To the extent the Transferor elects to convey Collateral Obligations in exchange for a capitation contribution to the U.S. Retention Holder, any cash paid in connection with such capital contribution shall be made as a distribution with respect to the equity held by the Transferor in the U.S. Retention Holder.

(b) [Reserved].

The consideration for the transfer of the Initial Conveyed Collateral from the U.S. Retention Holder to the Issuer shall consist of cash paid by the Issuer to the U.S. Retention Holder on the Closing Date and/or the issuance by the Issuer to the U.S. Retention Holder of the Class D Notes and the Subordinated Notes, and to the extent that the cash so paid on the Closing Date and/or the fair market value of the Class D Notes and Subordinated Notes so issued to the U.S. Retention Holder on the Closing Date is less than

6

DOCPROPERTY DOCXDOCID DMS=IManage Format=<<LIB>>.<<NUM>>.<<VER>> \* MERGEFORMAT BUSINESS.32498585.3

the purchase price relating to such transfer, the difference shall be deemed a capital contribution from the U.S. Retention Holder to the Issuer on the Closing Date.

(d) Subsequent Transfers. Each of the Transferor, the U.S. Retention Holder and the Issuer agrees and acknowledges that (i) the U.S. Retention Holder may, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, acquire Additional Collateral Obligations and related Assets with respect thereto (the “Additional Conveyed Collateral”) from the Transferor and the Issuer may, as permitted under the Indenture and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, acquire the Additional Conveyed Collateral from the U.S. Retention Holder, and (ii) the Issuer may acquire from the U.S. Retention Holder, the U.S. Retention Holder may acquire from the Transferor, as permitted under the Indenture and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Substitute Collateral Obligations and any related Assets as set forth in Section 2.5 and the Indenture with respect thereto (the “Substitute Conveyed Collateral” and, together with the Additional Conveyed Collateral, the “Subsequent Conveyed Collateral”), in each case pursuant to a Subsequent Transfer Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, duly executed by each of the Transferor, the U.S. Retention Holder and the Issuer (each such agreement, a “Subsequent Transfer Agreement”). The parties hereto agree that each such Subsequent Transfer Agreement will be deemed to become part of this Agreement as of the date of its execution (each such date, a “Cut-Off Date”) without further amendment hereof, provided that any sale of Subsequent Conveyed Collateral shall be effective as of the Settlement Date specified in such Subsequent Transfer Agreement. The purchase price paid by the U.S. Retention Holder for any Subsequent Conveyed Collateral shall be an amount equal to the U.S. Retention Holder Purchase Price with respect thereto and the purchase price paid by the Issuer for any Subsequent Conveyed Collateral shall be an amount equal to the Issuer Purchase Price with respect thereto.

(e) Each of the Transferor, the U.S. Retention Holder and the Issuer agrees that (i) the representations, warranties and covenants of the Transferor and the U.S. Retention Holder set forth herein will run to and be for the benefit of the U.S. Retention Holder, the Issuer and the Trustee, as applicable, and (ii) either the Issuer or the Trustee may enforce, directly without joinder of the U.S. Retention Holder, the repurchase obligations of the Transferor with respect to breaches of such representations, warranties and covenants as set forth herein. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties is a third party beneficiary of such representations, warranties and covenants. By its signature below, the Trustee hereby acknowledges such rights granted to it hereunder.

(f) Each of the Transferor, the U.S. Retention Holder and the Issuer intends and agrees that (i) the transfer of the Conveyed Collateral by the Transferor to the U.S. Retention Holder pursuant to this Agreement, and the transfer of the Conveyed Collateral by the U.S. Retention Holder to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement is, in each and every case, intended to be an absolute sale, conveyance and transfer of ownership of the applicable Conveyed Collateral rather than the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing and (ii) such Conveyed Collateral shall not be part of the Transferor’s or the U.S. Retention Holder’s respective estate in the event of a filing of a bankruptcy petition or other action by or against such Person under any Insolvency Law.

