Article 3

EFFECTS OF THE MERGER

Section 3.1 Effects of the Merger.

(a) At the Effective Time and by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Terra REIT, Terra BDC or Merger Sub or the holders of any securities of Terra REIT, Terra BDC or Merger Sub:

(i) Except as provided in Section 3.1(a)(ii) and subject to Sections 3.1(b) and 3.1(d), each share of Terra BDC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive (upon the proper surrender of the certificate representing such share (“Certificate”) or, in the case of a Book-Entry Share, the proper surrender of such Book-Entry Share) (A) a number of shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio, to be issued in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such Certificate or Book Entry Share and (B) any cash, without interest, to be paid in lieu of any fractional share interests of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.1(d) (together, the “Merger Consideration”);

(ii) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a)(i) above, each share of Terra BDC Common Stock, if any, then held by any wholly owned Terra BDC Subsidiary, Terra REIT or any wholly owned Terra REIT Subsidiary shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be paid, nor shall any other payment or right inure or be made with respect thereto in connection with or as a consequence of the Merger; and

(iii) The membership interests of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain the issued and outstanding membership interests of the Surviving Entity and shall be unaffected by the Merger.

(b) Adjustment of the Exchange Ratio. Between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, if either of Terra BDC or Terra REIT should split, combine or otherwise reclassify either the Terra BDC Common Stock or the Terra REIT Common Stock or makes a dividend or other distribution in shares of the Terra BDC Common Stock or the Terra REIT Common Stock (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into Terra BDC Common Stock or Terra REIT Common Stock), or engages in a reorganization, recapitalization or exchange or other like change, then (without limiting any other rights of the Parties hereunder), the Exchange Ratio shall be ratably adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any such split, combination, reclassification, dividend, distribution, reorganization, exchange or change, and thereafter all references to the Exchange Ratio shall be deemed to be the Exchange Ratio as so adjusted.

(c) Transfer Books. From and after the Effective Time, the share transfer books of Terra BDC shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Terra BDC Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, Persons who held Terra BDC Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have rights with respect to such shares, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or by applicable Law. On or after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares of Terra BDC Common Stock presented to the Exchange Agent, Terra REIT or the Surviving Entity shall be exchanged for the Merger Consideration with respect to Terra BDC Common Stock formerly represented thereby.

(d) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares of Terra BDC Common Stock, and such fractional shares shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Terra REIT. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Terra BDC Common Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares of Terra BDC Common Stock delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount rounded to the nearest whole cent, determined by multiplying (i) the fraction of a share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by (ii) $14.38.

Section 3.2 Exchange Procedures; Exchange Agent; Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares.

(a) As soon as practicable prior to the Effective Time, Terra REIT will designate a nationally recognized bank, trust company or stockholder services company reasonably acceptable to Terra BDC to act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment and delivery of the Merger Consideration, as provided in Section 3.1(a)(i) and Section 3.1(d). Prior to the Effective Time, Terra REIT will enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent, in a form reasonably acceptable to Terra BDC (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”), setting forth the procedures to be used in accomplishing the deliveries and other actions contemplated by this Section 3.2.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Terra REIT shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the sole benefit of the holders of shares of Terra BDC Common Stock, certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) in exchange for the shares of Terra BDC Common Stock. After the Effective Time on the appropriate payment date, if applicable, Terra REIT shall provide or shall cause to be provided to the Exchange Agent any dividends or other distributions payable on such shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.2(e). Terra REIT shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 3.1(d). Such shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock, together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.1(d) and dividends or distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.2(e), are referred to herein as the “Exchange Fund.” Terra REIT shall cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make delivery of, the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter), Terra REIT shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing shares of Terra BDC Common Stock (i) a letter of transmittal (a “Letter of Transmittal”) in customary form as prepared by Terra REIT and reasonably acceptable to Terra BDC (which shall specify, among other things, that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of any Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or the transfer of Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the number of shares of Terra BDC Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry Share representing shares of Terra BDC Common Stock to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal or receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of transfer of a Book-Entry Share, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing shares of Terra BDC Common Stock shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) the number of whole shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock into which the Terra BDC Common Stock represented by the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall have been converted at the Effective Time, (ii) cash in lieu of any fractional share interest of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.1(d) and (iii) certain dividends and distributions in accordance with Section 3.2(e), if any, after the Exchange Agent’s receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or “agent’s message” or other evidence, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) so surrendered or the Book-Entry Share so transferred, as applicable, shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. Until surrendered or transferred as contemplated by this Section 3.2, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing shares of Terra BDC Common Stock shall be deemed, at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article 3. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

