(h) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of this Agreement and the consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents, if any, of such Investor, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including Federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Investor, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, that do not otherwise affect the ability of such Investor to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(i) Restricted Securities.

(1) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement by the Adviser and the consummation by the Adviser of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (a) conflict with or violate any provision of the Adviser’s organization documents, or (b) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any material agreement, lease, license, indenture, note, bond, permit, concession, franchise or other instrument (evidencing a Adviser debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which the Adviser is a party or by which any property or asset of the Adviser is bound or affected, or (c) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the Adviser is subject (including Federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Adviser is bound or affected; except in the case of each of clauses (b) and (c), such as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(2) The Adviser is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any United States court or other Federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Adviser of this Agreement or the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement, other than registration as an investment adviser under the applicable Federal and state laws. The Adviser possesses all

certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate Federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct its business, except (i) registration as an investment adviser under applicable Federal and state laws, and (ii) where the failure to possess such permits could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and the Adviser has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such permits.

(d) Litigation. There is no Action pending, or threatened in writing, against or affecting the Adviser or its properties or adversely affecting or challenging the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement, which, if there were an unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Adviser nor any director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity as such), is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under Federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been, and to the knowledge of the Adviser, there is not pending any investigation by the Commission involving the Adviser or any current or former director or officer of the Adviser (in his or her capacity as such).

(e) Compliance with Applicable Laws. The Adviser (i) is not in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Adviser under), nor has the Adviser received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is not in violation of any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is not or has not been in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, except in each case as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Registered Investment Adviser. The Adviser is not duly registered under the Advisers Act but intends to register as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act within three (3) calendar months following the date of this Agreement. The Adviser is not prohibited by the Advisers Act, the 1940 Act or the published rules and regulations thereunder from acting under the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement. There does not exist any Proceeding or, to the Adviser’s knowledge, any facts or circumstances the existence of which reasonably would be likely to lead to any Proceedings which might adversely affect the registration of the Adviser with the Commission.

Each Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Adviser has not made nor makes any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 3.3.

ARTICLE 4.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1. Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Common Shares may only be disposed of in compliance with state and Federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Common Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, to the Company, to an Affiliate of an Investor or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Common Shares under the Securities Act.

(b) Certificates evidencing the Common Shares will contain the following legend, until such time as the legend is not required under Section 4.1(d):

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that an Investor may from time to time pledge, and/or grant a security interest in some or all of the Common Shares pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement in connection with a bona fide margin account and, if required under the terms of such agreement or account, such Investor may transfer pledged or secured Common Shares to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval or consent of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion may be required in connection with a subsequent transfer following default by the Investor transferee of the pledge. No notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Investor’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Common Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Common Shares, including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(d), any Common Shares subject to a pledge or security

interest as contemplated by this Section 4.1(b) shall continue to bear the legend set forth in this Section 4.1(b) and be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4.1(a).

(d) The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Common Shares upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (i) such Common Shares are registered for resale under the Securities Act, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of a law firm reasonably acceptable to the Company, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Common Shares may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, or (iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurance that the Common Shares can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144.

(e) The Company has not registered with the Commission as an investment company pursuant to the 1940 Act in reliance on the exemption contained in Section 3(c)(1) thereunder. As a result, investing in the Company’s Common Shares will be subject to the following additional restrictions until the Company elects to be regulated as a business development company: (i) the Company intends to limit the ownership of its common stock to no more than 100 beneficial owners who meet the other conditions described in Section 3(c)(1) of the 1940 Act, (ii) any transfer that would result in the Company’s common stock (including the Common Shares offered hereby) being held by more than 100 beneficial owners will be void and any intended recipient of shares in violation of such provisions will acquire no rights in such shares and will not be treated as stockholder for any purpose, (iii) during the time that the Company is relying on Section 3(c)(1) exemption under the 1940 Act, if such Investor is not a natural person, the beneficial owners of the equity securities of the Investor does not, and will not, exceed five natural persons, directly or indirectly through intermediary entities, and (iv) the Company will not sell, and is not soliciting any offers to buy, Common Shares from any person or entity that is a benefit plan investor within the meaning of applicable Department of Labor regulations, whether or not subject to regulation under the ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code; provided, however, that investments by individual retirement accounts or other similar arrangements are permitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall retain the authority to waive any such restrictions, in its sole and absolute discretion, provided that any such waiver will not result in the loss of the exemption contained in Section 3(c)(1) of the 1940 Act or otherwise violate applicable law.

