best represents fair value as of December 31, 2013.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(J) | Subsequent to December 31, 2013, our investment in Pop Radio, LLC paid off and therefore was valued at the pay off amount as of December 31,

GLADSTONE CAPITAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

DECEMBER 31, 2013

(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA AND AS OTHERWISE INDICATED)

NOTE
1. ORGANIZATION

Gladstone Capital Corporation was incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland on May 30,
2001, and completed an initial public offering on August 23, 2001. The terms the Company, we, our, and us all refer to Gladstone Capital Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are an
externally-managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). In
addition, we have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (RIC) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). We were established for the purpose of investing
in debt and equity securities of established private businesses in the United States (U.S.). Our investment objectives are to (1) achieve and grow current income by investing in debt securities of established small and medium-sized
businesses in the U.S. that we believe will provide stable earnings and cash flow to pay expenses, make principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness and make distributions to stockholders that grow over time; and (2) provide
our stockholders with long-term capital appreciation in the value of our assets by investing in equity securities of established businesses that we believe can grow over time to permit us to sell our equity investments for capital gains.

Gladstone Business Loan, LLC (Business Loan), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, was established on February 3, 2003, for the sole
purpose of owning our portfolio of investments in connection with our revolving line of credit.

Gladstone Financial Corporation (previously
known as Gladstone SSBIC Corporation and herein referred to as Gladstone Financial), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, was established on November 21, 2006, for the purpose of holding a license to operate as a Specialized Small
Business Investment Company. Gladstone Financial acquired this license in February 2007. The license enables us, through this subsidiary, to make investments in accordance with the United States Small Business Administration guidelines for
specialized small business investment companies. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we held no investments through Gladstone Financial.

The financial statements of the foregoing two subsidiaries are consolidated with those of ours. We also have significant subsidiaries whose financial statements are not consolidated with ours. Refer to
Note 13Unconsolidated Significant Subsidiaries for additional information regarding our unconsolidated significant subsidiaries.

We are externally managed by our investment adviser, Gladstone Management Corporation (the Adviser), a Securities and Exchange Commission
(the SEC) registered investment adviser and an affiliate of ours, pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement (the Advisory Agreement). Administrative services are provided by our affiliate Gladstone
Administration, LLC (the Administrator), a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to an administration agreement (the Administration Agreement).

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Unaudited Interim Financial
Statements and Basis of Presentation

We prepare our interim financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, we have omitted certain disclosures accompanying
annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated. Under Article 6 of Regulation S-X, and the authoritative accounting guidance provided by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are not permitted to
consolidate any portfolio company investments, including those in which we have a controlling interest. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for
the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year. The interim financial statements and
notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, as filed with the SEC on November 20, 2013.

Our accompanying fiscal year-end Condensed Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities was derived from audited financial statements,
but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior years financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the three months ended December 31, 2013, with no effect on our financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Investment Valuation Policy

We carry our investments at fair value to the extent that market quotations are readily available and reliable and otherwise at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors (our
Board of Directors). In determining the fair value of our investments, the Adviser has established an investment valuation policy (the Policy). The Policy has been approved by our Board of Directors, and each quarter our
Board of Directors reviews the Policy to determine if changes thereto are advisable and also reviews whether the Adviser has applied the Policy consistently and votes whether to accept the recommended valuation of our investment portfolio. Such
determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and estimates.

The Adviser uses valuation techniques in accordance with GAAP to
value our portfolio. From time to time, the Adviser may accept an appraisal of a business in which we hold securities. These appraisals are expensive and occur infrequently, but provide a third-party valuation opinion that may differ in results,
techniques and scope used to value our investments. When the Adviser obtains these specific third-party appraisals, the Adviser uses estimates of value provided by such appraisals and its own assumptions, including estimated remaining life, current
market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date, to value our investments.

The Policy, summarized
below, applies to publicly traded securities, securities for which a limited market exists and securities for which no market exists.

Publicly traded securities: The Adviser determines the value of a publicly traded security based on the closing price for the security on the
exchange or securities market on which it is listed and primarily traded on the valuation date. To the extent that we own a restricted security that is not freely tradable, but for which a public market otherwise exists, the Adviser will use the
market value of that security adjusted for any decrease in value resulting from the restrictive feature. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we did not have any investments in publicly traded securities.

Securities for which a limited market exists: The Adviser values securities that are not traded on an established secondary securities market, but
for which a limited market for the security exists, such as certain participations in, or assignments of, syndicated loans, at the quoted bid price, which are non-binding. In valuing these assets, the Adviser assesses trading activity in an asset
class and evaluates variances in prices and other market insights to determine if any available quoted prices are reliable. In general, if the Adviser concludes that quotes based on active markets or trading activity may be relied upon, firm bid
prices are requested; however, if firm bid prices are unavailable, the Adviser bases the value of the security upon the indicative bid price (IBP) offered by the respective originating syndication agents trading desk, or secondary
desk, on or near the valuation date. To the extent that the Adviser uses the IBP as a basis for valuing the security, it may take further steps to consider additional information to validate that price in accordance with the Policy, including but
not limited to reviewing a range of indicative bids to the extent the Adviser has ready access to such qualified information.

In the event
these limited markets become illiquid such that market prices are no longer readily available, the Adviser will value our syndicated loans using alternative methods, such as estimated net present values of the future cash flows or discounted cash
flows (DCF). The use of a DCF methodology follows that prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures, which provides guidance on the use of a reporting entitys own assumptions about future cash flows and risk-adjusted discount rates when relevant observable inputs, such as quotes in active markets, are not available.
When relevant observable market data does not exist, an alternative outlined in ASC 820 is the valuation of investments based on DCF. For the purposes of using DCF to provide fair value estimates, the Adviser considers multiple inputs, such as a
risk-adjusted discount rate that incorporates adjustments that market participants would make, both for nonperformance and liquidity risks. As such, the Adviser develops a modified discount rate approach that incorporates risk premiums including,
among other things, increased probability of default, higher loss given default or increased liquidity risk. The DCF valuations applied to the syndicated loans provide an estimate of what the Adviser believes a market participant would pay to
purchase a syndicated loan in an active market, thereby establishing a fair value. The Adviser applies the DCF methodology in illiquid markets until quoted prices are available or are deemed reliable based on trading activity.

As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, the Adviser determined that the IBPs were reliable indicators of fair value for our syndicate
investments. However, because of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), we determined that these valuation inputs were classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC
820.

Securities for which no market exists: The valuation methodology for securities for which no market exists falls into four
categories: (A) portfolio investments comprised solely of debt securities; (B) portfolio investments in controlled companies comprised

of a bundle of securities, which can include debt and equity securities; (C) portfolio investments in non-controlled companies comprised of a bundle of investments, which can include debt
and equity securities; and (D) portfolio investments comprised of non-publicly traded, non-control equity securities of other funds.



|(A) | Portfolio investments comprised solely of debt securities: Debt securities that are not publicly traded on an established securities market, or for which a
market does not exist (Non-Public Debt Securities), and that are issued by portfolio companies in which we have no equity or equity-like securities, are fair valued utilizing opinions of value submitted to the Adviser by
Standard & Poors Securities Evaluations, Inc. (SPSE) and its own assumptions in the absence of observable market data, including synthetic credit ratings, estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate
spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. The Adviser may also submit paid-in-kind (PIK) interest to SPSE for its evaluation when it is determined that PIK interest is likely to be received.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(B) | Portfolio investments in controlled companies comprised of a bundle of securities, which can include debt and equity securities: The fair value of these
investments is determined based on the total enterprise value (TEV) of the portfolio company, or issuer, utilizing a liquidity waterfall approach under ASC 820 for our Non-Public Debt Securities and equity or equity-like securities
(e.g., preferred equity, common equity or other equity-like securities) that are purchased together as part of a package, where we control or could gain control through an option or warrant security; both the debt and equity securities of the
portfolio investment would exit in the mergers and acquisitions market as the principal market, generally through a sale or recapitalization of the portfolio company. We generally exit the debt and equity securities of an issuer at the same time.
Applying the liquidity waterfall approach to all of our investments in an issuer, the Adviser first calculates the TEV of the issuer by incorporating some or all of the following factors:
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the issuers ability to make payments;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | the earnings of the issuer;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | recent sales to third parties of similar securities;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the comparison to publicly traded securities; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DCF or other pertinent factors.
| | - |  | -------------------------------

In gathering the sales to third parties of similar securities, the Adviser generally references industry statistics and may use outside experts. TEV is only an estimate of value and may not be the value
received in an actual sale. Once the Adviser has estimated the TEV of the issuer, it will subtract the value of all the debt securities of the issuer, which are valued at the contractual principal balance. Fair values of these debt securities are
discounted for any shortfall of TEV over the total debt outstanding for the issuer. Once the values for all outstanding senior securities, which include all the debt securities, have been subtracted from the TEV of the issuer, the remaining amount,
if any, is used to determine the value of the issuers equity or equity-like securities. If, in the Advisers judgment, the liquidity waterfall approach does not accurately reflect the value of the debt component, the Adviser may recommend
that we use a valuation by SPSE, or, if that is unavailable, a DCF valuation technique.



|(C) | Portfolio investments in non-controlled companies comprised of a bundle of securities, which can include debt and equity securities: The Adviser values
Non-Public Debt Securities that are purchased together with equity or equity-like securities from the same portfolio company, or issuer, for which we do not control or cannot gain control as of the measurement date, using a hypothetical secondary
market as our principal market. In accordance with ASC 820 (as amended by the FASBs Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure
Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), (ASU 2011-04)), the Adviser has defined our unit of account at the investment level (either debt or equity) and as such
determines our fair value of these non-control investments assuming the sale of an individual security using the standalone premise of value. As such, the Adviser estimates the fair value of the debt component using estimates of value provided by
SPSE and its own assumptions in the absence of observable market data, including synthetic credit ratings, estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. For equity or
equity-like securities of investments for which we do not control or cannot gain control as of the measurement date, the Adviser estimates the fair value of the equity based on factors such as the overall value of the issuer, the relative fair value
of other units of account, including debt, or other relative value approaches. Consideration is also given to capital structure and other contractual obligations that may impact the fair value of the equity. Furthermore, the Adviser may utilize
comparable values of similar companies, recent investments and indices with similar structures and risk characteristics or DCF valuation techniques and, in the absence of other observable market data, its own assumptions.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(D) | Portfolio investments comprised of non-publicly traded, non-control equity securities of other funds: The Adviser generally values any uninvested capital of the
non-control fund at par value and values any invested capital at the net asset value (NAV) provided by the non-control fund.

Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ
significantly and materially from the values that would have been obtained had a ready market for the securities existed. Additionally, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the
gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith, as fair value depends upon circumstances of each individual case.
In general, fair value is the amount that the Adviser might reasonably expect us to receive upon the current sale of the security in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Refer to Note 3Investments for additional information regarding fair value measurements and our application of ASC 820.

