Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 3, 2023, Blackstone Secured Lending Fund (the "Company") entered into (i) an equity distribution agreement by and among the Company, Blackstone Credit BDC Advisors LLC (the "Advisor"), Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP (the "Administrator") and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc. ("SMBC"), (ii) an equity distribution agreement by and among the Company, the Advisor, the Administrator and Truist Securities, Inc. ("Truist") and (iii) an equity distribution agreement by and among the Company, the Advisor, the Administrator and RBC Capital Markets, LLC ("RBC," and together with SMBC and Truist, the "Sales Agents"). The equity distribution agreements with the Sales Agents described in the preceding sentence are collectively referred to herein as the "Equity Distribution Agreements."

The Equity Distribution Agreements provide that the Company may from time to time issue and sell shares of its common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share ("Shares"), having an aggregate offering price of up to $200,000,000, through the Sales Agents, or to them as principal for their own respective accounts. Any issuance and sale of the Shares will be made pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated March 3, 2023 (the "Prospectus Supplement") as may be supplemented from time to time, and the accompanying prospectus, dated July 26, 2022 (together with the Prospectus Supplement, including any documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, the "Prospectus"), which constitute a part of the Company's effective shelf registration statement on Form N-2ASR (File No. 333-266323) that was filed with the SEC on July 26, 2022 (the "Registration Statement"). Sales of the Shares, if any, may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be an "at-the-market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including sales made directly on or through the New York Stock Exchange or a similar securities exchange, sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange, at market prices related to prevailing market prices or negotiated prices, sales made through any other existing trading market or electronic communications network, or by any other method permitted by law, including but not limited to privately negotiated transactions, which may include block trades, as the Company and the Sales Agents may agree. The Sales Agents will receive a commission from the Company up to 1% of the gross sales price of any Shares sold through the Sales Agents under the Equity Distribution Agreements. The offering price per share of Shares sold in the offering less the sales agent commissions or discounts payable by the Company will not be less than the NAV per share of the Company's Shares at the time the Company sells Shares pursuant to the offering.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this "at-the-market offering" for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, investing in accordance with the Company's investment objectives and strategies described in the Prospectus and repaying indebtedness (which will be subject to reborrowing).

Although the Company has filed the Prospectus Supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company has no obligation to sell any Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreements, and may at any time suspend the offering of Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreements. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Shares and determinations by the Company of its need for, and the appropriate sources of, additional capital.

The Equity Distribution Agreements contain customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, conditions to closing, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The foregoing description is only a summary of the material provisions of the Equity Distribution Agreements and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Equity Distribution Agreements, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

A copy of the opinion of Richard, Layton & Finger, P.A. relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to the Prospectus is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
