Description of Operations and Basis
of Presentation



Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. (the “Company”) is
an investment company that was incorporated in the State of Minnesota on January 10, 2006 under the name WPP Acquisition, Inc.  The
Company’s name was subsequently changed to Poker Magic, Inc. Our business from January 10, 2006 (inception) through December
12, 2012 consisted primarily of marketing and licensing a new form of poker-based table game to casinos and on-line gaming facilities
in the United States.



On December 13, 2012, we filed a Form N-8A with the SEC, notifying
the SEC that we intended to convert the Company to an internally managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). On February 7, 2013, we filed Form N-54A, notifying the SEC of
our election to become a business development company (“BDC”). Subsequently, on May 13, 2013, we filed Form N-8F to
deregister as a registered investment company based upon our prior filing to become a BDC. On September 25, 2013, the SEC issued
an order under Section 8(f) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 declaring that the Company has ceased to be an investment company.



We are regulated as a BDC and plan to be taxed as a regulated
investment company, although we currently have not elected this tax status. As a BDC, we primarily focus on investing in or lending
to privately held and publicly traded companies and making managerial assistance available to such companies. A BDC may provide
shareholders with the ability to retain the liquidity of a publicly traded stock, while sharing in the possible benefits of investing
in emerging-growth or expansion-stage companies. Our future revenues will relate to the earnings we receive from the sale of securities,
dividends and interest from our portfolio investments. The Company’s objective is to obtain returns from investments in securities
and other investment opportunities available to BDCs sunder the 1940 Act. We intend to invest capital in portfolio companies for
purposes of financing acquisitions, recapitalizations, buyouts, organic growth and working capital. Buyouts generally include transactions
that involve the acquisition of a controlling interest in an entity, either by management or other investors. Organic growth refers
to growth through the internal operations of the company, through investments in marketing initiatives, capital expenditures or
other internal growth initiatives, rather than growth by means of an acquisition. We plan to identify potential investments through
multiple sources, including private equity sponsors, investment bankers, brokers, owners and operators of businesses and other
persons within our professional network. We expect to base our investment decisions on analyses of potential customers’ business
operations and asset valuations as well as financing structure, utilizing risk management methods, pricing tools, due diligence
methodologies and data management processes designed to help us assess risk, establish appropriate pricing, and maximize our return
on investment. Subject to regulations set forth in the 1940 Act and applicable to BDCs, we plan to invest in private companies,
small-cap public stocks, notes and other forms of debt, investment contracts, and other investments commonly referred to as securities.



On January 17, 2013, we amended and restated
our Articles of Incorporation.  The amendment and restatement included a change in our name from "Poker Magic, Inc."
to "Mill City Ventures III, Ltd."



Interim Financial Information



The balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, which has been derived
from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014 or any other period. The accompanying
financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto contained
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The financial information furnished in this report is unaudited
and reflects all adjustments which are normal recurring adjustments and, which in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly
present the results of the interim periods presented in order to make the financial statements not misleading.



7







Use of Estimates



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management and our independent board members to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.



Cash Deposits



We maintain our cash balances in financial institutions and
with regulated financial investment brokers. Cash on deposit in excess of FDIC and similar coverage is subject to the usual banking
risk of funds in excess of those limits.



Fair Value of Financial Instruments



The carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments,
including cash, receivable from sale of investments, interest and dividends receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and notes
payable approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.



In the normal course of business, we may utilize derivative
financial instruments (principally options) in connection with our trading activities. We record our derivative activities at fair
value. Gains and losses from derivative financial instruments are included in net gain (loss) on investments in the statement of
operations.



Investment Valuation



Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized
gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis
of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during
the period, net of recoveries. Unrealized gains or losses primarily reflect the change in investment values, including the reversal
of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized.



Investments for which market quotations are readily available
are typically valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, we look at a number of factors to determine
if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. Debt and equity securities
that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
by our Board of Directors or the Valuation Committee of the board, based on, among other things, the input of our executive management,
audit committee and independent third-party valuation expert that may be engaged by management to assist in the valuation of our
portfolio investments, but in all cases consistent with our written valuation policies and procedures.



Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value
of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to
period. Additionally, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had
a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. Further,
such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment
in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it.



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 unrealized gains or losses reflected in the valuations currently assigned.



Our investment portfolio investments at
December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014 were $3,342,319 and $5,874,447, respectively.



Allocation of Net Gains and Losses



All income, gains, losses, deductions and
credits for any investment are allocated to shareholders whose capital was used to purchase such investments. Allocations are made
in a manner proportionate to the shares owned.



8







Income Taxes



We account for income taxes under the liability method. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect
taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be
realized.



Realized Gains and Losses, Interest and Dividend Income
Recognition



Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated
using the specific investment method.



Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes
the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized
into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments
represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.



Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal
or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected
in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received
on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability.
Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment,
are likely to remain current. We may make exceptions to this if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process
of collection.



Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as
dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be
collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the
ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.



Management and Service Fees



We do not incur expenses related to management and service fees.
Our executive management team manages our investments as part of their employment responsibilities.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In
May 2014, theFinancial Accounting Standards Boardissued new accounting
guidance related to revenue recognition. This new standard will replace all current U.S. GAAP guidance on this topic and eliminate
all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue
is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services
to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods
or services. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2017 and can be applied either retrospectively
to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.We are currently assessing the
impact on the Company’s financial statements.



NOTE 2—RESULTS PER COMMON SHARE



Basic net increase in net assets resulting from operations and
net loss per common share is computed by dividing net increase in net assets resulting from operations or net loss by the weighted
average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in
the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common share follows:



|                                                                                     |  | For the Three Months Ended June 30, |            |   | For the Six Months Ended June 30, |

NOTE 5—FAIR VALUE OF INVESTMENTS



Investment Risks



Our investments are subject to a variety of risks, including
market risk (the potential loss that can be caused by a change in the fair value of the instrument) and credit risk (. the risk
from counterparties failing to perform pursuant to the terms of their agreements with the us.



Fair Value Hierarchy



The fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels is explained below:



Level 1



Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 securities.
Because valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these
securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.



10







Level 2



Pricing inputs are other than used in Level 1, which include
the closing bid price for unlisted marketable securities, which are available in active or inactive markets for identical investments
or liabilities, other direct or indirect observable inputs that can be corroborated by market data or the use of models or other
valuation methodologies as of the reporting date.



Level 3



Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include
situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require
significant management judgment or estimation.



The table below presents the balances of assets measured at
fair value on a recurring basis by level within the hierarchy.

NOTE 6—MINIMUM ASSET COVERAGE



We have elected to be treated as a BDC. As such, we are required
to meet various regulatory tests. Among other things, these tests will require us to invest at least 70% of our total assets in
private or small-cap public U.S.-based companies, and to maintain a coverage ratio of total net assets to total senior securities
and borrowings (including accrued interest payable) of at least 200%. As of June 30, 2014, we had total net assets of $11,075,824
and total senior securities and borrowings (including accrued interest payable) of $0, which asset coverage is in excess of
the minimum coverage ratio for a BDC.



NOTE 7—INCOME TAXES



We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment
company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable
income and net capital gain to shareholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and
gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis
differences relating to shareholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to
paid-in-capital.

common stock of that company.

General Overview



Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. is a Minnesota corporation that
was incorporated in January 2006. Until December 13, 2012, we were a development-stage company that previously focused on promoting
and placing our Winner’s Pot Poker game online and into casinos and entertainment facilities nationwide, including those
located in Native American tribal lands. On December 13, 2012, we filed a Form N-8A with the SEC, notifying the SEC of our intent
to register as an internally managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
“1940 Act”). On February 7, 2013, we filed Form N-54A, Notification of Election to be Subject to Sections 55 through
65 of the 1940 Act, to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”). Subsequently, on May 13, 2013, we filed
Form N-8F to deregister as a registered investment company based upon our prior filing to become a BDC. On September 25, 2013,
the SEC issued an order under Section 8(f) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 declaring that we had ceased to be an investment
company. We are regulated as a BDC and we plan to be taxed as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) although we have
not made an election to be taxed as a RIC at this time.



