SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) March 31, 2020 (in
thousands, except share amounts) Note 1. Organization Solar Senior Capital Ltd. (Solar Senior, the Company, SUNS, we, us, or
our), a Maryland corporation formed on December 16, 2010, is a closed-end, externally managed, non-diversified management investment company that has
elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). Furthermore, as the Company is an investment company, it continues to apply the guidance in
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a
regulated investment company (RIC), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). On January 28, 2011, Solar Senior was capitalized with initial equity of $2 and commenced operations. On February 24, 2011, Solar
Senior priced its initial public offering, selling 9.0 million shares, including the underwriters over-allotment, raising approximately $168,000 of net proceeds. Concurrent with this offering, our senior management team purchased an
additional 500,000 shares through a private placement, raising another $10,000. The Companys investment objective is to seek to
maximize current income consistent with the preservation of capital. We seek to achieve our investment objective by investing directly or indirectly in senior secured loans, including first lien, stretch-senior and second lien debt instruments, made
primarily to leveraged private middle-market companies whose debt is rated below investment grade, which the Company refers to collectively as senior loans. From time to time, we may also invest in public companies that are thinly
traded. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the value of the Companys net assets (including the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) will be directly or indirectly invested in senior loans. Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and include the accounts of the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the operations and financial condition for the periods presented. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts may
have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. Interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, they may not
include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ
materially. The current periods results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2020. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for the fair presentation of
financial statements, have been included.  13

SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued) March 31, 2020 (in
thousands, except share amounts)  The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Company are:  (a)
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date;  (b)
The Company conducts the valuation of its assets in accordance with GAAP and the 1940 Act. The Company
generally values its assets on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required. Investments for which market quotations are readily available on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the date of valuation. The Company may also obtain
quotes with respect to certain of its investments from pricing services or brokers or dealers in order to value assets. When doing so, management determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of
the investment. If determined adequate, the Company uses the quote obtained. Debt investments with maturities of 60 days or less shall each be valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which is expected to approximate fair
value, unless such valuation, in the judgment of Solar Capital Partners, LLC (the Investment Adviser), does not represent fair value, in which case such investments shall be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under
the direction of the Companys board of directors (the Board). Investments for which reliable market
quotations are not readily available or for which the pricing sources do not provide a valuation or methodology or provide a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Investment Adviser or the Board does not represent fair value, shall
be valued as follows: (i) each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment; (ii) preliminary valuations are discussed with senior management of the Investment
Adviser; (iii) independent valuation firms engaged by, or on behalf of, the Board will conduct independent appraisals and review the Investment Advisers preliminary valuations and make their own independent assessment for (a) each
portfolio investment that, when taken together with all other investments in the same portfolio company, exceeds 10% of estimated total assets, plus available borrowings, as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter, and (b) each
portfolio investment that is presently in payment default and the Investment Adviser does not expect to reach an agreement with the portfolio company in the subsequent quarter; (iv) the Board will discuss the valuations and determine the fair
value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser and, where appropriate, the respective independent valuation firm. The recommendation of fair value generally considers the following factors among others, as relevant: applicable market yields; the nature and
realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio companys ability to make payments; the portfolio companys earnings and discounted cash flow; the markets in which the issuer does business; and comparisons to publicly traded securities,
among others. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Company will
consider the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate the valuation. 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 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. Investments are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. However, in accordance with ASC 820-10, certain investments that qualify as investment companies in accordance with ASC 946, may be valued using net asset value as a practical expedient for fair value. 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  14

SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued) March 31, 2020 (in
thousands, except share amounts)  approach uses valuation approaches 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 we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant
and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, 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, and enterprise values, among other factors. When
available, broker quotations and/or quotations provided by pricing services are considered as an input in the valuation process. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, there has been no change to the Companys valuation approaches or
techniques and the nature of the related inputs considered in the valuation process. ASC Topic 820 classifies the inputs used to measure
these fair values into the following hierarchy: Level1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities, accessible by the Company at the measurement date. Level2: Quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices. Level3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The
exercise of judgment is based in part on our knowledge of the asset class and our prior experience.  (c)
Gains or losses on investments are calculated by using the specific identification method.  (d)
The Company records dividend income and interest, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of
discount, on an accrual basis. Loan origination fees, original issue discount, and market discounts are capitalized and we amortize such amounts into income using the effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan, any unamortized loan
origination fees are recorded as interest income. We record call premiums on loans repaid as interest income when we receive such amounts. Capital structuring fees, amendment fees, consent fees, and any other
non-recurring fee income as well as management fee and other fee income for services rendered, if any, are recorded as other income when earned.  (e)
The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Code pertaining to regulated investment
companies to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it of substantially all U.S. federal income taxes. 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. The Company will accrue excise tax on such estimated excess taxable income as appropriate.  (f)
Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder distributions and other permanent book and tax
differences are typically reclassified among the Companys capital accounts annually. In addition, the character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP.  15

Distributions to common stockholders are recorded as of the record date. The amount to be paid out as a
distribution is determined by the Board. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed or deemed distributed at least annually.  (h)
In accordance with Regulation S-X and ASC Topic
810Consolidation, the Company consolidates its interest in controlled investment company subsidiaries, financing subsidiaries and certain wholly-owned holding companies that serve to facilitate investment in portfolio companies. In
addition, the Company may also consolidate any controlled operating companies substantially all of whose business consists of providing services to the Company.  (i)
The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies against the U.S. dollar on the date of valuation. The Company will not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in
foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations would be included with the net unrealized gain or loss from investments. The Companys investments in
foreign securities, if any, may involve certain risks, including without limitation: foreign exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic risks, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the
investment. In addition, changes in the relationship of foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of these investments in terms of U.S. dollars and therefore the earnings of the Company.  (j)
In accordance with ASC 835-30, the Company reports origination and
other expenses related to certain debt issuances, if any, as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. Applicable expenses are deferred and amortized using either the effective interest method or the straight-line method
over the stated life. The straight-line method may be used on revolving facilities and/or when it approximates the effective yield method.  (k)
The Company records expenses related to shelf registration statements and applicable equity offering costs as
prepaid assets. These expenses are typically charged as a reduction of capital upon utilization or expensed, in accordance with ASC 946-20-25.  (l)
Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest cash payments will be collected. Such non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest are paid in cash, and in managements judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining principal and
interest obligations. Cash interest payments received on such investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending on managements judgment.  (m)
The Company defines cash equivalents as securities that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and
so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only securities with a maturity of three months or less would qualify, with limited exceptions. The Company believes
that certain U.S. Treasury bills, repurchase agreements and other high-quality, short-term debt securities would qualify as cash equivalents. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure
FrameworkChanges to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modify and eliminate certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in  16

after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted ASU 2018-13 and determined that the adoption has not had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and
disclosures. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The
amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met.
ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU
2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Note 3. Agreements Solar Senior has an Advisory Agreement with the Investment Adviser, under which the Investment Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, Solar Senior. For providing these services, the Investment Adviser receives a fee from Solar Senior,
consisting of two componentsa base management fee and a performance-based incentive fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of gross assets. For services rendered under the Advisory Agreement, the base management
fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. Base management fees for any partial month or quarter will be
appropriately pro-rated. For purposes of computing the base management fee, gross assets exclude temporary assets acquired at the end of each fiscal quarter for purposes of preserving investment flexibility in
the next fiscal quarter. Temporary assets include, but are not limited to, U.S. treasury bills, other short-term U.S. government or government agency securities, repurchase agreements or cash borrowings. The performance-based incentive fee has two parts, as follows: one is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income,
dividend income and any other income (other than fees for providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (excluding the performance-based incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments, if any, with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with pay-in-kind interest and zero-coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net
investment income does not include any realized capital gains or losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value
of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a hurdle of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized). The Company pays the Investment Adviser a performance-based incentive fee with respect to pre-incentive fee net investment income for each calendar quarter as follows:  

no performance-based incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our
pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle of 1.75%;  

