RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS June 30, 2022 (Continued) (Unaudited)  Notes to the Consolidated Schedule of Portfolio Investments (a)
At June 30, 2022, restricted securities represented 90% of the fair value of the investment portfolio.
Restricted securities are subject to one or more restrictions on resale and are not freely marketable. Type of investment for equity position is in the form of shares unless otherwise noted as units or interests, i.e., preferred shares, common
shares. (b)
The Date Acquired column indicates the date on which the Corporation first acquired an investment. (c)
Each equity percentage estimates the Corporations ownership interest in the applicable portfolio
investment. The estimated ownership is calculated based on the percent of outstanding voting securities held by the Corporation or the potential percentage of voting securities held by the Corporation upon exercise of warrants or conversion of
debentures, or other available data. If applicable, the symbol <1% indicates that the Corporation holds an equity interest of less than one percent. (d)
The Corporations investments are carried at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value and establishes guidelines for measuring fair value. At June 30, 2022, ASC 820 designates 90% of the
Corporations investments as Level 3 assets. Under the valuation policy of the Corporation, unrestricted publicly traded securities are valued at the average closing price for these securities for the last three trading days of
the reporting period. Restricted securities are subject to restrictions on resale and are valued at fair value as determined by our external investment advisor Rand Capital Management, LLC (RCM) and submitted to the Board of Directors
for approval. Fair value is considered to be the amount that the Corporation may reasonably expect to receive for portfolio securities when sold on the valuation date. Valuations as of any particular date, however, are not necessarily indicative of
amounts which may ultimately be realized as a result of future sales or other dispositions of securities and these favorable or unfavorable differences could be material. Among the factors considered in determining the fair value of restricted
securities are the financial condition and operating results, projected operations, and other analytical data relating to the investment. Also considered are the market prices for unrestricted securities of the same class (if applicable) and other
matters which may have an impact on the value of the portfolio company (see Note 3. Investments to the Consolidated Financial Statements). (e)
These investments are non-income producing. All other investments are
income producing. Non-income producing investments have not generated cash payments of interest or dividends including LLC tax-related distributions within the last
twelve months or are not expected to do so going forward. If a debt or a preferred equity investment fails to make its most recent payment, then the investment will also be classified as non-income producing. (f)
As of June 30, 2022, the total cost of investment securities was approximately $ 52.5 million. Net
unrealized appreciation was approximately $ 6.5 million, which was comprised of $14.4 million of unrealized appreciation of investment securities and ($7.9) million of unrealized depreciation of investment securities. At June 30,
2022, the aggregate gross unrealized gain for federal income tax purposes was $13.7 million and the aggregate gross unrealized loss for federal income tax purposes was ($7.7) million. The net unrealized gain for federal income tax purposes was
$6.0 million based on a tax cost of $52.8 million. (g)
All of the Corporations portfolio assets are pledged as collateral for purposes of securing the
Corporations senior secured revolving credit facility pursuant to a general security agreement, dated June 27, 2022, between the Corporation, the subsidiaries listed therein, and the Lender (as defined herein). (h)
Reduction in cost and value from previously reported balances reflects current principal repayment. (i)
Represents interest due (amounts over $50,000) from investments included as interest receivable on the
Corporations Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. (j)
Non-Control/Non-Affiliate
Investments are investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. (k)
Affiliate Investments are defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (1940 Act), as
those Non-Control investments in companies in which between 5% and 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation. (l)
Payment in kind (PIK) represents earned interest that is added to the cost basis of the investment and due at
maturity. The amount of PIK earned is included in the interest rate detailed in the Type of Investment column, unless it has been noted with a (+), in which case the PIK is in addition to the face amount of interest due on the security. (m)
Equity holdings are held in a wholly owned (100%) blocker corporation of Rand Capital Corporation
or Rand Capital Sub LLC, Inc. for federal income tax and Regulated Investment Company (RIC) compliance. (n)
Publicly traded company. (o)
Control Investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in companies in which more than 25% of the
voting securities are owned by the Corporation or where greater than 50% of the board representation is maintained. None at June 30, 2022. (p)
Subsequent to June 30, 2022, ACV Auctions (ACVA) public market share price had a trading range on
Nasdaq of $6.35 to $7.64 for the period of July 1, 2022 to August 1, 2022. The Corporations value per share on June 30, 2022 of $6.54 per share.  10

RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS December 31, 2021 (Continued)  Notes to the Consolidated Schedule of Portfolio Investments (a) At December 31, 2021, restricted securities represented 78% of the fair value of the investment portfolio. Restricted securities are subject to one or
more restrictions on resale and are not freely marketable. Type of investment for equity position is in the form of shares unless otherwise noted as units or interests, i.e., preferred shares, common shares. (b) The Date Acquired column indicates the date on which the Corporation first acquired an investment. (c) Each equity percentage estimates the Corporations ownership interest in the applicable portfolio investment. The estimated ownership is calculated
based on the percent of outstanding voting securities held by the Corporation or the potential percentage of voting securities held by the Corporation upon exercise of warrants or conversion of debentures, or other available data. If applicable, the
symbol <1% indicates that the Corporation holds an equity interest of less than one percent. (d) The Corporations investments are
carried at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value and establishes guidelines for measuring
fair value. At December 31, 2021, ASC 820 designates 78% of the Corporations investments as Level 3 assets. Under the valuation policy of the Corporation, unrestricted publicly traded securities are valued at the average
closing price for these securities for the last three trading days of the reporting period. Restricted securities are subject to restrictions on resale and are valued at fair value as determined by our external investment advisor Rand Capital
Management, LLC (RCM) and approved by the Board of Directors. Fair value is considered to be the amount that the Corporation may reasonably expect to receive for portfolio securities when sold on the valuation date. Valuations as of any
particular date, however, are not necessarily indicative of amounts which may ultimately be realized as a result of future sales or other dispositions of securities and these favorable or unfavorable differences could be material. Among the factors
considered in determining the fair value of restricted securities are the financial condition and operating results, projected operations, and other analytical data relating to the investment. Also considered are the market prices for unrestricted
securities of the same class (if applicable) and other matters which may have an impact on the value of the portfolio company (see Note 3. Investments to the Consolidated Financial Statements). (e) These investments are non-income producing. All other investments are income producing. Non-income producing investments have not generated cash payments of interest or dividends including LLC tax-related distributions within the last twelve months or are not
expected to do so going forward. If a debt or a preferred equity investment fails to make its most recent payment, then the investment will also be classified as non-income producing. (f) As of December 31, 2021, the total cost of investment securities was approximately $52.4 million. Net unrealized appreciation was approximately
$11.7 million, which was comprised of $21.2 million of unrealized appreciation of investment securities and ($9.5) million of unrealized depreciation of investment securities. At December 31, 2021, the aggregate gross unrealized gain
for federal income tax purposes was $20.6 million and the aggregate gross unrealized loss for federal income tax purposes was ($9.6) million. The net unrealized gain for federal income tax purposes was $11.0 million based on a tax cost of
$53.0 million. (g) Rand Capital investment held by Rand Capital Sub LLC. (h) Reduction in cost and value from previously reported balances reflects current principal repayment. (i) Represents interest due (amounts over $50,000) from investments included as interest receivable on the Corporations Consolidated Statements of
Financial Position. (j) Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments are
investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. (k) Affiliate Investments are defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (1940 Act), as those Non-Control investments in companies in which between 5% and 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation. (l) Payment in kind (PIK) represents earned interest that is added to the cost basis of the investment and due at maturity. The amount of PIK earned is
included in the interest rate detailed in the Type of Investment column, unless it has been noted with a (+), in which case the PIK is in addition to the face amount of interest due on the security. (m) Equity holdings are held in a wholly owned (100%) blocker corporation of Rand Capital Corporation or Rand Capital Sub LLC for federal income
tax and Regulated Investment Company (RIC) compliance. (n) Publicly traded company. (o) Control Investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in companies in which more than 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation
or where greater than 50% of the board representation is maintained (None at December 31, 2021). (p) Subsequent to December 31, 2021, ACV
Auctions (ACVA) public market share price had a trading range on NASDAQ of $10.30 to $19.73 for the period of January 1st to February 28th, 2022. The Corporations value per share at
December 31, 2021 was $18.81.  18