Business Model and Strategy



As a BDC, we primarily focus on investing in, lending to and
making managerial assistance available to privately held and publicly traded companies. A BDC may provide shareholders with the
ability to retain the liquidity of a publicly traded stock, while sharing in the possible benefits of investing in emerging-growth
or expansion-stage companies.



Our future revenues will relate to the earnings we receive from
our portfolio investments. Our objective is to obtain superior returns from investments in securities and other investment opportunities
available to BDC’s under the 1940 Act. We intend to invest capital in portfolio companies for purposes of financing acquisitions,
recapitalizations, buyouts, organic growth and working capital. Buyouts generally include transactions that involve the acquisition
of a controlling interest in an entity, either by management or other investors. Organic growth refers to growth through the internal
operations of the company, through investments in marketing initiatives, capital expenditures or other internal growth initiatives,
rather than growth by means of an acquisition.



We plan to identify potential investments through multiple sources,
including private equity sponsors, investment bankers, brokers, our Board of Directors, owners and operators of businesses and
other persons within our professional network. We will base our investment decisions primarily on analyses of potential growth
prospects of business operations and asset valuations. Subject to applicable BDC regulations set forth in the 1940 Act, we plan
to invest in private companies, small-cap public stocks, notes and other forms of debt, investment contracts, and other investments
commonly referred to as securities.

As the table above demonstrates, we incurred operating expenses
of $294,297 and $352,070 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A discussion and analysis of the
material components of our operating expenses appears below.



Professional fees. Our professional fees were
$72,382 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to $135,947 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. The decrease
in professional fees is due to non-recurring professional fees incurred during the prior period that related to responding to and
participating in comments from an examination by the SEC of our conversion to a BDC and developing additional policies and procedures
related to or required under the 1940 Act.



Payroll expense and executive management compensation.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $81,919 in payroll expense for our executive management compared to
$121,265 incurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. The decrease was due to the elimination of an accrued bonus
for the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer which those officers elected not to receive.



Insurance expense. During the six-month period
ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $58,116 in insurance expense compared to $36,355 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.
Insurance expense relates to our annual director and officer insurance, fidelity bond premiums and business insurance amortized
ratably over the covered period.



Directors’ fees expense. Our directors’
fees expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 was $30,000 compared to $15,000 for the six-month period ended June 30,
2013. We appointed independent members (qualifying as non-interested persons under the 1940 Act) to our Board of Directors and
began compensating our directors as part of our transition to a BDC.



Occupancy expense. Occupancy expense related
to a temporary arrangement to reimburse the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for utilization of their respective
office space temporarily beginning April 1, 2013 until the long-term leased space was completed and available for occupancy. The
reimbursement was categorized in Other General and Administrative Expenses. Our occupancy expenses for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $38,201 and $0.

As the table above demonstrates, we incurred operating expenses
of $142,999 and $160,885 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A discussion and analysis of the
material components of our operating expenses appears below.



Professional fees. Our professional fees were
$35,205 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to $53,688 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013. The
decrease in professional fees is due to non-recurring professional fees incurred during the prior period that related to responding
to and participating in comments from an examination by the SEC of our conversion to a BDC and developing additional policies and
procedures related to or required under the 1940 Act.



Payroll expense and executive management compensation.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $40,473 in payroll expense for our executive management compared
to $40,528 incurred during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013. Executive compensation remained relatively consistent between
the two periods.



Insurance expense. During the three-month
period ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $24,795 in insurance expense compared to $33,714 for the three-month period ended June
30, 2013. Insurance expense relates to our annual director and officer insurance, fidelity bond premiums and business insurance
amortized ratably over the covered period.



Directors’ fees expense. Our directors’
fees expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $15,000 each. We appointed independent members (qualifying
as non-interested persons under the 1940 Act) to our Board of Directors and began compensating our directors as part of our transition
to a BDC.



