|Item 1. | Business
|------- | --------

Overview

We are an externally managed, closed-end,
non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a Business Development Company, or BDC, under the 1940 Act. We also intend to elect to be treated, and intend to
qualify annually thereafter as a Registered Investment Company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014. We were formed to expand the
venture growth stage business segment of TPCs global investment platform and are the primary vehicle through which TPC focuses its venture growth stage business. Our investment objective is to maximize our total return to stockholders
primarily in the form of current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by primarily lending with warrants to venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries which are backed by
TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors.

We originate and invest primarily in loans that have a
secured collateral position and are used by venture growth stage companies to finance their continued expansion and growth, equipment financings and, on a select basis, revolving loans, together with, in many cases, attached equity
kickers in the form of warrants, and direct equity investments. We underwrite our investments seeking an unlevered yield-to-maturity on our growth capital
loans and equipment financings generally ranging from 10% to 18% and on our revolving loans generally ranging from 1% above the applicable prime rate to 10%, in each case, with potential for higher returns in the event we are able to exercise
warrants and realize gains or sell our related equity investments at a profit. We also generally underwrite our secured loans seeking a loan-to-enterprise value of less
than 25%. We make investments that our Advisers senior investment team believes have a low probability of loss due to our expertise and the revenue profile, product validation, customer commitments, intellectual property, financial condition
and enterprise value of the potential opportunity. We believe these investments provide us with a stable, fixed-income revenue stream along with the potential for
equity-related gains on a risk-adjusted basis. We believe that the venture growth stage debt market presents a compelling growth channel for us because it has high
barriers to entry and is underserved by both traditional lenders and existing debt financing providers to venture capital-backed companies given the brand, reputation and market acceptance, industry
relationships, venture lending and leasing expertise, specialized skills, track record, and other factors required to lend to companies backed by leading venture capital investors. Additionally, we believe our investments are distinct compared with
the investments made by more traditional lenders because our investments provide us the ability to invest alongside leading venture capital investors in companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries. We also believe
that our investments are distinct compared to the investments made by existing debt financing providers to venture capital backed companies given our primary focus on venture growth stage companies backed by TPCs select group of leading
venture capital investors.

We believe we are able to successfully structure these investments as a result of
the strong value proposition our secured loans offer to both borrowers and their venture capital investors. Our secured loans provide venture growth stage companies with an opportunity to:



| |  |  | diversify their funding sources;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | augment their existing capital base and extend operating capital;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | scale business operations and accelerate growth;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fund administrative expenses ahead of anticipated corresponding revenue;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | expand product offerings through internal development or acquisitions;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | lower the upfront costs of capital expenditures;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | build and/or expand their leadership positions within their respective markets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | accelerate and/or smooth out the timing of cash collections; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | delay and/or postpone the need for its next round of equity financing,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------

in each case, extending its cash available to fund operations without incurring substantial equity dilution during a critical time in their
lifecycle when they are meaningfully building enterprise value.

We commenced investment activities on March 5, 2014.
In order to expedite the ramp-up of our investment activities and further our ability to meet our investment objectives, on March 5, 2014, we acquired our initial portfolio. The net consideration paid was
approximately $121.7 million which reflected approximately $123.7 million of investments less approximately $2.0 million for the prepaid interest and the fair value of unfunded commitments. We financed the acquisition of our initial
portfolio by using a portion of the Bridge Facility provided by Deutsche Bank. On March 11, 2014, we completed our initial public offering and sold 9,840,655 shares of common stock (including 1,250,000 shares of common stock through the
underwriters exercise of their overallotment option and the concurrent private placement of 257,332 shares of common stock to our Advisers senior investment team and other persons associated with TPC) of our common stock at an offering
price of $15.00 per share. We received $141.6 million of net proceeds in connection with the initial public offering and concurrent private placement, net of the portion of underwriting fees and offering costs we paid. We used these net
proceeds to pay down all amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility and terminated the Bridge Facility in conjunction with such repayment. In February 2014, we entered into the Credit Facility, which became effective concurrent with the
completion of our initial public offering. In August 2014, we amended the Credit Facility to increase the total commitments by $50.0 million to $200.0 million in aggregate. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at the sum
of (i) the commercial paper rate for certain specified lenders and 30-day LIBOR for other lenders or, if LIBOR is unavailable, the higher of Deutsche Banks commercial lending rate or the Federal
Funds Rate plus 0.50% plus (ii) a margin of 3.5% during the Credit Facilitys revolving period. The revolving period under the Credit Facility expires in 2016.

TPCs global investment platform serves venture capital-backed companies backed by its select group of leading venture capital investors across all five stages of development of a venture capital-backed companys
lifecycle with dedicated business segments focused on providing creative, flexible and customized debt financings and complementary services at each stage. In addition, TPC has a business segment targeting equity investing in seed, early and later
stage venture capital-backed companies called TriplePoint Ventures. TPC also has a fund of funds business segment which seeks to selectively invest in venture capital funds established by certain
of its select group of leading venture capital investors.

