CLASS A-1A CREDIT AGREEMENT This CLASS A-1A CREDIT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated as of September 17, 2024, is entered into by and among BARINGS PRIVATE CREDIT CORPORATION CLO 2023-1 LTD., an exempted company limited by shares and incorporated under the laws of Bermuda (the “Borrower”), BARINGS PRIVATE CREDIT CLO 2023-1, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Co- Borrower” and, together with the Borrower, the “Co-Borrowers”). various financial institutions and other persons which are, or may become, parties hereto as Lenders, and STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY (the "Bank"), as loan agent (in such capacity, the "Loan Agent") and as collateral trustee (in such capacity, the "Collateral Trustee") under the Indenture.

Section 1.6 Legal Representation of the Parties. This Agreement was negotiated by the parties hereto with the benefit of legal representation and any rule of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement or any other Credit Document to be construed or interpreted against any party shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof or thereof. ARTICLE II CLASS A-1A COMMITMENTS Section 2.1 Commitment of Each Lender. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders, severally, but not jointly, agree to make a term loan to the Co-Borrowers (each such loan, a "Secured Loan" and all such loans collectively (and together with any Additional Loans made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement then outstanding), the "Secured Loans") in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Aggregate Class A-1A Commitment. (b) On the 2024 Closing Date, in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof, each Initial Lender hereby agrees to make available to the Co-Borrowers a Secured Loan in the amount equal to its respective percentage (as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto) of the Aggregate Class A-1A Commitment (with respect to each Initial Lender, its "Class A-1A Commitment"). (c) Subject to the terms hereof and the Priority of Payments, the Co- Borrowers may from time to time prepay the Secured Loans in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and Priority of Payments; provided that the Co-Borrowers may not re-borrow any Secured Loan following the prepayment or repayment thereof. Upon the funding of its respective Class A-1A Commitment on the 2024 Closing Date, the obligation of each Initial Lender to make a Secured Loan or fund any portion of the Aggregate Class A-1A Commitment hereunder shall terminate. (d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Loans shall constitute "Class A-1A Loans" as defined under the Indenture and shall comprise and be a part of the "Class A-1 Debt" as set forth therein and, as such, shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture applicable to the Class A-1A Loans and the Class A-1 Debt, and shall have, in addition to the rights granted hereunder, the rights afforded under the Indenture to lenders of such debt (as applicable).

-4- ARTICLE III BORROWING OF THE SECURED LOANS Section 3.1 Borrowing Procedures. (a) All borrowings of the Secured Loans shall be made in accordance with this Section 3.1 by delivering a borrowing request in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (any such request, a "Borrowing Request"). (b) Borrowing of the Initial Commitment. No later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the 2024 Closing Date, each Initial Lender shall pay an amount equal to its respective Class A-1A Commitment in immediately available funds to the account of the Borrower specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. (c) Additional Borrowings. On any Business Day, the Co-Borrowers may, in connection with the issuance of additional debt under Section 2.13 of the Indenture, borrow additional loans hereunder (any such loan, an "Additional Loan"). The borrowing of such Additional Loan(s) shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.13 of the Indenture, and may only be borrowed (i) if such conditions have been met and (ii) if the making of such Additional Loans and the principal amount thereof is specified in a Conforming Amendment to this Agreement that is acknowledged by the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee. The opportunity to act as Lender with respect to such Additional Loans will, to the extent reasonably practicable, be provided first to the existing Lenders in such amounts as are necessary to preserve their pro rata share of the then outstanding Secured Loans. If a Person that was not previously a party to this Agreement extends any such Additional Loan, it will be required to be made a party to this Agreement by executing the amendment reflecting the terms of such Additional Loans and adding such Person as a Lender hereunder. This Agreement will be amended to reflect the terms of any Additional Loans in accordance with Section 8.11. Section 3.2 Lender Notes. No Secured Loans will be represented by a promissory note or other instrument. Section 3.3 Principal Payments and Prepayments. (a) Repayment of Principal. Unless principal on the Secured Loans becomes due and payable at an earlier date by acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, all unpaid principal of the Secured Loans shall be due and payable on the final stated maturity of such Secured Loan. In addition, the Co-Borrowers shall make payments of unpaid principal of the Secured Loans on each Payment Date after the Reinvestment Period to the extent provided in the Priority of Payments. Any such payments of principal will be paid to the Loan Agent for payment to the Lenders in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of this Agreement. (b) Prepayments. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture, on any Payment Date or Redemption Date, prepayments of principal may be made on the Secured Loans in the event of redemptions or prepayments pursuant to the Indenture, including in connection with a failure of a Coverage Test, in connection with a Special Redemption or any Optional Redemption (including without limitation, a Refinancing), Clean-Up Call Redemption or Tax Redemption. Any such prepayments will be paid to (or at the direction of) the Loan Agent for