Interest Income Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums, acquisition costs, and amendment fees and the accretion of original issue discounts (OID), is recorded on the accrual basis to the
extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Generally, when a loan becomes 90 days or more past due, or if our qualitative assessment indicates that the debtor is unable to service its debt or other obligations, we will place the loan on
non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until the borrower has demonstrated the ability and intent to pay contractual amounts due. However, we remain contractually entitled to this
interest. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to the cost basis, depending upon managements judgment. Generally, non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and
interest are paid and, in managements judgment, are likely to remain current, or, due to a restructuring, the interest income is deemed to be collectable. As of December 31, 2013, one portfolio company was on non-accrual with a debt cost
basis of approximately $29.2 million, or 9.2% of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio, and a debt fair value of approximately $7.3 million, or 2.8% of the fair value of all debt investments in our portfolio. As of
September 30, 2013, two portfolio companies were on non-accrual with an aggregate debt cost basis of approximately $39.5 million, or 12.6% of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio, and an aggregate debt fair value of
approximately $5.8 million, or 2.4% of the fair value of all debt investments in our portfolio.

We currently hold, and we expect to hold in
the future, some loans in our portfolio that contain OID or PIK provisions. We recognize OID for loans originally issued at discounts and recognize the income over the life of the obligation based on an effective yield calculation. PIK interest,
computed at the contractual rate specified in a loan agreement, is added to the principal balance of a loan and recorded as income over the life of the obligation. Thus, the actual collection of PIK income may be deferred until the time of debt
principal repayment. To maintain our ability to be taxed as a RIC, we may need to pay out both of our OID and PIK non-cash income amounts in the form of distributions, even though we have not yet collected the cash.

As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had 22 and 19 original OID loans, respectively, primarily from the syndicated loans in our
portfolio. We recorded OID income of $61 and $72 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The unamortized balance of OID investments as of December 31 and September 30, 2013 totaled $1.1 million and $1.0
million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, we had four investments which had a PIK interest component, and as of September 30, 2013, we had three investments which had a PIK interest component. We recorded PIK income of $92 and $53
for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We collected $0 PIK interest in cash during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Other Income Recognition

We generally record success fees upon receipt of cash. Success
fees are contractually due upon a change of control in a portfolio company. We received $0.2 million of success fees during the three months ended December 31, 2013, which resulted from our sale of substantially all of the assets in Lindmark
Acquisition, LLC and the ensuing pay down of our debt investments at par in September 2013. We received $1.1 million of success fees during the three months ended December 31, 2012, which resulted from our exit of Westlake Hardware, Inc. at par
during the period. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had an aggregate off-balance sheet success fee receivable of approximately $15.3 million and $14.8 million, respectively, on our accruing debt investments.

We generally record prepayment fees upon receipt of cash. Prepayment fees are contractually due at the time of an investments exit, based on the
prepayment fee schedule. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we did not receive any prepayment fees. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we received an aggregate of $0.5 million in prepayment fees, which resulted
from the early payoffs of four of our syndicated loans during the period.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments is accrued to the
extent that such amounts are expected to be collected and if we have the option to collect such amounts in cash. During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we did not record or collect any dividend income on our preferred equity
investments.

Success fees, prepayment fees and dividend income are all recorded in other income in our accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-08, Financial Services  Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements, which amends
the criteria that define an investment company, clarifies the measurement guidance and requires new disclosures for investment companies. Under ASU 2013-08, an entity already regulated under the 1940 Act is automatically an investment company under
the new GAAP definition, so we anticipate no impact on our financial position or results of operations from adopting this standard. We are currently assessing the additional disclosure requirements. ASU 2013-08 is effective for interim and annual
reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2013.

NOTE 3. INVESTMENTS

ASC 820 defines fair value by focusing on exit price in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value,
the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs. ASC 820 also establishes the following three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the
measurement date.



| |  |  | Level 1  inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active or inactive
markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 2 inputs are in those markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are
not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs
are those inputs that reflect assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability and can include the Advisers assumptions based upon the best available information.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, all of our investments were valued using Level 3 inputs. We transfer investments in and out of Level
1, 2 and 3 as of the beginning balance sheet date, based on changes in the use of observable and unobservable inputs utilized to perform the valuation for the period. During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no
transfers in or out of Level 1, 2 and 3.

The following table presents the investments carried at fair value as of December 31 and
September 30, 2013, by caption on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilitiesand by security type, all of which are valued using Level 3 inputs:

##### Table of Contents

In accordance with ASU 2011-04, the following table provides quantitative information about our Level 3 fair
value measurements of our investments as of December 31 and September 30, 2013. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the table below, according to our Policy, the Adviser may also use other valuation techniques and
methodologies when determining our fair value measurements. The table below is not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather provides information on the significant Level 3 inputs as they relate to our fair value measurements. The weighted average
calculations in the table below are based on the principal balances for all debt related calculations and on the cost basis for all equity-related calculations for the particular input.

|(A) | SPSE makes an independent assessment of the data the Adviser submits to them (which includes the financial and operational performance, as well as the
Advisers internally assessed risk ratings of the portfolio companies  see footnote (C) below) and its own independent data to form an opinion as to what they consider to be the market values for our securities. With regard to its
work, SPSE has stated that the data submitted to the Adviser is proprietary in nature.

|(B) | Adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is an unobservable input, which is generally based
on the most recently available trailing twelve month financial statements submitted to the Adviser from the portfolio companies. EBITDA multiples, generally indexed, represent the Advisers estimate of where market participants might price
these investments. For our bundled debt and equity investments, the EBITDA and EBITDA multiple inputs are used in the TEV fair value determination and the issuers debt, equity, and/or equity-like securities are valued in accordance with the
Advisers liquidity waterfall approach. In limited cases, the revenue from the most recently available trailing twelve month financial statements submitted to the Adviser from the portfolio companies and the related revenue multiples, generally
indexed, are used to provide a TEV fair value determination of our bundled debt and equity investments.

|(C) | As part of the Advisers valuation procedures, it risk rates all of our investments in debt securities. The Adviser uses the Nationally Recognized
Statistical Rating Organizations risk rating system for generally all of our syndicated loans and a proprietary risk rating system for all other debt securities. The Advisers risk rating system uses a scale of 0 to >10, with >10
being the lowest probability of default. The risk rating system covers both qualitative and quantitative aspects of the portfolio company business and the securities we hold.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(D) | The Adviser generally bases the value of our syndicated debt securities on the IBP offered by the respective originating syndication agents
trading desk, or secondary desk, on or near the valuation date. These bid prices are non-binding and are generally based on the underlying company performance and security characteristics, as well as other market conditions and credit risk factors.

|(E) | Includes private equity fund investments, where the Adviser generally values any uninvested capital of the non-control fund at par value and values any
invested capital at the NAV provided by the non-control fund.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(F) | December 31, 2013 includes four new proprietary debt investments for a combined $30.7 million, which were valued at cost and includes $7.1 million
in one proprietary investment, which subsequently paid off and, as such, was valued based on the payoff. September 30, 2013 includes one new proprietary investment for $7.0 million, which was valued at cost.

A portfolio companys EBITDA and EBITDA multiples are the significant unobservable inputs generally included in the Advisers internally
assessed TEV models used to value our proprietary debt and equity investments. Holding all other factors constant, increases (decreases) in the EBITDA and/or the EBITDA multiples inputs would result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement. Per
our Policy, the Adviser generally uses an indexed EBITDA multiple in these TEV models. EBITDA and EBITDA multiple inputs do not have to directionally correlate since EBITDA is a company performance metric and EBITDA multiples can be influenced by
market, industry, company size and other factors.

Changes in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements of Investments

The following tables provide the changes in fair value, broken out by security type, during the three month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
for all investments for which we determine fair value using unobservable (Level 3) factors. When a determination is made to classify a financial instrument within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy, such determination is based upon the significance
of the unobservable factors to the overall fair value measurement. However, Level 3 financial instruments typically include, in addition to the unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, observable inputs (that is, components that are actively quoted and can
be validated to external sources). In these cases, we categorize the fair value measurement in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. Accordingly, the gains
and losses in the tables below include changes in fair value, due in part to observable factors that are part of the valuation methodology.

Receivables from Portfolio Companies

Receivables from portfolio companies represent non-recurring costs that we incurred on behalf of portfolio companies and are included in other assets on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Assets and Liabilities. We generally maintain an allowance for uncollectible receivables from portfolio companies, which is determined based on historical experience and managements expectations of future losses. We charge
the accounts receivable to the established provision when collection efforts have been exhausted and the receivables are deemed uncollectible. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had gross receivables from portfolio companies of
$0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The allowance for uncollectible receivables was $0 and $0.1 million as of December 31 and September 30, 2013, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

Base Management Fee

The base management fee is computed and payable quarterly and is assessed at an annual rate of 2.0%, computed on the basis of the value of our average total assets at the end of the two most
recently-completed quarters, which are total assets, including investments made with proceeds of borrowings, less any uninvested cash or cash equivalents resulting from borrowings. In addition, the following adjustments to the base management fee
calculation:



| |  |  | Senior Syndicated Loan Fee Waiver
| | - |  | ---------------------------------

Our Board of Directors accepted an unconditional and irrevocable voluntary waiver from the Adviser to reduce the annual 2.0% base management fee on senior syndicated loan participations to 0.5%, to the
extent that proceeds resulting from borrowings were used to purchase such senior syndicated loan participations, for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.



| |  |  | Portfolio Company Fees
| | - |  | ----------------------

Pursuant to the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Adviser makes available significant managerial assistance to our portfolio companies. The Adviser may also provide other services to our portfolio
companies under other agreements and may receive fees for services other than managerial assistance. We credit 100.0% of these fees against the base management fee that we would otherwise be required to pay to the Adviser; however, pursuant to the
terms of the Advisory Agreement, a percentage of certain of such fees is retained by the Adviser.

Incentive Fee

The incentive fee consists of two parts: an income-based incentive fee and a capital gains-based incentive fee. The income-based incentive fee rewards the
Adviser if our quarterly net investment income (before giving effect to any incentive fee) exceeds 1.75% of our net assets (the hurdle rate). We will pay the Adviser an income-based incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net
investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:



| |  |  | no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate (7.0% annualized);
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 100.0% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that
exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized); and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 20.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized).
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our Board of Directors accepted an unconditional and irrevocable voluntary waiver from the Adviser to reduce the
income-based incentive fee to the extent net investment income did not 100.0% cover distributions to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2013. There was no waiver for the three months ended December 31, 2012.