50% of pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that
portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle but is less than 2.9167% in any calendar quarter (11.67% annualized); and  

20% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any,
that exceeds 2.9167% in any calendar quarter (11.67% annualized) will be payable to the Investment Adviser.  17

SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued) March 31, 2020 (in
thousands, except share amounts)  The second part of the performance-based incentive fee is determined and payable in arrears
as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and will equal 20% of the Companys cumulative realized capital gains less cumulative realized capital losses, unrealized
capital depreciation (unrealized depreciation on a gross investment-by-investment basis at the end of each calendar year) and all net capital gains upon which prior
performance-based capital gains incentive fee payments were previously made to the Investment Adviser. For financial statement purposes, the second part of the performance-based incentive fee is accrued based upon 20% of cumulative net realized
gains and net unrealized capital appreciation. No accrual was required for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. For the
three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 the Company recognized $1,104 and $1,156, respectively, in gross base management fees and $56 and $544, respectively, in gross performance-based incentive fees. For the three months ended
March 31, 2020 and 2019, $964 and $0, respectively, of such base management fees were waived. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, $56 and $536, respectively, of such performance-based incentive fees were waived. For the
three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no fees recaptured by the Investment Adviser. The below voluntary fee waivers were made at the Investment Advisers discretion and are subject to recapture by the Investment Adviser
and reimbursement by the Company under the conditions noted below. No fees will be recouped by the Investment Adviser if (i) for the period in which recoupment occurs, the ratio of operating expenses to average net assets, when considering the
reimbursement, exceeds the same ratio for the period in which the waiver occurred; (ii) for the period in which recoupment occurs, the annualized distribution rate cannot fall below the annualized distribution rate for the period in which the
waiver occurred; and (iii) recoupment can only occur within three years from the date of the waiver. The table below presents a summary of fees waived that may be subject to recoupment:  Three Months Ended

Solar Seniors behalf, managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which Solar Senior is required to provide such assistance. The Company typically reimburses the Administrator on a quarterly basis. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized expenses under the Administration Agreement of $367 and $396,
respectively. No managerial assistance fees were accrued or collected for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Note 4. Net Asset
Value Per Share At March 31, 2020, the Companys total net assets and net asset value per share were $234,140 and $14.59,

0.46 Note 6. Fair Value Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used
to measure fair value into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair
value hierarchy are as follows: Level1. Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on
unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access. Level2. Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not
active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following:  a)
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;  b)
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in
non-active markets;  19

SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued) March 31, 2020 (in
thousands, except share amounts)  c)
Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and  d)
Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through
correlation or other means for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level3.Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect managements and, if
applicable, an independent third-party valuation firms own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. When the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is
categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable
(Level 3). Gains and losses for assets and liabilities categorized within the Level 3 table below may include changes in fair
value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3). A review of fair
value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. Such reclassifications involving Level 3 assets
and liabilities are reported as transfers in/out of Level 3 as of the end of the quarter in which the reclassifications occur. Within the fair value hierarchy tables below, cash and cash equivalents are excluded but could be classified as
Level 1. The following tables present the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of

 The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option of accounting to the FLLP Facility, which was
refinanced by way of amendment on May 31, 2019. As this refinancing was deemed to be a significant modification of debt, per ASC 825-10-25, a new election was
triggered. As such, the FLLP Facility is shown as a transfer out of Level 3. During the fourth quarter of 2019, our investment in Acrisure, LLC was transferred from Level 2 to Level 3. At December 31, 2019, the Investment Adviser no
longer believed the market quote to be representative of fair value due to its specific knowledge of transaction activity in the position. Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements The Company typically determines the fair value of its performing debt investments utilizing a yield analysis. In a yield analysis, a price is
ascribed for each investment based upon an assessment of current and expected market yields for similar investments and risk profiles. Additional consideration is given to current contractual interest rates, relative maturities and other key terms
and risks associated with an investment. Among  22

investment within each portfolio company. Significant unobservable quantitative inputs typically used in the fair value measurement of
the Companys Level 3 assets and liabilities primarily reflect current market yields, including indices, and readily available quotes from brokers, dealers, and pricing services as indicated by comparable assets and liabilities, as well as
enterprise values, returns on equity and earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) multiples of similar companies, and comparable market transactions for equity securities.

Gemino is a commercial finance company that originates, underwrites, and manages primarily secured, asset-based loans for small and mid-sized companies operating in the healthcare industry. Our initial
investment in Gemino was $32,839. The management team of Gemino co-invested in the transaction and continues to lead Gemino. As of March 31, 2020, Geminos management team and Solar Senior own
approximately 7% and 93% of the equity in Gemino, respectively. Concurrent with the closing of the transaction, Gemino entered into a
new, four-year, non-recourse, $100,000 credit facility with non-affiliates, which was expandable to $150,000 under its accordion feature. Effective March 31, 2014,
the credit facility was expanded to $105,000 and again on June 27, 2014 to $110,000. On May 27, 2016, Gemino entered into a new $125,000 credit facility which replaced the previously existing facility. The new facility has similar terms as
compared to the previous facility and includes an accordion feature increase to $200,000 and had a maturity date of May 27, 2020. On June 28, 2019, this $125,000 facility was amended, extending the maturity date to June 28, 2023. Gemino currently manages a highly diverse portfolio of directly-originated and underwritten senior-secured commitments. As of March 31,
2020, the portfolio totaled approximately $208,259 of commitments with a total net investment in loans of $116,490 on total assets of $145,532. As of December 31, 2019, the portfolio totaled approximately $203,828 of commitments with
a total net investment in loans of $110,968 on total assets of $122,124. At March 31, 2020, the portfolio consisted of 37 issuers with an average balance of approximately $3,148 versus 34 issuers with an average balance of approximately $3,264
at December 31, 2019. All of the commitments in Geminos portfolio are floating-rate, senior-secured, cash-pay loans. Geminos credit facility, which is
non-recourse to us, had approximately $113,000 and $89,000 of borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019,
Gemino had net income of $791 and $932, respectively, on gross income of $3,239 and $3,155, respectively. Due to timing and non-cash items, there may be material differences between GAAP net income and
cash available for distributions.  26

The Company controls the funding of the Gemino commitment and may cancel it at its discretion. The credit agreements of the above loan commitments contain customary lending provisions and/or are subject to the
portfolio companys achievement of certain milestones that allow relief to the Company from funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying company experiences materially adverse events that affect the
financial condition or business outlook for the company. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. As of
March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had sufficient cash available and/or liquid securities available to fund its commitments. In the normal course of its business, we invest or trade in various financial instruments and may enter into various investment activities
with off-balance sheet risk, which may include forward foreign currency contracts. Generally, these financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments at
specific terms at future dates. These financial instruments contain varying degrees of off-balance sheet risk whereby changes in the market value or our satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount
recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.  27

SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued) March 31, 2020 (in
thousands, except share amounts)  Note 11. North Mill Holdco LLC We acquired 100% of the equity interests of North Mill Capital LLC (NMC) on October 20, 2017. NMC is a leading asset-backed
lending commercial finance company that provides senior secured asset-backed financings to U.S. based small-to-medium-sized
businesses primarily in the manufacturing, services and distribution industries. We invested approximately $51,000 to effect the transaction. Subsequently, the Company contributed 1% of its equity interest in NMC to ESP SSC Corporation. Immediately
thereafter, the Company and ESP SSC Corporation contributed their equity interests to NorthMill LLC (North Mill). On May 1, 2018, North Mill merged with and into NMC, with NMC being the surviving company. The Company and ESP SSC
Corporation own 99% and 1% of the equity interests of NMC, respectively. The management team of NMC continues to lead NMC. On June 28, 2019, North Mill Holdco LLC (NM Holdco), a newly formed entity and ESP SSC Corporation acquired
Summit Financial Resources, a Salt Lake City-based provider of asset-backed financing to small and medium-sized businesses. As part of this transaction, the Companys 99% interest in the equity of NMC was
contributed to NM Holdco. This approximately $15,500 transaction was financed with borrowings on NMCs credit facility. NM Holdco
currently manages a highly diverse portfolio of directly-originated and underwritten senior-secured commitments. As of March 31, 2020, the portfolio totaled approximately $393,355 of commitments, of which $182,515 were funded, on total
assets of $211,085. As of December 31, 2019, the portfolio totaled approximately $383,082 of commitments, of which $171,144 were funded, on total assets of $199,417. At March 31, 2020, the portfolio consisted of 157 issuers with an
average balance of approximately $1,163 versus 159 issuers with an average balance of approximately $1,076 at December 31, 2019. NMC has a senior credit facility with a bank lending group for $160,000 which expires on October 20,
2020. Borrowings are secured by substantially all of NMCs assets. NMCs credit facility, which is non-recourse to us, had approximately $136,498 and $122,551 of borrowings outstanding at
March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, NM Holdco had net income of $1,264 and $370, respectively, on gross income of $5,603 and $3,887, respectively. Due to timing and non-cash items, there may be material differences between GAAP net income and cash available for distributions. As such, and subject to fluctuations in NM Holdcos funded commitments, the timing of
originations, and the repayments of financings, the Company cannot guarantee that NM Holdco will be able to maintain consistent dividend payments to us. Note 12. Capital Share Transactions As
of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, 200,000,000 shares of $0.01 par value capital stock were authorized. Transactions in

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and Board of Directors Solar Senior Capital
Ltd.: Results of Review of Interim Financial Information We have reviewed the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Solar Senior Capital Ltd. (and subsidiaries) (the Company), including the consolidated
schedule of investments, as of March 31, 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively, the
consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 20, 2020, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2019, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities,
including the consolidated schedule of investments, from which it has been derived. Basis for Review Results This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Companys management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the
PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of
applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.  LOGO New York, New York May 7, 2020  30

statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. Some of the statements in this report constitute forward-looking
statements, which relate to future events or our future performance or financial condition. The forward-looking statements contained herein involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to:  

our future operating results, including our ability to achieve objectives as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic;  

our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;  

the impact of investments that we expect to make;  

our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;  

the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest
and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic thereon;  

the impact of any protracted decline in the liquidity of credit markets on our business and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic thereon;  

the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives, including as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic;  

the valuation of our investments in portfolio companies, particularly those having no liquid trading market, and
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic thereon;  

market conditions and our ability to access alternative debt markets and additional debt and equity capital, and
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic thereon;  

our expected financings and investments;  

the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital;  

the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic thereon; and  

the ability of our investment adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our
investments and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic thereon. These statements
are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted
in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation:  

an economic downturn, including as a result of the current COVID-19
pandemic, could impair our portfolio companies ability to continue to operate, which could lead to the loss of some or all of our investments in such portfolio companies;  

a contraction of available credit and/or an inability to access the equity markets, including as a result of the
current COVID-19 pandemic, could impair our lending and investment activities;  

interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly because we use leverage as part of our
investment strategy;  

currency fluctuations could adversely affect the results of our investments in foreign companies, particularly to
the extent that we receive payments denominated in foreign currency rather than U.S. dollars; and  31

reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. Overview Solar Senior Capital Ltd. (Solar Senior, the Company, we or our), a Maryland
corporation formed in December 2010, is a closed-end, externally managed, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business
development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). Furthermore, as the Company is an investment company, it continues to apply the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946. In addition, for tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (RIC) under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). On February 24, 2011, we priced our initial
public offering, selling 9.0 million shares, including the underwriters over-allotment, raising approximately $168 million in net proceeds. Concurrent with this offering, Solar Senior Capital Investors LLC, an entity controlled by
Michael S. Gross, our Chairman, Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, and Bruce Spohler, our Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, purchased an
additional 500,000 shares through a concurrent private placement, raising another $10 million. We invest primarily in privately held
U.S. middle-market companies, where we believe the supply of primary capital is limited and the investment opportunities are most attractive. We define middle market to refer to companies with annual revenues between $50 million and
$1 billion. Our investment objective is to seek to maximize current income consistent with the preservation of capital. We seek to achieve our investment objective by directly and indirectly investing in senior loans, including first lien,
stretch-senior, and second lien debt instruments, made to private middle-market companies whose debt is rated below investment grade, which we refer to collectively as senior loans. We may also invest in debt of public companies that are
thinly traded or in equity securities. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the value of our net assets (including the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) will be invested directly and indirectly in senior loans. Senior
loans typically pay interest at rates which are determined periodically on the basis of a floating base lending rate, primarily LIBOR, plus a premium. Senior loans in which we invest are typically made to U.S. and, to a limited extent, non-U.S. corporations, partnerships and other business entities which operate in various industries and geographical regions. Senior loans typically are rated below investment grade. Securities rated below
investment grade are often referred to as leveraged loans, high yield or junk securities, and may be considered high risk compared to debt instruments that are rated investment grade. In addition, some
of our debt investments are not scheduled to fully amortize over their stated terms, which could cause us to suffer losses if the respective issuer of such debt investment is unable to refinance or repay their remaining indebtedness at maturity.
While the Company does not typically seek to invest in traditional equity securities as part of its investment objective, the Company may occasionally acquire some equity securities in connection with senior  32

loan investments and in certain other unique circumstances, such as the Companys equity investments in Gemino Healthcare Finance, LLC (Gemino) and North Mill Holdco LLC
(NM Holdco). We invest in senior loans made primarily to private, leveraged middle-market companies with approximately
$20 million to $100 million of earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). Our business model is focused primarily on the direct origination of investments through portfolio companies or their
financial sponsors. Our direct investments in individual securities will generally range between $5 million and $30 million each, although we expect that this investment size will vary proportionately with the size of our capital base
and/or strategic initiatives. In addition, we may invest a portion of our portfolio in other types of investments, which we refer to as opportunistic investments, which are not our primary focus but are intended to enhance our overall returns. These
opportunistic investments may include, but are not limited to, direct investments in public companies that are not thinly traded and securities of leveraged companies located in select countries outside of the United States. We may invest up to 30%
of our total assets in such opportunistic investments, including loans issued by non-U.S. issuers, subject to compliance with our regulatory obligations as a BDC under the 1940 Act. Our investment activities
are managed by Solar Capital Partners, LLC (Solar Capital Partners or Investment Adviser) and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are non-interested, as such term
is defined in the 1940 Act. Solar Capital Management, LLC (Solar Capital Management or Administrator) provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate. As of March 31, 2020, the Investment Adviser has directly invested approximately $9.3 billion in more than 400 different portfolio
companies since 2006. Over the same period, the Investment Adviser completed transactions with approximately 200 different financial sponsors. Recent
Developments On April 2, 2020, the Board declared a monthly distribution of $0.1175 per share payable on May 1, 2020 to
holders of record as of April 23, 2020. On May 7, 2020, the Board declared a monthly distribution of $0.10 per share payable on June
2, 2020 to holders of record as of May 22, 2020. 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. 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 definition of eligible portfolio company includes certain public companies that do not have any securities listed on a national securities exchange and companies whose
securities are listed on a national securities exchange but whose market capitalization is less than $250 million. Revenue We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest and dividend income from the securities we hold and capital gains, if any, on investment
securities that we may sell. Our debt investments generally have a stated term of three to seven years and typically bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark London interbank offered rate (LIBOR),
commercial paper rate, or the prime rate. Interest on our debt investments is generally payable monthly or quarterly but may be bi-monthly or semi-annually. In addition, our investments may provide payment-in-kind (PIK) interest. Such amounts of accrued PIK interest are added to the cost of the investment on the respective capitalization dates and generally
become due at maturity of the  33

investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and,
if applicable, consulting fees, etc. Expenses All investment professionals of the Investment Adviser and their respective staffs, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment
advisory and management services, and the compensation and routine overhead expenses of such personnel allocable to such services, are provided and paid for by Solar Capital Partners. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and
transactions, including (without limitation):  

the cost of our organization and public offerings;  

the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;  

the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of our shares and other securities;  

interest payable on debt, if any, to finance our investments;  

fees payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making investments, including fees and expenses
associated with performing due diligence reviews of prospective investments and advisory fees;  

transfer agent and custodial fees;  

fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;  

federal and state registration fees, any stock exchange listing fees;  

federal, state and local taxes;  

independent directors fees and expenses;  

brokerage commissions;  

fidelity bond, directors and officers errors and omissions liability insurance and other insurance premiums;  

direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing, mailing, long distance telephone and staff;  

fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs;  

costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and applicable federal and
state securities laws; and  

all other expenses incurred by either Solar Capital Management or us in connection with administering our
business, including payments under the Administration Agreement that will be based upon our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by Solar Capital Management in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement,
including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions, and our allocable portion of the costs of compensation and related expenses of our chief compliance officer and our chief financial officer and their respective
staffs. We expect our general and administrative operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to increase
moderately in dollar terms. During periods of asset growth, we generally expect our general and administrative operating expenses to decline as a percentage of our total assets and increase during periods of asset declines. Incentive fees, interest
expense and costs relating to future offerings of securities, among others, may also increase or reduce overall operating expenses based on portfolio performance, interest rate benchmarks, and offerings of our securities relative to comparative
periods, among other factors.  34

Portfolio and Investment Activity During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we invested $35.4 million across 13 portfolio companies. This compares to investing
$31.2 million in 10 portfolio companies for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Investments sold or prepaid during the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaled $73.1 million versus $15.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020, our portfolio consisted of 45 portfolio companies and was invested 76.9% directly in
senior secured loans and 23.1% in common equity/equity interests/warrants (of which 8.8% is Gemino and 14.2% is NM Holdco, through which the Company indirectly invests in senior secured loans), in each case, measured at fair value versus 49
portfolio companies invested 77.8% directly in senior secured loans and 22.2% in common equity/equity interests/warrants (of which 7.2% is Gemino and 14.6% is NMC) at March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020, 98.5% or $389.4 million of our income producing investment
portfolio* was floating rate and 1.5% or $6.1 million was fixed rate, measured at fair value. At March 31, 2019, 95.8% or $432.4 million of our income producing investment
portfolio* was floating rate and 4.2% or $19.1 million was fixed rate, measured at fair value. Since the initial public offering of
Solar Senior on February 24, 2011 and through March 31, 2020, invested capital totaled over $1.7 billion in over 145 portfolio companies. Over the same period, Solar Senior completed transactions with more than 100 different financial
sponsors. Gemino Healthcare Finance, LLC We acquired Gemino (d/b/a Gemino Senior Secured Healthcare Finance) on September 30, 2013. Gemino is a commercial finance company that
originates, underwrites, and manages primarily secured, asset-based loans for small and mid-sized companies operating in the healthcare industry. Our initial investment in Gemino was $32.8 million. The
management team of Gemino co-invested in the transaction and continues to lead Gemino. As of March 31, 2020, Geminos management team and Solar Senior own approximately 7% and 93% of the equity in
Gemino, respectively. Concurrent with the closing of the transaction, Gemino entered into a new, four-year, non-recourse, $100.0 million credit facility with non-affiliates, which was expandable to $150.0 million under its accordion feature. Effective March 31, 2014,
the credit facility was expanded to $105.0 million and again on June 27, 2014 to $110.0 million. On May 27, 2016, Gemino entered into a new $125.0 million credit facility which replaced the previously existing facility. The
new facility has similar terms as compared to the previous facility and includes an accordion feature increase to $200.0 million and had a maturity date of May 27, 2020. On June 28, 2019, this $125.0 million facility was amended,
extending the maturity date to June 28, 2023. Gemino currently manages a highly diverse portfolio of directly-originated and
underwritten senior-secured commitments. As of March 31, 2020, the portfolio totaled approximately $208.3 million of commitments with a total net investment in loans of $116.5 million on total assets of $145.5 million. As of
December 31, 2019, the portfolio totaled approximately $203.8 million of commitments with a total net investment in loans of $111.0 million on total assets of $122.1 million. At March 31, 2020, the portfolio consisted
of 37 issuers with an average balance of approximately $3.1 million versus 34 issuers with an average balance of approximately $3.3 million at December 31, 2019. All of the commitments in Geminos portfolio are floating-rate,
senior-secured, cash-pay loans. Geminos credit facility, which is non-recourse to us, had approximately $113.0 million and $89.0 million of borrowings
outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, Gemino had net income of $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively, on gross income of
$3.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively. Due to timing and non-cash items,  *
We have included Gemino Healthcare Finance, LLC and North Mill Capital LLC within our income producing
investment portfolio.  35

