INTRODUCTION

The following entities hereby request an order (the “Order”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ Commission ”) pursuant to Sections 17(d), 57(a)(4) and 57(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), and Rule 17d-1 promulgated under the 1940 Act, authorizing certain joint transactions that otherwise may be prohibited by Sections 17(d) and 57(a)(4):¹

Golub Capital BDC, Inc. (“GBDC”);

Golub Capital Investment Corporation (“GCIC”);

GC Advisors LLC, GBDC’s and GCIC’s investment adviser (“GC Advisors”). The term “Adviser” means (a) GC Advisors, (b) the “Controlled Advisers” set forth in Schedule A hereto, each of which is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”) and is controlled by or under common control with GC Advisors, and (c) any future investment adviser that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with GC Advisors and is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act; and

The investment vehicles set forth in Schedule A hereto, each of which is an entity whose investment adviser is an Adviser (the “Existing Affiliated Funds”), and the general partners or managing members of those Existing Affiliated Funds, each also set forth in Schedule A hereto (the “Affiliated Fund GPs”).

Unless otherwise indicated, all section and rule references herein are to sections of, and rules under, the 1940 Act.

Page 3 of 50

The Regulated Funds,² the Advisers, the Existing Affiliated Funds and the Affiliated Fund GPs may be referred to herein as the “Applicants.”

The relief requested in this application (the “Application”) would allow one or more Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds³ to participate in the same investment opportunities through a proposed co-investment program where such participation would otherwise be prohibited under Sections 17(d) and 57(a)(4) and the rules under the 1940 Act (the “Co-Investment Program”). For purposes of this Application, a “Co-Investment Transaction” shall mean any transaction in which one or more Regulated Funds (or a Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary) participated together with one or more Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds in reliance on the Order and a “Potential Co-Investment Transaction” shall mean any investment opportunity in which the Regulated Funds (or its Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary) could not participate together with one or more Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds without obtaining and relying on the Order.⁴ The Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds also may, at times, invest in the same issuer without engaging in a prohibited joint transaction but then find that subsequent transactions with that issuer would be prohibited under the 1940 Act. Through the proposed “onboarding process,” discussed below, the Applicants would, under certain circumstances, be permitted to rely on the Order to complete subsequent Co-Investment Transactions.

A Regulated Fund may, from time to time, form one or more Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiaries. A Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary would be prohibited from investing in a Co-Investment Transaction with another Regulated Fund or any Affiliated Fund because it would be a company controlled by the applicable Regulated Fund for purposes of Sections 17(d) and 57(a)(4) and Rule 17d-1. Applicants request that a Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary be permitted to participate in Co-Investment Transactions in lieu of the applicable Regulated Fund, and that such Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary’s participation in any such transaction be treated, for purposes of the requested order, as though the Regulated Fund were participating directly. Applicants represent that this treatment is justified because a Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary would have no purpose other than serving as a holding vehicle for the Regulated Fund’s investments and, therefore, no conflicts of interest could arise between such Regulated Fund and its respective Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiaries. The Board⁵ of the Regulated Fund would make all relevant determinations under the conditions with regard to a Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary’s participation in a Co-Investment Transaction, and the Board would be informed of, and take into consideration, any proposed use of a Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary in the place of the Regulated Fund. If a Regulated Fund proposes to participate in the same Co-Investment Transaction with

The term “Regulated Funds” means GBDC, GCIC, and any future closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC (as defined below) or is registered under the 1940 Act, whose investment adviser is an Adviser and who intends to participate in the Co-Investment Program (as defined below).

The term “Affiliated Fund” means (i) the Existing Affiliated Funds and (ii) any Future Affiliated Fund. “Future Affiliated Fund” means an entity (i) whose investment adviser is an Adviser and (ii) that would be an investment company but for Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act.

⁴

The term “Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary” means an entity (a) whose sole business purpose is to hold one or more investments on behalf of a Regulated Fund (and, in the case of an SBIC Subsidiary (as defined below), maintain a license under the SBA Act (as defined below) and issue debentures guaranteed by the SBA (as defined below)); (b) that is wholly-owned by a Regulated Fund (with such Regulated Fund at all times holding, beneficially and of record, 100% of the voting and economic interests); (c) with respect to which the Board of the Regulated Fund has the sole authority to make all determinations with respect to the Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary’s participation under the conditions to this Application; and (d) that is an entity that would be an investment company but for Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act. The term “SBIC Subsidiary” means a Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary that is licensed by the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) to operate under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended, (the “SBA Act”) as a small business investment company (a “SBIC”).

⁵

The term “Board” means the board of directors (or equivalent) of a Regulated Fund.

Page 4 of 50

any of its Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiaries, its Board will also be informed of, and take into consideration, the relative participation of the Regulated Fund and the Wholly-Owned Investment Subsidiary.

All existing entities that currently intend to rely on the requested Order have been named as Applicants. Any other existing or future entity that relies on the order in the future will comply with the terms and conditions of this Application.

APPLICANTS

Golub Capital BDC

GBDC is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act.⁶ GBDC, which was organized in Delaware on November 9, 2009 as a limited liability company and converted into a Delaware corporation on April 13, 2010, completed its initial public offering on April 14, 2010. GBDC has made an election to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), and intends to continue to make such election in the future. GBDC’s principal place of business is 150 South Wacker Drive, Suite 800, Chicago, Illinois 60606.

GBDC seeks to maximize the total return to its stockholders through both current income and capital appreciation through debt and minority equity investments. GBDC intends to achieve its investment objective by (1) accessing the established loan origination channels developed by Golub Capital LLC and its affiliates (collectively “Golub Capital”), a leading lender to middle-market companies, (2) selecting investments within its core middle-market company focus, (3) partnering with experienced sponsors, (4) implementing the disciplined underwriting standards of Golub Capital and (5) drawing upon the aggregate experience and resources of Golub Capital. GBDC expects that its income will be generated primarily from the difference between the interest income generated by its investments and the cost of its capital. GBDC believes that its investment strategy will allow GBDC to generate cash available for distribution to its stockholders and to provide competitive total returns to its stockholders.

