Ladies and Gentlemen:

Business Development Corporation of America, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) and BDCA Adviser, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Adviser”), address you as the Initial Purchasers (as defined below). The Company proposes to sell to Sandler ▇’▇▇▇▇▇ & Partners, L.P., ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. and UBS Securities LLC (the “Representatives”), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ & Company, L.L.C. and Ladenburg ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. Inc. (together with the Representatives, the “Initial Purchasers”) $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, due 2020 (the “Securities”).

The Securities will be issued pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture of Trust (the “Indenture”), dated as of August 31, 2015, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on the terms and in the manner set forth herein and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to qualified institutional buyers (“Subsequent Purchasers”) at any time after this Agreement has been executed and delivered. The Securities are to be offered and sold through the Initial Purchasers without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “1933 Act”), in reliance upon the exemption from such registration afforded by Rule 144A of the 1933 Act (“Rule 144A”). Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors (including the Initial Purchasers) that acquire Securities may only resell or otherwise transfer such Securities if such Securities are hereafter registered for resale under the 1933 Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act is available (including the exemption afforded by Rule 144A).

In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Company has prepared and delivered to the Initial Purchasers physical or electronic copies of a preliminary offering memorandum dated August 25, 2015 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”) and will prepare and deliver to the Initial Purchasers, not later than the second business day following the date hereof, physical or electronic copies of a final offering memorandum (the “Final Offering Memorandum”), each for use by the Initial Purchasers in connection with their solicitation of purchases of, or offering of, the Securities. “Offering Memorandum” means, with respect to any date or time referred to in this Agreement, the most recent offering memorandum (whether the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case including any amendment or supplement to either document), including exhibits thereto and any documents incorporated therein by reference, which has been prepared and delivered by the Company to the Initial Purchasers in connection with their solicitation of purchases of, or offering of, the Securities. “Disclosure Package” shall mean the Preliminary Offering Memorandum together with the written information set forth in the Pricing Term Sheet attached hereto as Exhibit A.

The Company has entered into: (i) a Second Amended and Restated Investment Management Agreement with the Adviser, dated as of June 5, 2013 (the “Advisory Agreement”); (ii) a Custody Agreement with U.S. Bank National Association, dated August 13, 2012, as amended (the “Custodian Agreement”); (iii) an Amended and Restated Fund Administration Servicing Agreement with U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, dated April 17, 2015 (the “Administration Agreement”); and (iv) an Amended and Restated Fund Accounting Agreement with U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, dated April 17, 2015 (the “Accounting Agreement”). Collectively, the Advisory Agreement, the Custodian Agreement, the Administration Agreement and the Accounting Agreement are herein referred to as the “Company Agreements.” In addition, the Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan (the “Distribution Reinvestment Plan”) pursuant to which the holders of Common Stock shall have their dividends automatically reinvested in additional Common Stock of the Company unless they elect to receive such dividends in cash.

1. Representations and Warranties of the Company and the Adviser. The Company and the Adviser, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to, and agree with, the Initial Purchasers as set forth below in this Section 1:

The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum based upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Initial Purchasers through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Initial Purchasers through the Representatives consists of the information described as such in the last sentence of Section 9(b) hereof.

(b) Neither the Company nor the Adviser (including their agents and representatives, other than the Initial Purchasers in their capacity as such) have prepared, made, used, authorized, approved, referred to or distributed, nor will prepare, make, use, authorize, approve, refer to or distribute, any written communication that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities (each such communication by the Company or its agents and representatives, including in items (iii) and (iv) below, an “Issuer Written Communication”) other than (i) the Disclosure Package, (ii) the Final Offering Memorandum, (iii) any electronic road show or other written communications, and (iv) the documents listed on Schedule IV hereto, in each case used in accordance with Sections 1(r) and 5(b). Each such Issuer Written Communication, when taken together with the Disclosure Package, did not, as of its date and as of the Time of Sale, and at the Closing Date will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Upon payment for and delivery of the Securities to be sold by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Initial Purchasers will acquire good and valid title to the Securities, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities, preemptive rights, subscription rights, or any other claim of any third party.

