If the Insured shall, while this bond is in force, establish any additional offices, other than by consolidation or merger with, or purchase or acquisition of assets or liabilities of, another institution, such offices shall be automatically covered hereunder from the date of such establishment without the requirement of notice to the Underwriter or the payment of additional premium for the remainder of the premium period.

R * B0 * 06/13/2022 * FS 0629165 10 00    Great American Insurance Company      
      017969

has occurred or will occur in offices or premises, or

 

  (2)

has been caused or will be caused by an employee or employees of such institution, or

 

  (3)

has arisen or will arise out of the assets or liabilities acquired by the Insured as a result of such consolidation, merger or purchase or acquisition of assets or liabilities unless the Insured shall

 

  (i)

give the Underwriter written notice of the proposed consolidation, merger or purchase or acquisition of assets or liabilities prior to the proposed effective date of such action and

 

  (ii)

obtain the written consent of the Underwriter to extend the coverage provided by this bond to such additional offices or premises, Employees and other exposures, and

F.

The Insured shall notify the Underwriter at the earliest practicable moment, not to exceed 30 days after notice thereof, of any legal proceeding brought to determine the Insured’s liability for any loss, claim or damage, which, if established, would constitute a collectible loss under this bond. Concurrently, the Insured shall furnish copies of all pleadings and pertinent papers to the Underwriter.

The Underwriter, at its sole option, may elect to conduct the defense of such legal proceeding, in whole or in part. The defense by the Underwriter shall be in the Insured’s name through attorneys selected by the Underwriter. The Insured shall provide all reasonable information and assistance required by the Underwriter for such defense.

If the Underwriter elects to defend the Insured, in whole or in part, any judgment against the Insured on those counts or causes of action which the Underwriter defended on behalf of the Insured or any settlement in which the Underwriter participates and all attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Underwriter in the defense of the litigation shall be a loss covered by this bond.

If the Insured does not give the notices required in subsection (a) of Section 5. of this bond and in the first paragraph of this General Agreement, or if the Underwriter elects not to defend any causes of action, neither a judgment against the Insured, nor a settlement of any legal proceeding by the Insured, shall determine the existence, extent or amount of coverage under this bond for loss sustained by the Insured, and the Underwriter shall not be liable for any attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Insured.

With respect to this General Agreement, subsections (b) and (d) of Section 5. of this bond apply upon the entry of such judgment or the occurrence of such settlement instead of upon discovery of loss. In addition, the Insured must notify the Underwriter within 30 days after such judgment is entered against it or after the Insured settles such legal proceeding, and, subject to subsection (e) of Section 5., the Insured may not bring legal proceedings for the recovery of such loss after the expiration of 24 months from the date of such final judgment or settlement.

Discovery

Section 3. This bond applies to loss discovered by the Insured during the Bond Period. Discovery occurs when the Insured first becomes aware of facts which would cause a reasonable person to assume that a loss of a type covered by this bond has been or will be incurred, regardless of when the act or acts causing or contributing to such loss occurred, even though the exact amount or details of loss may not then be known.

Discovery also occurs when the Insured receives notice of an actual or potential claim in which it is alleged that the Insured is liable to a third party under circumstances which, if true, would constitute a loss under this bond.

LIMIT OF LIABILITY

Section 4.

Aggregate Limit Of Liability

The Underwriter’s total liability for all losses discovered during the Bond Period shown in Item 2. of the Declarations shall not exceed the Aggregate Limit of Liability shown in Item 3. of the Declarations. The Aggregate Limit of Liability shall be reduced by the amount of any payment made under the terms of this bond.

Upon exhaustion of the Aggregate Limit of Liability by such payments:

 

  (a)

The Underwriter shall have no further liability for loss or losses regardless of when discovered and whether or not previously reported to the Underwriter, and

 

  (b)

The Underwriter shall have no obligation under General Agreement F to continue the defense of the Insured, and upon notice by the Underwriter to the Insured that the Aggregate Limit of Liability has been exhausted, the Insured shall assume all responsibility for its defense at its own cost.

