INTRODUCTION
The following entities
hereby request an order (the “
Order
”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “
Commission
”)
pursuant to Sections 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 Section
57(a)(4):
1
|
·
|
Golub Capital BDC, Inc. (the “
Company
”);
|
|
·
|
GC Advisors LLC, the Company’s investment adviser (“
GC Advisors
”);
|
|
·
|
Certain pooled investment vehicles set forth on Schedule A hereto that are advised or sponsored
by GC Advisors (or by an entity directly or indirectly controlled by, or under common control with, GC Advisors within the meaning
of Section 2(a)(9) as set forth on Schedule A hereto (a “
Controlled Adviser
”)) (the “
Existing
Funds
” and, together with the Future Funds and the Special Purpose Vehicles as set forth on Schedule A hereto, and
as each is defined herein, the “
Funds
”); and
|
|
1
|
Unless otherwise indicated, all section and rule references herein are to sections of, and rules
under, the 1940 Act.
|
|
·
|
The general partners or managing members of such Funds as set forth on Schedule A hereto (the “
Fund
GPs
”) and any Controlled Advisers providing investment advisory services to the Funds or to any separately managed
account that may co-invest alongside the Funds (together with the Company, GC Advisors, the Funds and Fund GPs, the “
Applicants

|
The relief requested
in this application (the “
Application
”) would allow the Applicants and any other investment fund that
GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser may in the future sponsor or provide with investment management services (collectively, the
“

”),
where such co-investments might otherwise be prohibited by Section 57(a)(4) of the 1940 Act, through a proposed co-investment program

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.
I.
APPLICANTS
A. Golub
Capital BDC
The Company 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.
2
The Company, 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. The Company 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. The Company’s principal
place of business is 150 South Wacker Drive, Suite 800, Chicago, Illinois 60606.
The Company seeks to
maximize the total return to its stockholders through both current income and capital appreciation through debt and minority equity
investments. The Company intends to achieve its investment objective by (1) accessing the established loan origination channels
developed by Golub Capital Incorporated and Golub Capital LLC (collectively “
Golub Capital
”), (2) selecting
investments within its core middle-market company focus, (3) partnering with experienced private equity firms, or sponsors, (4)
implementing the disciplined underwriting standards of Golub Capital and (5) drawing upon the aggregate experience and resources
of Golub Capital, a leading lender to middle-market companies. The Company 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. The Company believes
that its proposed investment strategy will allow the Company to generate cash available for distribution to its stockholders and
to provide competitive total returns to its stockholders.
|
2
|
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.
|
The Company’s
business and affairs are managed under the direction of its board of directors (the “
Board
”). The Board
consists of five members, three of whom are not “interested persons” of the Company as defined in Section 2(a)(19)
of the 1940 Act.
3
The Board has delegated
daily management and investment authority to GC Advisors pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement (the “
Investment
Advisory Agreement
”) dated April 14, 2010. An affiliate of GC Advisors, GC Service Company, LLC, provides the administrative
services necessary for the Company to operate.
B. GC
Advisors
GC Advisors, a Delaware
limited liability company that is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, serves
as the investment adviser to the Company pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement.
4
Subject to the overall supervision of the Board, GC Advisors will manage the day-to-day operations of, and provide investment advisory
and management services to, the Company. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, GC Advisors will: (i) determine
the composition of the Company’s portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to the Company’s portfolio and the
manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identify, evaluate and negotiate the structure of the investments the Company makes (including
performing due diligence on the Company’s prospective portfolio companies); (iii) close and monitor the investments the Company
makes; and (iv) determine the securities and other assets that the Company will purchase, retain or sell.
GC
Advisors’ services under the Investment Advisory Agreement will not be exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services
to other entities.
GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser currently serves as investment adviser
to each of the Existing Funds.
5
The Company may seek to co-invest with the Funds.