(e) No dividends or other distributions declared or made prior to or after the Effective Time with respect to Terra REIT Class B Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to any holder entitled by reason of the Merger to receive shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock until, and no cash payment in lieu of a fractional share interest of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 3.1(d) until, such holder shall have surrendered its Certificates or Book-Entry Share of Terra BDC Common Stock pursuant to this Section 3.2. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares of Terra BDC Common Stock, such holder shall be paid, in each case, without interest, (i) the amount of any dividends or other distributions theretofore paid with respect to the shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock represented by the Certificate or Book-Entry Shares of Terra BDC Common Stock surrendered by such holder and having a record date on or after the Effective Time and a payment date prior to such surrender and (ii) at the appropriate payment date or as promptly as practicable thereafter, the amount of any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such shares of Terra REIT Class B Common Stock and having a record date on or after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date on or after such surrender.

(f) In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Terra BDC Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of Terra BDC, it shall be a condition of payment that any Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered or transferred in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.2 shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or Book-Entry Share transferred, or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Terra REIT that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

(g) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Terra BDC Common Stock for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Terra REIT upon demand, and any former holders of Terra BDC Common Stock prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article 3 shall thereafter look only to Terra REIT for payment of their claims with respect thereto.

(h) None of Terra BDC, Terra REIT, the Surviving Entity, the Exchange Agent, or any employee, officer, director, agent or Affiliate of such entities, shall be liable to any Person in respect of the Merger Consideration if the Exchange Fund (or the appropriate portion thereof) has been delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any shares of Terra BDC Common Stock immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Terra REIT free and clear of any claims or interest of such holders or their successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.

Section 3.3 Withholding Rights. Each of Terra BDC, Terra REIT, the Surviving Entity, or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Terra BDC Common Stock, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payments under the Code or any other provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. Any such amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the applicable Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 3.4 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Terra REIT, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Terra REIT may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article 3.

Section 3.5 Dissenters Rights. No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 3.6 General Effects of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as set forth in this Agreement and as provided in the applicable provisions of the MGCL and DLLCA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Terra BDC and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Entity, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Terra BDC and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Entity.

(a) Terra BDC is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland and has the requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and, to the extent applicable, operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. Terra BDC is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, operated or leased by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect.

Each Terra BDC Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, operated or leased by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Section 4.1(c) of the Terra BDC Disclosure Letter sets forth a true and complete list of the Terra BDC Subsidiaries and their respective jurisdictions of incorporation or organization, as the case may be, the jurisdictions in which Terra BDC and the Terra BDC Subsidiaries are qualified or licensed to do business, and the type of and percentage of interest held, directly or indirectly, by Terra BDC in each Terra BDC Subsidiary, including a list of each Terra BDC Subsidiary that is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” within the meaning of Section 856(i)(2) of the Code (each a “Qualified REIT Subsidiary”) or a “taxable REIT subsidiary” within the meaning of Section 856(1) of the Code (each a “Taxable REIT Subsidiary”) and each Terra BDC Subsidiary that is an entity taxable as a corporation which is neither a Qualified REIT Subsidiary nor a Taxable REIT Subsidiary.

(d) Neither Terra BDC nor any Terra BDC Subsidiary directly or indirectly owns any equity interest in any Person (other than in the Terra BDC Subsidiaries).