The Aggregate Limit of Liability shall not be increased or reinstated by any recovery made and applied in accordance with subsections (a), (b) and (c) of Section 7. In the event that a loss of Property is settled by the Underwriter through the use of a lost instrument bond, such loss shall not reduce the Aggregate Limit of Liability.

Single Loss Limit of Liability

Subject to the Aggregate Limit of Liability, the Underwriter’s liability for each Single Loss shall not exceed the applicable Single Loss Limit of Liability shown in Item 4 of the Declarations. If a Single Loss is covered under more than one Insuring Agreement or Coverage, the maximum payable shall not exceed the largest applicable Single Loss Limit of Liability.

Single Loss Defined

Single Loss means all covered loss, including court costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Underwriter under General Agreement F., resulting from

 

  (a)

any one act or series of related acts of burglary, robbery or attempt thereat, in which no Employee is implicated, or

 

  (b)

any one act or series of related unintentional or negligent acts or omissions on the part of any person (whether an Employee or not) resulting in damage to or destruction or misplacement of Property, or

      017969   
        

    

 

  (c)

all acts or omissions other than those specified in (a) and (b) preceding, caused by any person (whether an Employee or not) or in which such person is implicated, or

 

  (d)

any one casualty or event not specified in (a), (b) or (c) preceding.

NOTICE/PROOF - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AGAINST UNDERWRITER

Section 5.

 

  (a)

At the earliest practicable moment, not to exceed 30 days, after discovery of loss, the Insured shall give the Underwriter notice thereof.

 

  (b)

Within 6 months after such discovery, the Insured shall furnish to the Underwriter proof of loss, duly sworn to, with full particulars.

 

  (c)

Lost Certificated Securities listed in a proof of loss shall be identified by certificate or bond numbers if such securities were issued therewith.

 

  (d)

Legal proceedings for the recovery of any loss hereunder shall not be brought prior to the expiration of 60 days after the original proof of loss is filed with the Underwriter or after the expiration of 24 months from the discovery of such loss.

 

  (e)

If any limitation embodied in this bond is prohibited by any law controlling the construction hereof, such limitation shall be deemed to be amended so as to equal the minimum period of limitation provided by such law.

 

  (f)

This bond affords coverage only in favor of the Insured. No suit, action or legal proceedings shall be brought hereunder by any one other than the Named Insured.

VALUATION

Section 6. Any loss of Money, or loss payable in Money, shall be paid, at the option of the Insured, in the Money of the country in which the loss was sustained or in the United States of America dollar equivalent thereof determined at the rate of exchange at the time of payment of such loss.

Securities

The Underwriter shall settle in kind its liability under this bond on account of a loss of any securities or, at the option of the Insured, shall pay to the Insured the cost of replacing such securities, determined by the market value thereof at the time of such settlement. However, if prior to such settlement the Insured shall be compelled by the demands of a third party or by market rules to purchase equivalent securities, and gives written notification of this to the Underwriter, the cost incurred by the Insured shall be taken as the value of those securities. In case of a loss of subscription, conversion or redemption privileges through the misplacement or loss of securities, the amount of such loss shall be the value of such privileges immediately preceding the expiration thereof. If such securities cannot be replaced or have no quoted market value, or if such privileges have no quoted market value, their value shall be determined by agreement or arbitration.

If the applicable coverage of this bond is subject to a Deductible Amount and/or is not sufficient in amount to indemnify the Insured in full for the loss of securities for which claim is made hereunder, the liability of the Underwriter under this bond is limited to the payment for, or the duplication of, so much of such securities as has a value equal to the amount of such applicable coverage.

Books of Account and Other Records

In case of loss of, or damage to, any books of account or other records used by the Insured in its business, the Underwriter shall be liable under this bond only if such books or records are actually reproduced and then for not more than the cost of the blank books, blank pages or other materials plus the cost of labor for the actual transcription or copying of data which shall have been furnished by the Insured in order to reproduce such books and other records.