-5- payment to the Lenders in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of this Agreement. (c) Application. Each principal payment of the Secured Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Indenture (including the subordination provisions set forth in Section 13.1 therein), and the Priority of Payments. Payments to the Lenders shall be made pro rata based on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Secured Loans made under this Agreement. Secured Loans that are prepaid in connection with an Optional Redemption, Clean-Up Call Redemption or Tax Redemption will receive the Redemption Price in respect of such Secured Loans, in each case, in accordance with the Indenture. Section 3.4 Interest Payments. (a) Interest on each Secured Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date in accordance with the terms of the Indenture (including the subordination provisions set forth in Section 13.1 of the Indenture and the payment provisions set forth in Section 2.7 of the Indenture) and the Priority of Payments. (b) On each Payment Date, interest due and payable on the unpaid principal amount of each Secured Loan for each applicable Interest Accrual Period, shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of such Secured Loan as of the preceding Payment Date (after giving effect to payments on any such Secured Loans on such preceding Payment Date), (ii) the Benchmark for the Interest Accrual Period plus the Applicable Margin and (iii) the actual number of days during the Interest Accrual Period divided by 360. The Benchmark with respect to each Interest Accrual Period (or portion thereof) shall be determined as provided in the Indenture. To the extent lawful and enforceable, interest shall accrue on any defaulted amounts that remain unpaid on and after any Payment Date as set forth in Section 2.7 of the Indenture. (c) Unless otherwise directed in writing by the Loan Agent (at the direction of Lenders holding a Majority of the outstanding Secured Loans) to the contrary, the Borrower shall cause all payments of interest on the Secured Loans to be made to (or at the direction of) the Loan Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with Section 3.5 herein. (d) Each Lender hereby consents to the Borrower's appointment of the Collateral Administrator, to serve as Calculation Agent under the Indenture and this Agreement. All computations of interest hereunder shall be made by the Calculation Agent in accordance Section 8.6 herein with Section 7.16 of the Indenture (which shall be binding upon each of the Co-Borrowers as if such section (and the corresponding defined terms) had been set forth herein in its entirety). All other calculations, including the Outstanding amount of each Lender's Secured Loan, each Lender's Applicable Outstanding Percentage and pro rata payments, shall be made by the Loan Agent. (e) In no event shall the rate of interest applicable to any Secured Loan exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Section 3.5 Method and Place of Payment. To the extent funds are available pursuant to the Priority of Payments, all payments by the Co-Borrowers of principal

-6- and interest in respect of Secured Loans made pursuant hereto and all fees and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Loan Agent (at the direction of Lenders holding a Majority of the outstanding Secured Loans) to the Collateral Trustee, all payments under this Agreement shall be made to (or at the direction of) the Loan Agent for the ratable (based on their Applicable Outstanding Percentage) account of the Lenders entitled thereto in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth in Schedule 3 (which funds, if delivered to the Loan Agent, the Loan Agent shall promptly forward to such Lenders). Each Lender shall be paid interest accrued on the Secured Loans it holds for each day it holds such Secured Loans (but excluding any date of assignment) during an Interest Accrual Period on the related Payment Date (in the case of an assignment of Secured Loans between the applicable Payment Date, regardless of whether or not it holds such Secured Loan on such Payment Date). Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension. For the avoidance of doubt, all payments by the Co- Borrowers of principal and interest in respect of Secured Loans, or any other amounts owed to a Lender hereunder, payable on a Payment Date shall be made to the Lender of record identified in the Loan Register; provided that, if all or a portion of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s Secured Loan has been assigned pursuant to Section 8.4(c) below since the first date of the corresponding Interest Accrual Period, the Loan Agent shall allocate payments in respect of such Secured Loan to the assignor of such Secured Loan and the assignee of such Secured Loan based on the actual number of days on which such assignor and assignee were registered, respectively, as the Lender in the Loan Register during such Interest Accrual Period. Section 3.6 Subordination. (a) All Secured Loans incurred pursuant to this Agreement are subject to, and each Lender hereby consents and agrees to, the subordination and remedy provisions set forth in Section 13.1 of the Indenture. Article XIII of the Indenture shall be binding upon each Lender as though such sections (and the corresponding defined terms) had been set forth herein in their entirety. (b) Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of its Secured Loans are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Indenture. Each Lender hereby agrees and acknowledges that its right to any payment shall be subordinate and junior to certain other payment obligations senior in right of payment as provided in the Priority of Payments (collectively, the "Senior Items"). In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement and the Indenture, any Lender shall have received any payment or distribution in respect of its Secured Loan contrary to the provisions of the Indenture or this Agreement, then, unless and until each Senior Item shall have been paid in full in Cash or, to the extent the applicable party in respect of each such Senior Item consents, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over and delivered to, the Collateral Trustee, who shall pay and deliver the same in respect of the Senior Items in accordance with the Indenture; provided, however, that if any such payment or distribution is made other than in Cash, it shall be held by the Collateral Trustee as part of the Assets and subject in all respects to the provisions of the Indenture. Each Lender hereby agrees for the

