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, or 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 (the Offering) of 35,366,589 shares of its common stock, par value $.001 per share (the Common Stock), at a price of $15.00 per
share. Net proceeds from the Offering of $529,333,799 reflect the payment of a placement fee of $507,407 and legal fees and other offering costs of $657,639.

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 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, 2006, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on
March 29, 2007.

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, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or one or more
broker-dealers or market makers. However, debt investments with remaining maturities within 60 days are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market
quotations are not readily available 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
many of the investments in its portfolio, the Company expects to value many 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 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 the differences could be material.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With respect to the Companys investments for which market quotations are not readily available, 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 valued by the investment professionals of BlackRock Kelso Capital Advisors LLC, the
Companys investment advisor (the Investment Advisor), responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (ii) | Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management;
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | To the extent determined by the audit committee of the Board of Directors, independent valuation firms engaged by the Board of Directors conduct independent appraisals and review
managements preliminary valuations and their own independent assessment;
| | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iv) | The audit committee of the Board of Directors reviews the preliminary valuations of the investment professionals, senior management and independent valuation firms; and
| | ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (v) | 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 Investment Advisor, the
respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The types of factors that the Company may
take into account in fair value pricing its investments include, as relevant, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, the markets in which
the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded securities and other relevant factors. Determination of fair values involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, these notes to the financial statements express the
uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on the financial statements.

The carrying value of the Companys financial instruments approximate fair value. The carrying value of receivables, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying
value of the Companys credit facility payable approximates fair value because it bears interest at a variable rate, based on current market.



|(b) | Cash equivalents include short-term investments in money market instruments with remaining maturities when purchased of three months or less.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



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



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



|(e) | Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is not accrued if collection is deemed doubtful or
the related investment is in default. For loans and debt securities with contractual payment-in-kind (PIK) interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the loan balance and which generally becomes due at maturity,
PIK interest is not accrued if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not collectible. 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. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(f) | Organizational costs of the Company were expensed as incurred. Offering costs were charged against paid-in capital.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(g) | The Company has qualified and elected and intends to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Code, and,
among other things, has made and intends to continue to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders which will relieve the Company from federal income and excise taxes. Therefore, no provision has been recorded for federal income or excise
taxes.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 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).

In accordance with GAAP, book and tax basis differences relating to distributions to stockholders and other permanent book
and tax differences are reclassified to capital in excess of par. In addition, the character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP.

The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for
reinvestment of distributions on behalf of stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Board of Directors authorizes, and the Company declares, a cash dividend, then stockholders who have not opted out
of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock, rather than receiving the cash dividends.



|(i) | 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. Risks may arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contract.

| | (ii) | purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expensesat the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company isolates that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the
fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of investments held at period end. Similarly, the Company isolates the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of portfolio
investments sold during the period.

Investments denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions may
involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin, including unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.



|(k) | Debt issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the credit facility using the straight line method, which closely approximates the effective yield method.

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

In July 2006,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the impact of a tax position, and if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the
position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the last day of the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2006, which is March 31, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Companys
financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on its financial statements. At this time, the impact to the Companys financial statements has not been determined.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities (SFAS 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation
and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of SFAS 159 are effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159 on its financial statements. At this time, the impact to the Companys financial statements has not been determined.

3. Agreements and related party transactions

The
Company has entered into an Investment Management Agreement (the Management Agreement) with the Investment Advisor, under which the Investment 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 Investment Advisor receives a base management fee (the Management Fee) from the Company at an annual rate of 2.0%
of the Companys total assets, including any assets acquired with the proceeds of leverage. For services rendered under the Management Agreement during the period commencing from July 25, 2005, the closing of the Offering (the
Closing), through July 25, 2006, the Management Fee was payable monthly in arrears. For services rendered under the Management Agreement after that time, the Management Fee is paid quarterly in arrears.