Property other than Money, Securities or Records

In case of loss of, or damage to, any Property other than Money, securities, books of account or other records, or damage covered under Insuring Agreement (B)(2), the Underwriter shall not be liable for more than the actual cash value of such Property, or of items covered under Insuring Agreement (B)(2). The Underwriter may, at its election, pay the actual cash value of, replace or repair such property. Disagreement between the Underwriter and the Insured as to the cash value or as to the adequacy of repair or replacement shall be resolved by arbitration.

Set-Off

Any loss covered under this bond shall be reduced by a set-off consisting of any amount owed to the Employee causing the loss if such loss is covered under Insuring Agreement(A).

ASSIGNMENT - SUBROGATION - RECOVERY

Section 7.

 

(a)

In the event of payment, under this bond, the Insured shall deliver, if so requested by the Underwriter, an assignment of such of the Insured’s rights, title and interest and causes of action as it has against any person or entity to the extent of the loss payment.

 

(b)

In the event of payment under this bond, the Underwriter shall be subrogated to all of the Insured’s rights of recovery therefor against any person or entity to the extent of such payment.

 

(c)

Recoveries, whether effected by the Underwriter or by the Insured, shall be applied net of the expense of such recovery first to the satisfaction of the Insured’s loss which would otherwise have been paid but for the fact that it is in excess of either the Single or Aggregate Limit of Liability, secondly, to the Underwriter as reimbursement of amounts paid in settlement of the Insured’s claim, and thirdly, to the Insured in satisfaction of any Deductible Amount. Recovery on account of loss of securities as set forth in the second paragraph of Section 6 or recovery from reinsurance and/or indemnity of the Underwriter shall not be deemed a recovery as used herein.

  (1)

submit to examination by the Underwriter and subscribe to the same under oath; and

Section 8. With respect to any loss set forth in sub-section (c) of Section 4. of this bond which is recoverable or recovered in whole or in part under any other bonds or policies issued by the Underwriter to the Insured or to any predecessor in interest of the Insured and terminated or canceled or allowed to expire and in which the period for discovery has not expired at the time any such loss thereunder is discovered, the total liability of the Underwriter under this bond and under such other bonds or policies shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the amount carried hereunder on such loss or the amount available to the Insured under such other bonds or policies, as limited by the terms and conditions thereof, for any such loss if the latter amount be the larger.

If the coverage of this bond supersedes in whole or in part the coverage of any other bond or policy of insurance issued by an Insurer other than the Underwriter and terminated, canceled or allowed to expire, the Underwriter, with respect to any loss sustained prior to such termination, cancelation or expiration and discovered within the period permitted under such other bond or policy for the discovery of loss thereunder, shall be liable under this bond only for that part of such loss covered by this bond as is in excess of the amount recoverable or recovered on account of such loss under such other bond or policy, anything to the contrary in such other bond or policy notwithstanding.

Loss resulting directly from the fact that an Issuer of securities, transfer agent, bank, banker or trust company received from the Insured or the New York Stock Exchange specimen copies of the Insured’s mechanically reproduced facsimile signature and acted in reliance upon any false, fraudulent or unauthorized reproduction of such facsimile signature, whether such facsimile signature is the facsimile signature duly adopted by the Insured or is one resembling or purporting to be such facsimile signature, regardless of by whom or by what means the same may have been imprinted, and whether or not such loss is sustained by reason of the Insured’s having entered into an agreement to be legally liable when such facsimile signature or one resembling or purporting to be such facsimile signature is used, provided, however, that

 

  (a)

such facsimile signature is used on a document

 

  (1)

as the signature to an assignment or other instrument authorizing or effecting the transfer of shares of stock, or other registered securities, which may now or at any time hereafter be registered in the name of the Insured on the books of the association, company or corporation issuing the same; or

 

  (2)

as the signature to a power of substitution, designating a substitute or substitutes to make the actual transfer on the books of the issuer of shares of stock, or other registered securities, in respect of which the Insured may now or at any time hereafter be named as attorney to effect said transfer, whether said power of substitution is embodied in an endorsement on the certificate for said shares of stock or other registered security or in a separate instrument;

 

  (b)

the New York Stock Exchange has not interposed any objections to the use by the Insured of such facsimile signature and such agreement, if any, was required by the said Exchange as a condition to its failing to interpose any such objection; and

 

  (c)

this Insuring Agreement (G) shall not apply to any Certificated Securities which are Counterfeit.”