TPC utilizes a unique,
relationship-based lending strategy which primarily targets companies funded by a select group of leading venture capital investors. TPC refers to this approach as the TriplePoint Lifespan
Approach. Key elements of the TriplePoint Lifespan Approach include:



| |  |  | establishing debt financing relationships with select venture capital-backed companies across all five
lifecycle stages of development;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | working with TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors to identify debt financing opportunities within their portfolio companies
that we believe have established management teams, strong investor support, large market opportunities, innovative technology or intellectual property and sufficient cash on hand and equity backing to support a potential debt financing opportunity
on attractive risk-adjusted terms;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | developing debt financing relationships as early as possible in a venture capital-backed companys
lifecycle in order to have a real-time understanding of the companys capital needs and be in a strategic position to evaluate and capitalize on additional investment opportunities as the company matures;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diligently monitoring the progress and ongoing creditworthiness of a borrower; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | serving as a creative, flexible and dependable financing partner with a focus on efficiency, responsiveness and customer service.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In February 2014, our Adviser entered into the Staffing Agreement with TPC, under which TPC has made
and will continue to make, its investment and portfolio management and monitoring teams available to our Adviser. We believe that the Staffing Agreement (i) provides us with access to deal flow generated by TPC in the ordinary course of its
business; (ii) provides us with access to TPCs investment professionals, including its senior investment team led by TPCs co-founders, Messrs. Labe and Srivastava, and TPCs
non-investment employees; and (iii) commits certain key senior members of TPCs Investment Committee to serve as members of our Advisers Investment Committee. TPC is obligated under the
Staffing Agreement to allocate investment opportunities among its affiliates fairly and equitably over time in accordance with its allocation policy. Our Adviser is responsible for determining if we will participate in deal flow generated by TPC.
Our Adviser takes advantage of the significant deal origination channels, rigorous due diligence process, disciplined underwriting methods, creative investment structuring and hands-on portfolio management and
investment monitoring capabilities of TPCs senior investment team.

Our Adviser

Our investment activities are managed by our Adviser, which is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or the Advisers Act and is a subsidiary of TPC. Our Adviser is responsible for sourcing, reviewing and structuring investment opportunities for us, underwriting and diligencing our investments and
monitoring our investment portfolio on an ongoing basis. Our Adviser was organized in August 2013 and, pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, we pay our Adviser a base management fee and an incentive fee for its services. Our Adviser has
retained Mr. Carl M. Rizzo to act as its Chief Compliance Officer under the terms of an agreement between our Adviser and Alaric Compliance Services LLC. For information regarding our Adviser, see BusinessManagement
AgreementsInvestment Advisory Agreement and Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsRelated Party Agreements and TransactionsInvestment Advisory Agreement.

Investment Strategy

Overview

Our investment objective is to maximize our total return to stockholders primarily in the form of current income and, to a
lesser extent, capital appreciation. We pursue our investment objective by relying on a core investment philosophy described as the Four Rs. The Four Rs stand for:



| |  |  | RelationshipsWe seek to develop and maintain deep, longstanding and mutually beneficial relationships with TPCs select group of
leading venture capital investors, borrowers and entrepreneurs.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ReputationWe seek to preserve and extend the strong reputation of TPCs brand and franchise as a creative, flexible and
dependable financing partner with a focus on efficiency, responsiveness and customer service when interacting with venture capital investors, borrowers and entrepreneurs and when originating, structuring, underwriting and monitoring our investments.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ReferencesWe seek to make every venture capital investor, borrower and entrepreneur with whom we work a reference so that they not
only work with us again but encourage others to work with us also. We believe that receiving referrals from TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors, borrowers and entrepreneurs is a critical part of our investment origination
process and differentiates us from other lenders.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ReturnsWe believe that by focusing on relationships, reputation and references, in addition to utilizing our specialized and
established credit and monitoring process, we generate attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long-term.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We invest primarily in (i) growth capital loans that have a secured collateral position and that are used by venture
growth stage companies to finance their continued expansion and growth, (ii) equipment financings, which may be structured as loans or leases, that have a secured collateral position on specified
mission-critical equipment, (iii) on a select basis, revolving loans that have a secured collateral position and that are used by venture growth stage companies to advance against inventory, components,
accounts receivable, contractual or future billings, bookings, revenues, sales or cash payments and collections including proceeds from a sale, financing or equivalent and (iv) direct equity investments in venture growth stage companies. We
also generally underwrite our secured loans seeking a loan-to-enterprise value of less than 25%. In connection with our growth capital loans, equipment financings and
revolving loans, we generally receive warrants that allow us to participate in any equity appreciation of our borrowers and enhance our overall investment returns.

Target Venture Growth Stage Companies

We primarily target investment opportunities in venture growth stage companies backed by venture capital investors. However,
having backing from a venture capital investor does not guarantee financing from us. Prospective borrowers must further qualify based on our Advisers rigorous and established investment selection and underwriting criteria and generally have
many of the following characteristics:



| |  |  | financing from a member of TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors with whom TPC has an established history of providing
secured loans alongside equity investments made by these venture capital investors;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | focused in technology, life sciences or other high growth industries and targeting an industry segment with a large and/or growing market
opportunity;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | completion of their primary technology and product development;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | meaningful customer sales, commitments or orders and have generated or we believe are reasonably expected to generate within the current fiscal
year or on an annualized run rate at least $20 million in revenues and a strong outlook for continued and/or potentially rapid revenue growth;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a leadership position in its market (or the potential to establish a leadership position) with potential and/or defensible barriers to entry;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an experienced and relatively complete senior management team with a successful track record;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | support from existing venture capital investors in the form of meaningful invested equity capital relative to our investment amount and/or reserved
capital or willingness to invest additional capital as needed;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | strong likelihood of raising additional equity capital or achieving an exit in the form of an initial public offering or sale based on our
determination;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | differentiated products, unique technology, proprietary intellectual property, and/or positive clinical results that may have intrinsic value on a stand-alone and/or liquidation basis;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | meaningful enterprise value relative to the size of our investment as indicated by a recent equity round valuation or as determined by a third-party with, in our Advisers senior investment teams opinion, the potential for upside;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a balanced current financial condition typically with 12 months or more of operating cash runway based on its projected cash burn and/or a
path to profitability typically over a three to five year period from the date of our investment; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | upcoming strategic and potential enterprise valuation-accreting business milestones that our investment can
help provide operating cash runway for the company to achieve.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For many venture capital-backed companies, we believe that the venture growth stage is generally the point in their lifecycle at which they begin operational and financial preparations for a liquidity event, such as an initial
public offering or private sale. We believe these investments provide us with a stable, fixed-income revenue stream along with the potential for equity-related gains on
a risk-adjusted basis. We invest opportunistically in venture capital-backed companies at other lifecycle stages of development when our Advisers senior investment
team believes that they present an attractive investment opportunity for us, subject to our compliance with applicable requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or the 1940 Act.

Invest with TPCs Select Group of Leading Venture Capital Investors

We generally expect to (i) benefit from the relationships developed by TPC as part of its TriplePoint Lifespan Approach
and (ii) target investment opportunities backed by a select group of leading venture capital investors with whom our Advisers senior investment team has an established history of providing secured loans alongside equity investments made
by these venture capital investors. We believe these well-recognized firms have consistently generated strong returns through superior selection processes and access to experienced entrepreneurs and quality
investment opportunities based upon their strong reputations and track records, specialized knowledge and experienced investment professionals. As a result of this strategy, we focus and narrow our investment sourcing efforts to those investment
opportunities backed by these leading venture capital investors with established track records targeting investments in Silicon Valley, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, Northern Virginia, San Diego, Seattle, the United Kingdom, Israel
and other geographic areas of venture capital investments. We believe these relationships serve as an important source of investment opportunity referrals for us. We work with our select group of leading venture capital investors to identify debt

financing opportunities within their portfolio companies that we believe have established management teams, strong venture capital investor support, large market opportunities, innovative
technology or intellectual property, potential for meaningful warrant and/or equity returns and sufficient cash reserves to complement a potential debt financing opportunity.

Focus in Technology, Life Sciences and other High Growth Industries

We generally target technology, life sciences and other high growth industries and further specialize in subsectors within each
of these industries including:



| |  |  | Technologyareas of focus include: big data, cloud computing, communications, consumer, data storage, electronics, energy efficiency,
hardware, information services, internet and media, networking, semiconductors, software, software as a service, wireless communications and other technology related subsectors;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Life Sciencesareas of focus include: biotechnology, diagnostic testing and bioinformatics, drug delivery, drug discovery, healthcare
information systems, healthcare services, medical, surgical and therapeutic devices, pharmaceuticals and other life science related subsectors; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other High Growth Industriesareas of focus vary depending upon our Advisers investment strategy.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our Adviser seeks to invest in those subsectors where our Adviser sees opportunities for innovation, globalization, demand and
other drivers of change create significant business opportunities for venture growth stage companies with cutting edge technology, differentiated value propositions and sustainable competitive advantages. As a result, we believe that companies in
these subsectors are more likely to attract significant investment from venture capital investors, private equity firms or strategic partners and are a more attractive candidate for a liquidity event than a company in a non-high growth industry.

Offer Creative Financing Solutions with Attractive Risk-Adjusted Pricing

Debt financings for venture growth stage companies are
extremely diverse with use of proceeds, repayment structures and value propositions varying considerably among different company types. Our debt financings are customized based on a host of factors, including our review, assessment and analysis of
each companys management team, business outlook, underlying technology, support from its venture capital investors, products or services, current and future financial profile, intended use of our proceeds and anticipated payback structure,
timing of a liquidity event and return potential. The diversity of debt financing possibilities requires prospective lenders to demonstrate a high degree of venture lending and leasing expertise and technology, life sciences and other high growth
industries knowledge, specialization, willingness to provide customized products and flexibility. We believe the members of our Advisers senior investment team are uniquely situated given their extensive industry background, track record,
knowledge and lending experience in the technology, life sciences and other high growth industries, as well as venture capital, private equity and credit, to analyze, structure and underwrite such debt financings. We believe that we have the ability
to appropriately price the investment opportunities we originate based upon the debt structures we employ and the individual risk profiles of our borrowers to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for us
and our stockholders.