The second part of the incentive fee is a capital gains-based incentive fee that will be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of
each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and equals 20.0% of our realized capital gains as of the end of the fiscal year. In determining the capital gains-based incentive fee payable to the
Adviser, we calculate the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains and cumulative aggregate realized capital losses since our inception, and the entire portfolios aggregate net unrealized capital depreciation, if any, as of the date of the
calculation. For this purpose, cumulative aggregate realized capital gains, if any, equals the sum of the differences between the net sales price of each investment, when sold, and the original cost of such investment since our inception. Cumulative
aggregate realized capital losses equals the sum of the amounts by which the net sales price of each investment, when sold, is less than the original cost of such investment since our inception. The entire portfolios aggregate net unrealized
capital depreciation, if any, equals the sum of the difference, between the valuation of each investment as of the applicable calculation date and the original cost of such investment. At the end of the applicable fiscal year, the amount of capital
gains that serves as the basis for our calculation of the capital gains-based incentive fee equals the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains less cumulative aggregate realized capital losses, less the entire portfolios aggregate net
unrealized capital depreciation, if any. If this number is positive at the end of such fiscal year, then the capital gains-based incentive fee for such year equals 20.0% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains-based incentive
fees paid in respect of our portfolio in all prior years. No capital gains-based incentive fee has been recorded since our inception through December 31, 2013, as cumulative net unrealized capital depreciation has exceeded cumulative realized
capital gains net of cumulative realized capital losses.

Additionally, in accordance with GAAP, a capital gains-based incentive fee accrual
is calculated using the aggregate cumulative realized capital gains and losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation included in the calculation of the capital gains-based incentive fee plus the aggregate cumulative unrealized
capital appreciation. If such amount is positive at the end of a

period, then GAAP requires us to record a capital gains-based incentive fee equal to 20.0% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of actual capital gains-based incentive fees paid in all prior
years. If such amount is negative, then there is no accrual for such period. GAAP requires that the capital gains-based incentive fee accrual consider the cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation in the calculation, as a capital
gains-based incentive fee would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future. No GAAP accrual for a capital gains-based incentive
fee has been recorded since our inception through December 31, 2013.

Administration Agreement

The Administration Agreement provides that we pay separately for administrative services equal to our allocable portion of the Administrators
overhead expenses in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including, but not limited to, rent and the salaries and benefits expenses of our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, internal counsel and
secretary and their respective staffs. Our allocable portion of administrative expenses is generally derived by multiplying the Administrators total allocable expenses by the percentage of our total assets at the beginning of the quarter in
comparison to the total assets at the beginning of the quarter of all funds managed by the Adviser and administered by the Administrator under similar agreements. On July 9, 2013, our Board of Directors approved the annual renewal of the
Administration Agreement through August 31, 2014.

Other operating expenses due to the Adviser as of December 31 and September 30, 2013, totaled $15 and $18,
respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2013, other co-investment expenses payable to Gladstone Investment (for reimbursement purposes) totaled $0.2 million. These expenses were paid in full during the three months ended
December 31, 2013 and have been included in other liabilities on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilitiesas of September 30, 2013.There were no amounts due to Gladstone Investment as of
December 31, 2013.

Notes to Former Employees

During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had outstanding notes receivables to certain former employees, who are now employees of the Adviser. The notes were for the exercise of
options granted under the Amended and Restated 2001 Equity Incentive Plan, which has since been terminated. The notes require the quarterly payment of interest at the market rate in effect at the date of issuance, have terms not exceeding ten years
and have been recorded as a reduction of net assets. The notes are evidenced by full recourse notes that are due upon maturity or 60 days following termination of employment with the Adviser and the shares of common stock purchased with the proceeds
of the notes are posted as collateral. We received $0 of principal repayments during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. We recognized interest income from all employee notes of $4 and $53 for the three months ended
December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The following table is a summary of the remaining note issued to a current employee of the
Adviser for the exercise of stock options as of December 31 and September 30, 2013:

notes executed by Ms. Gladstone on July 13, 2006, in the principal amount of $0.3 million (the Note). Ms. Gladstone originally executed the Notes to facilitate her payment of the exercise price of certain stock options
(the Options) to acquire shares of our common stock. Concurrently with the execution of the Note, we, together with Ms. Gladstone entered into a stock pledge agreements (the Pledge Agreement), pursuant to which
Ms. Gladstone granted to us a first priority security interest in the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the respective Pledge

| | Agreements), which included 18,334 shares of our common stock that Ms. Gladstone acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Options (collectively, the Pledged Shares). The
Redemption Agreements provide that, pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof, we will automatically accept and retire the Pledged Shares in partial or full satisfaction, as applicable, of Ms. Gladstones obligations to us under
the Notes at such time, if ever, that the trading price of our common stock reaches $15 per share. In entering into the Redemption Agreement, we reserved all of our existing rights under the Note and the Pledge Agreement, including, but not
limited to, the ability to foreclose on the Pledged Collateral at any time. During the year ended September 30, 2013, Ms. Gladstone paid down $0.1 million of the principal of her Note, leaving a principal balance of $0.2 million
outstanding as of December 31 and September 30, 2013. In connection with Ms. Gladstones pay downs of principal, we have not released any of our first priority security interests on her Pledged Shares.

In accordance with ASC 505, Equity, receivables from employees for the issuance of capital stock to employees prior to the receipt of
cash payment should be reflected in the balance sheet as a reduction to stockholders equity. Therefore, our recourse note totaling, in aggregate, $0.2 million as of December 31, 2013 was recorded as a note receivable from employee and is
included in the net assets section of our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of December 31, 2013, we determined that this note was still recourse.

NOTE 5. BORROWINGS

Revolving Credit Facility

On April 26, 2013, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Business Loan, entered into Amendment No. 6 to the fourth amended and restated credit agreement (our Credit Facility) to
extend the revolver period end date for one year to January 19, 2016. Our $137.0 million revolving Credit Facility was arranged by Key Equipment Finance Inc. (Key Equipment) as administrative agent. Keybank National Association
(Keybank), Branch Banking and Trust Company and ING Capital LLC also joined our Credit Facility as committed lenders. Subject to certain terms and conditions, our Credit Facility may be expanded from $137.0 million to a maximum of $237.0
million through the addition of other committed lenders to the facility. The interest rates on advances under our Credit Facility generally bear interest at a 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 3.75% per annum,
with a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on undrawn amounts when our facility is drawn more than 50% and 1.0% per annum on undrawn amounts when our facility is drawn less than 50%. If our Credit Facility is not renewed or extended by
January 19, 2016, all principal and interest will be due and payable on or before November 30, 2016. Prior to the April 26, 2013 amendment, on January 29, 2013, we, through Business Loan, amended our Credit Facility to remove the
LIBOR minimum of 1.5% on advances. We incurred fees of $0.7 million in April 2013 and $0.6 million in January 2013 in connection with these amendments, which are being amortized through our Credit Facilitys revolver period end date of
January 19, 2016. All other terms of our Credit Facility remained generally unchanged at the time of these amendments.

The following
tables summarize noteworthy information related to our Credit Facility (at cost) as of December 31 and September 30, 2013 and during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012:

Interest is payable monthly during the term of our Credit Facility. Available borrowings are subject to various constraints imposed under our Credit Facility, based on the aggregate loan balance pledged
by Business Loan, which varies as loans are added and repaid, regardless of whether such repayments are prepayments or made as contractually required.

Our Credit Facility also requires that any interest or principal payments on pledged loans be remitted directly by the borrower into a lockbox account with Key Equipment as custodian. Key Equipment, who
also serves as the trustee of the account, generally remits the collected funds to us once a month.

Our Credit Facility contains covenants
that require Business Loan to maintain its status as a separate legal entity, prohibit certain significant corporate transactions (such as mergers, consolidations, liquidations or dissolutions), and restrict material changes to our credit and
collection policies without the lenders consent. Our Credit Facility also generally limits payments on distributions to our stockholders to our aggregate net investment income for each of the twelve month periods ending September 30,
2014, 2015 and 2016. Business Loan is also subject to certain limitations on the type of loan investments it can apply as collateral towards the borrowing base in order to receive additional borrowing availability under our Credit Facility,
including restrictions on geographic

concentrations, sector concentrations, loan size, payment frequency and status, average life and lien property. Our Credit Facility further requires Business Loan to comply with other financial
and operational covenants, which obligate Business Loan to, among other things, maintain certain financial ratios, including asset and interest coverage and a minimum number of 20 obligors required in the borrowing base. Additionally, we are subject
to a performance guaranty that requires us to maintain (i) a minimum net worth (defined in our Credit Facility to include our mandatorily redeemable preferred stock) of $190.0 million plus 50.0% of all equity and subordinated debt raised after
January 19, 2012, which equates to $190.0 million as of December 31, 2013, (ii) asset coverage with respect to senior securities representing indebtedness of at least 200.0%, in accordance with Section 18 of the 1940 Act and
(iii) our status as a BDC under the 1940 Act and as a RIC under the Code. As of December 31, 2013, and as defined in the performance guaranty of our Credit Facility, we had a net worth of $250.6 million, asset coverage of 345.9% and an
active status as a BDC and RIC. In addition, we had 33 obligors in the borrowing base of our Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all of our Credit Facility covenants.

Fair Value

We elected to apply the fair
value option of ASC 825, Financial Instruments, specifically for our Credit Facility, which was consistent with our application of ASC 820 to our investments. Generally, we estimate the fair value of our Credit Facility using
estimates of value provided by an independent third party and our own assumptions in the absence of observable market data, including estimated remaining life, counterparty credit risk, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar
securities as of the measurement date. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, our Credit Facility was valued using Level 3 inputs and any changes in its fair value is recorded in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of other on
our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following tables present our Credit Facility carried at fair
value as of December 31 and September 30, 2013, on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities for Level 3 of the hierarchy established by ASC 820 and the changes in fair value of our Credit Facility

NOTE 6.
INTEREST RATE CAP AGREEMENTS

On July 15, 2013, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Business Loan, entered into an interest rate
cap agreement with Keybank, effective July 9, 2013 and expiring January 19, 2016, for a notional amount of $35.0 million that effectively limits the interest rate on a portion of our borrowings under our revolving line of credit pursuant
to the terms of our Credit Facility. The one month LIBOR cap is set at 5.0%. We incurred a premium fee of $62 in conjunction with this agreement, which was recorded in other assets on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets
and Liabilities. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, the fair value of our interest rate cap agreement was $2 and $4, respectively. We record changes in the fair value of our interest rate cap agreement at quarter end based on
the current market valuation at quarter end in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of other on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Generally, we will estimate the fair value of our interest rate cap agreement using estimates of value provided by the counterparty and our own assumptions in the absence of observable market data,
including estimated remaining life, counterparty credit risk, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, our interest rate cap agreement was
valued using Level 3 inputs.

NOTE 7. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

In November 2011, we completed a public offering of 1.5 million shares of 7.125% Series 2016 Term Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share
(Term Preferred Stock), at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. Gross proceeds totaled $38.5 million and net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us, were $36.4 million, a portion of
which was used to repay a portion of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. We incurred $2.1 million in total offering costs related to these transactions, which have been recorded as deferred financing fees on our accompanying
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are being amortized over the redemption period ending December 31, 2016.

