Manager, the resigning or removed Collateral Manager may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the<br />

appointment of a successor Collateral Manager without the approval of the holders of the Notes.<br />

The Collateral Manager will not be permitted to delegate or assign its rights or responsibilities under the<br />

Collateral Management Agreement without the consent of the Issuer and a Majority of the Preferred Shares<br />

(excluding any Preferred Shares owned by the Collateral Manager or any affiliate of the Collateral Manager);<br />

provided that any successor to the Collateral Manager by way of merger, conversion, consolidation or acquisition of<br />

all or substantially all of the Collateral Manager's portfolio management business will be the successor Collateral<br />

Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement automatically and immediately upon such merger,<br />

conversion, consolidation or acquisition and the Collateral Manager may assign its rights and delegate its<br />

responsibilities under the Collateral Management Agreement to an Affiliate of the Collateral Manager without the<br />

consent of the Issuer, or any holder of Notes or Preferred Shares, provided, however, that such Affiliate has<br />

demonstrated the ability to professionally and competently perform the duties imposed under the Collateral<br />

Management Agreement with a substantially similar level of expertise as the initial Collateral Manager. A change<br />

of control (within the meaning of the Advisers Act) with respect to the Collateral Manager will not constitute an<br />

assignment or delegation for the foregoing purpose.<br />

No provision of the Collateral Management Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated<br />

orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the Issuer and the Collateral Manager; provided that any<br />

amendment that affects the rights and obligations of a Collateral Manager that has resigned or been removed will<br />

also require the written consent of such Collateral Manager; provided, further, that neither the Issuer nor the<br />

Collateral Manager will enter into any agreement amending, modifying or terminating the Collateral Management<br />

Agreement (other than in respect of an amendment or modification of the type that may be made to the Indenture<br />

without the consent of any holder of Notes), without notifying each Rating Agency thereof and (a) until each Rating<br />

Agency has confirmed that it will not reduce or withdraw the rating assigned by it on the Closing Date to any Class<br />

of Notes with respect thereto and (b) unless such amendment or modification would not adversely affect the rights<br />

of the holders of the Preferred Shares, the consent of a Majority of the Preferred Shares.<br />

The duties and obligations of the Collateral Manager are solely those of <strong>Octagon</strong> and will not be guaranteed by<br />

any entity that owns or is otherwise affiliated with <strong>Octagon</strong>. The Notes do not represent an interest in or obligations<br />

of, and are not insured or guaranteed by <strong>Octagon</strong> or any entity that owns or is otherwise affiliated with <strong>Octagon</strong>.<br />

Affiliate Transactions<br />

The Collateral Management Agreement will provide that, except as provided in clauses (a) through (e) below<br />

and by applicable law, the Collateral Manager will not cause the Issuer (i) in the event that, and for so long as, the<br />

Collateral Manager is a <strong>JPMorgan</strong> Chase affiliate, to engage in transactions with <strong>JPMorgan</strong> Chase affiliates with<br />

respect to securities (including Collateral Debt Obligations) or (ii) to purchase securities (including Collateral Debt<br />

Obligations) from or sell securities (including Collateral Debt Obligations) to any account or portfolio for which the<br />

Collateral Manager or any of its affiliates serves as investment advisor or any other affiliate of the Collateral<br />

Manager, without, in each case, the prior approval of the Issuer, but subject to certain terms and conditions set forth<br />

in the Collateral Management Agreement, acting for this purpose at the direction or with the approval of a Majority<br />

of the Preferred Shares (excluding Preferred Shares owned by the Collateral Manager or any affiliate of the<br />

Collateral Manager) and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent<br />

permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Manager may cause the Issuer to:<br />

(a) purchase Collateral Debt Obligations or Eligible <strong>Investment</strong>s from <strong>JPMorgan</strong> Chase affiliates (other than<br />

Specified <strong>Octagon</strong> Affiliates) in connection with the primary syndication or underwriting of such Collateral Debt<br />

Obligations, provided that, in each case, (i) such purchase is made on the same terms as are, to the knowledge of the<br />

Collateral Manager, offered to and contemporaneously purchased at least 51% in principal amount by third parties in<br />

connection with the syndication or underwriting of such Collateral Debt Obligations or Eligible <strong>Investment</strong>s and<br />

(ii) after giving effect to such purchase, the Issuer may not own more than 33-1/3% in principal amount of such<br />

Collateral Debt Obligations or Eligible <strong>Investment</strong>s;<br />

(b) acquire interests in Collateral Debt Obligations or Eligible <strong>Investment</strong>s from <strong>JPMorgan</strong> Chase affiliates<br />

(other than Specified <strong>Octagon</strong> Affiliates) in secondary market transactions, in each case for a price no greater than<br />