Generate Equity Upside over Time through Warrant and Equity Investments

In connection with our secured loans, we generally receive warrants to acquire preferred or common stock in a venture growth
stage company with an exercise price typically equal to the same price per share paid by the companys venture capital investors in its last round of equity financing or a recent valuation of the venture growth stage company as determined by a third-party. Our warrant coverage generally ranges from 2% to 10% of the committed loan amount. The warrants we obtain typically include a cashless exercise provision to allow us to exercise these rights
without any additional cash investment. We also generally receive the opportunity to invest equity directly in our venture growth stage companies. We believe that making equity investments and



6

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

receiving warrants in venture growth stage companies with exit events on the horizon, such as an initial public offering or private sale, increases the likelihood of equity appreciation and
enhanced investment returns. As a venture growth stage companys enterprise value changes we expect to recognize unrealized gains or losses from the fair value changes in our warrants and equity investments and in conjunction with either a sale
of the company or in connection with or following an initial public offering, we expect to achieve additional investment returns and realized gains from the exercise of these warrants and the sale of the underlying stock.

Utilize a Disciplined Investment Process

Our Advisers senior investment team leverages the more than 25 years of experience and expertise of Mr. Labe,
one of TPCs co-founders, and the track record developed by Messrs. Labe and Srivastava at TPC since its inception for reviewing prospective borrowers and potential financings, structuring those
financings and subsequently monitoring those that are pursued and made, through which our Advisers senior investment team has succeeded in making profitable investments and minimizing credit losses. Additionally, we believe that the credit
performance of our venture growth stage companies and the returns associated with lending to these companies are enhanced through our Advisers focus on originating investments primarily backed by TPCs select group of leading venture
capital investors and having an understanding of their outlook and/or support of our prospective and existing borrowers.

Employ
Active Portfolio Management Processes

Our Adviser utilizes an extensive internal credit tracking and monitoring
approach to regularly follow a venture growth stage companys actual financial performance and achievement of business-related milestones to ensure that the internal risk rating assigned to each venture
growth stage company investment is appropriate. This process has been refined and validated by Messrs. Labe and Srivastava, TPCs co-founders, and the track record developed by TPC since its
inception and is based, in part, on its expertise, familiarity and deep understanding of the risk associated with investing in various stages of a venture capital-backed companys lifespan. The analysis
focuses on both quantitative metrics, such as cash balance and cash burn, and our Advisers qualitative assessment in various areas, such as the outlook for the borrowers industry segment, progress of product development, overall
adherence to the business plan, financial condition, future growth potential and ability to raise additional equity capital. Our Adviser maintains dialogue and contact with our borrowers management teams to discuss, among other topics,
business progress, cash flow, financial condition and capital structure issues. Our Adviser also typically engages in dialogue with the venture capital investors in our borrowers to understand and assess the companys progress and development
and the venture capital investors outlook and/or level of support for our borrower and in conjunction with the Four Rs, our core investment philosophy, determines the appropriate course of action for borrowers on our Credit Watch List.

Investment Structure

We offer a full range of creative, flexible and customized secured financing products that includes a combination of an initial
facility fee, interest and principal payments, end-of-term payments and warrant and/or equity sale proceeds. Although the general components for each type of our debt
financing products are substantially the same, we select and customize the specific debt financing product on a case-by-case basis based on our Advisers senior
investment teams experience and their analysis of a prospective borrower, its financing needs and its intended use of the proceeds from our debt financing product. For example, the type of debt financing transaction, the total repayment
period, the interest-only period, the amortization period, the collateral position, the warrant coverage and the overall
yield-to-maturity may vary. We make investments that our Advisers senior investment team believes have a low probability of loss due to our expertise and the
revenue profile, product validation, customer commitments, intellectual property, financial condition and enterprise value of the potential opportunity. Our debt financing products are typically structured as lines of credit, whereby a prospective
borrower may be required to draw some of the commitment amount at close but may have up to 18 months from document execution to access the debt financing capital and in limited cases future advances may be subject to certain predetermined
performance milestones.

Growth Capital Loans

Key typical attributes of our growth capital loans include:



| |  |  | Size ranges from $5 million to $50 million. We generally target and balance our growth capital loan size to the total equity capital
base, the current or near term enterprise value, revenue run rate and current and near team cash and liquidity profile of a prospective borrower;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Short total repayments typically ranging from 36 to 60 months or less and provide for interest only or moderate loan amortization in the early
period of the loan, with the majority of the amortization deferred until 24 to 48 months after the loans funding date or a large lump sum payment on its maturity;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Unlevered yield-to-maturity generally ranging from 10% to 18%,
which may include current interest payments, upfront and facility fees, an end-of-term payment and/or a PIK interest payment. Our end-of-term payments are contractual and fixed interest payments due at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed percentage of the original principal balance of the loan. A
meaningful portion of the difference between our yield-to-maturity and the stated interest rate on the loan is recognized as
non-cash income until it is paid;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Equity kickers in the form of warrants to acquire preferred or common stock in the prospective borrower that allow us to participate in
any equity appreciation and enhance our overall returns;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Secured by a senior secured lien on all of the prospective borrowers assets including a pledge or negative pledge on its intellectual
property. For certain prospective borrowers we are the only form of secured debt (other than potentially specific equipment financing). Other prospective borrowers may also have a revolving loan, typically from a bank, to finance receivables, cash,
billings, bookings or inventory, and the collateral for such financing may be the underlying financed asset, bank accounts and/or a senior lien in priority to our senior lien. In addition, there may be prospective borrowers that have a term loan
facility, with or without an accompanying revolving loan, typically from a bank, that may be in priority to our senior lien; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Limited and/or flexible covenant structures and with certain affirmative and negative covenants, default penalties, lien protection, investor
abandonment provisions, material adverse change provisions, change-of-control provisions, restrictions on additional use of leverage, reimbursement for upfront and
regular internal and third party expenses as well as prepayment penalties.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equipment Financings

