If no valid e-mail address is provided, the Company will deliver documents to the mailing address indicated by the Subscriber unless otherwise notified in accordance with section 15 hereof. The Subscriber understands that the consent may be revoked or changed and that the Subscriber may change the Subscriber’s e-mail address to which notices are to be delivered at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked or changed consent or changed e-mail address as specified in section 15 hereof. Such revocation or change of consent or change of e-mail address must actually be received and acknowledged by the Company in order for it to be effective.

(e) Acceptance by the Company. If the Company accepts the Subscriber’s subscription (in whole or in part), a fully executed set of the Subscription Documents will be returned to the Subscriber. The Company may accept and countersign this Subscription Agreement (in whole or in part) at any time.

1. Subscription.

(a) The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that this subscription (i) is irrevocable on the part of the Subscriber, (ii) is conditioned upon acceptance by the Company and (iii) may be accepted or rejected in whole or in part by the Company in its sole discretion at any time. The Subscriber agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, the Company Memorandum, the Company’s bylaws, attached hereto as Appendix B (as amended, the “Bylaws”), the Company’s certificate of incorporation, attached hereto as Appendix C (as amended, the “Charter”), the Investment Advisory Agreement by and between First Eagle BDC Adviser, LLC (the “Adviser”) and the Company, attached hereto as Appendix D (as amended, the “Advisory Agreement”), the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement by and among the Adviser, First Eagle Private Credit, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) and the Company, attached hereto as Appendix E (as amended, the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”), the Administration Agreement by and between the Company and State Street Bank and Trust Company, our administrator (the “Administrator”), attached hereto as Appendix F (as amended, the “Administration Agreement”), the Administrative Support Agreement by and among the Company, First Eagle Investment Management, LLC and the Sub-Adviser, attached hereto as Appendix G (as amended, the “Administrative Support Agreement” and, together with the Company Memorandum, the Bylaws, the Charter, the Advisory Agreement, the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement, the “Operative Documents”) together with this Subscription Agreement.

(b) The Subscriber agrees to purchase Shares for an aggregate purchase price equal to its Capital Commitment, payable at such times and in such amounts as required by the Company, under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. The minimum Capital Commitment is $25 million, subject to the discretion of the Company to accept a lower amount.

(c) The Company has filed a registration statement on Form 10 (the “Registration Statement”) for the registration of its common stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Registration Statement is not the offering document pursuant to which the Company is conducting this offering of securities. Accordingly, the Subscriber should rely exclusively on information contained in the Company Memorandum, together with reports the Company may file under the Exchange Act from time to time, in making its investment decisions. The Company expects to enter into separate Subscription Agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements” and, together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Subscriber, the “Investors”), providing for the sale of Shares to the Other Investors. This Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements are separate agreements, and the sales of Shares to the undersigned and the Other Investors are to be separate sales.

2. Acceptance of Subscription; Closings.

This Subscription Agreement is made subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) The Company shall have the right to accept or reject the Subscriber’s subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason, including, without limitation, (i) the inability of the Subscriber to meet the standards imposed by Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or, (ii) the ineligibility of the Subscriber under applicable state or foreign securities laws or (iii) for any other reason.

(b) If the Subscriber’s subscription is accepted in part and rejected in part, the Subscriber will be so notified and the Subscriber agrees to deliver promptly upon the Company’s request a new signature page to this Subscription Agreement with respect to which the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment shall be such lesser amount as may be determined by the Company.

(c) If the Subscriber’s subscription is wholly rejected the executed copies of this Subscription Agreement shall be returned to the Subscriber.

(d) The closing of the subscription for the Shares by the Subscriber (the “Closing”), shall take place on the date that this Subscription Agreement (having been executed and fully completed by the Subscriber) is accepted in whole or in part by the Company (such date being the date filled in by the Company on the signature page hereto). On the date of the Company’s receipt of the Subscriber’s first Drawdown Purchase (as defined below), assuming the Closing has taken place, the Subscriber shall be registered as a stockholder of the Company (a “Stockholder”).

(e) The Subscriber agrees to provide any information reasonably requested by the Company to verify the accuracy of the representations contained herein, including the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Investor Questionnaire”).

(f) If the individual subscribing for Shares is investing assets on behalf of an individual retirement account (an “▇▇▇”), the individual who established the ▇▇▇ has signed the signature page of this Agreement and confirms that such individual (i) has directed the custodian or trustee of the ▇▇▇ to execute the acknowledgement on the signature page, which has been so executed, and (ii) has reviewed and hereby expressly certifies to the accuracy of the representations and warranties made herein with respect to the ▇▇▇ and the individual Subscriber.

(g) In the event that the Subscriber is permitted by the Company to make an additional capital commitment to purchase Shares on a date after its initial subscription has been accepted, the Subscriber shall be required to enter into an addendum to this Subscription Agreement covering such additional capital commitment.

3. Drawdowns.

(a) Subject to Section 3(d), the Subscriber agrees to purchase Shares for an aggregate purchase price equal to its Capital Commitment, payable at such times and in such amounts as required by the Company. The

Subscriber shall be required to fund a capital contribution to purchase Shares (a “Drawdown Purchase”) each time the Company delivers a notice (the “Drawdown Notice”) to the Subscriber. Drawdown Notices shall be delivered at least ten calendar days prior to the date on which payment will be due (or such shorter period as the Company and the Subscriber may agree) (each, a “Drawdown Date”) and shall set forth the amount, in U.S. dollars, of the aggregate purchase price (the “Drawdown Purchase Price”) to be paid by the Subscriber to purchase Shares on such Drawdown Date. Each purchase of Shares pursuant to a Drawdown Notice will be made at a per Share price equal to the then-current NAV per Share. “NAV per Share” equals the most recent quarterly net asset value per Share, as determined by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”). However, the NAV Per Share shall be subject to adjustment to the extent required by Section 23 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). No Investor shall be required to invest more than the total amount of its Capital Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference herein to a capital contribution being required or a Drawdown Notice being delivered by the Company shall be deemed to include such contribution being required or Drawdown Notice being delivered by a lender or agent in respect of any Subscription Facility as described in Section 5.