Rand Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) Note 1. ORGANIZATION Rand Capital Corporation (Rand, we, us and our) was incorporated under the laws of New
York in February 1969. We completed our initial public offering in 1971 and operated as an internally managed, closed end, diversified, management investment company from that time until November 2019. In November 2019, Rand completed a stock sale transaction (the Closing) with East Asset Management (East). The
transaction consisted of a $25 million investment in Rand by East, in the form of cash and contributed portfolio assets, in exchange for approximately 8.3 million shares of Rand common stock. East owns approximately 64% of Rand
Capitals outstanding common stock at June 30, 2022. Concurrent with the Closing, Rands management and staff became employees of Rand Capital Management, LLC (RCM), a registered investment adviser that has been retained
by Rand as its external investment adviser and administrator (the Closing and the retention of RCM as our investment adviser and administrator are collectively referred to herein as the Transaction). In connection with a change of
control of RCM (the Adviser Change of Control), Rands shareholders approved a new investment advisory and management agreement (the Investment Management Agreement) with RCM at a special meeting of shareholders held on
December 16, 2020 (the Special Meeting). The terms of the Investment Management Agreement are identical to those contained in the prior investment management agreement that was in effect prior to the Adviser Change of Control (the
Prior Investment Management Agreement) with RCM continuing to provide investment advisory and management services to Rand. Following approval by Rands shareholders at the Special Meeting, Rand, on December 31, 2020, entered
into the Investment Management Agreement and a new administration agreement (the Administration Agreement) with RCM and terminated the prior administration agreement (the Prior Administration Agreement). The terms of the
Administration Agreement are identical to those contained in the Prior Administration Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, Rand pays RCM a base management fee and may pay an incentive fee, if specified benchmarks
are met. In connection with the Closing, we also entered into a shareholder agreement by and between Rand and East (the Shareholder
Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Shareholder Agreement, East has the right to designate two or three persons, depending upon the size of the Board of Directors of Rand (the Board), for nomination for election to the Board.
East has the right to designate (i) up to two persons if the size of the Board is composed of fewer than seven directors or (ii) up to three persons if the size of the Board is composed of seven or more directors. Easts right to
designate persons for nomination for election to the Board under the Shareholder Agreement is the exclusive means by which East may designate or nominate persons for election to the Board. The Board currently consists of five directors, and
Easts designees are Adam S. Gusky and Benjamin E. Godley. After the completion of the Transaction, we are an externally managed, closed-end, diversified management investment company. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940
Act). As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements specified in the 1940 Act. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in qualifying assets and provide managerial
assistance to the portfolio companies in which we invest. See Item 1. BusinessRegulations, Business Development Company Regulations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2021. Prior to 2021, we made the majority of our investments through our wholly owned subsidiary, Rand Capital SBIC,
Inc. (Rand SBIC), which operated as a small business investment company (SBIC) and was licensed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) from 2002 until December 2021. Until December 2021, Rand SBIC
also operated as a BDC. Rand SBICs board of directors was comprised of the same directors that made up the Board of Rand, a majority of whom are not interested persons as defined by the 1940 Act.  22

##### Table of Contents

In November 2021, Rand SBIC repaid, in full, all of its outstanding SBA-guaranteed debentures and surrendered its SBIC license. In connection with the surrender of its SBIC license, Rand SBIC changed its name to Rand Capital Sub, Inc. (Rand Sub), withdrew its election to
be regulated as a BDC, and merged with and into Rand Capital Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Rand. In connection with the completion of the Transaction, we adopted an investment strategy focused on higher yielding debt investments and
elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (RIC) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as of January 1, 2020 on our U.S. Federal tax return for the 2020 tax year. As required for the RIC election, we paid a special
dividend to shareholders to distribute all of our accumulated earnings and profits since inception to 2019. The Board declared the
following quarterly cash dividend during the six months ended June 30, 2022:  Quarter

June 15, 2022 In order to qualify to make the RIC election, Rand placed several of its equity investments in newly formed
holding companies that facilitate a tax structure that is advantageous to the RIC election. Rand has the following wholly owned blocker companies in place at June 30, 2022: Rand Somerset Holdings Corp., Rand Carolina Skiff Holdings Corp., Rand
DSD Holdings Corp., Rand Filterworks Holdings Corp., Rand ITA Holdings Corp., and Rand BMP Swanson Holdings Corp. (the Blocker Corps). These subsidiaries are consolidated using United States generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) for financial reporting purposes. On October 7, 2020, Rand, RCM and certain of their affiliates received
exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to permit Rand to co-invest in portfolio companies with certain other funds, including other BDCs and registered investment
companies, managed by RCM and certain of its affiliates in a manner consistent with Rands investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements, subject to compliance with certain conditions
(the Order). Pursuant to the Order, Rand is generally permitted to co-invest with affiliated funds if a required majority (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of
Rands independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are
reasonable and fair to Rand and its shareholders and do not involve overreaching in respect to Rand or its shareholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of Rands shareholders and
is consistent with Rands investment objective and strategies. On March 29, 2021, the SEC granted approval for a new exemptive relief order (the New Order) that supersedes the Order and permits the Corporation to co-invest with affiliates of RCM and Callodine Group, LLC (Callodine) in connection with the completion of the Adviser Change of Control. Callodine holds a controlling interest in RCM. The accompanying financial statements describe the operations of Rand and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Rand Sub and the Blocker Corps,
(collectively, the Corporation). Our corporate office is located in Buffalo, NY and our website address is
www.randcapital.com. We make available on our website our annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC). Our shares are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol RAND.  23