The Investment Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its rights to receive one-half of the amount of the Management Fee the Investment Advisor would
otherwise be entitled to receive from the Company until the first date on which 90% of the assets of the Company are invested in portfolio companies in accordance with the Companys investment objective, excluding investments in cash, cash
equivalents, U.S. Government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less from the date of investment, or the first anniversary of the Closing, whichever is sooner (the Ramp-Up Date). The Ramp-Up
Date occurred on July 25, 2006. Thereafter, the Investment Advisor has agreed to waive, until such time as the Company has completed an initial public offering of its Common Stock and listed its Common Stock on a national securities exchange or
market (collectively, the Public Market Event), one-quarter of the amount of the Management Fee the Investment Advisor would otherwise be entitled to receive from the Company. In addition, the Investment Advisor has agreed to
(a) waive Management Fees for any calendar year in excess of a certain maximum until the earlier of (i) such time as the Company has completed the Public Market Event or (ii) the fourth anniversary of the Companys inception of
operations and (b) waive Management Fees in excess of a certain maximum during the fifth year of the Companys operations unless the Company has completed the Public Market Event.

For the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Investment Advisor earned $2,769,806, in base management fees, net of the waiver provision, from the
Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Investment Advisor earned $1,332,439 in such fees.

The Management Agreement
provides that the Investment Advisor or its affiliates may be entitled to an incentive management fee (the Carried Interest) under certain circumstances. The determination of the Carried Interest, as described in more detail below, will
result in the Investment Advisor or its affiliates receiving no Carried Interest payments if returns to Company stockholders, as described in more detail below, do not meet an 8.0% annualized rate of return and will result in the Investment Advisor
or its affiliates receiving less than the full amount of the Carried Interest percentage until returns to stockholders exceed an approximate 13.3% annualized rate of return.

##### Table of Contents

For the period beginning on the Ramp-Up Date to the beginning of the calendar quarter in which the Public
Market Event occurs, the Company has paid and, assuming the Companys performance continues to exceed the hurdle rate, will pay the Investment Advisor Carried Interest equal to the amount by which the aggregate cumulative distributions and
amounts distributable to stockholders out of taxable net income (including realized capital gain) exceeds the cumulative combination of realized capital loss and net unrealized capital depreciation, if any, through the period of determination. The
amount of the excess described in this paragraph is referred to as the pre-offering excess amount.

The Carried Interest for this period
equals 50% of the pre-offering excess amount, until the cumulative Carried Interest payments for this period equals 20% of the pre-offering excess amount distributed or distributable to stockholders. Thereafter, the Carried Interest for this period
equals an amount such that the cumulative Carried Interest payments to the Investment Advisor during this period equal 20% of the pre-offering excess amount.

For the period beginning on the first day of the calendar quarter in which the Public Market Event occurs and ending on the first anniversary of this date, assuming the Companys performance exceeds the hurdle
rate, the Company will pay the Investment Advisor Carried Interest equal to the amount by which the aggregate distributions and amounts distributable to stockholders out of taxable net income (including realized capital gains) exceeds the
combination of (1) realized capital loss occurring during the period and (2) net unrealized capital depreciation, if any, occurring during the period. The amount of the excess described in this paragraph is referred to as the transition
period excess amount.

The Carried Interest for this period will equal 50% of the transition period excess amount, until the cumulative
Carried Interest payments for this period equals 20% of the transition period excess amount distributed or distributable to stockholders. Thereafter, the Carried Interest for this period will equal an amount such that the cumulative Carried Interest
payments to the Investment Advisor during this period equal 20% of the sum of the transition period excess amount.

For each trailing four
quarter period beginning on the last day of the calendar quarter in which the first anniversary of the Public Market Event occurs, assuming the Companys performance exceeds the hurdle rate, the Company will pay the Investment Advisor Carried
Interest if the aggregate distributions and amounts distributable to stockholders out of taxable net income (including realized capital gains) exceed the combination of (i) realized capital loss occurring during the period and
(ii) unrealized capital depreciation, if any, occurring during the period. The amount of the excess described in this paragraph is referred to as the post-offering quarterly excess amount.

The Carried Interest for this period will equal 50% of the post-offering quarterly excess amount, until the cumulative Carried Interest payments for this
period equals 20% of the post-offering quarterly excess amount distributed or distributable to stockholders. Thereafter, the Carried Interest for this period will equal an amount such that the cumulative Carried Interest payments to the Interest
Advisor during this period equal 20% of the sum of the postoffering quarterly excess amount.