The shares of our Term Preferred Stock have a redemption date of December 31, 2016, and are currently traded under the ticker symbol of GLADP on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Our Term
Preferred Stock is not convertible into our common stock or any other security and provides for a fixed dividend equal to 7.125% per year, payable monthly (which equates in total to approximately $2.7 million per year). We are required to
redeem all of the outstanding Term Preferred Stock on December 31, 2016 for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share plus an amount equal to accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, as of the date of redemption. In addition, the
two other potential redemption triggers are as follows: (1) if we fail to maintain an asset coverage ratio of at least 200.0%, we are required to redeem a portion of the outstanding Term Preferred Stock or otherwise cure the ratio redemption
trigger and (2) at our sole option, at any time on or after December 31, 2012, we may redeem part or all of the Term Preferred Stock. No redemptions of our outstanding Term Preferred Stock have been made as of December 31, 2013.

Our Board of Directors declared and paid the following monthly distributions to preferred stockholders for the three months ended
December 31, 2013 and 2012:

In accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, mandatorily redeemable financial
instruments should be classified as liabilities in the balance sheet and we have recorded this liability at cost as of December 31 and September 30, 2013. Therefore, the related distribution payments to preferred stockholders are treated
as dividend expense on our statement of operations as of the ex-dividend date. For disclosure purposes, the fair value of our Term Preferred Stock based on the last quoted closing price as of December 31 and September 30, 2013, was
approximately $39.4 million and $40.0 million, respectively, and we consider our Term Preferred Stock to be a Level 1 liability within the ASC 820 hierarchy.

Aggregate preferred stockholder distributions declared and paid for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were each approximately $0.7 million. For federal income tax purposes,
distributions paid by us to preferred stockholders generally constitute ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits.

NOTE 8. COMMON STOCK

We filed a universal shelf registration statement (our
Registration Statement) on Form N-2 (File No. 333-185191) with the SEC on November 29, 2012, and subsequently filed a Pre-effective Amendment No. 1 on January 17, 2013 that the SEC declared effective on
January 18, 2013. On December 23, 2013, we filed Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, which the SEC has not declared effective as of the date of this filing. Once declared effective, the Registration Statement will permit us to issue,
through one or more transactions, up to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, debt securities and warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, including through a
combined offering of such securities. We have not issued any securities to date under the Registration Statement.

NOTE 10. DISTRIBUTIONS TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS

To qualify to be taxed as a RIC, we are required to distribute to our stockholders 90.0% of our investment company taxable income. The amount to be paid out as distributions to our stockholders is
determined by our Board of Directors quarterly and is based on the fiscal year earnings estimated by management. Based on that estimate, three monthly distributions are declared each quarter.

The federal income tax characterization of all distributions will be reported to our stockholders on the Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 at the end of each calendar year. For each of the nine months
ended September 30, 2013, approximately 92.0% of our common distributions were deemed to be paid from ordinary income, with the remainder of approximately 8.0% deemed to be from a return of capital. For each of October, November and December
2013, approximately 100.0% of our common distributions were deemed to be paid from ordinary income. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2012, approximately 92.0% of our common distributions were deemed to be paid from ordinary income with
the remainder of approximately 8.0% deemed to be from a return of capital. The return of capital in both years resulted primarily resulted from GAAP realized losses being recognized as ordinary losses for federal income tax purposes.

Our Board of Directors declared and paid the following monthly distributions to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and
2012:

Aggregate distributions to our common stockholders declared and paid for the three months ended December 31, 2013
and 2012 were each approximately $4.4 million, which were declared based on estimates of net investment income for the respective fiscal years. The characterization of the common stockholder distributions declared and paid for the fiscal year ending
September 30, 2014 will be determined at fiscal year end and cannot be determined at this time. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, common stockholder distributions declared and paid exceeded our accumulated earnings and profits
(after taking into account Term Preferred Stock dividends), which resulted in a partial return of capital equal to approximately $1.3 million. The return of capital primarily resulted from GAAP realized losses being recognized as ordinary losses for
federal income tax purposes.

NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

We are party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal
course of our business, including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. We are required to establish reserves for litigation matters where those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and
estimable. When loss contingencies are not both probable and estimable, we do not

##### Table of Contents

establish reserves. Based on current knowledge, we do not believe that loss contingencies, if any, arising from pending investigations, litigation or regulatory matters will have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operation or cash flows. Additionally, based on current knowledge, we do not believe such loss contingencies are probable and estimable and therefore, as of December 31, 2013, we have not
established reserves for such loss contingencies.

Escrow Holdbacks

From time to time, we will enter into arrangements as it relates to exits of certain investments whereby specific amounts of the proceeds are held in escrow to be used to satisfy potential
obligations as stipulated in the sales agreements. We record escrow amounts in restricted cash and cash equivalents on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. We establish a contingent liability against
the escrow amounts if we determine that it is probable and estimable that a portion of the escrow amounts will not be ultimately received at the end of the escrow period. The aggregate contingent liabilities recorded against the escrow amounts was
$0.4 million and $0 as of December 31 and September 30, 2013, respectively, and are recorded in other liabilities on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Financial Commitments and Obligations

We have lines of credit with certain of our portfolio companies that have not been fully drawn. Since these commitments have expiration dates and we
expect many will never be fully drawn, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

For our
investments in certain private equity funds, we may have uncalled capital commitments, depending on the agreed upon terms of our committed ownership interest. These capital commitments usually have a specific date in the future set as a closing
date, at which time the commitment is either funded or terminates. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had uncalled capital commitments related to our partnership interest in Leeds Novamark Capital I, L.P.

The following table summarizes the dollar balances of our unused line of credit and uncalled capital commitments as of December 31 and
September 30, 2013:

including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.

The following analysis of our
financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our accompanyingCondensed Consolidated Financial Statementsand the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, filed with the SEC on November 20, 2013. Historical financial condition and results of operations and percentage relationships among any amounts in the financial
statements are not necessarily indicative of financial condition or results of operations for any future periods.

OVERVIEW

General

We
were incorporated under the Maryland General Corporation Law on May 30, 2001. We were established for the purpose of investing in debt and equity securities of established private businesses in the United States (U.S.). Our
investment objectives are to: (1) achieve and grow current income by investing in debt securities of established businesses that we believe will provide stable earnings and cash flow to pay expenses, make principal and interest payments on our
outstanding indebtedness and make distributions to stockholders that grow over time; and (2) provide our stockholders with long-term capital appreciation in the value of our assets by investing in equity securities of established businesses
that we believe can grow over time to permit us to sell our equity investments for capital gains. To achieve our objectives, our investment strategy is to invest in several categories of debt and equity securities, with each investment generally
ranging from $5 million to $30 million, although investment size may vary, depending upon our total assets or available capital at the time of investment. We aim to maintain a portfolio consisting of approximately 95.0% debt investment and 5.0%
equity investment, at cost.

We focus on investing in small and medium-sized private businesses in the U.S. that meet certain criteria,
including, but not limited to, the following: the potential for growth in cash flow, adequate assets for loan collateral, experienced management teams with a significant ownership interest in the borrower, profitable operations based on the
borrowers cash flow, reasonable capitalization of the borrower (usually by leveraged buyout funds or venture capital funds) and, to a lesser extent, the potential to realize appreciation and gain liquidity in our equity position, if any. We
lend to borrowers that need funds to finance growth, restructure their balance sheets or effect a change of control. We invest by ourselves or jointly with other funds and/or management of the portfolio company, depending on the opportunity. If we
are participating in an investment with one or more co-investors, our investment is likely to be smaller than if we were investing alone.

##### Table of Contents

We operate as an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company, and have
elected to be treated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). In addition, for federal income tax purposes we have elected to be treated as a regulated
investment company (RIC) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). As a BDC and RIC, we are subject to certain constraints, including limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and the Code.

We are externally managed by our investment adviser, Gladstone Management Corporation (the Adviser), a SEC registered investment adviser and
an affiliate of ours, pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement (the Advisory Agreement). The Adviser manages our investment activities. We have also entered into an administration agreement (the Administration
Agreement) with Gladstone Administration, LLC (the Administrator), an affiliate of ours and the Adviser, whereby we pay separately for administrative services.

Our shares of common stock and mandatorily redeemable preferred stock are traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the trading symbols GLAD and GLADP, respectively.

Business Environment

The
strength of the global economy and the U.S. economy in particular, continues to be uncertain. Recently, we experienced the first U.S. government shutdown in 17 years along with a stalemate in the U.S. Congress over whether to raise the debt ceiling.
Prior to this recent U.S. fiscal crisis, economic conditions generally appeared to be improving. The impacts from the 2008 recession in general, and the resulting disruptions in the capital markets in particular, have had lingering effects on our
liquidity options and have increased our cost of debt and equity capital. Many of our portfolio companies, as well as those small and medium-sized companies that we evaluate for prospective investment, are feeling the impacts of the uncertain
economy. These political and economic conditions could also disproportionately impact some of the industries in which we have invested, causing us to be more vulnerable to losses in our portfolio, which could cause the number of our non-performing
assets to increase and the fair market value of our portfolio to decrease.

In addition, there has been increased competitive pressure in the
BDC and investment company marketplace for senior and senior subordinated debt, resulting in lower yields for increasingly riskier investments. We do not know if market conditions will continue to improve or if adverse conditions will again
intensify and we do not know the full extent to which the inability of the U.S. government to address its fiscal condition in the near and long term will affect us. If market instability persists or intensifies, we may experience difficulty in
raising capital. In summary, we believe we are in a protracted economic recovery; however, we do not know the full extent to which the impact of the lingering recessionary economic conditions will affect us or our portfolio companies.

Portfolio Activity

While conditions
remain somewhat challenging in the marketplace, we are seeing a number of new investment opportunities that are consistent with our investment objectives and strategies. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we invested an aggregate
of $44.1 million in eight new proprietary and syndicate investments, resulting in a net expansion in our overall portfolio of five portfolio companies, due to two portfolio companies paying off early at par for an aggregate of $21.5 million and the
sale of one of our portfolio companies.

In addition, in July 2012, the SEC granted us an exemptive order that expands our ability to
co-invest with certain of our affiliates by permitting us, under certain circumstances, to co-invest with Gladstone Investment Corporation (Gladstone Investment) and any future BDC or closed-end management investment company that is
advised by the Adviser (or sub-advised by the Adviser if it controls the fund) or any combination of the foregoing subject to the conditions in the SECs order. We believe this ability to co-invest has enhanced and will continue to enhance our
ability to further our investment objectives and strategies. We co-invested with Gladstone Investment in three new proprietary investments during the three months ended December 31, 2013, as discussed under Investment
Highlights.