Key typical attributes of our equipment financings include:



| |  |  | Size ranges from $5 million to $25 million. We generally target the size of our equipment financing to anticipate the capital equipment
needs for a prospective borrower over a twelve month period balanced by the total equity capital base, the current or near term enterprise value, revenue run rate and current and near team cash and liquidity profile of a prospective borrower;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Short total repayments typically ranging from 36 to 48 months or less and provide for short interest only periods followed by full
amortization;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Structured as full payout loans or leases with either buyout provisions based on the fair market value of the financed equipment or a fixed end-of term payment;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Unlevered yield-to-maturity generally ranging from 10% to 15%,
which may include current interest payments, upfront and facility fees, an end-of-term payment and/or a PIK interest payment. Our end-of-term payments are contractual and fixed interest payments due at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed percentage of the original principal balance of the loan. The
portion of our end-of-term payments which equal the difference between our
yield-to-maturity and the stated interest rate on the loan are recognized as non-cash income until they are paid;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

any equity appreciation and enhance our overall returns;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Secured solely by the underlying equipment being financed. We expect that much of the equipment financed by us will consist of standard, off-the-shelf equipment, such as computers, electronic test and measurement, telecommunications, laboratory equipment, manufacturing or production equipment. In certain cases,
a portion of an equipment financing may finance customized equipment, software and/or expenses or soft-costs which may not have any substantial resale value; and

as prepayment penalties.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revolving Loans

On a select basis we offer revolving loans. Key typical attributes of our revolving loans include:



| |  |  | Size ranges from $1 million to $25 million. We generally structure our revolving loans subject to an advance rate against the
companys inventory, components, accounts receivable, contractual or future billings, bookings, revenues, sales or cash payments and collections including proceeds from a sale, financing or equivalent, that serve as our sole or primary
collateral in support of the repayment of such loans;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Short total repayments typically ranging from 12 to 36 months or less and typically provide for interest only periods and/or moderate loan
amortization in the early period of the loan, with the majority of the amortization deferred until 12 to 24 months after the loans funding date or on its maturity date;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Unlevered yield-to-maturity generally ranging from 1% above the
applicable prime rate to 10%, which may include current interest payments, upfront and facility fees, an end-of-term payment and/or a PIK interest payment. Our end-of-term payments are contractual and fixed interest payments due at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed percentage of the original
principal balance of the loan. The portion of our end-of-term payments which equal the difference between our yield-to-maturity and the stated interest rate on the loan are recognized as non-cash income until they are paid;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Equity kickers in the form of warrants to acquire preferred or common stock in the prospective borrower that allow us to participate in
any equity appreciation and enhance our overall returns;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Secured by a senior secured lien on all of the prospective borrowers assets including a pledge or negative pledge on its intellectual
property or on all of the specific assets financed specifically by the revolving loan such as the companys inventory, components, accounts receivable, contractual or future billings, bookings, revenues, sales or cash payments and collections
including proceeds from a sale, financing or equivalent; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Some financial covenants which may include advance rates, borrowing formulas, excess concentrations, cash requirements, business contracts or
milestones along with certain affirmative and negative covenants, default penalties, lien protection, investor abandonment provisions, material adverse change provisions,
change-of-control provisions, restrictions on additional use of leverage, reimbursement for upfront and regular internal and third party expenses as well as prepayment
penalties.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Warrants

In connection with our secured loans, we generally receive warrants to acquire preferred or common stock in a venture growth
stage company typically at the same price per share paid by the companys venture capital

investors in its last round of equity financing, a recent valuation of the venture growth stage company as determined by a third-party or in its next round
of equity financing. As a venture growth stage companys enterprise value changes we recognize unrealized gains or losses from the fair value changes in our warrants and in conjunction with either a sale of the company or in connection with or
following an initial public offering, we achieve additional investment returns and realized gains from the exercise of these warrants and the sale of the underlying stock. Warrants granted in connection with our secured loans are typically based on
a percentage of the committed loan amount, are treated as OID and may be earned at document execution and/or as the loan is funded. Warrant coverage generally ranges from 2% to 10% of the committed loan amount.

Direct Equity Investments

In connection with our secured loans, we may obtain equity investment rights that allow us to invest in a venture growth stage
companys current or next round of private equity financing on the same terms and conditions as the companys venture capital investors and/or other equity investors in the round. As a venture growth stage companys enterprise value
changes we recognize unrealized gains or losses from the fair value changes in our direct equity investments and in conjunction with either a sale of the company or in connection with or following an initial public offering, we achieve additional
investment returns and realized gains from the sale of the underlying stock. These equity investment rights to typically range from $100,000 to $5 million in size (generally not exceeding 5% of the companys total equity), although we are
under no obligation to make any such investment. Typically, these are passive investments (we do not take a board of director seat in the company) but can be strategically valuable and beneficial as an enhancement to our relationship with the
venture growth stage company and to our economic return by generating meaningful return on capital committed.