 

2.

Sub-sections (a) and (e) of Section 2 of the attached bond shall not apply to Insuring Agreement (G).

No. FS 0629165 10 00

In favor of MSD Partners, L.P.

It is agreed that:

 

1.

Part (a) of the section entitled “Termination or Cancelation” of this Bond/Policy is deleted and cancelation of this Bond/Policy by the Underwriter/Company is subject to the following provisions:

 

  a.

If this Bond/Policy has been in effect for 60 days or less, the underwriter/company may cancel this Bond/Policy by mailing or delivering to the first Named Insured written notice of cancelation at least:

 

  (1)

20 days before the effective date of cancelation if the underwriter/company cancels for any reason not included in paragraph (2) below.

 

  (2)

15 days before the effective date of cancelation if the underwriter/company cancels for any of the following reasons:

 

  (i)

nonpayment of premium provided, however, that a notice of cancelation for this reason shall inform the Insured of the amount due;

 

  (ii)

conviction of a crime arising out of acts increasing the hazard insured against;

 

  (iii)

discovery of fraud or material misrepresentation in the obtaining of the Bond/Policy or in the presentation of a claim;

 

  (iv)

after issuance of the Bond/Policy or after the last renewal date, discovery of an act or omission, or a violation of a Bond/Policy condition, that substantially and materially increases the hazard insured against, and that occurred subsequent to inception of the current Bond/Policy period;

 

  (v)

material physical change in the property insured, occurring after issuance or last annual renewal anniversary date of the Bond/Policy, that results in the property becoming uninsurable in accordance with our objective, uniformly applied underwriting standards in effect at the time the Bond/Policy was issued or last renewed; or material change in the nature or extent of the risk, occurring after issuance or last annual renewal anniversary date of the Bond/Policy, that causes the risk of loss to be substantially and materially increased beyond that contemplated at the time the Bond/Policy was issued or last renewed;

 

  (vi)

required pursuant to a determination by the Superintendent that continuation of our present premium volume would jeopardize our solvency or be hazardous to the interest of our policyholders, our creditors or the public;

 

  (vii)

a determination by the Superintendent that the continuation of the Bond/Policy would violate, or would place us in violation of, any provision of the Insurance Code; or

  (viii)

where the underwriter/company has reason to believe, in good faith and with sufficient cause, that there is a probable risk of danger that an insured will destroy, or permit to be destroyed, the Insured property for the purpose of collecting the insurance proceeds. If the underwriter/company cancels for this reason, the first Named Insured may make a written request to the Insurance Department, within 10 days of receipt of this notice, to review the cancelation decision. Also, the underwriter/company will simultaneously send a copy of the cancelation notice to the Insurance Department.

 

  b.

If this Bond/Policy has been in effect for more than 60 days, or if this Bond/Policy is a renewal or continuation of a Bond/Policy the underwriter/company issued, the underwriter/company may cancel only for any of the reasons listed in paragraph 2. above, provided the underwriter/company mails the first Named Insured written notice at least 15 days before the effective date of cancelation. If cancelation is for nonpayment of premium, the notice of cancelation shall inform the Insured of the amount due.

 

  c.

The underwriter/company will mail or deliver notice, including the reason for cancelation, to the first Named Insured at the address shown in the Bond/Policy and to the authorized agent or broker.

 

  d.

If this Bond/Policy is canceled, the underwriter/company will send the first Named Insured any premium refund due. If the underwriter/company cancels, the refund will be pro rata. If the first Named Insured cancels, the refund may be less than pro rata. However, when the premium is advanced under a premium finance agreement, the cancelation refund will be pro rata. Under such financed policies, the underwriter/company will be entitled to retain a minimum earned premium of 10% of the total premium or $60, whichever is greater. The cancelation will be effective even if the underwriter/company has not made or offered a refund.

 

  e.

