|(1) | The weighted average yield on loans and debt securities is
    computed as the (a) annual stated interest plus the annual
    amortization of loan origination fees, original issue discount,
    and market discount on accruing loans and debt securities less
    the annual amortization of loan origination costs, divided by
    (b) total loans and debt securities at value. At March 31,
    2006, and December 31, 2005, the cost and value of
    subordinated debt include the Class A equity interests in
    BLX and the guaranteed dividend yield on these equity interests
    is included in interest income. The weighted average yield is
    computed as of the balance sheet date.

|(2) | Unitranche debt is a single debt investment that is a blend of
    senior and subordinated debt terms.

|(3) | The total principal balance outstanding on loans and debt
    securities was $2,662.5 million and $2,216.3 million
    at March 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, respectively. The
    difference between principal and cost is represented by
    unamortized loan origination fees and costs, original issue
    discounts, and market discounts totaling $29.4 million and
    $27.2 million at March 31, 2006, and December 31,
    2005, respectively.

|(1) | The weighted average yield on the interest-bearing investments
    is computed as the (a) annual stated interest plus the
    annual amortization of loan origination fees, original issue
    discount, and market discount on accruing interest-bearing
    investments less the annual amortization of origination costs,
    divided by (b) total interest-bearing investments at value.
    The weighted average yield is computed as of the balance sheet
    date. Interest-bearing investments for the commercial real
    estate finance portfolio include all investments except for real
    estate owned and equity interests.

|(1) | The weighted average annual interest cost is computed as the (a)
    annual stated interest on the debt plus the annual amortization
    of commitment fees and other facility fees that are recognized
    into interest expense over the contractual life of the
    respective borrowings, divided by (b) debt outstanding on the
    balance sheet date.
|   
|(2) | The annual interest cost reflects the interest rate payable for
    borrowings under the revolving line of credit. In addition to
    the current interest rate payable, there were annual costs of
    commitment fees and other facility fees of $3.3 million at
    both March 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005.                                          
|   
|(3) | The annual interest cost for total debt includes the annual cost
    of commitment fees and other facility fees on the revolving line
    of credit regardless of the amount outstanding on the facility
    as of the balance sheet date.

|(1) | Standby letters of credit are issued under the Companys
    revolving line of credit that expires in September 2008.
    Therefore, unless a standby letter of credit is set to expire at
    an earlier date, it is assumed that the standby letters of
    credit will expire contemporaneously with the expiration of the
    Companys line of credit in September 2008.

Financial or other information presented for private finance
portfolio companies has been obtained from the portfolio
companies, and the financial information presented may represent
unaudited, projected or pro forma financial information, and
therefore may not be indicative of actual results. In addition,
the private equity industry uses financial measures such as
EBITDA or EBITDAM (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes,
Depreciation, Amortization and, in some instances, Management
fees) in order to assess a portfolio companys financial
performance and to value a portfolio company. EBITDA and EBITDAM
are not intended to represent cash flow from operations as
defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and
such information should not be considered as an alternative to
net income, cash flow from operations or any other measure of
performance prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.

|(1) | Investments funded for the three months ended March 31,
    2006, included a $150 million subordinated debt investment
    in Advantage Sales & Marketing, Inc. received in
    conjunction with the sale of Advantage as discussed below.                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
|   
|(2) | Includes a change in accrued or reinvested interest of
    $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
    2006, related to our investments in money market securities.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
|   
|(3) | The weighted average yield on interest-bearing investments is
    computed as the (a) annual stated interest plus the annual
    amortization of loan origination fees, original issue discount,
    and market discount on accruing interest-bearing investments
    less the annual amortization of loan origination costs, divided
    by (b) total interest-bearing investments at value. The
    weighted average yield is computed as of the balance sheet date.

|(2) | The weighted average yield on loans and debt securities is
    computed as the (a) annual stated interest plus the annual
    amortization of loan origination fees, original issue discount,
    and market discount on accruing loans and debt securities less
    the annual amortization of loan origination costs, divided by
    (b) total loans and debt securities at value. The weighted
    average yield is computed as of the balance sheet date.

|(1) | The weighted average yield on the interest-bearing investments
    is computed as the (a) annual stated interest plus the
    annual amortization of loan origination fees, original issue
    discount, and market discount on accruing interest-bearing
    investments less the annual amortization of origination costs,
    divided by (b) total interest-bearing investments at value.
    The weighted average yield is computed as of the balance sheet
    date. Interest-bearing investments for the commercial real
    estate finance portfolio include all investments except for real
    estate owned and equity interests.
|(2) | Principal collections related to investment repayments or sales
    for the year ended December 31, 2005, included
    $718.1 million related to the sale of our CMBS and CDO
    portfolio in May 2005.