In addition to the foregoing, the amount of
any Carried Interest payable from realized capital gains for any specified period will not exceed the amount permitted by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 as interpreted from time to time by the SEC and its staff. As currently interpreted, the
amount of Carried Interest payable from realized capital gain for any specified period is 20% of the Companys realized capital gains for the period computed net of realized capital losses for the period (but excluding any realized capital loss
that results from the conversion of unrealized capital depreciation from a prior period into a realized capital loss in the current period) and unrealized capital depreciation for the period.

7. Credit agreement and borrowings

On December 6, 2006, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) and, on February 8,
2007, completed certain amendments thereto. Under the amended Credit Agreement, the lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Company in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $400 million at any one time outstanding. The Credit Agreement is
a four-year revolving facility (with 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. Subject to certain exceptions, the interest
rate payable under the Credit Agreement is 87.5 basis points over LIBOR. The Company has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for
similar revolving credit facilities, including covenants related to: (a) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (b) limitations on certain investments, (c) limitations on certain restricted payments,
(d) maintaining a certain minimum stockholders equity, (e) maintaining a ratio of total assets (less total liabilities) to total indebtedness, of the Company and its subsidiaries, of not less than 2.0:1.0, (f) maintaining
minimum liquidity, and (g) limitations on the creation or existence of agreements that prohibit liens on certain properties of the Company and its subsidiaries. In addition to the asset coverage ratio described above, borrowings under the
Credit Agreement (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. The Credit Agreement also
includes an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the size of the credit facility to a maximum of $1 billion under certain circumstances. The Credit Agreement is used to supplement the Companys equity capital to
make additional portfolio investments and for other general corporate purposes.

At March 31, 2007, the Company had $300,000,000 drawn
on the revolving credit facility versus $164,000,000 at December 31, 2006. The weighted average annual interest cost for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was 6.77%, 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 was $220,484,436 during the three months
ended March 31, 2007. The maximum amount borrowed during this period was $301,000,000. The remaining amount available under the facility was $100,000,000 at March 31, 2007 versus $61,000,000 at December 31, 2006.

At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, the Company was in compliance with all financial and operational covenants required by
the Credit Agreement.

On April 16, 2007, the Company increased commitments under the Credit Agreement to $500 million until
October 15, 2007, on which date total commitments will revert to $400 million.

8. Commitments and contingencies

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.

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 U.S. companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Government securities and high-quality debt
investments that mature in one year or less.

##### Table of Contents

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, less a placement fee of $507,407 and legal fees and other offering costs of $657,639. We received approximately $529.3 million in net proceeds from this offering.

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 for such
companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make. In the past two years, the senior secured loan market has experienced dramatic growth in new issuance along with narrowing interest
rate spreads. These conditions have led to the general weakening of loan covenants and have driven traditional senior lenders to pursue opportunities in the subordinated loan market. We expect these trends to continue and, as a result, the
environment for investments in middle-market companies should remain very competitive. Despite these conditions, we expect to be able to continue to utilize our debt and equity capital to grow our long-term investment portfolio. We intend to
maintain our disciplined investment process, selectively participating in transactions when our assessment of risk and reward indicates a favorable opportunity.

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. The SEC recently adopted new rules under the 1940 Act to expand the definition of eligible portfolio company to include all
private companies and companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange. The new rules also will 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. The new rules became effective November 30, 2006. As a result of these new rules, we are no longer required to determine the eligibility of a portfolio company by reference
to whether or not it has outstanding marginable securities.

In addition to the adoption of the rules described above, the SEC also
proposed for comment a rule that would include as eligible portfolio companies certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange, as long as their public float and/or market capitalization is below a
specified level. We will continue to monitor closely any developments with respect to the definition of an eligible portfolio company and intend to adjust our investment focus as needed to comply with and/or take advantage of the new rules, as well
as any other regulatory, legislative, administrative or judicial actions in this area.