GBDC’s business and affairs are managed under the direction of its Board. GBDC’s Board consists of six members, four of whom are not “interested persons” of GBDC as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (“Non-Interested Directors”).⁷ GBDC’s Board has delegated daily management and investment authority to GC Advisors pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement.⁸ An affiliate of GC Advisors, Golub Capital LLC,

⁶

Section 2(a)(48) defines a BDC to be any closed-end investment company that operates for the purpose of making investments in securities described in section 55(a)(1) through 55(a)(3) of the 1940 Act and makes available significant managerial assistance with respect to the issuers of such securities. The Company filed its election to be a BDC on April 12, 2010.

⁷

Currently, Lawrence E. Golub serves as a Director and Chairman of the Board of each of GBDC and GCIC and David B. Golub serves as a Director and Chief Executive Officer of GBDC and as a Director, President and Chief Executive Officer of GCIC (“Principals”). Messrs. Lawrence E. Golub and David B. Golub and certain trusts for the benefit of their families also have direct or indirect beneficial ownership and financial interests in certain of the Affiliated Funds, GC Advisors and other Applicants. Messrs. Lawrence E. Golub and David B. Golub will not have a direct or indirect financial interest in any Co-Investment Transaction, other than through any direct or indirect interest they may have in the Affiliated Funds, GC Advisors and other Applicants. No Director who is a Non-Interested Director with respect to the Co-Investment Program will have a direct or indirect financial interest in any Co-Investment Transaction or any interest in any portfolio company, other than through an interest in the securities of a Regulated Fund.

⁸

The term “Investment Advisory Agreement” means, as applicable, (i) the investment advisory agreement by and between GC Advisors and GBDC, (ii) the investment advisory agreement by and between GC Advisors and GCIC, and (iii) any investment advisory agreement to be entered into by an Adviser and a Regulated Fund.

Page 5 of 50

provides the administrative services necessary for GBDC to operate, such as furnishing GBDC with office facilities and equipment and providing clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services at such facilities.

Golub Capital Investment Corporation

GCIC is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. GCIC was incorporated in Maryland on September 22, 2014 and commenced operations on December 31, 2014. GCIC intends to make an election to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. GCIC’s principal place of business is 150 South Wacker Drive, Suite 800, Chicago, Illinois 60606.

GCIC seeks to maximize the total return to its stockholders through both current income and capital appreciation through debt and minority equity investments. GCIC intends to achieve its investment objective by (1) accessing the established loan origination channels developed by Golub Capital, (2) selecting investments within its core middle-market company focus, (3) partnering with experienced sponsors, (4) implementing the disciplined underwriting standards of Golub Capital and (5) drawing upon the aggregate experience and resources of Golub Capital. GCIC expects that its income will be generated primarily from the difference between the interest income generated by its investments and the cost of its capital. GCIC believes that its investment strategy will allow GCIC to generate cash available for distribution to its stockholders and to provide competitive total returns to its stockholders.

GCIC’s business and affairs are managed under the direction of its Board. GCIC’s Board consists of the same six members as GBDC’s Board, four of whom are Non-Interested Directors. GCIC’s Board has delegated daily management and investment authority to GC Advisors pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement. An affiliate of GC Advisors, Golub Capital LLC, provides the administrative services necessary for GCIC to operate, such as furnishing GCIC with office facilities and equipment and providing clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services at such facilities.

The Advisers

GC Advisors, a Delaware limited liability company that is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act, serves as the investment adviser to each of GBDC and GCIC pursuant to the applicable Investment Advisory Agreement. Subject to the overall supervision of their respective Boards, GC Advisors will manage the day-to-day operations of, and provide investment advisory and management services to, each of GBDC and GCIC. Under the terms of each Investment Advisory Agreement, GC Advisors will: (i) determine the composition of the investment portfolio of the applicable Regulated Fund, the nature and timing of the changes to such portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identify, evaluate and negotiate the structure of investments (including performing due diligence on prospective portfolio companies); (iii) close and monitor investments; and (iv) determine the securities and other assets to be purchased, retained or sold. GC Advisors’ services under each Investment Advisory Agreement will not be exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services to other entities.

Golub Capital LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GC Advisors, and, pursuant to a staffing agreement with GC Advisors (the “Staffing Agreement”), Golub Capital LLC makes experienced investment professionals available to GC Advisors and provides access to the senior investment personnel of Golub Capital LLC and its affiliates. The employees furnished by Golub Capital LLC under the Staffing Agreement render advice in their capacity as persons associated with GC Advisors and subject, in that capacity, to the supervision of GC Advisors (and not Golub Capital LLC).

That the relationship between Golub Capital LLC, GC Advisors and the investment professionals is intended to promote efficiency with respect to human resources, tax and employment matters, and not to allow Golub Capital LLC to operate an advisory business, is clear in the Staffing Agreement, pursuant to which such investment professionals are made available to GC Advisors. In particular, the Staffing Agreement was implemented in order for persons employed by Golub Capital LLC to provide services across a series of entities controlled by, or

Page 6 of 50

under common control with, Golub Capital LLC without requiring those persons to be employed by each of the individual entities (or requiring those individual entities to each sponsor separate employee benefit plans, prepare tax reporting forms for employees or have similar administrative capabilities). Under the Staffing Agreement, Golub Capital LLC does nothing more than make certain of its personnel available to provide portfolio management, research, administrative services and other related services to GC Advisors and, through GC Advisors, to clients of GC Advisors; it does not engage in the provision of advice of any type (investment or otherwise). The compensation and routine overhead expenses of Golub Capital LLC personnel are provided and paid for by GC Advisors on a direct cost reimbursement basis. The Staffing Agreement provides that, to the extent an employee of Golub Capital LLC is providing advisory services, such employee is subject to the oversight and control of GC Advisors, including its officers (including the chief compliance officer) and managers, and the services provided to GC Advisors and its clients are exclusively in the employee’s capacity as a supervised person of GC Advisors. To that end, such employees are subject to the Code of Ethics of GC Advisors, as adopted under Rule 204(A)-1 under the Advisers Act, and all of the compliance policies and procedures of GC Advisors.