Regulatory Compliance

Challenges in the current market are intensified for us by certain regulatory limitations under the Code and the 1940 Act, as well as contractual restrictions under the agreement governing our $137.0
million revolving line of credit (our Credit Facility, described more fully under Liquidity and Capital Resources  Revolving Credit Facility) that further constrain our ability to access the capital markets. To
qualify to be taxed as a RIC, we must distribute to our stockholders at least 90.0% of our investment company taxable income, which is generally our net ordinary income plus the excess of our net short-term capital gains over net
long-term capital losses. Because we are required to satisfy the RIC annual stockholder distribution requirement, and because the illiquidity of many of our investments makes it difficult for us to finance new investments through the sale of current
investments, our ability to make new investments is highly dependent upon external financing. Our external financing sources include the issuance of equity securities,

debt securities or other leverage, such as borrowings under our Credit Facility. Our ability to seek external debt financing, to the extent that it is available under current market conditions,
is further subject to the asset coverage limitations of the 1940 Act that require us to have an asset coverage ratio (as defined in Section 18(h) of the 1940 Act) of at least 200.0% on our senior securities representing indebtedness and our
senior securities that are stock.

We believe that market conditions have affected the trading price of our common stock and our ability to
finance new investments through the issuance of equity. On January 31, 2014, the closing market price of our common stock was $9.87, a 2.3% discount to our December 31, 2013, net asset value (NAV) per common share of $10.10.
When our common stock trades below NAV per share, as it has consistently over the last four years, the 1940 Act restricts our ability to obtain additional capital by issuing common stock. Generally, the 1940 Act provides that we may not issue and
sell our common stock at a price below our then current NAV per share, other than to our then existing common stockholders pursuant to a rights offering, without first obtaining approval from our stockholders and our independent directors. At our
Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on February 14, 2013, our stockholders approved a proposal authorizing us to sell shares of our common stock at a price below our then current NAV per share subject to certain limitations (including, but not
limited to, that the number of shares issued and sold pursuant to such authority does not exceed 25.0% of our then outstanding common stock immediately prior to each such sale) for a period of one year from the date of approval, provided that our
Board of Directors makes certain determinations prior to any such sale. At the upcoming Annual Meeting of Stockholders scheduled for February 13, 2014, our stockholders will again be asked to vote in favor of renewing this proposal for another
year.

The current uncertain and volatile economic conditions may also continue to cause the value of the collateral securing some of our
loans to fluctuate, as well as the value of our equity investments, which has impacted and may continue to impact our ability to borrow under our Credit Facility. Additionally, our Credit Facility contains covenants regarding the maintenance of
certain minimum loan concentrations and net worth covenants, which are affected by the decrease in value of our portfolio. Failure to meet these requirements would result in a default which, if we are unable to obtain a waiver from our lenders,
would cause an acceleration of our repayment obligations under our Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all of our Credit Facilitys covenants.

We expect that, given these regulatory and contractual constraints in combination with current market conditions, debt and equity capital may be costly for us to access in the near term. However, we
believe that our recent Credit Facility amendments which decreased the interest rate on advances by removing the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) floor of 1.5% and extended the maturity one year until 2016 along with our ability to
co-invest with Gladstone Investment and certain other affiliated investment funds, should increase our ability to make investments in businesses that we believe will help us achieve attractive long-term returns for our stockholders. Starting off the
2014 fiscal year, we have continued to focus on building our pipeline with deals that we believe are generally recession resistant and making investments that meet our objectives and strategies and provide appropriate returns, given the risks.

Investment Highlights

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we invested an aggregate of $44.1 million in eight new portfolio companies and an aggregate of $0.8
million to existing portfolio companies. In addition, during the three months ended December 31, 2013, we sold our investment in one portfolio company and we received scheduled and unscheduled contractual principal repayments of approximately
$24.7 million from existing portfolio companies, including two early payoffs. Since our initial public offering in August 2001, we have made 355 different loans to, or investments in, 180 companies for a total of approximately $1.3 billion, before
giving effect to principal repayments on investments and divestitures.

Investment Income

Total interest income remained relatively consistent for the three
months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the prior year period, increasing slightly by 0.1%. This was due to an overall decrease in early payoffs during the December 31, 2013 quarter end, which was offset by the majority of new
interest earning investments occurring at the end of the quarter. Over the last several quarters we have seen a slight increase in the weighted average yield on our interest-bearing investment portfolio. The level of interest income from investments
is directly related to the principal balance of the interest-bearing investment portfolio outstanding during the period multiplied by the weighted average yield. The weighted average principal balance of our interest-bearing investment portfolio
during the three months ended December 31, 2013, was $299.6 million, compared to $278.3 million for the prior year period, an increase of 7.7%. The annualized weighted average yield on our interest-bearing investment portfolio for the three
months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was 11.6%. The weighted average yield varies from period to period based on the current stated interest rate on interest-bearing investments.

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, one of our portfolio companies was on non-accrual with a debt cost of approximately $29.2 million, or 9.2%, of the cost basis of all debt investments
in our portfolio. During the prior year period, four portfolio companies were on non-accrual, for an aggregate of $56.6 million at cost, or 16.4%, of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio. During the three months ended
December 31, 2013, we sold our investment in one portfolio company that had been on non-accrual status. See Overview  Investment Highlights for more information. There were no new non-accruals added and no non-accruals
placed on accrual during the three months ended December 31, 2013.

Other income decreased by 87.8% for the three months ended
December 31, 2013, as compared to the prior year period. Other income for the three months ended December 31, 2013, consisted of $0.2 million in success fees received related to the sale of substantially all of the assets of Lindmark
Acquisition, LLC (Lindmark) and the ensuing pay down of our debt investments at par in September 2013. Other income for the three months ended December 31, 2012, consisted primarily of $1.1 million in success fees received from the
early payoff of Westlake Hardware, Inc. (Westlake) at par during the period. In addition, we received prepayment fees in the aggregate of $0.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2012, related to the early payoffs of
four syndicate investments during the period. No prepayment fees were received during the three months ended December 31, 2013.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses, net of credits from the Adviser, decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2013, by 19.9%, as compared to the prior year period. This decrease was primarily due to
decreases in interest expense on our Credit Facility and in incentive fees.

Interest expense decreased by 28.2% for the three months ended
December 31, 2013, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to decreased borrowings throughout the quarter under our Credit Facility. The weighted average balance outstanding on our Credit Facility during the three months ended
December 31, 2013, was approximately $33.1 million, as compared to $46.0 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 27.9%. Additionally, the decrease in interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the
prior year period, was due to the January 2013 amendment of our Credit Facility to remove the LIBOR minimum of 1.5% on advances.

The decrease
of $0.8 million in net incentive fees earned by the Adviser during the three months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the prior year period, was due to primarily to the incentive fee waiver in the current period. An incentive fee was
earned by the Adviser during the three months ended December 31, 2013; however, the incentive fee was partially waived by the Adviser to ensure distributions to stockholders were covered entirely by net investment income. There was no incentive
fee waiver in the prior year period.

Realized Losses and Unrealized
Appreciation on Investments

Net Realized Losses

For the three months ended December 31, 2013, we recorded a net realized loss on investments of $10.8 million related to the sale of LocalTel.

For the three months ended December 31, 2012, we recorded a net realized loss on investments of $3.0 million, which primarily related to the sale of
Viapack, Inc. (Viapack) for a realized loss of $2.4 million and the write off of Access Television Network, Inc. (Access TV) of $0.9 million. These realized losses were partially offset by the aggregate realized gains of $0.2
million from unamortized discounts from several early payoffs of syndicate investments during the quarter as well as escrowed proceeds received in connection with our exit in fiscal year 2012 of our investment in Newhall Holdings Inc.

Net Unrealized Appreciation

Net
unrealized appreciation of investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains and losses are
actually realized. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we recorded net unrealized appreciation of investments in the aggregate amount of $16.9 million, which included the reversal of $10.2 million in cumulative unrealized
depreciation related to the sale of LocalTel. Excluding reversals, we had $6.7 million in net unrealized appreciation for the three months ended December 31, 2013. Over our entire portfolio, the net unrealized appreciation (excluding reversals)
was comprised of approximately $3.2 million on our debt investments and approximately $3.5 million on our equity investments for the three months ended December 31, 2013.

The largest drivers of our net unrealized appreciation (excluding reversals) for the three months ended December 31,
2013, was due to several portfolio companies increased financial and operational performance and, to a lesser extent, the increase in certain comparable multiples used for equity valuations during the period, most notably that of RBC
Acquisition Corp.

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we recorded net unrealized appreciation of investments in the
aggregate amount of $4.9 million, which included the reversal of $8.0 million in aggregate cumulative unrealized depreciation primarily related to the sale of Viapack and the write off of Access TV. Excluding reversals, we had $3.2 million in net
unrealized depreciation for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Over our entire portfolio, the net unrealized depreciation (excluding reversals) consisted of approximately $2.1 million on our debt investments and approximately $1.1
million on our equity investments for the three months ended December 31, 2012.

The net realized (losses) gains and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) across our investments for the three months ended December 31, 2012, were as follows:

The largest drivers of our net unrealized appreciation for the three months ended December 31, 2012, were the
reversals of cumulative unrealized depreciation on Viapack of $6.7 million, Access TV of $0.9 million and Westlake of $0.6 million, all related to sales, write offs or payoffs during the period. This net unrealized appreciation was partially offset
by unrealized depreciation on Defiance Integrated Technologies, Inc. of $1.2 million, Legend Communications of Wyoming, LLC of $0.7 million and GFRC Holdings, LLC of $0.6 million, which were both due primarily to a decline in these portfolio
companies financial and operational performance during the period.

As of December 31, 2013, the fair value of our investment
portfolio was less than its cost basis by approximately $58.5 million, and our entire investment portfolio was valued at 82.9% of cost, as compared to cumulative net unrealized depreciation of $75.4 million and a valuation of our entire portfolio at
77.3% of cost as of September 30, 2013. This decrease quarter over quarter represents net unrealized appreciation of our investments of $16.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013. Of our current investment

portfolio, 14 portfolio companies originated before December 31, 2007, representing 41.6% of the entire cost basis of our portfolio, were valued at 69.5% of cost and include our one
investment on non-accrual status. Our 38 portfolio companies originating after December 31, 2007, representing 58.4% of the entire cost basis of our portfolio, were valued at 92.4% of cost, none of which are on non-accrual status.

We believe that our aggregate investment portfolio was valued at a depreciated value as of December 31, 2013, primarily due to the lingering effects
of the recession that began in 2008 and its affect on the performance of certain of our portfolio companies and also because we were invested in certain industries that have been disproportionately impacted by the recession. The cumulative net
unrealized depreciation of our investments does not have an impact on our current ability to pay distributions to stockholders; however, it may be an indication of future realized losses, which could ultimately reduce our income available for
distribution to stockholders.