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

During the first year of our operations (through July 2006), the Investment Advisor agreed to waive its right to receive one-half of the base management fee the Investment Advisor would otherwise have been entitled to
receive from us. Thereafter, the Investment Advisor waived one-quarter of the amount of the base management fee the Investment Advisor would otherwise have been entitled to receive from us. All of the fee waivers will terminate upon completion of an
initial public offering of our common stock.

Additionally, the management agreement provides that the Investment Advisor or its affiliates
may be entitled to an incentive fee under certain circumstances. The determination of the incentive fee will result in the Investment Advisor or its affiliates receiving no incentive fee payments if returns to our stockholders do not meet an 8.0%
annualized rate of return and will result in the Investment 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. The
determination of the incentive fee is subject to any applicable limitations under the 1940 Act and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.

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. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes
to the financial statements.

Valuation of portfolio investments

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent
pricing service or one or more broker-dealers or market makers. However, debt investments with remaining maturities within 60 days are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus



30



---

##### Table of Contents

amortized premium, which approximates fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value
as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. Because we expect that there will not be a readily available market value for many of the investments in our portfolio, we expect to value many of our portfolio
investments at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of our Board of Directors using a consistently applied valuation process in accordance with a documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by our Board of
Directors. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a
readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

With respect to investments for which
market quotations are not readily available, our Board of Directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the Investment Advisor
responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | to the extent determined by the audit committee of our Board of Directors, independent valuation firms engaged by our Board of Directors conduct independent
appraisals and review managements preliminary valuations and their own independent assessment;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the audit committee of our Board of Directors reviews the preliminary valuations of the investment professionals, senior management and independent valuation firms;
and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



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

The types of factors that we may take into
account in determining the fair value of our investments include, as relevant, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, the markets in which
the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded securities and other relevant factors.

Determination of fair value
involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on the financial statements.

Revenue recognition

We record interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt securities with contractual PIK interest, which
represents contractual interest accrued and added to the loan balance and generally due at maturity, we do not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not collectible. 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, we record any prepayment fees and unamortized loan origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees as interest income. We record dividend income on the
ex-dividend date.

With respect to the dividends paid to stockholders, income from origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other
upfront fees associated with investments in portfolio companies in which the Investment Advisor on our behalf provides significant services to the portfolio company in connection with making the investment is treated as taxable income and
accordingly, distributed to stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, these fees totaled $1,293,750. 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.

Net realized gains or losses and net change in unrealized
appreciation or depreciation

We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or
sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees and prepayment fees. Realized gains and losses are computed using the
specific identification method. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in



31

##### Table of Contents

portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when gains or
losses are realized.

Federal income taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and, among other things, have made and intend to make the requisite distributions to our stockholders to relieve us from federal income and excise
taxes. In order to qualify as a RIC, we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, to our stockholders. To avoid federal excise taxes, we must distribute annually at least 98% of
our income (both ordinary income and net capital gains).

Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently
aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.

Portfolio and investment
activity

During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we closed a number of new investments in portfolio companies. We attribute our
ability to have made these investments to the investment platform of our Investment Advisor, favorable market conditions and access to additional financing through the use of our credit facility. During the quarter, we invested approximately $213.9
million across 9 new and 2 existing portfolio companies. The new investments consisted primarily of senior loans secured by second liens ($79.8 million, or 37% of the total) and first liens ($2.0 million, or 1%), subordinated debt/corporate notes
($106.0 million, or 50%) and equity securities ($26.1 million, or 12%). Additionally, we received proceeds from sales/repayments of principal of approximately $16.5 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.

At March 31, 2007, our net portfolio of $960.4 million (at value) consisted of 55 portfolio companies and was invested 67% in senior secured loans,
27% in subordinated debt/corporate notes, 5% in equity investments and 1% in cash, cash equivalents and foreign currency. Our average portfolio company investment by value was approximately $17.4 million. Our largest portfolio company investment by
value was approximately $44.5 million and our five largest portfolio company investments by value comprised approximately 22% of our portfolio at March 31, 2007. At December 31, 2006, our net portfolio of $757.3 million (at value)
consisted of 49 portfolio companies and was invested 71% in senior secured loans, 26% in subordinated debt/corporate notes, 3% in equity investments and less than 1% in cash, cash equivalents and foreign currency. Our average portfolio company
investment by value was approximately $15 million at December 31, 2006. Our largest portfolio company investment by value was approximately $42.2 million and our five largest portfolio company investments by value comprised approximately 25% of
our portfolio at December 31, 2006.