For such purposes, this Agreement shall constitute (and hereby does constitute) a security agreement under the UCC, securing the repayment of the purchase price paid hereunder and the obligations or interests represented by the Notes, in the order and priorities specified in, and subject to the other terms and conditions of, this Agreement and the Indenture, together with such other obligations or interests as may arise hereunder and thereunder in favor of the parties hereto and thereto.

(g) If any such transfer of Conveyed Collateral by the Transferor to the U.S. Retention Holder (whether Initial Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Subsequent Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(d)) is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing, the U.S. Retention Holder may, to secure the U.S. Retention Holder’s own obligations under this Agreement (to the extent that the transfer of Conveyed Collateral by the U.S. Retention Holder to the Issuer hereunder is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing), repledge and reassign to the Issuer (and the Issuer may further repledge and reassign to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties) (i) all or a portion of the Conveyed Collateral pledged to the U.S. Retention Holder by the Transferor and with respect to which the U.S. Retention Holder has not released its security interest at the time of such pledge and assignment and (ii) all proceeds thereof. Such repledge and reassignment may be made with or without a repledge and reassignment by the U.S. Retention Holder of its rights under any agreement with the Transferor, and without further notice to or acknowledgement from the Transferor. The Transferor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of setoff), against the U.S. Retention Holder or any assignee relating to such repledge and reassignment in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Transferor and the U.S. Retention Holder shall file or shall cause to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement and UCC-3 financing statement amendments, as necessary, naming the Transferor as debtor, the U.S. Retention Holder as secured party, the Issuer as assignee and the Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as re-assignee listing all of the Conveyed Collateral pledged hereunder as collateral thereunder.

(h) [Reserved]

(i) If any such transfer of Conveyed Collateral by the U.S. Retention Holder to the Issuer (whether Initial Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(c) or Subsequent Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(d)) is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing, the Issuer may, to secure the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture, repledge and reassign to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties (i) all or a portion of the Conveyed Collateral pledged to the Issuer by the U.S. Retention Holder and with respect to which the Issuer has not released its security interest at the time of such pledge and assignment and (ii) all proceeds thereof. Such repledge and reassignment may be made with or without a repledge and reassignment by the Issuer of its rights under any agreement with the U.S. Retention Holder, and without further notice to or acknowledgment from the U.S. Retention Holder. The U.S. Retention Holder hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of setoff), against the Issuer or any assignee relating to such repledge or reassignment in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The

8

DOCPROPERTY DOCXDOCID DMS=IManage Format=<<LIB>>.<<NUM>>.<<VER>> \* MERGEFORMAT BUSINESS.32498585.3

Issuer and the U.S. Retention Holder shall file or shall cause to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement and UCC-3 financing statement amendments, as necessary, naming the U.S. Retention Holder as debtor, the Issuer as secured party and the Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties as assignee, listing all of the Conveyed Collateral pledged hereunder as collateral thereunder.

(j) To the extent that (i) the consideration received by the Transferor from the U.S. Retention Holder in exchange for any Conveyed Collateral and (ii) the consideration received by the U.S. Retention Holder from the Issuer for any Conveyed Collateral is less than the fair market value of such Conveyed Collateral, the difference between such fair market value and the consideration so received shall be deemed to be a capital contribution by the Transferor to the U.S. Retention Holder (in the case of clause (i) above and by the U.S. Retention Holder to the issuer in the case of clause (ii) above), made on the related Settlement Date with respect to such Conveyed Collateral. For all purposes of this Agreement, any contributed Conveyed Collateral shall be treated the same as the Conveyed Collateral sold for cash or other property.

12

endorsement) required to be executed and delivered in connection with (a) the acquisition of a Collateral Obligation as a lender at the closing thereof may be executed and delivered directly by the Issuer at the direction of the Transferor or of the U.S. Retention Holder or (b) the transfer of a Collateral Obligation in accordance with the terms of related Underlying Instruments may reflect that the Transferor or the U.S. Retention Holder (or any affiliate thereof or any third party from whom the Transferor or the U.S. Retention Holder, as applicable, may purchase a Collateral Obligation) is assigning such Collateral Obligation directly to the Issuer.