Investment Criteria

Our Adviser (i) benefits from the relationships developed by TPC as part of its TriplePoint Lifespan Approach and
(ii) typically sources investment opportunities with TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors or directly from prospective borrowers who are seeking debt financing. Many of these prospective borrowers are attracted to
TPCs reputation, extensive track record in the venture growth stage debt market, Four Rs core investment philosophy, and/or may have previously had a lending relationship with TPC. Additional origination sources for our Adviser include
an extensive network of strategic industry contacts, including former and current venture growth stage companies, financial advisers, commercial banks and accounting and law firms. Our Adviser also identifies companies with strong management teams
and innovative technology to proactively generate debt financing opportunities.

We primarily target investment
opportunities in venture growth stage companies backed by venture capital investors. However, having backing from a venture capital investor does not guarantee financing from us. Prospective borrowers must further qualify based on our Advisers
rigorous and established investment selection and underwriting criteria and generally have many of the following characteristics:



| |  |  | financing from a member of TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors with whom TPC has an established history of providing
secured loans alongside equity investments made by these venture capital investors;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | focused in technology, life sciences or other high growth industries and targeting an industry segment with a large and/or growing market
opportunity;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | completion of their primary technology and product development;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | meaningful customer sales, commitments or orders and have generated or we believe are reasonably expected to generate within the current fiscal
year or on an annualized run rate at least $20 million in revenues and a strong outlook for continued and/or potentially rapid revenue growth;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a leadership position in its market (or the potential to establish a leadership position) with potential and/or defensible barriers to entry;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

capital or willingness to invest additional capital as needed;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | strong likelihood of raising additional equity capital or achieving an exit in the form of an initial public offering or sale based on our
determination;

| |  |  | meaningful enterprise value relative to the size of our investment as indicated by a recent equity round valuation or as determined by a third-party with, in our Advisers senior investment teams opinion, the potential for upside;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a balanced current financial condition typically with 12 months or more of operating cash runway based on its projected cash burn and/or a
path to profitability typically over a three to five year period from the date of our investment; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | upcoming strategic and potential enterprise valuation-accreting business milestones that our investment can
help provide operating cash runway for the company to achieve.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We underwrite our transactions to ensure
that our customers have a strategic and balanced intended use of our investment proceeds without us taking excessive risk and with a low likelihood of default. We believe that the profiles of the venture growth stage companies that we target
mitigate our risk because we expect these companies have several options to repay our debt financing through:



| |  |  | cash flow either from achieving the strong and rapid revenue and profitability plans targeted at the time of our underwriting or in a downside risk
scenario from reducing growth and associated operating expenses;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | receiving additional cash from new equity investors based on the progress and development made by the company and their outlook for growth or in a
downside risk scenario from existing equity investors to avoid them from otherwise losing all of their invested capital given our ability to foreclose on our collateral;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | receiving acquisition offers from strategic or other financials investors or undertaking an initial public offering, given their large and growing
market opportunities, the stage of development of their underlying technology and products and their financial profile; or
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in a worst case scenario, liquidating underlying assets including any proceeds from the sale of equipment, inventory, accounts receivable and/or
intellectual property.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Upon referral or contact, a prospective borrower is added to our Advisers on-line client management system and assigned to one of our Advisers Originations professionals who becomes the prospective borrowers primary contact with us. The Originations professional evaluates the
prospective borrower in more depth to understand its debt financing needs and to determine whether or not it is qualified under our criteria. Upon initial screening, the Originations professional generally meets with the prospective borrower and
performs a preliminary investigation of the prospective borrowers management, operations and business outlook. The Originations professional generally consults with, and gathers information from, a wide variety of industry sources to assess
the prospective borrower and its industry. In addition, the Originations professional may reach out to the prospective borrowers venture capital investors to understand the background of their investment in the company, their outlook for the
company, the companys market and products, the companys goals and objectives associated with the proposed debt financing and the venture capital investors level of support for the company. If the Originations professional is
satisfied with the preliminary assessment of the prospective borrowers management, operations and business prospects, the Originations professional submits an internal

pre-screen memorandum of the proposed debt transaction to our Advisers senior investment team for discussion and review, as well as for pricing and
structuring guidance. Each potential investment opportunity that our Advisers Originations professionals determine merits investment consideration is presented and evaluated at a weekly meeting in which our Advisers senior investment
team discusses the merits and risks of a potential investment opportunity, as well as the due diligence process and the pricing and structure. If our Advisers senior investment team believes an investment opportunity fits our investment
profile, the Originations professional submits a non-binding term sheet to the prospective borrower.