Occupancy expense. Occupancy expense related
to a temporary arrangement to reimburse the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for utilization of their respective
office space temporarily beginning April 1, 2013 until the long-term leased space was completed and available for occupancy. The
reimbursement was categorized in Other General and Administrative expenses. Our occupancy expenses for the three-month periods
ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $20,795 and $0.



Net Investment Loss



Net investment loss represents the difference between investment
income and operating expenses. Our net investment loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $167,518 and $341,658,
respectively.

Net Realized Gains, Increase in Net Assets
from Net Changes in Unrealized Appreciation



Net realized gains on investments for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2014 was $200,903. The net realized gain of $193,403 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 was due to the sale
of 204,850 shares of CombiMatrix common stock and the receipt of an additional $7,500 in post-closing proceeds from the 2013 Great
Plains Sands sale transaction.



The net increase in net assets from changes in unrealized appreciation
was $520,609. The primary reason for the $520,609 increase in net assets from the net change in unrealized appreciation was the
mark-up in the value of our investment in Mix 1 Life warrants . The increase in value for the Mix 1 Life warrants was a result
of the intrinsic value of the warrant exercise price compared to the market price of common shares purchased under the warrant.
This increase was partially offset by the decrease in the value of our investment in Tzfat Spirits of Israel LLC. The mark down
in valuation was caused by a review of the company’s financial statements which showed a negative cash flow and the incurrence
of significant debt.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



Summary cash flow data is as follows:

|Cash, end of period             |  | $                         | 5,049,232 



The cash used in operating activities for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2014 was primarily from our investment transactions.



On March 6, 2013, we closed on a total of $8,850,000 from a
private placement of common stock at a per-share price of $1.00 and issued 8,850,000 shares of common stock. On March 20, 2013,
we closed on the sale of an additional $1,315,000 of common stock at a per-share price of $1.00, and issued 1,315,000 shares of
common stock.



Regulation as a BDC



As a BDC, we are regulated by the 1940 Act. A BDC must be organized
in the United States for the purpose of investing in or lending to primarily private companies, or certain small-cap public companies,
and, with limited exceptions, making managerial assistance available to them. A BDC may use capital provided by public shareholders
and from other sources to make long-term, private investments in businesses. A BDC may provide shareholders the ability to retain
the liquidity of a publicly traded stock while sharing in the possible benefits, if any, of investing in primarily privately owned
or small-cap public companies.



We may not change the nature of our business so as to cease
to be, or withdraw our election as, a BDC unless authorized by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities, as required
by the 1940 Act. A majority of the outstanding voting securities of a company is defined under the 1940 Act as the lesser of: (a)
67% or more of such company’s voting securities present at a meeting if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities
of such company are present or represented by proxy; or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of such company.
We do not anticipate any substantial change in the nature of our business.



As with other companies regulated by the 1940 Act, a BDC must
adhere to certain substantive regulatory requirements. A majority of our directors must be persons who are not “interested
persons,” as that term is defined in the 1940 Act. Additionally, we are required to provide and maintain a bond issued by
a reputable fidelity insurance company to protect the BDC. Furthermore, as a BDC, we are prohibited from protecting any director
or officer against any liability to us or our shareholders arising from willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless
disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such person’s office.



18







We are generally not able to sell our common stock at a price
below net asset value per share. We may, however, sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share (i) in connection
with a rights offering to our existing shareholders, (ii) with the consent of shareholders holding a majority of our common
stock, or (iii) under such other circumstances as the SEC may permit. For example, we may sell our common stock at a price below
the then-current net asset value of our common stock if our Board of Directors determines that such sale is in our best interests
and the best interests of our shareholders, and our shareholders approve our policy and practice of making such sales. In addition,
we may generally issue new shares of our common stock at a price below net asset value in rights offerings to our existing shareholders,
in payment of dividends and in certain other limited circumstances. No such offerings have occurred as of the date of this filing.