(viii) None of the Underlying Notes that constitute or evidence the Conveyed Collateral has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Issuer or in blank or to the Trustee (or if any marks or notations, the Underlying Note has an unbroken chain of endorsements from the prior holder(s) thereof, if any, evidenced in the chain of endorsements in blank or to the Trustee, subject to Section 2.5).

All authorizations, licenses, permits, certificates, franchises, consents, approvals and undertakings which are required to be obtained by the Issuer under any applicable law which are material to (i) the conduct of its business, (ii) the ownership, use, operation or maintenance of its properties or (iii) the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under or in connection with the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, have been received and all such authorizations, licenses, permits, certificates, franchises, consents, approvals and undertakings are in full force and effect.

(f) Litigation. There are no legal, governmental or regulatory proceedings pending to which the Issuer is a party or to which any of its property is subject, which if determined adversely to the Issuer would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the performance by the Issuer of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, and to the best of its knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated.

27

DOCPROPERTY DOCXDOCID DMS=IManage Format=<<LIB>>.<<NUM>>.<<VER>> \* MERGEFORMAT BUSINESS.32498585.3

the Person claiming indemnification; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that the Transferor repurchases any loan from the U.S. Retention Holder such repurchase shall constitute the sole recourse to the Transferor for any breach of the representations or warranties set forth in Section 3.2. An Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Transferor if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement, and the Transferor shall assume (with the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) the defense and any settlement of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim. The parties agree that the provisions of this Section 6.1 shall not be interpreted to provide recourse to the Transferor against loss by reason of the bankruptcy, insolvency or lack of creditworthiness of an Obligor or issuer with respect to a Collateral Obligation, and the Transferor does not hereby agree to maintain the solvency of the U.S. Retention Holder or of the Issuer. The Transferor shall have no liability for making indemnification hereunder to the extent any such indemnification constitutes recourse for uncollectible or uncollected amounts payable under any Collateral Obligation.

Section 6.2. Liabilities to Obligors.

Except with respect to the funding commitment assumed by the Issuer with respect to any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or Revolving Collateral Obligation and customary obligations assumed by lenders in syndicated loans relating to indemnification of agents, workout expenses, and other reimbursable expenses for the preservation of collateral, the Transferor hereby acknowledges and agrees that no obligation or liability of the Transferor to any Obligor under any of the Collateral Obligations is intended to be assumed by the U.S. Retention Holder, the Issuer, the Trustee or the Noteholders under or as a result of this Agreement, any Subsequent Transfer Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and under the other Transaction Documents, and the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties is expressly named as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement for purposes of this Section 6.2.

Section 6.3. Operation of Indemnities.

If the Transferor has made any indemnity payments to any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VI and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any amounts from others in connection with the same matter or matters that gave rise to such indemnity payments, such Indemnified Party will repay such amounts collected to the Transferor up to and including the amount of such indemnity payments.

Section 6.4. Limitation on Liability.

The Transferor shall be liable under this Agreement only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Transferor under this Agreement. The Transferor and any trustee, beneficial owner, member, manager, director, officer, employee or agent of the Transferor may rely in good faith on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.

reason of the U.S. Retention Holder’s or the Issuer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence (except errors in judgment) in the performance of its respective duties hereunder, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder. The Transferor shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.

ARTICLE VII
OPTIONAL REPURCHASES

Section 7.1. Optional Repurchases.