Net Unrealized (Appreciation) Depreciation of Other

Net unrealized (appreciation) depreciation of other includes the net change in the fair value of our Credit Facility and our interest rate swap during the
reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains and losses are realized. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we recorded net unrealized appreciation of borrowings
of $6 compared to net unrealized depreciation of borrowings of $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Our Credit Facility was fair valued at $47.9 million and $47.1 million as of December 31 and September 30, 2013,
respectively. Our interest rate swap was fair valued at $2 and $4 as of December 31 and September 
30, 2013, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Activities

Our cash
flows from operating activities is primarily generated from the interest payments on debt securities that we receive from our portfolio companies, as well as cash proceeds received through repayments or sales of our investments. We utilize this
cash primarily to fund new investments, make interest payments on our Credit Facility, make distributions to our stockholders, pay management fees to the Adviser, and for other operating expenses. Net cash used in operating activities during
the three months ended December 31, 2013, was $1.2 million, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $8.9 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in principal
repayments during the three months ended December 31, 2013.

As of December 31, 2013, we had loans to, syndicated participations in
and/or equity investments in 52 private companies with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $341.7 million. As of December 31, 2012, we had loans to, syndicated participations in and/or equity investments in 48 private companies with an
aggregate cost basis of approximately $356.7 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $3.6 and $7.4 million, respectively, and consisted primarily of distributions to common stockholders
of $4.4 million during each period and net repayments on our Credit Facility of $3.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2012.

Distributions to Stockholders

Common Stock Distributions

To qualify to be taxed as a RIC and thus avoid corporate-level federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders, we are required to
distribute to our stockholders on an annual basis at least 90.0% of our investment company taxable income. Additionally, the covenants in our Credit Facility generally restrict the amount of distributions to stockholders that we can pay out to be no
greater than our net investment income in each fiscal year. In accordance with these requirements, we declared and paid monthly cash distributions of $0.07 per common share for each of the three months from October 2013 through December 2013, which
totaled an aggregate of $4.4 million. In January 2014, our Board of Directors declared a monthly distribution of $0.07 per common share for each of January, February and March 2014. Our Board of Directors declared these distributions to our
stockholders based on our estimates of our investment company taxable income for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014.

For the
fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, which includes the three months ended December 31, 2012, our aggregate distributions to common stockholders totaled approximately $17.7 million, which were declared based on estimates of our investment
company taxable income for the fiscal year. For our fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, our common stockholder distributions declared and paid exceeded our current and accumulated earnings and profits (after taking into account our preferred
stock dividends), which resulted in a partial return of capital of approximately $1.3 million. The return of capital was primarily due to our accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) realized losses being recognized as
ordinary losses for federal income tax purposes. The federal income tax characterization of the common distributions declared and paid to our stockholders for our fiscal year ending September 30, 2014 will be determined at our fiscal year end
and cannot be determined at this time.

Preferred Stock Distributions

We also declared and paid monthly cash distributions of $0.1484375 per share of our 7.125% Series 2016 Term Preferred Stock (our Term Preferred Stock) for each of the three months from October
2013 through December 2013, which totaled an aggregate of $0.7 million. In January 2014, our Board of Directors declared a monthly distribution of $0.1484375 per share of Term Preferred Stock for each of January, February and March 2014. In
accordance with GAAP, we treat these monthly distributions to preferred stockholders as an operating expense. For federal income tax purposes, distributions paid by us to preferred stockholders generally constitute ordinary income to the extent of
our current and accumulated earnings and profits and have been characterized as ordinary income to our preferred stockholders since the Term Preferred Stock was issued in November 2011.

Equity

Registration Statement

We filed a universal shelf registration statement (our Registration Statement) on Form N-2 (File No. 333-185191) with the SEC on
November 29, 2012, and subsequently filed a Pre-effective Amendment No. 1 on January 17, 2013 that the SEC declared effective on January 18, 2013. On December 23, 2013, we filed Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, which the
SEC has not declared effective as of the date of this filing. Once declared effective, the Registration Statement will permit us to issue, through one or more transactions, up

to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, debt securities and warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock,
including through a combined offering of such securities. We have not issued any securities to date under the Registration Statement.

Common Stock

We anticipate
issuing equity securities to obtain additional capital in the future. However, we cannot determine the terms of any future equity issuances or whether we will be able to issue equity on terms favorable to us, or at all. Additionally, when our common
stock is trading below NAV per share, as it has consistently traded over the last four years, the 1940 Act restricts our ability to obtain additional capital by issuing common stock. Generally, the 1940 Act provides that we may not issue and sell
our common stock at a price below our then current NAV per common share, other than to our then existing common stockholders pursuant to a rights offering, without first obtaining approval from our stockholders and our independent directors. As of
January 31, 2014, our closing market price was $9.87 per common share, a 2.3% discount to our December 31, 2013 NAV per common share. To the extent that our common stock trades at a market price below our NAV per common share, we will
generally be precluded from raising equity capital through public offerings of our common stock, other than pursuant to stockholder approval or a rights offering to existing common stockholders.

At our Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on February 14, 2013, our stockholders approved a proposal authorizing us to sell shares of our common
stock at a price below our then current NAV per share subject to certain limitations (including, but not limited to, that the number of shares issued and sold pursuant to such authority does not exceed 25.0% of our then outstanding common stock
immediately prior to each such sale) for a period of one year from the date of approval, provided that our Board of Directors makes certain determinations prior to any such sale. At the upcoming annual stockholders meeting scheduled for
February 13, 2014, our stockholders will again be asked to vote in favor of renewing this proposal for another year. We have not issued any common stock since February 2008 and have never issued common stock below NAV share.

Term Preferred Stock

Pursuant to
our prior registration statement, in November 2011, we completed a public offering of 1.5 million shares of Term Preferred Stock at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. Gross proceeds totaled $38.5 million and net proceeds, after
deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us were approximately $36.4 million and were used to repay a portion of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. We incurred $2.1 million in total offering costs related to
these transactions, which have been recorded as an asset in accordance with GAAP and are being amortized over the redemption period ending December 31, 2016. No preferred stock had been issued prior to this issuance and we have not issued any
additional preferred stock since November 2011.

Our Term Preferred Stock provides for a fixed dividend equal to 7.125% per year, payable
monthly (which equates in total to approximately $2.7 million per year). We are required to redeem all of the outstanding Term Preferred Stock on December 31, 2016 for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share plus an amount equal to
accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, to the date of redemption. Our Term Preferred Stock has a preference over our common stock with respect to these dividends, whereby no distributions are payable on our common stock unless the stated
dividends, including any accrued and unpaid dividends, on our Term Preferred Stock have been paid in full. In addition, the two other potential redemption triggers for our Term Preferred Stock are as follows: (1) if we fail to maintain an asset
coverage ratio (as calculated under Section 18(h) of the 1940 Act) of at least 200.0%, we are required to redeem a portion of our outstanding Term Preferred Stock or otherwise cure the ratio redemption trigger; and (2) at our sole option,
at any time on or after December 31, 2012. No redemptions of our outstanding Term Preferred Stock have been made to date.

Our Term
Preferred Stock has been recorded as a liability in accordance with GAAP and, as such, affects our asset coverage, exposing us to additional leverage risks. In addition, our Term Preferred Stock is not convertible into our common stock or any other
security.

Revolving Credit Facility

On April 26, 2013, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Business Loan, entered into Amendment No. 6 to the fourth amended and restated credit agreement (our Credit Facility) to
extend the revolver period end date for one year to January 19, 2016. Our $137.0 million revolving Credit Facility was arranged by Key Equipment Finance Inc. (Key Equipment) as administrative agent. Keybank, Branch Banking and Trust
Company and ING Capital LLC also joined our Credit Facility as committed lenders. Subject to certain terms and conditions, our Credit Facility may be expanded from $137.0 million to a maximum of $237.0 million through the addition of other committed
lenders to the facility. The interest rates on advances under our Credit Facility generally bear interest at a 30-day LIBOR plus 3.75% per annum, with a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on undrawn amounts when our facility is drawn more
than 50% and 1.0% per annum on undrawn amounts when our facility is drawn less than 50%. If our Credit Facility is not renewed or extended by January 19, 2016, all principal and interest will be due and payable on or before
November 30, 2016. Prior to

##### Table of Contents

the April 26, 2013 amendment, on January 29, 2013, we, through Business Loan, amended our Credit Facility to remove the LIBOR minimum of 1.5% on advances. We incurred fees of $0.7
million in April 2013 and $0.6 million in January 2013 in connection with these amendments, which are being amortized through our Credit Facilitys revolver period end date of January 19, 2016. All other terms of our Credit Facility
remained generally unchanged at the time of these amendments.

Interest is payable monthly during the term of our Credit Facility. Available
borrowings are subject to various constraints imposed under our Credit Facility, based on the aggregate loan balance pledged by Business Loan, which varies as loans are added and repaid, regardless of whether such repayments are prepayments or made
as contractually required.

Our Credit Facility also requires that any interest or principal payments on pledged loans be remitted directly by
the borrower into a lockbox account with Key Equipment as custodian. Key Equipment, who also serves as the trustee of the account, generally remits the collected funds to us once a month.

Our Credit Facility contains covenants that require Business Loan to maintain its status as a separate legal entity, prohibit certain significant corporate transactions (such as mergers, consolidations,
liquidations or dissolutions), and restrict material changes to our credit and collection policies without the lenders consents. Our Credit Facility also generally limits payments on distributions to our stockholders to the aggregate net
investment income for each of the twelve month periods ending September 30, 2014, 2015 and 2016. Business Loan is also subject to certain limitations on the type of loan investments it can apply as collateral towards the borrowing base in order
to receive additional borrowing availability credit under our Credit Facility, including restrictions on geographic concentrations, sector concentrations, loan size, payment frequency and status, average life and lien property. Our Credit Facility
further requires Business Loan to comply with other financial and operational covenants, which obligate Business Loan to, among other things, maintain certain financial ratios, including asset and interest coverage and a minimum number of 20
obligors required in the borrowing base. Additionally, we are subject to a performance guaranty that requires us to maintain (i) a minimum net worth (defined in our Credit Facility to include our Term Preferred Stock) of $190.0 million plus
50.0% of all equity and subordinated debt raised after January 19, 2012, which equates to $190.0 million as of December 31, 2013, (ii) asset coverage with respect to senior securities representing indebtedness of at least 200.0%, in
accordance with Section 18 of the 1940 Act and (iii) our status as a BDC under the 1940 Act and as a RIC under the Code. As of December 31, 2013, and as defined in the performance guaranty of our Credit Facility, we had a net worth of
$250.6 million, asset coverage of 345.9% and an active status as a BDC and RIC. In addition, we had 33 obligors in the borrowing base of our Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013 we were in compliance with all of
our Credit Facility covenants.

