AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations GSV Capital Corp. (the Company, we, our, GSV Capital, or GSV) was formed in September 2010 as a Maryland corporation structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company. The Company has elected to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The Companys investment activities are managed by GSV Asset Management, LLC (GSV Asset Management), and GSV Capital Service Company provides the administrative services
necessary for the Company to operate. The Companys date of inception is January 6, 2011, which is the date it commenced its development stage activities. The Companys shares are currently listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol GSVC. The Company began its investment operations during the second quarter of 2011. On April 13, 2012, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, GSV Capital Lending, LLC (GCL), a Delaware limited liability company, which was formed to originate portfolio loan investments within the state of California. On November 28, 2012, the Company formed the following wholly-owned subsidiaries: GSVC AE Holdings, Inc. (GAE), GSVC AV Holdings, Inc. (GAV), GSVC NG Holdings, Inc. (GNG), GSVC SW Holdings, Inc. (GSW) and GSVC WS Holdings, Inc. (GWS). On July 12, 2013, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, SPNPM Holdings LLC (SPNPM). On August 13, 2013, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, GSVC SVDS Holdings, Inc. (SVDS). Collectively, these entities are known as the GSVC Holdings, all Delaware corporations, formed to hold portfolio
investments. The Companys investment objective is to maximize its portfolios total return, principally by seeking capital gains on its equity and equity-related investments. The Company invests principally in the equity securities of what it believes to be rapidly growing venture capital-backed emerging companies. The Company acquires its investments through direct investments with prospective portfolio companies, secondary marketplaces for private companies and negotiations with selling stockholders. The Company may also invest on an opportunistic basis in select publicly traded equity securities or certain non-U.S. companies
that otherwise meet its investment criteria. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, all of which were of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for any other
interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2015. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Basis of Consolidation Under Article 6 of Regulation S-X and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, the Company is precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company, a controlled operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us and certain entities established for tax purposes where we hold a 100% interest. Accordingly, the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements include its accounts and the accounts of the GSVC Holdings and GCL, its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 19    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) At March 31, 2015, the Company was the majority owner of GSV Sustainability Partners (GSV SP). The Company believes that not consolidating the financial statements of GSV SP, results in a more meaningful presentation of the Companys financial position and results of operations. Further, accounting for GSV SP using the fair value approach is consistent with how the Company accounts for its other investments in portfolio companies. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make a number of significant estimates. These include estimates of fair value of certain assets and liabilities and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reported period. It is likely that changes in these estimates will occur in the near term. The Companys estimates are inherently subjective in nature and actual results could differ materially from such
estimates. Investments The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with GAAP. The Company generally values its assets on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required under the 1940 Act. Securities for which market quotations are readily available on an exchange are valued at the closing price of such security on the valuation date; however, if they are subject to restrictions upon sale (such as to lock-up restrictions), they are discounted accordingly. 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, the Company
determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined adequate, the Company uses the quote obtained. Securities for which reliable market quotations are not readily available or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of GSV Asset Management, the Board or the Valuation Committee of the Board (the Valuation Committee), does not represent fair value, shall each be valued as follows: 1.

          The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment; 2.

          Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with GSV Asset Management senior management; 3.

          An independent third-party valuation firm is engaged by, or on behalf of, the Valuation Committee to conduct independent appraisals and review managements preliminary valuations and make their own independent assessment, for all material investments; 4.

          The Valuation Committee discusses valuations and recommends the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of GSV Asset Management and the independent third-party valuation firm; and, 5.

          The Board then discusses the valuations and determines in good faith the fair value of each investment in the portfolio based upon input of GSV Asset Management, estimates from the independent valuation firm and the recommendations of the Valuation Committee. In making a good faith determination of the fair value of investments, the Company considers valuation methodologies consistent with industry practice. Valuation methods, among other measures and as applicable, may include comparisons to prices from secondary market transactions and recent venture capital financings, analysis of financial ratios and valuation metrics of the portfolio companies that issued such private equity securities to peer companies that are public, analysis of the portfolio companies most recent financial
 20    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) statements and forecasts, and the markets in which the portfolio company does business, and other relevant factors. The Company assigns a weighting based upon the relevance of each factor to determine the fair value of each investment. 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 private equity 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. 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: Level 1.  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 (examples include active exchange-traded equity securities, exchange-traded derivatives, and most U.S. Government and agency securities). Level 2.  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 (examples include corporate and municipal bonds, which trade infrequently); c)

          Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include most over-the-counter derivatives, including foreign exchange forward contracts); 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. Level 3.  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 own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability (examples include certain of the Companys private equity investments). 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). Therefore gains and losses for such assets and liabilities categorized within the Level 3 table set forth in Note 3 may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level
3).
 21    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) 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. Reclassifications impacting Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are reported as transfers in/out of the Level 3 category as of the beginning of the quarter in which the reclassifications occur. An assets categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Equity Investments Equity investments for which market quotations are readily available in an active market are generally valued at the most recently available closing market prices and are classified as Level 1 assets. However, equity investments for which market quotations are readily available, but which are subject to lockup provisions restricting the resale of such investments for a specified period of time, are valued at a discount to the most recently available closing market prices and, accordingly, are classified as Level 2 assets. The Company prices the investment at the closing price on a public exchange as of the measurement date
subject to a discount for a lack of marketability, (DLOM). The DLOM for each portfolio company investment is based upon the market value of publicly traded put options with similar terms as the lock-up. The fair values of the Companys equity investments for which market quotations are not readily available are determined based on various factors and are classified as Level 3 assets. To determine the fair value of a portfolio company for which market quotations are not readily available, the Company may analyze the portfolio companys most recently available historical and projected financial results, public market comparables, and other factors. The Company may also consider other events, including the transaction in which the Company acquired its securities, subsequent equity sales by the Portfolio Company,
mergers or acquisitions affecting the portfolio company, or the completion of an initial public offering (IPO) by the portfolio company. In addition, the Company may consider the trends of the portfolio companys basic financial metrics from the time of its original investment until the measurement date, with material improvement of these metrics indicating a possible increase in fair value, while material deterioration of these metrics may indicate a possible reduction in fair value. The fair values of the Companys portfolio company securities are generally discounted for lack of marketability or when the securities are illiquid, such as when there are restrictions on resale or the lack of an established trading market which will generally be the case for Pre-IPO companies, as well as during any lockup period to which the Company is subject with respect to public companies in its portfolio. See Note 3  INVESTMENTS AT FAIR VALUE. In determining the value of equity or equity-linked securities (including warrants to purchase common or preferred stock) in a portfolio company, the Company considers the rights, preferences and limitations of such securities. In cases where a portfolio companys capital structure includes multiple classes of preferred and common stock and equity-linked securities with different rights and preferences, the Company generally uses an option pricing model to allocate value to each equity-linked security, unless it believes a liquidity event such as an acquisition or a dissolution is imminent, or the portfolio company is
unlikely to continue as a going concern. When equity-linked securities expire worthless, any cost associated with these positions is recognized as a realized loss on investments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. In the event these securities are exercised into common or preferred stock, the cost associated with these securities is reassigned to the cost basis of the new common or preferred stock. These conversions are noted as non-cash operating items on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
 22    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) Debt Investments Given the nature of the Companys current debt investments (excluding U.S. Treasuries), principally convertible and promissory notes issued by venture capital-backed portfolio companies, these investments are Level 3 assets under ASC 820 because there is no known or accessible market or market indexes for these investment securities to be traded or exchanged. The Company values its debt investments at amortized cost. Warrants The Board will ascribe value to warrants based on fair value analyses that can include discounted cash flow analyses, option pricing models, comparable analyses and other techniques as deemed appropriate. Valuation of Other Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of the Companys other, non-investment, financial instruments, consisting of cash, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The embedded derivative liability is carried at fair value. Securities Transactions Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the transaction for the purchase or sale of the securities is entered into by the Company (i.e., trade date). Securities transactions outside conventional channels, such as private transactions, are recorded as of the date the Company obtains the right to demand the securities purchased or to collect the proceeds from a sale, and incurs an obligation to pay for securities purchased or to deliver securities sold, respectively. Portfolio Company Investment Classification GSV is a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. GSV classifies its investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual directly or indirectly owns beneficially more than 25% of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist when a company or individual directly or indirectly owns,
controls or holds the power to vote 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Schedules of Investments as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, for details regarding the nature and composition of the Companys portfolio. Cash The Company places its cash with U.S. Bank, N.A., and Silicon Valley Bank, and at times, cash held in these accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit. The Company may invest a portion of its cash in money market funds, within limitations of the 1940 Act. Restricted Cash As of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively, the Company had Restricted Cash of $41,181 and $48,889 which is included on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Restricted Cash consists of excess funds remaining in escrow from the purchase of the government securities that will be used to make the scheduled interest payments on the Convertible Senior Notes. See Note 9 for further detail. As of March 31, 2015, restricted cash also includes a $25,000 deposit for the Companys fidelity bond.
 23    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) Revenue Recognition The Companys revenue recognition policies are as follows: Sales:  Gains or losses on the sale of investments are determined using the specific identification method. Interest:  Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividends:  Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Investment Transaction Costs and Escrow Deposits Commissions and other costs associated with an investment transaction, including legal expenses not reimbursed by the issuer, are included in the cost basis of purchases and deducted from the proceeds of sales. The Company makes certain acquisitions on the secondary markets which may involve making deposits to escrow accounts until certain conditions are met including the underlying private companys right of first refusal. If the underlying private company does not exercise or assign its right of first refusal and all other conditions are met, then the funds in the escrow account are delivered to the seller and the
account is closed. These transactions are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Escrow deposits. At March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, the Company had no Escrow deposits. Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments Unrealized appreciation or depreciation is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the investment and the cost basis of such investment. U.S. Federal and State Income Taxes The Company was taxed as a regular corporation (a C corporation) under subchapter C of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the Code), for its 2012 taxable year. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements, using statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Certain tax
attributes may be subject to limitations on timing and usage. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In September 2014 the Company filed its 2013 tax return as a regulated investment company RIC and is seeking to be granted RIC status for its 2013 taxable year, however, the Company will not be eligible to elect to be treated as a RIC for the 2013 taxable year unless it is certified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) as principally engaged in the furnishing of capital to other corporations which are principally engaged in the development or exploitation of inventions, technological improvements, new processes, or products not previously generally available for the 2013
taxable year (such certification, an SEC Certification). Although the Company filed an application with the SEC for an SEC Certification for the 2013 taxable year, there can be no assurance that it will receive an SEC Certification. In the event that the Company does not receive such SEC Certification or is otherwise unable to meet all of the qualifications to be treated as a RIC for 2013, it will be taxed as a C Corporation for the 2013 taxable year. Should the Company not qualify as a RIC for 2013, it intends to elect to be treated as a RIC for its 2014 taxable year, if the Companys management determines that it is in its best interests to do so. For example, it may not be in the Companys best interests in the event that it experiences large operating losses or has large loss carryforwards. If the Company opts not to do so or is unable to qualify, it will continue to be taxed as a C corporation under the Code for its 2014 taxable year. Refer to Note 8 for
further details.
 24    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) In order to qualify as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to distribute to its stockholders on a timely basis at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year, and meet certain asset diversification requirements on a quarterly basis. So long as the Company qualifies and maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal and state income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned by the RIC will represent
obligations of the Companys investors and will not be reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. Included in the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements, the GSVC Holdings are taxable subsidiaries, regardless of whether the Company is a RIC. These taxable subsidiaries are not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expenses as a result of their ownership of the portfolio companies. Such income tax expenses and deferred taxes, if any, will be reflected in the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements. At the present time, the Company cannot assure its investors that it will be eligible to elect to be taxed as a RIC for its 2013 taxable year. If it is not treated as a RIC for 2013, the Company will be taxed as a C corporation under the Code for the 2013 taxable year. Until such time as it qualifies and elects to be taxed as a RIC, the Company will provide for income taxes, if any, as a C
Corp. The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a RIC for its 2014 taxable year, if management determines that it is in the Companys best interests to do so. The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its condensed consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position has met the more-likely-than-not threshold. The Company classifies penalties and interest associated with income taxes, if any, as income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors
including, but not limited to, ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Deferred Financing Costs On December 31, 2013, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan Agreement) with Silicon Valley Bank, pursuant to which Silicon Valley Bank agreed to provide the Company with a new $18 million credit facility (the Credit Facility). On September 17, 2013, the Company issued $69,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes (the Convertible Senior Notes) (including $9,000,000 aggregate principal amount issued pursuant to the exercise of the initial purchasers option to purchase additional Convertible Senior Notes). The Company recorded origination expenses related to the Credit Facility and Convertible Senior Notes as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the effective interest method over the respective expected life or maturity. In the event that the Company modifies or extinguishes its debt before maturity, it follows the guidance in ASC 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments (ASC 470-50). For modifications to or exchanges of the Credit Facility, any unamortized deferred costs are expensed. For extinguishments of the Convertible Senior Notes, any unamortized
deferred costs are deducted from the basis of the debt in determining the gain or loss from the extinguishment. Per Share Information Basic earnings (loss) per common share, is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus any potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the period. The Company used the if-converted method to determine the number of potentially dilutive shares outstanding. Refer to Note 5 for further detail.
 25    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   (continued) Capital Accounts Certain capital accounts including undistributed net investment income or loss, accumulated net realized gain or loss, net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, and paid-in capital in excess of par, are adjusted, at least annually, for permanent differences between book and tax. In addition, the character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences are to be reclassified between financial statement reporting and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no
effect on the net assets or net asset value per share and are intended to enable the Companys stockholders to determine the amount of accumulated and undistributed earnings they potentially could receive in the future and on which they could be taxed. NOTE 2  RELATED PARTY ARRANGEMENTS Investment Advisory Agreement The Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with GSV Asset Management (the Advisory Agreement) in connection with its initial public offering. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, GSV Asset Management will be paid a base annual fee of 2% of gross assets, and an annual incentive fee equal to the lesser of (i) 20% of the Companys realized capital gains during each calendar year, if any, calculated on an investment-by-investment basis, subject to a non-compounded preferred return, or hurdle, and a catch-up feature, and (ii) 20% of the Companys realized capital gains, if
any, on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fees. GSV Asset Management earned $1,921,128, and $1,756,196 in base management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively, and $0 in incentive fees for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, the Company accrued incentive fees of $8,211,728, and $969,652, respectively, considering the hypothetical liquidation value of the Companys investment portfolio as of the measurement date. As of March 31, 2015, the Company was owed $105,844 from GSV Asset Management for reimbursement of expenses paid for by the Company that were the responsibility of GSV Asset Management. In addition as of March 31, 2015, the Company owed GSV Asset Management $30,255 for reimbursement of other expenses. As of December 31, 2014, the Company was owed $204,825 from GSV Asset Management for reimbursement of expenses paid for by the Company that were the responsibility of GSV Asset Management. In addition as of December 31, 2014, the Company owed GSV Asset Management $23,396 for reimbursement of other expenses. Administration Agreement The Company entered into an administration agreement with GSV Capital Service Company (the Administration Agreement) to provide administrative services, including furnishing the Company with office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping, record keeping services and other administrative services, in connection with its initial public offering and ongoing operations. The Company reimburses GSV Capital Service Company an allocable portion of overhead and other expenses in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement. There were $802,396, and $908,532 in such costs incurred under the
Administration Agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 2  RELATED PARTY ARRANGEMENTS   (continued) License Agreement The Company entered into a license agreement with GSV Asset Management pursuant to which GSV Asset Management has agreed to grant the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name GSV. Under this agreement, the Company has the right to use the GSV name for so long as the Advisory Agreement with GSV Asset Management is in effect. Other than with respect to this limited license, the Company has no legal right to the GSV name. NOTE 3  INVESTMENTS AT FAIR VALUE The Companys investments in portfolio companies consist primarily of equity securities (such as common stock, preferred stock and warrants to purchase common and preferred stock) and to a lesser extent, debt securities, issued by private and publicly traded companies. The Company may from time to time, invest in U.S. Treasury Securities. Non-portfolio investments represent investments in U.S. Treasury Securities. At March 31, 2015, the Company had 99 positions in 52 portfolio companies. At December 31, 2014, the Company had 99 positions in 52 portfolio companies.

