This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to Schedule 13D relates to the Class I Common Shares of Beneficial Interest (the “Class I Shares”) of Blackstone Private Credit Fund, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”), and amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed on November 2, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed on December 8, 2020 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment reflects, among other things, that GSO Capital Partners LP changed its name to Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On January 7, 2021, BDC Holdings purchased 997,940 Class I Shares directly from the Issuer at a purchase price of $25 per share. The acquisition of such Class I Shares was funded by capital contributions of the members of BDC Holdings.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) and (b) Calculations of the percentage of the shares of Class I Shares beneficially owned assumes that there were 29,809,301 Class I Shares outstanding as of January 7, 2021, based on information provided by Issuer.

The aggregate number and percentage of Class I Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and, for each Reporting Person, the number of securities as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on rows 7 through 11 and row 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

As of the date hereof, BDC Holdings directly owns all 1,000,000 issued and outstanding Class I Shares, representing 3.4% of the total amount of the outstanding Class I Shares.

Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP is the managing member of BDC Holdings. GSO Advisor Holdings L.L.C. is a special limited partner of Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP with investment and voting power over the securities beneficially owned by Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP. Blackstone Holdings I L.P. is the sole member of GSO Advisor Holdings L.L.C. Blackstone Holdings I/II GP L.L.C. is the general partner of Blackstone Holdings I L.P. The Blackstone Group Inc. is the sole member of Blackstone Holdings I/II GP L.L.C. Blackstone Group Management L.L.C. is the sole holder of the Class C common stock of The Blackstone Group Inc. Blackstone Group Management L.L.C. is wholly-owned by Blackstone’s senior managing directors and controlled by its founder, Stephen A. Schwarzman.

Each such Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own the Class I Shares beneficially owned by BDC Holdings, but neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any Reporting Person (other than BDC Holdings to the extent it directly holds Issuer securities reported herein) is the beneficial owner of the Class I Shares referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and each of the Reporting Persons (other than BDC Holdings to the extent it directly holds Issuer securities reported herein) expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of such Class I Shares.

Any beneficial ownership of shares of Class I Shares by any of the persons listed on Schedule I is set forth on Schedule I attached hereto.

(c) Other than as reported in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person named in Schedule I, has effected any transaction in the past 60 days in Class I Shares.

(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no person other than the Reporting Persons, or the partners, members, affiliates or shareholders of the Reporting Persons, has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons identified in this Item 5.

(e) As of January 7, 2021, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than five percent of the outstanding Class I Shares.
