|--- | ------------------------------------------

The aggregate fair value of non-controlled, affiliated investments (net of unearned income) at March 31, 2010 represents 10.8% of net
assets.



|(e) | Approximately 64% 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 7% 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 March 31, 2010 of all contracts within the specified loan facility.

| | Investment moved out of the non-controlled, affiliated category into the controlled category during the year.
|- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The aggregate fair value of non-controlled, affiliated investments (net of unearned income) at December 31, 2009 represents 5.0% of
net assets.



|(f) | 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 9% 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, 2009 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. Offering costs were charged
against paid-in capital.

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 necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.

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, 2009, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 12, 2010.

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 generally obtains market quotations from an independent pricing service or one or more broker-dealers or market makers and utilizes the average of the range of bid and ask quotations as a practical expedient for fair value. However, debt
investments with remaining maturities within 60 days are valued at amortized cost, which approximates 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 Companys Board of Directors. Because the Company expects that there will not be a readily available market value for substantially all
of the investments in its portfolio, the Company expects to value substantially all of its portfolio investments 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

| | Companys investment advisor (the 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 undertakes 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 of 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 approximates fair value. As of that date, an independent valuation firm conducts 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.



22



---

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s valuation policy is consistent with ASC 820-10. In accordance with this valuation policy, the Company
evaluates the source of inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading, in determining fair value.



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



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



|(d) | Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, and dividend income are 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. Origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees and discounts and premiums on investments purchased are
accreted/amortized over the life of the respective investment. Unamortized origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees are recorded as unearned income. 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 currently qualifies, and intends to continue to qualify each year, as a RIC under the
Code.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
These wholly owned companies are recorded 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, included 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 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 is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon
managements judgment. Non-accrual loans 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
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



23



---

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 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales 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 of the applicable additional disclosure requirements of ASU 2010-06
did not 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 months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Advisor earned $4,322,471 and $4,748,218, respectively, in base management
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 March 31, 2010 and 2009 was determined by
reference to the four quarter periods ended on March 31, 2010 and 2009, 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.

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.

Periodic 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.



24



---

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 months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Advisor earned $493,951 and zero, 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

The geographic composition of the portfolio at fair value at March 31, 2010 was United States 92.3%,
Canada 7.7% and United Kingdom and other less than 0.1%, and at December 31, 2009 was United States 93.7%, Canada 6.3% and United Kingdom and other less than 0.1%. The geographic composition is determined by the location of the corporate
headquarters of the portfolio company.

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company manages a variety of risks
relating to its investments, including market risk and credit risk. Market risk is the risk of potential adverse changes to the values of investments because of changes in market conditions such as interest rate movements and volatility in
investment prices. Credit risk is the risk of default or non-performance by portfolio companies equivalent to the investments carrying amount. The Company is also exposed to credit risk related to maintaining all of its cash and cash
equivalents at a major financial institution.

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.

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 the period. 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 creditworthy counterparties.

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.

7. Credit facility and borrowings

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, the Company is only permitted to borrow such that its
asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. At March 31, 2010, the Companys asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 311%. On December 28, 2007, the Company amended and restated its Senior
Secured, Multi-Currency Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility). Under the amended Credit Facility, the lenders agreed to extend credit to the Company in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $545,000,000 outstanding, at any one
time, consisting of $400,000,000 in revolving loan commitments and $145,000,000 in term loan commitments. The Credit Facility has a stated maturity date of December 6, 2010 and is secured by substantially all of the assets in the Companys
portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents. The term loans under the facility mature on the termination date of the Credit Facility, have been fully drawn and, once repaid, may not be reborrowed. Subject to certain exceptions, the interest rate
payable under the facility is LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points with respect to revolving loans and LIBOR plus 150 basis points with respect to term loans. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that allows the Company to
increase the size of the credit facility under certain circumstances to a maximum of $1,000,000,000 with respect to the revolving loans and $395,000,000 with respect to the term loans. The Credit Facility is used to supplement the Companys
equity capital to make additional portfolio investments and for other general corporate purposes. See Note 12.