|(1) | The weighted average annual interest cost is computed as the
    (a) annual stated interest on the debt plus the annual
    amortization of commitment fees and other facility fees that are
    recognized into interest expense over the contractual life of
    the respective borrowings, divided by (b) debt outstanding
    on the balance sheet date.
|   
|(2) | The annual interest cost reflects the interest rate payable for
    borrowings under the revolving line of credit. In addition to
    the current interest rate payable, there were annual costs of
    commitment fees and other facility fees of $3.3 million at
    March 31, 2006.                                                                      
|   
|(3) | The annual interest cost for total debt includes the annual cost
    of commitment fees and other facility fees on the revolving line
    of credit regardless of the amount outstanding on the facility
    as of the balance sheet date.

    credit that expires in September 2008. Therefore, unless a
    standby letter of credit is set to expire at an earlier date, we
    have assumed that the standby letters of credit will expire
    contemporaneously with the expiration of our line of credit in
    September 2008.

|(1) | Common stock, preferred stock, warrants, options, and equity
    interests are generally non-income producing and restricted. The
    principal amount for loans and debt securities and the number of
    shares of common stock and preferred stock is shown in the

|(2) | Other includes interest, dividend, or other income which was
    applied to the principal of the investment and therefore reduced
    the total investment. These reductions are also included in the
    Gross Reductions for the investment, as applicable.

|(4) | Gross reductions include decreases in the cost basis of
    investments resulting from principal collections related to
    investment repayments or sales, the exchange of one or more
    existing securities for one or more new securities and the
    movement of an existing portfolio company out of this category
    into a different category. Gross reductions also include net
    increases in unrealized depreciation or net decreases in
    unrealized appreciation.

    2006, and is therefore considered non-income producing. Loans or
    debt securities on non-accrual status at the end of the period
    may or may not have been on non-accrual status for the full
    period.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors


Investing in Allied Capital involves a number of significant
risks relating to our business and investment objective. As a
result, there can be no assurance that we will achieve our
investment objective.


Our portfolio of investments is illiquid.


Investing in private companies involves a high degree of
risk.


Substantially all of our portfolio investments are recorded
at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of
Directors and, as a result, there is uncertainty regarding the
value of our portfolio investments.




77



---



##### 







Economic recessions or downturns could impair our portfolio
companies and harm our operating results.




Our borrowers may default on their payments, which may have a
negative effect on our financial performance.


78



---



##### 





Our private finance investments may not produce current
returns or capital gains.


Our financial results could be negatively affected if a
significant portfolio investment fails to perform as
expected.


We borrow money, which magnifies the potential for gain or
loss on amounts invested and may increase the risk of investing
in us.




79



---



##### 



We may not borrow money unless we maintain asset coverage for
indebtedness of at least 200%, which may affect returns to
shareholders.


Changes in interest rates may affect our cost of capital and
net investment income.




We will continue to need additional capital to grow because
we must distribute our income.


Loss of regulated investment company tax treatment would
substantially reduce net assets and income available for debt
service and dividends.


80



---



##### 





There is a risk that our common stockholders may not receive
dividends or distributions.


We operate in a competitive market for investment
opportunities.


Our business depends on our key personnel.


81



---



##### 





Changes in the law or regulations that govern us could have a
material impact on us or our operations.


Our ability to invest in private companies may be limited in
certain circumstances.








Results may fluctuate and may not be indicative of future
performance.

Our common stock price may be volatile.

|(1) | The 2005 DCP I is an unfunded plan, as defined by the
    Internal Revenue Code of 1986, that provides for the deferral of
    compensation by our directors, employees, and consultants. In
    addition, we may make contributions to 2005 DCP I on
    compensation deemed ineligible for a 401(k) contribution. Our
    directors, employees, or consultants are eligible to participate
    in the plan at such time and for such period as designated by
    the Board of Directors. The 2005 DCP I is administered
    through a trust by a third-party trustee, and we fund this plan
    through cash contributions. Directors may choose to defer
    directors fees through the 2005 DCP I, and may choose
    to invest such deferred income in shares of our common stock. To
    the extent a director elects to invest in our common stock, the
    trustee of the 2005 DCP I will be required to use such
    deferred directors fees to purchase shares of our common
    stock in the market.
|   
|(2) | We have established a long-term incentive compensation program
    whereby we will generally determine an individual performance
    award for certain officers annually at the beginning of each
    year. The Compensation Committee may adjust the individual
    performance awards as needed, or make new awards as new officers
    are hired. In conjunction with the program, we instituted the
    2005 DCP II, which is an unfunded plan as defined by the
    Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that is administered through a
    trust by a third-party trustee. The individual performance
    awards are deposited in the trust in four equal installments,
    generally on a quarterly basis in the form of cash and the 2005
    DCP II requires the trustee to use the cash exclusively to
    purchase shares of our common stock in the market.