there may be material differences between GAAP net income and cash available for distributions. As such, and subject to fluctuations in Geminos funded commitments, the timing of
originations, and the repayments of financings, the Company cannot guarantee that Gemino will be able to maintain consistent dividend payments to us. North Mill Capital LLC We acquired 100%
of the equity interests of North Mill Capital LLC (NMC) on October 20, 2017. NMC is a leading asset-backed lending commercial finance company that provides senior secured asset-backed financings to U.S. based small-to-medium-sized businesses primarily in the manufacturing, services and distribution industries. We invested approximately
$51 million to effect the transaction. Subsequently, the Company contributed 1% of its equity interest in NMC to ESP SSC Corporation.    Immediately thereafter, the Company and ESP SSC Corporation contributed their equity
interests to North Mill. On May 1, 2018, North Mill merged with and into NMC, with NMC being the surviving company. The Company and ESP SSC Corporation own 99% and 1% of the equity interests of NMC, respectively. The management team of NMC
continues to lead NMC. On June 28, 2019, NM Holdco, a newly formed entity and ESP SSC Corporation acquired Summit Financial Resources, a Salt Lake City-based provider of asset-backed financing to small and
medium-sized businesses. As part of this transaction, the Companys 99% interest in the equity of NMC was contributed to NM Holdco. This approximately $15.5 million transaction was financed with
borrowings on NMCs credit facility. NM Holdco currently manages a highly diverse portfolio of directly-originated and underwritten
senior-secured commitments. As of March 31, 2020, the portfolio totaled approximately $393.4 million of commitments, of which $182.5 million were funded, on total assets of $211.1 million. As of December 31, 2019, the
portfolio totaled approximately $383.1 million of commitments, of which $171.1 million were funded, on total assets of $199.4 million. At March 31, 2020, the portfolio consisted of 157 issuers with an average balance of
approximately $1.2 million versus 159 issuers with an average balance of approximately $1.1 million at December 31, 2019. NMC has a senior credit facility with a bank lending group for $160.0 million which expires on
October 20, 2020. Borrowings are secured by substantially all of NMCs assets. NMCs credit facility, which is non-recourse to us, had approximately $136.5 million and
$122.6 million of borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, NM Holdco had net income of $1.3 million and $0.4 million,
respectively, on gross income of $5.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Due to timing and non-cash items, there may be material differences between GAAP net income and cash available for
distributions. As such, and subject to fluctuations in NM Holdcos funded commitments, the timing of originations, and the repayments of financings, the Company cannot guarantee that NM Holdco will be able to maintain consistent dividend
payments to us. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could
materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following items as critical accounting policies. Within the context of these critical accounting policies and disclosed subsequent events herein, we are not currently aware of any other
reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported. Valuation of Portfolio Investments We conduct the valuation of our assets, pursuant to which our net asset value is determined, at all times consistent with GAAP,
and the 1940 Act. Our valuation procedures are set forth in more detail below: The Company conducts the valuation of its assets in
accordance with GAAP and the 1940 Act. The Company generally values its assets on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required. Investments for which  36

##### Table of Contents

market quotations are readily available on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the date of valuation. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments from
pricing services or brokers or dealers in order to value assets. When doing so, management determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of the investment. If determined adequate, the Company uses
the quote obtained. Debt investments with maturities of 60 days or less shall each be valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which is expected to approximate fair value, unless such valuation, in the judgment of the
Investment Adviser, does not represent fair value, in which case such investments shall be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Companys board of directors (the Board). Investments for which reliable market quotations are not readily available or for which the pricing sources do not provide a valuation or
methodology or provide a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Investment Adviser or the Board does not represent fair value, each shall be valued as follows: (i) each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by the
investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment; (ii) preliminary valuations are discussed with senior management of the Investment Adviser; (iii) independent valuation firms engaged by, or on behalf of, the Board will
conduct independent appraisals and review the Investment Advisers preliminary valuations and make their own independent assessment for (a) each portfolio investment that, when taken together with all other investments in the same
portfolio company, exceeds 10% of estimated total assets, plus available borrowings, as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter, and (b) each portfolio investment that is presently in payment default and the Investment Adviser
does not expect to reach an agreement with the portfolio company in the subsequent quarter; (iv) the Board will discuss the valuations and determine the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the
Investment Adviser and, where appropriate, the respective independent valuation firm. The recommendation of fair value generally
considers the following factors among others, as relevant: applicable market yields; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio companys ability to make payments; the portfolio companys earnings and discounted cash
flow; the markets in which the issuer does business; and comparisons to publicly traded securities, among others. When an external event
such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Company will consider the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate the valuation. 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 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. Investments are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as
appropriate. However, in accordance with ASC 820-10, certain investments that qualify as investment companies in accordance with ASC 946, may be valued using net asset value as a practical expedient for fair
value. 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 approaches 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 we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security
covenants, call protection provisions, 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, and enterprise values, among other factors. When available, broker quotations and/or quotations provided by pricing services are considered as an input in the
valuation process. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, there has been no change to the Companys valuation approaches or techniques and the nature of the related inputs considered in the valuation process.  37

##### Table of Contents

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820 classifies the inputs used to
measure these fair values into the following hierarchy: Level1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities, accessible by the Company at the measurement date. Level2: Quoted prices for similar
assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices. Level3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The
exercise of judgment is based in part on our knowledge of the asset class and our prior experience. Determination of fair value involves
subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our consolidated financial
statements. Revenue Recognition The Company records dividend income and interest, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis.
Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest and/or dividends in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest/dividend cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is no longer probable
that principal or interest/dividend cash payments will be collected. Such non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest or dividends are paid in cash, and in
managements judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining interest or dividend obligations. Interest or dividend cash payments received on investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon
managements judgment. Some of our investments may have contractual PIK interest or dividends. PIK interest and dividends computed at the contractual rate are accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK
investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the
original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Company capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at the maturity of the
investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK
investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends is reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. The Company does not
reverse previously capitalized PIK interest or dividends. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on non-accrual status are
restored to accrual status if the Company again believes that PIK is expected to be realized. Loan origination fees, original issue discount, and market discounts are capitalized and amortized into income using the effective interest method. Upon
the prepayment of a loan, any unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and other investments as interest income when we receive such amounts. Capital structuring fees are recorded as
other income when earned. The typically higher yields and interest rates on PIK securities, to the extent we invested, reflects the
payment deferral and increased credit risk associated with such instruments and that such investments may represent a significantly higher credit risk than coupon loans. PIK securities may have unreliable valuations  38

##### Table of Contents

because their continuing accruals require continuing judgments about the collectability of the deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral. PIK interest has the effect of
generating investment income and increasing the incentive fees payable at a compounding rate. In addition, the deferral of PIK interest also increases the loan-to-value
ratio at a compounding rate. PIK securities create the risk that incentive fees will be paid to the Investment Adviser based on non-cash accruals that ultimately may not be realized, but the Investment Adviser
will be under no obligation to reimburse the Company for these fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, capitalized PIK income totaled $0.02 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Net Realized Gain or Loss and Net Change in Unrealized Gain or Loss We generally measure realized gain or loss 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 origination or commitment fees and prepayment penalties. The net change in unrealized gain or loss reflects the change in
portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gain or loss, when gains or losses are realized. Gains or losses on investments are calculated by using the specific identification
method. Income Taxes Solar Senior
Capital, a U.S. corporation, has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify for taxation as a RIC, the Company is required, among other things, to timely distribute to its
stockholders at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a given tax year, we may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year
distributions into the next tax year and pay a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year distributions, the
Company accrues an estimated excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework
 Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modify and eliminate certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value
Measurement. ASU 2018-13 is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has
adopted ASU 2018-13 and determined that the adoption has not had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2020-04 on its
consolidated financial statements and disclosures. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results comparisons are for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019: Investment Income For the three months
ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, gross investment income totaled $8.8 million and $10.2 million, respectively. The decrease in gross investment income for the year over year three month periods was primarily due to a reduction in
portfolio yield, mainly as a result of the decrease in LIBOR.  39