At
March 31, 2010, the Company had $253,500,000 drawn on the credit facility versus $296,000,000 at December 31, 2009. The weighted average annual interest cost for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was 1.53% and 1.66%,
respectively, exclusive of 0.175% in commitment fees and of other prepaid expenses related to establishing the credit facility.

The average debt outstanding on the credit facility during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $260,746,667 and
$432,311,196, respectively. The maximum amounts borrowed during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $314,000,000 and $433,680,000, respectively. The remaining amount available under the facility was $291,500,000 at
March 31, 2010.

At March 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all financial and operational
covenants required by the Credit Facility.

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 February 8, 2010, 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 August 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 May 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. The repurchase plan is expected to be in effect through the earlier of June 30, 2010 or until the approved number of shares has been repurchased. During the three months
ended March 31, 2009, the Company purchased a total of 501,364 shares of its common stock on the open market for $1,877,658, including brokerage commissions. There were no such purchases during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Since
inception of the repurchase plan through March 31, 2010, the Company has purchased 961,679 shares of its common stock on the open market for $5,425,900, including brokerage commissions. At March 31, 2010, the total number of remaining
shares authorized for repurchase was 1,794,971. The Company currently holds the shares it repurchased in treasury. See Note 12.

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. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the maximum
amount of potential future payments under such guarantees was $6,000,000, with an expiration of December 2011. Guarantees made on behalf of portfolio companies are considered in determining the fair value of the Companys investments. The
potential liability under such guarantees is reflected at fair value in the Companys schedules of investments.

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 payable were $253,500,000 and $247,796,000 at March 31, 2010 and $296,000,000 and
$287,120,000 at December 31, 2009, respectively.

12. Subsequent events

The Company has reviewed subsequent events occurring through the date that these financial statements were issued, and determined that no
subsequent events occurred requiring accrual or disclosure, except as disclosed below and elsewhere in these notes to financial statements.

On April 20, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to amend its Credit Facility. The amendment extends through
December 6, 2013 certain existing lenders commitments totaling $300 million, consisting of $200 million of revolving loan commitments and $100 million of term loan commitments. Subsequent to the amendment becoming effective, the Company
received a binding commitment from a new lender of $50 million, subject to definitive documentation. The addition of this revolving loan commitment would bring the total commitments that extend through December 2013 to $350 million. Non-extending
lender commitments of $245 million, consisting of $200 million of revolving loan commitments and $45 million of term loan commitments, mature on December 6, 2010 unless they are extended prior to that date. Pricing for outstanding borrowings
made by non-extending lenders will remain at LIBOR plus 0.875% with respect to revolving loans and LIBOR plus 1.50% with respect to term loans. The pricing for outstanding borrowings made by extending lenders and the new lender is reset to 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. On
May 5, 2010, the effective LIBOR spread under the Credit Facility was 2.34%. Additionally, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.50% on any unused portion of the commitments of the extending lenders and the new lender. The Credit
Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets in the Companys portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents. In connection with the amendment of the Credit Facility, the Company paid structuring and arrangement fees of approximately
$6.5 million. The Credit Facility includes an accordion feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility from its current level by up to an additional $300 million of revolving loan
commitments and $250 million of term loan commitments. The Company expects to approach new lenders to solicit additional commitments to its Credit Facility.

On May 5, 2010, the Companys Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.32 per share, payable on July 2, 2010 to
stockholders of record at the close of business on May 17, 2010.

On May 5, 2010, the Companys Board of
Directors approved an extension of the Companys share repurchase plan to June 30, 2011, with 1,794,971 shares remaining authorized for repurchase.

From April 1 to May 5, 2010, the Companys purchases of investments totaled approximately $58 million and sales and
repayments of investments totaled approximately $144 million. At May 5, 2010, borrowings under the Credit Facility were $245 million.



|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 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.

On July 25, 2005, we completed a private
placement of 35,366,589 shares of our common stock at a price of $15.00 per share that raised approximately $529 million in net proceeds. On July 2, 2007, we completed an initial public offering of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock at a
price of $16.00 per share that raised approximately $150 million in net proceeds.

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.



32



---

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 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, 2009. See Note 2 to the financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a description of recently issued accounting
pronouncements.

Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010:

Net investment income before Incentive Fees per share: $0.37

Net investment income per share: $0.36

Net investment income per share, as
adjusted1: $0.30

Dividends declared per share: $0.32

Net increase in net assets from operations per share: $0.54

Net investment income, as
adjusted1: $16.8 million

Net realized and unrealized gains: $10.2 million

Net increase in net assets from operations: $30.5 million

As adjusted amounts are non-GAAP basis financial measures that refer to GAAP basis amounts adjusted for incremental incentive management
fee expense that reflects the difference between the estimated amount of incentive management fees that we expect to incur at the end of the year with respect to the reported periods operating results versus the actual amount that we are
legally obligated to pay at the end of the reported period. Management believes that reflecting estimated 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. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of as adjusted amounts to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in Results of operationsSupplemental information below.

Portfolio and investment activity

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we invested approximately $16.4 million across five existing portfolio companies. The
new investments consisted primarily of senior loans secured by first liens ($1.5 million, or 9% of the total) or second liens ($5.0 million, or 31%), unsecured or subordinated debt securities ($4.5 million, or 27%) and equity securities ($5.4
million, or 33%). Additionally, we received proceeds from sales/repayments of investment principal of approximately $72.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

At March 31, 2010, our net portfolio of $811 million (at fair value) consisted of 55 portfolio companies and was invested 60% in
senior secured loans, 26% in unsecured or subordinated debt securities, 7% in equity investments, 6% in senior secured notes and 1% in cash and cash equivalents. Our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost was approximately $17.4
million. Our largest portfolio company investment by value was approximately $59.1 million and our five largest portfolio company investments by value comprised approximately 25% of our portfolio at March 31, 2010. At December 31, 2009,
our net portfolio of $853 million (at fair value) consisted of 57 portfolio companies and was invested 59% in senior secured loans, 30% in unsecured or subordinated debt securities, 6% in senior secured notes, 5% in equity investments and less than
1% in cash and cash equivalents. Our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost was approximately $18.5 million at December 31, 2009. Our largest portfolio company investment by value was approximately $56.1 million and our five
largest portfolio company investments by value comprised approximately 26% of our portfolio at December 31, 2009.

The
weighted average yield of the debt and income producing equity securities in our portfolio at their current cost basis was 11.6% at March 31, 2010 and 11.2% at December 31, 2009. The weighted average yields on our senior secured loans and
other debt securities at their current cost basis were 10.3% and 13.9%, respectively, at March 31, 2010, versus 9.4% and 14.2% at December 31, 2009. 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. Yields exclude common equity investments, preferred equity investments with no stated dividend rate, short-term investments,
cash and cash equivalents.

At March 31, 2010, 42% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates, such as
LIBOR, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, and 58% bore interest at fixed rates. The percentage of our total debt investments that bore floating rate interest based on an interest rate floor was 5% at March 31, 2010. At December 31,
2009, 41% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates and 59% bore interest at fixed rates. The percentage of our total debt investments that bore floating rate interest based on an interest rate floor was 5% at December 31,
2009.

The Advisor employs a grading system for our entire 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



|1 | Non-GAAP basis financial measure. See Results of operationsSupplemental information below.
|- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 1.45 at March 31, 2010 versus 1.46 at December 31, 2010. The following is a distribution
of the investment ratings of our portfolio companies at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

Results of operations

Results comparisons for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

Investment income

Investment income totaled $27,799,099 and $31,811,300, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, of which
$14,994,235 and $17,841,510 were attributable to interest and fees on senior secured loans, $11,998,827 and $13,185,401 to interest earned on other debt securities, $805,808 and $778,416 to dividends from preferred equity securities, and $229 and
$5,973 to interest earned on cash equivalents, respectively. The decrease in investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily reflects a reduction in the size of our portfolio due to sales and repayments, as well as the
impact of lower levels of LIBOR on interest income from our floating rate debt investments, which generally bear interest based on LIBOR. Total investments at their current cost basis were $957,362,059 at March 31, 2010, compared to
$1,251,186,989 at March 31, 2009. Three-month LIBOR averaged 0.26% during the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to 1.24% during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Expenses

Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $7,533,834 and $8,059,918, respectively, which consisted of
$4,322,471 and $4,748,218 in base management fees, $493,951 and zero in incentive management fees, $1,122,254 and $1,836,389 in interest expense and fees related to the Credit Facility, $398,664 and $346,794 in Advisor expenses, $257,723 and
$229,108 in administrative services, $203,266 and $232,050 in professional fees, $168,292 and $168,292 in amortization of debt issuance costs, $152,408 and $129,361 in insurance expenses, $95,837 and $95,292 in director fees and $318,968 and
$274,414 in other expenses, respectively. The decrease in base management fees reflects a decline in the quarterly portfolio values on which the fees are paid (in arrears). The



35



---

increase in incentive management fees is due to continued strong investment earnings, without the substantial net capital depreciation (including net realized and unrealized gains and losses)
that had occurred in the prior period. The decrease in interest expense and fees related to the Credit Facility is mainly a result of reduced borrowing levels and lower prevailing levels of LIBOR. Total borrowings were $253,500,000 at March 31,
2010, compared to $421,500,000 at March 31, 2009.

Net investment income

Net investment income was $20,265,265 and $23,751,382 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. Net investment income, as adjusted,2totaled
$16,764,179 and $19,134,617, or $0.30 per share and $0.35 per share, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The decrease is primarily a result of a decline in interest income, which was partially offset by a decrease
in interest and other expenses.

Net realized gain or loss

Net realized loss of $(42,363,323) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was the result of $(42,915,060) in net losses realized
from the disposition or restructuring of our investments and $551,737 in net gains realized on foreign currency transactions. Net realized loss on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2010 resulted primarily from the restructuring
of our investments in Penton Media Inc. and Arclin US Holdings Inc. Nearly the entire net realized loss on investments represents amounts that had been reflected in unrealized depreciation on investments in prior periods. Foreign currency gains
mainly represent gains on forward currency contracts used to hedge our investments denominated in foreign currencies. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net realized gain was $2,128,328.

Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the change in net unrealized depreciation was a decrease (increase) in net
unrealized depreciation of $52,581,109 and $(29,946,780), respectively. The decrease in net unrealized depreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was comprised of a decrease (increase) in net unrealized depreciation on investments
of $54,045,037 and on foreign currency translation of $(1,463,928). The decrease in net unrealized depreciation on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes $42,490,639 relating to reversals of prior periods net
unrealized depreciation as a result of investment restructurings and dispositions. The decrease in net unrealized depreciation during the first quarter of 2010 was primarily a result of the reversals described above and improved capital market
conditions. The valuations of our investments were favorably impacted by market-wide decreases in interest yields, as well as increases in 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 March 31, 2009 was comprised of increases in net
unrealized depreciation on investments of $(29,258,527) and on foreign currency translation of $(688,253).

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 March 31, 2010 and 2009 was an increase of $30,483,051 and a decrease of $(4,067,070), respectively. The net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations, as
adjusted,2for the three months ended March 31, 2010
and 2009 was an increase of $26,981,965 and a decrease of $(8,683,835), respectively. As compared to the prior period, the increase primarily reflects the decrease in net unrealized depreciation on investments, net of realized gains and losses, for
the three months ended March 31, 2010.

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. 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 estimate of each quarters incremental Incentive Fee that we expect we will
become legally obligated to pay at the end of the year. Prior year amounts are estimated in the same manner. 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 three months ended March 31, 2010, 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 of selected portfolio company investments or repayments of principal.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $60,967,798. Our primary sources of cash
from operating activities during the period consisted of a net increase in net assets from operations of $30,483,051 and sales/repayments of investments (net of purchases) of $56,234,734.

We used $59,551,914 for financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2010, consisting of $17,051,914 of dividend
distributions and $42,500,000 of net repayments under our Credit Facility.