 28    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 3  INVESTMENTS AT FAIR VALUE   (continued) Significant Unobservable Inputs for Level 3 Assets and Liabilities In accordance with ASC 820, the tables below provide quantitative information about the Companys fair value measurements of its Level 3 assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the table below, according to the Companys valuation policy, the Company may also use other valuation techniques and methodologies when determining the Companys fair value measurements. The below table is not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather provides information on the significant Level 3 inputs as they relate to the Companys fair value
measurements. To the extent an unobservable input is not reflected in the table below, such input is deemed insignificant or is not applicable with respect to the Companys Level 3 fair value measurements as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Significant changes in the inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement, depending on the input and the materiality of the investment.

 The significant unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of the assets and liabilities are shown above. Increases (decreases) in revenue multiples, EBIT multiples, time to expiration, and stock price/strike price would result in higher (lower) fair values all else equal. Decreases (increases) in discount rates, volatility, and annual risk rates, would result in higher (lower) fair values all else equal. The Company applied the binomial lattice model to value the embedded derivative using a with-and-without method, where the value of the Convertible Senior Notes including the embedded derivative, is defined as the with, and the value of the Convertible Senior Notes excluding the embedded derivative, is defined as the without. This method estimates the value of the embedded derivative by looking at the difference in the values between the Convertible Senior Notes with the embedded derivative and the value of the Convertible Senior Notes without the embedded derivative. The lattice model
requires the following inputs: (i) strike price; (ii) estimated stock volatility; and (iii) annual risk rate. The aggregate values of Level 3 portfolio investments and embedded derivative changed during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014 as follows:  Three months ended March 31, 2015 (Unaudited)Common Stock

 The portfolio companies in which the Company invests periodically offer their shares in initial public offerings, (IPOs). The Companys shares in the portfolio companies are typically subject to lock-up agreements for 180 days following the IPO. Upon the IPO date, the Company transfers its investment from level 3 to level 2 due to the presence of an active market, limited by the lock-up agreement. The Company prices the investment at the closing price on a public exchange as of the measurement date subject to a discount for a lack of marketability, (DLOM). The DLOM for each portfolio company
investment is based upon the market value of publicly traded put options with similar terms as the lock-up. Once the lock-up expires, the Company typically transfers the investment from level 2 to level 1 and prices the investment based on the closing price on a public exchange as of the measurement date. In situations where the lock-up

