The aggregate fair value of non-controlled, affiliated investments at September 30, 2011 represents 9.9% of the Companys net assets.

| | (e) | Approximately 66% of the senior secured loans to the Companys portfolio companies bear interest at a floating rate that may be determined by reference to the
London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or other base rate (commonly the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate), at the borrowers option. In addition, approximately 51% of such senior secured loans have floors of 1.00% to 3.25% on the LIBOR base
rate. The borrower under a senior secured loan generally has the option to select from interest reset periods of one, two, three or six months and may alter that selection at the end of any reset period. The stated interest rate represents the
weighted average interest rate at September 30, 2011 of all contracts within the specified loan facility.

The aggregate fair value of non-controlled, affiliated investments at December 31, 2010 represents 11.1% of the Companys net assets.



| | (f) | Approximately 71% of the senior secured loans to the Companys portfolio companies bear interest at a floating rate that may be determined by reference to the
London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or other base rate (commonly the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate), at the borrowers option. In addition, approximately 35% of such senior secured loans have floors of 1.50% to 3.25% on the LIBOR base
rate. The borrower under a senior secured loan generally has the option to select from interest reset periods of one, two, three or six months and may alter that selection at the end of any reset period. The stated interest rate represents the
weighted average interest rate at December 31, 2010 of all contracts within the specified loan facility.

BlackRock Kelso Capital Corporation

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Organization

BlackRock Kelso Capital Corporation (the
Company) was organized as a Delaware corporation on April 13, 2005 and was initially funded on July 25, 2005. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act). In addition, for tax purposes the Company has qualified and has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (RIC) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code).
The Companys investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. The Company invests primarily in middle-market companies in the form of senior and junior secured and unsecured
debt securities and loans, each of which may include an equity component, and by making direct preferred, common and other equity investments in such companies.

On July 25, 2005, the Company completed a private placement of 35,366,589 shares of its common stock at a price of $15.00 per share receiving net proceeds of approximately $529 million. On
July 2, 2007, the Company completed an initial public offering through which it sold an additional 10,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $16.00 per share and listed its shares on The NASDAQ Global Select Market. The Company
received net proceeds of approximately $150 million from this offering.

The accompanying financial statements are prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair
presentation of financial statements for the interim periods, have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including certain financial statement footnotes,
prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted herein. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys financial statements and notes related
thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 8, 2011.

2. Significant accounting policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ
and such differences could be material.

The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Company are:



|(a) | Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations unless they are deemed not
to represent fair value. The Company obtains market quotations, when available, from an independent pricing service or one or more broker-dealers or market makers and may utilize the average of the range of bid and ask quotations as a practical
expedient for fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the

| | direction of the Board of Directors using a consistently applied valuation process in accordance with a documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors.
Due to the inherent uncertainty and subjectivity of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Companys investments may differ significantly from the values that would
have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that the Company may ultimately realize. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events may have differing
impacts on the market quotations used to value some of the Companys investments than on the fair values of the Companys investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Market quotations may be deemed not to represent
fair value in certain circumstances where BlackRock Kelso Capital Advisors LLC (the Advisor), the Companys investment advisor, believes that facts and circumstances applicable to an issuer, a seller or purchaser or the market for a
particular security cause current market quotations to not reflect the fair value of the security. Examples of these events could include cases where a security trades infrequently causing a quoted purchase or sale price to become stale, where there
is a forced sale by a distressed seller, where market quotations vary substantially among market makers, or where there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid-ask spread.

With respect to the Companys investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market
quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, the Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| | (i) | The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially evaluated and rated by the investment
professionals of the Advisor responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | The investment professionals provide recent portfolio company financial statements and other reporting materials to independent valuation firms
engaged by the Board of Directors, such firms conduct independent appraisals each quarter and their preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with senior management of the Advisor;
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | The audit committee of the Board of Directors reviews the preliminary valuations prepared by the independent valuation firms; and
| | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iv) | The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input
of the Advisor, the respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those
investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market
approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for
example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that the Company
may take into account in determining the fair value of its investments include, as relevant and among other factors: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market
yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets
in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, the Companys principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values.

Until the end of the second calendar quarter following its acquisition, each unquoted investment in a new portfolio
company generally is valued at cost, which the Advisor believes approximates fair value under the circumstances. As of that date, an independent valuation firm may conduct an initial independent appraisal of the investment.

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820-10, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820-10), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value
measurements. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the
investment. ASC 820-10 emphasizes that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or
liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained
from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Companys assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information
available in the circumstances.

ASC 820-10 establishes a hierarchy that classifies these inputs into the three
broad levels listed below:

Level 1  Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2  Valuations based on
unadjusted 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. The inputs into the determination of fair value may require significant management
judgment or estimation. Even if observable market data is available, such information may be the result of consensus pricing information or broker quotes which include a disclaimer that the broker would not be held to such a price in an actual
transaction. The non-binding nature of consensus pricing and/or quotes accompanied by disclaimer would result in classification as Level 3 information, assuming no additional corroborating evidence.

Transfers between levels, if any, represent the value as of the beginning of the period of any investment where a change
in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period.

The Company evaluates the source of
inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading, in determining fair value and categorizes each investment within the fair value hierarchy pursuant to and consistent with ASC 820-10.



|(b) | Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date unless there are substantial conditions to the purchase.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(c) | Gains or losses on the disposition of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(d) | Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.
Discounts and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security. Premiums and discounts are determined based on the cash flows expected to be collected for a particular
investment.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dividend income is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that the Company
expects to collect such amounts. For loans and securities with payment-in-kind (PIK) income, which represents contractual interest or dividends accrued and added to the principal balance and generally due at maturity, PIK income is
accrued only to the extent that the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK income is likely to be collected.