The Company believes that these arrangements are analogous to the independent contractor arrangements in the no-action letter issued to Corrinne Wood⁹ in which the Staff advised that “no problem would arise if an independent [contractor] provides investment advice solely within the scope of his employment with [the registrant] (as an Associated Person), and if disclosure of this fact is made in [the registrant]’s Form ADV and to the client.” The relationship between Golub Capital LLC and GC Advisors as well as the terms of the Staffing Agreement were discussed at the organizational meetings of the Boards of both GBDC and GCIC prior to each of the Boards authorizing GBDC and GCIC to enter into the applicable Investment Advisory Agreement.

GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser currently serves as investment adviser to each of the Existing Affiliated Funds. GBDC and GCIC may seek to co-invest with the Affiliated Funds. As used in this Application, the term “investment adviser” refers to the entity that provides investment advisory services to the Existing Affiliated Funds notwithstanding that the relevant underlying documentation for an Existing Affiliated Fund may use different terminology, including “collateral manager.”

II.

RELIEF FOR PROPOSED CO-INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Co-Investment in Portfolio Companies by the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds

Mechanics of the Co-Investment Program

In selecting investments for each Regulated Fund, GC Advisors will separately consider only the investment objective, investment policies, investment position, capital available for investment, and other pertinent factors applicable to that particular Regulated Fund. Likewise, when selecting investments for the Affiliated Funds, GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser will select investments separately for each Affiliated Fund, considering, in each case, only the investment objective, investment policies, investment position, capital available for investment, and other pertinent factors applicable to that particular Affiliated Fund. The investment objectives and strategies (the “Objectives and Strategies”) of each Regulated Fund, as described in its registration statements or other filings made with the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its reports to stockholders, and the investment objectives and strategies of the Affiliated Funds are substantially similar, and GC Advisors anticipates that a portfolio company that is an appropriate investment for one or more Regulated Funds will normally also be an appropriate investment for one or more Affiliated Funds. Therefore, to the extent a Potential Co-Investment Transaction falls within the investment objectives and strategies of one or more Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds, each Regulated Fund intends to co-invest with the Affiliated Funds, with certain exceptions based on factors such as available capital, investment size or diversification.¹⁰ GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers currently share offices and frequently communicate to assist one another in providing investment management services to the Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds. GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers have more than 200 employees, the majority of which work on matters for GC Advisors and one or more Controlled Advisers and information about potential investment opportunities is routinely disseminated among GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers. The personnel overlap and coordination among GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers ensures that all relevant investment opportunities will be brought to the attention of each Regulated Fund. GC Advisors will receive all information regarding all investment opportunities that fall within the then-current Objectives and Strategies of such Regulated Fund.

Under the Co-Investment Program, pursuant to written policies and procedures adopted by GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers (the “Allocation Policy”), each Potential Co-Investment Transaction would be allocated between the participating Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds pro rata based on the relative capital available for investment of the participants. The amount of each Regulated Fund’s capital available for investment (“Available Capital”) will be determined based on the amount of cash on hand, existing commitments and reserves, if any, the targeted leverage level, targeted asset mix and other investment policies and restrictions set from time to time by the

¹⁰

A Regulated Fund, however, will not be obligated to invest, or co-invest, when investment opportunities are referred to them.

Page 16 of 50

Board of the applicable Regulated Fund or imposed by applicable laws, rules, regulations or interpretations. Likewise, an Affiliated Fund’s Available Capital is determined based on the amount of cash on hand, existing commitments and reserves, if any, the targeted leverage level, targeted asset mix and other investment policies and restrictions set by the Affiliate Fund’s directors, general partners or adviser or imposed by applicable laws, rules, regulations or interpretations. With respect to participation in a Potential Co-Investment Transaction by a Regulated Fund, each Potential Co-Investment Transaction and the proposed allocation of each investment opportunity would be approved prior to the actual investment by the Required Majority of the applicable Board.¹¹ The information provided to the Eligible Directors about a Potential Co-Investment Transaction will include information about the Available Capital of such Regulated Fund and the other participating Regulated Funds and/or Affiliated Funds to assist the Eligible Directors with their review of the investments by such Regulated Fund for compliance with the Allocation Policy. Additionally GC Advisors will regularly review with each Board the Allocation Policy and how the Allocation Policy has been applied in the context of the investments by each Regulated Fund. No Eligible Director will have a direct or indirect financial interest in any Co-Investment Transaction, other than through any interest such Eligible Director may have in securities of a Regulated Fund. All subsequent activity (i.e., exits or follow-on investments) in a Co-Investment Transaction will be made pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in this Application. The Co-Investment Program requires that the terms, conditions, price, class of securities, settlement date, and registration rights applicable to a Regulated Fund’s purchase be the same as those applicable to the purchase by the other participating Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds.

As noted above, all subsequent activity (i.e., to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of an investment or to complete a Follow-On Investment¹²) in respect of an investment acquired in a Co-Investment Transaction will also be made in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Application. With respect to the pro rata dispositions and Follow-On Investments provided in conditions 7 and 9, a participating Regulated Fund may participate in a pro rata disposition or Follow-On Investment without obtaining prior approval of the Required Majority, if, among other things: (i) the proposed participation of each Affiliated Fund and Regulated Fund in such disposition or Follow-On Investment is proportionate to its outstanding investments in the issuer immediately preceding the disposition or Follow-On Investment, as the case may be; and (ii) the applicable Board has approved such Regulated Fund’s participation in pro rata dispositions and Follow-On Investments as being in the best interests of such Regulated Fund. If the Board of a Regulated Fund does not so approve, any such disposition or Follow-On Investment will be submitted to the Eligible Directors. The Board of a Regulated Fund may at any time rescind, suspend or qualify their respective approval of pro rata dispositions and Follow-On Investments with the result that all dispositions and/or Follow-On Investments must be submitted to the Eligible Directors.

The Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds also may, at times, invest in the same issuer without engaging in a prohibited joint transaction but then find that subsequent transactions with that issuer would be prohibited under the 1940 Act (a “Pre-Boarding Investment”). In such cases, Applicants would be permitted to rely on the Order to complete subsequent Co-Investment Transactions, subject to the enhanced review requirements of condition 8, in the case of dispositions, and condition 10, in the case of Follow-On Investments. These enhanced review requirements constitute an “onboarding process” whereby Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds may utilize the Order to participate in Co-Investment Transactions even though they already hold investments in the same issuer. For a given issuer, the participating Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds need to comply with these requirements only for the first Co-Investment Transaction. Subsequent Co-Investment Transactions with respect to the issuer will be governed by conditions 7 and 9 under the standard review process.

¹¹

The term “Required Majority” has the meaning provided in section 57(o) of the 1940 Act. The term “Eligible Directors” means the directors who are eligible to vote under section 57(o) of the 1940 Act.

¹²

“Follow-On Investment” means any additional investment in an existing portfolio company, including the exercise of warrants, conversion privileges or other similar rights to acquire additional securities of the portfolio company.

Page 17 of 50

Under condition 16, if an Adviser, the Principals, any person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with an Adviser or the Principals, and the Affiliated Funds (collectively, the “Holders”) own in the aggregate more than 25% of the outstanding voting securities of a Regulated Fund (“Shares”), then the Holders will vote such Shares as directed by an independent third party when voting on (1) the election of directors; (2) the removal of one or more directors; or (3) all other matters under either the 1940 Act or applicable State law affecting the Board’s composition, size or manner of election.

Applicants believe that this condition will ensure that the Non-Interested Directors will act independently in evaluating the Co-Investment Program, because the ability of an Adviser or the Principals to influence the Non-Interested Directors by a suggestion, explicit or implied, that the Non-Interested Directors can be removed will be limited significantly. The Non-Interested Directors shall evaluate and approve any such voting trust or proxy adviser, taking into account its qualifications, reputation for independence, cost to the shareholders, and other factors they deem relevant.

Reasons for the Co-Investment Program

The Applicants believe the Co-Investment Program will increase favorable investment opportunities for the Regulated Funds. However, the Co-Investment Program will be implemented only if it is approved by the Required Majority on the basis that it would be advantageous for the Regulated Funds to have the additional capital from the other Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds available to meet the funding requirements of portfolio companies. A BDC that makes investments of the type contemplated by each of GBDC and GCIC typically limits its participation in any one transaction to a specific dollar amount, which may be determined by legal or prudential limits on exposure to a single investment. In addition, the Code imposes diversification requirements on companies, such as GBDC and GCIC, which seek certain favorable tax treatment under Subchapter M of the Code.¹³

In view of the foregoing, in cases where GC Advisors identifies an investment opportunity that requires a capital commitment that exceeds a Regulated Fund’s legal or prudential limits, it must seek the participation of other entities with similar investment styles. The availability of the other Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds as investing partners of a Regulated Fund may thus alleviate that necessity in certain circumstances and allow such Regulated Fund to participate in attractive opportunities at levels that are appropriate.

A Regulated Fund could lose some investment opportunities if it could not provide all of the financing needed by a potential portfolio company. Portfolio companies may reject an offer of funding arranged by GC Advisors due to the inability of a Regulated Fund to commit the full amount of financing required by the portfolio company in a timely manner (i.e., without the delay that typically would be associated with obtaining single-transaction authorization from the Commission). By reducing the number of occasions on which the individual or aggregate investment limits of a Regulated Fund require GC Advisors to arrange a syndication with unaffiliated entities, the Regulated Funds will likely be required to forego fewer suitable investment opportunities. With the assets of the other Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds available for co-investment, there should be an increase in the number of opportunities accessible to each Regulated Fund.

GC Advisors and the Boards of GBDC and GCIC believe that it will be advantageous for GBDC and GCIC to co-invest with the Affiliated Funds, and that such investments would be consistent with the investment objective, investment policies, investment positions, investment strategies, investment restrictions, regulatory requirements, and other pertinent factors applicable to each of GBDC and GCIC.

GC Advisors and the Boards of GBDC and GCIC also believe that co-investment by GBDC, GCIC and the Affiliated Funds will afford GBDC and GCIC, respectively, the ability to achieve greater diversification and, together with the other Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds, the opportunity to exercise greater influence on the portfolio companies in which GBDC, GCIC and the participating Affiliated Funds co-invest. GC Advisors and

¹³

See I.R.C. § 851(b)(4).

Page 18 of 50

the Boards of GBDC and GCIC believe that the allocation methodology described herein provides for the equitable allocation of co-investments and takes into account the current capacity of GBDC, GCIC and participating Affiliated Funds to make the type of investment presented by the co-investment opportunity. GC Advisors does not have incentive to favor a co-investing Affiliated Fund over GBDC or GCIC because the Affiliated Funds, GCIC and GBDC have similar compensation structures, which include a base management fee and a performance fee component, and although the precise formulation of those fees may vary among co-investing entities, the fees paid by each of GBDC and GCIC to GC Advisors are comparable to the fees paid by the Affiliated Funds. Additionally, GC Advisors typically serves as the primary contact with an issuer in a Potential Co-Investment Transaction, which would limit the ability of a co-investing entity to seek to increase its desired amount in anticipation of a shortage of the opportunity.

Applicable Law

Sections 17(d), 57(a)(4) and 57(i) of the 1940 Act, and Rule 17d-1 thereunder

Section 17(d) of the 1940 Act generally prohibits an affiliated person (as defined in Section 2(a)(3) of the 1940 Act), or an affiliated person of such affiliated person, of a registered closed-end investment company acting as principal, from effecting any transaction in which the registered closed-end investment company is a joint or a joint and several participant, in contravention of such rules as the Commission may prescribe for the purpose of limiting or preventing participation by the registered closed-end investment company on a basis different from or less advantageous than that of such other participant. Rule 17d-1 generally prohibits participation by a registered investment company and an affiliated person (as defined in Section 2(a)(3) of the 1940 Act) or principal underwriter for that investment company, or an affiliated person of such affiliated person or principal underwriter, in any “joint enterprise or other joint arrangement or profit-sharing plan,” as defined in the rule, without prior approval by the Commission by order upon application.