Note 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation It is our opinion that the accompanying consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of
a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP of the consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and statement of changes in net assets for the interim periods presented. Certain
information and note disclosures normally included in audited annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted; however, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented
herein not misleading. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Information contained in this filing should also be reviewed in conjunction with our related filings with the SEC prior to the date of this report. Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rand and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Fair Value of Financial
Instruments  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statement of financial position of cash, interest receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of
these financial instruments. Investment Classification In accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, the
Corporation classifies its investments by level of control. Under the 1940 Act, Control Investments are investments in companies that the Corporation is deemed to Control because it owns more than 25% of the voting securities
of the company or has greater than 50% representation on the companys board. Affiliate Investments are companies in which the Corporation owns between 5% and 25% of the voting securities. Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments are those companies that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. Investments - Investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by RCM and approved by our Board. The Corporation
invests in loan instruments, debt instruments, and equity instruments. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and
circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistent valuation process. The Corporation analyzes and values each investment quarterly, and records unrealized depreciation for an investment that it believes has become impaired,
including where collection of a loan or debt security or realization of the recorded value of an equity security is doubtful. Conversely, the Corporation will record unrealized appreciation if it believes that an underlying portfolio company has
appreciated in value and, therefore, its equity securities have also appreciated in value. These estimated fair values may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed and these differences could be
material if RCMs assumptions and judgments differ from results of actual liquidation events. Under the valuation policy of the Corporation, unrestricted publicly traded securities are valued at the average closing price for these securities
for the last three trading days of the reporting period. Qualifying Assets- More than 70% of the Corporations
investments were made in qualifying privately held small business enterprises, that were not investment companies, are principally based in the United States, and represent qualifying assets as defined by Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Revenue Recognition - Interest Income - Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis except where the
investment is in default or otherwise presumed to be in doubt. In such cases, interest is recognized at the time of receipt. A reserve for possible losses on interest receivable is maintained when appropriate.  24

##### Table of Contents

The Corporation holds debt securities in its investment portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (PIK) interest provisions. PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in each debt agreement, is added to the principal balance of
the debt and is recorded as interest income. Thus, the actual collection of this interest may be deferred until the time of debt principal repayment. Revenue Recognition - Dividend Income The Corporation may receive cash distributions from portfolio companies that are
limited liability companies or corporations, and these distributions are classified as dividend income on the consolidated statement of operations. Dividend income is recognized on an accrual basis when it can be reasonably estimated. The Corporation may hold preferred equity securities that contain cumulative dividend provisions. Cumulative dividends are recorded as
dividend income, if declared and deemed collectible, and any dividends in arrears are recognized into income and added to the balance of the preferred equity investment. The actual collection of these dividends in arrears may be deferred until such
time as the preferred equity is redeemed. Revenue Recognition - Fee Income- Consists of the revenue associated with the
amortization of financing fees charged to the portfolio companies upon successful closing of financings and income associated with portfolio company board attendance fees. Realized Gain or Loss and Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation of Investments -Amounts reported as realized gains and losses
are measured by the difference between the proceeds from the sale or exchange and the cost basis of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses recorded in prior periods. The cost of securities that have, in managements
judgment, become worthless are written off and reported as realized losses when appropriate. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the difference between the fair value of the investments and the cost basis of the investments. Original Issue Discount  Investments may include original issue discount or OID income. This occurs when the
Corporation purchases a warrant and a note from a portfolio company simultaneously, which requires an allocation of a portion of the purchase price to the warrant and reduces the note or debt instrument by an equal amount in the form of a note
discount or OID. Net Assets per Share - Net assets per share are based on the number of shares of common stock outstanding.
There are no common stock equivalents outstanding. Supplemental Cash Flow Information - Income taxes (refunded) paid during
the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were ($149,185) and $27,902, respectively, including $10,116 of interest income received from the Internal Revenue Service refund related to the 2018 net operating loss carryback. Interest paid during
the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $0 and $187,985, respectively. The Corporation converted $290,591 and $116,418 of interest receivable into investments during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. Stockholders Equity (Net Assets) -At June 30, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, there were 500,000 shares of $10.00 par value preferred stock authorized and unissued. On April 21, 2022,
the Board approved a share repurchase plan which authorizes the Corporation to repurchase shares of the Corporations outstanding common stock with an aggregate cost of up to $1,500,000 at prices per share of common stock no greater than the
then current net asset value. This share repurchase authorization is in effect through April 21, 2023. This share repurchase plan replaces the share repurchase authorization that was previously approved by the Board in April 2021. No shares of
common stock were repurchased by the Corporation during the six months ended June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2021.  25

##### Table of Contents

Income Taxes The Corporation elected to be treated, for income tax
purposes, as a RIC for the 2022 and 2021 tax years under Subchapter M of the Code. As a result, the Corporation did not pay corporate-level federal income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that the Corporation distributed to its
shareholders as dividends. The Corporation must distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income each tax year as dividends to its shareholders to maintain its RIC status. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has
been made in the financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Distributions from net
investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal tax regulations, which may differ from amounts determined in accordance with GAAP and those differences could be material. These book-to-tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. Reclassifications due to permanent book-tax differences, including
the offset of net operating losses against short-term gains and nondeductible meals and entertainment, have no impact on net assets. The
Corporation reviews the tax positions it has taken to determine if they meet a more likely than not threshold for the benefit of the tax position to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. A tax position that fails to
meet the more likely than not recognition threshold will result in either a reduction of a current or deferred tax asset or receivable, or the recording of a current or deferred tax liability. There were no uncertain tax positions recorded at
June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Corporation is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal
Revenue Service for the years ended December 31, 2018 through 2021. In general, the Corporations state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2018 through 2021. It is the Corporations policy to include interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities in income tax expense on the
Consolidated Statement of Operations. There were no amounts recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and there was $2,627 recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Concentration of Credit and Market Risk  The Corporations financial instruments potentially subject it to concentrations of credit
risk. Cash is invested with banks in amounts which, at times, exceed insurable limits. The Corporation does not anticipate non-performance by such banks. The following are the concentrations of the top five portfolio company values compared to the fair value of the Corporations total

Note 3. INVESTMENTS The Corporations investments are carried at fair value in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Loan investments are defined as traditional loan financings with no equity features. Debt investments are defined as debt financings that
include one or more equity features such as conversion rights, stock purchase warrants, and/or stock purchase options. A financing may also be categorized as a debt financing if it is accompanied by the direct purchase of an equity interest in the
portfolio company. The Corporation uses several approaches to determine the fair value of an investment. The main approaches are:  

Loan and debt securities are valued at cost when it is representative of the fair value of the investment
or sufficient assets or liquidation proceeds are expected to exist from a sale of a portfolio company at its estimated fair value. However, they may be valued at an amount other than cost given the carrying interest rate versus the related inherent
portfolio risk of the investment. A loan or debt instrument may be reduced in value if it is judged to be of poor quality, collection is in doubt or insufficient liquidation proceeds exist.  