          Financial Highlights for periods of less than one year are annualized and the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets and net investment loss to average net assets are adjusted accordingly. Non-recurring expenses are not annualized. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, March 31, 2014, the Company did not incur any non-recurring expenses. Because the ratios are calculated for the Companys common stock taken as a whole, an individual investors ratios may vary from these ratios. NOTE 8  INCOME TAX The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries account for income taxes as C Corporations that are subject to federal and state corporate income taxes. These subsidiaries hold certain pass-through companies in connection with the Companys proposed qualification as a RIC. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, neither the Company nor its subsidiaries recorded a current income tax expense or benefit since they had net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards from prior years and a net operating loss for these periods. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company did not recognize a current income tax expense or benefit for the same reasons. The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries recorded deferred income tax benefits and expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015, which consisted primarily of temporary differences related to certain expenses, net operating losses, capital losses and temporary differences arising from differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis in underlying investments. For the three months ended March 31, 2015,
 33    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 8  INCOME TAX   (continued) the Company recognized a net deferred income tax provision of $11,544,456, which is shown as a benefit for taxes on net investment loss of $5,223,611, a provision for taxes on net realized gains of $5,397,074 and a provision for taxes on unrealized appreciation of $11,370,993 on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recognized a net deferred income tax provision of $29,366, which is shown as a benefit for taxes on net investment loss of $2,012,914, a provision for taxes on net realized gains of $3,238,531 and a benefit for taxes on unrealized depreciation of
$1,254,983 on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For federal and state purposes, a portion of the Companys net operating loss carryforwards and basis differences may be subject to limitations on annual utilization in case of a change in ownership, as defined by federal and state law. The amount of such limitations, if any, has not been determined. Accordingly, the amount of such tax attributes available to offset future profits may be significantly less than the actual amounts of the tax attributes. In September 2014, the Company filed its 2013 tax return as a regulated investment company RIC and is seeking to be granted RIC status for the 2013 taxable year. However, it will not be eligible to elect to be treated as a RIC for the 2013 taxable year unless it is certified by the SEC as principally engaged in the furnishing of capital to other corporations which are principally engaged in the development or exploitation of inventions, technological improvements, new processes, or products not previously generally available for the 2013 taxable year (such certification, an SEC
Certification). Although it filed an application with the SEC for an SEC Certification for the 2013 taxable year, there can be no assurance that it will receive an SEC Certification. In the event that it does not receive such SEC Certification or it is otherwise unable to meet all of the qualifications to be treated as a RIC for 2013, it will be taxed as a C Corporation for the 2013 taxable year. Should it not qualify as a RIC for 2013, it intends to elect to be treated as a RIC for the 2014 and 2015 taxable year, if management determines that it is in its best interests to do so. For example, it may not be in the Companys best interests in the event that it experiences large operating losses or have large loss carryforwards. If the Company opts not to do so or it is unable to qualify, it will continue to be taxed as a C corporation under the Code for the 2014 taxable year and 2015 taxable year. As a RIC, the Company generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that the Company distributes to its stockholders as dividends and claims dividends paid deductions to compute taxable income. A RIC will not be eligible to utilize net operating losses. However, the net operating losses may become available should the Company disqualify as a RIC and become a C corporation in the future. In the event that the Company qualifies as a RIC, the Company itself will no longer be required to recognize deferred tax assets or liabilities, other than those that may be
associated with its taxable subsidiaries, the GSVC Holdings. Upon converting from a C corporation to a RIC, the Company may be required to pay a corporate-level tax on the net amount of the net built-in gains, if any, in its assets (the amount by which the net fair market value of the Companys assets exceeds the net adjusted basis in its assets) as of the date of conversion (i.e., the beginning of the first taxable year that the Company qualifies as a RIC) to the extent that such gains are recognized by the Company during the applicable recognition period, which is the ten-year period (or shorter applicable period) beginning on the date of conversion. Alternatively, the Company
may make a special election to cause the gain to be recognized at the time of the conversion. In that event, the Company would be required to recognize such built-in gain as if its assets were sold at the time of the conversion. The Company does not anticipate making this election at this time. Any corporate-level built-in gain tax is payable at the time the built-in gains are recognized (which generally will be the years in which the built-in gain assets are sold in a taxable transaction). The amount of this tax will vary depending on the assets that are actually sold by the Company in this 10-year period, the actual amount of net built-in gain or loss present in those assets as of the date of conversion, and the effective tax rates at such times. The payment of any such corporate-level tax on built-in gain will be a company expense that will reduce the amount available for
 34    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 8  INCOME TAX   (continued) distribution to stockholders. The built-in gains tax is calculated by determining the RICs net unrealized built-in gain, if any, by which the fair market value of the assets of the RIC at the beginning of its first RIC year exceeds the aggregate adjusted basis of such assets at that time. As of January 1, 2013, the Company did not have net unrealized built-in gain. Accordingly, the built-in gains tax will not apply should the Company elect to be treated as a RIC for the 2013 tax year. Should the Company not obtain SEC Certification for the 2013 tax year and it elects to be a RIC for the 2014 tax year, then it is expected
that it should not incur built-in gains tax for the 2014 tax year due to the fact that there are sufficient net capital loss carryforwards alone to completely offset recognized built-in gains as well as available net operating losses. In addition to meeting other requirements, the Company must generally distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income to qualify for the special treatment accorded to a RIC and maintain its RIC status. As part of maintaining RIC status, undistributed taxable income (subject to a 4% excise tax) pertaining to a given fiscal year may be distributed up to 12 months subsequent to the end of that fiscal year, provided such dividends are declared prior to the later of (1) the fifteenth day of the ninth month following the close of that fiscal year or (2) the extended due date for filing the federal income tax return
for that fiscal year. The Company believes that its status as a RIC remains uncertain. For purposes of its financial statements, the Company has not recognized any tax benefits as a RIC and continued to provide tax liabilities as though it were a C Corporation through the reporting period including liabilities associated with the uncertain tax position, which arise from taxable temporary differences. As a result of the 2013 tax return filing as a RIC, during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company increased gross unrecognized tax benefits to $17,489,665 of which $16,288,846 of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect
its effective tax rate by reducing net deferred tax liability. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the full amount of unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced within the next 12 months based upon the Company satisfying the RIC Asset and Income tests for the 2014 tax year. The Company identified its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. federal and California and may be subject to the taxing authorities examination for the tax years 2011 ~ 2014 and 2010 ~ 2014, respectively. The Company accrues all interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as incurred. As of March 31, 2015, there were no interest or penalties incurred related to uncertain tax positions. NOTE 9  LONG TERM LIABILITIES Convertible senior notes payable On September 17, 2013, the Company issued $69,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes (the Convertible Senior Notes) (including $9,000,000 aggregate principal amount issued pursuant to the exercise of the initial purchasers option to purchase additional Convertible Senior Notes). The Convertible Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.25% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2014. The Convertible Senior Notes are convertible into shares of the Companys common stock based on an initial conversion
rate of 61.5091 shares of the Companys common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.26 per share of common stock. The Convertible Senior Notes mature on September 15, 2018, unless previously purchased or converted in accordance with their terms. The Company does not have the right to redeem the Convertible Senior Notes prior to maturity. The terms of the offering require the Company to place a portion of the proceeds of the offering in an escrow account (the Interest Escrow) with U.S. Bank National Association (the Trustee) under the indenture pursuant to which the notes are issued. Funds in the escrow account will be invested in government securities and will be used to make the first six scheduled interest payments on the notes, unless the Company elects to make the interest payments from the Companys available funds. The interest payments on the Convertible Senior Notes will be secured by a pledge of the Companys interest
in the escrow account. In accordance with the Interest
 35    TABLE OF CONTENTS GSV CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 9  LONG TERM LIABILITIES   (continued) Escrow, the Company deposited $10,867,500 in an escrow account with the Trustee. These funds were used to purchase U.S. Treasury Strips (Government Securities) with an original cost of $10,845,236. At March 31, 2015, the remaining government securities are shown on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and have an amortized cost of $5,478,126. The excess funds of $16,181 held in escrow will be used to secure the payment of the notes and is included on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Restricted Cash, as well as a $25,000 deposit for the Companys Fidelity Bond.
Proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes were offset by offering costs of approximately $3,585,929 that are being amortized over the term of the notes in accordance with ASC 470 Debt.As of March 31, 2015, of the total offering costs of $3,585,929 incurred, $2,693,379 remains to be amortized and is included within deferred financing costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of March 31, 2015, the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes exceeded the value of the underlying shares multiplied by the per share closing price of the Companys common stock. The Convertible Senior Notes are the Companys senior, unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Senior Notes, equal in right of payment to any future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated to the Convertible Senior Notes, junior (other than to the extent of the interest escrow) to any future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally junior to all future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by the Companys
subsidiaries. Embedded Derivative The Convertible Senior Notes contain an interest make-whole payment provision pursuant to which holders who convert their notes prior to September 15, 2016 will receive, in addition to a number of shares the Companys common stock calculated at the applicable conversion rate for principal amount of notes being converted, the cash proceeds from sale by the escrow agent of the portion of the government securities in the escrow account that are remaining with respect to any of the first six interest payments that have not been made on the notes being converted. Under ASC 815-10-15-74(a), the interest make-whole payment is
considered an embedded derivative and is separated from the host contract, the Convertible Senior Notes, and carried at fair value. The Company used a binomial lattice model to estimate the fair value of the embedded derivative in the Convertible Senior Notes. A binomial lattice model generates potential outcomes at various points in time, starting from the date of valuation until the expiration date of the embedded derivative. The estimated fair value of the embedded derivative as of March 31, 2015 is $1,000 as shown on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Credit Facility The Company entered into the Loan Agreement, effective December 31, 2013, with Silicon Valley Bank to provide the Company with a new $18 million Credit Facility. Under the Credit Facility, the Company is permitted to borrow an amount equal to the lesser of $18 million or 20% of the Companys then-current net asset value. The Credit Facility, among other things, matures on December 31, 2016, and bears interest at a per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 4.75% and (ii) 8.0%. In addition, a fee of $180,000 per annum (1.0% of the $18 million revolving line of credit) is charged under the Loan Agreement. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company must repay all outstanding borrowings so that there is at least a 30-day period every twelve months during which the Company has no balance outstanding. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company must repay all outstanding borrowings so that there is at least a
30-day period every twelve months during which the Company has no balance outstanding. Under the Loan Agreement, the Company has made certain customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements, and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities. The Loan Agreement includes usual and customary events of default for credit facilities of this

