Section 1.1. Authorization of Notes. The Company will authorize the issue and sale of $145,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.00% Series 2021A Senior Notes due November 4, 2026 (as may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time pursuant to Section 17 and including any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13, the “Series 2021A Notes”). The Series 2021A Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Schedule 1. Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule A and, for purposes of this Agreement, the rules of construction set forth in Section 22.4 shall govern.

The Series 2021A Notes, together with each Series of Additional Notes which may from time to time be issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2, are collectively referred to as the “Notes” (such term shall also include any such notes as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time pursuant to Section 17 and including any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13).

Section 1.2. Changes in Interest Rate. (a) If at any time a Below Investment Grade Event occurs, then:

(i) as of the date of the occurrence of the Below Investment Grade Event to and until the date on which such Below Investment Grade Event is no longer continuing (as evidenced by the receipt and delivery to the holders of the Notes of evidence of any Rating necessary to cure such Below Investment Grade Event), the Notes shall bear interest at the applicable Adjusted Interest Rate; and

(ii) the Company shall promptly, and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after knowledge that a Below Investment Grade Event has occurred, notify the holders of the Notes in writing, sent in the manner provided in Section 18, that a Below Investment Grade Event has occurred, which written notice shall be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders to such effect and confirming the effective date of the Below Investment Grade Event and that the Adjusted Interest Rate will be payable in respect of the Notes in consequence thereof.

(b) Each holder of a Note shall, at the Company’s expense, use reasonable efforts to cooperate with any reasonable request made by the Company in connection with any rating appeal or application.

(c) The fees and expenses of any NRSRO and all other costs incurred in connection with obtaining, affirming or appealing a Rating pursuant to this Section 1.2 shall be borne solely by the Company.

(d) As used herein, “Adjusted Interest Rate” means the interest rate on the Notes shall be the rate per annum which is 1.00% above the stated rate of the Notes.

(e) As used herein, a “Below Investment Grade Event” shall occur if

(i) at any time the Company has obtained a Rating of the Notes from only one NRSRO, the then most recent Rating from such NRSRO that is in full force and effect (not having been withdrawn) is less than Investment Grade; or

(ii) at any time the Company has obtained a Rating of the Notes from two NRSROs, the then lower of the most recent Ratings from the NRSROs that are in full force and effect (not having been withdrawn) is less than Investment Grade; or

(iii) at any time the Company has obtained a Rating of the Notes from three or more NRSROs, the then second lowest of the most recent Ratings from the NRSROs that is in full force and effect (not having been withdrawn) is less than Investment Grade (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, if two or more of the most recent Ratings are equal or equivalent as the lowest such Rating, then one of such equal or equivalent Ratings will be deemed to be the second lowest Rating for purposes of such determination); or

(iv) at any time the Company shall have failed to receive and deliver to the holders of the Notes a Rating of the Notes from at least one NRSRO as required pursuant to Section 9.10.

(g) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Notes shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

Section 5.1. Organization; Power and Authority. The Company is a limited partnership (or after clause (a) of the definition of BDC Conversion, a statutory trust) duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, and is duly qualified as a foreign limited partnership (or after clause (a) of the definition of BDC Conversion, a statutory trust) and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has the limited partnership power (or after clause (a) of the definition of BDC Conversion, trust power) and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

Section 5.2. Authorization, Etc.. This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

-8-

Section 5.3. Disclosure. (a) The Company, through its agent, Goldman Sachs & Co., has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of the documents, certificates or other writings identified in Schedule 5.3 (the “Disclosure Materials”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Disclosure Materials fairly describe, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. This Agreement, Disclosure Materials, the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company (other than financial projections, pro forma financial information, and other forward-looking information referenced in Section 5.3(b)) prior to October 21, 2021 in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3 (this Agreement, the Disclosure Materials, and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser (other than financial projections, pro forma financial information, and other forward-looking information referenced in Section 5.3(b)) being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact, as of their respective dates, or omit to state any material fact, as of their respective dates, necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2020, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary, taken as a whole, except changes that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents.

Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least ten (10) Business Days. If the holders of more than 20% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least five (5) Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Prepayment Settlement Amount shall be owed in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 8.5(b) unless offered by the Company in its sole discretion.

Section 8.6. Make-Whole Amount; Prepayment Settlement Amount.

The term “Prepayment Settlement Amount” means:

(a) for any determination prior to July 1, 2023 (or such later date if the term of the Company is extended under its Constituent Documents and the holders of the Notes have received a notice of such extension no later than June 1, 2023), if an IPO has not occurred, the Make-Whole Amount;

(b) for any determination on or after July 1, 2023 (or such later date if the term of the Company is extended under its Constituent Documents and the holders of the Notes have received a notice of such extension no later than June 1, 2023), if an IPO has not occurred, an amount equal to the “Prepayment Settlement Amount”, as follows:

-24-

Prepaid during the period	Prepayment Settlement Amount
On or before November 4, 2025	2% of the principal amount to be prepaid
After November 4, 2025 but on or before August 4, 2026	1% of the principal amount to be prepaid
After August 4, 2026	Zero

(c) for any determination after an IPO has occurred, an amount equal to the “Prepayment Settlement Amount”, as follows:

Prepaid during the period	Prepayment Settlement Amount
On or before August 4, 2026	Make-Whole Amount
After August 4, 2026	Zero

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (a) 0.50% plus (b) the yield to maturity implied by the “Ask Yield(s)” reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (i) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating

-25-

linearly between the “Ask Yields” Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.    

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) 0.50% plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second (2nd) Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

-26-

Section 8.7. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) except as set forth in clause (y), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; and (y) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or Prepayment Settlement Amount on any Note (including principal due on the Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.    

Section 8.8. Change in Control.

(a) Notice of Change in Control. The Company will, within ten (10) Business Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control, give written notice of such Change in Control to each holder of Notes.

(d) Prepayment. Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes, together with interest on such Notes accrued to, but excluding, the date of prepayment, but without Make-Whole Amount, Prepayment Settlement Amount or other premium.

(d) Additionally, notwithstanding the foregoing, no covenant, definition or default expressly set forth in this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement (or incorporated into this Agreement by an amendment or modification to this Agreement other than pursuant to this Section 10.9) shall be deemed to be amended to be less restrictive than as set forth in this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement or deleted in any respect by virtue of the provisions of this Section 10.9.

Re:  Silver Point Specialty Credit Fund, L.P.	Milan
	File No. 053360-0018

To the addressees set forth above:

We have acted as special counsel to Silver Point Specialty Credit Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Company”), in connection with that certain Master Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2021 (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, as the issuer, and each of the purchasers listed on Schedule A hereto (each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) and the other Opinion Documents (as defined below).

This letter is furnished pursuant to Section 4.4(a) of the Note Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms defined in the Note Purchase Agreement, used herein and not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings given them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter, except where a specified fact confirmation procedure is stated to have been performed (in which case we have with your consent performed the stated procedure). We have examined, among other things, the following:

(a) the Note Purchase Agreement

(b) the Company’s 4.00% Series 2021A Senior Notes due November 4, 2026 issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement (the “Notes”);

(c) the certificate of limited partnership of the Company (the “Certificate of Limited Partnership”), as certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on October 27, 2021, and the limited partnership agreement of the Company, which, with your consent, we have assumed is (i) a valid and binding agreement of the parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms, (ii) in full force and effect, and (iii) the entire agreement of the parties pertaining to the subject matter thereof (the “LP Agreement” and together with the Certificate of Limited Partnership, the “Governing Documents”), and certain resolutions of the general partner of the Company;

November 4, 2021

Page 2

(d) an executed certificate of the Company, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Company Certificate”); and

(e) an executed certificate of Goldman, Sachs & Co., as placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) (such certificate, the “Placement Agent Representation Letter”).

The documents described in subsections (a) and (b) above are referred to herein collectively as the “Opinion Documents.”

Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, as to factual matters we have, with your consent, relied upon the foregoing, and upon oral and written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others, including the representations and warranties of the Company in the Opinion Documents. We have not independently verified such factual matters.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including any endorsements, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.

We are opining herein as to the effect on the subject transaction only of the federal laws of the United States, the internal laws of the State of New York, and, in numbered paragraphs 1, 2 and 4 of this letter, the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (the “DRULPA”). We express no opinion with respect to the applicability to the opinions expressed herein, or the effect thereon, of the law of any other jurisdiction, or in the case of Delaware, contract law or any other law, or as to any matters of municipal law or the law of any local agencies within any state.

Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, our opinions herein are based upon our consideration of only those statutes, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally applicable to issuers in private placement transactions. We express no opinion as to any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the subject transactions because of the legal or regulatory status of any parties to the Opinion Documents or the legal or regulatory status of any of their affiliates, including, without limitation, the Investment Company Act of 1940 (other than our opinion in numbered paragraph 6 of this letter).

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, as of the date hereof:

1. With your consent, based solely on certificates from public officials, we confirm that the Company (i) is a limited partnership under the DRULPA of the State of Delaware and (ii) is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has the limited partnership power and authority to enter into the Opinion Documents to which it is a party and perform its obligations thereunder.

November 4, 2021

Page 3

2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Opinion Documents by the Company have been duly authorized by all necessary limited partnership action of the Company and the Opinion Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

3. Each of the Opinion Documents constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

4. The execution and delivery of the Opinion Documents by the Company, and the issuance of the Notes pursuant to and the performance of the obligations of the Company under the Opinion Documents do not on the date hereof:

i. solely with respect to the Company, violate the provisions of the Governing Documents;

ii. violate any federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company (including, without limitation, Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, assuming the Company complies with the provisions of the Opinion Documents relating to the use of proceeds) or violate the DRULPA; or

iii. require any consents, approvals, or authorizations to be obtained by the Company from, or any registrations, declarations or filings to be made by the Company with, any governmental authority under any federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or the DRULPA.

5. No registration of the Notes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no qualification of the Note Purchase Agreement under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, are required for the purchase of the Notes by the Purchasers in the manner contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement. We express no opinion, however, as to when or under what circumstances any Notes may be reoffered or resold.

6. Assuming the Purchasers, and any assignee(s) thereof, are “qualified purchasers” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in the manner and as contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company is not required to be registered as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

November 4, 2021

Our opinions are subject to:

(a) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, preference, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights or remedies of creditors;

(b) the effects of general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law (including the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief), concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, fair dealing and the discretion of the court before which a proceeding is brought;

(c) the invalidity under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions for the indemnification or exculpation of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification, exculpation or contribution is contrary to public policy; and

(d) we express no opinion with respect to (i) consents to, or restrictions upon, governing law (except for the validity under the laws of the State of New York, but subject to mandatory choice of law rules and constitutional limitations, of provisions in the Note Purchase Agreement which expressly choose New York as the governing law for the Note Purchase Agreement), jurisdiction, venue, service of process, arbitration, remedies or judicial relief; (ii) advance waivers of claims, defenses, rights granted by law, or notice, opportunity for hearing, evidentiary requirements, statutes of limitation, trial by jury or at law, or other procedural rights; (iii) waivers of broadly or vaguely stated rights; (iv) disclaimers or limitations of duties; (v) covenants not to compete; (vi) provisions for exclusivity, election or cumulation of rights or remedies; (vii) provisions authorizing or validating conclusive or discretionary determinations; (viii) grants of setoff rights; (ix) provisions to the effect that a guarantor is liable as a primary obligor, and not as a surety and provisions purporting to waive modifications of any guaranteed obligation to the extent such modification constitutes a novation; (x) provisions for the payment of attorneys’ fees where such payment is contrary to law or public policy; (xi) proxies, powers and trusts; (xii) provisions prohibiting, restricting, or requiring consent to assignment or transfer of any agreement, right or property; (xiii) provisions for liquidated damages, default interest, late charges, monetary penalties, prepayment or make-whole premiums or other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a penalty; (xiv) provisions permitting, upon acceleration of any indebtedness, collection of that portion of the stated principal amount thereof which might be determined to constitute unearned interest thereon; (xv) any provision of the Opinion Documents that refers to, incorporates or is based upon the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York or the federal laws of the United States; and (xvi) the severability, if invalid, of provisions to the foregoing effect.

