 retain the “last out” portion of a first lien loan. In such cases, the “first out” portion of the first lien loan would receive priority with respect to payment over our “last out” position. In exchange for the higher risk of loss associated with such “last out” portion, we would earn a higher rate of interest than the “first out” position. We do not currently focus on investments in issuers that are distressed or in need of rescue financing. Subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act, we may invest in loans or other securities the proceeds of which may refinance or otherwise repay debt or securities of companies whose debt is owned by other Blackstone Credit & Insurance funds. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be composed of second lien, third lien, unsecured or subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest, subject to compliance with our 80% policy. We may purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the “over -the-counter” market or directly from our target companies as primary market, directly originated or syndicated investments. In connection with our debt investments, we may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. We have and may continue to also purchase or otherwise acquire minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity -relatedsecurities, such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for our common shares or other equity or the cash value of shares or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co -investmentwith a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm, or a finance company transaction (such as a joint venture). In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be composed of unsecured bonds, collateralized loan obligations, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our exposure to less senior portions of the capital structure or otherwise make opportunistic investments. 8 Our investment strategy is expected to capitalize on Blackstone Credit & Insurance’s scale and reputation in the market as an attractive financing partner to acquire our target investments at attractive pricing. We also expect to benefit from Blackstone’s reputation and ability to transact in scale with speed and certainty, and its long -standingand extensive relationships with private equity firms that require financing for their transactions