(b) Each Drawdown Purchase Price shall be payable in U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds per the wire transfer instructions set forth in the Drawdown Notice or otherwise delivered by the Company to the Subscriber in writing. Each Drawdown Notice shall set forth (i) the Drawdown Date, (ii) the aggregate amount of capital that is being drawn down from all Stockholders and (iii) the Subscriber’s share of capital drawn. The delivery of a Drawdown Notice to the Subscriber shall be the sole and exclusive condition to the Subscriber’s irrevocable and unconditional obligation to pay such Drawdown Purchase Price in the amount set forth therein, without any right of offset, reduction, counterclaim or defense.

(c) Concurrent with any payment of all or a portion of the Drawdown Purchase Price, the Company shall issue to the Subscriber a number of Shares equal to the amount of the Drawdown Purchase Price funded by the Subscriber on the applicable Drawdown Date divided by the NAV per Share as of such Drawdown Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not issue Shares for any portion of the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment that has not been paid to the Company and used to purchase Shares pursuant to one or more Drawdown Notices (the “Undrawn Capital Commitment”).

(d) Upon termination of the period (the “Commitment Period”) beginning on the Closing and ending on the earlier of (i) the completion of a Liquidity Event or (ii) the fifth anniversary of the Closing (subject to the Company’s right, in its discretion, to extend the period in this clause (ii) for up to two one-year periods by written notice to the Subscriber) (such fifth anniversary as may be so extended, the “Termination Date”), the Subscriber shall be released from any obligation to fund any portion of its Capital Commitment for which it has not received a Drawdown Notice prior to the termination of the Commitment Period, except, in the case of termination of the Commitment Period pursuant to clause (ii), to the extent necessary to (A) pay expenses of the Company, including management fees, amounts due or that may become due under any financing or similar obligations (including amounts that may be required to repay obligations under credit facilities), and indemnity obligations or (B) fund investments or obligations (including guarantees) of the Company in connection with any transaction for which there is a binding written agreement as of the end of the Commitment Period (including phased investments or contingent commitments). For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, a “Liquidity Event” shall mean any of the following: (1) an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock (“IPO”) or the listing of shares of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange (a “Listing”), (2) a sale of all or substantially all of Company’s assets to, or other liquidity event with, an entity for consideration of either cash and/or publicly listed securities of the acquirer, which potential acquirers may include other business development companies, including at the discretion of the Board, business development companies advised by affiliates of First Eagle Investment Management, LLC.

(e) The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company intends to request contributions from all Investors with an Undrawn Capital Commitment pro rata in accordance with the Capital Commitments of all investors with Undrawn Capital Commitments; provided that the Company shall retain the right, if determined by the Company in its sole discretion, to require the Subscriber (i) to fund a Drawdown Purchase Price that is more or less than its pro rata share or (ii) to fund a Drawdown Purchase Price (but not require Other Investors to do so), in either case, in order to accelerate the fulfillment of the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment if less than 20% of the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment remains undrawn, to seek to equalize the percentage of the Subscriber’s total Capital Commitment that has been contributed to the Company relative to the capital contributions of Other

Investors, or to avoid any of the Default Remedy Limitations (as defined below) or for other regulatory reasons. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company may, if determined by the Company in its sole discretion, from time to time require capital contributions from Other Investors and not the Subscriber. Accordingly, Drawdown Notices may be issued only to selected investors and Stockholders (including or excluding the Subscriber) from time to time and require a purchase of Shares by such investors in amounts determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

4. Pledging. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Subscriber specifically agrees and consents that the Company may, at any time, without further notice to or consent from the Subscriber (except to the extent otherwise provided in this Subscription Agreement), pledge, borrow capital, grant security over and, in connection therewith, transfer its right to draw down capital from the Subscriber pursuant to Section 3, and the Company’s right to receive the Drawdown Purchase Price (and any related rights of the Company), to lenders or other creditors of the Company, in connection with any indebtedness, guarantee or surety of the Company; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, any such grantee’s right to draw down capital shall be subject to the limitations on the Company’s right to draw down capital pursuant to Section 3.

5. Indebtedness. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Company may incur indebtedness at any time and from time to time, directly or indirectly through one or more subsidiaries (or series of subsidiaries) to borrow against the Subscriber’s Capital Commitments, finance investments or to warehouse loans, including without limitation, one or more credit facilities to finance its investments. Those facilities may be secured by an assignment by way of security, pledge, charge, mortgage or other security interest, as the case may be, of or in (A) the Undrawn Capital Commitments, the proceeds of Drawdown Purchases and the right to receive capital contributions from the Subscriber and Other Investors, (B) the Company’s right to make drawdowns on those Capital Commitments, deliver Drawdown Notices and receive the proceeds of Drawdown Purchases (including any powers of attorney or other delegation of the right to deliver Drawdown Notices), and/or (C) any deposit or other account into which the proceeds of Drawdown Purchases will be deposited, and all claims, rights and interests that the Company may have relating to or arising from clause (A), clause (B) or this clause (C) (including the right to exercise any remedies of the Company under or related to this Subscription Agreement in respect of any such Drawdown Notice or Drawdown Purchase), which may be granted to a lender or an agent for such a lender pursuant to any loan or security documentation entered into between the Company and any lender (any such facility described in this sentence, a “Subscription Facility”). The Subscriber may, upon request by the Company or the lender (if authorized to make such request under the relevant security documentation), be required to acknowledge the existence of a subscription credit facility, confirm the terms of the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment and the amount of its Unfunded Capital Commitment to the lender, to honor capital calls made by the lender or other credit party, to provide financial information reasonably requested by the lender and to execute other documents as may be reasonably requested in connection with obtaining such a facility. In connection with any such facility, the Subscriber agrees and acknowledges the following, for the benefit of the lenders: (1) it is and shall remain absolutely and unconditionally obligated to make Drawdown Purchases pursuant to Section 3 (including, without limitation, those required as a result of the failure of any Other Investor to advance funds with respect to a Drawdown Notice made pursuant to an agreement with the Other Investor), pro rata among all non-Defaulting Stockholders based on their respective Capital Commitments and not in excess of the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment, without defense, counterclaim or offset (including without limitation any defense of fraud or mistake, or any defense under Section 365 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any defense available under this Subscription Agreement), all of which will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be waived as against the lenders (provided, however, that the foregoing waiver of defenses shall be of no force or effect if and to the extent that the existence of the waiver would constitute or result in there being a prohibited transaction under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), (2) that all Drawdown Purchases made by the Subscriber in connection with a facility will be made to an account (in which such lenders may have a security interest under relevant security documentation) as directed by the Company or the lenders (if authorized to make such direction under the relevant security documentation), and (3) that any lender or credit party under a Subscription Facility is extending credit to the Company in reliance on such Subscriber’s funding its Capital Commitments as such lender’s primary source of repayment. For the avoidance of doubt, a Drawdown Purchase made by the Subscriber upon the request of a lender shall reduce the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment and be treated in all respects in the same manner as a Drawdown Purchase made upon the request of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees: (i) that any limitation with respect to any capital contribution shall not be