On July 15, 2013, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Business Loan, entered into an interest
rate cap agreement with Keybank, effective July 9, 2013 and expiring January 19, 2016, for a notional amount of $35.0 million that effectively limits the interest rate on a portion of our borrowings under our revolving line of credit
pursuant to the terms of our Credit Facility. The one month LIBOR cap is set at 5.0%. We incurred a premium fee of $62 in conjunction with this agreement, which is recorded in other assets on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Assets and Liabilities.As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, the fair value of our interest rate cap agreement was $2 and $4, respectively.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have lines of credit
with certain of our portfolio companies that have not been fully drawn. Since these commitments have expiration dates and we expect many will never be fully drawn, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

When investing in certain private equity funds, we may have uncalled capital commitments depending on the agreed upon terms of our committed
ownership interest. These capital commitments usually have a specific date in the future set as a closing date, at which time the commitment is either funded or terminates. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had uncalled capital
commitments related to our partnership interest in Leeds Novamark Capital I, L.P.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations

Of our interest bearing debt investments as of December 31, 2013, 46.9% have
a success fee component, which enhances the yield on our debt investments. Unlike PIK income, we do not recognize success fees as income until they are received in cash. As a result, as of December 31, 2013, we have an aggregate off-balance
sheet success fee receivable of $15.3 million, or approximately $0.73 per common share, on our accruing debt investments that would be owed to us based on our current portfolio if fully paid off. Due to their contingent nature, there are no
guarantees that we will be able to collect all of these success fees or know the timing of such collections.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported consolidated amounts of assets and liabilities, including disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual
results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified our investment valuation process as our most critical accounting policy.

Investment Valuation

The most significant estimate inherent in the preparation of
our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is the valuation of investments and the related amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements
and Disclosures, defines fair value by focusing on exit price in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs. ASC 820 also
establishes the following three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.



| |  |  | Level 1inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active or inactive markets,
and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 2 inputs are in those markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not
current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value assessment. Unobservable inputs are
those inputs that reflect assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability and can include the Advisers own assumptions based upon the best available information.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, all of our investments were valued using Level 3 inputs. See Note 3Investments in our
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information regarding fair value measurements and our application of ASC 820.

General Valuation Policy

We carry our investments at fair value to the extent that
market quotations are readily available and reliable and otherwise at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. In determining the fair value of our investments, the Adviser has established an investment valuation policy (the
Policy). The Policy has been approved by our Board of Directors, and each quarter our Board of Directors reviews the Policy to determine if changes thereto are advisable and also reviews whether the Adviser has applied the Policy
consistently and votes whether to accept the recommended valuation of our investment portfolio. Such determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and estimates.

The Adviser uses valuation techniques in accordance with GAAP to value our portfolio. From time to time, the Adviser may accept an appraisal of a business in which we hold securities. These appraisals are
expensive and occur infrequently, but provide a third-party valuation opinion that may differ in results, techniques and scope used to value our investments. When the Adviser obtains these specific third-party appraisals, the Adviser uses estimates
of value provided by such appraisals and its own assumptions, including estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date, to value our investments.

##### Table of Contents

The recorded fair values of our investments may differ significantly from fair values that would have been
used had an active market for the securities existed. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be
different than the valuations currently assigned.

The Policy, which is summarized below, applies to the following categories of securities:



| |  |  | Publicly traded securities;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | Securities for which a limited market exists; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Securities for which no market exists.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------

Valuation Methods

Publicly traded securities: The Adviser determines the
value of a publicly traded security based on the closing price for the security on the exchange or securities market on which it is listed and primarily traded on the valuation date. To the extent that we own a restricted security that is not freely
tradable, but for which a public market otherwise exists, the Adviser will use the market value of that security adjusted for any decrease in value resulting from the restrictive feature. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we did
not have any investments in publicly traded securities.

Securities for which a limited market exists:The Adviser values securities
that are not traded on an established secondary securities market, but for which a limited market for the security exists, such as certain participations in, or assignments of, syndicated loans, at the quoted bid price, which are non-binding. In
valuing these assets, the Adviser assesses trading activity in an asset class and evaluates variances in prices and other market insights to determine if any available quoted prices are reliable. In general, if the Adviser concludes that quotes
based on active markets or trading activity may be relied upon, firm bid prices are requested; however, if firm bid prices are unavailable, the Adviser bases the value of the security upon the indicative bid price (IBP) offered by the
respective originating syndication agents trading desk, or secondary desk, on or near the valuation date. To the extent that the Adviser uses the IBP as a basis for valuing the security, it may take further steps to consider additional
information to validate that price in accordance with the Policy, including but not limited to reviewing a range of indicative bids to the extent the Adviser has ready access to such qualified information.

In the event these limited markets become illiquid such that market prices are no longer readily available, the Adviser will value our syndicated loans
using alternative methods, such as estimated net present values of the future cash flows or discounted cash flows (DCF). The use of a DCF methodology follows that prescribed by ASC 820, which provides guidance on the use of a reporting
entitys own assumptions about future cash flows and risk-adjusted discount rates when relevant observable inputs, such as quotes in active markets, are not available. When relevant observable market data does not exist, an alternative outlined
in ASC 820 is the valuation of investments based on DCF. For the purposes of using DCF to provide fair value estimates, the Adviser considers multiple inputs such as a risk-adjusted discount rate that incorporates adjustments that market
participants would make both for nonperformance and liquidity risks. As such, the Adviser develops a modified discount rate approach that incorporates risk premiums including, among other things, increased probability of default, higher loss given
default or increased liquidity risk. The DCF valuations applied to the syndicated loans provide an estimate of what the Adviser believes a market participant would pay to purchase a syndicated loan in an active market, thereby establishing a fair
value. The Adviser applies the DCF methodology in illiquid markets until quoted prices are available or are deemed reliable based on trading activity.

As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, the Adviser determined that the IBPs were reliable indicators of fair value for our syndicate investments. However, because of the private nature of
this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly-reported), we determined that these valuation inputs were classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820.

Securities for which no market exists: The valuation methodology for securities for which no market exists falls into four categories:
(A) portfolio investments comprised solely of debt securities; (B) portfolio investments in controlled companies comprised of a bundle of securities, which can include debt and equity securities; (C) portfolio investments in
non-controlled companies comprised of a bundle of investments, which can include debt and equity securities; and (D) portfolio investments comprised of non-publicly traded non-control equity securities of other funds.



|(A) | Portfolio investments comprised solely of debt securities: Debt securities that are not publicly traded on an established securities market, or for which a
market does not exist (Non-Public Debt Securities), and that are issued by portfolio companies in which we have no equity or equity-like securities, are fair valued utilizing opinions of value submitted to the Adviser by
Standard & Poors Securities Evaluations, Inc. (SPSE) and its own assumptions in the absence of observable market data, including synthetic credit ratings, estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate
spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. The Adviser may also submit PIK interest to SPSE for its evaluation when it is determined that PIK interest is likely to be received.

##### Table of Contents

In the case of Non-Public Debt Securities, the Adviser has engaged SPSE to submit opinions
of value for our debt securities that are issued by portfolio companies in which we own no equity, or equity-like securities. SPSE will only evaluate the debt portion of our investments for which the Adviser specifically requests evaluation, and may
decline to make requested evaluations for any reason, at its sole discretion. Quarterly, the Adviser collects data with respect to the investments (which includes portfolio company financial and operational performance and the information described
below under Credit Information, the risk ratings of the loans described below under Loan Grading and Risk Rating and the factors described hereunder). This portfolio company data is then forwarded to
SPSE for review and analysis. SPSE makes its independent assessment of the data that the Adviser has assembled and assesses its independent data to form an opinion as to what they consider to be the market values for the securities. With regard to
its work, SPSE has issued the following paragraph:

SPSE provides evaluated price opinions which are reflective of what SPSE
believes the bid side of the market would be for each loan after careful review and analysis of descriptive, market and credit information. Each price reflects SPSEs best judgment based upon careful examination of a variety of market factors.
Because of fluctuation in the market and in other factors beyond its control, SPSE cannot guarantee these evaluations. The evaluations reflect the market prices, or estimates thereof, on the date specified. The prices are based on comparable market
prices for similar securities. Market information has been obtained from reputable secondary market sources. Although these sources are considered reliable, SPSE cannot guarantee their accuracy.

SPSE opinions of the value of our debt securities that are issued by portfolio companies in which we do not own equity, or equity-like
securities are submitted to our Board of Directors along with the Advisers supplemental assessment and recommendation regarding valuation of each of these investments. The Adviser generally accepts the opinion of value given by SPSE; however,
in certain limited circumstances, such as when the Adviser may learn new information regarding an investment between the time of submission to SPSE and the date of our Board of Directors assessment, the Advisers conclusions as to value
may differ from the opinion of value delivered by SPSE. Our Board of Directors then reviews whether the Adviser has followed its established procedures for determinations of fair value and votes to accept or reject the recommended valuation of our
investment portfolio.

Because there is a delay between when we close an investment and when the investment can be evaluated by
SPSE, new loans are not valued immediately by SPSE; rather, the Adviser makes its own determination about the value of these investments in accordance with our Policy using the methods described herein.



|(B) | Portfolio investments in controlled companies comprised of a bundle of securities, which can include debt and equity securities: The fair value of these
investments is determined based on the total enterprise value (TEV) of the portfolio company, or issuer, utilizing a liquidity waterfall approach under ASC 820 for our Non-Public Debt Securities and equity or equity-like securities
(e.g., preferred equity, common equity or other equity-like securities) that are purchased together as part of a package, where we control or could gain control through an option or warrant security; both the debt and equity securities of the
portfolio investment would exit in the mergers and acquisitions market as the principal market, generally through a sale or recapitalization of the portfolio company. We generally exit the debt and equity securities of an issuer at the same time.
Applying the liquidity waterfall approach to all of our investments in an issuer, the Adviser first calculates the TEV of the issuer by incorporating some or all of the following factors:
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the issuers ability to make payments;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | the earnings of the issuer;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | recent sales to third parties of similar securities;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the comparison to publicly traded securities; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DCF or other pertinent factors.
| | - |  | -------------------------------

In gathering the sales to third parties of similar securities, the Adviser generally references industry statistics and may use outside experts. TEV is only an estimate of value and may not be the value
received in an actual sale. Once the Adviser has estimated the TEV of the issuer, it will subtract the value of all the debt securities of the issuer, which are valued at the contractual principal balance. Fair values of these debt securities are
discounted for any shortfall of TEV over the total debt outstanding for the issuer. Once the values for all outstanding senior securities, which include all the debt securities, have been subtracted from the TEV of the issuer, the remaining amount,
if any, is used to determine the value of the issuers equity or equity-like securities. If, in the Advisers judgment, the liquidity waterfall approach does not accurately reflect the value of the debt component, the Adviser may recommend
that we use a valuation by SPSE, or, if that is unavailable, a DCF valuation technique.



|(C) | Portfolio investments in non-controlled companies comprised of a bundle of securities, which can include debt and equity securities: The Adviser
values Non-Public Debt Securities that are purchased together with equity or equity-like securities from the same portfolio company, or issuer, for which we do not control or cannot gain control as of the measurement date, using a hypothetical
secondary market as our principal market. In accordance with ASC 820 (as amended by the FASBs Accounting

| | Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), (ASU 2011-04)), the Adviser has defined our unit of account at the investment level (either debt or equity) and as such determines our fair value of these
non-control investments assuming the sale of an individual security using the standalone premise of value. As such, the Adviser estimates the fair value of the debt component using estimates of value provided by SPSE and the its own assumptions in
the absence of observable market data, including synthetic credit ratings, estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. For equity or equity-like securities of investments
for which we do not control or cannot gain control as of the measurement date, the Adviser estimates the fair value of the equity based on factors such as the overall value of the issuer, the relative fair value of other units of account including
debt, or other relative value approaches. Consideration is also given to capital structure and other contractual obligations that may impact the fair value of the equity. Furthermore, the Adviser may utilize comparable values of similar companies,
recent investments and indices with similar structures and risk characteristics or DCF valuation techniques and, in the absence of other observable market data, its own assumptions.

|(D) | Portfolio investments comprised of non-publicly traded non-control equity securities of other funds: The Adviser generally values any uninvested capital of the
non-control fund at par value and values any invested capital at the NAV provided by the non-control fund.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Due to the
uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly and materially from the values that would have been obtained had a ready market for the securities existed. Additionally, changes in the market
environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned. There is no single standard for determining
fair value in good faith, as fair value depends upon circumstances of each individual case. In general, fair value is the amount that the Adviser might reasonably expect us to receive upon the current sale of the security in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date.