AND SUBSIDIARIES  NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) NOTE 9  LONG TERM LIABILITIES   (continued) nature, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change of control, and the occurrence of a material adverse effect. The Credit Facility is secured by all of the Companys property and assets, except for the Companys assets pledged to secure certain obligations in connection with the Companys issuance, in September 2013, of the Convertible Senior Notes and, as provided for in the Loan Agreement, as may be pledged in connection with any future issuance by the Company of Convertible Senior Notes on substantially similar terms. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had $16,000,000 of borrowings under the Credit Facility, and $2,000,000 unused under the Credit Facility. Borrowing under the Credit Facility is subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In addition, under the Loan Agreement, and as provided for therein, the Company has agreed not to incur certain additional permitted indebtedness in an aggregate amount exceeding 50% of the Companys then-applicable net asset value.

          The average net share price is the net share price realized after deducting all commissions and fees on the sale(s). The Company is presently in the final stages of negotiations with respect to several private company investments that it anticipates entering into within the next 30 to 60 days, subject to satisfaction of applicable closing conditions. In the case of secondary market transactions, such closing conditions may include approval of the issuer, waiver or failure to exercise rights of first refusal by the issuer and/or its stockholders and termination rights by the seller or the Company. Equity investments made through the secondary market may involve making deposits in escrow accounts until the applicable closing conditions are
satisfied, at which time the escrow accounts will close and such equity investments will be effectuated. From March 31, 2015 through May 11, 2015, the Company has not made any such escrow deposits. Line of Credit As of May 11, 2015, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility, and $18 million unused under the Credit Facility.
 37    TABLE OF CONTENTS Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Forward-Looking Statements This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about GSV Capital, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as anticipates, expects, intends, plans, will, may, continue, believes, seeks, estimates, would, could,
should, targets, projects, and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward looking statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to: 

          our future operating results; 

          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; 

          the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives; 

          our expected financings and investments; 

          the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; and 

          the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies. 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 could impair our portfolio companies ability to continue to operate, which could lead to the loss of some or all of our equity investments in such portfolio companies, 

          an economic downturn could disproportionately impact the market sectors in which a significant portion of our portfolio is concentrated, causing us to suffer losses in our portfolio, 

          an inability to access the equity markets could impair our investment activities, 

          interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly if we opt to use leverage as part of our investment strategy, and 

          the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify in Risk Factors and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in our filings with the SEC. Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described or identified in Risk Factors and elsewhere in this quarterly
report on Form 10-Q. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
 38    TABLE OF CONTENTS The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes thereto contain elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Overview We are an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company under the 1940 Act. Our investment objective is to maximize our portfolios total return, principally by seeking capital gains on our equity and equity-related investments. We invest principally in the equity securities of what we believe to be rapidly growing venture capital-backed emerging companies. We acquire our investments through direct investments with prospective portfolio companies, secondary marketplaces for private companies and negotiations with selling
stockholders. We may also invest on an opportunistic basis in select publicly-traded equity securities or certain non-U.S. companies that otherwise meet our investment criteria. Our investment activities are managed by GSV Asset Management, and GSV Capital Service Company provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate. Our investment philosophy is premised on a disciplined approach of identifying high-growth emerging companies across several key industry themes which may include, among others, social mobile, cloud computing and big data, internet commerce, sustainability and education technology. Our investment advisers investment decisions are based on a disciplined analysis of available information regarding each potential portfolio companys business operations, focusing on the companys growth potential, the quality of recurring revenues and cash flow and cost structures, as well as an understanding of key market
fundamentals. Many of the companies that our investment adviser evaluates have financial backing from top tier venture capital funds or other financial or strategic sponsors. We seek to deploy capital primarily in the form of non-controlling equity and equity-related investments, including common stock, warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity, which may or may not be convertible into a portfolio companys common equity, and convertible debt securities with a significant equity component. Investments The value of our investment portfolio will change over time due to changes in the fair value of our underlying investments, as well as changes in the composition of our portfolio resulting from purchases and sales of new and follow-on investments. The fair value, as of March 31, 2015, of all of our portfolio investments, excluding U.S. Treasury Bills and Strips, was $401,423,763. The following table summarizes the investment purchases we funded during the three months ended March 31, 2015.  Portfolio Company (Industry)

          The per-share figures noted are based on a weighted-average of 19,320,100 and 19,320,100 shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 40    TABLE OF CONTENTS Results of Operations Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014 Investment Income Investment income increased to $59,024 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to $40,815 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to the addition of new loans during the three months ended March 31, 2015 versus the three months ended March 31, 2014. Operating Expenses Total operating expenses increased to $12,852,430, for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to $4,848,543 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to a significant increase in accrued incentive fees as well as increases in interest expense and investment management fees. The increase in accrued incentive fees resulted from the appreciation of our portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2015 relative to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increased management fees are a result of the growth in our total assets, which primarily results from the growth of our investment
portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2015 relative to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increased interest expense resulted from our borrowings under the Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2015. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 we did not borrow under the Credit Facility. Benefit for Taxes on Net Investment Loss For the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recognized a benefit for taxes on net investment loss of $5,223,611, compared to a corresponding benefit of $2,012,914 for three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in benefit for taxes on net investment loss is due primarily to the significant increase in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. Net Investment Loss For the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recognized a net investment loss of $7,569,795, compared to a corresponding net investment loss of $2,794,814 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in net investment loss is a result of the increased operating expenses discussed above partially offset by the increased benefit for taxes on net investment loss. Net Realized Gains on Investments There was a significant increase in realized gains for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, net realized gains on investments were $13,218,403, which resulted primarily from the sale of Twitter, Inc. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we had $7,931,745 of realized capital gains, which resulted primarily from the sales of Facebook, Inc. and Control4 Corporation. Provision for Taxes on Net Realized Capital Gains For the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, we recognized provisions of $5,397,074 and $3,238,531, respectively, for taxes on net realized capital gains. The increase in the provision for taxes on net realized capital gains is due to the significant increase in net realized gains for the three months ended March 31, 2015 relative to the three months ended March 31, 2014.