(e) Terra BDC is in compliance with the terms of its Terra BDC Governing Documents in all material respects.

Section 4.2 Authority; Approval Required.

(a) Terra BDC has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and, subject to receipt of the Stockholder Approvals, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger.

As of their respective filing dates (or the date of their most recent amendment, supplement or modification, in each case, to the extent filed and publicly available prior to the date of this Agreement), the Terra BDC SEC Documents (i) complied, or with respect to Terra BDC SEC Documents filed after the date hereof, will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder, and (ii) did not, or with respect to Terra BDC SEC Documents filed after the date hereof, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

There are no internal investigations, any SEC inquiries or investigations or other governmental inquiries or investigations pending or, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, threatened, in each case regarding any accounting practices of Terra BDC.

(d) Since December 31, 2017, (A) Terra BDC has designed and maintained disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by Terra BDC in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to Terra BDC’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (B) to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting Terra BDC’s management to material information required to be included in Terra BDC’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act (if Terra REIT were required to file such reports). Terra BDC and Terra BDC Subsidiaries have designed and maintained a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurances (i) regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, (ii) that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (iii) that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements and to maintain asset accountability, (iv) that access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (v) that the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences and (vi) accounts, notes and other receivables and inventory are recorded accurately, and proper and adequate procedures are implemented to effect the collection thereof on a current and timely basis. Terra BDC has disclosed to Terra BDC’s auditors and audit committee (and made summaries of such disclosures available to Terra REIT) (1) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect in any material respect Terra BDC’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (2) any fraud, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in internal control over financial reporting.

(f) Neither Terra BDC nor any Terra BDC Subsidiary nor, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, any director, officer or Representative of Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary has (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee or (iii) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee, in each case, in violation in any material respect of any applicable Anti-Corruption Law. Neither Terra BDC nor any Terra BDC Subsidiary has received any written communication that alleges that Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary, or any of their respective Representatives, is, or may be, in violation of, or has, or may have, any liability under, any Anti-Corruption Law.

(g) Terra BDC has duly elected to be regulated as a BDC pursuant to the Investment Company Act and, until such time as the BDC Election Withdrawal becomes effective, such election has not been revoked or withdrawn and is in full force and effect. Terra BDC has written policies and procedures adopted pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the Investment Company Act that are reasonably designed to prevent material violations of the “Federal Securities Laws” (as such term is defined in Rule 38a-1(e)(1) under the Investment Company Act). There have been no “Material Compliance Matters” (as such term is defined in Rule 38a-1(e)(2) under the Investment Company Act) for Terra BDC, other than those that have been reported to the Terra BDC Board and satisfactorily remedied or are in the process of being remedied or those that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect. No “affiliated person” (as defined under the Investment Company Act) of Terra BDC or the Terra BDC Advisor has been subject to disqualification to serve in any capacity contemplated by the Investment Company Act for any investment company (including a BDC) under Sections 9(a) and 9(b) of the Investment Company Act, unless, in each case, such Person has received exemptive relief from the SEC with respect to any such disqualification. There is no material proceeding pending and served or, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, threatened that would result in any such disqualification. The Terra BDC Advisory Agreement has been duly approved and continued and at all times has been in compliance in all material respects with Section 15 of the Investment Company Act (to the extent applicable). As of the date of this Agreement, there have been no material changes to the amount of securities, Indebtedness and other financial instruments listed on the most recent Terra BDC SEC Documents, including any increase in the amount of securities, Indebtedness and other financial instruments owned by the Terra BDC or its Terra BDC Subsidiaries that are not treated as “qualifying assets” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act.

