amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and reasonable counsel fees reasonably incurred

his having acted in any such capacity, except with respect to any matter as to which he shall not have acted in good faith in
the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the Trust or, in the case of any criminal proceeding, as to
which he shall have had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful, provided, however, that no indemnitee shall
be indemnified hereunder against any liability to any person or any expense of such indemnitee arising by reason of (i)&nbsp;willful
misconduct, (ii)&nbsp;bad faith, (iii)&nbsp;gross negligence, or (iv)&nbsp;reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct
of his position (the conduct referred to in such clauses (i)&nbsp;through (iv)&nbsp;being sometimes referred to herein as &ldquo;<U>disabling
conduct</U>&rdquo;).&nbsp; Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any action, suit or other proceeding voluntarily prosecuted
by any indemnitee as plaintiff, indemnification shall be mandatory only if the prosecution of such action, suit or other proceeding
by such indemnitee (1)&nbsp;was authorized by a majority of the Trustees or (2)&nbsp;was instituted by the indemnitee to enforce
his or her rights to indemnification hereunder in a case in which the indemnitee is found to be entitled to such indemnification.&nbsp;
The rights to indemnification set forth in this Declaration shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Trustee or officer
of the Trust and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives.&nbsp; No amendment

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"><B>REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM </B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Blackstone Senior Floating
Rate Term Fund</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of Blackstone
Senior Floating Rate Term Fund (the &ldquo;Fund&rdquo;), as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, in accordance with the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), we considered the Fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial
reporting, including controls over safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing
our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining
effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required
to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. A fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed
to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial reporting includes
those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect
the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the fund; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures
of the fund are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the fund; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a fund&rsquo;s assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when the
design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions,
to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the fund&rsquo;s annual
or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">Our consideration of the Fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial reporting
was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal control that
might be material weaknesses under standards established by the PCAOB. However, we noted no deficiencies in the Fund&rsquo;s internal
control over financial reporting and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material
weakness, as defined above, as of December 31, 2021.</P>