6
|
3
|
Currently, Lawrence E. Golub serves as a Director and Chairman of the Board and David B. Golub
serves as a Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. 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 Funds,
GC Advisors and other Applicants. It is not expected that Messrs. Lawrence E. Golub and David B. Golub will have a direct or indirect
financial interest in any Co-Investment Transaction, other than through any interest they have in securities of the Company or
any interest in another Applicant.
|
|
4
|
The Company’s senior management and members of GC Advisors’ investment committee have
ownership and financial interests in GC Advisors, the Company and other Applicants
,
and Messrs. Lawrence E. Golub and David
B. Golub are control persons of GC Advisors.
|
|
5
|
In addition to the Company and Funds, clients may include separately managed accounts which may
co-invest with the Company and the Funds.
|
|
6
|
In certain circumstances, a Fund may form a special purpose vehicle to invest side by side with
such Fund or as a special purpose subsidiary of one or more Funds to hold one or more investments (each a “
Special
Purpose Vehicle
”). Special Purpose Vehicles serve as intermediate investment vehicles through which the
Funds hold certain investments. Special Purpose Vehicles, which are or will be wholly owned by one or more Applicants, aggregate
underlying investments in order to achieve efficiencies for the Funds. Special Purpose Vehicles are generally formed because they
are necessary or desirable from a tax, legal, accounting or regulatory perspective (for example, to address tax issues that a non-U.S.
investor has in a Fund that are not shared by other domestic investors in a Fund), or to facilitate participation in certain types
of investments (for example, blocker corporations are often also used to address tax issues that result from investing in a pass
through entity like a partnership or a limited liability company). The Company may also establish Special Purpose Vehicles
as intermediate investment vehicles to hold and/or finance investments. In such cases, any Special Purpose Vehicle established
by the Company will be treated the same as the Company for all purposes of this Application.
|
The use of a Special Purpose
Vehicle by the Company or a Fund will not alter the allocation of an investment opportunity among the Company or Fund(s) utilizing
a Special Purpose Vehicle. Relief for Special Purpose Vehicles is being requested because the Special Purpose Vehicles are managed
and/or controlled by GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser and may invest side by side with the Funds. Special Purpose Vehicles are
persons described in Section 57(b)(2) of the 1940 Act.

II.
RELIEF
FOR PROPOSED CO-INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
A. Co-Investment
in Portfolio Companies by the Company and the Funds
1. Mechanics
of the Co-Investment Program
In selecting investments
for the Company, GC Advisors will consider only the investment objective, investment policies, investment position, capital available
for investment, and other pertinent factors applicable to the Company. Likewise, when selecting investments for the Funds, GC Advisors
or a Controlled Adviser will select investments separately for each 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
Fund. The Company’s investment objectives and strategies, as described in the Company’s registration statement on Form
N-2, other filings the Company has made with the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as Amended, or under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s reports to stockholders (the “ Objectives and Strategies”),
and the investment objectives and strategies of the Funds are substantially similar, and GC Advisors anticipates that a portfolio
company that is an appropriate investment for the Company will normally also be an appropriate investment for one or more Funds,
with certain exceptions based on available capital or diversification. ` GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers currently share
offices and frequently communicate to assist one another in providing investment management services to the Company and Funds.
GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers have approximately 140 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 Company’s attention.
Under
the Co-Investment Program, pursuant to written policies and procedures adopted by GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers (the
“
Allocation Policy
”), each co-investment would be allocated between the Company, on the one hand, and
the participating Funds (including, for the limited purpose of describing potential transaction participants, separately managed
accounts for institutional clients of GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser), on the other hand. With respect to the Company’s
participation in a Potential Co-Investment Transaction, each transaction and the proposed allocation of the relevant investment
opportunity would presented to the directors eligible to vote under section 57(o) (the “
Eligible Directors
”).
7
The information provided to the Eligible Directors about a Potential Co-Investment Transaction will include information concerning
the amount proposed to be invested by each participating Fund to assist the Eligible Directors with their review of the Company’s
investments for compliance with the Allocation Policy. Additionally GC Advisors will regularly review with the Company’s
Board the Allocation Policy and how the Allocation Policy has been applied in the context of the Company’s investments. It
is not expected that any 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 the Company.
A
Potential Co-Investment Transaction will be consummated only upon approval by a required majority of the Eligible Directors within
the meaning of Section 57(o) (“
Required Majority
”). 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 the Company’s purchase be the same as those applicable to the purchase by the Funds.