-7- benefit of all recipients of the Senior Items that such Lender shall not demand, accept, or receive any payment or distribution in respect of its Secured Loan in violation of the provisions of the Indenture. Nothing in this Section 3.6(b) shall affect the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to pay the Lenders hereunder. (c) Loan Agent Entitled to Assume Payment Not Prohibited in Absence of Notice. The Loan Agent shall not at any time be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Loan Agent unless and until a Trust Officer of the Loan Agent responsible for the administration of this Agreement has actual knowledge thereof or unless and until the Loan Agent shall have received (in its role as Loan Agent) written notice thereof from the Co-Borrowers (in the form of an Officer's certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Agent), the Collateral Trustee, or persons representing themselves to be other Lenders and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Loan Agent, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, shall be entitled in all respects conclusively to assume that no such fact exists, and the Loan Agent shall have no liability hereunder for any payment made, or action taken, by it without such knowledge or notice. Section 3.7 Conversion. (a) At the option of a Converting Lender, on any Business Day (such Business Day, the "Conversion Date") all or a portion of any Secured Loan held by such Converting Lender may be converted into Class A-1AL Notes substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 to the Indenture in accordance with Section 2.14 of the Indenture upon delivery to the Co-Borrowers, the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Manager and the Rating Agency of a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto; provided that each conversion should be in a minimum amount of $250,000; provided, further, that any Class A-1AL Notes issued upon such conversion from Secured Loans into Class A-1AL Notes that are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the outstanding Class A-1AL Notes will be identified with separate CUSIP numbers; provided further that, if the Secured Loan to be converted has been assigned since the prior Payment Date (or, if no Payment Date has occurred since the incurrence of such Secured Loan, the 2024 Closing Date or other date of incurrence, as applicable) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then the Conversion Date shall only occur on a Payment Date (after the payment, in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof, of any interest accrued on the portion of the Secured Loan that has been so converted). The Conversion Date shall be no earlier than the fifth Business Day following the date such notice is delivered (or such earlier date as may be reasonably agreed to by the Converting Lender, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Manager and the Collateral Trustee) and may not be between a Record Date and a Payment Date. On the Conversion Date, the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A-1AL Notes will be increased by the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Secured Loan so converted and the Secured Loan so converted shall cease to be Outstanding and shall be deemed to have been repaid in full for all purposes under the Indenture and this Agreement. Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees to the terms of Section 2.14 of the Indenture and the applicable Exhibit A-1 to the Indenture. (b) Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein or in the Indenture, Class A- 1AL Notes may not be converted into Secured Loans at any time.