Section 4.8 Permits; Compliance with Law. Terra BDC and the Terra BDC Subsidiaries hold all permits, licenses, variances, exemptions, orders, franchises and approvals of all Governmental Authorities necessary for the lawful conduct of their respective businesses (the “Terra BDC Permits”), except where the failure to so hold would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect. Terra BDC and the Terra BDC Subsidiaries are in compliance with the terms of the Terra BDC Permits, except where the failure to so comply would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect. Neither Terra BDC nor any Terra BDC Subsidiary is in violation or breach of, or default under, any Terra BDC Permit, nor has Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary received any claim or notice indicating that Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary is currently not in compliance with the terms of any Terra BDC Permits, except where the failure to be in compliance with the terms of any Terra BDC Permits would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect. The businesses of Terra BDC and the Terra BDC Subsidiaries are not currently being conducted, and at no time since December 31, 2020 have been conducted, in violation of any applicable Law, except for violations that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect. As of the date of this Agreement, to the knowledge of Terra BDC, no investigation or review by any Governmental Authority with respect to Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary is pending or threatened, other than those the outcome of which would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Terra BDC Material Adverse Effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.8, the provisions of this Section 4.8 shall not apply to matters addressed in Section 4.12 and Section 4.15.

Section 4.9 Litigation. There is no material action, suit, proceeding or investigation to which Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary is a party (either as plaintiff or defendant) pending or, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, threatened before any Governmental Authority, and, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, there is no basis for any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation. Neither Terra BDC nor any Terra BDC Subsidiary has been permanently or temporarily enjoined by any Order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority from engaging in or continuing to conduct the business of Terra BDC or the Terra BDC Subsidiaries. No Order of any Governmental Authority has been issued in any proceeding to which Terra BDC or any of the Terra BDC Subsidiaries is or was a party, or, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC, in any other proceeding, that enjoins or requires Terra BDC or any of the Terra BDC Subsidiaries to take action of any kind with respect to its businesses, assets or properties. Since December 31, 2021, none of Terra BDC, any Terra BDC Subsidiary or any Representative of the foregoing has received or made any settlement offer for any material Action to which Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary is a party or potentially could be a party (in each case, either as plaintiff or defendant), other than settlement offers that do not exceed $500,000 individually.

Terra BDC and each other Terra BDC Subsidiary has duly paid (or there has been paid on their behalf), or made adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP for, all material Taxes required to be paid by them, whether or not shown on any Tax Return. No written claim has been proposed by any Governmental Authority in any jurisdiction where Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary does not file Tax Returns that Terra BDC or any Terra BDC Subsidiary is or may be subject to Tax by such jurisdiction.

(b) Terra BDC (i) for all taxable years commencing with Terra BDC’s year ending December 31, 2018 and through December 31, 2021, has been subject to taxation as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under Section 856 of the Code and has satisfied all requirements to qualify as a REIT for such years; (ii) has operated since October 1, 2018 to the date hereof, in a manner consistent with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT; (iii) intends to continue to operate in such a manner as to qualify as a REIT for its taxable year that will include the day of the Merger; and (iv) has not taken or omitted to take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a challenge by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority to its status as a REIT, and no such challenge is pending or threatened, to the Knowledge of Terra BDC.

No event has occurred, and to the Knowledge of Terra REIT no condition or circumstances exists, which presents a material risk that any material liability for Taxes described clause (i) or (iii) of the preceding sentence or any liability for Taxes described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence will be imposed upon Terra REIT or any Terra REIT Subsidiary. Terra REIT has never had any earnings and profits accumulated in any “non-REIT year,” within the meaning of Section 857(a)(2) of the Code.

(b) Each of Terra REIT and the Surviving Entity agrees that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in (i) the Terra BDC Governing Documents or, if applicable, similar organizational documents or agreements of any Terra BDC Subsidiary (the “Terra BDC Organizational Documents”) and (ii) indemnification agreements of Terra BDC shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. From and after the Effective Time, Terra REIT shall, and shall cause the Surviving Entity to, fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of Terra BDC pursuant to (i) each indemnification agreement in effect between Terra BDC, on the one hand, and any Indemnified Party, on the other hand, and (ii) any indemnification, exculpation from liability or advancement of expenses provision set forth in the Terra BDC Organizational Documents, as in effect on the date hereof, including, in each case, in respect of any Action that arises directly or indirectly out of or pertains directly or indirectly to (A) any action or omission or alleged action or omission in such Indemnified Party’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of Terra BDC (regardless of whether such action or omission or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to, at or after the Effective Time) or (B) any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger. For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, the organizational documents of Terra REIT and the Surviving Entity and the organizational documents of any applicable Terra REIT Subsidiary or Terra BDC Subsidiary shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification of directors and officers and exculpation of directors and officers from liability than are set forth in the Terra BDC Organizational Documents, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were Indemnified Parties, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law and then only to the minimum extent required by applicable Law.