Section 57(a)(4) makes it unlawful for any person who is related to a BDC in a manner described in Section 57(b), acting as principal, knowingly to effect any transaction in which the BDC is a joint or a joint and several participant with that person in contravention of rules and regulations as the Commission may prescribe for the purpose of limiting or preventing participation by the BDC on a basis less advantageous than that of the other participant. Although the Commission has not adopted any rules expressly under Section 57(a)(4), Section 57(i) provides that the rules under Section 17(d) applicable to registered closed-end investment companies (e.g. , Rule 17d-1) are, in the interim, deemed to apply to transactions subject to Section 57(a). Rule 17d-1, as made applicable to BDCs by Section 57(i), prohibits any person who is related to a BDC in a manner described in Section 57(b), as modified by Rule 57b-1, acting as principal, from participating in, or effecting any transaction in connection with, any joint enterprise or other joint arrangement or profit-sharing plan in which the BDC is a participant, unless an application regarding the joint enterprise, arrangement, or profit-sharing plan has been filed with the Commission and has been granted by an order entered prior to the submission of the plan or any modification thereof to security holders for approval, or prior to its adoption or modification if not so submitted.

In passing upon applications under Rule 17d-1, the Commission will consider whether the participation by the Regulated Fund in such joint transaction is consistent with the provisions, policies, and purposes of the 1940 Act and the extent to which such participation is on a basis different from or less advantageous than that of other participants.

Section 57(b) of the 1940 Act and Rule 57b-1 thereunder

Section 57(b), as modified by Rule 57b-1, specifies the persons to whom the prohibitions of Section 57(a)(4) apply. These persons include the following: (1) any director, officer, employee, or member of an advisory board of a BDC or any person (other than the BDC itself) who is, within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3)(C), an affiliated person of any such person; or (2) any investment adviser or promoter of, general partner in, principal underwriter for, or person directly or indirectly either controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a BDC (except the BDC itself and any person who, if it were not directly or indirectly controlled by the BDC, would

Page 19 of 50

not be directly or indirectly under the control of a person who controls the BDC), or any person who is, within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3)(C) or (D), an affiliated person of such person.

Rule 57b-1 under the 1940 Act exempts certain persons otherwise related to a BDC in a manner described in Section 57(b)(2) of the 1940 Act from being subject to the prohibitions of Section 57(a). Specifically, this rule states that the provisions of Section 57(a) shall not apply to any person: (a) solely because that person is directly or indirectly controlled by a BDC; or (b) solely because that person is directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, a person described in (a) of the rule or is an officer, director, partner, copartner, or employee of a person described in (a) of the rule.

Section 2(a)(9) defines “control” as the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company, unless such power is solely the result of an official position with such company. The statute also sets forth the interpretation that any person who owns beneficially, either directly or through one or more controlled companies, more than 25 percent of the voting securities of a company shall be presumed to control such company; any person who does not so own more than 25 percent of the voting securities of a company shall be presumed not to control such company; and a natural person shall be presumed not to be a controlled person.

Sections 2(a)(3)(C) and (D) define an “affiliated person” of another person as: (C) any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such other person; and (D) any officer, director, partner, copartner, or employee of such other person.

C. Need for Relief

Certain transactions effected as part of the Co-Investment Program may be prohibited by Sections 17(d) and 57(a)(4) and Rule 17d-1 without a prior exemptive order of the Commission to the extent that the Affiliated Funds fall within the category of persons described by Section 17(d) or Section 57(b), as modified by Rule 57b-1 thereunder with respect to a Regulated Fund. Because GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser is the investment adviser to each of the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds, the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds may be deemed to be affiliated persons within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) if the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds are deemed to be controlled by or under common control with an Adviser. Thus, each Regulated Fund and Affiliated Fund could be deemed to be a person related to a Regulated Fund in a manner described by Section 57(b) and therefore subject to the restrictions of Section 57(a)(4) and Rule 17d-1 in connection with its participation in the Co-Investment Program.

D. Requested Relief

Accordingly, the Applicants respectfully request an Order of the Commission, pursuant to Sections 17(d), 57(a)(4) and 57(i) and Rule 17d-1, permitting the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds to participate in the Co-Investment Program.

E. Precedents

The Commission has granted co-investment relief on numerous occasions in recent years.¹⁴ Although the various precedents may involve somewhat different allocation formulae, approval procedures, and presumptions for

co-investment transactions to protect the interests of public investors in the BDC than the ones described in this Application, Applicants submit that the formulae and procedures set forth as conditions for the relief requested herein are consistent with the range of investor protection found in the cited orders. We note, in particular, that the co-investment protocol to be followed by the Applicants here is substantially similar to the protocol followed by OHA Investment Corporation and its affiliates, for which an order was granted on April 25, 2016, NexPoint Capital, Inc. and its affiliates, for which an order was granted on April 19, 2016, Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. and its affiliates, for which an order was granted on March 29, 2016, and Apollo Investment Corporation and its affiliates, for which an order was granted on March 29, 2016, among others.¹⁵

Applicants’ Legal Arguments

Rule 17d-1 was promulgated by the Commission pursuant to Section 17(d) and made applicable to BDCs by Section 57(i). Paragraph (a) of Rule 17d-1 permits an otherwise prohibited person, acting as principal, to participate in, or effect a transaction in connection with, a joint enterprise or other joint arrangement or profit-sharing plan in which a Regulated Fund is a participant if an application regarding the joint enterprise, arrangement, or profit-sharing plan has been filed with the Commission and has been granted by an order issued prior to the submission of such plan or any modification thereof to security holders for approval, or prior to its adoption or modification if not so submitted. Paragraph (b) of Rule 17d-1 states that in passing upon applications under that rule, the Commission will consider whether the participation by the investment company in such joint enterprise, joint arrangement, or profit-sharing plan on the basis proposed is consistent with the provisions, policies, and purposes of the 1940 Act and the extent to which such participation is on a basis different from or less advantageous than that of other participants.

See note 14 above.

Page 21 of 50

Applicants submit that the fact that the Required Majority will approve each Potential Co-Investment Transaction before investment, and other protective conditions set forth in this Application will ensure that each of the Regulated Funds are treated fairly.