##### Table of Contents

Expenses Net expenses totaled $3.1 million and $4.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, of which
$1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, were gross base management fees and gross performance-based incentive fees and $2.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, were interest and other credit facility expenses. Over the
same periods, $1.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of management and performance-based incentive fees were waived. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $0.9 million and
$0.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Expenses generally consist of management fees, performance-based incentive fees, administrative services expenses, insurance, legal expenses, directors
expenses, audit and tax expenses, transfer agent fees and expenses, and other general and administrative expenses. Interest and other credit facility expenses generally consist of interest, unused fees, agency fees and loan origination fees, if any,
among others. The decrease in net expenses year over year is primarily due to lower interest expense due to reductions in LIBOR and an increase in the waivers of fees. Net Investment Income The Companys
net investment income totaled $5.7 million and $5.7 million, or $0.35 and $0.35, per average share, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Net Realized Gain The Company had
investment sales and prepayments totaling approximately $73.1 million and $15.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Net realized gains over the same periods were $0.1 million and
$0.1 million, respectively. Net realized gains for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were primarily related to the Companys sale of selected assets. Net realized gains for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were primarily
related to the Companys exit from its investment in Genmark Diagnostics, Inc. Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, net change in unrealized gain (loss) on the Companys assets and liabilities
totaled ($27.8) million and $1.6 million, respectively. Net unrealized loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is primarily due to depreciation on our investments in North Mill Capital LLC, Confie Seguros Holding II Co., Capstone
Logistics Acquisition, Inc. and US Radiology Specialists, Inc., among others. Net unrealized gain for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is primarily due to appreciation on our investments in North Mill Capital LLC, Gemino Healthcare Finance
LLC and TwentyEighty Investors, LLC, among others, partially offset by depreciation in Trident USA Health Services, among others. The year over year net change in unrealized loss is impacted by uncertainty due to the
COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on market yields and fundamental portfolio company performance. Net Increase
(Decrease) in Net Assets From Operations For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had a net increase
(decrease) in net assets resulting from operations of ($22.1) million and $7.4 million, respectively. For the same periods, earnings (loss) per average share were ($1.37) and $0.46, respectively. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The
Companys liquidity and capital resources are generally available through its revolving credit facilities, unsecured notes and through periodic follow-on equity offerings, as well as from cash flows from
operations, investment sales and pre-payments of investments. At March 31, 2020, the Company had $174.4 million in  40

borrowings outstanding on its credit facilities and $210.6 million of unused capacity, subject to borrowing base limits. On March 31, 2020, the Company closed a private offering of $85,000 of senior unsecured notes due 2025 (the 2025 Unsecured
Notes) with a fixed interest rate of 3.90% and a maturity date of March 31, 2025. Interest on the 2025 Unsecured Notes is due semi-annually on March 31 and September 30. The 2025 Unsecured Notes were issued in a private placement
only to qualified institutional buyers. On May 31, 2019, the Company as transferor and FLLP
2015-1, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as borrower entered into amendment number five to the $75 million credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, NA acting as administrative agent (the
FLLP Facility). The Company acts as servicer under the FLLP Facility. The FLLP Facility is scheduled to mature on May 31, 2024. The FLLP Facility generally bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a range of 2.15-2.25%. On June 1, 2018, the $200 million senior secured revolving credit facility with
our wholly-owned subsidiary SUNS SPV LLC as borrower and Citibank, N.A. acting as administrative agent (the Credit Facility) was refinanced by way of amendment, allowing for greater investment flexibility and the extension of the
maturity date, among other changes. On July 13, 2018, commitments to the Credit Facility, as amended, were increased from $200 million to $225 million by utilizing the accordion feature. In September 2016, the Company closed a follow-on public equity offering of 4.5 million shares of
common stock at $16.76 per share raising approximately $75.0 million in net proceeds. In the future, the Company may raise additional equity or debt capital, among other considerations. The primary uses of funds will be investments in portfolio
companies, reductions in debt outstanding and other general corporate purposes. The issuance of debt or equity securities will depend on future market conditions, funding needs and other factors and there can be no assurance that any such issuance
will occur or be successful. Cash Equivalents We deem certain U.S. Treasury bills, repurchase agreements and other high-quality, short-term debt securities as cash equivalents. The Company
makes purchases that are consistent with its purpose of making investments in securities described in paragraphs 1 through 3 of Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. From time to time, including at or near the end of each fiscal quarter, we consider
using various temporary investment strategies for our business. One strategy includes taking proactive steps by utilizing cash equivalents as temporary assets with the objective of enhancing our investment flexibility pursuant to Section 55 of
the 1940 Act. More specifically, from time-to-time we may purchase U.S. Treasury bills or other high-quality, short-term debt securities at or near the end of the
quarter and typically close out the position on a net cash basis subsequent to quarter end. We may also utilize repurchase agreements or other balance sheet transactions, including drawing down on our credit facilities, as deemed appropriate. The
amount of these transactions or such drawn cash for this purpose is excluded from total assets for purposes of computing the asset base upon which the management fee is determined. We held approximately $90 million of cash equivalents as of
March 31, 2020. Debt Unsecured Notes On
March 31, 2020, the Company closed a private offering of $85 million of the 2025 Unsecured Notes with a fixed interest rate of 3.90% and a maturity date of March 31, 2025. Interest on the 2025 Unsecured Notes is due semi-annually on
March 31 and September 30. The 2025 Unsecured Notes were issued in a private placement only to qualified institutional buyers.  41

Revolving Loan Facilities On August 26, 2011, the Company established our wholly-owned subsidiary, SUNS SPV LLC (the SUNS SPV) which entered into the
Credit Facility with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. acting as administrative agent. On January 10, 2017, commitments to the Credit Facility, as amended, were increased from $175 million to $200 million by utilizing the accordion

At March 31, 2020, we had a total of $210.6 million of unused borrowing capacity under our revolving
credit facilities, subject to borrowing base limits. Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted, as a BDC,
to issue senior securities in amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 150% of gross assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, after each issuance of senior
securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy the asset coverage test. If that happens, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments and, depending on the nature of our leverage, repay a portion of our
indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous. Also, any amounts that we use to service our indebtedness would not be available for distributions to our common stockholders. Furthermore, as a result of issuing senior securities, we
would also be exposed to typical risks associated with leverage, including an increased risk of loss. Senior Securities Information about our senior securities is shown in the following table as of the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and each year
ended December 31 since the Company commenced operations, unless otherwise noted. The  42

N/A  (1)
Total amount of each class of senior securities outstanding (in thousands) at the end of the period presented. (2)
The asset coverage ratio for a class of senior securities representing indebtedness is calculated as our
consolidated total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, divided by senior securities representing indebtedness. This asset coverage ratio is multiplied by one thousand to determine the Asset Coverage
Per Unit. In order to determine the specific Asset Coverage Per Unit for each class of debt, the total Asset Coverage Per Unit was divided based on the amount outstanding at the end of the period for each. As of March 31, 2020, asset coverage
was 234.3%. (3)
The amount to which such class of senior security would be entitled upon the involuntary liquidation of the
issuer in preference to any security junior to it. (4)
Not applicable, we do not have senior securities that are registered for public trading. We have also entered into two contracts under which we have future commitments: the Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which Solar Capital
Partners has agreed to serve as our investment adviser, and the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which Solar Capital Management has agreed to furnish us with the facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations and provide on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance. Payments under the
Advisory Agreement are equal to (1) a percentage of the value of our average gross assets  43

and (2) a two-part incentive fee. Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an amount based upon our allocable portion of the
Administrators overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, technology systems, insurance and our allocable portion of the costs of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and
their respective staffs. Either party may terminate each of the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement without penalty upon 60 days written notice to the other. See note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements From time-to-time and in the normal course of business, the
Company may make unfunded capital commitments to current or prospective portfolio companies. Typically, the Company may agree to provide delayed-draw term loans or, to a lesser extent, revolving loan or equity commitments. These unfunded capital
commitments always take into account the Companys liquidity and cash available for investment, portfolio and issuer diversification, and other considerations. Accordingly, the Company had the following unfunded capital commitments at
March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively:  March 31,2020