(c) For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Terra REIT shall cause the Surviving Entity to maintain in effect Terra BDC’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering each Person currently covered by Terra BDC’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy for acts or omissions occurring prior to and through the Effective Time; provided, that in lieu of such obligation, (i) the Surviving Entity may substitute therefor policies of an insurance company with the same or better rating as Terra BDC’s current insurance carrier the material terms of which, including coverage and amount, are no less favorable in any material respect to such directors and officers than Terra BDC’s existing policies as of the date hereof or (ii) in consultation with Terra REIT, Terra BDC may obtain extended reporting period coverage under Terra BDC’s existing insurance programs (to be effective as of the Effective Time) for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time for a cost not in excess of three times the current annual premiums for such insurance; and provided, further, that in no event shall the Surviving Entity be required to pay annual premiums for insurance under this Section 7.7(c) in excess of 300% of the most recent annual premiums paid by Terra BDC for such purpose, it being understood that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Entity shall nevertheless be obligated to provide such coverage as may be obtained for such 300% amount.

(d) If Terra REIT or the Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges with or into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation, partnership or other entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) liquidates, dissolves or winds up, or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of any such transaction the successors and assigns of Terra REIT or the Surviving Entity, as applicable, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.7.

(e) The provisions of this Section 7.7 are intended to be for the express benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party (each of which is an intended third party beneficiary of this Section 7.7), his or her heirs and his or her personal representatives, shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Terra BDC, Terra REIT and the Surviving Entity and shall not be amended in a manner that is adverse to the Indemnified Party (including his or her successors, assigns and heirs) without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (including such successors, assigns and heirs) affected thereby. The exculpation and indemnification provided for by this Section 7.7 shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to applicable Law, Contract or otherwise. Terra REIT shall cause the Surviving Entity to pay all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnified Party in enforcing the obligations provided in this Section 7.7.

Payment of the Termination Fee shall be made by wire transfer of same day funds to the account or accounts designated by Terra REIT (x) in the case of Section 9.3(b)(i), within three Business Days after such termination, (y) in the case of Section 9.3(b)(ii), prior to or concurrently with the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(ii) and (z) in the case of Section 9.3(b)(iii), substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition Proposal.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Termination Fee becomes payable, then such payment shall be Terra REIT’s sole and exclusive remedy as liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages of any nature against Terra BDC and each of its respective Representatives in respect of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including for any loss or damage suffered as a result of the termination of this Agreement, the failure of the Merger to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder (whether intentionally, unintentionally, or otherwise) or otherwise.

(d) Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement. In the event that Terra BDC shall fail to pay the Termination Fee when due, Terra BDC shall reimburse Terra REIT for all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred or accrued by Terra REIT (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 9.3. Further, if Terra BDC fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 9.3, and, in order to obtain the payment, Terra REIT commences a suit which results in a judgment against Terra BDC for the payment set forth in this Section 9.3, Terra BDC shall pay to Terra REIT its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment. If payable, the Termination Fee shall not be payable more than once pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) In the event that the Termination Fee shall be payable, Terra BDC shall deposit into escrow an amount in cash equal to the Termination Fee with an escrow agent reasonably selected by Terra BDC, after reasonable consultation with Terra REIT, and pursuant to a written escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) reflecting the terms set forth in this Section 9.3(e) and otherwise reasonably acceptable to each of the Parties and the escrow agent. The payment or deposit into escrow of the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 9.3(e) shall be made by Terra BDC promptly after receipt of notice from Terra REIT that the Escrow Agreement has been executed by the parties thereto. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Termination Fee in escrow or the applicable portion thereof shall be released to Terra REIT on an annual basis based upon the delivery by Terra REIT to the escrow agent of any one (or a combination) of the following:

(i) a letter from Terra REIT’s independent certified public accountants indicating the maximum amount that can be paid by the escrow agent to Terra REIT without causing Terra REIT to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code for the applicable taxable year of Terra REIT determined as if the payment of such amount did not constitute income described in Sections 856(c)(2)(A)-(H) or 856(c)(3)(A)-(I) of the Code (such income, “Qualifying REIT Income”), in which case the escrow agent shall release to Terra REIT such maximum amount stated in the accountant’s letter;

(ii) a letter from Terra REIT’s counsel indicating that Terra REIT received a private letter ruling from the IRS holding that the receipt by Terra REIT of the Termination Fee would either constitute Qualifying REIT Income or would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, in which case the escrow agent shall release to Terra REIT the remainder of the Termination Fee; or

(iii) a letter from Terra REIT’s counsel indicating that Terra REIT has received a tax opinion from Terra REIT’s outside counsel or accountant, respectively, to the effect that the receipt by Terra REIT of the Termination Fee would either constitute Qualifying REIT Income or would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Section 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, in which case the escrow agent shall release to Terra REIT the remainder of the Termination Fee.

The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to amend this Section 9.3(e) at the reasonable request of Terra REIT in order to (A) maximize the portion of the Termination Fee that may be distributed to Terra REIT hereunder without causing Terra REIT to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, (B) improve Terra REIT’s chances of securing the favorable private letter ruling from the IRS described in this Section 9.3(e) or (C) assist Terra REIT in obtaining the favorable tax opinion from its outside counsel or accountant described in this Section 9.3(e). The Escrow Agreement shall provide that Terra REIT shall bear all costs and expenses under the Escrow Agreement. Terra BDC shall not be a party to the Escrow Agreement and shall not bear any liability, cost or expense resulting directly or indirectly from the Escrow Agreement (other than any Taxes of Terra BDC associated with the release of the funds to Terra BDC from the escrow). Terra REIT shall fully indemnify Terra BDC and hold Terra BDC harmless from and against any such liability, cost or expense.

Section 10.4 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any present or future Law, or public policy, (a) such term or other provision shall be fully separable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, and (c) all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable term or other provision or by its severance herefrom so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 10.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall be deemed one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered (by telecopy, electronic delivery or otherwise) to the other Parties. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document form” (“pdf”), or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

Section 10.6 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries This Agreement (including the Exhibits, the Schedules, the Terra BDC Disclosure Letter and the Terra REIT Disclosure Letter) and the Confidentiality Agreement (a) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and, (b) except for the provisions of Article 3 (which, from and after the Effective Time, shall be for the benefit of holders of shares of Terra BDC Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time) and Section 7.7 (which, from and after the Effective Time shall be for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties), are not intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties hereto any rights or remedies.

Section 10.7 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Parties (in the case of Terra BDC, upon the recommendation of the Terra BDC Special Committee, and in the case of Terra REIT, upon the recommendation of the Terra REIT Special Committee) may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of any Party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

(a) Except to the extent that the Laws of the State of Delaware are mandatorily applicable to the Merger, this Agreement, and all claims or causes of actions (whether at Law, in contract or in tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Maryland without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles (whether the State of Maryland or any other jurisdiction that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland).

(b) Any and all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Maryland state or federal court exercising jurisdiction over the subject matter of such dispute(s).

Each of the Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such dispute shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.3. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 10.9 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties. This Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 10.10 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur to the non-breaching party if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy in the event of a breach. It is accordingly agreed that, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 9, each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent one or more breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at Law or in equity.

