Organization

Sixth Street Lending Partners (the “Company”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on April 5, 2022 (“Inception”). The Company was formed primarily to lend to, and selectively invest in, upper middle-market companies in the United States. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act. In addition, for tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is managed by Sixth Street Lending Partners Advisers, LLC (the “Adviser”). On May 12, 2022, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Sixth Street LP Holding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. On May 12, 2022, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, SSLP Lending, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

The Company is conducting a private offering (the “Private Offering”) of its Common Shares of beneficial interest (the “Common Shares”) to accredited investors, as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. Common Shares will be offered for subscription continuously throughout an initial closing period and may be offered from time to time thereafter. Each investor in the Private Offering will make a capital commitment (a “Capital Commitment”) to purchase Common Shares of the Company pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with the Company. Investors will be required to fund drawdowns to purchase the Company’s Common Shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitments on an as-needed basis each time the Company delivers a notice to the investors.

The Company completed its initial closing of Capital Commitments and commenced its loan origination and investment activities on August 31, 2022 (“Commencement of Operations”), the date of receipt of the initial drawdown from investors in the Private Offering.