Structuring service fees, origination, closing, commitment and other upfront fees are generally non-recurring and are recognized as revenue when earned. In instances where the Company does not perform
significant services in connection with the related investment, fees paid to the Company in these situations may be deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the loan.

##### Table of Contents

Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties and
unamortized loan origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees are recorded as interest income.

Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.



|(e) | The Company has elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and operates in a manner so as to qualify
for the tax treatment applicable to RICs.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to qualify for favorable tax treatment as a
RIC, the Company is required to distribute annually to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. To avoid federal excise taxes, the Company must distribute annually at least 98% of its income
(both ordinary income and net capital gains). The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If the Company chooses to do so, all other things being
equal, this would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to stockholders. The Company will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as required.

The Company holds 100% of the common stock of certain companies as indicated in the accompanying schedules of investments.
The Company carries its investments in such wholly owned companies at fair value in the statements of assets and liabilities, net of any applicable income tax liabilities. An income tax provision has been provided at the wholly owned company level
on all income of such companies, including realized and unrealized gains. Such wholly owned companies are held in connection with the Companys election to be taxed as a RIC. In general, these wholly owned companies earn income that, if earned
directly by the Company, would not be qualifying income for purposes of the Company qualifying as a RIC. Dividends from these wholly owned companies and gains from the sale of their stock are qualifying income for this purpose. The Company makes
investments in securities in accordance with its investment policies through these wholly owned companies.



|(f) | Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a
dividend is determined by the Board of Directors. Net realized capital gains, if any, generally are distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(g) | Loans or debt securities are placed on non-accrual status, as a general matter, when principal or interest payments are
past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Accrued interest generally is reversed when a loan or debt security is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual
loans or debt securities may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon managements judgment. Non-accrual loans and debt securities are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in
managements judgment, are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan or debt security has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

|(h) | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
|--- | ------------------------------------------

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(ASU 2010-06). ASU 2010-06 amends ASC 820-10 to require new disclosures with regard to transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements within the Level 3 fair value
rollforward. ASU 2010-06 also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the appropriate level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2
or Level 3. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures were effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements
in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption on January 1, 2010 and
January 1, 2011 of the respective additional disclosure requirements of ASU 2010-06 did not materially impact the Companys financial statements.

##### Table of Contents

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement:
Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04), which amends the existing fair value guidance within ASC 820-10. The amendments include: (1) application of
the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise only to measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets (that is, it does not apply to financial assets or any liabilities), (2) an exception to fair value measurement principles for
financial assets and financial liabilities (and derivatives) with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk, which allows an entity to measure the fair value of the net risk position, when several criteria are met,
(3) extension of the prohibition of a blockage factor application to all fair value measurements, (4) a model for the fair value measurement of instruments classified within an entitys shareholders equity which is consistent
with the guidance of measuring the fair value for liabilities, (5) additional disclosures for fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: (i) quantitative information about unobservable inputs used,
(ii) a description of the valuation processes used by the entity and (iii) a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements, (6) disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities not
recorded at fair value but where fair value is disclosed and (7) disclosure of any transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, not just significant transfers. The provisions of ASU 2011-04 are effective for the Company on
January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to materially impact the Companys financial statements.

3.
Agreements and related party transactions

The Company has entered into an Investment Management Agreement (the
Management Agreement) with the Advisor, under which the Advisor, subject to the overall supervision of the Companys Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the
Company. For providing these services, the Advisor receives a base management fee (the Management Fee) from the Company quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 2.0% of the Companys total assets, including any assets acquired with
the proceeds of leverage.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Advisor earned $5,124,033 and
$14,547,503, respectively, in Management Fees under the Management Agreement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Advisor earned $4,049,347 and $12,522,832, respectively, in such fees from the Company.

The Management Agreement provides that the Advisor or its affiliates may be entitled to an incentive management fee (the Incentive
Fee) under certain circumstances. The determination of the Incentive Fee, as described in more detail below, will result in the Advisor or its affiliates receiving no Incentive Fee payments if returns to Company stockholders do not meet an
8.0% annualized rate of return during the applicable fee measurement period and will result in the Advisor or its affiliates receiving less than the full amount of the Incentive Fee percentage until returns to stockholders exceed an approximate
13.3% annualized rate of return during such period. Annualized rate of return in this context is computed by reference to the Companys net asset value and does not take into account changes in the market price of the Companys common
stock.

The Advisor will be entitled to receive the Incentive Fee if the Companys performance exceeds a hurdle
rate during different measurement periods: trailing four quarters periods (which applies only to the portion of the Incentive Fee based on income) and annual periods (which applies only to the portion of the Incentive Fee based on
capital gains). The trailing four quarters periods for purposes of determining the income portion of the Incentive Fee payable for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was determined by reference to the four
quarter periods ended on September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The term annual period means the period beginning on July 1 of each calendar year and ending on June 30 of the next calendar year.

The hurdle rate for each measurement period is 2.0% multiplied by the Companys net asset values at the beginning of each calendar
quarter during the measurement period, calculated after giving effect to any distributions that occurred during the measurement period. A portion of the Incentive Fee is based on the Companys income and a portion is based on capital gains.
Each portion of the Incentive Fee is described below.

##### Table of Contents

Quarterly Incentive Fee Based on Income.For each trailing four quarters
period, the Company pays the Advisor an Incentive Fee based on the amount by which (A) aggregate distributions and amounts distributable out of taxable net income (excluding any capital gain and loss) during the period less the amount, if any,
by which net unrealized capital depreciation exceeds net realized capital gains during the period exceeds (B) the hurdle rate for the period. The amount of the excess of (A) over (B) described in this paragraph for each period is
referred to as the excess income amount.