When evaluating a Potential
Co-Investment Transaction, GC Advisors will determine whether participation in the Potential Co-Investment Transaction is appropriate
for the Company and any Funds based on, among other criteria, the Company’s Objectives and Strategies, each Funds’
investment objectives and strategies, and the Company’s and each Fund’s investment position, capital available for
investment. If a Potential Co-Investment Transaction is an appropriate investment for the Company or a Fund, prior to entering
into the Potential Co-Investment Transaction, GC Advisors and any Controlled Adviser will determine separately the amount of the
proposed investment to be made in the Potential Co-Investment Transaction by the Company and any participating Funds (each a “
Recommended
Amount
”). GC Advisors will determine the Recommended Amount for the Company and any Fund for which it acts as investment
advisor; a Controlled Adviser will determine the Recommended Amount for any Fund for which it acts as investment advisor. The Company
and each Fund will receive individualized investment advice, and the investment decisions for the Company will be made without
regard to the investment needs of any other Fund. The Recommended Amount for a Fund includes investments to be made by the Fund
directly or indirectly through a Special Purpose Vehicle. In most Potential Co-Investment Transactions, the Recommended Amount
will be determined before it is clear whether a Potential Co-Investment Transaction will be consummated, although GC Advisors and
the Controlled Advisers will have a general indication of the amount of the investment opportunity that is likely to be available
for a Potential Co-Investment Transaction, if it eventually occurs, early in the process and prior to making a determination of
the Recommended Amount for the Company or any Fund. The amount that is ultimately available to the Company and the Funds will depend
upon a variety of factors, including the issuer’s need for additional funds and market conditions generally, which could
result in the total available investment being less or more than the aggregate amount proposed to be invested by the Company and
the participating Funds (the “
Aggregate Recommended Amount
”).
|
7
|
The term “
Eligible Directors
,” when used with respect to the approval
of a proposed transaction, plan, or arrangement, means both a majority of a BDC’s directors who have no financial interest
in such transaction, plan, or arrangement and a majority of such directors or general partners who are not interested persons of
such company (“
Independent Directors
”).
|
If sufficient securities
or loan amounts are available to satisfy the Company’s and each Fund’s Recommended Amount, the investment opportunity
will be allocated among the Company and the Funds in accordance with Recommended Amount determined by GC Advisors’ and/or
each Controlled Adviser. If the amount of the investment opportunity is less than the Aggregate Recommended Amount, the amount
of the investment opportunity will be allocated among the Company and each Fund pro rata based on the amount that each such party
would have invested if sufficient securities or loan amounts were available. The Applicants believe that this will result in allocations
that are fair and equitable over time while better reflecting the nature of the Company and the Funds, in that (i) each has a particular
investment objective which leads it to seek differing proportions of certain asset classes that may differ from that sought by
another Applicant; and (ii) certain of the Funds may have limited investment periods or restrictions on portfolio turnover, reducing
the amount that can be committed to a particular investment – even if the Fund is relatively large. The Applicants believe
that the proposed method of allocating orders where the Aggregate Recommended Amount exceeds an available investment opportunity
is more equitable to the Company and participating Funds than a method of allocation determined pro rata based on the “total
assets” or the “available capital” of the participants in the Potential Co-Investment Transaction. The proposed
method of allocation benefits the Company and Funds because the Company and each Fund receives the benefit of its investment strategy
regardless of its size. The use of an allocation methodology that pro rates investment opportunities on the basis of total assets
or available capital may, in certain circumstances, benefit a Fund over the Company if the Fund has greater total or uninvested
assets than the Company. Additionally, the proposed allocation better enables GC Advisors and the Controlling Advisers to meet
their fiduciary duties to their clients that participate in a Co-Investment Transaction.
2. Reasons
for the Co-Investment Program
The Applicants believe
the Co-Investment Program will increase favorable investment opportunities for the Company. However, the Co-Investment Program
will be implemented only if it is approved by the Eligible Directors on the basis that it would be advantageous for the Company
to have the additional capital from the Funds available to meet the funding requirements of portfolio companies. A BDC that makes
investments of the type contemplated by the Company 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 the Company, which seek certain favorable tax treatment under Subchapter M of
the Code.