-8- (c) The Borrower and the Converting Lender shall each provide reasonable assistance to the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent in connection with such conversion, including, but not limited to, providing instructions to DTC. (d) If the Conversion Date is on a day other than a Payment Date, interest accrued on the Secured Loan so converted since the prior Payment Date (or, if no Payment Date has occurred since the incurrence of such Secured Loan, the 2024 Closing Date or other date of incurrence, as applicable) will, as of the Conversion Date, be deemed instead to have accrued on the Class A-1AL Notes for such time period and accrued interest on the applicable Secured Loan will no longer be due and owing hereunder. If the Conversion Date is on a Payment Date, interest accrued on the Secured Loan since the prior Payment Date (or, if no Payment Date has occurred since the incurrence of such Secured Loan, the 2024 Closing Date or other date of incurrence, as applicable) will be paid to the Lenders of the applicable Secured Loan on the related Conversion Date. Following the Conversion Date, the Class A-1AL Notes will accrue interest at the Interest Rate applicable to the Class A-1AL Notes, as set forth in the Indenture. (e) Each Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to exercise the Conversion Option concurrently with an assignment of all or a portion of its Secured Loan (an "Assignment/Conversion") such that the effective date of such assignment occurs on the related Conversion Date and the assignee receives Class A-1AL Notes in lieu of becoming a Lender hereunder by way of assignment. Any assignment made in connection with an Assignment/Conversion shall meet both the requirements for an assignment set forth in Section 8.4 and for conversion set forth in this Section 3.7. Any Lender electing to make an Assignment/Conversion shall deliver to the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Manager and the Co-Borrowers at least five Business Days prior to the Conversion Date, (x) an executed Assignment and Assumption Agreement, (y) a completed notice substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, and (z) the assignment fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.4(c) hereof. The assignee of such Secured Loan shall deliver to the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Manager and the Co-Borrowers at least five Business Days prior to the Conversion Date a transferee representation letter substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 to the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, if an Assignment/Conversion occurs on the 2024 Closing Date, the required documents described in this paragraph shall be delivered on the 2024 Closing Date. (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.7 to the contrary, the Collateral Manager may, solely in connection with the prepayment of the Secured Loan from Refinancing Proceeds in accordance with Section 3.3(b) hereof and the applicable provisions of the Indenture, require the Lenders to exercise the Conversion Option with a Conversion Date selected by the Collateral Manager that occurs on or after the date of notice of prepayment delivered in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Upon any such notice from the Collateral Manager, the Lenders hereby agree to exercise the Conversion Option to be effective on the Conversion Date selected by the Collateral Manager. Section 3.8 Optional Re-Pricing. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Indenture to the contrary, the Applicable Margin shall not be subject to re-pricing under the terms of Section 9.8 of the Indenture.

-9- ARTICLE IV CONDITIONS TO CREDIT EXTENSIONS Section 4.1 2024 Closing Date.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the Co-Borrowers’ obligations under the Indenture pursuant to the terms of Article V of the Indenture, the unpaid principal amount of the Secured Loans, together with the interest accrued thereon and all other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder in respect of the Secured Loans, shall automatically become immediately due and payable by the Borrower hereunder, subject to and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture, without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Co-Borrowers; provided that upon the rescission or annulment of the related Event of Default under the Indenture in accordance with the terms thereof, any such acceleration shall automatically be rescinded and annulled for all purposes hereunder; provided, further, that no such action shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

-14- ARTICLE VII THE COLLATERAL TRUSTEE AND THE LOAN AGENT Section 7.1 Collateral Trustee.

(b) The rights, protections, benefits, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Collateral Trustee as set forth in the Indenture, including Article VI thereof, shall also apply to the Collateral Trustee under this Agreement, mutatis mutandis. The Collateral Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in the Indenture, this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents to which it is a party and no implied covenants or obligations (fiduciary or otherwise) shall be read into the Indenture, this Agreement or other Transaction Documents against the Collateral Trustee. For avoidance of doubt, any successor to the Collateral Trustee under the Indenture shall be the Collateral Trustee under this Agreement. Section 7.2 Appointment of the Loan Agent. The Lenders hereby designate the Bank to act as Loan Agent hereunder. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Loan Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Loan Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Loan Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by or through its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Agent shall not have the right and authority to exercise any remedial right and power with respect to the Assets hereunder, under the Indenture or any other Collateral Documents. Section 7.3 Nature of Duties. The Loan Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Collateral Documents to which it is a party. None of the Loan Agent or any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith that it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or within its discretion hereunder, unless caused by its or their gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Loan Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Loan Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom,

-15- and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. No provision of this Agreement shall require the Loan Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it unless such risk or liability relates to its ordinary services. The Loan Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of the Loan Agent, unless it shall be proven that the Loan Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. Section 7.4 Lack of Reliance on the Loan Agent. Independently and without reliance upon the Loan Agent, each Lender, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Co-Borrowers in connection with the making and the continuance of the Secured Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Co-Borrowers and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Loan Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Secured Loans or at any time or times thereafter. The Loan Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Co-Borrowers or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the satisfaction of any of the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV hereof or the financial condition of the Co-Borrowers or the existence or possible existence of any Default. Section 7.5 Certain Rights of the Loan Agent. (a) The Loan Agent may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; (b) any request or direction of either of the Co-Borrowers mentioned herein may be sufficiently evidenced by a Borrower Order; (c) whenever in the administration of this Agreement, the Loan Agent shall (i) deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Loan Agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and rely upon an Officer's certificate or Borrower Order or (ii) be required to determine the value of any Assets or funds hereunder or the cash flows projected to be received therefrom, the Loan Agent may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely on reports of nationally recognized

