 are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company considers its principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in the determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below: Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at those market quotations. To validate market quotations, the Adviser utilizes a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of the quotations. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or for which market quotations are deemed not reflective of the fair value, the Adviser, as the Board’s valuation designee, determines the fair value of the investments in good faith, based on, among other things, the fair valuation recommendations from investment professionals, the input of the Company’s Audit Committee and independent third-party valuation firms.The SEC has adopted Rule 2a-5 (the “Rule”) under the 1940 Act. The Rule establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Rule, the Board has designated the Adviser as valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to perform certain fair value functions, including performing fair value determinations. As required by the Rule, the Valuation Designee provides periodic fair valuation reporting and notifications on behalf of the Company to the Board to facilitate the Board’s oversight duties.
