available. Even if such an exemption is available, the assignability and transferability of the Units will be governed by the Limited Liability Company Agreement, which imposes substantial restrictions on transfer. The Investor understands that legends stating that the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act and these laws, and setting out or referring to the restrictions on the transferability and resale of the Units, will be placed on all documents evidencing the Units. The Investor represents and warrants that, unless separately acknowledged in writing by the Fund on the date of acceptance of this Subscription Agreement, there are no governmental orders, permissions, consents, approvals or authorizations that are required to be obtained and/or observed, and no registrations or other filings (other than a notice of exempt offering on Form D under the Securities Act or other similar filings under any applicable U.S. state “blue sky” law or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction) are required to be made (in each case whether regarding registration as a lobbyist, investment advisor and/or other status or category, or otherwise (including restrictions on gifts, political contributions or other activities) for the Fund, New Mountain Finance Advisers BDC, L.L.C. (the “Adviser”) or their respective Affiliates or employees) in connection with the purchase of the Units by the Investor and/or the Investor’s status as a Unitholder of the Fund. The Investor’s overall commitment to the Fund and other investments that are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the Investor’s net worth, and the Investor has no need for immediate liquidity in the Investor’s investment in Units.

(e)    To the full satisfaction of the Investor, the Investor has been furnished any materials the Investor has requested relating to the Fund, the offering of

2

Units or any statement made in the Memorandum, and the Investor has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of representatives of the Fund concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of any representations or information set forth in the Memorandum.

(f)    Other than as set forth in the Memorandum, the Limited Liability Company Agreement and any separate agreement in writing with the Fund or the Adviser executed in conjunction with the Investor’s subscription for Units, the Investor is not relying upon any other information (including, without limitation, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, and any seminars or meetings whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or advertising), representation or warranty by the Fund, the Adviser, any Affiliate of the foregoing or any agent of them, written or otherwise, in determining to invest in the Fund and the Investor understands that the Memorandum is not intended to convey tax, legal, investment or accounting advice. The Investor has consulted to the extent deemed appropriate by the Investor with the Investor’s own advisers as to the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and related matters concerning an investment in Units, and on that basis understands the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and related consequences of an investment in the Units, and believes that an investment in the Units is suitable and appropriate for the Investor.

(g)    If the Investor is not a natural person (i) the Investor has the power and authority to enter into this Subscription Agreement, the Limited Liability Company Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Units, and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and (ii) the person signing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of the Investor has been duly authorized to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement, the Limited Liability Company Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Units. If the Investor is a natural person, the Investor has all requisite legal capacity to acquire and hold the Units and to execute, deliver and comply with the terms of each of the documents required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Units. The Investor has provided the Fund with a copy of any policy or regulation applicable to the Investor or the Investor’s service providers (including with respect to political contributions, third-party payments or the use of placement agents) with which the Adviser and/or the Fund will be expected to comply in connection with the Investor’s investment in the Fund. Neither (A) the execution and delivery by the Investor of, and compliance by the Investor with, this Subscription Agreement, the Limited Liability Company Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Units nor (B) except as disclosed to the Fund in writing prior to the submission hereof, the payment of a fee to any placement agent, solicitor or finder in connection with the Investor’s subscription for Units, violates or represents a breach of, or constitutes a default under, any instruments governing the

3

Investor, any law, regulation, order or policy, or any agreement to which the Investor is a party or by which the Investor is bound, including any policy or regulation of the type referred to in the previous sentence. This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed by the Investor and constitutes, and the Limited Liability Company Agreement, when the Investor is admitted as a Member, will constitute, a valid and legally binding agreement of the Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms thereof (subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, by equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing).

(h)    The Investor: (i) is not registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act; (ii) has not elected to be regulated as a business development company under the 1940 Act; and (iii) either (A) is not relying on the exception from the definition of “investment company” under the 1940 Act set forth in Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) thereunder or (B) is permitted to acquire and hold more than 3% of the outstanding voting securities of a business development company regulated under the 1940 Act.

(i)    If the Investor is, or is acting (directly or indirectly) on behalf of, a Plan1 that is subject to Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), Section 4975 of the Code, or any provisions of any other U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state, local or other laws or regulations that are similar to those provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, “Other Plan Laws”):

(i) (a) neither the Adviser, the Fund or any of their respective Affiliates (collectively referred to as the “New Mountain Entities”) has acted as the Plan’s fiduciary, or has been relied upon for any advice, with respect to the Plan’s decision to purchase or hold any Units and none of the New Mountain Entities shall at any time be relied upon as the Plan’s fiduciary with respect to any decision to purchase, continue to hold, transfer, withdraw, vote or provide any consent with respect to any Units; and

(A)    independent of the New Mountain Entities;

(B)    capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with respect to particular transactions and investment strategies;

(C)    a fiduciary (within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA and the regulations thereunder, Section 4975 of the Code, or as defined under applicable Other Plan Laws, as applicable), with respect to the Plan’s investment in the Fund and is responsible for exercising independent judgment in evaluating the Plan’s investment in the Fund; and

(D)    aware of and acknowledges that (I) none of the New Mountain Entities are undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the Plan’s investment in the Fund, (II) the New Mountain Entities have a financial interest in the Plan’s investment in the Fund on account of the fees and other compensation they expect to receive from the Fund and their other relationships with the Fund, and (III) any such fees and other compensation received by a New Mountain Entity do not constitute fees or other compensation rendered for the provision of investment advice to the Plan;

(iii) the Plan’s decision to invest in the Fund and the acquisition of the Units contemplated thereby is in accordance with the terms of the Plan’s governing instruments and complies with all applicable requirements of ERISA, the Code and Other Plan Laws and does not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a similar violation under any applicable Other Plan Laws; and

(iv) if the Investor is (directly or indirectly) investing the assets of a Plan which is not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code but is subject to any other U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state, local or other laws or regulations that could cause the underlying assets of the Fund to be treated as assets of the Plan by virtue of its investment in the Fund and thereby subject the Fund and Adviser (or other Persons responsible for the operation of the Fund and/or investment of the Fund’s assets) to laws or regulations that are similar to the fiduciary responsibility or prohibited transaction provisions contained in Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”), the Fund’s assets will not constitute the assets of such Plan under the provisions of any applicable Similar Law.