The portion of the Incentive Fee based on income for each period will equal 50% of
the periods excess income amount, until the cumulative Incentive Fee payments for the period equal 20% of the periods income amount distributed or distributable to stockholders as described in clause (A) of the preceding paragraph.
Thereafter, the portion of the Incentive Fee based on income for the period will equal 20% of the periods remaining excess income amount.

Annual Incentive Fee Based on Capital Gains.The portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains is calculated on an annual basis. For each annual period, the Company pays the Advisor an
Incentive Fee based on the amount by which (A) net realized capital gains, if any, to the extent they exceed gross unrealized capital depreciation, if any, occurring during the period exceeds (B) the amount, if any, by which the
periods hurdle rate exceeds the amount of income used in the determination of the Incentive Fee based on income for the period. The amount of the excess of (A) over (B) described in this paragraph is referred to as the excess gain
amount.

The portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains for each period will equal 50% of the periods excess
gain amount, until such payments equal 20% of the periods capital gain amount distributed or distributable to stockholders. Thereafter, the portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains for the period equals an amount such that the
portion of the Incentive Fee payments to the Advisor based on capital gains for the period equals 20% of the periods remaining excess gain amount. The result of this formula is that, if the portion of the Incentive Fee based on income for the
period exceeds the periods hurdle, then the portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains will be capped at 20% of the capital gain amount.

In calculating whether the portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains is payable with respect to any period, the Company accounts for its assets on a security-by-security basis. In addition, the
Company uses the period-to-period method pursuant to which the portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains for any period is based on realized capital gains for the period reduced by realized capital losses and gross unrealized
capital depreciation for the period. Based on current interpretations of Section 205(b)(3) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 by the SEC and its staff, the calculation of unrealized depreciation for each portfolio security over a period is
based on the fair value of the security at the end of the period compared to the fair value at the beginning of the period. Incentive Fees earned in any of the periods described above are not subject to modification or repayment based upon
performance in a subsequent period.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Advisor earned no
incentive fees from the Company. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Advisor earned zero and $493,951, respectively, in incentive fees from the Company.

The Management Agreement provides that the Company will reimburse the Advisor for costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor for office
space rental, office equipment and utilities allocable to the Advisor under the Management Agreement, as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor relating to any non-investment advisory, administrative or operating services provided by
the Advisor to the Company. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred $315,435 and $1,176,450, respectively, for such investment advisor expenses under the Management Agreement. Reimbursements to the Advisor
for such investment advisor expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $394,306 and $1,178,267, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

From time to time, the Advisor may pay amounts owed by the Company to third party providers
of goods or services. The Company will subsequently reimburse the Advisor for such amounts paid on its behalf. Reimbursements to the Advisor for such purposes during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $816,130 and
$1,583,453, respectively. Reimbursements to the Advisor for such purposes during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $377,773 and $2,092,971, respectively.

No person who is an officer, director or employee of the Advisor and who serves as a director of the Company receives any compensation
from the Company for such services. Directors who are not affiliated with the Advisor receive compensation for their services and reimbursement of expenses incurred to attend meetings.

The Company also has entered into an administration agreement with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (the Administrator)
under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Company. For providing these services, facilities and personnel, the Company reimburses the Administrator for the Companys allocable portion of overhead and other expenses
incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including rent and the Companys allocable portion of the cost of certain of the Companys officers and their respective staffs. For the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred $268,303 and $713,528, respectively, for administrative services expenses payable to the Administrator under the administration agreement. For the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2010, the Company incurred $161,284 and $552,651, respectively, in such expenses.

At September 30,
2011 and December 31, 2010, cash equivalents of $30,223,195 and $1,344,159, respectively, consisted of short term liquid investments in a money market fund managed by an affiliate of the Administrator.

In March 2011, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the purchase in a private placement of up to 1,000,000 shares of the
Companys common stock, by the Advisor in its discretion, subject to compliance with the Companys and the Advisors applicable policies and requirements of law. Pursuant to this authorization, on March 16, 2011, the Company
issued and sold to the Advisor in a private placement 200,000 shares of common stock for $2,000,000 or $10.00 per share, which was the closing price of the Companys common stock on The NASDAQ Global Select Market on that date.

At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Advisor owned and had the right to vote approximately 276,000 and 47,000
shares, respectively, of the Companys common stock, representing less than 1.0% of the total shares outstanding. On such dates, under compensation arrangements for its officers and employees the Advisor owned of record, but did not have the
right to vote, an additional 242,000 and 426,000 shares, respectively, of the Companys common stock. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, other entities affiliated with the Administrator beneficially owned approximately
4,697,000 and 4,181,000 shares, respectively, of the Companys common stock, representing approximately 6.4% and 5.8% of the total shares outstanding. An entity affiliated with the Administrator has ownership and financial interests in the
Advisor.

share from operations for each period because there were no common stock equivalents outstanding during the above periods.

5. Investments

Purchases of investments for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 totaled $139,401,945 and
$177,428,077, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 totaled $260,528,598 and $321,716,307, respectively. Sales/repayments of investments for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 totaled
$87,591,684 and $100,205,621, respectively, and for nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 totaled $163,013,170 and $354,230,907, respectively.

Under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify non-controlled investments where it owns 5% or more of a portfolio companys outstanding voting securities as investments in
affiliated companies. In addition, under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify investments where it owns more than 25% of a portfolio companys outstanding voting securities as investments in
controlled companies. Detailed information with respect to the Companys non-controlled non-affiliated, non-controlled affiliated and controlled investments is contained in the accompanying schedules of investments and other
financial statements. The information in the tables below is presented on an aggregate portfolio basis, without segregating the non-controlled non-affiliated, non-controlled affiliated and controlled investment categories.

