 companies (“BDCs”), mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), and may otherwise invest indirectly in securities consistent with our investment objectives.The amount that we will invest in other securities and instruments, which may include investments in debt and other securities issued by CLOs collateralized by non-U.S. loans or securities of other collective investment vehicles, will vary from time to time and, as such, may constitute a material part of our portfolio on any given date, all as based on the Adviser’s assessment of prevailing market conditions. The CLO securities in which we primarily seek to invest are rated below investment grade or, in the case of CLO equity securities, are unrated, and are considered speculative with respect to timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. Unrated and below investment grade securities are also sometimes referred to as “junk” securities. In addition, the CLO equity and junior debt securities in which we invest are highly leveraged (with CLO equity securities typically being leveraged ten times), which magnifies our risk of loss on such investments. LAFs are short- to medium-term facilities often provided by the bank that will serve as the placement agent or arranger on a CLO transaction. LAFs typically incur leverage between four and six times prior to a CLO’s pricing. These investment objectives and strategies are not fundamental policies of ours and may be changed by our board of directors without prior approval of our stockholders. See “Business.” In the primary CLO market ( i.e., acquiring securities at the inception of a CLO), we seek to invest in CLO securities that the Adviser believes have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns and to outperform other similar CLO securities issued within the respective vintage period. In the secondary CLO market ( i.e., acquiring existing CLO securities), we seek to invest in CLO securities that the Adviser believes have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns.

| ● | active involvement at the CLO structuring and formation stage; and |

| ● | taking, in many instances, significant stakes in CLO equity and junior debt tranches. |

We believe that the Adviser’s direct and often longstanding relationships with CLO collateral managers, its CLO structural expertise and