The conditions to which the requested relief will be subject are designed to ensure that GC Advisors or the principals of GC Advisors would not be able to favor any Regulated Fund or the Affiliated Funds over other Regulated Funds through the allocation of investment opportunities among them. Because almost every attractive investment opportunity for a Regulated Fund will also be an attractive investment opportunity for one or more Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds, Applicants submit that the Co-Investment Program presents an attractive alternative to the institution of some form of equitable allocation protocol for the allocation of 100% of individual investment opportunities to the Regulated Funds or the Affiliated Funds as opportunities arise.

Applicants submit that the Regulated Fund’s participation in the Co-Investment Transactions will be consistent with the provisions, policies, and purposes of the 1940 Act and on a basis that is not different from or less advantageous than that of other participants.

Conditions

Applicants agree that any Order granting the requested relief will be subject to the following conditions:

1. Each time an Adviser considers a Potential Co-Investment Transaction for an Affiliated Fund or another Regulated Fund that falls within a Regulated Fund’s then-current Objectives and Strategies, the Regulated Fund’s Adviser will make an independent determination of the appropriateness of the investment for such Regulated Fund in light of the Regulated Fund’s then-current circumstances.

2. (a) If the Adviser deems a Regulated Fund’s participation in any Potential Co-Investment Transaction to be appropriate for the Regulated Fund, it will then determine an appropriate level of investment for the Regulated Fund.

(b) If the aggregate amount recommended by the applicable Adviser to be invested by the applicable Regulated Fund in the Potential Co-Investment Transaction, together with the amount proposed to be invested by the other participating Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds, collectively, in the same transaction, exceeds the amount of the investment opportunity, the amount proposed to be invested by each party will be allocated among them pro rata based on each participant’s Available Capital up to the amount proposed to be invested by each. The applicable Adviser will provide the Eligible Directors of each participating Regulated Fund with information concerning each participating party’s Available Capital to assist the Eligible Directors with their review of the Regulated Fund’s investments for compliance with these allocation procedures.

(c) After making the determinations required in conditions 1 and 2(a), the applicable Adviser will distribute written information concerning the Potential Co-Investment Transaction (including the amount proposed to be invested by each participating Regulated Fund and Affiliated Fund) to the Eligible Directors of each participating Regulated Fund for their consideration. A Regulated Fund will co-invest with one or more other Regulated Funds and/or one or more Affiliated Funds only if, prior to the Regulated Fund’s participation in the Potential Co-Investment Transaction, a Required Majority concludes that:

(i) the terms of the Potential Co-Investment Transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Regulated Fund and its shareholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of the Regulated Fund or its shareholders on the part of any person concerned;

(ii) the Potential Co-Investment Transaction is consistent with

(A)

the interests of the equity holders of the Regulated Fund; and

(B)

the Regulated Funds then-current Objectives and Strategies;

Page 22 of 50

(iii) the investment by any other Regulated Funds or Affiliated Funds would not disadvantage the Regulated Fund, and participation by the Regulated Fund would not be on a basis different from or less advantageous than that of other Regulated Funds or Affiliated Funds; provided that, if any other Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund, but not the Regulated Fund itself, gains the right to nominate a director for election to a portfolio company’s board of directors or the right to have a board observer or any similar right to participate in the governance or management of the portfolio company, such event shall not be interpreted to prohibit the Required Majority from reaching the conclusions required by this condition (2)(c)(iii), if

(A) the Eligible Directors will have the right to ratify the selection of such director or board observer, if any;

(B) the applicable Adviser agrees to, and does, provide, periodic reports to the Regulated Fund’s Board with respect to the actions of such director or the information received by such board observer or obtained through the exercise of any similar right to participate in the governance or management of the portfolio company; and

(C) any fees or other compensation that any Affiliated Fund or any Regulated Fund or any affiliated person of any Affiliated Fund or any Regulated Fund receives in connection with the right of an Affiliated Fund or a Regulated Fund to nominate a director or appoint a board observer or otherwise to participate in the governance or management of the portfolio company will be shared proportionately among the participating Affiliated Funds (who each may, in turn, share its portion with its affiliated persons), and the participating Regulated Funds in accordance with the amount of each party’s investment; and

(iv) the proposed investment by the Regulated Fund will not benefit the Advisers, the Affiliated Funds or the other Regulated Funds or any affiliated person of any of them (other than the parties to the Co-Investment Transaction), except (A) to the extent permitted by condition 15, (B) to the extent permitted by section 17(e) or 57(k) of the 1940 Act, as applicable, (C) indirectly, as a result of an interest in the securities issued by one of the parties to the Co-Investment Transaction, or (D) in the case of fees or other compensation described in condition 2(c)(iii)(C).

3. Each Regulated Fund has the right to decline to participate in any Potential Co- Investment Transaction or to invest less than the amount proposed.

4. The applicable Adviser will present to the Board of each Regulated Fund, on a quarterly basis, a record of all investments in Potential Co-Investment Transactions made by any of the other Regulated Funds or Affiliated Funds during the preceding quarter that fell within the Regulated Fund’s then-current Objectives and Strategies that were not made available to the Regulated Fund, and an explanation of why the investment opportunities were not offered to the Regulated Fund. All information presented to the Board pursuant to this condition will be kept for the life of the Regulated Fund and at least two years thereafter, and will be subject to examination by the Commission and its staff.

5. Except for Follow-On Investments made in accordance with conditions 9 and 10¹⁶, a Regulated Fund will not invest in reliance on the Order in any issuer in which another Regulated Fund, Affiliated Fund or any affiliated person of another Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund is an existing investor.

6. A Regulated Fund will not participate in any Potential Co-Investment Transaction unless the terms, conditions, price, class of securities to be purchased, settlement date, and registration rights will be the same for each participating Regulated Fund and Affiliated Fund. The grant to an Affiliated Fund or another Regulated Fund, but not the Regulated Fund, of the right to nominate a director for election to a portfolio company’s board of directors, the right to have an observer on the board of directors or similar rights to participate in the governance or

¹⁶

This exception applies only to Follow-On Investments by a Regulated Fund in issuers in which that Regulated Fund already holds investments.

Page 23 of 50

management of the portfolio company will not be interpreted so as to violate this condition 6, if conditions 2(c)(iii)(A), (B) and (C) are met.