applicable with respect to any Drawdown Notice the purpose of which is to repay amounts due under a Subscription Facility, regardless of whether the related Drawdown Notice is issued by the Company or any lender or credit party under the Subscription Facility; and (ii) if such Subscriber is entitled to withdraw from the Company pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, prior to the effectiveness of such withdrawal, such Subscriber shall be obligated to fund its pro rata share of Drawdown Purchases necessary to cure any borrowing base default under the terms of any Subscription Facility as a direct or indirect result of such withdrawal.

6. Dividends; Dividend Reinvestment Plan. As described more fully in the Company Memorandum, the Company generally intends to distribute on a quarterly basis, out of assets legally available for distribution, substantially all of its available earnings in such amount so the Company will not have to pay corporate-level income tax, subject to the discretion of the Board. The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan, as may be amended (the “Dividend Reinvestment Plan”), pursuant to which, prior to an IPO or listing, the Company shall reinvest all cash distributions declared by the Board on behalf of any Stockholder, other than any Stockholder that has affirmatively elected to opt out of the Dividend Reinvestment Plan, in exchange for such Stockholder receiving a number of newly issued Shares equal to the quotient determined by dividing the amount of cash otherwise to be distributed to such Stockholder in connection with such distribution by NAV per Share as of the valuation date fixed by the Board for such distribution. The Subscriber may opt out of the Dividend Reinvestment Plan in the Investor Questionnaire. An election to opt-out or to opt-in to the Dividend Reinvestment Plan may be altered, subject to approval by the Company, by notifying the Company in writing. A change in election must be received by the Company at least ten calendar days prior to any distribution date; otherwise, such election shall be effective only with respect to any subsequent distributions. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that any distributions received by the Subscriber or reinvested by the Company on the Subscriber’s behalf pursuant to the Dividend Reinvestment Plan shall have no effect on the amount of the Subscriber’s Undrawn Capital Commitment.

7. Remedies Upon Drawdown Purchase Price Default. In the event that the Subscriber fails to pay all or any portion of the Drawdown Purchase Price due from the Subscriber on any Drawdown Date (such amount, together with the amount of the Subscriber’s Undrawn Capital Commitment, a “Defaulted Commitment”) and such default remains uncured for a period of ten days, then the Company shall be permitted to declare the Subscriber to be in default on its obligations under this Subscription Agreement (in such capacity, a “Defaulting Investor” and, collectively with any Other Investors declared to be in default, the “Defaulting Stockholders”) and shall be permitted to pursue one or any combination of the following remedies:

(a) Participation in Future Drawdowns. The Company may prohibit the Defaulting Investor from purchasing additional Shares on any future Drawdown Date.

(b) Forfeiture of Shares. One-third of the Shares then held by the Defaulting Investor may be automatically forfeited and transferred on the books of the Company to the Other Investors (other than any other Defaulting Stockholders), pro rata in accordance with their respective number of Shares held; provided that no Shares shall be transferred to any Other Investor pursuant to this Section 6(b) in the event that such transfer would (i) violate the Securities Act, the 1940 Act or any state (or other jurisdiction) securities or “blue sky” laws applicable to the Company or such transfer, (ii) constitute a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under Section 406 of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code, or (iii) cause all or any portion of the assets of the Company to constitute “plan assets” under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (the “Default Remedy Limitations”) (it being understood that this proviso shall operate only to the extent necessary to avoid the occurrence of the consequences contemplated herein and shall not prevent any Other Investor from receiving a partial allocation of its pro rata portion of Shares); and provided, further, that any Shares that have not been transferred to one or more Other Investors pursuant to the previous proviso shall be allocated among the participating Other Investors pro rata in accordance with their respective Invested Percentages. The mechanism described in this Section 7(b) is intended to operate as a liquidated damage provision since the damage to the Company and the Other Investors resulting from a default by the Defaulting Investor is both significant and not easily susceptible to precise quantification. By entry into this Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber agrees to this Section 7(b) and acknowledges that the automatic transfer of one-third of its Shares constitutes a reasonable liquidated damages remedy for any default of the Subscriber’s obligations to fund a Drawdown Purchase Price.

(c) Inability to Vote. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Defaulting Investor hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Company with full power of substitution, its true and lawful proxy to exercise all voting and other rights of such Defaulting Investor with respect to the Shares, at every annual, special or adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in every written consent in lieu of such meeting in exact proportion to the votes or consents cast by Stockholders other than Defaulting Stockholders or, in the absence of any such Stockholders, in the discretion of the proxy.

(d) Other Remedies. The Company may pursue any other remedies against the Defaulting Investor available to the Company at law or in equity. No course of dealing between the Company and any Defaulting Stockholder and no delay in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred in this Section 7 or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise shall operate as a waiver or otherwise prejudice any such right, power or remedy. In addition to the foregoing, the Company may in its discretion institute a lawsuit against the Defaulting Investor for specific performance of its obligation to pay any Drawdown Purchase Price and any other payments to be made by the Defaulting Investor pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and to collect any overdue amounts hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber agrees (i) to pay on demand all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the enforcement of this Subscription Agreement against the Subscriber sustained as a result of any default by the Subscriber and (ii) that any such payment shall not constitute payment of a Drawdown Purchase Price or reduce the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment.

The Subscriber agrees that this Section 7 is solely for the benefit of the Company and shall be interpreted by the Company against the Defaulting Investor in the discretion of the Company. The Subscriber further agrees that the Subscriber cannot and will not seek to enforce this Section 7 against the Company or any other investor in the Company.

