 from participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, the SEC. We consider the Adviser and its affiliates, including Crescent, to be our affiliates for such purposes. In addition, any person that is an affiliate of ours for purposes of the 1940 Act generally is prohibited from participating in certain transactions such as co-investing with, or buying or selling any security from or to us, absent the prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, of the SEC. We consider the Adviser and its affiliates, including Crescent, to be our affiliates for such purposes. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain “joint” transactions with certain of our affiliates, which could include investments in the same portfolio company, without prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, of the SEC. We are prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to any person who owns more than 25% of our voting securities or certain of that person’s affiliates, or entering into prohibited joint transactions with such persons, absent the prior approval of the SEC. If we are prohibited by applicable law from investing alongside Crescent’s investment funds, accounts and investment vehicles with respect to an investment opportunity, we may not be able to participate in such investment opportunity.

In situations where co-investment with investment funds, accounts and investment vehicles managed by Crescent is not permitted or appropriate, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in different securities of the same issuer or where the different investments could be expected to result in a conflict between our interests and those of Crescent’s clients, subject to the limitations described in the preceding paragraph, Crescent will need to decide which client will proceed with the investment. Similar restrictions limit our ability to transact business with our officers or directors or their affiliates. These restrictions will limit the scope of investment opportunities that would otherwise be available to us. Crescent has been granted exemptive relief from the SEC, upon