We will be permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple
classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to our common stock, but only if our “asset coverage,” as defined
in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 200% immediately after each such issuance. In addition, while any senior securities remain
outstanding, we must not make any dividend distribution to our shareholders or repurchase securities unless we meet the applicable
asset-coverage ratios at the time of the dividend distribution or repurchase. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value
of our total assets for temporary or emergency purposes.



We are prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating
in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our directors who are not interested persons and, in
some cases, prior approval by the SEC. Subject to certain exceptions, as a BDC, we are generally not permitted to invest in any
portfolio company in which our affiliates currently have an investment or to make any co-investments with our affiliates without
an exemptive order from the SEC.



We will be periodically examined by the SEC for compliance with
the 1940 Act, the rules and regulations thereunder, and good governance practices. We will not “concentrate” our investments
(i.e., invest 25% or more of our assets in any particular industry, determined at the time of investment). We will be required
to provide and maintain a bond issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company to protect us against larceny and embezzlement.
Furthermore, as a BDC, we are prohibited from indemnifying any director or officer against any liability to our shareholders arising
from willful malfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such person’s
office. We are required to adopt and implement written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violation of the
federal securities laws, review these policies and procedures annually for their adequacy and the effectiveness of their implementation.



Qualifying Assets



Under the 1940 Act, a BDC may not acquire any asset other than
“qualifying assets” listed in Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying
assets represent at least 70% of the BDC’s total assets. The principal categories of qualifying assets relevant to our business
are the following:



(1) Securities of an “eligible
portfolio company” purchased from the issuer of such securities or from a person who is, or who was within the prior 13 months
of the date of purchase, an affiliate of the issuer or from any other person (subject to limitation by SEC rules), in any case
in transactions not involving any public offering. The 1940 Act defines an “eligible portfolio company” as any issuer
which:



(a) is organized under the laws of, and has its principal
place of business in, the United States;



(b) is not an investment company or a company that
would be an investment company but for certain exclusions under the 1940 Act; and



(c) satisfies one of the following:



| | (i)· | does not have outstanding any class of securities with respect to which a broker or dealer may extend margin credit (or, if a broker or dealer may in fact extend or maintain margin credit to a customer with respect to such securities, then at the time of purchase of the issuer’s securities (A) the BDC owns at least 50% of the greatest number of outstanding and issuable equity securities of such issuer (i.e., 50% determined on a fully diluted basis) and the greatest amount of debt securities of such issuer), (B) the BDC is one of the 20 largest holders of record of the issuer’s outstanding voting securities);
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | is controlled by a BDC or a group of companies acting together that includes a BDC, the BDC does in fact exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of the issuer, and, as a result of such control, the BDC has an affiliated person serving as a director of the eligible portfolio company;
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | is a small and solvent company having total assets of not more than $4 million and capital and surplus of not less than $2 million, subject to adjustment by SEC rules; or
| | ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



19









| | (iv) | by virtue of SEC Rule 2a-46, (A) does not have any class of securities listed on a national securities exchange, or (B) has a class of securities listed on a national securities exchange but an aggregate market value (as computed under such rule) of outstanding voting and non-voting common equity of less than $250 million.
| | ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



(2) Securities of any eligible
portfolio company (as defined above) that we control through having a person serving on the board of directors of the issuer.



(3) Securities purchased from
an issuer, or from a person who is, or was in the prior 13 months of the date of purchase, an affiliate of the issuer, which issuer
is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place of business in, the United States and is not an investment company
(or a company that would be an investment company but for certain exclusions under the 1940 Act), and which is in bankruptcy and
subject to reorganization (or where the issuance of securities is consummated pursuant to or in consummation of a bankruptcy or
reorganization plan or arrangement).



(4) Securities of an eligible
portfolio company (as defined above) purchase from any person in a transaction not involving a public offering, if there is no
ready market for such securities and if immediately prior to such purchase the BDC owns at least 60% of the outstanding equity
securities of such issuer, as determined on a fully diluted basis.



(5) Securities received in exchange
for or distributed on or with respect to securities described above, or pursuant to the conversion of warrants or rights relating
to such securities.



(6) Cash, cash equivalents,
U.S. government securities or high-quality debt securities maturing in one year or less from the time of investment.