Equity securities may be valued using the asset approach, market approach or
income approach. The asset approach involves estimating the liquidation value of the portfolio companys assets. To the extent the value exceeds the remaining principal amount of the debt or loan securities of the portfolio
company, the fair value of such securities is generally estimated to be their cost. However, where value is less than the remaining principal amount of the loan and debt securities, the Corporation may discount the value of an equity security.
The market approach uses observable prices and other relevant information generated by similar market transactions. It may include the use of market multiples derived from a set of comparables to assist in pricing the investment. Additionally, the
Corporation adjusts valuations if a subsequent significant equity financing has occurred that includes a meaningful portion of the financing by a sophisticated, unrelated new investor. The income approach employs a cash flow and discounting
methodology to value an investment. ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, used in the Corporations valuation at the measurement
date. Under the valuation policy, the Corporation values unrestricted publicly traded companies, categorized as Level 1 investments, at the average closing price for the last three trading days of the reporting period. Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or
liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3: Unobservable and
significant inputs to determining the fair value. Financial assets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the
inputs used to measure their fair value. Any changes in estimated fair value are recorded in the statement of operations.  27

##### Table of Contents

At June 30, 2022, 10% of the Corporations investments were Level 1
investments and 90% were Level 3 investments. At December 31, 2021, 22% of the Corporations investments were Level 1 investments and 78% were Level 3 investments. There were no Level 2 investments at June 30, 2022
or December 31, 2021. In the valuation process, the Corporation values restricted securities categorized as Level 3
investments, using information from these portfolio companies, which may include:  

Audited and unaudited statements of operations, balance sheets and operating budgets;  

Current and projected financial, operational and technological developments of the portfolio company;  

Current and projected ability of the portfolio company to service its debt obligations;  

The current capital structure of the business and the seniority of the various classes of equity if a deemed
liquidation event were to occur;  

Pending debt or capital restructuring of the portfolio company;  

Current information regarding any offers to purchase the investment, or recent fundraising transactions;  

Current ability of the portfolio company to raise additional financing if needed;  

Changes in the economic environment which may have a material impact on the operating results of the portfolio
company;  

Internal circumstances and events that may have an impact (both positive and negative) on the operating
performance of the portfolio company;  

Qualitative assessment of key management;  

Contractual rights, obligations or restrictions associated with the investment; and  

Other factors deemed relevant to assess valuation. The valuation may be reduced if a portfolio companys performance and potential have deteriorated significantly. If the factors that led
to a reduction in valuation are overcome, the valuation may be readjusted. Equity Securities Equity securities may include preferred stock, common stock, warrants and limited liability company membership interests. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporations equity investments are earnings before
interest, tax and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and revenue multiples, where applicable, the financial and operational performance of the business, and the debt and senior equity preferences that may exist in a deemed liquidation event.
Standard industry multiples may be used when available; however, the Corporations portfolio companies are typically small and in early stages of development and these industry standards may be adjusted to more closely match the specific
financial and operational performance of the portfolio company. Due to the nature of certain investments, fair value measurements may be based on other criteria, which may include third party appraisals. Significant changes in any of these
unobservable inputs may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value estimate. Another key factor used in valuing equity
investments is a significant recent arms-length equity transaction entered into by the portfolio company with a sophisticated, non-strategic, unrelated, new investor. The terms of these equity transactions may
not be identical to the equity transactions between the portfolio company and the Corporation, and the impact of the difference in transaction terms on the market value of the portfolio company may be difficult or impossible to quantify. When appropriate the Black-Scholes pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of warrants for accounting purposes. This model requires
the use of highly subjective inputs including expected volatility and expected life, in addition to variables for the valuation of minority equity positions in small private and early stage companies. Significant changes in any of these unobservable
inputs may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value estimate.  28

##### Table of Contents

For investments made within the last year, the Corporation generally relies on the cost
basis, which is deemed to represent the fair value, unless other fair value inputs are identified causing the Corporation to depart from this basis. Loan and Debt Securities The significant
unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporations loan and debt securities are the financial and operational performance of the portfolio company, similar debt with similar terms with other portfolio companies, as well
as the market acceptance for the portfolio companys products or services. These inputs will likely provide an indicator as to the probability of principal recovery of the investment. The Corporations loan and debt investments are often
junior secured or unsecured securities. Fair value may also be determined based on other criteria where appropriate. Significant changes to the unobservable inputs may result in a change in fair value. For recent investments, the Corporation
generally relies on the cost basis, which is deemed to represent the fair value, unless other fair value inputs are identified causing the Corporation to depart from this basis. The following table provides a summary of the significant unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value of the Corporations

181,457 Note 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Corporation had no commitments at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. Note 6. SENIOR SECURED REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY On June 27, 2022, the Corporation entered into a credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) with M&T Bank, as lender (the
Lender), which provides the Corporation with a senior secured revolving credit facility in a principal amount not to exceed $25.0 million (the Credit Facility). The amount the Corporation can borrow, at any given time,
under the Credit Facility is tied to a borrowing base, which is measured as (i) 75% of the aggregate sum of the fair market values of the publicly traded equity securities held (other than shares of ACV Auctions) plus (ii) the least of (a) 75%
of the fair market value of the shares of ACV Auctions held, (b) $6.25 million and (c) 25% of the aggregate borrowing base availability for the Credit Facility at any date of determination plus (iii) 50% of the aggregate sum of the fair market
values of eligible private loans held that meet specified criteria plus (iv) the lesser of (a) 50% of the aggregate sum of the fair market values of unsecured private loans held that meet specified criteria and (b) $1.25 million minus
(v) such reserves as the Lender may establish from time to time in its sole discretion. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of June 27, 2027. The Corporations borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate determined as a rate per annum equal to 3.50
percentage points above the greater of (i) the applicable daily simple secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) and (ii) 0.25%. In addition, under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Corporation has also agreed to pay the Lender an unused
commitment fee on a quarterly basis, computed as 0.30% multiplied by the average daily Unused Commitment Fee Base (which is defined as the difference between (i) $25.0 million and (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the
Corporations outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility) for the preceding quarter. The Credit Agreement contains
representations and warranties and affirmative, negative and financial covenants usual and customary for agreements of this type, including among others covenants that prohibit, subject to certain specified exceptions, the Corporations ability
to merge or consolidate with other companies, sell any material part of the Corporations assets, incur other indebtedness, incur liens on the Corporations assets, make investments or loans to third parties other than permitted
investments and permitted loans, and declare any distribution or dividend other than certain permitted distributions. The Credit Agreement includes the following financial covenants: (i) a tangible net worth covenant that requires the
Corporation to maintain a Tangible Net Worth (defined in the Credit Agreement as the Corporations aggregate assets, excluding intangible assets, less all liabilities) of not less than $50.0 million, which is measured quarterly at the end
of each fiscal quarter, (ii) an asset coverage ratio covenant that requires the Corporation to maintain an Asset  32