Our weighted average yield on invested capital was 12.6% at March 31, 2007 versus 12.5% at
December 31, 2006. The weighted average yields on our subordinated debt/corporate notes and senior secured loans were 13.7% and 12.3%, respectively, at March 31, 2007, versus 13.2% and 12.5%, respectively, at December 31, 2006. 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, weighted by the amortized cost of the
respective investment when averaged. Yields on invested capital exclude common equity investments, closed-end funds, short-term investments, cash and cash equivalents.

At March 31, 2007, 63% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates, such as LIBOR, EURIBOR, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, and 37% bore interest at fixed rates. At December, 2006, 69%
of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates and 31% bore interest at fixed rates.

The Investment Advisor employs a
grading system for our entire portfolio. The Investment 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. The Investment Advisor assigns only one loan grade to each portfolio company for all loan investments in that 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 Investment Advisors expectations and
whose risk factors are neutral to favorable to those at the time of the original investment. As of March 31, 2007, the Investment Advisor rated approximately 82% of our portfolio companies representing approximately 88% of the value of our
total investments as Grade 1.

Grade 2: Investments in portfolio companies whose performance is below the Investment Advisors
expectations and that require closer monitoring; however, no loss of investment return (interest and/or dividends) or principal is expected. As of March 31, 2007, the Investment Advisor rated approximately 16% of our portfolio companies
representing approximately 11% of the value of our total investments as Grade 2.



32



---

##### Table of Contents

Grade 3: Investments in portfolio companies whose performance is below the Investment
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 will generally be out of compliance with debt covenants
and will be unlikely to make debt repayments on their original schedule. As of March 31, 2007, the Investment Advisor rated none of our portfolio companies as Grade 3.

Grade 4: Investments in portfolio companies whose performance is materially below the Investment 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. As of March 31, 2007, the Investment Advisor rated approximately 2% of
our portfolio companies representing approximately 2% of the value of our total investments as Grade 4.

The Investment Advisor monitors
and, when appropriate, changes the investment ratings assigned to each investment in our portfolio. In connection with our valuation process, the Investment Advisor and our Board of Directors reviews these investment ratings on a quarterly basis.
Our average investment rating was 1.15 at March 31, 2007.

Results of operations

Results comparisons are for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006.

Operating income

Investment
income totaled $25,052,230 and $8,733,410, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006, of which $18,361,445 and $4,209,775, respectively, were attributable to interest and fees on senior secured loans,
$162,636 and $4,125,906, respectively, to interest earned on short-term investments and cash equivalents, $6,254,177 and $143,811, respectively, to interest earned on subordinated debt/corporate notes, $260,477 and $151,918, respectively, to
dividends from preferred stock and closed-end funds and $13,495 and $102,000 respectively, to other income. The increase in operating income compared to the prior period reflects the growth of our portfolio and the transition of the portfolio from
temporary to long-term investments.

Operating expenses

Net operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 were $11,037,857 and $2,053,421, respectively, which
consisted of $2,769,806 and $1,332,439, respectively, in base management fees (net of base management fee waivers of $923,269 and $1,332,439, respectively), $3,692,649 and $0, respectively, in incentive management fees owed to the Investment
Advisor, $218,703 and $288,345, respectively, in administrative services expenses, $146,591 and $213,917, respectively, in professional fees, $63,505 and $70,188, respectively, in director fees, $196,093 and $77,957, respectively, in Investment
Advisor expenses, $40,931 and $36,539, respectively, in insurance expenses, $3,714,805 and $0, respectively, in interest expense and fees related to the Credit Facility, $62,705 and $0, respectively, in amortization of debt issuance costs, and
$132,069 and $34,036, respectively, in other expenses. The increase in operating expenses compared to the prior period reflects the growth of our portfolio, the incurrence of incentive management fees to the Investment Advisor, and the incurrence of
borrowing costs under our credit facility.