The Company controls the funding of the Gemino commitment and may cancel it at its discretion. The credit agreements of the above loan commitments contain customary lending provisions and/or are subject to the
portfolio companys achievement of certain milestones that allow relief to the Company from funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying company experiences materially adverse events that affect the
financial condition or business outlook for the company. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. As of
March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had sufficient cash available and/or liquid securities available to fund its commitments. In the normal course of its business, we invest or trade in various financial instruments and may enter into various investment activities
with off-balance sheet risk, which may include forward foreign currency contracts.  44

1.41 Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end of the
calendar year. Future distributions, if any, will be determined by our Board. We expect that our distributions to  45




---

##### Table of Contents

stockholders will generally be from accumulated net investment income, from net realized capital gains or non-taxable return of capital, if any, as
applicable. We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain our RIC status, we must distribute 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 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
distribution, then stockholders cash distributions 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 distributions. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of
these distributions from time to time. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a business development company, we may in the future be limited in our ability to make distributions. Also, our revolving credit facility may
limit our ability to declare distributions if we default under certain provisions. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of the tax benefits available to
us as a regulated investment company. In addition, in accordance with GAAP and tax regulations, we include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as contractual payment-in-kind interest, which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance that becomes due at the end of the loan term, or the accrual of original issue or market discount. Since we may
recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income to obtain tax benefits as a regulated investment company. With respect to the distributions to stockholders, income from origination, structuring, closing and certain other upfront fees
associated with investments in portfolio companies are treated as taxable income and accordingly, distributed to stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 18.0% and 12.3% of distributions were funded
from the waiver of management and/or incentive fees. Related Parties We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:  

We have entered into the Advisory Agreement with Solar Capital Partners. Mr. Gross, our Chairman, Co-Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Spohler, our Co-Chief Executive Office, Chief Operating Officer and board member, are managing members and senior
investment professionals of, and have financial and controlling interests in, the Investment Adviser. In addition, Mr. Peteka, our Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary serves as the Chief Financial Officer for Solar Capital
Partners.  

The Administrator provides us with the office facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct day-to-day operations pursuant to our Administration Agreement. We reimburse the Administrator for the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by it in
performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions, and the compensation of our chief compliance officer, our chief financial officer and their
respective staffs.  

We have entered into a license agreement with the Investment Adviser, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser
has granted us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name Solar Capital.  46




---

##### Table of Contents

The Investment Adviser may also manage other funds in the future that may have investment
mandates that are similar, in whole and in part, with ours. For example, the Investment Adviser presently serves as investment adviser to Solar Capital Ltd., a publicly traded BDC, which focuses on investing in senior secured loans, including
stretch-senior loans and to a lesser extent unsecured loans and equity securities, as well as SCP Private Income BDC LLC, an unlisted BDC that focuses primarily in senior secured loans, including asset-based loans and first lien loans. In addition,
Michael S. Gross, our Chairman, Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, Bruce Spohler, our Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, and Richard L.
Peteka, our Chief Financial Officer, serve in similar capacities for Solar Capital Ltd. and SCP Private Credit Income BDC LLC. The Investment Adviser and certain investment advisory affiliates may determine that an investment is appropriate for us
and for one or more of those other funds. In such event, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, the Investment Adviser or its affiliates may determine that we should invest side-by-side with one or more other funds. Any such investments will be made only to the extent permitted by applicable law and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff, and consistent with the
Investment Advisers allocation procedures. On June 13, 2017, the Adviser received an exemptive order that permits the Company to participate in negotiated co-investment transactions with
certain affiliates, in a manner consistent with the Companys investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors, and pursuant to various conditions (the
Order). If the Company is unable to rely on the Order for a particular opportunity, such opportunity will be allocated first to the entity whose investment strategy is the most consistent with the opportunity being allocated, and second,
if the terms of the opportunity are consistent with more than one entitys investment strategy, on an alternating basis. Although the Advisers investment professionals will endeavor to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and
equitable manner, the Company and its stockholders could be adversely affected to the extent investment opportunities are allocated among us and other investment vehicles managed or sponsored by, or affiliated with, our executive officers, directors
and members of the Adviser. Related party transactions may occur among Solar Senior Capital Ltd., Gemino and NM Holdco. These
transactions may occur in the normal course of business. No administrative fees are paid to Solar Capital Partners by Gemino or NM Holdco. In addition, we have adopted a formal code of ethics that governs the conduct of our officers and directors. Our officers and directors also
remain subject to the duties imposed by both the 1940 Act and the Maryland General Corporation Law.  Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings,
our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse
effect on our net investment income. In addition, in a prolonged low interest rate environment, including a reduction of LIBOR to zero, the difference between the total interest income earned on interest earning assets and the total interest expense
incurred on interest bearing liabilities may be compressed, reducing our net interest income and potentially adversely affecting our operating results. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, certain of the investments in our
comprehensive investment portfolio had floating interest rates. These floating rate investments were primarily based on floating LIBOR and typically have durations of one to three months after which they reset to current market interest rates.
Additionally, some of these investments have LIBOR floors. The Company also has revolving credit facilities that are generally based on floating LIBOR. Assuming no changes to our balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 and no new defaults by
portfolio companies, a hypothetical one percent decrease in LIBOR on our comprehensive floating rate assets and liabilities would increase our net investment income by seven cents per average share over the next twelve months. Assuming no changes to
our balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 and no new defaults by portfolio companies, a hypothetical one percent increase in LIBOR on our comprehensive floating rate assets and liabilities would increase our net investment income by approximately
six cents per average share  47

over the next twelve months. However, we may hedge against interest rate fluctuations from time-to-time by using
standard hedging instruments such as futures, options, swaps and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to
participate in any benefits of certain changes in interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. At March 31, 2020, we have no interest rate hedging instruments outstanding on our balance sheet.  Increase (Decrease) in LIBOR

Controls and Procedures (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of March 31, 2020 (the end of the period covered by this report), we, including our Co-Chief
Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the 1934 Act). Based on that
evaluation, our management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that
information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and
procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its
judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures. (b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial
Reporting Management has not identified any change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the first quarter of 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION  Item 1.
Legal Proceedings We, Solar Capital Management, LLC and Solar Capital Partners, LLC are not currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings
threatened against us. From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. While the outcome of these
legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations beyond what has been disclosed with these financial statements.  48

Item 1A.
Risk Factors In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Risk Factors
in the February 20, 2020 filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual
Report are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating
results. Other than the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes during the period ended March 31, 2020 to the risk factors discussed in Risk Factors in the February 20, 2020 filing of our Annual Report
on Form 10-K. Events outside of our control, including public health crises, could negatively affect our
portfolio companies and our results of our operations. Periods of market volatility have occurred and could continue to occur in
response to pandemics or other events outside of our control. These types of events have adversely affected and could continue to adversely affect operating results for us and for our portfolio companies. For example, in December 2019, a novel
strain of coronavirus (also known as COVID-19) surfaced in China and has since spread to other countries, including the United States, which has resulted in restrictions on travel and the temporary
closure of many corporate offices, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities and factories in the affected jurisdictions. In addition to these developments having adverse consequences for us and our portfolio companies have been, and could
continue to be, adversely impacted, including through quarantine measures and travel restrictions imposed on its personnel or service providers based or temporarily located in affected countries, or any related health issues of such personnel or
service providers. As the potential impact of COVID-19 is difficult to predict, the extent to which COVID-19 could negatively affect our and our portfolio
companies operating results or the duration of any potential business or supply-chain disruption, is uncertain. Any potential impact to our results of operations will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that
could emerge regarding the duration and severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, all of
which are beyond our control. These potential impacts, while uncertain, could adversely affect our and our portfolio companies operating results. We are currently operating in a period of capital markets disruption and economic uncertainty. The U.S. capital markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruption following the global outbreak of
COVID-19 that began in December 2019. Some economists and major investment banks have expressed concern that the continued spread of the virus globally could lead to a world-wide economic downturn. Disruptions
in the capital markets have increased the spread between the yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets. These and future market disruptions and/or illiquidity would be expected
to have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Unfavorable economic conditions also would be expected to increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a
decision by lenders not to extend credit to us. These events have limited and could continue to limit our investment originations, limit our ability to grow and have a material negative impact on our operating results and the fair values of our debt
and equity investments. If the current period of capital market disruption and instability continues for an extended period of time, there is a
risk that investors in our equity securities may not receive distributions consistent with historical levels or at all or that our distributions may not grow over time and a portion of our distributions may be a return of capital. We intend to make distributions on a monthly basis to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We cannot assure you
that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions. Our ability to pay distributions might be adversely affected by the impact of one or  49