7. (a) If any Affiliated Fund or any Regulated Fund elects to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of an interest in a security that was acquired in a Co-Investment Transaction, the applicable Adviser will:

(i) notify each Regulated Fund that participated in the Co-Investment Transaction of the proposed disposition at the earliest practical time; and

(ii) formulate a recommendation as to participation by each Regulated Fund in the disposition.

(b) Each Regulated Fund will have the right to participate in such disposition on a proportionate basis, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the participating Affiliated Funds and Regulated Funds.

(c) A Regulated Fund may participate in such disposition without obtaining prior approval of the Required Majority if: (i) the proposed participation of each Regulated Fund and each Affiliated Fund in such disposition is proportionate to its outstanding investments in the issuer immediately preceding the disposition; (ii) the Board of the Regulated Fund has approved as being in the best interests of the Regulated Fund the ability to participate in such dispositions on a pro rata basis (as described in greater detail in the Application); and (iii) the Board of the Regulated Fund is provided on a quarterly basis with a list of all dispositions made in accordance with this condition. In all other cases, the Adviser will provide its written recommendation as to the Regulated Fund’s participation to the Eligible Directors, and the Regulated Fund will participate in such disposition solely to the extent that a Required Majority determines that it is in the Regulated Fund’s best interests.

(d) Each Affiliated Fund and each Regulated Fund will bear its own expenses in connection with any such disposition.

8. (a) If any Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund elects to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of a Pre-Boarding Investment in a Potential Co-Investment Transaction and the Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds have not previously participated in a Co-Investment Transaction with respect to the issuer:

(i) the Adviser to such Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund will notify each Regulated Fund that holds an investment in the issuer of the proposed disposition at the earliest practical time;

(ii) the Adviser to each Regulated Fund that holds an investment in the issuer will formulate a recommendation as to participation by such Regulated Fund in the disposition; and

(iii) the Advisers will provide to the Board of each Regulated Fund that holds an investment in the issuer all information relating to the existing investments in the issuer of the Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds, including the terms of such investments and how they were made, that is necessary for the Required Majority to make the findings required by this condition.

(b) The Adviser will provide its written recommendation as to the Regulated Fund’s participation to the Eligible Directors, and the Regulated Fund will participate in such disposition solely to the extent that a Required Majority determines that:

(i) the disposition complies with condition 2(c)(i), (ii), (iii)(A), and (iv); and

(ii) the making and holding of the Pre-Boarding Investments were not prohibited by Section 57 or Rule 17d-1, as applicable, and records the basis for the finding in the Board minutes.

Page 24 of 50

(i) each Regulated Fund has the right to participate in such Disposition on a proportionate basis, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the Affiliated Funds and any other Regulated Fund;

(ii) all of the Affiliated Funds’ and Regulated Funds’ investments in the issuer are Pre-Boarding Investments;

(iii) independent counsel to the Board advises that the making and holding of the investments in the Pre-Boarding Investments were not prohibited by Section 57 (as modified by Rule 57b-1) or Rule 17d-1, as applicable;

(iv) all Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds that hold Pre-Boarding Investments in the issuer immediately before the time of completion of the Co-Investment Transaction hold the same security or securities of the issuer. For the purpose of determining whether the Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds hold the same security or securities, they may disregard any security held by some but not all of them if, prior to relying on the Order, the Required Majority is presented with all information necessary to make a finding, and finds, that: (x) any Regulated Fund’s or Affiliated Fund’s holding of a different class of securities (including for this purpose a security with a different maturity date) is immaterial¹⁷ in amount, including immaterial relative to the size of the issuer; and (y) the Board records the basis for any such finding in its minutes. In addition, securities that differ only in respect of issuance date, currency, or denominations may be treated as the same security; and

(v) the Affiliated Funds, the other Regulated Funds and their affiliated persons (within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3)(C) of the 1940 Act), individually or in the aggregate, do not control the issuer of the securities (within the meaning of Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act).

9. (a) If any Affiliated Fund or any Regulated Fund desires to make a Follow-On Investment in a portfolio company whose securities were acquired in a Co-Investment Transaction, the applicable Advisers will:

(i) notify each Regulated Fund that participated in the Co-Investment Transaction of the proposed transaction at the earliest practical time; and

(ii) formulate a recommendation as to the proposed participation, including the amount of the proposed Follow-On Investment, by each Regulated Fund.

(b) A Regulated Fund may participate in such Follow-On Investment without obtaining prior approval of the Required Majority if: (i) the proposed participation of each Regulated Fund and each Affiliated Fund in such investment is proportionate to its outstanding investments in the issuer immediately preceding the Follow-On Investment; and (ii) the Board of the Regulated Fund has approved as being in the best interests of the Regulated Fund the ability to participate in Follow-On Investments on a pro rata basis (as described in greater detail in this Application). In all other cases, the Adviser will provide its written recommendation as to the Regulated Fund’s participation to the Eligible Directors, and the Regulated Fund will participate in such Follow-On Investment solely to the extent that a Required Majority determines that it is in the Regulated Fund’s best interests.

(i) the amount of the opportunity is not based on the Regulated Funds’ and the Affiliated Funds’ outstanding investments immediately preceding the Follow-On Investment; and

¹⁷ In determining whether a holding is “immaterial” for purposes of the Order, the Required Majority will consider whether the nature and extent of the interest in the transaction or arrangement is sufficiently small that a reasonable person would not believe that the interest affected the determination of whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement or the terms of the transaction or arrangement.

Page 25 of 50

(ii) the aggregate amount recommended by the applicable Adviser to be invested by the applicable Regulated Fund in the Follow-On Investment, together with the amount proposed to be invested by the other participating Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds, collectively, in the same transaction, exceeds the amount of the investment opportunity; then the amount invested by each such party will be allocated among them pro rata based on each party’s Available Capital, up to the amount proposed to be invested by each.

(d) The acquisition of Follow-On Investments as permitted by this condition will be considered a Co-Investment Transaction for all purposes and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Application.