If one of the reasons for cancelation in paragraph a.(2) exists, the underwriter/company may cancel this entire Bond/Policy, even if the reason for cancelation pertains only to a new coverage or endorsement initially effective subsequent to the original issuance of this Bond/Policy.

 

2.

Renewal or nonrenewal of this Bond/Policy by the Underwriter/Company is subject to the following provisions:

 

  a.

If the underwriter/company decides not to renew this Bond/Policy, it will send notice as provided in paragraph c. below.

 

  b.

If the underwriter/company conditionally renews this Bond/Policy subject to a change of limits, change in type of coverage, reduction of coverage, increased deductible, addition of exclusion, or increased premiums in excess of 10% (exclusive of any premium increase due to insured value added, increased exposure units, or as a result of experience rating, loss rating, retrospective rating or audit) the underwriter/company will send notice as provided in paragraph c. below.

 

  c.

If the underwriter/company decides not to renew this Bond/Policy, or to conditionally renew this Bond/Policy as provided in paragraph 2.b. above, the underwriter/company will mail or deliver written notice to the first Named Insured shown in the Declarations at least 60 days, but not more than 120 days, before the expiration date of the Bond/Policy or, the anniversary date if this is a continuous Bond/Policy.

 

  d.

Notice will be mailed or delivered to the first Named Insured at the address shown in the Bond/Policy and to the authorized agent or broker. If notice is mailed, proof of mailing will be sufficient proof of notice.

 

  e.

Notice will include the availability of loss information and the specific reason(s) for nonrenewal or conditional renewal, including the amount of any premium increase for conditional renewal and a description of any other changes.

 

  f.

If the underwriter/company violates the provisions of paragraph c. above by sending the first Named Insured an incomplete or late conditional renewal notice or a late nonrenewal notice:

  (1)

prior to the expiration date of the Bond/Policy, coverage will remain in effect at the same terms and conditions of this Bond/Policy at the lower of the current rates or the prior period’s rates until 60 days after such notice is mailed or delivered, unless the first Named Insured, during this 60 day period, has replaced the coverage or elects to cancel; provided, however, that if the Insured elects to renew on the basis of a conditional renewal notice and the notice was provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of this Policy, then the terms, conditions and rates set forth in the conditional renewal notice shall apply as of the renewal date; or

 

  (2)

on or after the expiration date of this Bond/Policy, coverage will remain in effect at the same terms and conditions of this Bond/Policy for another required Bond/Policy period, at the lower of the current rates or the prior period’s rates, unless the first Named Insured, during this additional required Bond/Policy period, has replaced the coverage or elects to cancel.

 

  g.

The underwriter/company need not send notice of nonrenewal or conditional renewal if the first Named Insured, its authorized agent or broker or another insurer of the first Named Insured mails or delivers notice that the Bond/Policy has been replaced or is no longer desired.

No. FS 0629165 10 00

in favor of MSD Partners, L.P.

It is agreed that:

 

  1.

The bond is amended by adding an additional Insuring Agreement as follows:

ERISA FRAUD OR DISHONESTY

Loss incurred by an Employee Benefit Plan named in this bond resulting directly from Fraud or Dishonesty committed by a Covered Person. Coverage afforded by this Insuring Agreement extends only to Employee Benefit Plans named in this bond, and does not extend to Insureds that are not Employee Benefit Plans.

 

  2.

For the purposes of the ERISA Fraud or Dishonesty Insuring Agreement, the following definitions are added:

 

  a.

Covered Person means any natural person who is

 

  i.

A trustee, officer, employee, administrator or manager, except an administrator or manager who is an independent contractor, of any Employee Benefit Plan insured under this Insuring Agreement; or

 

  ii.

A director, officer, employee or trustee of a named Insured, but only while that person is handling funds or property of an Employee Benefit Plan insured under this Insuring Agreement;

but does not include any agent, broker, person leased to the Insured or the Employee Benefit Plan by a labor leasing firm, factor, commission merchant, consignee, independent contractor or representative of the same general character.

 

  b.

Employee Benefit Plan(s) means any welfare or pension benefit plan the majority of whose beneficiaries are Employees or former Employees of the Insured, listed in the Declarations as an Insured and subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended.