(h) Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Adviser or of the Advisory Agreement nor the consummation by the Adviser of the transactions herein contemplated or by the Adviser of the transactions therein contemplated (i) conflicts or will conflict with or constitutes or will constitute a breach of the certificate of formation or limited liability company operating agreement of the Adviser, (ii) conflicts or will conflict with or constitutes or will constitute a breach of or a default under, any material agreement, indenture, lease or other instrument to which the Adviser is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound, except for such conflicts that would not result in an Adviser Material Adverse Effect or (iii) violates or will violate any material statute, law, regulation or filing or judgment, injunction, order or decree applicable to the Adviser or any of its properties or, other than pursuant to the terms of Section 5(h) hereof, will result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Adviser pursuant to the terms of any agreement or instrument to which the Adviser is a party or by which the Adviser may be bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Adviser is subject, except to the extent for such violations, liens, charges or encumbrances that would not result in an Adviser Material Adverse Effect, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this representation and warranty, the transactions contemplated under the Advisory Agreement do not include any prospective investment transactions generally authorized therein.

(i) The Adviser has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities, and the Adviser is not aware of any such action taken or to be taken by any affiliates of the Adviser.

(j) The Adviser is not aware that (i) any of the Adviser’s executives, key employees or significant group of employees plans to terminate employment with the Adviser or (ii) any such executive or key employee is subject to any noncompete, nondisclosure, confidentiality, employment, consulting or similar agreement that would be violated by the present or proposed business activities of the Company or the Adviser except where such termination or violation would not constitute an Adviser Material Adverse Effect.

Any certificate signed by any officer of the Adviser and delivered to the Initial Purchasers or counsel for the Initial Purchasers in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Adviser, as to matters covered therein, to the Initial Purchasers.

3. Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to the Initial Purchasers and the Initial Purchasers agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite its name on Schedule I attached hereto. The purchase price for the Securities shall be 98.42% of their principal amount.

Delivery of and payment for the Securities shall be made at 10:00 AM, New York City time, on August 31, 2015, or at such time on such later date not more than three Business Days (as defined below) after the foregoing date as the Representatives shall designate (such date and time of delivery and payment for the Securities being herein called the “Closing Date”). Delivery of the Securities shall be made to the Initial Purchasers against payment by the Initial Purchasers of the purchase price thereof to or upon the order of the Company by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to an account specified by the Company. Delivery of the Securities shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct the Company in writing. “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions or trust companies are authorized or obligated by law to close in New York City.

5. Agreements of the Company and the Adviser. The Company and the Adviser, jointly and severally, agree with the Initial Purchasers as follows:

(a) To furnish the Initial Purchasers and those persons identified by the Initial Purchasers, without charge, as many copies of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Issuer Written Communication and the Final Offering Memorandum, and any amendments or supplements thereto, as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request. The Issuers consent to the use of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement and the Final Offering Memorandum, and any amendments or supplements thereto, by the Initial Purchasers in connection with resales to Subsequent Purchasers.

(c) The Company will immediately notify the Initial Purchasers, and confirm such notice in writing of (x) any filing made by the Company of information relating to the offering of the Securities with any securities exchange or any other regulatory body in the United States or any other jurisdiction, and (y) prior to the earlier of the completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers or nine months following the Closing Date, any Material Adverse Effect or Adviser Material Adverse Effect which (i) makes any statement in the Disclosure Package or any Offering Memorandum in light of the circumstances under which they were made, false or misleading or (ii) is not disclosed in the Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum. In such event and during such time any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of any of the Company, its counsel, the Representatives or counsel for the Initial Purchasers, to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or any Offering Memorandum in order that the same not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, the Company, subject to Section 5(d), will forthwith amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or such Offering Memorandum, as the case may be, by preparing and furnishing to the Initial Purchasers an amendment or amendments or supplement or supplements thereto (in form and substance satisfactory in the opinion of counsel for the Initial Purchasers) so that, as so amended or supplemented, the Disclosure Package or such Offering Memorandum, as the case may be, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a Subsequent Purchaser, not misleading.

(d) Prior to the earlier of the time of completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or nine months following the Closing Date, the Company will give the Initial Purchasers notice of its intention to prepare any supplement or amendment to the Offering Memorandum, will furnish the Initial Purchasers with copies of any such amendment or supplement a reasonable amount of time as practicable prior to such proposed use, and will not use any such amendment or supplement to which the Representatives or counsel for the Initial Purchasers shall reasonably object. Neither the consent of the Initial Purchasers, nor the Representatives’ delivery of any such amendment or supplement, shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof. The Company will prepare a Pricing Term Sheet, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Pricing Term Sheet”) and shall deliver it to the Initial Purchasers prior to the Time of Sale.