Net investment income

Net investment income was $14,014,373 and $6,679,989, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 (which amounts
would have been $13,091,104 and $5,347,550, respectively, without base management fee waivers).

Net realized loss

Net realized loss on investments of $192,875 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was the result of $22,027 in net gains realized
from the disposition of investments offset by $214,902 in net losses realized on foreign currency transactions during the year. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, net realized loss on investments was $405,166 resulting primarily from
disposition of two subordinated debt/corporate notes positions.

Net unrealized appreciation

For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006, the change in net unrealized appreciation was $3,206,782 and $846,233,
respectively, which was comprised of an increase in net unrealized appreciation on investments of $3,177,312 and $834,193, respectively, a decrease in net unrealized depreciation on cash equivalents of $0 and $12,040, respectively, and net
unrealized appreciation on foreign currency translations of $29,470 and $0, respectively.

Net increase in net assets resulting from
operations

The net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and
March 31, 2006 was $17,028,280 and $7,121,056, respectively. As compared to the prior period, the increase reflects the growth of our portfolio and the transition of the portfolio from temporary to long-term investments.

Financial condition, liquidity and capital resources

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we generated operating cash flows primarily from interest earned and fees received on senior secured loans and subordinated debt/corporate notes, as well as from interest earned on
temporary investments and dividends received from equity holdings. In the future, we may securitize a portion of our investments in senior secured loans or other assets.

Our primary uses of funds for operations during the three months ended March 31, 2007 consisted of investments in portfolio companies and payment of fees and other operating expenses incurred by the Company.

Our operating activities resulted in a net use of cash of $137,745,737 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

In March 2006, our Board of Directors authorized the issuance and sale from time to time of up to $2.5 million in aggregate net asset value of
shares of our common stock to certain existing and future officers and employees of the Investment Advisor at a price per share equal to the greater of $15.00 or our then current determined net asset value per share at the time of sale. Pursuant to
this authorization, in April 2006 we issued and sold to certain employees of the Investment Advisor in a private placement 54,000 shares of common stock for aggregate proceeds of $810,000. Also pursuant to this authorization, during the three months
ended March 31, 2007, we issued and sold to certain officers and employees of the Investment Advisor in private placements a total of 89,604 shares of common stock for aggregate proceeds of approximately $1,354,000.

In August 2006, our Board of Directors authorized the issuance and sale from time to time of an indeterminate number of shares of our common stock
to the Investment Advisor at a price per share equal to our most recently determined net asset value per share at the time of sale, such shares to be used by the Investment Advisor for employee compensation and other purposes. Pursuant to this
authorization, during the three months ended March 31, 2007, we issued and sold to the Investment Advisor in private placements 184,300 shares of common stock for aggregate proceeds of approximately $2,791,000.

On December 6, 2006, we closed on our credit facility, and, on February 8, 2007, completed certain amendments thereto. The facility is a $400
million, multi-currency, four year, senior secured credit facility with a group of lenders. It provides us with the ability to seek additional commitments to an aggregate amount not to exceed $1 billion, subject to certain conditions. The credit
facility has a stated maturity of December 6, 2010 and the interest rate applicable to borrowings thereunder is LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points. As a BDC, we are permitted to issue senior securities only in amounts such that our asset coverage
equals at least 200% after each issuance of senior securities. At March 31, 2007, we had $300 million drawn and outstanding under the credit facility, with $100 million available to us.

Our financing activities resulted in a net inflow of cash of $140,039,902 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, primarily from borrowings under
our credit facility.

At March 31, 2007, we had $5,330,578 in cash and cash equivalents. In addition, we had $128,800 in foreign
currency at that date.

On March 6, 2007, we filed a Form N-2 registration statement with the SEC that would permit us, after it is
declared effective by the SEC, to raise capital through a public offering of our common stock. On April 13, 2007, we filed an amendment to that registration statement.

##### Table of Contents

On March 28, 2007, we filed a certificate of amendment to our articles of incorporation to increase
our authorized capital stock from 40 million shares of common stock to 100 million shares of common stock.

