45534534.1 A. Any valuation information and valuations received by Fund Services from independent pricing services being provided to the Fund by Fund Services pursuant hereto (collectively, the “Data”) is being licensed, not sold, to the Fund. The Fund has a limited license to use the Data only for purposes necessary to valuing the Fund’s assets and reporting to regulatory bodies and the Fund’s stockholders (the “License”). The Fund does not have any license nor right to use the Data for purposes beyond the intentions of this Agreement including, but not limited to, resale to other users or use to create any type of historical database. The License is non-transferable and not sub-licensable. The Fund’s right to use the Data cannot be passed to or shared with any other entity. The Fund acknowledges the proprietary rights that Fund Services and its suppliers have in the Data. B. THE FUND HEREBY ACCEPTS THE DATA AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE OR ANY OTHER MATTER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT RELIEVE Fund Services FROM ANY OBLIGATION UNDER SECTION 9 BELOW. C. Fund Services may stop supplying some or all Data to the Fund if Fund Services’ suppliers terminate any agreement to provide Data to Fund Services. Also, Fund Services may stop supplying some or all Data to the Fund if Fund Services reasonably believes that the Fund is using the Data in violation of the License, or breaching its duties of confidentiality provided for hereunder, or if any of Fund Services’ suppliers demand that the Data be withheld from the Fund. Fund Services will provide notice to the Fund of any termination of provision of Data as soon as reasonably possible. 4. Pricing of Securities A. For each valuation date, Fund Services shall obtain prices from a pricing source recommended by Fund Services and approved by the Fund and apply those prices to the portfolio positions of the Fund. For those securities where market quotations are not readily available, the Board of Directors shall provide, in good faith, the fair value for such securities and Fund Services shall apply those fair values to the relevant portfolio positions. . If the Fund desires to provide a price that varies from the price provided by the pricing source, the Fund shall promptly notify and supply Fund Services with the price of any such security on each valuation date. All pricing changes made by the Fund will be in writing and must specifically identify the securities to be changed by CUSIP, ISIN, LXID or other recognized industry data reference provider, name of security, new price or rate to be applied, and, if applicable, the time period for which the new price(s) is/are effective.

45534534.1 B. In the event that the Fund at any time receives Data containing evaluations, rather than market quotations, for certain securities or certain other data related to such securities, the following provisions will apply: (i) evaluated securities are typically complicated financial instruments. There are many methodologies (including computer-based analytical modeling and individual security evaluations) available to generate approximations of the market value of such securities, and there is significant professional disagreement about which method is best. No evaluation method, including those used by Fund Services and its suppliers, may consistently generate approximations that correspond to actual “traded” prices of the securities; (ii) methodologies used to provide the pricing portion of certain Data may rely on evaluations; however, the Fund acknowledges that there may be errors or defects in the software, databases, or methodologies generating the evaluations that may cause resultant evaluations to be inappropriate for use in certain applications; and (iii) the Fund assumes all responsibility for edit checking, external verification of evaluations, and ultimately the appropriateness of using Data containing evaluations, regardless of any efforts made by Fund Services and its suppliers in this respect. The provisions in this Section 4 shall not have any effect upon the services Fund Services is required to provide or the standard of care and liability Fund Services has set forth in Section 9 of this Agreement. 5. Changes in Accounting Procedures Any resolution passed by the Board of Directors that affects accounting practices and procedures under this Agreement shall be effective upon written receipt of notice and acceptance by Fund Services. 6. Changes in Equipment, Systems, Etc. Fund Services reserves the right to make changes from time to time, as it deems divisable, relating to its systems, programs, rules, operating schedules and equipment, so long as such changes do not adversely affect the services provided to the Fund under this Agreement or the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. 7. Compensation Fund Services shall be compensated for providing the services set forth in this Agreement in accordance with the fee schedule set forth on Exhibit A hereto (as amended from time to time by consent of both parties to this agreement). The Fund shall pay all fees and reimbursable miscellaneous expenses as are reasonably incurred by Fund Services in performing its duties hereunder and as are described in Exhibit A hereto. In the event any additional requirements are imposed upon Fund Services hereunder due to the adoption of any new or amended industry, regulatory or other applicable rules, the parties shall, acting in good faith, mutually agree upon any additional compensation in respect thereof. The Fund shall pay all such fees and reimbursable expenses within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of the billing notice, except for any fee or expense subject to a good faith

45534534.1 dispute. The Fund shall notify Fund Services in writing within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of each invoice if the Fund is disputing any amounts in good faith. The Fund shall settle such disputed amounts within thirty (30) calendar days of the day on which the parties agree to the amount to be paid. With the exception of any fee or expense the Fund is disputing in good faith as set forth above, unpaid invoices may, in Fund Services’s discretion, be assessed a finance charge of 11/2% per month after the due date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, amounts owed by the Fund to Fund Services shall only be paid out of assets and property of the Fund Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Exhibit A reflects all fees to be paid by and all expenses to be reimbursed by the Fund in favor of the Fund Services collectively, pursuant to (a) this Agreement, and (b) that a certain Administration Servicing Agreement to be entered into between the Fund and Fund Services on or about the date hereof (the “Administration Servicing Agreement”), and, for the avoidance of doubt, in all cases the amounts payable hereunder shall be without duplication of any amounts payable under the Administration Servicing Agreement. 8.