 

  c.

Fraud or Dishonesty means larceny, theft, embezzlement, forgery, misappropriation, wrongful abstraction, wrongful conversion or willful misapplication, or any other fraudulent or dishonest act, including acts prohibited by title 18, section 1954 of the U.S. Code.

 

  d.

Occurrence means all loss or losses caused by, or involving, any one Covered Person, acting alone or in collusion with others.

 

  3.

For the purposes of this Insuring Agreement only, Exclusions (a), (d), (e), (g), (h), (i), (k), (I), (m), (n), (o), (p), (q), (r), (bb) and (cc) are deleted and the following exclusions are added:

 

  a.

loss resulting from the dishonest or fraudulent acts of a Covered Person if the Insured, or any employee, trustee, fiduciary or plan administrator of an Insured Employee Benefit Plan who is not in collusion with such Covered Person, knows or knew prior to such loss of any prior dishonest or fraudulent act committed by such person, whether in the employment of the Insured or any Insured Employee Benefit Plan or otherwise, whether or not of the type covered under this bond and without regard to whether the knowledge was obtained before or after the commencement of this bond.

  b.

loss resulting from the negligence of a Covered Person.

 

  c.

loss resulting from the theft, disappearance, destruction or disclosure of confidential information including, but not limited to, trade secrets, personal information, personally identifiable information, customer lists and intellectual property; provided however that this exclusion will not apply to loss that is otherwise covered under this bond, caused by a Covered Person’s access to, use of, or disclosure of confidential information to commit acts of Fraud or Dishonesty.

 

  4.

For the purposes of this Insuring Agreement only, the ADDITIONAL OFFICES OR EMPLOYEES - CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR PURCHASE OF ASSETS - NOTICE General Agreement is deleted and replaced with the following:

If through consolidation or merger with, or purchase or acquisition of assets or liabilities of, some other entity any additional persons become Covered Persons:

 

  a.

The Insured must give the Underwriter written notice and obtain its written consent to extend this bond to such additional Covered Persons. The Underwriter may condition its consent upon payment of an additional premium; but

 

  b.

For the first 60 days after the effective date of such consolidation, merger or purchase or acquisition of assets or liabilities, any insurance afforded for Covered Persons also applies to these additional Covered Persons for acts committed or events occurring within said 60 day period.

 

  5.

For the purposes of this Insuring Agreement only, the INSURED’S ERISA PLANS General Agreement is deleted and replaced with the following:

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

 

  a.

It is the responsibility of the Insured to select a Limit of Insurance for the Insuring Agreement that is sufficient to provide a limit that is at least equal to that required under ERISA if each Employee Benefit Plan were separately insured.

 

  b.

Any payment we make to the Insured for loss sustained by any Employee Benefit Plan will be held by the Insured for the use and benefit of the plan(s) sustaining the loss.

 

  c.

If two or more Employee Benefit Plans are insured under this insurance, any payment we make for loss:

 

  (i)

Sustained by two or more Employee Benefit Plans; or

 

  (ii)

Of commingled Property of two or more Employee Benefit Plans;

that arises out of one Occurrence and cannot be allocated specifically to any one Employee Benefit Plan, is to be shared by each Employee Benefit Plan sustaining loss in the proportion that the limit of insurance required under ERISA for each such Employee Benefit Plan bears to the total of those limits.

 

  d.

Notwithstanding Section 3 of the Conditions and Limitations of this bond, the Underwriter will pay for loss that is sustained by an Insured Employee Benefit Plan prior to the effective date of termination or cancellation of this bond, which is discovered by the Insured within one year following the date of termination or cancellation. However, this extended period to discover loss terminates immediately upon the effective date of any other insurance obtained by the Insured that offers the same coverage afforded by this Insuring Agreement in an amount no less than the minimum amount required under ERISA section 412 and provides coverage for loss sustained prior to its effective date. If this Insuring Agreement is canceled or terminated as to any covered Employee Benefit Plan, this extended period to discover a loss applies separately to that Employee Benefit Plan.

  e.