Our senior secured, multi-currency Credit Facility
provides us with $545,000,000 in total availability, consisting of $400,000,000 in revolving loan commitments and $145,000,000 in term loan commitments. Subject to certain conditions, we have the ability in the future to seek additional commitments
from new and existing lenders up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,000,000,000 with respect to revolving loans and $395,000,000 with respect to term loans. The interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Credit Facility is generally LIBOR
plus 87.5 basis points with respect to revolving loans and LIBOR plus 150 basis points with respect to term loans. The term loans have been fully drawn and mature on December 6, 2010, the termination date of the Credit Facility, and term loans,
once repaid, may not be reborrowed. The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets in our portfolio,

including cash and cash equivalents. At March 31, 2010, we had $253,500,000 drawn and outstanding under the Credit Facility, with $291,500,000 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 other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness,
and restrictions on certain payments and issuance of debt. See Recent developments below.

At March 31, 2010,
we had $7,251,627 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 $1 billion 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 February 8, 2010, 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.

Contractual obligations

A summary of our significant contractual payment obligations for the repayment of outstanding borrowings under our Credit
Facility at March 31, 2010 is as follows:

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. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the maximum amount of potential future payments under
such guarantees was $6,000,000, with an expiration of December 2011. Guarantees made on behalf of portfolio companies are considered in determining the fair value of the Companys investments.

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 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 its 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).

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 three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, dividends reinvested pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan
totaled $1,020,149 and zero, 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 is treated as taxable income when received and accordingly, distributed to stockholders. For financial reporting purposes, such fees are recorded as unearned income and accreted/amortized over the life of the respective investment. For the
three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, these fees totaled $27,500 and zero, respectively. We anticipate earning additional upfront fees in the future and such fees may cause our taxable income to exceed our GAAP income, although the
differences are expected to be temporary in nature.

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 portion of such dividend is paid in cash (which portion can be as low as 10% for our taxable years ending on or before
December 31, 2011) and certain requirements are met, the entire distribution would be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Recent developments

On April 20, 2010, we entered into an agreement to amend our Credit Facility. The amendment extends through December 6, 2013
certain existing lenders commitments totaling $300 million, consisting of $200 million of revolving loan commitments and $100 million of term loan commitments. Subsequent to the amendment becoming effective, we received a binding commitment
from a new lender of $50 million, subject to definitive documentation. The addition of this revolving loan commitment would bring the total commitments that extend through December 2013 to $350 million. Non-extending lender commitments of $245
million, consisting of $200 million of revolving

loan commitments and $45 million of term loan commitments, mature on December 6, 2010 unless they are extended prior to that date. Pricing for outstanding borrowings made by non-extending
lenders will remain at LIBOR plus 0.875% with respect to revolving loans and LIBOR plus 1.50% with respect to term loans. The pricing for outstanding borrowings made by extending lenders and the new lender is reset to 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. On May 5, 2010, the
effective LIBOR spread under the Credit Facility was 2.34%. Additionally, we are required to pay a commitment fee of 0.50% on any unused portion of the commitments of the extending lenders and the new lender. The Credit Facility is secured by
substantially all of the assets in our portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents. In connection with the amendment of the Credit Facility, we paid structuring and arrangement fees of approximately $6.5 million. The Credit Facility includes
an accordion feature that allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility from its current level by up to an additional $300 million of revolving loan commitments and $250 million of term loan commitments. We
expect to approach new lenders to solicit additional commitments to our Credit Facility

On May 5, 2010, our Board of
Directors declared a dividend of $0.32 per share, payable on July 2, 2010 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 17, 2010.

On May 5, 2010, our Board of Directors approved an extension of our share repurchase plan to June 30, 2011, with 1,794,971
shares remaining authorized for repurchase.

From April 1 to May 5, 2010, our purchases of investments totaled
approximately $58 million and sales and repayments of investments totaled approximately $144 million. At May 5, 2010, borrowings under our Credit Facility were $245 million.

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 March 31, 2010, 42% 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 March 31, 2010, the
percentage of our total debt investments that bore floating rate interest based on an interest rate floor was 5%. 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 March 31, 2010 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 $8,100,000, or $0.14 per
share, in the value of our net assets at March 31, 2010 and a corresponding 100 basis point decrease in LIBOR and U.S. Treasury yields would cause an increase of approximately $7,900,000, or $0.14 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 months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, 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.