8. Representations and Warranties of the Subscriber.

The Subscriber represents and warrants as follows:

(a) Private Placement.

(i) The Subscriber understands that the offering and sale of the Shares are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, applicable U.S. state securities laws and the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions by virtue of the private placement exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (including Regulation D promulgated thereunder), exemptions under applicable U.S. state securities laws and exemptions under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions, and the Subscriber agrees that any Shares acquired by the Subscriber may not be Transferred in any manner that would require the Company to register the Shares under the Securities Act, under any U.S. state securities laws or under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions. The Subscriber was offered the Shares through private negotiations, not through any general solicitation or general advertising.

(ii) The Subscriber understands that the Company requires each investor in the Company to be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act (“Accredited Investor”), and the Subscriber represents and warrants that it is an Accredited Investor.

(iii) The Subscriber understands that the offering and sale of the Shares in non-U.S. jurisdictions may be subject to additional restrictions and limitations and represents and warrants that it is acquiring its Shares in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and other legal requirements applicable to the Subscriber, including the legal requirements of jurisdictions in which the Subscriber is resident and in which such acquisition is being consummated. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the foregoing, if the Subscriber is a resident of any of the jurisdictions set forth in the Company Memorandum, the Subscriber represents, warrants and covenants as specified in the Company Memorandum hereto for such jurisdiction.

(iv) The Shares to be acquired hereunder are being acquired by the Subscriber for the Subscriber’s own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or distribution. The Subscriber shall not, directly or indirectly, Transfer (as defined below) all or any portion of such Shares (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge or charge of all or any part of such Shares) except in accordance with (i) the registration provisions of the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration provisions, (ii) any applicable U.S. federal or state or non-U.S. securities laws and (iii) the terms of this Subscription Agreement and the Charter. The Subscriber understands that it may be required to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Shares for a substantial period of time because, among other reasons, the offering and sale of the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, the Shares cannot be sold other than through a privately negotiated transaction unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. “Transfer” (or any derivative thereof) shall mean to sell, offer for sale, agree to sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, in any case whether directly or indirectly.

(b) The Subscriber is not subject to and is not aware of any facts that would cause such Subscriber to be subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications as described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act.

(c) The Subscriber has received, read carefully in its entirety, and understands the Company Memorandum. The Subscriber has consulted with its own attorney, accountant, investment adviser or other adviser with respect to the investments contemplated hereby and its suitability for the Subscriber, and the Subscriber understands and consents to the fees, risks and other considerations relating to the purchase of the Shares and an investment in the Company, including the fees outlined in the section titled “Management Agreements” of the Company Memorandum and the risks and other considerations set forth in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” in the Company Memorandum. The Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company, all such questions have been answered to the Subscriber’s full satisfaction, and the Subscriber has obtained any additional information concerning the Company sought by the Subscriber. The Subscriber acknowledges that no representations have been made to the Subscriber in connection with its investment in the Company, other than the information or materials relating to the offering and sale of the Shares furnished to the Subscriber (the “Offering Materials”).

(d) The Subscriber has substantial knowledge and experience in business and financial matters and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of a purchase of the Shares. The Subscriber understands that there can be no assurance that the Company will meet its investment objective or otherwise be able to successfully carry out its investment program.

(e) The Subscriber has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Company (including the possible loss of any such investment), has adequate means for providing for its current needs and has no current need for liquidity in connection with its purchase of the Shares.

(f) The purchase of the Shares by the Subscriber is consistent with the general investment objectives of the Subscriber.

(g) If the Subscriber is a natural person, the Subscriber’s domicile and principal residence are at the address shown on the signature page below. If the Subscriber is not a natural person, the Subscriber has its domicile, principal place of business, or principal office at the address shown on the signature page below. The Subscriber received the Offering Materials, the Operative Documents, and this Subscription Agreement at the address of the Subscriber on the signature page below.

(h) The Subscriber is not an entity (including a qualified retirement plan) in which a holder of an interest in the Subscriber may decide whether or how much to invest through the Subscriber in various investment vehicles, including the Company, unless the Subscriber has so notified the Company in writing.

If at any time the Subscriber holds Shares the Subscriber shall no longer be in compliance with the provisions of this Section 8(i), it shall promptly notify the Company.

(j) If the Subscriber is not a citizen of the United States, or a resident of or entity created under the laws of any state of the United States (any such citizen, resident or entity being hereinafter called a “Domestic Person”), the Subscriber is not purchasing the Shares on behalf of any Domestic Person, and the Subscriber has no present intention of becoming a Domestic Person.

(k) If the Subscriber is a natural person, the Subscriber is of legal age in its country or state of residence and has legal capacity to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement, the Charter to subscribe for and purchase the Shares hereunder.

The Subscriber’s purchase of the Shares and its execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (i) has been duly executed and delivered by the Subscriber, (ii) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subscriber (except (A) as limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, as from time to time in effect, (B) as limited by general principles of equity, and (C) as the enforcement of remedies rests in the discretion of any court), and (iii) does not result in the violation of, constitute a default under, or conflict with, any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, statute, writ, injunction, order, law, rule or regulation applicable to the Subscriber.

(l) The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, under the Charter, and the performance of the Subscriber’s obligations hereunder, under the Charter do not and will not conflict with, or result in any violation of or default under, (i) if the Subscriber is not a natural person, any provision of any certificate of formation, certificate of incorporation, charter, by-laws, memorandum and articles of association, trust agreement, partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement or other organizational or governing instrument applicable to the Subscriber, (ii) any agreement or other instrument to which the Subscriber is a party or by which the Subscriber or any of its properties are bound, or (iii) any permit, franchise, judgment, decree, statute, writ, injunction, order, law, rule or regulation applicable to the Subscriber or to its business or properties. In addition, the Subscriber represents that its power of attorney contained in this Subscription Agreement and to be exercised in connection with the Charter has been granted by the Subscriber, including as to the manner of any execution by the Subscriber, in compliance with all laws applicable to the Subscriber, including the laws of the state or jurisdiction in which the Subscriber executed this Subscription Agreement. The Subscriber has obtained all authorizations, consents, approvals and clearances of all courts, governmental agencies and authorities and such other persons, if any, required to permit the Subscriber to enter into this Subscription Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(m) The Subscriber understands that the Company intends to file or has filed an election to be treated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the 1940 Act and intends to elect or has elected to be treated as a “regulated investment company” within the meaning of Section 851 of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Pursuant to these elections, the Subscriber shall be required to furnish certain information to the Company as required under U.S. Treasury Regulation §1.852-6(a) and other regulations. If the Subscriber is unable or refuses to provide such information directly to the Company, the Subscriber understands that it shall be required to include additional information on its income tax return as provided in U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.852-7.