##### Table of Contents

Coverage Ratio (defined in the Credit Agreement as the ratio of the fair market value of all of the Corporations assets to the sum of all of the Corporations obligations for borrowed
money plus all capital lease obligations) of not less than 3:00:1:00, which is measured quarterly at the end of each fiscal quarter and (iii) an interest coverage ratio covenant that requires the Corporation to maintain an Interest Coverage
Ratio (defined in the Credit Agreement as the ratio of Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to Interest Expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement)) of not less than 2:50:1:00, which is measured quarterly on a trailing twelve-months
basis. Events of default under the Credit Agreement which permit the Lender to exercise its remedies, including acceleration of the
principal and interest on the Credit Facility, include, among others: (i) default in the payment of principal or interest on the Credit Facility, (ii) default by the Corporation on any other obligation, condition, covenant or other
provision under the Credit Agreement and related documents, (iii) failure by the Corporation to pay any material indebtedness or obligation owing to any third party or affiliate, or the failure by the Corporation to perform any agreement with
any third party or affiliate that would have a material adverse effect on the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, (iv) the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporations assets to a third party, (v) various
bankruptcy and insolvency events, and (vi) any material adverse change in the Corporations and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or their business, assets, operations, management, ownership, affairs, condition (financial or otherwise)
or the Lenders collateral that the Lender reasonably determines will have a material adverse effect on the Lenders collateral, the Corporation and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or their business, assets, operation or condition
(financial or otherwise) or on the Corporations ability to repay its debts. In connection with entry into the Credit Facility, the
Corporation and each of its subsidiaries that guaranty the Credit Facility entered into a general security agreement, dated June 27, 2022, with the Lender (the Security Agreement). The Security Agreement secures all of the
Corporations obligations to the Lender, including, without limitation, principal and interest on the Credit Facility and any fees and charges. The security interest granted under the Security Agreement covers all of the Corporations
personal property including, among other things, all accounts, chattel paper, investment property, deposit accounts, general intangibles, inventory, and all of the fixtures. The Security Agreement contains various representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements customary in security agreements and various events of default with remedies under the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Security Agreement. Events of default under the Security Agreement, which permit the Lender to
exercise its various remedies, are similar to those contained in the Credit Agreement. There was no outstanding balance drawn on the
Credit Facility at June 30, 2022. There was a closing fee of $125,000, related to the closing of this Credit Facility, and it is recorded in Other Assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position at June 30, 2022. This closing
fee will be amortized over the life of the Credit Facility. Note 7. CHANGES IN STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY (NET ASSETS) The following schedule analyzes the changes in stockholders equity (net assets) section of the Consolidated Statement of Financial

58,119,821 Note 8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Investment Management Agreement Effective
with the Closing, RCM, a registered investment adviser, was retained by the Corporation as its external investment adviser and administrator. Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Corporation pays RCM, as compensation for the investment
advisory and management services, fees consisting of two components: (i) the Base Management Fee and (ii) the Incentive Fee. The Base Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Corporations total assets (other than cash but
including assets purchased with borrowed funds). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Base Management Fee was $230,767 and $471,042, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Base Management Fee
was $212,907 and $388,516, respectively. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Corporation had $230,781 and $238,862 payable, respectively, for the Base Management Fees on its Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The Incentive Fee is comprised of two parts: (1) the Income Based Fee and (2) the Capital Gains
Fee. The Income Based Fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (as defined in the agreement) for the immediately preceding
calendar quarter, subject to a hurdle rate of 1.75% per quarter (7% annualized) and is payable promptly following the filing of the Corporations financial statements for such quarter. The Corporation pays RCM an Incentive Fee with respect to its Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income
in each calendar quarter as follows:  (i)
no Income Based Fee in any quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee Net
Investment Income for such quarter does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.00% annualized);  (ii)
100% of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for any calendar
quarter with respect to that portion of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for such calendar quarter, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.00% annualized) but is less than 2.1875% (8.75%
annualized); and  34