At September 30, 2011, investments consisted of the following:

##### Table of Contents

In the normal course of business, the Company invests in securities and enters into
transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Company may decline in response to certain
events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Company; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and
interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Company may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Company has unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on
its commitments. The Company manages counterparty risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those
counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Company to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of investments in portfolio companies. The extent of the Companys exposure to market, issuer and
counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities. The Company is also exposed to credit risk related to maintaining all of its cash at
a major financial institution and in short-term liquid investments in a money market fund.

The Company has investments in
lower rated and comparable quality unrated senior and junior secured, unsecured and subordinated debt securities and loans, which are subject to a greater degree of credit risk than more highly rated investments. The risk of loss due to default by
the issuer is significantly greater for holders of such securities and loans, particularly in cases where the investment is unsecured or subordinated to other creditors of the issuer.

6. Derivatives

The Company may enter into forward foreign currency
contracts from time to time to facilitate settlement of purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies or to help mitigate the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the
Companys investments denominated in foreign currencies. A forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date (usually the security transaction settlement date) at a negotiated forward
rate. These contracts are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the contract exchange rate and the current market rate as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses are recognized when contracts are settled.
The Companys forward foreign currency contracts generally have terms of approximately three months. The volume of open contracts at the end of each reporting period is reflective of the typical volume of transactions during each calendar
quarter. Risks may arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company attempts to limit this risk by dealing with only creditworthy counterparties.

At September 30, 2011, details of open forward foreign currency contracts were as follows:

All realized and unrealized gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts are
included in earnings (changes in net assets) and are reported as separate line items within the Companys statements of operations. Unrealized gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts are also reported as separate line items
within the Companys statements of assets and liabilities.

The Company holds warrants and options in certain portfolio
companies in an effort to achieve additional investment return. In purchasing warrants and options, the Company bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying equity interest. The aggregate fair value of warrants and options
as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 represents 0.7% and 0.8%, respectively, of the Companys net assets.

The Company may enter into other derivative instruments and incur other exposures with other counterparties in the future.

7. Debt

Under the terms of the Companys amended and restated Senior
Secured, Multi-Currency Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility), as amended on April 20, 2010, certain lenders agreed to extend credit to the Company in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $375,000,000 outstanding, at any one
time, consisting of $275,000,000 of revolving loan commitments and $100,000,000 of term loan commitments. The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets in the Companys portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents. Subject
to certain exceptions, pricing for outstanding borrowings is at LIBOR plus an applicable spread of either 3.00% or 3.25% for revolving loans, based on a pricing grid using the Companys credit rating, and LIBOR plus 3.00% for term loans. The
Credit Facility does not contain a LIBOR floor requirement. At September 30, 2011, the effective LIBOR spread under the Credit Facility was 2.80%. Term loan commitments under the Credit Facility have been fully drawn and, once repaid, may not
be reborrowed. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the Credit Facility by up to an additional $275,000,000 of revolving loan commitments and
$250,000,000 of term loan commitments. The Credit Facility is used to supplement the Companys equity capital to make additional portfolio investments and for other general corporate purposes.

At September 30, 2011, the Company had $142,450,000 drawn on the Credit Facility versus $170,000,000 at December 31, 2010.
Subject to compliance with applicable covenants and borrowing base limitations, the remaining amount available under the Credit Facility was $232,550,000 at September 30, 2011.

On January 18, 2011, the Company closed a private placement issuance of $158,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of five-year,
senior secured notes with a fixed interest rate of 6.50% and a maturity date of January 18, 2016 and $17,000,000 million in aggregate principal amount of seven-year, senior secured notes with a fixed interest rate of 6.60% and a maturity date
of January 18, 2018 (collectively, the Senior Secured Notes). The Senior Secured Notes were sold to certain institutional accredited investors pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is due semi-annually on January 18 and July 18, commencing on July 18, 2011.

The Companys average outstanding debt balance during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $294,000,543 and $276,577,106, respectively. The maximum amounts borrowed during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $320,000,000 and $363,000,000, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $205,500,000 and $314,000,000. The weighted average annual interest cost
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was 5.21% and 5.25%, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was 2.96% and 2.25%, exclusive of commitment fees and of other prepaid expenses related to
establishing the Credit Facility and the Senior Secured Notes. With respect to any unused portion of the commitments under the Credit Facility, the Company incurs an annual commitment fee of 0.50%. Commitment fees incurred for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2011 were $329,677 and $995,649, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $417,243 and $843,784.

At September 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all covenants required under
the Credit Facility and the Senior Secured Notes.

8. Capital stock

As a closed-end investment company regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, the Company is prohibited from selling shares of its common
stock at a price below the current net asset value of the stock, or NAV, unless the Companys stockholders approve such a sale and its Board of Directors makes certain determinations. On May 26, 2011, subject to certain Board of Director
determinations, the Companys stockholders approved the ability to sell or otherwise issue shares of the Companys common stock at a price below its then current net asset value per share for a twelve month period expiring on the
anniversary of the date of stockholder approval. In any such case, the price at which the Companys common stock would be issued and sold may not be less than a price that, in the determination of the Companys Board of Directors, closely
approximates the market value of such common stock. Any sale of the Companys common stock at a price below NAV would have a dilutive effect on NAV.