On April 16,
2007, we increased commitments under the credit facility to $500 million until October 15, 2007, on which date total commitments will revert to $400 million. We expect that our substantial debt capital resources will provide us with the
flexibility to take advantage of market opportunities when they arise.

On May 8, 2007, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of
$0.42 per share, payable on May 31, 2007 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 15, 2007.

Contractual
Obligations

A summary of our significant contractual payment obligations for the repayment of outstanding borrowings under our
Credit Facility at March 31, 2007 is as follows:



|                           |  |                                              |     |                  |   |           |  |           |   |               |   |     |  |   |

|(1) | At March 31, 2007, $100 million remained unused under our Credit Facility. As discussed above, on April 16, 2007 we increased commitments under the credit facility to $500
million until October 15, 2007, on which date total commitments will revert to $400 million.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have entered into
several contracts under which we have future commitments. Pursuant to an investment management agreement, the Investment Advisor manages our day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory services to us. Payments under the investment
management agreement are equal to a percentage of the value of our gross assets and an incentive fee. Under our administration agreement, the Administrator provides us with administrative services, facilities and personnel. Payments under the
administration agreement are equal to an allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations to us, including rent and our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our officers and their
respective staffs. Pursuant to various other agreements, subsidiaries of PNC provide custodian services, administrative and accounting services, transfer agency and compliance support services to us. Payments under such agreements are generally
equal to a percentage of our average net assets plus reimbursement of reasonable expenses, and a base fee. Either party may terminate each of the investment management agreement, administration agreement and such other agreements without penalty
upon not less than 60 days written notice to the other. See Note 3 to our financials statements for more information regarding these agreements.

Off-Balance sheet financing

We had no off-balance sheet contractual obligations or
arrangements at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, or FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires that we recognize in our financial statements the impact of a tax position, and whether that position is
more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the last day of the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2006, which is March 31,
2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 157,Fair Value Measurements, or SFAS 157, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157
are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on financial statements. At this time, the impact to our financial statements has not been determined.

##### Table of Contents

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, or SFAS 159, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value.
SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of SFAS 159 are effective
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159 on its financial statements. At this time, the impact to the Companys financial statements has not been determined.

Dividends

We intend to distribute
quarterly dividends to our stockholders. Our quarterly dividends are determined by our Board of Directors. 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 elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain our RIC status and obtain favorable RIC tax treatment, we
must distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. In order to
avoid certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we currently intend to distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of:



| |  |  | 98% of our ordinary income for the calendar year;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 98% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31st; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, although we currently intend to distribute realized net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of short-term capital
losses), if any, at least annually, out of the assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

We maintain an opt out dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, 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.

We
may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make dividends and distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these dividends and distributions from time to time. In addition, we may be limited in our ability
to make dividends and distributions due to the asset coverage test for borrowings when applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act and due to provisions in our existing and future credit facilities. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of
our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of favorable RIC tax treatment. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any dividends and distributions or dividends and distributions at a particular
level.

With respect to the dividends paid to stockholders, income from origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront
fees associated with investments in portfolio companies in which the Investment Advisor on our behalf provides significant services to the portfolio company in connection with making the investment is treated as taxable income and accordingly,
distributed to stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, these fees totaled $1,293,750. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, such fees totaled $320,000. 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

We are subject to financial market
risks, including changes in interest rates. At March 31, 2007, 63% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates, such as LIBOR, EURIBOR, 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.

To illustrate the potential impact of changes in interest rates,
we have performed the following analysis based on our March 31, 2007 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 $5,700,000, or $0.14 per share, in the value of our net assets at March 31, 2007 and a corresponding 100 basis point decrease in LIBOR and U.S. Treasury yields would cause an increase of approximately $5,700,000, 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 may also 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, 2007 and March 31, 2006, we did not engage in any interest
rate hedging activity.

We 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 our 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. Risks may arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms
of their contracts.

Details of open forward foreign currency contracts at March 31, 2007 and at December 31, 2006, respectively,
were as follows:

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.