Diligence Process

Assuming the non-binding term-sheet submitted
to the prospective borrower is subsequently executed, the investment opportunity is then subject to our Advisers rigorous diligence and credit analysis process, which is based on its senior investment teams extensive experience and
tailored specifically for venture growth stage companies. This process differs notably from traditional lending analysis, combining both qualitative and quantitative analysis and assessment, versus traditional, purely quantitative credit analyses.
There is a heavy orientation towards a qualitative and subjective investment-oriented review, taking into account such factors as:



| |  |  | investor quality, track record and expected level of participation in future financing events;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | management team experience, completeness, performance to date, and ability to perform;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | industry segment/market attractiveness and outlook, competitive dynamics, and growth potential;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | detailed assessment and analysis of the venture growth stage companys current products or technology and future products or technology,
including value proposition and return on investment to its customers and its ability to expand and grow its customer base;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | current and future financial position, including financial projections and sensitivity analyses, historical performance, cash balance and burn
analysis, capitalization structure, feasibility of financial plan and underlying assumptions, break-even/profitability timing, future cash needs and future financing plans;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | stage of development and execution timeline and milestones and the likelihood and feasibility of achieving such milestones; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | transaction risk/return profileassessing the strengths, weaknesses, risks,
loan-to-value, liquidation values and outlook of the borrower compared to the structure, pricing, potential returns, likelihood of repayment and collateral structure of
the proposed debt financing.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our Advisers diligence and credit analysis process typically
includes on-site visits by one of our Advisers Investment and Credit Analysis professionals to a prospective borrowers headquarters and other facilities, interviews with key management and board
members and reference checks on senior management. In addition, the diligence process may include discussions with key industry research analysts, other industry participants, customers and suppliers, where appropriate. One of our Advisers
professionals also typically reviews the prospective borrowers organizational documents and structure, capital structure, assets, liabilities, employee plans, key customer or supplier contracts, legal and tax matters and other relevant legal
documentation. The Investment and Credit Analysis professional submits a detailed credit and due diligence memorandum describing and analyzing the proposed transaction, as well as the outcome of the diligence and credit analysis activities. This
memorandum is circulated to members of our Advisers Investment Committee in advance of its meetings.

Investment Committee

The objective of our Advisers Investment Committee is to leverage its members broad historical
experience, including significant entrepreneurial, credit, venture capital, venture lending and leasing expertise and technology, life sciences and other high growth industries knowledge assessing the risk and needs of venture growth stage companies
and appropriateness of prospective transactions, assessing the risk/return profile of proposed transactions, assessing the independent diligence and credit analysis and providing a forum for independent and unbiased thought, discussion, and
assessment.

Our Advisers Investment Committee is comprised of Messrs. Labe and
Srivastava. Some or all of the members of our Advisers senior investment team are asked to attend the Investment Committee meeting and are asked for a vote, which the Investment Committee members use as a factor in the formal
Investment Committee vote. The Investment Committee meets weekly and more frequently on an as-needed basis. The applicable Originations and Investment and Credit Analysis professional presents the transaction,
results of the professionals diligence review and credit analysis and the professionals recommendations to the Investment Committee. During the presentation, Investment Committee members typically ask questions, ask for clarifications,
state opinions and assessments and make other comments. When there are no further questions and the discussions have concluded, the Investment Committee holds a vote and typically only approves the proposed transaction if it receives unanimous
consent from all of the Investment Committee members. In certain situations, the Investment Committee may ask the Originations and Investment and Credit Analysis professional to perform additional analysis and resubmit the transaction at a later
Investment Committee meeting. No single criterion determines a decision to invest. The Investment Committee members weigh all the factors, both qualitative and quantitative, when making an investment decision. Our Adviser has the discretion to
modify the members of the Investment Committee and its approval process at any time without our consent.

Investment Monitoring and
Portfolio Management

Our Adviser utilizes an extensive internal credit tracking and monitoring approach to follow a
borrowers actual financial performance and achievement of business-related milestones to ensure that the internal risk rating assigned to each borrower is appropriate. This process has been refined and
validated by Messrs. Labe and Srivastava, TPCs co-founders, and the track record developed by TPC since its inception and is based in part on its expertise and deep understanding of the risk
associated with investing in various stages of a venture capital-backed companys lifespan. The analysis focuses on both quantitative metrics, such as cash balance and cash burn, and our Advisers
qualitative assessment in various areas, such as the progress of product development, overall adherence to the business plan, future growth potential and ability to raise additional equity capital. Our Adviser maintains dialogue and contact with our
borrowers management teams to discuss, among other topics, business progress, cash flow, financial condition and capital structure issues. Our Adviser also typically engages in dialogue with the venture capital investors in our borrowers to
understand and assess the companys progress and development and the venture capital investors outlook and/or level of support for our borrower.

Each of our borrowers has assigned a Customer Team consisting of staff from our Advisers Originations,
Investment and Credit Analysis, Customer Monitoring and Legal teams. We believe having a dedicated Customer Team for each borrower further strengthens the relationship we have with the borrower, which is a key component of our Advisers
strategy and affords our Adviser consistent and continuous interaction with our borrowers. A Customer Monitoring professional is assigned to all borrowers to ensure compliance with financial statement reporting, insurance filing and timely payment
requirements. These professionals review the various financial statements, compliance reports and other documents received from our borrowers on a monthly or quarterly basis, as well as publicly filed financing statements, such as UCC financing
statements and press releases, and enter them into our Advisers online platform for review by the rest of the Customer Team. In the event of a missed payment or if other credit issues arise, the Customer Monitoring professional contacts other
members of the Customer Team to initiate escalation procedures.

On a weekly basis, our Advisers Investment
Committee and our Advisers senior investment team review material events and information on our borrowers and discuss in detail those borrowers that are performing below expectations. On a quarterly basis, or more frequently as needed, our
Originations and Investment and Credit Analysis undertakes an extensive re-evaluation of each borrower and prepares a portfolio update. Key topics that are reviewed include timing/status of the next equity
financing round, cash balance and burn rate, financial and operational progress, and covenant adherence. All of these meetings are attended by each member of our Advisers Investment Committee, senior investment team and the Customer
Team for the specific borrower being reviewed.