(e) Prior to the earlier of the time of completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or nine months following the Closing Date, if any event occurs as a result of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, the Final Offering Memorandum as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company promptly will: (i) notify the Initial Purchasers of any such event; (ii) prepare an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; and (iii) supply any supplemented Offering Memorandum to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(f) Prior to the earlier of the time of completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or nine months following the Closing Date, if there occurs an event or development as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include an untrue statement of a material fact or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will notify promptly the Initial Purchasers so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented.

(g) The Company will cooperate with the Initial Purchasers and use its reasonable best efforts to permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the facilities of DTC.

(h) The Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Initial Purchasers may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities; provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject. Until the offering of the Securities is complete, the Company will file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the 1940 Act and Exchange Act within the time periods required thereby.

(i) The Company and the Adviser will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by the Company or the Adviser or any Affiliate of the Company or any person in privity with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, directly or indirectly, including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement with the Commission 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) any senior notes or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, senior notes other than the Securities; or publicly announce an intention to effect any such transaction for a period beginning on the date hereof and extending through the Closing Date.

(j) The Company and the Adviser will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

(p) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain its qualification to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, for each full fiscal year during which it is a business development company under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.

6. Conditions to the Obligation of the Initial Purchasers. The obligation of the Initial Purchasers to purchase the Securities shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company and the Adviser contained herein as of the date and time that this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties hereto (the “Execution Time”), the Time of Sale and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company or the Adviser made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company or the Adviser of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions (except to the extent that any such conditions may have been waived in writing by the Initial Purchasers on or prior to such respective dates):

(c) Each of the Company and the Adviser shall have furnished to the Initial Purchasers certificates, signed by the Chief Executive Officer and the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company and by the manager of the Adviser, each dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificates have carefully examined the Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum, any supplements or amendments to the Final Offering Memorandum and this Agreement and that:

(i) The representations and warranties of the Company and the Adviser in this Agreement are true and correct as of the date hereof, as of the Time of Sale and on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and the Company and the Adviser have complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part that are respectively required to be performed or satisfied by them at or prior to the Closing Date; and

(ii) Since the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum (with respect to the certificate of the Company) and since the dates of the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum (with respect to the certificate of the Adviser), there has been no Material Adverse Effect or Adviser Material Adverse Effect.

(d) The Company shall have requested and caused KPMG LLP and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP to each have furnished to the Initial Purchasers, at the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, letters, dated respectively as of the Execution Time and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance heretofore approved by the Representatives.

(i) All agreements set forth in the DTC Agreement relating to the approval of the Notes by DTC for “book-entry” transfer shall have been complied with.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided for in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Initial Purchasers, this Agreement and all obligations of the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives (unless any such conditions have been waived in writing by the Representatives on or prior to such respective dates).

(ii) Other than those items listed on Schedule III hereto, no general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the 1933 Act or any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) has been or will be used in the United States in connection with the offering or sale of the Securities.

(iii) Prior to or contemporaneously with the purchase of any Securities, the applicable Initial Purchasers will inform persons acquiring Securities from the Initial Purchasers that the Securities (A) have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act, (B) are being sold to them without registration under the 1933 Act in reliance on Rule 144A, and (C) may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except (1) to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (2) as long as the Securities are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer that is purchasing such Securities for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer to whom notice is given that the offer, sale or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (3) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.

(iv) The notice to investors and the other provisions set forth in the Offering Memorandum under the heading “Notice to Investors,” including the legend required thereby, shall apply to the Securities, except as otherwise agreed by the Company and the Initial Purchasers. Following the sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers pursuant to the terms hereof, the Initial Purchasers shall not be liable or responsible to the Company for any losses, damages or liabilities suffered or incurred by the Company, including any losses, damages or liabilities under the 1933 Act, arising from or relating to any resale, transfer or exchange of any Note by any Subsequent Purchaser.

(b) Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants with the Initial Purchasers as follows:

(i) The Company agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit any offer to buy, sell or make any offer or sale of, or otherwise negotiate in respect of, securities of the Company of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the 1933 Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (A) the offer and, if applicable, sale of the Securities by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (B) the reoffer and, if applicable, resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or (C) the reoffer and, if applicable, resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof or by Rule 144A thereunder or otherwise.

(ii) The Company agrees that, in order to render the Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, while any of the Securities remain outstanding and during any period in which the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will make available, upon request, to any holder or beneficial owner of Securities or prospective purchasers of Securities the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4). In addition, to the extent the Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall timely file all reports under the Exchange Act.