Other Valuation Considerations

From time to time, depending on certain circumstances, the Adviser may use the following valuation considerations, including but not limited to:



| |  |  | the nature and realizable value of the collateral;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the portfolio companys earnings and cash flows and its ability to make payments on its obligations;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the markets in which the portfolio company does business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the comparison to publicly traded companies; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DCF and other relevant factors.

Because such valuations, particularly valuations of private securities and private companies, are not susceptible to precise determination, may fluctuate over short periods of time, and may be based on
estimates, the Advisers determinations of fair value may differ from the values that might have actually resulted had a readily available market for these securities been available.

Credit Information

The Adviser monitors a wide variety of key credit statistics
that provide information regarding our portfolio companies to help us assess credit quality and portfolio performance. We, through the Adviser, participate in periodic board meetings of our portfolio companies in which we hold board seats and also
require them to provide annual audited and monthly unaudited financial statements. Using these statements or comparable information and board discussions, the Adviser calculates and evaluates the credit statistics.

Loan Grading and Risk Rating

As part of
the Advisers valuation procedures above, it risk rates all of our investments in debt securities. The Adviser does not risk rate our equity securities. For syndicated loans that have been rated by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating
Organization (NRSRO) (as defined in Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act), the Adviser uses the NRSROs risk rating for such security. For all other debt securities, the Adviser uses a proprietary risk rating system. The Advisers risk
rating system uses a scale of 0 to >10, with >10 being the lowest probability of default. This system is used to estimate the probability of default on debt securities and the expected loss if there is a default. These types of systems are
referred to as risk rating systems and are used by banks and rating agencies. The risk rating system covers both qualitative and quantitative aspects of the business and the securities we hold.

For the debt securities for which the Adviser does not use a third-party NRSRO risk rating, it seeks to have its risk rating system mirror the risk
rating systems of major risk rating organizations, such as those provided by an NRSRO. While the Adviser seeks to mirror the NRSRO systems, we cannot provide any assurance that the Advisers risk rating system will provide the same risk rating
as

an NRSRO for these securities. The following chart is an estimate of the relationship of the Advisers risk rating system to the designations used by two NRSROs as they risk rate debt
securities of major companies. Because the Advisers system rates debt securities of companies that are unrated by any NRSRO, there can be no assurance that the correlation to the NRSRO set out below is accurate. The Adviser believes its risk
rating would be higher than a typical NRSRO risk rating because the risk rating of the typical NRSRO is designed for larger businesses. However, the Advisers risk rating has been designed to risk rate the securities of smaller businesses that
are not rated by a typical NRSRO. Therefore, when the Adviser uses its risk rating on larger business securities, the risk rating is higher than a typical NRSRO rating. The Adviser believes the primary difference between the its risk rating
and the rating of a typical NRSRO is that the Advisers risk rating uses more quantitative determinants and includes qualitative determinants that it believes are not used in the NRSRO rating. It is the Advisers understanding that most
debt securities of medium-sized companies do not exceed the grade of BBB on an NRSRO scale, so there would be no debt securities in the middle market that would meet the definition of AAA, AA or A. Therefore, the Advisers scale begins with the
designation >10 as the best risk rating which may be equivalent to a BBB from an NRSRO; however, no assurance can be given that a >10 on the Advisers scale is equal to a BBB or Baa2 on an NRSRO scale. The scale below gives an indication
of the probability of default and the magnitude of the expected loss if there is a default.

Tax Status

Federal Income Taxes

We intend to continue to maintain our qualification as a RIC
under Subchapter M of the Code for federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, we are not subject to federal income tax on the portion of our taxable income and gains that we distribute to our stockholders. To maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must
meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, in order to qualify to be taxed as a RIC, we must also meet certain annual stockholder distribution requirements. To satisfy the RIC annual distribution requirement,
we must distribute to stockholders at least 90.0% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. Our policy generally is to make distributions to our stockholders in an amount up to 100.0% of our investment company taxable income.

In an effort to limit certain federal excise taxes imposed on RICs, we currently intend to distribute to our stockholders, during each
calendar year, an amount at least equal to the sum of: (1) 98.0% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year, and
(3) any ordinary income and capital gain net income from preceding years that were not distributed during such years. Under the RIC Modernization Act (the RIC Act), we are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in
taxable years beginning after September 30, 2011, for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry
an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or
long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as permitted under the previous regulation.

Revenue Recognition

Interest Income Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums, acquisition costs, and amendment fees and the accretion of original issue discounts (OID), is recorded on the accrual basis to the
extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Generally, when a loan becomes 90 days or more past due, or if our qualitative assessment indicates that the debtor is unable to service its debt or other obligations, we will place the loan on
non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until the borrower has demonstrated the ability and intent to pay contractual amounts due. However, we remain contractually entitled to this
interest. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to the cost basis, depending upon managements judgment. Generally, non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and
interest are paid and, in managements judgment, are likely to remain current, or, due to a restructuring, the interest income is deemed to be collectable. As of December 31, 2013, one portfolio company was on non-accrual with a debt cost
basis of approximately $29.2 million, or 9.2% of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio, and a debt fair value of approximately $7.3 million, or 2.8% of the fair value of all debt investments in our portfolio. As of
September 30, 2013, two portfolio companies were on non-accrual with an aggregate debt cost basis of approximately $39.5 million, or 12.6% of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio, and an aggregate debt fair value of
approximately $5.8 million, or 2.4% of the fair value of all debt investments in our portfolio.

We currently hold, and we expect to hold in
the future, some loans in our portfolio that contain OID or PIK provisions. We recognize OID for loans originally issued at discounts and recognize the income over the life of the obligation based on an effective yield calculation. PIK interest,
computed at the contractual rate specified in a loan agreement, is added to the principal balance of a loan and recorded as income over the life of the obligation. Thus, the actual collection of PIK income may be deferred until the time of debt
principal repayment. To maintain our ability to be taxed as a RIC, we may need to pay out both of our OID and PIK non-cash income amounts in the form of distributions, even though we have not yet collected the cash.

##### Table of Contents

As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had 22 and 19 original OID loans, respectively,
primarily from the syndicated loans in our portfolio. We recorded OID income of $61 and $72 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The unamortized balance of OID investments as of December 31 and
September 30, 2013 totaled $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, we had four investments which had a PIK interest component, and as of September 30, 2013, we had three investments which had a PIK
interest component. We recorded PIK income of $92 and $53 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We collected $0 PIK interest in cash during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Other Income Recognition

We generally record success fees upon receipt of cash. Success fees are contractually due upon a change of control in a portfolio company. We received $0.2 million of success fees during the three months
ended December 31, 2013, which resulted from our sale of substantially all of the assets in Lindmark, and the ensuing pay down of our debt investments at par in September 2013. We received $1.1 million of success fees during the three months
ended December 31, 2012, which resulted from our exit of Westlake at par during the period. As of December 31 and September 30, 2013, we had an aggregate off-balance sheet success fee receivable of approximately $15.3 million and
$14.8 million, respectively, on our accruing debt investments.

We generally record prepayment fees upon receipt of cash. Prepayment fees are
contractually due at the time of an investments exit, based on the prepayment fee schedule. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we did not receive any prepayment fees. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we
received an aggregate of $0.5 million in prepayment fees which resulted from the early payoffs of four of our syndicated loans during the period.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments is accrued to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected and if we have the option to collect such amounts in cash. During the three months
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we did not record or collect any dividend income on our preferred equity investments.

Success fees,
prepayment fees and dividend income are all recorded in other income in our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2  Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies in the accompanying notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for a description and our adoption of recent accounting pronouncements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market
changes that affect market sensitive instruments. The prices of securities held by us may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by us; conditions affecting the general
economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and interest rate fluctuations.

The
primary risk we believe we are exposed to is interest rate risk. Because we borrow money to make investments, our net investment income is dependent upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest those
funds. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. We use a combination of debt and equity capital to finance our investing
activities. We may use interest rate risk management techniques from time to time to limit our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Such techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act.

We target to have approximately 10.0% of the loans in our portfolio at fixed rates, with approximately 90.0% made at variable rates or
variable rates with a floor. As of December 31, 2013, our portfolio consisted of the following:



|       |  |               
|------ |  | --------------
|86.4%  |  | variable rates
|13.6%  |  | fixed rates   
|       |  |               
|100.0% |  | total         
|       |  |               

All of our variable-rate debt investments have rates generally associated with either the current LIBOR or prime rate.

In July 2013, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Business Loan, entered into an interest rate cap agreement with Keybank, effective
July 9, 2013 and expiring January 19, 2016, for a notional amount of $35.0 million that effectively limits the interest rate on a portion of our borrowings under our revolving line of credit pursuant to the terms of our Credit Facility.
This agreement will entitle us to receive payments, if any, equal to the amount by which interest payments on the current notational amount at the one month



52



---

##### Table of Contents

LIBOR exceed the payments on the current notional amount at 5.0%. The agreement therefore helps mitigate our exposure to increases in interest rates on our borrowings on our Credit Facility,
which are at variable rates. The use of a cap agreement involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. Cap agreements may be considered to be illiquid. Although we will not enter into any
such agreements unless we believe that the other party to the transaction is credit worthy, we bear the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under such agreements in the event of default or bankruptcy of the agreement counterparty. As
of December 31, 2013, our interest rate cap agreement had a minimal fair value.

There have been no material changes in the quantitative
and qualitative market risk disclosures for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, as filed with the SEC on November 20, 2013.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2013 (the end
of the period covered by this report), we, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness and design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management,
including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level in timely alerting management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of material information about us required to be included in periodic SEC filings. However, in evaluation of 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 possible controls and procedures.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal controls for the three months ended December 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.