-16- accountants, investment bankers or other Persons qualified to provide the information required to make such determination, including nationally recognized dealers in securities of the type being valued and securities quotation services; (d) as a condition to the taking or omitting of any action by it hereunder, the Loan Agent may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; (e) the Loan Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise or to honor any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request or direction of any Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, unless such Lenders shall have offered to the Loan Agent security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Agent against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) and liabilities which might reasonably be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; (f) the Loan Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, note or other documents; (g) the Loan Agent may execute any of the rights, privileges or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys; provided, that the Loan Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent or attorney appointed by the Loan Agent with due care; (h) the Loan Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes, suffers or omits to take that it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or within its discretion hereunder, other than acts or omissions constituting bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Loan Agent's duties hereunder; (i) the permissive rights of the Loan Agent to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be treated as a duty and the Loan Agent shall not be answerable for other than its bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; (j) nothing herein shall be construed to impose an obligation on the part of the Loan Agent to monitor, recalculate, evaluate or (absent manifest error) verify any report, certificate or information received from the Borrower, the Collateral Manager (unless and except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth herein), the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Trustee; (k) the Loan Agent shall not be responsible or liable for the actions or omissions of, or any inaccuracies in the records of, any non-Affiliated custodian, transfer agent, paying agent or calculation agent (other than itself in such capacities), clearing agency, loan syndication, administrative or similar agent, DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, or for the acts or omissions of the Collateral Manager or either of the Co-Borrowers;

-17- (l) the Loan Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of this Agreement or the powers granted hereunder; (m) the Loan Agent shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control (such acts include but are not limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war and interruptions, losses or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications services); (n) to the extent any defined term hereunder, or any calculation required to be made or determined by the Loan Agent hereunder, is dependent upon or defined by reference to GAAP, the Loan Agent shall be entitled to request and receive (and rely upon) instruction from the Borrower or the accountants identified, which may or may not be the Independent accountants appointed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.7 of the Indenture (and in the absence of its receipt of timely instruction therefrom, shall be entitled to obtain from an Independent accountant at the expense of the Borrower) as to the application of GAAP in such connection, in any instance; (o) the Loan Agent or its Affiliates are permitted to provide services and to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Loan Agent's economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Eligible Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Eligible Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Eligible Investments; if otherwise qualified, obligations of the Bank or any of its Affiliates shall qualify as Eligible Investments under the Indenture; (p) The Loan Agent shall not have any obligation to determine: (i) if a Collateral Obligation meets the criteria or eligibility restrictions imposed by the Indenture or (ii) if the Collateral Manager has not provided it with the information necessary for making such determination, whether the conditions specified in the definition of "Delivered" have been complied with; and (q) For all purposes hereunder and under the Indenture, the Loan Agent shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Event of Default unless a Trust Officer assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office responsible for the administration of this Agreement has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default or a Default is received by a Trust Officer of the Loan Agent at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Debt generally, either of the Co-Borrowers, this Agreement or the Indenture. For purposes of determining the Loan Agent's responsibility and liability hereunder, whenever reference is made in the Indenture to such an Event of Default or a Default, such reference shall be construed to refer only to such an Event of Default or a Default of which the Loan Agent is deemed to have notice as described in this clause. (r) In addition to its rights, protections, benefits, immunities and indemnities provided herein, the rights, protections, benefits, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Collateral Trustee as set forth in the Indenture, including Article VI thereof, and the

-18- Calculation Agent under the Collateral Administration Agreement, shall also apply to the Loan Agent under this Agreement, mutatis mutandis; provided that the Loan Agent shall be held to the standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement and the foregoing shall not impose upon the Loan Agent any of the duties or standards of care (including without limitation any duties of a prudent person) of the Collateral Trustee or the Calculation Agent.

If no Successor Loan Agent shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a Successor Loan Agent shall not have been delivered to the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee within 90 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Loan Agent, or any Lender, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a Successor Loan Agent satisfying the requirements of Section 7.10 herein. (c) The Loan Agent may be removed at any time by a Majority of the Controlling Class or the Collateral Manager at any time, or may be removed at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing by a Majority of the Controlling Class.

(e) The Borrower shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Loan Agent and each appointment of a Successor Loan Agent to each Rating Agency, the Collateral Trustee and to each Lender. Such notice shall include the name of the Successor Loan Agent and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Borrower fails to provide such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the Successor Loan Agent, the Successor Loan Agent shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Borrower.

Any entity into which the Loan Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Loan Agent shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Loan Agent, shall be the successor of the Loan Agent hereunder; provided that such entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VII hereof, without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. The Loan Agent shall give notice of such succession to each of the Co-Borrowers, the Collateral Manager and each Lender, and the Borrower shall give notice of such succession to the Rating Agency.

Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (i) is prohibited by, or requires the Bank to obtain any consent, authorization, approval or registration

Section 7.15 Withholding. If any amount is required by applicable law to be deducted or withheld from any payment to any Lender, such amount shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Lender. The Loan Agent is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to any Lender sufficient funds for the payment of any tax, including pursuant to FATCA and to timely remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. Such authorization shall not prevent the Loan Agent from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings. The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to any Lender shall be treated as cash distributed to such Lender at the time it is deducted or withheld by the Borrower or the Loan Agent, as applicable, and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Loan Agent may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 7.15. If any Lender wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Loan Agent shall reasonably cooperate with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in making such claim so long as such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to reimburse the Loan Agent for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Section 7.16 USA PATRIOT Act. Each of the Loan Agent and the Lenders hereby notifies the Co-Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107 56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Co-Borrowers and other information that will allow the Loan Agent and the Lenders to identify the Co-Borrowers in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. Section 7.17 Agent of the Lender Under the Risk Retention Letter. The Borrower hereby directs the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent to accept and acknowledge the Risk Retention Letter. Each of the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent acknowledge that they are being made an addressee of the Risk Retention Letter for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Debt, including the Lenders. In such capacity, each of the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent hereby agrees to act at the direction of Lenders holding a Majority of the Class A- 1A Loans to enforce or protect any rights and/or secure any remedies available to, and enforceable by, the Collateral Trustee and/or the Loan Agent, as the case may be, that arise from or in connection with the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent being made an addressee of the Risk Retention Letter for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Debt (including, the institution of any appropriate Proceedings, whether to compel enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in the Risk Retention Letter, to cure any failure or breach of a representation or warranty contained in the Risk Retention Letter, or to enforce any equitable decree or order arising from such Proceedings); provided, however, that the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent shall have no obligation to so act or otherwise enforce the provisions of the Risk Retention Letter in the absence of such direction. The rights and remedies acknowledged in this Section 7.17 shall not be (and are not intended to be) exclusive of any other right or remedy available to

-24- the Collateral Trustee and/or the Loan Agent, as the case may be. Each Lender hereunder acknowledges that each of the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent in taking any action in accordance with the Section 7.17 shall be provided, from the Lenders directing any such action hereunder, an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent (as applicable) including indemnification against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such direction. For the avoidance of doubt, provision of a reasonably acceptable indemnity shall be a condition precedent for the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent to follow any such direction. Nothing in this Section 7.17 shall obligate the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent to act on any direction that it reasonably determines to be contrary to (i) any of the terms of this Agreement or the Indenture, (ii) any duty or obligation that the Collateral Trustee or the Loan Agent, as applicable, may have hereunder or under the Indenture or (iii) applicable law, and the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent shall be fully protected in making any such determination. ARTICLE VIII MISCELLANEOUS Section 8.1 Certain Tax Matters. (a) Each Lender (including for purposes of this Section 8.1, any beneficial owner of an interest in the Debt) agrees to treat the Borrower, the Co-Borrower and the Debt as described in the “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” section of the Offering Circular for all U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes and will take no action inconsistent with such treatment unless required by law. (b) Each Lender will timely furnish the Borrower, the Collateral Trustee or their respective agents with any tax forms or certifications (including, without limitation, IRS Form W-9, an applicable IRS Form W-8 (together with all applicable attachments), or any successors to such IRS forms) that the Borrower, the Collateral Trustee or their respective agents reasonably request in order to (A) make payments to the Lender without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding, (B) qualify for a reduced rate of withholding in any jurisdiction from or through which they receive payments, and (C) satisfy reporting and other obligations under the Code, Treasury Regulations, or any other applicable law or regulation (including the Bermuda FATCA Legislation), and will update or replace such tax forms or certifications in accordance with their terms or subsequent amendments. Such Lender acknowledges that the failure to provide, update or replace any such tax forms or certifications may result in the imposition of withholding or back-up withholding on payments to the Lender, or to the Borrower. Amounts withheld by the Borrower or their agents that are, in their sole judgment, required to be withheld pursuant to applicable tax laws will be treated as having been paid to such Lender by the Borrower. (c) Each Lender will provide the Borrower or its agents with any correct, complete and accurate information or documentation that may be required for the Borrower to comply with FATCA and the Bermuda FATCA Legislation and to prevent the imposition of U.S. federal withholding tax under FATCA on payments to or for the benefit of the Borrower. Such Lender acknowledges that, in the event such Lender fails to provide such information or documentation for the purposes of FATCA, or to the extent that its ownership of Debt would