November 4, 2021

We express no opinion or confirmation as to federal securities laws (except as expressly set forth in numbered paragraphs 5 and 6 of this letter), state securities laws, tax laws, antitrust or trade regulation laws, insolvency or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, compliance with fiduciary duty requirements, labor, pension or employee benefit laws, usury laws, environmental laws, laws and regulations relating to commodities trading, futures and swaps, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority rules, National Futures Association rules, the rules of any stock exchange, clearing organization, designated contract market or other regulated entity for trading, processing, clearing or reporting transactions in securities, commodities, futures or swaps, export control, foreign assets control, sanctions, anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism laws and regulations, or laws governing foreign investments in the United States (without limiting other laws, regulations or rules excluded by customary practice).

With your consent, except to the extent we have expressly opined as to such matters with respect to the Company herein, we have assumed that (a) the Opinion Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto, (b) the Opinion Documents constitute legally valid and binding obligations of the parties thereto, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their respective terms, and (c) the status of the Opinion Documents as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not affected by any (i) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (ii) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders, or (iii) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities.

This letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, assigned to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or entity for any purpose, without our prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in our discretion.

SUPPLEMENTAL REPRESENTATIONS

[UPDATED REPRESENTATIONS BASED ON NPA TO BE INCLUDED AS NECESSARY FOLLOWING BDC CONVERSION]

The Company represents and warrants to each Additional Purchaser that except as hereinafter set forth in this Exhibit A, each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Master Note Purchase Agreement (other than representations and warranties that apply solely to a specific earlier date which shall be true as of such earlier date and other than the Section references hereinafter set forth) is true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof with respect to the Series         Notes with the same force and effect as if each reference to “the Notes” set forth therein was modified to refer to the “Series         Notes” and each reference to “this Agreement” therein was modified to refer to the Master Note Purchase Agreement as supplemented by the             Supplement. The Section references hereinafter set forth correspond to the similar sections of the Master Note Purchase Agreement which are supplemented hereby:

Section 5.3. Disclosure. This Agreement, the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company (other than financial projections, pro forma financial information, and other forward-looking information referenced in Section 5.3) prior to [TO BE UPDATED] in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3 (this Agreement and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser (other than financial projections, pro forma financial information, and other forward-looking information referenced in Section 5.3) being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact, as of their respective dates, or omit to state any material fact, as of their respective dates, necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since [TO BE UPDATED], there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary, taken as a whole, except changes that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents.

Section 5.4.    Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates. (a) Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists as of the date of the Series         Closing of (i) the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary (other than any Financing Subsidiary or tax blocker or investment held by such Financing Subsidiary or tax blocker)and whether such Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Guarantor, and (ii) the Company’s directors and executive officers.

Section 5.5. Financial Statements; Material Liabilities. The Company has delivered to each Additional Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries (which Subsidiaries may be consolidated on the financial statements of the Company) listed on Schedule 5.5. All of such financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes, but excluding all financial projections, pro forma financial information and other forward-looking information) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments and lack of footnotes). The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that are not disclosed in the Disclosure Documents.

Section 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes or any substantially similar debt Securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy the Notes or any substantially similar debt Securities from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Additional Purchasers and not more than                 other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any Securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

Section 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Notes hereunder for the general corporate purposes of the Company and its Subsidiaries and as otherwise set forth in the section of the                 entitled “______ ”. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any Securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than         % of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than         % of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.

Section 5.15. Existing Indebtedness; Future Liens. (a) Except as described therein, Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of         (including descriptions of the obligors and obligees, principal amounts outstanding, any collateral therefor and any Guarantee thereof), since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries. As of                 , neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of the Company, no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.