(iii)
20% of the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for
any calendar quarter with respect to that portion of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for such calendar quarter, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% (8.75% annualized). The Income Based Fee paid to RCM for any calendar quarter shall not be in excess of the Incentive Fee Cap. The Incentive Fee Cap
for any quarter is an amount equal to (1) 20.0% of the Cumulative Net Return (as defined below) during the relevant Income Based Fee Calculation Period (as defined below) minus (2) the aggregate Income Based Fee that was paid in respect of the
calendar quarters included in the relevant Income Based Fee Calculation Period. For purposes of the calculation of the Income Based Fee,
Income Based Fee Calculation Period is defined as, with reference to a calendar quarter, the period of time consisting of such calendar quarter and the additional quarters that comprise the lesser of (1) the number of quarters
immediately preceding such calendar quarter that began more than two years after November 8, 2019 or (2) the eleven calendar quarters immediately preceding such calendar quarter. For purposes of the calculation of the Income Based Fee, Cumulative Net Return is defined as (1) the aggregate net investment
income in respect of the relevant Income Based Fee Calculation Period minus (2) any Net Capital Loss, if any, in respect of the relevant Income Based Fee Calculation Period. If, in any quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value,
the Corporation pays no Income Based Fee to RCM for such quarter. If, in any quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter is a positive value but is less than the Income Based Fee that is payable to RCM for such quarter (before giving effect to
the Incentive Fee Cap) calculated as described above, the Corporation pays an Income Based Fee to RCM equal to the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter. If, in any quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter is equal to or greater than the Income
Based Fee that is payable to RCM for such quarter (before giving effect to the Incentive Fee Cap) calculated as described above, we pay an Income Based Fee to the Adviser equal to the Income Based Fee calculated as described above for such quarter
without regard to the Incentive Fee Cap. For purposes of the calculation of the Income Based Fee, Net Capital Loss, in
respect of a particular period, means the difference, if positive, between (1) aggregate capital losses, whether realized or unrealized, in such period and (2) aggregate capital gains, whether realized or unrealized, in such period. Any Income Based Fee otherwise payable under the Investment Management Agreement with respect to Accrued Unpaid Income (such fees being the
Accrued Unpaid Income Based Fees) shall be deferred, on a security by security basis, and shall become payable to RCM only if, as, when and to the extent cash is received by us in respect of any Accrued Unpaid Income. Any Accrued Unpaid
Income that is subsequently reversed by us in connection with a write-down, write-off, impairment or similar treatment of the investment giving rise to such Accrued Unpaid Income will, in the applicable period
of reversal, (1) reduce Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income and (2) reduce the amount of Accrued Unpaid Income Based Fees. Subsequent payments of Accrued Unpaid Income Based Fees deferred
pursuant to this paragraph shall not reduce the amounts otherwise payable for any quarter as an Income Based Fee. For both the six months
ended June 30, 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no Income Based Fees earned under the Investment Management Agreement. The second part of the Incentive Fee is the Capital Gains Fee. This fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each
calendar year. Under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, the Capital Gains Fee is calculated at the end of each applicable year by subtracting (1) the sum of the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate
unrealized capital depreciation from (2) the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains, in each case calculated from November 8, 2019. If this amount is positive at the end of any calendar year, then the Capital Gains Fee for such year
is equal to 20.0% of such amount, less  35

##### Table of Contents

the cumulative aggregate amount of Capital Gains Fees paid in all prior years. If such amount is negative, then there is no Capital Gains Fee payable for that calendar year. If the Investment
Management Agreement is terminated as of a date that is not a calendar year end, the termination date shall be treated as though it were a calendar year end for purposes of calculating and paying the Capital Gains Fee. For purposes of the Capital Gains Fee:  

The cumulative aggregate realized capital gains are calculated as the sum of the differences, if positive,
between (a) the net sales price of each investment in the Corporations portfolio when sold minus (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.  

The cumulative aggregate realized capital losses are calculated as the sum of the amounts by which (a) the
net sales price of each investment in the portfolio when sold is less than (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.  

The aggregate unrealized capital depreciation is calculated as the sum of the amount, if negative, between
(a) the valuation of each investment in the portfolio as of the applicable Capital Gains Fee calculation date minus (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. In determining whether a capital gains incentive fee accrual is necessary, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires a
company to consider the amount of cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation that such company has with respect to its investments, as a capital gains incentive fee would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized,
despite the fact that such unrealized capital appreciation is not used by the Corporation in determining the amount of Capital Gains Fee actually payable under the terms of the RCM Investment Management Agreement. A capital gains incentive fee
accrual under GAAP is calculated using the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains and losses and the aggregate net change in unrealized capital appreciation/depreciation at the close of the period. If the calculated amount is positive, GAAP
requires the Corporation to record a capital gains incentive fee accrual equal to 20% of this cumulative amount, less the aggregate amount of actual capital gains incentive fees paid, or capital gains incentive fees accrued under GAAP, for all prior
periods. There can be no guarantee that the Corporation will realize the unrealized capital appreciation, upon which this accrual has been calculated, in the future. As of June 30, 2022, there was no Capital Gains Fee currently payable under the terms of the RCM Investment Management Agreement, and the
final calculations are determined annually, and subject to change based on subsequent realized gains, losses or unrealized losses during the remainder of 2022. At December 31, 2021, there was $652,240 of Capital Gains Fee payable. The Capital
Gains Fee earned of $652,240 was included in the Due to investment adviser line on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and the $3,547,760 cumulative accrued capital gains incentive fee was recorded in the line item
Capital gains incentive fees on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position at December 31, 2021. In accordance
with GAAP, the Corporation is required to accrue a capital gains incentive fee on all realized and unrealized gains and losses, resulting in an accrual of $2,645,000 at June 30, 2022, which represents the fee that would be due based on net
portfolio appreciation. The $2,645,000 accrued capital gains incentive fee is recorded in the line item Capital gains incentive fees on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position at June 30, 2022. At December 31, 2021,
there was an accrual of $4,200,000 for the capital gains incentive fee, which represented both the capital gains fee payable to RCM of $652,240 and $3,547,760 that would be due based on net portfolio appreciation at December 31, 2021. The
$652,240 was paid to RCM during the six months ended June 30, 2022.  36

The Corporations interim period results could fluctuate as a result of a number of
factors; therefore results for any interim period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance for the full year or in future periods. Note 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Subsequent to
the quarter end, on July 28, 2022, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share. The cash dividend will be paid on or about September 15, 2022 to shareholders of record as of September 1, 2022.  38

Item 2.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. Historical results and percentage relationships among any amounts in the consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of
trends in operating results for any future periods. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS Statements included in this Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this
report that do not relate to present or historical conditions are forward-looking statements within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Additional oral or written forward-looking statements may be made by us from time to time, and forward-looking statements may be included in documents that are filed with the SEC. Forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties that could cause our results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements relating to our plans, strategies,
objectives, expectations and intentions, including statements related to our investment strategies and our intention to co-invest with certain of our affiliates, the impact of
COVID-19 on our portfolio companies; the impact of our election as a RIC for U.S. federal tax purposes on payment of corporate level U.S. federal income taxes by Rand; statements regarding our liquidity and
financial resources; statements regarding any Capital Gains Fee that may be due to RCM upon a hypothetical liquidation of our portfolio and the amount of the Capital Gains Fee that may be payable for 2022; and statements regarding our compliance
with the RIC requirements as of June 30, 2022, future dividend payments, and are intended to be made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as believes,
forecasts, intends, possible, expects, estimates, anticipates, or plans and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Among the
important factors on which such statements are based are assumptions concerning the scope of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its specific impact on our portfolio companies, the state of the United
States economy and the local markets in which our portfolio companies operate, the state of the securities markets in which the securities of our portfolio companies could be traded, liquidity within the United States financial markets, and
inflation. Forward-looking statements are also subject to the risks and uncertainties described under the caption Risk Factors contained in Part II, Item 1A of this report and in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There may be other factors not identified that affect
the accuracy of our forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date when it is made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and we cannot
predict all of them. Overview We
are an externally managed investment company that lends to and invests in lower middle market companies. Our investment objective is to generate current income and when also possible, capital appreciation, by targeting investment opportunities with
favorable risk-adjusted returns. Our investment activities are managed by our investment adviser, Rand Capital Management, LLC (RCM). We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
1940 Act). As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements specified in the 1940 Act.  39