more of the risk factors described in this quarterly report or incorporated herein by reference, including the COVID-19 pandemic described above. For
example, if the temporary closure of many corporate offices, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities and factories in the jurisdictions, including the United States, affected by the COVID-19 pandemic were
to continue for an extended period of time it could result in reduced cash flows to us from our existing portfolio companies, which could reduce cash available for distribution to our stockholders. If we violate certain covenants under our existing
or future credit facilities or other leverage, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. If we declare a distribution and if more stockholders opt to receive cash distributions rather than participate in our dividend reinvestment plan,
we may be forced to sell some of our investments in order to make cash distribution payments. To the extent we make distributions to stockholders that include a return of capital, such portion of the distribution essentially constitutes a return of
the stockholders investment. Although such return of capital may not be taxable, such distributions would generally decrease a stockholders basis in our common stock and may therefore increase such stockholders tax liability for
capital gains upon the future sale of such stock. A return of capital distribution may cause a stockholder to recognize a capital gain from the sale of our common stock even if the stockholder sells its shares for less than the original purchase
price. Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, shares of BDCs have traded below their respective NAVs. If our
shares of common stock trade at a discount from NAV, it could limit our ability to raise equity capital. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the stocks of BDCs as an industry, including shares of our common stock, have traded below NAV, at or near historic lows as a result of concerns over liquidity, leverage restrictions and
distribution requirements. If our common stock trades below its NAV, we will generally not be able to issue additional shares of our common stock at its market price without first obtaining the approval for such issuance from our stockholders and
our independent directors. At our 2019 Annual Stockholders Meeting, our stockholders approved our ability to sell or otherwise issue shares of our common stock, not exceeding 25% of our then outstanding common stock immediately prior to each such
offering, at a price or prices below the then current net asset value per share, in each case subject to the approval of our board of directors and compliance with the conditions set forth in the proxy statement pertaining thereto, during a period
beginning on October 8, 2019 and expiring on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the date of the 2019 Annual Stockholders Meeting and the date of our 2020 Annual Stockholders Meeting. However,
notwithstanding such stockholder approval, since our initial public offering on February 24, 2011, we have not sold any shares of our common stock in an offering that resulted in proceeds to us of less than our then current net asset value per
share. Any offering of our common stock that requires stockholder approval must occur, if at all, within one year after receiving such stockholder approval. If additional funds are not available to us, we could be forced to curtail or cease our new
lending and investment activities, and our net asset value could decrease and our level of distributions could be impacted. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic or other disruptions in the economy, we may not be able to increase our dividends and may reduce or defer our dividends and choose to incur U.S. federal excise tax in order preserve cash and
maintain flexibility. As a BDC, we are not required to make any distributions to shareholders other than in connection with our
election to be taxed as a RIC under subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we must distribute to shareholders for each taxable year at least 90% of our investment company taxable income (i.e., net ordinary
income plus realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses). If we qualify for taxation as a RIC, we generally will not be subject to corporate-level US federal income tax on our investment company
taxable income and net capital gains (i.e., realized net long-term capital gains in excess of realized net short-term capital losses) that we timely distribute to shareholders. We will be subject to a 4% U.S. federal excise tax on undistributed
earnings of a RIC unless we distribute each calendar year at least the sum of (i) 98.0% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses for the
one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year, and (iii) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no
federal income tax.  50

Under the Code, we may satisfy certain of our RIC distributions with dividends paid after
the end of the current year. In particular, if we pay a distribution in January of the following year that was declared in October, November, or December of the current year and is payable to shareholders of record in the current year, the
dividend will be treated for all US federal tax purposes as if it were paid on December 31 of the current year. In addition, under the Code, we may pay dividends, referred to as spillover dividends, that are paid during the
following taxable year that will allow us to maintain our qualification for taxation as a RIC and eliminate our liability for corporate-level U.S. federal income tax. Under these spillover dividend procedures, we may defer distribution of
income earned during the current year until December of the following year. For example, we may defer distributions of income earned during 2020 until as late as December 31, 2021. If we choose to pay a spillover dividend, we will
incur the 4% U.S. federal excise tax on some or all of the distribution. Due to the COVID-19
pandemic or other disruptions in the economy, we may take certain actions with respect to the timing and amounts of our distributions in order to preserve cash and maintain flexibility. For example, we may not be able to increase our
dividends. In addition, we may reduce our dividends and/or defer our dividends to the following taxable year. If we defer our dividends, we may choose to utilize the spillover dividend rules discussed above and incur the 4% U.S. federal
excise tax on such amounts. To further preserve cash, we may combine these reductions or deferrals of dividends with one or more distributions that are payable partially in our stock as discussed below under We may choose to pay
distributions in our own stock, in which case our stockholders may be required to pay U.S. federal income taxes in excess of the cash distributions they receive. We may choose to pay distributions in our own common stock, in which case our stockholders may be required to pay U.S. federal income taxes in excess of
the cash distributions they receive. We may distribute taxable distributions that are payable in cash or shares of our common
stock at the election of each stockholder. Under certain applicable provisions of the Code and the published guidance, distributions payable of a publicly offered RIC that are in cash or in shares of stock at the election of stockholders may be
treated as taxable distributions. The Internal Revenue Service has issued a revenue procedure indicating that this rule will apply if the total amount of cash to be distributed is not less than 20% (which has been temporarily reduced to 10% for
distributions declared on or after April 1, 2020, and on or before December 31, 2020) of the total distribution. Under this revenue procedure, if too many stockholders elect to receive their distributions in cash, the cash available for
distribution must be allocated among the stockholders electing to receive cash (with the balance of distributions paid in stock). If we decide to make any distributions consistent with this revenue procedure that are payable in part in our stock,
taxable stockholders receiving such distributions will be required to include the full amount of the distribution (whether received in cash, our stock, or a combination thereof) as ordinary income (or as long-term capital gain to the extent such
distribution is properly reported as a capital gain distribution) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. stockholder may be required to pay tax with respect to such
distributions in excess of any cash received. If a U.S. stockholder sells the stock it receives as a distribution in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the distribution, depending
on the market price of our stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. stockholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such distributions, including in
respect of all or a portion of such distribution that is payable in stock. If a significant number of our stockholders determine to sell shares of our stock in order to pay taxes owed on distributions, it may put downward pressure on the trading
price of our stock.  Item 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds We did not engage in unregistered sales of securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2020.  Item 3.
Defaults Upon Senior Securities None.  51