The deductible required by Section 12 of the Conditions and Limitations of this bond shall be applicable to a loss suffered by an Employee Benefit Plan only after that Employee Benefit Plan has received from the Underwriter:

 

  i.

$500,000; or

 

  ii.

$1,000,000, if the employee benefit plan holds “employer securities” within the meaning of section 407(d)(1) of ERISA.

 

  6.

The following Condition is added for the purposes of this Insuring Agreement:

Cancellation as to Any Covered Person

Coverage under this bond is canceled as to any Covered Person:

 

  a.

Immediately upon discovery by any Insured, or by any employee, trustee, fiduciary or plan administrator of an Insured Employee Benefit Plan who is not in collusion with the Covered Person, of any dishonest act committed by that Covered Person whether before or after becoming a Covered Person. Whether such discovery occurs prior to or after commencement of this bond, there is no coverage under the Insuring Agreement for loss or losses resulting from acts committed by that Covered Person after the date of such discovery.

 

  b.

On the date specified in a notice mailed to the Insured. That date will be at least 30 days after the date of mailing. The mailing of notice to the Insured at the last mailing address known to the Underwriter will be sufficient proof of notice. Delivery of notice is the same as mailing.

Revision to Insuring Agreement A

 

1.

Insuring Agreement A (Fidelity) is deleted in its entirety, and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:

 

  (A)

Loss resulting directly from dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by an Employee acting alone or in collusion with others.

Such dishonest or fraudulent acts must be committed by the Employee with the intent:

(a) to cause the Insured to sustain such loss, or

(b) to obtain financial benefit for the Employee or another person or entity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that with regard to Loans and/or Trading this bond covers only loss resulting directly from dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by an Employee with the intent to cause the Insured to sustain such loss and which results in a financial benefit for the Employee. However, where the proceeds of a dishonest or fraudulent act committed by an Employee arising from Loans and/or Trading are actually received by persons with whom the Employee was acting in collusion, but said Employee fails to derive a financial benefit therefrom, such a loss will nevertheless be covered hereunder as if the Employee had obtained such benefit provided the Insured establishes that the Employee intended to participate therein.

The term “Trading” as used in this Insuring Agreement shall be deemed to mean buying or selling or other dealings in securities, commodities, futures, options, foreign or federal funds, currencies, foreign exchange and the like.

The term “Loan” as used in this Insuring Agreement shall be deemed to mean all extensions of credit by the Insured and all transactions creating a creditor relationship in favor of the Insured and all transactions by which the Insured assumes an existing creditor relationship.

 

  (B)

Loss resulting from the malicious destruction of or the malicious damage to property, electronic data or electronic data processing media committed by an employee, where committed alone or in collusion with others, which acts are committed with the intent to cause the Insured to sustain a loss.

As used throughout this Insuring Agreement financial benefit does not include any employee benefits earned in the normal course of employment, including salaries, commissions, fees, bonuses, promotions, awards, profit sharing or pensions.

WHEREAS, Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17g-1(a) thereunder require a BDC, such as the Company, to provide and maintain a bond which has been issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company authorized to do business in the place where the bond is issued, to protect the Company against larceny and embezzlement, covering each officer and employee of the BDC who may singly, or jointly with others, have access to the securities or funds of the BDC, either directly or through authority to draw upon such funds of, or to direct generally, the disposition of such securities, unless the officer or employee has such access solely through his position as an officer or employee of a bank (each, a “covered person”);

WHEREAS, Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 17g-1”) specifies that the bond may be in the form of (i) an individual bond for each covered person, or a schedule or blanket bond covering such persons, (ii) a blanket bond which names the Company as the only insured (a “single insured bond”), or (iii) a bond which names the Company and one or more other parties as insureds (a “joint insured bond”), as permitted by Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act;

WHEREAS, the Company intends to satisfy the requirements under Rule 17g-1 by entering into a joint insured bond with other parties as allowed under Rule 17g-1(b);

