The Materials contain confidential or other material non-public information, proprietary, trade secret and other commercially sensitive information, and by accessing information you agree (a) to keep such information strictly confidential and not disclose, disseminate, reproduce or redistribute the information in any format without the express written approval of the Adviser (b) not to trade or otherwise use the information other than to evaluate a prospective SCRED private offering (an “SCRED Offering”) or prospective SCRED SP Feeder private offering (an “SCRED SP Feeder Offering”), (c) upon request of the Adviser, to promptly return to the Adviser any Materials that you have downloaded or received and (d) that in the event you become legally required to disclose any of the Materials, you shall promptly notify the Adviser in writing of such requirement prior to any such disclosure and use reasonable best efforts to obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy (or, at the Adviser’s request, assist the Adviser, SCRED or SCRED SP Feeder in seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy) to prevent the disclosure of the Materials. In the event that a protective order or other remedy is not obtained pursuant to clause (d) above, you agree to use reasonable best efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the Materials disclosed. The Materials are being provided to you subject to the terms of this confidentiality agreement and other applicable provisions of the applicable agreements to which you are or become a party or any offering or other materials to which you may have access. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may disclose the Materials or portions thereof to those of your attorneys, agents, advisors who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating an investment in an SCRED Offering or an SCRED SP Feeder Offering for you (it being understood that, before disclosing the Materials or any portion thereof to any such attorneys, agents, advisors, you will inform them of the confidential nature of the Materials and instruct them to not disclose such Materials to any other person); provided, however, that you agree to be responsible for any improper disclosure of Materials or other breach of this confidentiality agreement by such representatives.

You agree that you will use the information contained herein and received from StepStone for the sole purpose of evaluating a possible investment in an SCRED Offering or an SCRED SP Feeder Offering, as applicable. Any decision to invest in an SCRED Offering or an SCRED SP Feeder Offering should be made after reviewing the relevant Materials, conducting such investigations as you deem necessary and consulting your own legal, accounting and tax advisors in order to make an independent determination of the suitability and consequences of an investment in such offering. You should not construe the contents of the Materials as legal, tax, investment or other advice. Prior to making an investment decision regarding an SCRED Offering or an SCRED SP Feeder Offering, SCRED, the SCRED SP Feeder or the Adviser will give you the opportunity to ask questions and receive additional information concerning the terms and conditions of such offering and other relevant matters. You should consult your own attorney, business advisor and tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning the Materials and an investment in any SCRED Offering or SCRED SP Feeder Offering.

No assurance can be given that any such offering’s investment objective will be achieved or that investors will receive a return of their investment.