(n) The Subscriber: (i) is not registered or required to be registered as an “investment company” under the 1940 Act; (ii) has not elected to be regulated as a BDC 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 otherwise permitted to acquire and hold more than 3% of the outstanding voting securities of a BDC.

(o) ERISA Matters. If the Subscriber is or will be (x) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, that is subject to ERISA, (y) a “plan” described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or (z) an entity that is, or is deemed to be, using “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code to purchase or hold its investments (each of the foregoing, a “Plan”), the Subscriber has so indicated in, and has completed each applicable question in, the Investor Questionnaire, and the Subscriber represents, warrants and agrees that:

(i) the acquisition and the subsequent holding of Shares do not and will not constitute a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code;

(ii) the decision to acquire Shares was made by a “fiduciary” of the Plan, within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA or Section 4975(e)(3) of the Code (the “Plan Fiduciary”), that is independent of the Company, the Adviser and their respective employees, representatives and affiliates, is qualified to make investment decisions on behalf of the Plan and has authorized the Subscriber’s investment in the Company;

(iii) the Subscriber’s investment in Shares conforms in all respects to the documents governing the Plan and complies with all applicable requirements of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code;

(iv) the Plan Fiduciary has been informed about the fee structure of the Company, including the incentive fee component, and has concluded that such fees are reasonable and the investment in the Company otherwise constitutes a reasonable contract or arrangement, and the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that none of the Adviser or its employees, representatives or affiliates have any discretion, or are otherwise acting in a fiduciary capacity with respect to the Plan’s investment in the Company, whether pursuant to the provisions of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or otherwise, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Subscriber has not relied on, and is not relying on, any investment advice or recommendation of any such person with respect to the Plan’s investment in the Company;

(v) the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company has the authority to require the redemption, withdrawal or other cancellation of any Shares if it is determined that the continued holding of such Shares could result in the Company, the Adviser or the Administrator being subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code; and

(vi) without limiting the remedies in the event of a breach, the Subscriber agrees promptly to provide to the Company such information as the Company may from time to time reasonably request for purposes of determining whether the assets of the Company are “plan assets” within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and any other matters relating to ERISA or compliance with ERISA arising in connection with the Subscriber’s investment in the Company, or the operation or investments of the Company.

The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 8(o) shall be deemed repeated and reaffirmed on each day the Subscriber holds Shares. Without limiting the remedies available in the event of a breach, if at any time the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 8(o) shall cease to be true, including because there is a change in the Subscriber’s Plan status or the percentage of assets that constitute “plan assets” subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, the Subscriber shall promptly notify the Company in writing.

(p) The Subscriber has notified, or shall promptly notify, the Company if the Subscriber is or becomes a person that may be disqualified from participating in the Company’s acquisition of securities sold in a public offering under Rules 5130 and 5131 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, as in effect from time to time.

(q) If the Subscriber is a partnership or any other entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. income tax purposes, a grantor trust within the meaning of Sections 671-679 of the Code, or a S corporation within the meaning of Section 1361 of the Code, the Subscriber represents that at no time during the term of the Company will 65% or more of the value of any beneficial owner’s direct or indirect interest in the Subscriber be attributable to the Subscriber’s interest in the Company. Except as otherwise disclosed to the Company in writing, the Subscriber is not disregarded as an entity separate from its owner within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3.

(r) None of the information concerning the Subscriber nor any statement, certification, representation or warranty made by the Subscriber in this Subscription Agreement or in any document required to be provided under this Subscription Agreement (including the Investor Questionnaire and any Form W-9 or the relevant Forms W-8 (W-8BEN, W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8EXP), as applicable,) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading.

(s) The Subscriber agrees to provide such information and execute and deliver such documents as the Company may reasonably request to verify the accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties herein or to comply with any law or regulation to which the Company, the Adviser, the Administrator or a portfolio company of the Company may be subject.

(t) The Subscriber, if an individual, has read carefully in its entirety, and understands and agrees with, the Company’s Privacy Policies and Practices attached hereto as Appendix H.

(u) The Subscriber agrees that the foregoing certifications, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall survive the acceptance of this Subscription Agreement, each Drawdown Date and the dissolution of the Company, without limitation as to time. Without limiting the foregoing, the Subscriber agrees to give the Company prompt written notice in the event that any statement, certification, representation or warranty of the Subscriber contained in this Section 8 or any information provided by the Subscriber herein or in any document required to be provided under this Subscription Agreement (including the Investor Questionnaire and any Form W-9 or Forms W-8 (W-8BEN, W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8EXP), as applicable,) ceases to be true at any time following the date hereof.

9. Representations and Warranties of the Company.

The Company represents and warrants as follows (in reliance, where applicable, on the representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement and the representations and warranties of the Other Investors):

(a) The Company is duly incorporated validly existing as a corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has all requisite corporate power to conduct the business in which it proposes to engage as described in the Company Memorandum.

(b) No consent, approval or authorization of, or filing or registration with, any governmental authority on the part of the Company is required for the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement by it, or the issuance of Shares as contemplated thereby, except for any consents, approvals, authorizations or filings which are required under any applicable securities laws (federal, state or foreign) and which have been made or obtained prior to the Closing or are made or obtained hereafter within the time prescribed by law. All action required to be taken by the Company as a condition to the issuance and sale of the Shares will have been taken at or before the Closing. The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement by the Company will not result in the violation of, constitute a default under, or conflict with, any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company. Upon execution and delivery by the Company, this Subscription Agreement (i) will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and (ii) will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, except (A) as limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, as from time to time in effect, (B) as limited by general principles of equity, and (C) as the enforcement of remedies rests in the discretion of any court.

10. Additional Limitations on Transfer of Capital Commitments and Shares.

(a) General Restrictions on Transfer.