(iii) Until the expiration of one year after the original issuance of the Securities, the Company will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, resell any of the Securities which are “restricted securities” (as such term is defined under Rule 144(a)(3) under the 1933 Act), whether as beneficial owner or otherwise (except as agent acting as a securities broker on behalf of and for the account of customers in the ordinary course of business in unsolicited brokers’ transactions).

(c) Qualified Institutional Buyer. The Initial Purchasers each represent and warrant to, and agree with, the Company that it is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the 1933 Act.

8. Reimbursement of Initial Purchasers’ Expenses. Other than pursuant to a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof, if the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated (i) because any condition to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, (ii) because of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10(a) hereof, or (iii) because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or the Adviser to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof, the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by it in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

9. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company and the Adviser, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Initial Purchasers, the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Initial Purchasers and each person who controls the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (including reasonable and documented costs of investigation), to which they or any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Written Communication (including, but not limited to, any electronic road show or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing)), or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and subject to the provisions hereof, agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and the Adviser will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company and the Adviser by the Initial Purchasers through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood that the only information furnished by the Initial Purchasers consists of the information described as such in the last sentence of Section 9(b). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Adviser may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.

(b) The Initial Purchasers agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company and the Adviser, the directors, employees, as applicable, officers and agents of the Company and the Adviser and each person who controls the Company or the Adviser within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Adviser to the Initial Purchasers, but only with reference to written information relating to the Initial Purchasers furnished to the Company or the Adviser by the Initial Purchasers specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have to the Company and the Adviser. The Company and the Adviser acknowledge that the statements set forth in the second sentence of the third paragraph and the first five sentences of the eleventh paragraph of the section titled “Plan of Distribution” in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum constitute the only information furnished in writing by the Initial Purchasers through the Representatives for inclusion in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below) and to control such action; provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (A) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (B) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (C) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (D) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, the Adviser and the Initial Purchasers severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, the Adviser and the Initial Purchasers may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Adviser, on the one hand (treated jointly for this purpose as one person), and by the Initial Purchasers, on the other, from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall the Initial Purchasers be responsible for any amount in excess of the Initial Purchasers’ discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by the Initial Purchasers hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, the Adviser and the Initial Purchasers severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Adviser, on the one hand (treated jointly for this purpose as one person), and of the Initial Purchasers, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company, and the Adviser (treated jointly for this purpose as one person) shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be equal to the total Initial Purchasers’ discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Offering Memorandum. Relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company and the Adviser, on the one hand (treated jointly for this purpose as one person), or the Initial Purchasers, on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Adviser and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9, each person who controls the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Initial Purchasers shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchasers, and each person who controls the Company or the Adviser within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act, and each director, officer and agent of the Company and the Adviser shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Adviser, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

(e) No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability from claimants on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. Subject to the following sentence, an indemnifying party shall not be liable to an indemnified party under this Section 9 for any settlement of any claim or action effected without the prior written consent of such indemnifying party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by this Section 9 effected without its written consent if (A) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (B) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (C) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(f) Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section 9 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 9 and the representations and warranties of the Company and the Adviser set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or any person controlling the Initial Purchasers, the Company, the Adviser or their shareholders, trustees, directors, managers, members or officers or any person controlling the Company or the Adviser (control to be determined within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act), (ii) acceptance of any Securities and payment therefor hereunder and (iii) any termination or cancellation of this Agreement. A successor to the Initial Purchasers or to the Company, the Adviser or their shareholders, trustees, directors, managers, members or officers or any person controlling the Initial Purchasers, the Company or the Adviser shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 9.

10. Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Initial Purchasers, without liability on the part of the Initial Purchasers to the Company or the Adviser, by notice given to the Company, or the Adviser prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (A) there has been, since the Execution Time, or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, any material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business or properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, considered as a single enterprise, or the Adviser, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, which would, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum (exclusive of any supplement thereto), (B) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “NYSE”) shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on the NYSE, (C) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New York State authorities, (D) a material disruption has occurred in securities settlement or securities clearance in the United States or (E) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

(b) If any one or more Initial Purchasers shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Initial Purchasers) the Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Initial Purchasers do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company. In the event of a default by any Initial Purchaser as set forth in this Section 10(b), the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Final Offering Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of its liability, if any, to the Company or any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of each of the Company, and the Adviser or its officers and of the Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or the Company or the Adviser or any of the officers, trustees, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 9 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 8 and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers and any affiliate through which they may be acting, on the other, (b) the Initial Purchasers are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Company and (c) the Company’s engagement of the Initial Purchasers in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether the Initial Purchasers has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Initial Purchasers have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

13. Integration. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, the Adviser and the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