8
In view of the foregoing,
in cases where GC Advisors identifies an investment opportunity that requires a capital commitment that exceeds the Company’s
legal or prudential limits, it must seek the participation of other entities with similar investment styles. The availability of
the Funds as investing partners of the Company may thus alleviate that necessity in certain circumstances and allow the Company
to participate in attractive opportunities at levels that are appropriate for the Company.
The Company 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 Company’s inability 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 Company’s individual
or aggregate investment limits require GC Advisors to arrange a syndication with unaffiliated entities, the Company will likely
be required to forego fewer suitable investment opportunities. With the assets of the Funds available for co-investment, there
should be an increase in the number of opportunities accessible to the Company.
Additionally, from
time to time, a portfolio company may seek to repay an existing obligation or restructure its capitalization by entering into a
new financing transaction (a “
Refinancing Transaction
”). Portfolio companies frequently engage in Refinancing
Transactions to lower their cost of capital or to obtain additional capital and decisions to engage in a Refinancing Transaction
are made by the portfolio company and not its existing lenders. Often, a portfolio company will prefer to engage in a Refinancing
Transaction with an incumbent creditor or investor. Such Refinancing Transactions may present attractive co-investment opportunities
for the Company and Funds. When a Fund but not the Company is an investor in a portfolio company that engages in a Refinancing
Transaction,
9
any investment opportunity
in the Refinancing Transaction will be treated as an initial Potential Co-Investment Transaction.
10
If the Company is unable to participate in Refinancing Transactions, the number and quality of investment opportunities available
to the Company will be diminished.
|
8
|
See
I.R.C. § 851(b)(4).
|
|
9
|
In many cases, the Company will not be an incumbent because it did not exist at the time of the
initial financing.
|
|
10
|
When a Fund and the Company are investors in a portfolio company that engages in a Refinancing
Transaction, any investment opportunity in the Refinancing Transaction will be treated as a follow-on investment.
|
GC Advisors and the
Board believe that it will be advantageous for the Company to co-invest with the 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 the Company.
GC Advisors and the
Board also believe that co-investment by the Company and the Funds will afford the Company the ability to achieve greater diversification
and, together with the Funds, the opportunity to exercise greater influence on the portfolio companies in which the Company and
the participating Funds co-invest. GC Advisors and the Board believe that the allocation methodology described herein provides
for the equitable allocation of co-investments and takes into account the current capacity of the Company and participating Funds
to make the type of investment presented by the co-investment opportunity. GC Advisors does not have incentive to favor a co-investing
Fund over the Company because the Funds and the Company 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 the Company to GC Advisors are comparable to the fees paid by the 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.
B. Applicable
Law
1. Sections
57(a)(4) and 57(i) of the 1940 Act, and Rule 17d-1 thereunder
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 BDC 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.
2. 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 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 Section 57(a)(4) and Rule 17d-1 without a prior exemptive order
of the Commission to the extent that the Funds fall within the category of persons described by Section 57(b), as modified by Rule
57b-1 thereunder. Because GC Advisors or a Controlled Adviser is the investment adviser to each of the Funds, the Company and the
Funds may be deemed to be affiliated persons within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) if the Funds are deemed to be controlled by
or under common control with GC Advisors. Thus, a Fund could be deemed to be a person related to the Company 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 57(a)(4) and 57(i) and Rule 17d-1, permitting the Funds to
participate with the Company in the Co-Investment Program.
E. Precedents
The Commission has
granted co-investment relief on numerous occasions in recent years.
11
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 Medley Capital Corporation and its affiliates, for
which an order was granted on March 6, 2012, Ridgewood Capital Management, LLC and its affiliates, for which an order was granted
on October 21, 2009 and Gladstone Capital Corporation and its affiliates, for which orders were granted on July 26, 2012 and November
22, 2005.
12
F. 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 BDC 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.
Applicants submit that
the fact that the Eligible Directors will approve each Potential Co-Investment Transaction before investment, and other protective
conditions set forth in this Application will ensure that the Company is 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 the Funds over the Company through the allocation of investment opportunities among them. Because almost every attractive
investment opportunity for the Company will also be an attractive investment opportunity for one or more 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 either the Company or the Funds as opportunities arise.
Applicants submit that
the Company’s participation in the Co-Investment Transactions will be consistent with the provisions, policies, and purposes
of the Act and on a basis that is not different from or less advantageous than that of other participants.