          Other represents all investments (including U.S. Treasury Bills and U.S. Treasury Strips) whose individual change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) was less than $1,000,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. (Provision)/Benefit for taxes on Unrealized Appreciation/Depreciation of Investments For the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recognized a provision for taxes of $11,370,993 on unrealized appreciation of investments. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recognized a benefit for taxes of $1,254,983 on unrealized depreciation of investments. The change between the two periods is due to the fact that the change in unrealized appreciation from investments increased from $(3.1) million to $27.8 million as shown in the table above. The change in unrealized appreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to the appreciation of Twitter, Inc., Dataminr, Inc. and 2U, Inc. (f/k/a 2tor, Inc.), partially offset by the deprecation of Gilt Groupe Holdings, Inc. Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $16,664,622. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $79,704. The rise in increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, resulted from the change in unrealized appreciation of the portfolio as a whole, as well as increased realized gains, which were partially offset by a significant increase in operating expenses. The per-share figures noted above are based on a weighted-average of 19,320,100 shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from the net proceeds of public offerings of our equity and debt securities, advances from our Credit Facility, as well as sales of our investments.
 42    TABLE OF CONTENTS Our primary use of cash is to make investments and to pay our operating expenses. Our current policy is to maintain cash reserves and liquid securities in an amount sufficient to pay our operating expenses, including investment management fees and costs incurred under the administration agreement, for approximately two years. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, our operating expenses were $12,852,430, and $4,848,543, respectively.  Cash reserves and Liquid securities

During these black-out periods, we are unable to sell these securities under Canadian and U.S. Securities law. (5)

          As of March 31, 2014, this balance represented our common shares of Chegg, Inc. which were subject to lock-up restrictions as of March 31, 2014. This balance also includes our common shares of Cricket Media (f/k/a ePals Inc.) and 2U, Inc. (f/k/a 2tor, Inc.). During the majority of the year, these shares are freely tradable, however at certain times during the year, these shares are subject to black-out periods as a result of Michael Moes seats on the Boards of these portfolio companies. During these black-out periods, we are unable to sell these securities under Canadian and U.S. Securities law. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, cash and cash equivalents increased from approximately $3.5 million at the beginning of the period, to approximately $8.1 million, at the end of the period. Net cash provided by operating activities for the period, consisting primarily of the items described in  Results of Operations, was approximately $6.6 million, reflecting purchases of portfolio investments of approximately $9.0 million and proceeds from sales of investments of approximately $19.6 million. During the period, net cash used by financing activities was approximately $2.0 million, primarily
reflecting repayments of borrowings under the Credit Facility. Equity Issuances & Debt Capital Activities There were no sales of our equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2015, we had $16,000,000 of borrowings under the Credit Facility, and $2,000,000 unused under the Credit Facility.

The payable for securities purchased was subsequently repaid on April 2, 2015 when the United States Treasury Bill matured and the $10.5 million margin deposit which was posted as collateral was returned. (2)

          Total unused amount of the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2015 was $2,000,000. (3)