-25- otherwise cause the Borrower to be subject to any tax under FATCA, (A) the Borrower (and any agent acting on its behalf) is authorized to withhold amounts otherwise distributable to the investor as compensation for any amounts withheld from payments to or for the benefit of the Borrower as a result of such failure or such ownership, and (B) to the extent necessary to avoid an adverse effect on the Borrower as a result of such failure or such ownership, the Borrower will have the right to compel the investor to sell its Debt and, if such person does not sell its Debt within 10 Business Days after notice from the Borrower or its agents, the Borrower will have the right to sell such Debt at a public or private sale called and conducted in any manner permitted by law, and to remit the net proceeds of such sale (taking into account, in addition to other related costs and charges, any taxes incurred by the Borrower in connection with such sale) to such person as payment in full for such Debt. The Borrower may also assign each such Debt a separate securities identifier in the Borrower’s sole discretion. Each Lender agrees that the Borrower, the Collateral Trustee and/or their agents or representatives may (1) provide any information and documentation concerning its investment in its Debt to the Bermuda Monetary Authority in Bermuda, the IRS and any other relevant governmental, tax or regulatory authority and (2) take such other steps as they deem necessary or helpful to ensure that the Borrower complies with FATCA and the Bermuda FATCA Legislation. (d) Each Lender, if it is not a “United States person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), represents and agrees that (i) it (A) is not a bank (or an entity affiliated with a bank) extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code); (B) is not a “10 percent shareholder” with respect to the Borrower (or, for so long as the Subordinated Notes are held by a single Holder, such Holder of the Subordinated Notes) within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) or section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code; and (C) is not a “controlled foreign corporation” that is related to the Borrower (or, for so long as the Subordinated Notes are held by a single Holder, such Holder of the Subordinated Notes) within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code; or (ii) it has provided an IRS Form W-8ECI representing that all payments received or to be received by it from the Borrower are effectively connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States and includible in its gross income; or (iii) it is eligible for benefits under an income tax treaty with the United States that eliminates U.S. federal income taxation of payments on the Debt. (e) [Reserved]. (f) Each Lender represents that it is not a member of an “expanded group” (as defined in Treasury regulations section 1.385-1(c)(4)) with respect to which a beneficial owner of Subordinated Notes is a “covered member” (as defined in Treasury regulations section 1.385- 1(c)(2)), except to the extent that the Borrower or its agents have provided such Lender with an express waiver of this representation. Section 8.2 Right of Setoff. Each Lender hereby waives any right of setoff that the Lender may have against the Co-Borrowers in respect of any obligation arising hereunder. Section 8.3 Notices. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing

-26- (including telegraphic, telex, telecopier or electronic mail (if an e-mail address for the relevant party is set forth on Schedule 2)) and mailed, emailed, telecopied, cabled or delivered, if to the Co-Borrowers, the Collateral Manager, any Rating Agency, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee and/or any Lender, at its address provided in writing to the Co-Borrowers and Loan Agent or, in the case of any Lender becoming party hereto after the 2024 Closing Date, the related Assignment and Assumption Agreement; or, at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given or made as of: the date so delivered, if delivered personally or by overnight courier; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; if sent by electronic mail (if an e-mail address for the relevant party is set forth on Schedule 2), when received in the electronic mail account thereof and three (3) calendar days after mailing if sent by registered or certified mail (except that a notice of change of address shall not be deemed to have been given until actually received by the addressee). The Loan Agent shall provide a copy of any notice or communication received from a Lender to the Collateral Trustee, the Co-Borrowers and the Collateral Manager. (b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent may, prior to receipt of such written confirmation, act without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Loan Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, in good faith to be from the Co-Borrowers and/or the Collateral Manager (including an Officer thereof). In each such case, each of the Co-Borrowers hereby waives the right to dispute the Collateral Trustee or the Loan Agent's record of the terms of such telephonic notice absent manifest error. (c) For so long as State Street Bank and Trust Company is the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee, all notices that are required to be delivered to the Lenders by the Loan Agent or the Collateral Trustee may be made available via the Collateral Trustee Website and such posting on the website shall be considered delivery thereof. The Collateral Trustee Website shall initially be located at ▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇. Parties that are unable to use the above distribution option are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the customer service desk and indicating such. The Collateral Trustee shall have the right to change the way such statements and the Transaction Documents are distributed in order to make such distribution more convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties and the Collateral Trustee shall provide timely and adequate notification to all above parties regarding any such changes. As a condition to access to the Collateral Trustee Website, the Collateral Trustee may require registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer. The Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to rely on but shall not be responsible for the content or accuracy of any information provided in the Monthly Report and the Distribution Report which the Collateral Trustee disseminates in accordance with this Agreement or the Indenture and may affix thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion. (d) In the event that any provision in this Agreement calls for any notice or document to be delivered simultaneously to the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent and any other person or entity, the Collateral Trustee's and the Loan Agent's receipt of such notice or document shall entitle the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent to assume that such notice was delivered to such other person or entity unless otherwise expressly specified herein or unless the