G. Conditions
Applicants agree that
any Order granting the requested relief will be subject to the following conditions:
1. Each time GC Advisors
or a Controlled Adviser considers a Potential Co-Investment Transaction for any of the Funds that falls within the Objectives and
Strategies, GC Advisors will make an independent determination of the appropriateness of the investment for the Company in light
of the Company’s then-current circumstances.
2. (a) If GC Advisors
deems the Company’s participation in any Potential Co-Investment Transaction to be appropriate for the Company, it will then
determine an appropriate level of investment for the Company.

(b) If the aggregate
amount recommended by GC Advisors to be invested by the Company in such Potential Co-Investment Transaction, together with the
amount proposed to be invested by the Funds in the same Potential Co-Investment Transaction, exceeds the amount of the investment
opportunity, the amount of the investment opportunity will be allocated among them pro rata based on the amount that each such
party would have invested if the amount of the investment opportunity was sufficient to satisfy each party’s proposed investment.
GC Advisors will provide the Eligible Directors with information concerning the amount proposed to be invested by each participating
Fund to assist the Eligible Directors with their review of the Company’s investments for compliance with these allocation
procedures.
(c) After making the
determinations required in conditions 1 and 2(a), GC Advisors will distribute written information concerning the Potential Co-Investment
Transaction, including the amount proposed to be invested by each participating Fund, to the Eligible Directors for their consideration.
The Company will co-invest with a Fund only if, prior to the Company’s and the participating 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 and do not involve overreaching
of the Company or its stockholders on the part of any person concerned;
(ii) the Potential
Co-Investment Transaction is consistent with
(A) the interests
of the stockholders of the Company; and
(B) the Objectives and
Strategies;
(iii) the investment
by the participating Funds would not disadvantage the Company, and participation by the Company is not on a basis different from
or less advantageous than that of any participating Fund; provided, that if any participating Fund, but not the Company, 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 a Required Majority from reaching the conclusions required by this condition (2)(c)(iii), if
(A) the Eligible Directors
shall have the right to ratify the selection of such director or board observer, if any,
(B) GC Advisors agrees
to, and does, provide periodic reports to the Company’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) if a participating
Fund or an affiliate of a participating Fund will receive fees or other compensation in connection with the participating Fund’s
right to nominate a director or board observer or otherwise to participate in the governance or management of a portfolio company,
such fees or other compensation will be shared proportionately among the participating Funds (who may, in turn, share their portion
with their affiliated persons) and the Company in accordance with the amount of each party’s investment; and
(iv) the proposed investment
by the Company will not benefit any affiliated person of the Company, other than the participating Funds, except
(A) to the extent permitted
by condition 13;
(B) to the extent permitted
by sections 17(e) or 57(k) of the 1940 Act, as applicable; or
(C) in the case of fees
or other compensation described in condition 2(c)(iii)(C); or
(D) indirectly, as a
result of an interest in securities issued by a participating Fund or the Company.
3. The Company has
the right to decline to participate in any Potential Co-Investment Transaction or to invest less than the amount proposed.
4. GC Advisors will
present to the Board, on a quarterly basis, a record of all investments made by the Funds during the preceding quarter that fell
within the Objectives and Strategies that were not made available to the Company, and an explanation of why the investment opportunities
were not offered to the Company. All information presented to the Board pursuant to this condition will be kept for the life of
the Company and at least two years thereafter, and will be subject to examination by the Commission and its staff.
5. Except for Refinancing
Transactions treated as initial Co-Investment Transactions and made pursuant to conditions 1 and 2 above and follow-on investments
made pursuant to condition 8 below, the Company will not invest in reliance on the Order in any portfolio company in which GC Advisors,
any Fund or any person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with GC Advisors or a Fund but not the Company has an
existing investment.
6. The Company 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 the Company as for the participating Funds. The grant to a Fund, but
not the Company, 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 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 of the
Funds elects to sell, exchange, or otherwise dispose of an interest in a security that was acquired by the Company and such Fund
in a Co-Investment Transaction, GC Advisors will:
(i) notify
the Company of the proposed disposition at the earliest practical time; and
(ii) formulate
a recommendation as to participation by the Company in the disposition.
(b) The Company 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 Funds.