(i) The Subscriber may not Transfer its Capital Commitment. Prior to any Liquidity Event, the Subscriber may not Transfer any of its Shares unless the Transfer is made in accordance with applicable securities laws and is otherwise in compliance with the transfer restrictions set forth in Appendix I. Each transferee must agree to be bound by these restrictions and all other obligations as an investor in the Company. Following a Liquidity Event, the Subscriber shall be restricted from selling or disposing of its Shares by applicable securities laws, contractually by a lock-up agreement with the underwriters of an IPO or other similar institutions, acting on the Company’s behalf, in connection with a Listing, and pursuant to the terms of this Subscription Agreement.

(ii) The Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber is aware and understands that there are other substantial restrictions on the transferability of its Capital Commitment or Shares under this Subscription Agreement, the Charter and applicable law, including the fact that (A) there is no established market for the Shares and it is possible that no public market for the Shares will develop; (B) the Shares are not currently, and Stockholders have no rights to require that the Shares be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of the various states or any non-U.S. jurisdiction and therefore cannot be Transferred unless subsequently registered or unless an exemption from such registration is available; and (C) the Subscriber may have to hold the Shares herein subscribed for and bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely, and it may not be possible for the Subscriber to liquidate its investment in the Company.

(b) Liquidity Event Restrictions. The Subscriber agrees that for a period beginning on the date of the Liquidity Event (which with respect to an IPO, shall mean the pricing of the IPO and, with respect to a Listing, shall mean the initial trade date of a Listing) and continuing to and including at least 180 calendar days thereafter, the Subscriber shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, (A) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the SEC in respect of, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder with respect to, any Shares of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock, or warrants or other rights to purchase Shares, (B) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares, or warrants or other rights to purchase Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (C) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (A) or (B) (collectively, the “Prohibited Activities”). The Subscriber agrees that, in the case of a Liquidity Event involving underwriters or other similar institutions, any further specific terms of the foregoing restriction on Prohibited Activities, including the exact time periods of such restriction, and any other limitations on the sale of Shares in connection with or following a Liquidity Event will be agreed prior to the Liquidity Event between the Board and the Adviser, acting on behalf of the Stockholders, and the underwriters or other similar institutions, acting on the Company’s behalf, and that the Subscriber will be bound by any such terms and limitations.

11. Compliance with Specific Laws.

(a) Anti-Money Laundering.

(i) Neither the Subscriber, nor any of its affiliates or beneficial owners nor any person for whom the Subscriber is acting as agent or nominee, (A) appears on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”), the list of Foreign Sanctions Evaders maintained by OFAC, or any other lists of restricted parties maintained by the U.S. Government, nor are they otherwise a party with which any entity is prohibited to deal under the laws of the United States, (B) is a senior foreign political figure or any

immediate family member or close associate of a senior foreign political figure or (C) is identified as a terrorist organization on any other relevant lists maintained by governmental authorities. The Subscriber further represents and warrants that the monies used to fund the investment in the Shares are not derived from, invested for the benefit of, or related in any way to, and that no monies or dividends received as a result of the investment in the Shares will be provided to or for the benefit of, the governments of, or persons within, any country (1) under a U.S. embargo enforced by OFAC, (2) that has been designated as a “non-cooperative country or territory” by the U.S. Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering or (3) that has been designated by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury as a “primary money laundering concern.” The Subscriber further represents and warrants that the Subscriber: (x) has conducted thorough due diligence with respect to all of its beneficial owners, (y) has established the identities of all beneficial owners and the source of each of the beneficial owner’s funds and (z) will retain evidence of any such identities, any such source of funds and any such due diligence. The Subscriber further represents and warrants that the Subscriber does not know or have any reason to suspect that (I) the monies used to fund the Subscriber’s investment in the Shares have been or will be derived from or related to any illegal activities, including money laundering activities and all capital contributions by the Subscriber were not, and will not be, directly or indirectly derived from activities that may contravene federal, state or international laws and regulations, including anti-money laundering laws and regulations, and (II) the proceeds from the Subscriber’s investment in the Shares will be used to finance any illegal activities. Subscriber represents that all evidence of identity provided is genuine.

(ii) The Subscriber shall provide to the Company at any time such information as the Company determines to be necessary or appropriate (A) to comply with the anti-money laundering laws, rules and regulations of any applicable jurisdiction and (B) to respond to requests for information concerning the identity of such Subscriber from any governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or financial institution in connection with its anti-money laundering compliance procedures (which, notwithstanding anything in Section 18 to the contrary, may then be disclosed to such persons), or to update such information. Such information may include, with respect to any Subscriber that is a natural person, the Subscriber’s full legal name, date of birth, address and identification number. The Subscriber hereby represents that the Subscriber is in compliance with all such laws. Failure to provide such information upon request may result in the compulsory redemption of the Subscriber’s Shares.

(iii) To comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations, all payments and contributions by the Subscriber to the Company, and all payments and distributions to the Subscriber, shall only be made in the Subscriber’s name and to and from a bank account of a bank based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States or that is regulated in and either based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States and that is not a “foreign shell bank” within the meaning of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. § 5311 et seq.), as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, as such regulations may be amended.

(b) Affirmation. The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 11 shall be deemed repeated and reaffirmed by the Subscriber to the Company as of each date that the Subscriber is required to make a Drawdown Purchase or other payment to, or receives dividends or other distributions from (even if such dividend from the Company is reinvested pursuant to the Dividend Reinvestment Plan), the Company. If at any time during the term of the Company, the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 11 cease to be true, the Subscriber shall promptly so notify the Company in writing.

(c) Remedies for Failure to Comply with Section 11. The Subscriber understands and agrees that the Company may not accept any amounts from the Subscriber if it cannot make the representations set forth in this Section 11, and may require the compulsory Transfer of the Subscriber’s Shares. In addition, the Subscriber understands and agrees that, in addition to the foregoing remedial measures in order to comply with governmental regulations or if the Company determines in its sole discretion that such action is in the best interests of the Company, the Company may “freeze the account” of the Subscriber, either by prohibiting additional investments in the Company by the Subscriber, refusing to process a distribution to the Subscriber or suspending other rights the Subscriber may have against the Company under this Subscription Agreement or under the Charter and the Bylaws. The Company or the Adviser may be required to report such action or confidential information relating to the Subscriber (including disclosing the Subscriber’s identity) to regulatory authorities.