In November 2019, Rand completed a stock sale transaction (the Transaction) with
East. The Transaction consisted of a $25 million investment in Rand by East, in exchange for approximately 8.3 million shares of Rand common stock. Concurrent with the closing of the Transaction, on November 8, 2019, Rand entered into
an investment advisory and management agreement (the Prior Investment Management Agreement) and an administration agreement (the Prior Administration Agreement) with RCM. In connection with retaining RCM as our investment
adviser and administrator, Rands management and staff became employees of RCM. In December 2020, Rands shareholders approved
a new investment advisory and management agreement (the Investment Management Agreement) with RCM at a special meeting of shareholders (the Special Meeting). The approval was required because Callodine Group, LLC
(Callodine) planned to acquire a controlling interest in RCM, which was, at that time, majority owned by East (the Adviser Change in Control). The terms of the Investment Management Agreement are identical to those contained
in the Prior Investment Management Agreement, with RCM continuing to provide investment advisory and management services to Rand following the Adviser Change in Control. Following approval by Rands shareholders at the Special Meeting, Rand, on
December 31, 2020, entered into the Investment Management Agreement and a new administration agreement (the Administration Agreement) with RCM and terminated the Prior Administration Agreement. The terms of the Administration
Agreement are identical to those contained in the Prior Administration Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Management
Agreement, Rand pays RCM a base management fee and may pay an incentive fee if specified benchmarks are met. We elected U.S federal tax
treatment as a regulated investment company (RIC) as of January 1, 2020, under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, on our timely filed U.S. Federal tax return for the 2020 tax year. To maintain our
qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements. As of June 30, 2022, we believe we were in compliance with the RIC requirements. As a RIC, we generally will not be
subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that we timely distribute to our shareholders as dividends. In connection with our RIC election, we paid a special dividend of $23.7 million, or approximately $1.62 per share, on the
Corporations common stock, par value $0.10 per shares (the Common Stock), in cash and stock to our shareholders on May 11, 2020, which distributed all of our accumulated earnings and profits since our inception through 2019.
The total amount of cash distributed to all shareholders, as part of the special dividend, was limited to $4.8 million, or 20% of the total special dividend that was paid. The remaining 80% of the special dividend was paid using approximately
8.6 million shares of the Corporations common stock. In addition, to maintain our RIC status, we must distribute annually to
our shareholders at least 90% of our ordinary net income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. Accordingly, our Board of Directors has initiated a quarterly cash dividend. The Board of Directors declared the following quarterly cash dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2022:  Quarter

June 15, 2022 We intend to co-invest, subject to the conditions included in the

investment opportunities and provide an ability to achieve greater diversification in our investment portfolio.  40

SEC Exemptive Order On October 7, 2020, the Corporation, RCM and certain of their affiliates received exemptive relief from the SEC to permit the Corporation
to co-invest in portfolio companies with certain other funds, including other BDCs and registered investment companies managed by RCM and certain of its affiliates, in a manner consistent with the
Corporations investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements, subject to compliance with certain conditions (the Order). Pursuant to the Order, the Corporation is generally
permitted to co-invest with affiliated funds if a required majority (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the Corporations independent directors makes certain conclusions in
connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Corporation and its shareholders and do
not involve overreaching in respect of the Corporation or its shareholders on the part of any person concerned; and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of the Corporations shareholders and is consistent with the
Corporations investment objective and strategies. On March 29, 2021, the SEC approved a new exemptive relief order (the
New Order) reflecting the new organizational structure of RCM and its affiliates after the Adviser Change of Control. This New Order supersedes the Order and permits, subject to compliance with specified conditions, the Corporation to co-invest with funds managed by RCM and its affiliates under RCMs current ownership structure after the completion of the Adviser Change in Control. COVID-19 Update Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, our investment adviser, RCM, has continued to engage in
active discussions with the management teams of the companies within our portfolio regarding actions taken by those portfolio companies with respect to the safety and welfare of their employees. RCM has informed us about the impact of COVID-19 on the businesses of our portfolio companies, and the potential impact of disruptions in the supply chain, and the actions these portfolio companies have taken, and are taking, to adapt to changes in
demand, both increased and decreased, depending upon the portfolio company. While we do not know what the ultimate long-term impact of the COVID -19 pandemic will be on our portfolio companies, RCM is actively
monitoring our portfolio companies, their liquidity and operational status. Critical Accounting Policies We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which
require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. A summary of our critical accounting policies can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2021 under Item 7 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.  41

facility (the Credit Facility), with the amount that we can borrow thereunder, at any given time, determined based upon a borrowing base formula. The Credit Facility has a 5-year term with a
maturity date of June 27, 2027. Our borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate determined as a rate per annum equal to 3.50 percentage points above the greater of (i) the applicable daily simple secured overnight
financing rate (SOFR) and (ii) 0.25%. There was no outstanding balance drawn on the Credit Facility at June 30, 2022. See Note 6. Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility for additional information regarding the terms of our Credit
Facility. Composition of Our Investment Portfolio Our financial condition is dependent on the success of our portfolio holdings. The following summarizes our investment portfolio at the dates

in privately held, lower middle market companies with a committed and experienced management team in a broad variety of industries. We may invest in publicly traded shares of other business development companies that provide income through dividends
and have more liquidity than our private company equity investments.  42

companies  Interest from portfolio companies was approximately 57% higher during the three months ended June 30, 2022 versus the same period in 2021 due to the fact that we originated more interest yielding investments during the last

Dividend and other investment income - Dividend income is comprised of cash distributions from
limited liability companies (LLCs) and corporations in which we have invested, including our investment in the shares of publicly traded business development companies (BDC). Our investment agreements with certain LLCs require those LLCs to
distribute funds to us for payment of income taxes on our allocable share of the LLCs profits. These portfolio companies may also elect to make additional discretionary distributions. Dividend income will fluctuate based upon the profitability
of these LLCs and corporations and the timing of the distributions. The dividend distributions for the respective periods were:  Three months endedJune 30, 2022

unamortized fees are carried on the balance sheet under the line item Deferred revenue. The income associated with the

(105.9
%) The decrease in total expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2022 versus the same period in 2021
was primarily due to a $1,723,000 decrease in the capital gains incentive fees and a $104,190 decrease in interest expense. The decrease in capital gains incentive fees during the three months ended June 30, 2022 is due to the decrease in
unrealized appreciation on our publicly traded securities. The Investment Management Agreement with RCM does not consider unrealized gains in calculating the amount of the capital gains incentive fee payable under that agreement. However, as
required by GAAP, we must accrue capital gains incentive fees including unrealized gains. Our capital gains incentive fee accrual, on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, reflects the capital gains incentive fees that would be payable
to RCM if our entire investment portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though RCM is not entitled to be paid a capital gains incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are
actually realized.  44

