It is agreed that:

1. “Employee” as used in the attached bond shall include any natural person who is a director or trustee of the Insured while such director or trustee is engaged in handling funds or other property of any Employee Welfare or Pension Benefit Plan owned, controlled or operated by the Insured or any natural person who is a trustee, manager, officer or employee of any such Plan.

2. If the bond, in accordance with the agreements, limitations and conditions thereof, covers loss sustained by two or more Employee Welfare or Pension Benefit Plans or sustained by any such Plan in addition to loss sustained by an Insured other than such Plan, it is the obligation of the Insured or the Plan Administrator(s) of such Plans under Regulations published by the Secretary of Labor implementing Section 13 of the Welfare and Pension Plans Disclosure Act of 1958 to obtain under one or more bonds issued by one or more Insurers an amount of coverage for each such Plan at least equal to that which would be required if such Plans were bonded separately.

3. In compliance with the foregoing, payment by the Company in accordance with the agreements, limitations and conditions of the bond shall be held by the Insured, or, if more than one, by the Insured first named, for the use and benefit of any Employee Welfare or Pension Benefit Plan sustaining loss so covered and to the extent that such payment is in excess of the amount of coverage required by such Regulations to be carried by said Plan sustaining such loss, such excess shall be held for the use and benefit of any other such Plan also covered in the event that such other Plan discovers that it has sustained loss covered thereunder.

4. If money or other property of two or more Employee Welfare or Pension Benefit Plans covered under the bond is commingled, recovery for loss of such money or other property through fraudulent or dishonest acts of Employees shall be shared by such Plans on a pro rata basis in accordance with the amount for which each such Plan is required to carry bonding coverage in accordance with the applicable provisions of said Regulations.

to cause the Insured to sustain such loss, or

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 make and which results in a financial benefit for the Employee.

(2) the physical loss of or damage to Property, Electronic Data or Electronic Data Processing Media as a

direct result of acts committed by an Employee (including malicious acts of an Employee) whether committed alone or in collusion with others.

The term “Electronic Data” as used in this INSURING AGREEMENT shall be deemed to mean facts or information converted to a form usable in a computer system and which is stored on Electronic Data Processing Media for use by computer programs.

The term “Electronic Data Media” as used in this INSURING AGREEMENT shall be deemed to mean punched cards, magnetic tapes, punched tapes or magnetic discs or other bulk media on which data are recorded.

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.

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

(1)

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

JOINT ALLOCATION AGREEMENT

THIS JOINT ALLOCATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), effective as of the 20^th day of March, 2017, by and between TCG BDC, Inc. (“TCG BDC”) and NF Investment Corp. (“NF Investment Corp.”), each affiliates and business development companies that have elected or intend to elect to be regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and any subsidiaries thereof (each an “Insured” and together, the “Insureds”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to the requirements of Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17g-1 adopted thereunder (“Rule 17g-1”), which apply to a business development company pursuant to Section 59 of the 1940 Act, each Insured is required to maintain a bond issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company, authorized to do business in the place where the bond is issued, against larceny and embezzlement, covering certain officers and employees of the Insureds; and

WHEREAS, the Insureds propose entering into a joint bond with Berkley Regional Insurance Company, in accordance with Rule 17g-1 (such joint bond as proposed to be executed and as it may be amended from time to time, hereinafter, the “Bond”); and

WHEREAS, the Insureds, in order to be covered jointly under the Bond, are required by Rule 17g-1 to be parties to an agreement that establishes the criteria by which the premiums and any recoveries under the Bond shall be allocated among them.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:

1. Amount of Coverage Maintained. The amount of fidelity coverage under the Bond shall at all times be at least equal to the sum of: (a) the total amount of coverage the Insured would have been required to provide and maintain individually pursuant to the schedule set forth in paragraph (d)(1) of Rule 17g-1 had the other not been a named insured under the Bond, plus (b) the amount of each bond which each other named Insured would have been required to provide and maintain pursuant to federal statutes or regulations had such Insured not been named as an insured under the Bond (such amounts, respectively, the “minimum coverage requirement” for each Insured). The amount of fidelity coverage under the Bond shall be approved at least annually by the Board of Directors of each Insured, including a majority of those directors who are not “interested persons” of the Insureds.

2. Allocation of Recovery. In the event an actual pecuniary loss is suffered by the Insureds under circumstances covered by the Bond, any recovery under the Bond shall be allocated among such Insureds as follows:

a. If the total amount of coverage provided under the Bond exceeds or is equal to the amount of the combined total loss suffered by the Insureds suffering the loss, then each such Insured shall be entitled to recover the amount of its actual loss.

b. If the amount of loss suffered by each Insured suffering loss exceeds its minimum coverage requirement as set forth in Section 1 hereof and the amount of such Insureds’ combined actual losses exceeds the total amount of coverage under the Bond, then each such Insured shall be entitled to recover (i) its minimum coverage requirement, and (ii) to the extent there exists any excess coverage, the proportion of such excess coverage that its minimum coverage requirement bears to the amount of the combined minimum coverage requirements of the Insureds suffering actual loss; provided, however, that if the actual loss of any such Insureds is less than the sum of (i) and (ii) above, then such difference shall be recoverable by the other Insured in proportion to its minimum coverage requirements.

---

c. If (i) the amount of actual loss suffered by any Insured is less than or equal to its minimum coverage requirement, (ii) the amount of actual loss of the other Insured exceeds its minimum coverage requirements, and (iii) the amount of the combined actual losses of the Insureds exceeds the total amount of coverage provided under the Bond, then any Insured that has suffered an amount of actual loss less than or equal to its minimum coverage requirement shall be entitled to recover its actual loss. The other Insured that has suffered actual loss shall be entitled to recover the remainder of the coverage under the Bond.

d. Notwithstanding anything to the foregoing, no Insured shall receive any recovery until the each Insured has at least received at least the amount it would have received had it provided and maintained a single insured bond with each Insured’s minimum coverage requirements.

3. Allocation of Premiums. The Insureds shall divide the initial premium and any additional premiums which may become due under the Bond among them based upon their relative net assets at the time of payment of the premium involved; provided that the premium to be paid by the Insureds shall be that approved by each Insured’s Board of Directors in accordance with Rule 17g-1(e).

4. Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended in any manner except by written agreement executed by the parties hereto.

5. Filing with the Commission. A copy of this Agreement, and any amendment thereto, shall be filed with the SEC within 10 days after receipt by the Insureds of an executed copy of the Bond.

6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and the provisions thereof interpreted under and in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Insureds have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first written above.