-27- Collateral Trustee or Loan Agent is responsible for sending such notice or document pursuant to the Indenture or hereunder. (e) The Loan Agent (in each of its capacities) agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Documents sent by unsecured email, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that any Person providing such instructions or directions shall provide to the Loan Agent an incumbency certificate listing authorized Persons designated to provide such instructions or directions, which incumbency certificate shall be amended whenever a person is added or deleted from the listing. If such person elects to give the Loan Agent email or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Loan Agent in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Loan Agent’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Loan Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Loan Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any person providing such instructions or directions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Loan Agent, including without limitation the risk of the Loan Agent acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties and acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by it and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of such instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances. Section 8.4 Benefit of Agreement; Participations; Assignment. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto to the extent permitted under this Section 8.4; provided, that, (i) except as provided in Section 14.6 of the Indenture, the Co-Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender, the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent, and (ii) except as provided in Section 8.4(c) hereof, no Lender may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder. (b) Participations. Each Lender may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder to one or more commercial banks, insurance companies, funds or other financial institutions subject to the terms of this Section 8.4(b). In the event of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant's rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Co-Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation. In addition, no Lender shall transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, except that the Lender may grant the right in the participation to direct the Lender to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Secured Loan in which such participant is participating or waive any prepayment thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-

-28- default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, (y) release all or substantially all of the Assets (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) or (z) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Co-Borrowers of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (except as provided in Section 14.6 of the Indenture) herein. Each participation shall be subject to the related participant providing the Lender the representations and warranties applicable to Lenders set forth in Section 8.16 herein. (c) Assignments. (i) Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, such Lender's Secured Loan) to one or more commercial banks, insurance companies, funds or other financial institutions (including one or more Lenders) (x) if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the Co-Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and (y) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without the consent of the Co-Borrowers; provided that, the Co-Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment if it does not provide its written objection within 10 Business Days of receiving a request for consent to a proposed assignment. No consent of the Co-Borrowers shall be required for any assignment by a Lender to (x) an Affiliate of such Lender or (y) another Lender. If any Lender so assigns all or a part of its rights hereunder, any reference in this Agreement to such assigning Lender shall thereafter refer to such Lender and to the respective assignee to the extent of their respective interests and the respective assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were such assigning Lender. (ii) Each assignment pursuant to this Section 8.4(c) shall be effected by the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender executing an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (an "Assignment and Assumption Agreement"), which Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A (appropriately completed); provided that, in each case, unless otherwise consented to by the Co-Borrowers, the Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall contain a representation and warranty by the assignee to the Loan Agent and the Co-Borrowers that such assignee is an Approved Lender. In the event of (and at the time of) any such assignment, either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender shall pay to the Loan Agent a nonrefundable assignment fee of $3,500. No transfer or assignment under this Section 8.4(c) shall be effective until recorded by the Loan Agent on the Loan Register pursuant to Section 8.15. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 8.4(c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned interest in the Secured Loans. Each Lender and the Co-Borrowers agree to execute such documents (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (to the extent authorized to do so under such Credit Documents)) as shall be necessary to effect the foregoing. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Secured Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank. Section 8.5 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Co-Borrowers and the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or

-29- under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder, except as expressly set forth herein or therein. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Co-Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Co- Borrowers or any other Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Lenders acknowledge that their ability to exercise remedies hereunder is limited by the provisions (including any restrictions on such remedies) of the Indenture. Section 8.6 Payments Pro Rata. (a) The Loan Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Co-Borrowers in respect of any Secured Loans hereunder and pursuant to the Indenture, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has expressly waived its right to receive its pro rata share thereof) pro rata based upon their Applicable Outstanding Percentage. (b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, its Secured Loans or fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such amount then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such amount then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender shall hold such amounts in trust for the applicable Lender and return such amounts to the Loan Agent for distribution to the applicable Lender as soon as reasonably practicable.