(7) Office furniture and equipment,
interests in real estate and leasehold improvement and facilities maintained to conduct the business operations of the BDC, deferred
organization and operating expenses, and other non-investment assets necessary and appropriate to its operations as a BDC, including
notes of indebtedness of directors, officers, employees and general partners held by the BDC as payment for securities of such
company issued in connection with an executive compensation plan described in Section 57(j) of the 1940 Act.



In addition to the foregoing description of “qualifying
assets,” certain types of follow-on investments in issuers that no longer satisfy the definition of “eligible portfolio
company” may nonetheless be “qualifying assets.”



Significant Managerial Assistance or
Control



A BDC must have been organized and have its principal place
of business in the United States and must be operated for the purpose of making investments in the types of securities described
above. Nevertheless, to count portfolio securities as qualifying assets for the purpose of the foregoing 70% test, the BDC must
either control the issuer of the securities or offer to make available to the issuer of the securities (other than small and solvent
companies described above) significant managerial assistance; except that, where the BDC purchases such securities in conjunction
with one or more other persons acting together, one of the other persons in the group may make available such managerial assistance.
Making available significant managerial assistance means, among other things, any arrangement whereby the BDC, whether through
its directors, officers or employees, offers to provide, and, if accepted, does in fact so provide, significant guidance and counsel
concerning the management, operations or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company through monitoring of portfolio
company operations, selective participation in board and management meetings, consulting with and advising a portfolio company’s
officers or other organizational or financial guidance.



Temporary Investments



Pending investment in other types of qualifying assets, as described
above, our investments may consist of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities or high quality debt securities maturing
in one year or less from the time of investment, which we refer to, collectively, as temporary investments, so that at least 70%
of our assets are qualifying assets. We plan to invest in U.S. treasury bills or in repurchase agreements, provided that such agreements
are fully collateralized by cash or securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. A repurchase agreement involves the
purchase by an investor, such as us, of a specified security and the simultaneous agreement by the seller to repurchase it at an
agreed upon future date and at a price which is greater than the purchase price by an amount that reflects an agreed-upon interest
rate. There is no percentage restriction on the proportion of our assets that may be invested in such repurchase agreements. However,
if more than 25% of our total assets constitute repurchase agreements from a single counterparty, we would not meet the diversification
tests imposed on us by the Internal Revenue Code to qualify for tax treatment as a RIC for federal income tax purposes. Thus, we
do not intend to enter into repurchase agreements with a single counterparty in excess of this limit. We will monitor the creditworthiness
of the counterparties with which we enter into repurchase agreement transactions.



20







Capital Expenditures



We did not have and do not plan to have any material commitments
for capital expenditures in 2013 or 2014. Given our business model and status as a BDC, material investments in capital resources
is not required.



Critical Accounting Policies



Investment Valuation



Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized
gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis
of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during
the period, net of recoveries. Unrealized gains or losses primarily reflect the change in investment values, including the reversal
of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized.



Investments for which market quotations are readily available
are typically valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, we look at a number of factors to determine
if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. Debt and equity securities
that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
by our board of directors, based on, among other things, the input of our executive management, audit committee and independent
third-party valuation expert that may be engaged by management to assist in the valuation of our portfolio investments.



Realized Gains and Losses,
Interest and Dividend Income Recognition



Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated
using the specific investment method.



Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes
the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized
into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments
represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.



Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal
or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected
in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received
on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability.
Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment,
are likely to remain current. We may make exceptions to this if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process
of collection.



Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as
dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be
collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the
ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.



Further information on our critical accounting policies and
use of estimates can be found in our financial statements and notes thereto included in this report and in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2014.  There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies
and estimates from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we did not engage
in any off-balance sheet arrangements set forth in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures



We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide
reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and
that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A control system, no matter how well conceived
and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance the objectives of the control system are met.



As of June 30, 2014, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule
13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2014.



Changes in Internal Controls



There were no significant changes in our internal controls over
financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that materially affected, or were reasonably
likely to materially affect such controls.