(94.8
%) The decrease in total expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2022 versus the same period in 2021
was primarily due to a $4,562,760 decrease in the capital gains incentive fees and a $208,380 decrease in interest expense. The decrease
in capital gains incentive fees is due to an adjustment of the capital gains incentive fees accrual during the six months ended June 30, 2022 based on valuation changes within our portfolio companies. The Investment Management Agreement with
RCM does not consider unrealized gains in calculating the amount of the capital gains incentive fee payable under that agreement. However, as required by GAAP, we must accrue capital gains incentive fees including unrealized gains. Our capital gains
incentive fee accrual, on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, reflects the capital gains incentive fees that would be payable to RCM if our entire investment portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even
though RCM is not entitled to be paid a capital gains incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. During the fourth quarter of 2021, we repaid, in full, our $11,000,000 of outstanding SBA debentures, using cash on hand. Therefore, we did
not incur any interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2022, while we incurred $208,380 during the same period in 2021. These decreases are offset by increases in our base management fees and professional fees. The base management fee, payable to RCM, increased
21%, or $82,526, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 versus the same period in 2021 because, as we deploy more cash into investments, the base management fee payable to RCM increases accordingly. Professional fees increased 56%, or
$159,097, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 versus the same period in 2021 because we incurred increased fees associated with the complex regulatory environment in which we operate. Net Investment Income (Loss) The net

Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet anticipated cash requirements, fund new and follow-on
portfolio investments, pay distributions to our shareholders and respond to other general business demands. As of June 30, 2022, our total liquidity consisted of approximately $1,189,000 in cash. In addition, we hold publicly traded equity
securities of several BDCs and ACV Auctions, which are available for future liquidity requirements. During the second quarter of 2022, we
entered into a new $25 million Credit Facility. The amount we can borrow, at any given time, under the Credit Facility is tied to a borrowing base, which is measured as (i) 75% of the aggregate sum of the fair market values of the publicly
traded equity securities we hold (other than shares of ACV Auctions) plus (ii) the least of (a) 75% of the fair market value of the shares of ACV Auctions we hold, (b) $6.25 million and (c) 25% of the aggregate borrowing base availability
for the Credit Facility at any date of determination plus (iii) 50% of the aggregate sum of the fair market values of eligible private loans we hold that meet specified criteria plus (iv) the lesser of (a) 50% of the aggregate sum of the fair
market values of unsecured private loans we hold that meet specified criteria and (b) $1.25 million minus (v) such reserves as the Lender may establish from time to time in its sole discretion. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of
June 27, 2027. As of June 30, 2022, under the borrowing base formula described above, we could have borrowed approximately $21.0 million under the Credit Facility. Our borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate determined as a rate per annum equal to 3.50 percentage points above
the greater of (i) the applicable daily simple secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) and (ii) 0.25%. The Credit Agreement contains
representations and warranties and affirmative, negative and financial covenants usual and customary for agreements of this type, including among others covenants that prohibit, subject to certain specified exceptions, our ability to merge or
consolidate with other companies, sell any material part of our assets, incur other indebtedness, incur liens on our assets, make investments or loans to third parties other than permitted investments and permitted loans, and declare any
distribution or dividend other than certain permitted distributions. The Credit Agreement includes the following financial covenants: (i) a tangible net worth covenant that requires us to maintain a Tangible Net Worth (defined in the Credit
Agreement as our aggregate assets, excluding intangible assets, less all of our liabilities) of not less than $50.0 million, which is measured quarterly at the end of each fiscal quarter, (ii) an asset coverage ratio covenant that requires
us to maintain an Asset Coverage Ratio (defined in the Credit Agreement as the ratio of the fair market value of all of our assets to the sum of all of our obligations for borrowed money plus all capital lease obligations) of not less than
3:00:1:00, which is measured quarterly at the end of each fiscal quarter and (iii) an interest coverage ratio covenant that requires us to maintain an Interest Coverage Ratio (defined in the Credit Agreement as the ratio of Cash Flow (as
defined in the Credit Agreement) to Interest Expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement)) of not less than 2:50:1:00, which is measured quarterly on a trailing twelve-months basis. There was no outstanding balance drawn on the Credit Facility at June 30, 2022. See Note 6. Senior Secured Revolving Credit
Facility on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position for additional information regarding the terms of our Credit Facility. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we experienced a net increase in cash of approximately $355,000, which is a net effect of
approximately $1,129,000 of cash provided in our operating activities and approximately $774,000 used in our financing activities. We anticipate that we will continue to fund our investment activities through cash, cash flows generated through our ongoing operating
activities, the sale of our publicly traded liquid investments, and through borrowings under the $25 million Credit Facility. We anticipate that we will continue to exit investments. However, the timing of liquidation events with respect to our
privately held investments is difficult to project.  51

Our ongoing liquidity is tied to the performance of our portfolio companies and, as such, it
may be affected going forward based on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its lasting impact on the capital markets, our portfolio companies, and the U.S. economy in general.  Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Our investment activities contain elements of risk. Our investment portfolio primarily consists of equity and debt securities in private
companies and is subject to valuation risk. Because there is typically no public market for the equity and debt securities in which we invest, the valuation of the equity interests in the portfolio is stated at fair value as determined
in good faith by RCM and approved by our Board of Directors. This is in accordance with our investment valuation policy (see the discussion of valuation policy contained in Note 3. Investments in the Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in Item 1 of this report, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.) In the absence of readily ascertainable market values, the estimated value of investments in our portfolio may differ significantly from the values that would be
placed on such investments in our portfolio if a ready market for the investments existed. Any changes in valuation are recorded on the consolidated statement of operations as Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments. At times, our portfolio may include, and does currently include, marketable securities traded in the over-the-counter market or on other stock markets. In addition, there may be a portion of the portfolio for which no regular trading market exists. In order to realize the full value of a security, the market
must trade in an orderly fashion, or a willing purchaser must be available when a sale is to be made. Should an economic or other event occur that would not allow markets to trade in an orderly fashion, we may not be able to realize the fair value
of our marketable investments or other investments in a timely manner. At June 30, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or hedging or similar derivative financial instrument investments.  Item 4.
Controls and Procedures Disclosure Controls and Procedures.The Corporation maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under 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 this
information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures,
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporations controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
during the Corporations most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporations internal control over financial reporting.  52