In addition to the right to substitute for any Collateral Obligations that become subject to a Substitution Event, the Transferor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase from the U.S. Retention Holder and cause the U.S. Retention Holder to repurchase from the Issuer and convey to the Transferor any such Collateral Obligation subject to the Repurchase and Substitution Limit and the applicable provisions set forth in Sections 12.3 and 12.4 of the Indenture with the consent of the Collateral Manager (so long as MidCap Financial Investment Corporation is the Collateral Manager). In the event of such a repurchase, the Transferor shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount for such Collateral Obligation (or applicable portion thereof) as of the date of such repurchase (with the amount of the fair market value representing the outstanding principal balance of the repurchased Collateral Obligation being deposited into the Principal Collection Subaccount and the amount of the Transfer Deposit Amount representing accrued interest being deposited into the Interest Collection Subaccount, regardless of whether such amounts are deemed to be capital contributions). The Transferor, the U.S. Retention Holder and the Issuer and, at the written direction of the Issuer, the Trustee, shall execute and deliver such instruments, consents or other documents and perform all acts reasonably requested by the Transferor or by the Collateral Manager in order to effect the transfer and release of any of the Issuer’s and the U.S. Retention Holder’s interests in the Collateral Obligations (together with the Assets related thereto) that are being repurchased and the release thereof from the lien of the Indenture and from any security interests therein granted pursuant to this Agreement. To the extent any cash or other property received by the Issuer from the U.S. Retention Holder in connection with such a repurchase exceeds the fair market value of the repurchased Collateral Obligation, such excess shall be deemed a capital contribution from the U.S. Retention Holder to the Issuer, and to the extent any cash or other property received by the U.S. Retention Holder from the Transferor in connection with such a repurchase exceeds the fair market value of the repurchased Collateral Obligation, such excess shall be deemed a capital contribution from the Transferor to the U.S. Retention Holder.

Section 7.2. Reassignment of Substituted or Repurchased Collateral Obligations.

Upon (a) receipt by the Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account of the Transfer Deposit Amount, in the case of any repurchased Collateral Obligation or (b) upon the Settlement Date related to a Substitute Collateral Obligation described in Section 2.5, the Issuer hereby assigns to the U.S. Retention Holder, the U.S. Retention Holder hereby assigns to the Transferor all of the Issuer’s (or U.S. Retention Holder’s) right, title and interest in the Collateral Obligation being repurchased or substituted (together with the Assets related thereto) without recourse,

29

DOCPROPERTY DOCXDOCID DMS=IManage Format=<<LIB>>.<<NUM>>.<<VER>> \* MERGEFORMAT BUSINESS.32498585.3

representation or warranty. Such reassigned Collateral Obligation (together with the Assets related thereto) shall no longer thereafter be deemed a part of the Assets and shall be deemed released from the security interests created by this Agreement.

Section 7.3. Repurchase and Substitution Limitations.

At all times, (i) the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Substitute Collateral Obligations owned by the Issuer at any time since the Closing Date plus (ii) the Aggregate Principal Balance related to all Collateral Obligations that have been repurchased by the Transferor hereunder pursuant to its right of optional repurchase or substitution since the Closing Date and not subsequently applied to purchase a Substitute Collateral Obligation may not exceed an amount equal to (x) 20% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance in the aggregate and (y) 10% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance in the case of Defaulted Obligations or Credit Risk Obligations repurchased following a determination by the Collateral Manager that such Collateral Obligation would with the passage of time become a Defaulted Obligation; provided that clause (ii) above shall not include (A) the Principal Balance related to any Collateral Obligation that is repurchased by the Transferor in connection with a proposed Specified Amendment to such Collateral Obligation so long as (x) the Transferor certifies in writing to the Collateral Manager and the Trustee that such purchase is, in the commercially reasonable business judgment of the Transferor, necessary or advisable in connection with the restructuring of such Collateral Obligation and such restructuring is expected to result in a Specified Amendment to such Collateral Obligation, and (y) the Collateral Manager certifies in writing to the Trustee that the Collateral Manager either would not be permitted to or would not elect to enter into such Specified Amendment pursuant to the Collateral Manager Standard or any provision of the Indenture or the Collateral Management Agreement or (B) the purchase price of any Collateral Obligations or, for the avoidance of doubt, any Equity Securities sold by and at the option of the Issuer to the Transferor pursuant to Section 12.1(d) or Section 12.1(g) of the Indenture. The foregoing provisions in this paragraph constitute the “Repurchase and Substitution Limit”.