          The weighted average interest rate incurred under the Credit Facility was 8.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As of March 31, 2015, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices. However, we may employ hedging and other risk management techniques in the future. Distribution Policy The timing and amount of our dividends, if any, will be determined by our board of directors. Any dividends to our stockholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. We intend to focus on making capital gains-based investments from which we will derive primarily capital gains. As a consequence, we do not anticipate that we will pay dividends on a quarterly basis or become a predictable distributor of dividends, and we expect that our dividends, if any, will be much less consistent than the dividends of other business development companies that primarily make debt investments. However, if there are
earnings or realized capital gains to be distributed, we intend to declare and pay a dividend at least annually. We may elect to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a RIC effective for the 2013 tax year. In September, 2014 we filed our 2013 tax return as a RIC and are seeking to be granted RIC status for our 2013 taxable year, however, we will not be eligible to elect to be treated as a RIC for the 2013 taxable year unless we are certified by the SEC as principally engaged in the furnishing of capital to other corporations which are principally engaged in the development or exploitation of inventions, technological improvements, new processes, or products not previously generally available for the 2013 taxable year.
Although we filed an application with the SEC for an SEC Certification for the 2013 taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will receive an SEC Certification. In the event that we do not receive such SEC Certification or we are otherwise unable to meet all of the qualifications to be treated as a RIC for 2013, we will be taxed as a C Corporation for the 2013 taxable year. To that end, for purposes of our financial statements, we have accrued taxes as though we were a C Corporation for the 2013 taxable year, in the event we are unable to qualify as a RIC. Should we not qualify as a RIC for 2013, we intend to elect to be treated as a RIC for our 2014 taxable year, if management determines that it is in our best interests to do so. For example, it may not be in our best interests in the event that we experience large operating losses or have large loss carryforwards. If we opt not to do so or are unable to qualify, we will continue to be taxed as a C corporation under the Code for
our 2014 taxable year. See U.S. Federal and State Income Taxes. Our current intention is to make any distributions out of assets legally available therefrom in additional shares of our common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan, unless you elect to receive your dividends and/or long-term capital gains distributions in cash. Under the dividend reinvestment plan, if a stockholder owns shares of common stock registered in its own name, the stockholder will have all cash distributions (net of any withholding) automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock unless the stockholder opts out of our dividend reinvestment plan by delivering a written notice to our dividend
paying agent prior to the record date of the next dividend or distribution. Any distributions reinvested under the plan will nevertheless remain taxable to the U.S. stockholder, although no cash distribution has been made. As a result, if you do not
 44    TABLE OF CONTENTS elect to opt out of the dividend reinvestment plan, you will be required to pay applicable federal, state and local taxes on any reinvested dividends even though you will not receive a corresponding cash distribution. In addition, reinvested dividends have the effect of increasing our gross assets, which may correspondingly increase the management fee payable to our investment adviser. If you hold shares in the name of a broker or financial intermediary, you should contact the broker or financial intermediary regarding your election to receive distributions in cash. Borrowings Convertible Senior Notes payable On September 17, 2013, we issued $69,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes (including $9,000,000 aggregate principal amount issued pursuant to the exercise of the initial purchasers option to purchase additional Convertible Senior Notes). The Convertible Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.25% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2014. The Convertible Senior Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock based on an initial conversion rate of 61.5091 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal
amount of Convertible Senior Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.26 per share of common stock. The Convertible Senior Notes mature on September 15, 2018, unless previously purchased or converted in accordance with their terms. We do not have the right to redeem the Convertible Senior Notes prior to maturity. The terms of the offering require us to place a portion of the proceeds of the offering in an escrow account (the Interest Escrow) with U.S. Bank National Association (the Trustee) under the indenture pursuant to which the notes are issued. Funds in the escrow account will be invested in government securities and will be used to make the first six scheduled interest payments on the notes, unless we elect to make the interest payments from our available funds. The interest payments on the Convertible Senior Notes will be secured by a pledge of our interest in the escrow account. In accordance with the
Interest Escrow, we deposited $10,867,500 in an escrow account with the Trustee. These funds were used to purchase U.S. Treasury Strips (Government Securities) with an original cost of $10,845,236. At March 31, 2015, the remaining government securities are shown on the Condensed Consolidated Schedule of Investments and have an amortized cost of $5,478,126. The excess funds of $16,181 held in escrow will be used to secure the payment of the notes and is included on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Restricted Cash, as well as a $25,000 deposit for the Companys Fidelity Bond. Proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes were offset by offering costs of approximately $3,585,929 that are being amortized over the term of the notes in accordance with ASC 470 Debt.As of March 31, 2015, of the total offering costs of $3,585,929 incurred, $2,693,379 remains to be amortized and is included within deferred
financing costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of March 31, 2015, the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes exceeded the value of the underlying shares multiplied by the per share closing price of our common stock. The Convertible Senior Notes are our senior, unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Senior Notes, equal in right of payment to any future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated to the Convertible Senior Notes, junior (other than to the extent of the interest escrow) to any future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally junior to all future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by our subsidiaries. Embedded Derivative The Convertible Senior Notes contain an interest make-whole payment provision pursuant to which holders who convert their notes prior to September 15, 2016 will receive, in addition to a number of shares of our common stock calculated at the applicable conversion rate for principal amount of notes being converted, the cash proceeds from sale by the escrow agent of the portion of the government securities in the escrow account that are remaining with respect to any of the first six interest payments that have not been made on the notes being converted. Under ASC 815-10-15-74(a), the interest make-whole payment is considered an
embedded derivative and is separated from the host contract, the Convertible Senior Notes, and carried at fair value.
 45    TABLE OF CONTENTS Credit Facility We entered into the Loan Agreement, effective December 31, 2013, with Silicon Valley Bank to provide us with a new $18 million Credit Facility. Under the Credit Facility, we are permitted to borrow an amount equal to the lesser of $18 million or 20% of our then-current net asset value. The Credit Facility, among other things, matures on December 31, 2016, and bears interest at a per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 4.75% and (ii) 8.0%. In addition, a fee of $180,000 per annum (1.0% of the $18 million revolving line of credit) is charged under the Loan Agreement. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we must repay all outstanding borrowings so that there is at least a 30-day period every twelve months during which we have no balance outstanding. Under the Loan Agreement, we have made certain customary representations and warranties and we are required to comply with various
covenants, reporting requirements, and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities. The Loan Agreement includes usual and customary events of default for credit facilities of this nature, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change of control, and the occurrence of a material adverse effect. As of March 31, 2015, we had $16,000,000 of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is secured by all of our property and assets, except for our assets pledged to secure certain obligations in connection with our issuance, in September 2013, of the Convertible Senior Notes and, as provided for in the Loan Agreement, as may be pledged in connection with any future issuance by us of convertible senior notes on substantially similar terms. Borrowing under the Credit Facility is subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In addition, under the Loan Agreement, and as provided for therein, we have agreed not to incur certain additional permitted indebtedness in an aggregate amount exceeding 50% of our then-applicable net asset value. Related Party Transactions We entered into an investment advisory agreement with GSV Asset Management (the Advisory Agreement) in connection with our initial public offering. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, GSV Asset Management will be paid a base annual fee of 2.00% of gross assets, and an annual incentive fee equal to the lesser of (i) 20% of GSV Capitals realized capital gains during each calendar year, if any, calculated on an investment-by-investment basis, subject to a non-compounded preferred return, or hurdle, and a catch-up feature, and (ii) 20% of GSV Capitals realized capital gains, if any,
on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fees. GSV Asset Management earned $1,921,128, and $1,756,196 in base management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively, and $0 and $0 in incentive fees for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, we accrued incentive fees of $8,211,728, and $969,652, respectively, considering the hypothetical liquidation value of our investment portfolio as of the measurement date. As of March 31, 2015, we were owed $105,844 from GSV Asset Management for reimbursement of expenses paid for by us that were the responsibility of GSV Asset Management. In addition as of March 31, 2015, we owed GSV Asset Management $30,255 for reimbursement of other expenses. As of December 31, 2014, we were owed $204,825 from GSV Asset Management for reimbursement of expenses paid for by us that were the responsibility of GSV Asset Management. In addition as of December 31, 2014, we owed GSV Asset Management $23,396 for reimbursement of other expenses. In February 2013, Mark Moe, who is the brother of our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Moe, joined NestGSV, Inc. (d.b.a. GSV Labs, Inc.), one of our portfolio companies, as a Vice President of Business Development, Global Expansion. On August 26, 2014, Diane Flynn, who is the spouse of our president, Mark Flynn, joined NestGSV, Inc. (d.b.a. GSV Labs, Inc.), on a contract basis as Chief Marketing Officer. In
 46    TABLE OF CONTENTS February 2015, she became the Chief Marketing Officer on a full time basis. Ron Johnson, the CEO of Enjoy Technology, Inc., is the brother in law of our president, Mark Flynn. We entered into an Administration Agreement with GSV Capital Service Company (the Administration Agreement) to provide administrative services, including furnishing us with office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping services and other administrative services, in connection with our initial public offering. We reimburse GSV Capital Service Company an allocable portion of overhead and other expenses in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement. There were $802,396, and $908,532 in such costs incurred under the Administration Agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014,
respectively. In addition, our executive officers and directors, and the principals of our investment adviser, GSV Asset Management, serve or may serve as officers and directors of entities that operate in a line of business similar to our own, including new entities that may be formed in the future. Accordingly, they may have obligations to investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which might not be in the best interests of us or our stockholders. For example, GSV Asset Management currently manages GSV X Fund, a global long/short absolute return fund, and Coursera@GSV Fund, LP, a special purpose vehicle comprised of an underlying
investment in Coursera stock, and will likely manage one or more private funds in the future. While the investment focus of each of these entities may be different from our investment objective, it is likely that new investment opportunities that meet our investment objective will come to the attention of one of these entities, or new entities that will likely be formed in the future in connection with another investment advisory client or program, and, if so, such opportunity might not be offered, or otherwise made available, to us. However, our executive officers, directors and investment adviser intend to treat us in a fair and equitable manner consistent with their applicable duties under law so that we will not be
disadvantaged in relation to any other particular client. In addition, while GSV Asset Management anticipates that it will from time to time identify investment opportunities that are appropriate for both GSV Capital and the other funds that are currently or in the future may be managed by GSV Asset Management, to the extent it does identify such opportunities, GSV Asset Management has established an allocation policy to ensure that GSV Capital has priority over such other funds. Our Board of Directors will monitor on a quarterly basis any such allocation of investment opportunities between GSV Capital and any such other funds. GSV Asset Management is the owner of the GSV name and marks, which we are permitted to use pursuant to a non-exclusive license agreement between us and GSV Asset Management. GSV Asset Management and its principals also use and may permit other entities to use the GSV name and marks in connection with businesses and activities unrelated to our operations. The use of the GSV name and marks in connection with businesses and activities unrelated to our operations may not be in the best interest of us or our stockholder and may result in actual or perceived conflicts of interest. In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with portfolio companies that may be considered related party transactions. In order to ensure that we do not engage in any prohibited transactions with any persons affiliated with us, we have implemented certain written policies and procedures whereby our executive officers screen each of our transactions for any possible affiliations between the proposed portfolio investment, us, companies controlled by us and our executive officers and directors. We also adopted a Code of Ethics which applies to, among others, our senior officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as all of our officers, directors and employees. Our Code of Ethics requires that all employees and directors avoid any conflict, or the appearance of a conflict, between an individuals personal interests and our interests. Pursuant to our Code of Ethics, each employee and director must disclose any conflicts of interest, or actions or relationships that might give rise to a conflict, to our Chief Compliance Officer. Our board of directors is charged with
approving any waivers under our Code of Ethics. As required by the NASDAQ corporate governance listing standards, the Audit Committee of our board of directors is also required to review and approve any transactions with related parties (as such term is defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K).
 47    TABLE OF CONTENTS Critical Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with GAAP, and include the accounts of ours and our consolidated subsidiaries. We are an investment company following accounting and reporting guidance in ASC 946. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the operations and financial condition as of and for the periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company does not consolidate portfolio company investments. Valuation of Investments at Fair Value We carry our investments at fair value, as determined in good faith by our board of directors, in accordance with GAAP. Fair value is the price that one would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment or liability. GAAP emphasizes that valuation techniques should maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the entity and should not be
limited to information that is only available to the entity making the fair value determination, or to a small group of users. Observable market inputs should be readily available to participants in that market. In addition, observable market inputs should include a level of transparency that is reliable and verifiable. GAAP fair value measurement guidance classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy: Level 1.  Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that we have the ability to access. Level 2.  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; 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. Level 3.  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 own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. An assets categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Securities that are publicly traded are generally valued at the close price on the valuation date; however, if they remain subject to lock-up restrictions they are discounted accordingly. Securities that are not publicly traded or for which there are no readily available market quotations are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. In connection with that determination, portfolio company valuations are prepared using the most currently available data. As appropriate, we obtain updates on each portfolio companys financial performance, including information such as economic and industry trends, new product development, and other operational issues.
 48    TABLE OF CONTENTS In making our good faith determination of the fair value of investments, we consider valuation methodologies consistent with industry practice, including but not limited to (i) publicly available information regarding the valuation of the securities based on recent sales in comparable transactions of private companies, (ii) when management believes there are comparable companies that are publicly traded, a review of these publicly traded companies and applicable market multiples of their equity securities and, (iii) an income approach that estimates value based on the expectation of future cash flows that an asset or business
will generate. We engage independent valuation firms to perform valuations of our investments that are not publicly traded or for which there are no readily available market quotations. We also engage independent valuation firms to perform valuations of any securities that trade on private secondary markets, but are not otherwise publicly traded, where there is a lack of appreciable trading or a wide disparity in recently reported trades. We consider the independent valuations provided by the valuation firms, among other factors, in making our fair value determinations. U.S. Federal and State Income Taxes We use the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements, using statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Certain tax attributes may be subject to limitations on timing and usage. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. We may elect to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a RIC effective for the 2013 tax year. In September 2014 we filed our 2013 tax return as a RIC and are seeking to be granted RIC status for our 2013 taxable year, however, we will not be eligible to elect to be treated as a RIC for the 2013 taxable year unless we are certified by the SEC as principally engaged in the furnishing of capital to other corporations which are principally engaged in the development or exploitation of inventions, technological improvements, new processes, or products not previously generally available for the 2013 taxable year.
Although we filed an application with the SEC for an SEC Certification for the 2013 taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will receive an SEC Certification. In the event that we do not receive such SEC Certification or we are otherwise unable to meet all of the qualifications to be treated as a RIC for 2013, we will be taxed as a C Corporation for the 2013 taxable year. To that end, for purposes of our financial statements, we have accrued taxes as though we were a C Corporation for the 2013 taxable year, in the event we are unable to qualify as a RIC. Should we not qualify as a RIC for 2013, we intend to elect to be treated as a RIC for our 2014 taxable year, if management determines that it is in our best interests to do so. For example, it may not be in our best interests in the event that we experience large operating losses or have large loss carryforwards. If we opt not to do so or are unable to qualify, we will continue to be taxed as a C corporation under the Code for
our 2014 taxable year. We evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. We recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position has met the more-likely-than-not threshold. We classify penalties and interest associated with income taxes, if any, as income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to,
ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. We did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of the period presented herein. We have identified our major tax jurisdictions as U.S. federal and California, and are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in the next 12 months. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards We do not believe that the adoption of any recently issued accounting standards will have a material impact on our current financial position and results of operations.