In 2008, the Companys Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan under which the Company may repurchase up to 2.5 percent of its outstanding shares of common stock from time to time in open
market or privately negotiated transactions. In 2009, the Board of Directors approved an extension and increase to the plan which authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional 2.5 percent of its outstanding shares of common stock. In May
2011, the repurchase plan was further extended through the earlier of June 30, 2012 or until the approved number of shares has been repurchased. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company purchased a total of 400,000
shares of its common stock on the open market for $3,540,397, including brokerage commissions. There were no such purchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Since inception of the repurchase plan through September 30, 2011,
the Company has purchased 1,361,679 shares of its common stock on the open market for $8,966,297, including brokerage commissions. At September 30, 2011, the total number of remaining shares authorized for repurchase was 1,394,971. The Company
currently holds the shares it repurchased in treasury.

9. Guarantees and commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into guarantees on behalf of portfolio companies. Under these arrangements, the
Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. The Company has no such guarantees outstanding at September 30, 2011. The Companys only such
guarantee outstanding at December 31, 2010 was terminated on January 17, 2011 with no payments having been made thereunder.

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contractual agreements that provide general indemnifications against losses, costs, claims and liabilities arising from the performance of
individual obligations under such agreements. The Company has had no prior claims or payments pursuant to such agreements. The Companys individual maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that
may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on managements experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote.

From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of its business, including the enforcement of the Companys rights under contracts with its
portfolio companies. While the Company cannot predict the outcome of these legal proceedings with certainty, it does not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect on its financial statements.

10. Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying values of the Companys financial instruments approximate fair value. The carrying values of receivables, other assets,
accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying and fair values of the Companys Credit Facility borrowings were $142,450,000 and $131,054,000 at September 30, 2011 and $170,000,000
and $169,150,000 at December 31, 2010, respectively. The carrying and fair values of the Companys Secured Senior Notes were $175,000,000 and $174,830,000 at September 30, 2011. The carrying and fair values of the Companys total
debt outstanding were therefore $317,450,000 and $305,884,000 at September 30, 2011 and $170,000,000 and $169,150,000 at December 31, 2010, respectively.

The following tables summarize the fair values of the Companys investments, forward foreign currency contracts and cash and cash equivalents based on the inputs used at September 30, 2011 and
December 31, 2010 in determining such fair values:

Item 2.    Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

Overview

We were incorporated in Delaware on April 13, 2005 and were initially funded on July 25, 2005. Our investment objective is to
provide a combination of current income and capital appreciation. We intend to invest primarily in debt and equity securities of private and certain public U.S. middle-market companies.

We are externally managed and have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain
regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in qualifying assets, including securities of private or thinly traded public U.S. companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Government
securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less.

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of
debt and equity capital available to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.

As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than qualifying assets specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the
acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in eligible portfolio companies. Under the relevant SEC rules, the term eligible
portfolio company includes all private companies, companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market
capitalization of less than $250 million. These rules also permit us to include as qualifying assets certain follow-on investments in companies that were eligible portfolio companies at the time of initial investment but that no longer meet the
definition.

Revenues

We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest on the debt we hold, dividends on our equity interests and capital gains on the sale of warrants and other debt or equity interests that we acquire
in portfolio companies. Our investments in fixed income instruments generally have an expected maturity of three to ten years, although we have no lower or upper constraint on maturity, and typically bear interest at a fixed or floating rate.
Interest on our debt securities is generally payable quarterly or semi-annually. Payments of principal of our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some
cases, our debt instruments and preferred stock investments may defer payments of cash interest or dividends or pay interest or dividends in-kind. Any outstanding principal amount of our debt securities and any accrued but unpaid interest will
generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment fees, commitment, origination, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing significant managerial assistance and consulting fees.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of a base management fee and, depending on our operating results, an incentive management fee, expenses reimbursable under the management agreement,
administration fees and the allocable portion of overhead under the administration agreement. The base management fee and incentive management fee compensate the Advisor for work in identifying, evaluating,

negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. Our management agreement with the Advisor provides that we will reimburse the Advisor for costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor for
office space rental, office equipment and utilities allocable to the Advisor under the management agreement, as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor relating to any non-investment advisory, administrative or operating services
provided by the Advisor to us. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions.

Critical accounting policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the
economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are
further described in the notes to the financial statements and in Note 2 to the financial statements in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on March 8, 2011. See
Note 2 to the financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a description of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Portfolio and investment activity

During the three months ended
September 30, 2011, we invested approximately $139.4 million across three new and several existing portfolio companies. The new investments consisted primarily of senior loans secured by first liens ($8.8 million, or 6% of the total invested)
or second liens ($119.2 million, or 85%), senior secured notes ($10.9 million, or 8%) and unsecured or subordinated debt securities and equity securities ($0.5 million, or 1%). Additionally, we received proceeds from sales/repayments and other exits
of approximately $87.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

At September 30, 2011, our net
portfolio of $1,022.5 million (at fair value) consisted of 54 portfolio companies and was invested 57.9% in senior secured loans, 16.7% in unsecured or subordinated debt securities,

11.2% in equity investments, 11.2% in senior secured notes and 3% in cash and cash equivalents. Our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost was approximately $19.4 million at
September 30, 2011. Our largest portfolio company investment by value was approximately $50.0 million and our five largest portfolio company investments by value comprised approximately 22% of our portfolio at September 30, 2011. At
December 31, 2010, our net portfolio of $882 million (at fair value) consisted of 50 portfolio companies and was invested 50% in senior secured loans, 26% in unsecured or subordinated debt securities, 14% in equity investments, 10% in senior
secured notes and less than 1% in cash and cash equivalents. Our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost was approximately $19.7 million at December 31, 2010. Our largest portfolio company investment by value was approximately
$53.1 million and our five largest portfolio company investments by value comprised approximately 26% of our portfolio at December 31, 2010.