12. FATCA Compliance. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that, in order to comply with the provisions of the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) and avoid the imposition of U.S. federal withholding tax, the Company and the Administrator may from time to time require further information or documentation from the Subscriber and, if and to the extent required under FATCA, the Subscriber’s direct and indirect beneficial owners (if any), relating to or establishing such person’s identity, residence (or jurisdiction of formation) and income tax status, and may provide or disclose such information and documentation to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The Subscriber agrees that it shall provide such information and documentation concerning itself and its beneficial owners (if any), as and when requested by the Company or the Administrator sufficient for the Company, as applicable, to comply with its obligations under FATCA. The Subscriber acknowledges that, if the Subscriber does not provide the information and documentation requested by the Company, the Company may, at its sole option and in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, immediately redeem the Subscriber’s Shares or prohibit the Subscriber from purchasing additional Shares or participating in additional investments in the Company. The Subscriber hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all withholding taxes, interest, penalties and other losses or liabilities suffered by the Company on account of the Subscriber not providing all requested information and documentation in a timely manner. The Subscriber shall have no claim against the Company, the Adviser, the Administrator, or any of their respective affiliates for any form of damages or liability as a result of any of the aforementioned actions.

13. Subscriber Information.

The Company reserves the right to request such information as is necessary to verify the identity of the Subscriber or as may reasonably be requested by the Company in connection with its operations, including such information requested by the Company in connection with entering into any borrowing or other financing arrangement. The Subscriber shall promptly on demand provide such information and execute and deliver such documents as the Company may request to verify the accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties or as required for the Company’s operations. In the event of delay or failure by the Subscriber to produce any information required for verification purposes, or if otherwise required by law or regulation, the Company may refuse to accept the subscription or may refuse to process a distribution until proper information has been provided.

The Subscriber agrees further that the Company shall be held harmless and indemnified against any loss, claim, cost, damage or expense arising as a result of a failure to process any subscription or distribution if such information as has been required by the Company has not been provided by the Subscriber or which the Company may suffer as a result of any violations of law committed by the Subscriber.

14. Applicable Law.

This Subscription Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

15. Notices.

All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently given if personally delivered or sent by postage prepaid, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight courier or by facsimile transmission with transmission confirmed, addressed as follows: (i) if intended for the Company, to the Company’s principal office and (ii) if intended for any Subscriber, to the address of such Subscriber set forth on the signature page hereto, or to such other address as the Company or such Subscriber, as applicable, may designate by written notice. Notices shall be deemed to have been given (i) when personally delivered (ii), if mailed, on the date on which received, or (iii) if sent by overnight courier or facsimile transmission, on the date on which received; provided, that notices of a change of address shall not be deemed given until the actual receipt thereof. The provisions of this Section 15 shall not prohibit the giving of written notice in any other manner; any such written notice shall be deemed given only when actually received.

16. Power of Attorney.

By executing this Subscription Agreement the Subscriber hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Company with full power of substitution, its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, in its name, place and stead for its use and benefit, to approve, execute, acknowledge, swear to, file and record:

(a) any and all filings required to be made by the Subscriber under the Exchange Act with respect to any of the Company’s securities that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Subscriber under the Exchange Act;

(b) all certificates and other instruments deemed advisable by the Company in order for the Company to enter into any borrowing or other financing arrangement and to grant any pledge or other security interest, including over the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment or Shares, in connection therewith;

(c) all certificates and other instruments deemed advisable by the Company to comply with the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and applicable law or regulation to permit the Company to become or to continue as a BDC;

(d) all conveyances and other instruments necessary or appropriate to effect the dissolution and liquidation of the Company; and

(e) all other instruments or papers not inconsistent with the terms of this Subscription Agreement that may be required by law to be filed on behalf of the Company

(f) any amendment or modification to any of the foregoing and all other certificates, instruments and documents which said attorney-in-fact determines in its sole discretion are necessary or desirable to effectuate the provisions of this Subscription Agreement or any Other Subscription Agreements and the purposes of the Company.

It is expressly acknowledged by the Subscriber that the foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall survive death or legal incapacity of the Subscriber, and is irrevocable. Such power of attorney may be exercised by said attorney-in-fact either by signing separately as attorney-in-fact for each of the Investors or by listing all the Investors with a single signature as attorney-in-fact for all of them. Such power of attorney shall survive the termination or dissolution of the Subscriber or the assignment of its interest in the Company; provided, however, that such power of attorney will so survive only to the extent necessary to enable said attorney-in-fact to effect substitution (if approved by the Company) of the Subscriber’s successor-in-interest. Assignee hereby waives any and all defenses which may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the actions of said attorney-in-fact taken in good faith under such power of attorney.

This power of attorney does not supersede the terms of this Subscription Agreement or any written agreement between the Company and the Subscriber nor is it to be used to deprive the Subscriber of its rights as a Stockholder, and is intended only to provide a simplified system for execution of documents. The Subscriber shall execute and deliver to the Company, within five days after the receipt of a request therefor, such confirmatory powers of attorney as the Company may request.

17. Effect of Representations; Survival; Indemnity

The Subscriber understands that the offer and sale of the Shares is being made in reliance on specific exemptions from requirements of federal and state securities laws and that the Company and the controlling persons thereof, will rely on the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in determining the applicability of such exemptions. The Subscriber hereby confirms that all such representations and warranties will remain true and complete on the date of acceptance by the Company of the Subscriber’s subscription hereunder.

This Subscription Agreement, including all representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained herein, shall survive the sale of the Shares to the Subscriber, and the admission of the Subscriber as a Stockholder of the Company.

To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Adviser, the Administrator and their respective affiliates, and each partner, member, shareholder, officer, director, employee and agent thereof (the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any loss, damage or liability due to or arising out of a breach of any representation, warranty or agreement of the Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement (including the Investor Questionnaire) or in any other document provided by the Subscriber to the Company or in any agreement executed by the Subscriber in connection with the Subscriber’s investment in Shares.