          The average net share price is the net share price realized after deducting all commissions and fees on the sale(s). We are presently in the final stages of negotiations with respect to several private company investments that we anticipate entering into within the next 30 to 60 days, subject to satisfaction of applicable closing conditions. In the case of secondary market transactions, such closing conditions may include approval of the issuer, waiver or failure to exercise rights of first refusal by the issuer and/or its stockholders and termination rights by us or the seller. Equity investments made through the secondary market may involve making deposits in escrow accounts until the applicable closing conditions are satisfied, at which
time the escrow accounts will close and such equity investments will be effectuated. From March 31, 2015 through May 11, 2015, we have not made any such escrow deposits. Line of Credit As of May 11, 2015, we had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility, and $18 million unused under the Credit Facility. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk We are subject to financial market risks, which could include; to the extent we utilize leverage with variable rate structures, changes in interest rates. As we invest primarily in equity rather than debt instruments, we would not expect fluctuations in interest rates to directly impact our return on our portfolio investments, although any significant change in market interest rates could potentially have an indirect effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the portfolio companies in which we invest. As of March 31, 2015, all of our debt investments bore a fixed rate of interest. As of March 31, 2015, all of our borrowings bear a fixed rate of interest with the exception of the Credit Facility which is indexed to the prime rate. We do not expect a significant impact on net investment income, due to changes in the prime rate, based on its historical stability. The table below, however, indicates the impact on our net investment income should the prime rate rise.
 50    TABLE OF CONTENTS At March 31, 2015 we borrowed $16.0 million under the Credit Facility, which allows us to borrow a maximum of $18.0 million. The amount we borrow under the Credit Facility will vary based on our business needs throughout the year. As such we are not able to forecast our utilization under the Credit Facility, and thus have assumed full utilization of the Credit Facility, in order to present the worst-case scenario that rising interest rates could have on our net income. The table below assumes we had fully drawn on the Credit Facility, during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, and shows the impact on quarterly net income of
changes in interest rates (assuming no other changes in our investment and borrowing structure):  Basis Point Change

          The Credit Facility, bears interest at a per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 4.75% and (ii) 8.0%. As such the effective minimum interest rate we will incur on borrowings under the Credit Facility is 8%. As the prime rate was at 3.25% as of March 31, 2015, only increases in the prime rate will affect our net income. Item 4. Controls and Procedures As of March 31, 2015, we, including our Chief Executive Officer 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) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer 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 Chief Executive Officer 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. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 51    TABLE OF CONTENTS PART II: OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us. From time to time we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to 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.