The weighted average yield of the debt and income producing equity securities in our portfolio at fair value was 12.7% at September 30, 2011 and 12.4% at December 31, 2010. The weighted average
yields on our senior secured loans and other debt securities at fair value were 11.9% and 14.1%, respectively, at September 30, 2011, versus 11.3% and 14.3%, respectively at December 31, 2010. The weighted average yield of the debt and
income producing equity securities in our portfolio at their current cost basis was 11.9% at September 30, 2011 and 10.9% at December 31, 2010. The weighted average yields on our senior secured loans and other debt securities at their
current cost basis were 11.7% and 12.1%, respectively, at September 30, 2011, versus 10.1% and 12.1%, respectively at December 31, 2010. Yields are computed using interest rates and dividend yields as of the balance sheet date and include
amortization of loan origination and commitment fees, original issue discount and market premium or discount based in the expected cash flows of the respective portfolio investment. Yields exclude common equity investments, preferred equity
investments with no stated dividend rate, short-term investments, cash and cash equivalents.

At September 30, 2011, 48%
of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates, such as LIBOR, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, and 52% bore interest at fixed rates. The percentage of our total debt investments that bore floating rate interest based on an
interest rate floor was 38% at September 30, 2011. At December 31, 2010, 45% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates and 55% bore interest at fixed rates. The percentage of our total debt investments that bore
floating rate interest based on an interest rate floor was 25% at December 31, 2010.

The Advisor employs a grading
system for our portfolio. The Advisor grades all loans on a scale of 1 to 4. This system is intended to reflect the performance of the borrowers business, the collateral coverage of the loans and other factors considered relevant.
Generally, the Advisor assigns only one loan grade to each portfolio company for all loan investments in that portfolio company; however, the Advisor will assign multiple ratings when appropriate for different investments in one portfolio company.
The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:

Grade 1: Investments in
portfolio companies whose performance is substantially within the Advisors expectations and whose risk factors are neutral to favorable to those at the time of the original investment.

Grade 2: Investments in portfolio companies whose performance is below the Advisors expectations and that require closer
monitoring; however, no loss of investment return (interest and/or dividends) or principal is expected.

Grade 3:
Investments in portfolio companies whose performance is below the Advisors expectations and for which risk has increased materially since origination. Some loss of investment return is expected, but no loss of principal is expected. Companies
graded 3 generally will be out of compliance with debt covenants and will be unlikely to make debt repayments on their original schedule.

Grade 4: Investments in portfolio companies whose performance is materially below the Advisors expectations where business trends have deteriorated and risk factors have increased
substantially since the original investment. Investments graded 4 are those for which some loss of principal is expected.

The Advisor monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment ratings assigned to each
investment in our portfolio. In connection with our valuation process, the Advisor and Board of Directors review these investment ratings on a quarterly basis. Our average investment rating was 1.26 at September 30, 2011 versus 1.32 at
December 31, 2010. The following is a distribution of the investment ratings of our portfolio companies at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Results of operations

Results comparisons for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Investment income

Investment income totaled $33,247,245 and
$24,818,170, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, of which $20,969,719 and $14,846,614 were attributable to interest and fees on senior secured loans, $11,282,828 and $9,098,750 to interest earned on other debt
securities, $993,689 and $870,182 to dividends from preferred equity securities and $1,009 and $2,624 to interest on cash equivalents, respectively. The increase in investment income for the three months reflects the growth of our portfolio as a
result of the deployment of debt capital under our Credit Facility.

Expenses

Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were $12,282,632 and $8,006,918, respectively, which consisted of
$5,124,033 and $4,049,347 in base management fees, $4,208,359 and $1,748,712 in interest expense and fees related to the Credit Facility, $683,095 and $394,589 in professional fees, $634,678 and $713,305 in amortization of debt issuance costs,
$319,500 and $203,182 in administrative services, $315,435 and $394,306 in Advisor expenses, $108,186 and $123,409 in insurance expenses, $97,000 and $93,500 in director fees and $792,346 and $286,568 in other expenses, respectively. The increase in
base management fees reflects the overall growth of our portfolio. The increase in interest expense and fees related to the Credit Facility primarily reflect the issuance of our Senior Secured Notes in January 2011. The increase in professional fees
is due to nonrecurring legal and other professional expenditures incurred.

Net investment income

Net investment income was $20,964,613 and $16,811,252 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase
is primarily a result of an increase in interest and capital structuring fees, partially offset by an increase in interest and Credit Facility related expenses.

Net realized gain or loss

Net realized gain of $1,135,851 for the
three months ended September 30, 2011 was the result of $453,768 in net gains realized from the disposition of our investments and $682,083 in net gains realized on foreign currency transactions. Foreign currency gains mainly represent net gains on
forward currency contracts used to mitigate the impact that changes in foreign exchange rates would have on our investments denominated in foreign currencies. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, net realized gain was $1,275,938, which was
comprised of $400,317 in net gains realized from the disposition or restructuring of our investments and $875,621 in net gains realized on foreign currency transactions.

Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation

For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the change in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation was an increase in net
unrealized depreciation of $(9,162,980) and $(1,771,486), respectively. The increase in net unrealized depreciation for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was comprised of an increase in net unrealized depreciation on investments of
$(10,419,767) and a net unrealized foreign currency translation gain of $1,256,787. The valuations of our investments were impacted by the underperformance of certain portfolio companies, as well as a reduction in the multiples used to estimate the
fair value of some of our investments. Market-wide movements and trading multiples are not necessarily indicative of any fundamental change in the condition or prospects of our portfolio companies. The increase in net unrealized depreciation for the
three months ended September 30, 2010 was comprised of an increase in net unrealized depreciation on investments of ($7,842) and a net unrealized foreign currency translation loss of ($1,763,644).