WHEREAS, Rule 17g-1 requires that a majority of the Independent Directors approve periodically (but not less than once every 12 months) the reasonableness of the form and amount of the bond, with due consideration to the value of the aggregate assets of the Company to which any covered person may have access, the type and terms of the arrangements made for the custody and safekeeping of such assets, and the nature of securities and other investments to be held by the Company, and pursuant to factors contained in Rule 17g-1; and

WHEREAS, under Rule 17g-1, the Company is required to make certain filings with the SEC and give certain notices to each member of the Board in connection with the bond, and designate an officer who shall make such filings and give such notices.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, having considered the expected aggregate value of the securities and funds of the Company to which officers or employees of the Company may have access (either directly or through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such securities), the type and terms of the arrangements made for the custody of such securities and funds, the nature of securities and other investments to be held by the Company, the accounting procedures and controls of the Company, the nature and method of conducting the operations of the Company and the requirements of Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17g-1 thereunder, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, hereby determines that the amount, type, form, premium and coverage of the fidelity bond (the “Fidelity Bond”), covering the officers and employees of the Company and insuring the Company against loss from fraudulent or dishonest acts, including larceny and embezzlement, issued by Great American Insurance Group, having an aggregate coverage of $20 million, are fair and reasonable, and the Fidelity Bond be, and hereby is, approved by the Board;


FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Board, including all of the Independent Directors, have determined the portion of the premium to be paid by the Company be, and it hereby is, approved, taking all relevant factors into consideration including, but not limited to, the number of the other insured parties named as insureds, the nature of business activities of the other insured parties, the amount of the Fidelity Bond and the amount of the premium for such Fidelity Bond, the ratable allocation of the premium among the insureds, and the extent to which the share of the premium allocated to the Company is less than the premium the Company would have had to pay had such joint insured bond not been obtained;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered and directed to take all appropriate actions, with the advice of legal counsel to the Company, to provide and maintain the Fidelity Bond on behalf of the Company;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Chief Compliance Officer of the Company be and hereby is, designated as the party responsible for making, or directing legal counsel to make the necessary filings and giving the notices with respect to such bond required by paragraph (g) of Rule 17g-1;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered and directed to file a copy of the Fidelity Bond and any other related document or instrument with the SEC;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered and directed, in the name and on behalf of the Company, to make or cause to be made, and to execute and deliver, all such additional agreements, documents, instruments and certifications and to take all such steps, and to make all such payments, fees and remittances, as any one or more of such Authorized Officers may at any time or times deem necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the purpose and intent of the foregoing resolutions; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that any and all actions previously taken by the Company or any of its Directors, Authorized Officers or other employees in connection with the documents, and actions contemplated by the foregoing resolutions be, and they hereby are, ratified, confirmed, approved and adopted in all respects as and for the acts and deeds of the Company.


EXHIBIT C

AGREEMENT REGARDING THE ALLOCATION OF

FIDELITY BOND RECOVERIES

THIS AGREEMENT is made as of August 25, 2022, by and among MSD Investment Corp. and MSD Partners, L.P. on behalf of the named insureds (each, an “Insured,” and, together, the “Insureds”).

WHEREAS, MSD Investment Corp. is a closed-end management investment company which has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”);

WHEREAS, each of the Insureds is named as an insured party under a joint fidelity bond (the “Bond”); and

WHEREAS, MSD Partners, L.P. on behalf of the named insureds, desires to confirm the criteria by which recoveries under the Bond shall be allocated between the Insureds.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:

 

  1.

In the event that recovery is received under the Bond as a result of a loss sustained by more than one Insured, the following rules shall apply for determining the priorities for satisfaction of such claims under the Bond:

 

  a.

First, each Insured shall receive an equitable and proportionate share of the recovery, but at least equal to the amount it would have received had it provided and maintained a single insured bond with the minimum coverage required under Rule 17g-1(d)(1) under the 1940 Act; and

 

  b.

Second, the remaining amount of recovery, if any, shall then be applied to each claim of each Insured in proportion to the amount of the unreimbursed loss in excess of such minimums incurred by each Insured.

 

  2.

The obligations of an Insured under this Agreement are not binding upon any of the board members of an Insured or Insured shareholders individually, but are binding only with respect to the assets of that Insured.