10. (a) If any Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund desires to make a Follow-On Investment in an issuer that is a Potential Co-Investment Transaction and the Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds holding investments in the issuer have not previously participated in a Co-Investment Transaction with respect to the issuer:

(i) the Adviser to each such Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund will notify each Regulated Fund that holds securities of the portfolio company of the proposed transaction at the earliest practical time;

(ii) the Adviser to each Regulated Fund that holds an investment in the issuer will formulate a recommendation as to the proposed participation, including the amount of the proposed investment, by such Regulated Fund; and

(b) The Adviser will provide its written recommendation as to the Regulated Fund’s participation to the Eligible Directors, and the Regulated Fund will participate in such Follow-On Investment solely to the extent that a Required Majority reviews the proposed Follow-On Investment both on a stand-alone basis and together with the Pre-Boarding Investments in relation to the total economic exposure and other terms and makes the determinations set forth in condition 2(c). In addition, the Follow-On Investment may only be completed in reliance on the Order if the Required Majority of each participating Regulated Fund determines that the making and holding of the Pre-Boarding Investments were not prohibited by Section 57 (as modified by Rule 57b-1) or Rule 17d-1, as applicable. The basis for the Board’s findings will be recorded in its minutes.

(i) All of the Affiliated Funds’ and Regulated Funds’ investments in the issuer are Pre-Boarding Investments;

(ii) Independent counsel to the Board advises that the making and holding of the investments in the Pre-Boarding Investments were not prohibited by Section 57 (as modified by Rule 57b-1) or Rule 17d-1, as applicable;

(iii) All Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds that hold Pre-Boarding Investments in the issuer immediately before the time of completion of the Co-Investment Transaction hold the same security or securities of the issuer. For the purpose of determining whether the Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds hold the same security or securities, they may disregard any security held by some but not all of them if, prior to relying on the Order, the Required Majority is presented with all information necessary to make a finding, and finds, that: (x) any Regulated Fund’s or Affiliated Fund’s holding of a different class of securities (including for this purpose a security with a different maturity date) is immaterial in amount, including immaterial relative to the size of the issuer; and (y) the Board records the basis for any such finding in its minutes. In addition, securities that differ only in respect of issuance date, currency, or denominations may be treated as the same security; and

Page 26 of 50

(iv) The Affiliated Funds, the other Regulated Funds and their affiliated persons (within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3)(C) of the 1940 Act), individually or in the aggregate, do not control the issuer of the securities (within the meaning of Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act).

(d) If, with respect to any such Follow-On Investment:

(i) the amount of the opportunity proposed to be made available to any Regulated Fund is not based on the Regulated Funds’ and the Affiliated Funds’ outstanding investments in the issuer or the security at issue, as appropriate, immediately preceding the Follow-On Investment; and

(ii) the aggregate amount recommended by the Advisers to be invested in the Follow-On Investment by the participating Regulated Funds and any participating Affiliated Funds, collectively, exceeds the amount of the investment opportunity,

then the Follow-On Investment opportunity will be allocated among them pro rata based on each participant’s available capital up to the amount proposed to be invested by each.

(e) The acquisition of Follow-On Investments as permitted by this condition will be considered a Co-Investment Transaction for all purposes and subject to the other conditions set forth in this application.

11. The Non-Interested Directors of each Regulated Fund will be provided quarterly for review all information concerning Potential Co-Investment Transactions and Co-Investment Transactions, including investments made by other Regulated Funds or Affiliated Funds that the Regulated Fund considered but declined to participate in, so that the Non-Interested Directors may determine whether all investments made during the preceding quarter, including those investments that the Regulated Fund considered but declined to participate in, comply with the conditions of the Order. In addition, the Non-Interested Directors will consider at least annually the continued appropriateness for the Regulated Fund of participating in new and existing Co-Investment Transactions.

12. Each Regulated Fund will maintain the records required by section 57(f)(3) of the 1940 Act as if each of the Regulated Funds were a BDC and each of the investments permitted under these conditions were approved by the Required Majority under section 57(f).

13. No Non-Interested Director of a Regulated Fund will also be a director, general partner, managing member or principal, or otherwise an “affiliated person” (as defined in the 1940 Act), of any of the Affiliated Funds.

14. The expenses, if any, associated with acquiring, holding or disposing of any securities acquired in a Co-Investment Transaction (including, without limitation, the expenses of the distribution of any such securities registered for sale under the 1933 Act) will, to the extent not payable by the Advisers under their respective investment advisory agreements with Affiliated Funds and the Regulated Funds, be shared by the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds in proportion to the relative amounts of the securities held or to be acquired or disposed of, as the case may be.

15. Any transaction fee¹⁸ (including break-up or commitment fees but excluding broker’s fees contemplated by section 17(e) or 57(k), as applicable) received in connection with a Co-Investment Transaction will be distributed to the participating Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds on a pro rata basis based on the amounts they invested or committed, as the case may be, in such Co-Investment Transaction. If any transaction fee is to be held by an Adviser pending consummation of the transaction, the fee will be deposited into an account maintained by the Adviser at a bank or banks having the qualifications prescribed in section 26(a)(1), and the account will earn a competitive rate of interest that will also be divided pro rata among the participating Regulated Funds and

¹⁸

Applicants are not requesting and the staff is not providing any relief for transaction fees received in connection with any Co-Investment Transaction.

Page 27 of 50

Affiliated Funds based on the amount they invest in such Co-Investment Transaction. None of the Advisers, the Affiliated Funds, the other Regulated Funds nor any affiliated person of the Regulated Funds or Affiliated Funds will receive additional compensation or remuneration of any kind as a result of or in connection with a Co-Investment Transaction (other than (a) in the case of the Regulated Funds and the Affiliated Funds, the pro rata transaction fees described above and fees or other compensation described in condition 2(c)(iii)(C), and (b) in the case of an Adviser, investment advisory fees paid in accordance with their respective agreements between the Advisers and the Regulated Fund or Affiliated Fund.

16. If the Holders own in the aggregate more than 25% of the Shares, then the Holders will vote such Shares as directed by an independent third party when voting on (1) the election of directors; (2) the removal of one or more directors; or (3) all other matters under either the 1940 Act or applicable state law affecting the Board’s composition, size or manner of election.