4.2. Reservation of Securities. The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement in such amount as may be required to fulfill its obligations to issue such Common Shares under this Agreement.

4.3. Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Common Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Common Shares to the Investors.

4.4. Form N-2 Registration Statement; BDC Election. Within sixty (60) calendar days following the final closing of the Offering, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission the Form N-2 Registration to register its shares of Common Stock under Section 6 of the Securities Act. Concurrently with the filing of the Form N-2 Registration Statement with the Commission, the Company shall also file its election to be regulated as a business development company on Form N-54A with the Commission. The Company shall respond as promptly as reasonably possible, and in any event within ten (10) business days (except to the extent that the Company reasonably requires additional time to respond to accounting comments), to any comments received from the Commission with respect to the Form N-2 Registration Statement or any amendment thereto.

4.5. Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Common Shares as required under Regulation D under the Securities Act and to provide a copy thereof to each requesting Investor promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the each Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Common Shares for, sale to the Investors at each Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to each requesting Investor on or prior to each such Closing Date. The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Common Shares required under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States within such time periods as required under such laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any filing with the Commission (other than the Form N-2 Registration Statement and any exhibits to filings made in respect of this transaction in accordance with periodic filing requirements under the Exchange Act) or any regulatory agency or OTC Bulletin Board, without the prior written consent of such Investor, except to the extent such disclosure is required by law or regulations.

4.6 Indemnification of Investors.

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold the Investors and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees and agents (each, an “Investor Party”, collectively, the “Investor Parties”) harmless from any and all Losses that any such Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement. In addition to the indemnity contained herein, the Company will reimburse each Investor Party for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred. It shall be understood, however, that the Company shall not, in connection with any one such Proceeding (including separate Proceedings that have been or will be consolidated before a single judge) be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Investor Parties, which firm shall be appointed by a majority of the Investor Parties.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no party shall be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement in violation of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act.

4.7. Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that from and after the final Closing under this Agreement neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Investor shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Investor shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

4.8. Use of Proceeds. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares hereunder to (i) enter into letters of intent with potential portfolio companies, (ii) pay management and incentive fees to the Adviser as the Company’s investment adviser for investment advisory services, (iii) pay administrative expenses incurred on behalf of the Company by the Company’s investment adviser, (iv) pay marketing and investor relations expenses and other operating expenses of the Company, including without limitation, all legal fees and costs incurred by the Company relating to, or arising from, this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the letters of intent with potential portfolio companies. Pending such uses, the Company will invest the net proceeds primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality investments that mature in one year or less from the date of investment. The Company will not use the net proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares for the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables and accrued expenses in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and consistent with prior practices), or to redeem any Common Stock.

4.9. D&O Insurance; Indemnity Agreements. The Company: (i) within ninety (90) days of the Final Closing of the Offering, shall obtain directors and officers insurance coverage for its directors and officers in coverage and amounts determined reasonably sufficient by the Company’s Board of Directors, consistent with other similarly situated companies in the same industry, and (ii) prior to the initial Closing of the Offering, shall have executed and delivered an indemnity agreement with each director of the Company (each, a Director Indemnity Agreement”).

6.6. Construction. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. This Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

6.7. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company and the Adviser may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Investors.

6.9. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state or Federal courts sitting in Orange County, California (“California Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the

California Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such California Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. If either party shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.

6.10. Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Common Shares.

6.11. Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.

6.12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

6.13. Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) this Agreement, whenever any Investor exercises a right, election, demand or option under this Agreement and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Investor may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

6.14. Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Common Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Common Shares. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Common Shares is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.

6.15. Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Investors and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.16. Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Investor pursuant to this Agreement or an Investor enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or Federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

6.17. Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under this Agreement. The decision of each Investor to purchase Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Common Shares or enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the