(c) The Company may
participate in such disposition without obtaining prior approval of a Required Majority if (i) the proposed participation of the
Company and each Fund in such disposition is proportionate to its outstanding investments in the issuer immediately preceding the
disposition; (ii) the Company’s Board has approved as being in the best interests of the Company the ability to participate
in such dispositions on a pro rata basis (as described in greater detail in this Application); and (iii) the Company’s Board
of is provided on a quarterly basis with a list of all dispositions made in accordance with this conditions. In all other cases,
GC Advisors will provide its written recommendation as to the Company’s participation to the Eligible Directors, and the
Company will participate in such disposition solely to the extent that a Required Majority determines that it is in the Company’s
best interests.
(d) The Company and
each of the Funds will bear its own expenses in connection with any such disposition.
8. (a) If any Fund
desires to make a “follow-on investment” (
i.e.
, an additional investment in the same entity) in a portfolio
company whose securities were acquired by the Company and such Fund in a Co-Investment Transaction or to exercise warrants or other
rights to purchase securities of the issuer, GC Advisors will:
(i) notify the Company
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 the Company.
(b) The Company may
participate in such follow-on investment without obtaining prior approval of a Required Majority if (i) the proposed participation
of the Company and each Fund in such investment is proportionate to its outstanding investments in the issuer immediately preceding
the follow-on investment; and (ii) the Company’s Board has approved as being in the best interests of the Company 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, GC Advisors will provide its written recommendation as to the Company’s participation to the Eligible Directors, and
the Company will participate in such follow-on investment solely to the extent that a Required Majority determines that it is in
the Company’s best interests.
(c) If, with respect
to any follow-on investment:
(i) the amount of the
opportunity is not based on the Company’s and the Funds’ outstanding investments immediately preceding the follow-on
investment; and
(ii) the aggregate
amount recommended by GC Advisors to be invested by the Company in such follow-on investment, together with the amount proposed
to be invested by the Funds in the same follow-on investment, exceeds the amount of the opportunity, then the amount of the investment
opportunity will be allocated among them
pro rata
based on the amount that each party would have invested if the amount
of the investment opportunity was sufficient to satisfy each party’s proposed investment.
(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 the Application.
9. The Independent
Directors will be provided quarterly for review all information concerning Potential Co-Investment Transactions and Co-Investment
Transactions during the preceding quarter, including investments made by any Funds which the Company considered but declined to
participate in, so that the Independent Directors may determine whether all investments made during the preceding quarter, including
those investments which the Company considered but declined to participate in, comply with the conditions of the order. In addition,
the Independent Directors will consider at least annually the continued appropriateness for the Company of participating in new
and existing Co-Investment Transactions.
10. The Company will
maintain the records required by section 57(f)(3) of the 1940 Act as if each of the investments permitted under these conditions
were approved by the Eligible Directors under section 57(f).
11. No Independent
Director 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 Funds.
12. 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) shall, to the extent
not payable by GC Advisors under its investment advisory agreements with the Company and Funds, be shared by the Company and the
Funds in proportion to the relative amounts of their securities to be acquired or disposed of, as the case may be.
13. Any transaction
fee (including break-up or commitment fees but excluding brokers’ fees contemplated by section 17(e) or 57(k) of the 1940
Act) received in connection with a Co-Investment Transaction will be distributed to the Company and the participating Funds on
a
pro rata
basis based on the amount they invested or committed, as the case may be, in such Co-Investment Transaction.
If any transaction fee is to be held by GC Advisors pending consummation of the transaction, the fee will be deposited into an
account maintained by GC Advisors at a bank or banks having the qualifications prescribed in section 26(a)(1) of the 1940 Act,
and the account will earn a competitive rate of interest that will also be divided
pro rata
between the Company and the
participating Funds based on the amount they invest in such Co-Investment Transaction. None of the participating Funds nor any
affiliated person of the Company will receive additional compensation or remuneration of any kind as a result of or in connection
with a Co-Investment Transaction (other than (i) the
pro rata
transaction fees described above or other compensation described
in condition 2(c)(iii)(C) and (ii) in the case of GC Advisors and the Controlled Advisers, investment advisory and administrative
fees paid in accordance with the Company’s and the Funds’ investment advisory and administration agreements).