Fund Services acknowledges that it may come into possession of material nonpublic information with respect to the Fund, its portfolio companies or other privately or publicly held companies and confirms that it has in place effective procedures to prevent the use of such information in violation of applicable insider trading laws. Further, Fund Services will adhere to privacy policies adopted and as may be modified from time to time by UBSFS subject to oversight by the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, as required by Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, as may be modified from time to time (the “GLB Act”). In this regard, Fund Services shall have in place and maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards reasonably designed to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of, and to prevent unauthorized access to or use of, records and information relating to the Fund and its shareholders. In addition, Fund Services has implemented and will maintain an effective information security program reasonably designed to protect information relating to Shareholders (such information, “Personal Information”), which program includes sufficient administrative, technical and physical safeguards and written policies and procedures reasonably designed to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of such Personal Information; (b) protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such Personal Information, including identity theft; and (c) protect against unauthorized access to or use of such Personal Information that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to the Fund or any Shareholder (the “Information Security Program”). The Information Security Program complies and shall comply with reasonable information security practices prevailing within the registered investment company servicing industry. Upon written request from the Fund, Fund Services shall provide a written description of its Information Security Program. Fund Services shall promptly notify the Fund in writing of any breach of security, misuse or misappropriation of, or unauthorized access to, (in each case, whether actual or alleged) any Personal Information (any or all of the foregoing referred to individually and collectively for purposes of this provision as a “Security Breach”). Fund Services shall promptly investigate and remedy, and bear the cost of the measures (including notification to any affected parties), if any, to address any Security Breach. Fund Services shall bear the cost of the Security Breach only if Fund Services is determined to be responsible for such Security Breach. In addition to, and without limiting the foregoing, Fund Services will promptly cooperate with the Fund or any of their affiliates’ regulators at Fund Services’s expense (only if Fund Services is determined to be responsible for such Security Breach) to prevent, investigate, cease or mitigate any Security Breach, including but not limited to investigating, bringing claims or actions and giving information and testimony. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the obligations set forth in this Section 10 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

45534534.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fund Services will not share any nonpublic personal information concerning any of the Fund’s shareholders to any third party unless specifically directed by the Fund or allowed under one of the exceptions noted under the GLB Act. 11.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated by any party upon the breach of the other party of any material term of this Agreement if such breach is not cured within fifteen (15) days of notice of such breach to the breaching party. For avoidance of doubt, upon termination, the Fund will no longer be required to pay any fees hereunder other than the pro-rata portion of fees (including, if applicable, the pro rata portion of the annual minimum fee) due covering the portion of the annual period during which the Agreement was in effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any manner except by written agreement executed by the parties and authorized or approved by the Board of Directors. 12. Records Fund Services shall keep records relating to the services to be performed hereunder in the form and manner, and for such period, as it may deem advisable and is agreeable to the Fund, but not inconsistent with any requirements of applicable laws, rules and/or regulations of appropriate government authorities, in particular, Section 31 of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder. Fund Services agrees that all such records prepared or maintained by Fund Services relating to the services to be performed by Fund Services hereunder are the property of the Fund and will be preserved, maintained, and made available in accordance with such applicable sections and rules of the 1940 Act and will be promptly surrendered to the Fund on and in accordance with its request. Fund Services agrees to provide any records necessary to the Fund to comply with the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting adopted in accordance with the SOX Act.

Duties in the Event of Termination In the event that, in connection with termination, a successor to any of Fund Services’ duties or responsibilities hereunder is designated by the Administrator by written notice to Fund Services, Fund Services will promptly, upon such termination, except in the case of a material breach by Fund Services, in which case all expenses shall be borne by Fund Services, and at the expense of the Fund, transfer to such successor all relevant books, records, correspondence and other data established or maintained by Fund Services under this Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Fund (if such form differs from the form in which Fund Services has maintained the same, the Fund shall pay any reasonable and documented expenses incurred in connection with transferring the data to such form), and will cooperate in the transfer of such duties and responsibilities, including provision for assistance from Fund Services’ personnel in the establishment of books, records and other data by such successor. If no such successor is designated, then such books, records and other data shall be returned to the Fund. 15. No Agency Relationship Fund Services shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or authorized herein, have no authority to act for or represent the Fund in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Fund, or to conduct business in the name, or for the account, of the Fund. 16. Data Necessary to Perform Services The Fund or its agents shall furnish to Fund Services the data necessary to perform the services described herein at such times and in such form as mutually agreed upon. For the avoidance of doubt, Fund Services agrees that, to the extent required in order to carry out any of its obligations hereunder, Fund Services will coordinate with all other service providers of the Fund as may be requested and authorized by the Fund, including each custodian of the Fund, as appropriate. If Fund Services is also acting in another capacity for the Administrator or the Fund, nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve Fund Services of any of its obligations in such capacity. 17. Notification of Error The Fund will notify Fund Services of any material discrepancy between the records of Fund Services and the Fund, including, but not limited to, failing to account for a security position in the Fund’s portfolio, by the later of: within five (5) business days after receipt of any reports rendered by Fund Services to the Fund within five (5) business days after discovery of any error or omission not covered in the balancing or control procedure, or within five (5) business days of receiving notice from any shareholder.

Fund Services’ services hereunder shall not relieve the Fund of its responsibilities for assuring such compliance or the Board of Directors’ oversight responsibility with respect thereto. The foregoing shall not affect Fund Services’s responsibilities for compliance and related matters delegated to Fund Services by the Fund as expressly provided herein and, as such, Fund Services shall perform all services hereunder in accordance with all applicable laws. Fund Services shall comply with changes to all regulatory requirements affecting its services hereunder to the Fund and shall implement any necessary modifications to the services prior to the deadline imposed, or extensions authorized by, the regulatory or other governmental body having jurisdiction for such regulatory requirements. 19.