Net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations

The net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was an
increase of $12,937,484 and $16,315,704, respectively. As compared to the prior period, the lower net increase in net assets from operations primarily reflects the increase in net investment income as well as the increase in net unrealized
depreciation on investments, net of realized gains, for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Results of operations

Results comparisons for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Secured Notes in January 2011. The increase in professional fees is due to nonrecurring legal and other professional expenditures incurred during the current period.

Net investment income

Net investment income was $61,580,481 and
$57,497,154 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase is primarily a result of an increase in interest, capital structuring fees, and one time fees collected from the early repayment of one of our largest
portfolio companies, partially offset by an increase in interest and Credit Facility related expenses.

Supplemental information

We report our financial results on a GAAP basis; however, management believes that evaluating our ongoing operating
results may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP basis financial measures. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures to assess ongoing operations and, for the reasons described below, considers them to be effective indicators, for
both management and investors, of our financial performance over time. Management does not advocate that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with
GAAP.

We record our liability for Incentive Fees as we become legally obligated to pay them, based on a hypothetical
liquidation at the end of each reporting period. Our obligation to pay Incentive Fees with respect to any fiscal quarter is based on a formula that reflects our results over a trailing four-fiscal quarter period ending with the current fiscal
quarter. We are legally obligated to pay the amount resulting from the formula less any cash payments of Incentive Fees during the prior three quarters. The formulas requirement to reduce the Incentive Fees by amounts paid with respect to
Incentive Fees in the prior three quarters has caused our Incentive Fees expense to become, and currently is expected to be, concentrated in the fourth quarter of each year.

##### Table of Contents

Management believes that reflecting Incentive Fees throughout the year, as the related investment income is earned, is an effective measure of our profitability and financial performance that
facilitates comparison of current results with historical results and with those of our peers. Our as adjusted results reflect Incentive Fees based on the formula we utilize for each trailing four-fiscal quarter period, with the formula
applied to the current quarters incremental earnings and without any reduction for Incentive Fees paid during the prior three quarters. The resulting amount represents an upper limit of each quarters incremental Incentive Fees that we
may become legally obligated to pay. However, amounts calculated on a cumulative basis may yield amounts higher than the prior quarterly periods as presented. Prior year amounts are estimated in the same manner. These estimates represent upper
limits because, in any calendar year, subsequent quarters investment underperformance could reduce the Incentive Fees payable with respect to prior quarters operating results. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and
other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ and such differences could be material. See Note 3 to the financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a more detailed description of the Companys
incentive management fee.

Computations for all periods are derived from our financial statements as follows:

Financial condition, liquidity and capital resources

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we generated operating cash flows primarily from interest earned and fees received
on senior secured loans and other debt securities, as well as from sales and unsettled purchases of selected portfolio company investments or repayments of principal.

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $56,870,018. Our primary use of cash in operating activities during the period was purchases of investments
in portfolio companies (net of sales and repayments) of $97,515,428.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30,
2011 was $84,954,566. Our primary source of cash for financing activities was $175,000,000 in proceeds from the issuance of our Senior Secured Notes in January. Our primary source of cash for financing activities was a use of $59,264,457 of dividend
distributions and a source of $27,550,000 of net repayments under our Credit Facility.

Our senior secured, multi-currency
Credit Facility provides us with $375,000,000 in total availability, consisting of $275,000,000 of revolving loan commitments and $100,000,000 of term loan commitments. The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets in our
portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents. The Credit Facility has a stated maturity date of December 6, 2013 and the interest rate applicable to borrowings thereunder is generally LIBOR plus an applicable spread of either 3.00% or 3.25%
for revolving loans, based on a pricing grid depending on the Companys credit rating, and LIBOR plus 3.00% for term loans. The Credit Facility does not contain a LIBOR floor requirement. At September 30, 2011, the effective LIBOR spread
under the Credit Facility was 2.80%. Term loan commitments under the Credit Facility have been fully drawn and, once repaid, may not be reborrowed. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that allows the Company, under
certain circumstances, to increase the size of the Credit Facility by up to an additional $275,000,000 of revolving loan commitments and $250,000,000 of term loan commitments. The Credit Facility is used to supplement the Companys equity
capital to make additional portfolio investments and for other general corporate purposes. At September 30, 2011, we had $142,450,000 drawn and outstanding under the Credit Facility, with $232,550,000 available to us, subject to compliance with
customary affirmative and negative covenants, including the maintenance of a minimum stockholders equity, the maintenance of a ratio of not less than 200% of total assets (less total liabilities not represented by senior securities) to the
aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness, and restrictions on certain payments and issuance of debt. At September 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with regulatory coverage requirements with an asset coverage ratio
of approximately 323% and was in compliance with all financial covenants under our debt agreements. In addition, borrowings under the Credit Facility (and the incurrence of certain other permitted debt) are subject to compliance with a borrowing
base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets in the Companys portfolio.

On January 18,
2011, the Company closed a private placement issuance of $158,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes with a fixed interest rate of 6.50% and a maturity date of January 18, 2016 and $17,000,000 million in aggregate
principal amount of Senior Secured Notes with a fixed interest rate of 6.60% and a maturity date of January 18, 2018. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is due semi-annually on January 18 and July 18, commencing on July 18,
2011. The proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes were used to fund new portfolio investments, reduce outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. The Senior Secured Notes contain customary
affirmative and negative covenants substantially similar to those in our Credit Facility. At September 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all financial and operational covenants required by the Credit Facility and Senior Secured Notes.

At September 30, 2011, we had $30,227,012 in cash and cash equivalents.

The primary use of existing funds is expected to be purchases of investments in portfolio companies, cash distributions to our
stockholders, repayment of indebtedness and other general corporate purposes.