18. Confidentiality. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Company Memorandum, and other information relating to the Company have been submitted to the Subscriber on a confidential basis for use solely in connection with the Subscriber’s consideration of the purchase of Shares. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Company Memorandum and other information relating to the Company (the “Confidential Information”) have been submitted to the Subscriber on a confidential basis for use solely in connection with the Subscriber’s consideration of the purchase of Shares. In addition, Confidential Information includes non-public information regarding the Adviser, First Eagle Investment Management LLC, First Eagle Private Credit LLC and any other investment vehicles whose investment adviser is the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser. Subscriber agrees to comply with all laws, including securities laws, concerning Confidential Information, and Subscriber agrees that it shall not trade in the securities of any issuer about which Subscriber receives material non-public information under this Subscription Agreement or in its capacity as a holder of Shares and shall refrain from such trading until any material non-public information no longer constitutes material non-public information. The Subscriber agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent may be withheld at the discretion of the Company), the Subscriber shall not (a) reproduce the Company Memorandum or any other Confidential Information, in whole or in part, or (b) disclose the Company Memorandum or any other Confidential Information to any person who is not an officer or employee of the Subscriber who is involved in its investments, or partner (general or limited) or affiliate of the Subscriber (it being understood and agreed that if the Subscriber is a pooled investment fund, it shall only be permitted to disclose the Company Memorandum or other Confidential Information if the Subscriber has required its investors to enter into confidentiality undertakings no less onerous than the provisions of this Section 18 and the Subscriber remains liable for any breach of this Section 18 by its investors), except to the extent (i) such information is in the public domain (other than as a result of any action or omission of the Subscriber or any person to whom the Subscriber has disclosed such information) or (ii) such information is required by applicable law or regulation to be disclosed, in which case the Subscriber shall first notify the Company of such requirement (unless such notification is prohibited by law) so that the Company may pursue a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the terms of this Section 18, and if a protective order or other appropriate remedy is not obtained, or if the Company waives compliance with the terms of this Section 18, then the Subscriber shall disclose only that portion of Confidential Information that the Subscriber is advised by counsel is legally required to be disclosed and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of such information disclosed, including by requesting that confidential treatment be accorded such information. The Subscriber further agrees to return the Company Memorandum and other Confidential Information upon the Company’s request therefor. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not be sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 18 by the Subscriber and that, in addition to any other remedies available to the Company in respect of any such breach, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach.

19. No Joint Liability Among the Company, the Adviser, and the Administrator.

The Adviser shall not be liable for the fulfillment of any obligation or for the accuracy of any representation of the Company under or in connection with this Subscription Agreement. The Administrator shall not be liable for the fulfillment of any obligation or for the accuracy of any representation of the Company under or in connection with this Subscription Agreement. There shall be no joint and several liability of the Company, the Adviser and the Administrator for any obligation under or in connection with this Subscription Agreement.

20. Independent Nature of Subscribers’ Obligations and Rights.

The obligations of the Subscriber hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by the Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Stockholders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Stockholders are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

22. Severability

If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Subscription Agreement, or any application thereof, shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and all other applications thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

APPENDIX H
NOTIFICATION OF PRIVACY POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Maintaining the confidentiality of the personal information of current and prospective investors is one of the Company and the Adviser’s highest priorities. This notice sets forth the type of personal information collected, how that information is used, and how personal information is protected.

HOW AND WHY WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

1. Collection.

The Company will collect nonpublic personal information about its stockholders in the ordinary course of establishing and servicing their accounts. Nonpublic personal information means personally identifiable financial information that is not publicly available and any list, description, or other grouping of stockholders that is derived using such information. For example, it includes a stockholder’s address, social security number, account balance, income, investment activity and bank account information.

2. Use of Personal Information

Personal information is collected and maintained by the Company and the Adviser so that they may fulfill their respective legal and regulatory requirements. Access to nonpublic personal information about stockholders of the Company is restricted to directors and officers (or equivalents) and employees of the Company, the Adviser and their respective affiliates with a legitimate business need for the information. The Company, the Adviser and their respective affiliates maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards designed to protect the nonpublic personal information of the Company’s stockholders.

APPENDIX I
TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

This Appendix I is attached to and made a part of the Subscription Agreement with the Subscriber. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Subscription Agreement.

Prior to an IPO or Listing, no Transfer of the Subscriber’s Capital Commitment or all or any portion of the Subscriber’s Shares may be made without (i) registration of the Transfer on the Company books and (ii) the prior written consent of the Company. In any event, the consent of the Company may be withheld (i) if the creditworthiness of the proposed transferee, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, is not sufficient to satisfy all obligations under the Subscription Agreement or (ii) unless, in the opinion of counsel (who may be counsel for the Company) satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, such Transfer would not violate the Securities Act or any state (or other jurisdiction) securities or “blue sky” laws applicable to the Company or the Shares to be Transferred.

In addition, prior to an IPO or a Listing sufficient to cause us to treat our Common Stock as a “publicly-offered security” for purposes of ERISA, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent our assets from being deemed to constitute “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. We may reject any transfer of our shares of Common Stock if such transfer could (1) result in our assets being considered to be “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (2) constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any laws similar to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

Any person that acquires all or any portion of the Shares of the Subscriber in a Transfer permitted under this Appendix I shall be obligated to pay to the Company the appropriate portion of any amounts thereafter becoming due in respect of the Capital Commitment committed to be made by its predecessor in interest. The Subscriber agrees that, notwithstanding the Transfer of all or any fraction of its Shares, as between it and the Company it shall remain liable for its Capital Commitment prior to the time, if any, when the purchaser, assignee or transferee of such Shares, or fraction thereof, becomes a holder of such Shares.

The Company shall not recognize for any purpose any purported Transfer of all or any portion of the Shares and shall be entitled to treat the transferor of Shares as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions or dividends made in good faith to it, unless the Company shall have given its prior written consent thereto and there shall have been filed with the Company a dated notice of such Transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, executed and acknowledged by both the seller, assignor or transferor and the purchaser, assignee or transferee, and such notice (a) contains the acceptance by the purchaser, assignee or transferee of all of the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement and its agreement to be bound thereby, and (b) represents that such Transfer was made in accordance with this Subscription Agreement, the provisions of the Company Memorandum and all applicable laws and regulations applicable to the transferee and the transferor.