Section 10.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, COMPLAINT, CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD-PARTY CLAIM, ANSWER, OR OTHER PLEADING OR PAPER ANCILLARY THERETO, DEMAND OR REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND FURTHER AGREES THAT ANY SUCH DEMAND OR REQUEST WOULD BE VOID AB INITIO AND INVALID, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY MAY HAVE INITIATED SUCH DEMAND OR REQUEST. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 10.11.

Section 10.12 Authorship. The Parties agree that the terms and language of this Agreement are the result of negotiations between the Parties and their respective advisors and, as a result, there shall be no presumption that any ambiguities in this Agreement shall be resolved against any Party.

Exhibit C

FORM OF FIRST ARTICLES OF AMENDMENT TO

THE ARTICLES OF AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF

TERRA PROPERTY TRUST, INC.

Terra Property Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Corporation”), hereby certifies to the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (the “SDAT”) that:

FIRST: The Articles of Amendment and Restatement of the Corporation (the “Articles”) are hereby amended to provide that, immediately upon the acceptance of these First Articles of Amendment to the Articles for record (the “Effective Time”) by the SDAT, each share of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Corporation which was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be changed into one issued and outstanding share of Class B Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share.

SECOND: The Articles are hereby further amended by deleting existing Section 6.1 of Article VI in its entirety and replacing it with a new Section 6.1 of Article VI to read as follows:

Section 6.1 Authorized Shares. The Corporation has authority to issue 950,000,000 shares of stock, consisting of 450,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”), 450,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Class B Common Stock,” together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). The aggregate par value of all authorized shares of stock having par value is $9,500,000. If shares of one class of stock are classified or reclassified into shares of another class of stock pursuant to Section 6.2, 6.3 or 6.4 of this Article VI, the number of authorized shares of the former class shall be automatically decreased and the number of shares of the latter class shall be automatically increased, in each case by the number of shares so classified or reclassified, so that the aggregate number of shares of stock of all classes that the Corporation has authority to issue shall not be more than the total number of shares of stock set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph. The Board of Directors, with the approval of a majority of the entire Board and without any action by the stockholders of the Corporation, may amend the Charter from time to time to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that the Corporation has authority to issue.

THIRD: The Articles are hereby further amended by deleting existing Section 6.2 of Article VI in its entirety and replacing it with a new Section 6.2 of Article VI to read as follows:

Section 6.2 Common Stock.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Article VII and except as may otherwise be specified in the Charter, each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote. Without limiting the foregoing, except as set forth in Section 6.2(b) below or in Article VII, (i) each share of Common Stock shall have identical preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications, and terms and conditions of redemption as each other share of Common Stock and all provisions of the Charter applicable to the Common Stock, including, without limitation, the provisions of this Article VI and Article VII, shall apply to each class of Common Stock, and (ii) the shares of Common Stock shall rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respects as to all matters. The Board of Directors may reclassify any unissued shares of Common Stock from time to time into one or more classes or series of stock.

(b) On the date that is one hundred eighty (180) calendar days (or, if such date is not a business day, the next business day) after the date of initial listing of shares of Class A Common Stock for trading on a national securities exchange or such earlier date as shall be approved by the Board of Directors and set forth in a Certificate of Notice filed with the SDAT (as defined in Section 6.4) (the “First Conversion Date”), one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof convert into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. On the date that is three hundred sixty-five (365) calendar days (or, if such date is not a business day, the next business day) after the date of initial listing of shares of Class A Common Stock for trading on a national securities exchange or such earlier date following the First Conversion Date as shall be approved by the Board of Directors and set forth in a Certificate of Notice filed with the SDAT (the “Second Conversion Date”), one-half of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof convert into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. On the date that is five hundred forty-five (545) calendar days (or, if such date is not a business day, the next business day) after the date of initial listing of shares of Class A Common Stock for trading on a national securities exchange or such earlier date following the Second Conversion Date as shall be approved by the Board of Directors and set forth in a Certificate of Notice filed with the SDAT, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof convert into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock.

FOURTH: The amendments to the Articles as set forth above have been duly advised by at least a majority of the Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders of the Corporation as required by law.

Section 5.09 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.