Our shelf registration permits us to offer,
from time to time, up to approximately $830 million of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants representing rights to purchase shares of our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities and subscription rights. As a
closed-end investment company regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, we are prohibited from selling shares of our common stock at a price below the current net asset value of the stock, or NAV, unless our stockholders approve such a sale and our
Board of Directors makes certain determinations. On May 26, 2011, subject to certain Board of Director determinations, our stockholders approved our ability to sell or otherwise issue shares of our common stock at a price below its then current
net asset value per share for a twelve month period expiring on the anniversary of the date of stockholder approval. In any such case, the price at which our common stock would be issued and sold may not be less than a price that, in the
determination of our Board of Directors, closely approximates the market value of such common stock. Any sale of the Companys common stock at a price below NAV would have a dilutive effect on our NAV.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into guarantees on behalf of portfolio companies. Under these arrangements, the Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the
portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. The Company has no such guarantees outstanding at September 30, 2011. The Companys only such guarantee outstanding at December 31, 2010 was terminated on
January 17, 2011 with no payments having been made thereunder.

Dividends

Our quarterly dividends, if any, are determined by our Board of Directors. Dividends are declared considering our estimate of annual
taxable income available for distribution to stockholders and the amount of taxable income carried over from the prior year for distribution in the current year. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any dividends and distributions at
all or dividends and distributions at a particular level. Dividends declared by the Company since July 25, 2005 (inception of operations) have been as follows:

Tax characteristics of all dividends are reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end
of the calendar year.

We have qualified and elected and intend to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to
regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Code, and, among other things, have made and intend to continue to make the requisite distributions to our stockholders which will relieve us from federal income taxes. Therefore, no provision
has been recorded for federal income taxes. We may, at our discretion, carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. We will accrue excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income
as required.

In order to qualify for favorable tax treatment as a RIC, we are required to distribute annually to our
stockholders at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. To avoid federal excise taxes, we must distribute annually at least 98% of our income (both ordinary income and net capital gains).

A portion of amounts we have paid or will pay as dividends to stockholders during 2011 may consist of taxable income carried forward from
the prior year. Taxable income carried forward from the prior year to 2011 totaled approximately $8,900,000 or $0.12 per share.

We maintain an opt out dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, except as discussed below, if we
declare a dividend, stockholders cash dividends will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, unless they specifically opt out of the dividend reinvestment plan so as to receive cash dividends. With
respect to our dividends and distributions paid to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, dividends reinvested pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan totaled $6,294,969 and $3,722,710, respectively.

Under the terms of our amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan adopted on March 4, 2009, dividends may be paid
in newly issued or treasury shares of our common stock at a price equal to 95% of the market price on the dividend payment date. This feature of the plan means that, under certain circumstances, we may issue shares of our common stock at a price
below net asset value per share, which could cause our stockholders to experience dilution.

Income we receive from
origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are generally non-recurring and are recognized as revenue when earned. These income items are generally treated as taxable income
when received and accordingly, distributed to stockholders. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, these fees totaled $3,600,000. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, these fees totaled $4,835,000 and
$7,235,962, respectively.

In order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement applicable to RICs, we have the ability to
declare a large portion of a dividend in shares of our common stock instead of in cash. As long as a sufficient portion of such dividend is paid in cash (which portion can be as low as 10% for our taxable years ending prior to 2012) and certain
requirements are met, the entire distribution would be treated as a taxable dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Recent
developments

On November 2, 2011, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.26 per share, payable on
January 4, 2012 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 21, 2011.

Notice is hereby given in
accordance with Section 23 of the 1940 Act that from time to time we may purchase shares of our common stock in the open market at prevailing market prices.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. At September 30,
2011, 48% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates, such as LIBOR, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate. The interest rates on such investments generally reset by reference to the current market index after one to six
months. At September 30, 2011, the percentage of our total debt investments that bore floating rate interest based on an interest rate floor was 38%. Floating rate investments subject to a floor generally reset by reference to the current
market index after one to six months only if the index exceeds the floor.

To illustrate the potential impact of changes in
interest rates, we have performed the following analysis based on our September 30, 2011 balance sheet and assuming no changes in our investment structure. Net asset value is analyzed using the assumptions that interest rates, as defined by the
LIBOR and U.S. Treasury yield curves, increase or decrease and that the yield curves of the rate shocks will be parallel to each other. Under this analysis, an instantaneous 100 basis point increase in LIBOR and U.S. Treasury yields would cause a
decline of approximately $9,300,000 or $0.13 per share, in the value of our net assets at September 30, 2011 and a corresponding 100 basis point decrease in LIBOR and U.S. Treasury yields would cause an increase of approximately $9,700,000, or
$0.13 per share, in the value of our net assets on that date.

While hedging activities may help to insulate us against
adverse changes in interest rates, they also may limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we did
not engage in any interest rate hedging activity.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to us that is
required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

There have been no
changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we and the Advisor may be a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business, including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our
portfolio companies. While we cannot predict the outcome of these legal proceedings with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect on our financial statements.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K filing.

In 2008, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan under which we may repurchase up to 2.5 percent of our
outstanding shares of common stock from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions. In 2009, our Board of Directors approved an extension and increase to the share repurchase plan which authorized us to repurchase up to an
additional 2.5 percent of our outstanding shares of common stock from time to time. In May 2011, the repurchase plan was further extended through the earlier of June 30, 2012 or until the approved number of shares has been repurchased. After
giving effect to the Boards most recent action, the total number of additional shares authorized for repurchase is 1,394,971. The repurchase plan does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares and may be discontinued at any
time. We intend to fund any repurchases with available cash.