If the outlook for a borrower, its industry or a borrowers available cash
balance or credit rating is deteriorating, or there is material downturn in the borrowers standing since our last review, we change the standing of the borrower on our Credit Watch List and our Originations and Investment and Credit Analysis
professionals contact the borrower and its venture capital investors to discuss and understand any changes. Our Originations and Investment and Credit Analysis professionals generally actively work to maintain an open dialogue with borrowers on the
Credit Watch List to work to limit the likelihood of a default. Utilizing the Four Rs, our core investment philosophy, our Adviser assesses each borrower on our Credit Watch List and, based on the recommendations from our Originations and Investment
and Credit Analysis professionals and potentially from our discussions with and representations made from the borrowers venture capital investors, determines the appropriate course of action, including decisions to enforce our rights and
remedies, modify or waive a provision of our investments, declare a default, request early pay-off, or wait for an external event, such as an acquisition or financing, to restructure a secured loan or receive
additional consideration in the form of fees or warrants. In a worst case scenario, a member of our Customer Team sells collateral with the help of management, repossess and auction assets or negotiate and structure other potential outcomes. If
bankruptcy is a possibility, a member of our Customer Team may utilize outside counsel to provide advice on avoiding this outcome or to minimize the adverse effects on us.

Consistent with TPCs existing policies, our Adviser maintains a Credit Watch List with borrowers placed into five groups
based upon our Advisers senior investment teams judgment:



|           |  |                                                                                                                                                                            |  |

During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to
December 31, 2014, there were four changes within these categories. Two borrowers were moved to Clear from White based on their strong financial profile and liquidity position although one subsequently paid off their loans and is no longer in
our portfolio. Two borrowers were moved to Yellow from White based on their performing generally below expectations and some proactive concerns. As of December 31, 2014, the weighted average investment ranking of our portfolio based on the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of our funded debt investments is 2.06.

SBIC

We may apply for a Small Business Investment Company, or SBIC, license from the U.S. Small Business Administration
if we believe that it will further our investment strategy and enhance our returns. SBICs are exempt from registration as investment companies under Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act. If this application is approved, our
SBIC subsidiary would be a wholly owned subsidiary and able to rely on an exclusion from the definition of investment company under the 1940 Act. Our SBIC subsidiary would have an investment objective substantially similar to ours and
would be able to make similar types of investments in accordance with SBIC regulations.

Competition

Debt financing for venture capital-backed companies is particularly
heterogeneousthe type, structures and sizes of debt financings often vary significantly depending on a particular companys industry and its current or near-term stage of development. The profile
and underwriting characteristics of an early stage venture capital-backed company are very different from those of a later stage venture capital-backed company and/or
those of a venture growth stage company. Furthermore, within venture growth stage companies, the uses, structures and value propositions of debt financing vary considerably among companies and industries and require a high degree of venture lending
and leasing expertise and technology, life sciences and other high growth industries knowledge, specialization and flexibility from a lender. The availability of debt financing for venture growth stage companies is further limited by factors such as
the brand, reputation and market acceptance, industry relationships, track record, and other factors required to lend to companies backed by leading venture capital investors, in addition to the distinct credit profiles of these companies and the
deep experience and specialized set of skills required to (i) source deal flow and receive investment referrals; (ii) evaluate high growth industries and sectors, business prospects, operating characteristics and collateral;
(iii) analyze potential transactions; and (iv) customize unconventional transaction structures for these companies.

We believe that venture-oriented banks tend to be the primary form of traditional
lenders participating in the market for venture growth stage companies and that they generally focus on providing lower risk and lower return financings, which tend to require and impose many restrictive covenants and conditions on borrowers, such
as limitations on outflows and borrowing formulas and requiring a significant depository relationship to facilitate rapid liquidation. In addition, we believe that most existing non-traditional debt providers
do not regularly or actively participate in venture growth stage lending due to their reluctance to underwrite the large financings required by venture growth stage companies, as well as the desire of these providers to structure deals with lower
current return but with the potential for significantly higher equity upside through warrants by lending to companies with lower valuations than would be possible in the venture growth stage lending market. As a result, most existing providers of
debt financing tend to focus on seed, early and late stage venture capital-backed companies instead of venture growth stage companies.

Our competitors include both existing and newly formed equity and debt focused public and private funds, other BDCs,
investment banks, venture-oriented banks, commercial financing companies and, to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity and hedge funds. Many of our competitors are
substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than us. For example, we believe some of our competitors may have access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our
competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which expose

them to a wider variety of investments. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC or to the distribution and
other requirements we must satisfy to maintain our qualification as a RIC.

We believe we compete effectively with these
entities primarily on the basis of TPCs reputation, track record, experience, industry knowledge and relationships and our Advisers senior investment teams contacts, efficient investment analysis,
decision-making processes, creative financing products and highly customized investment terms. We believe that the Four Rs, our core investment philosophy, enable us to continue to grow our brand name
reputation and differentiate us from our competitors. We do not compete primarily on the financing terms we offer and believe that some competitors make loans with rates that are comparable or lower than our rates. We also believe that our relationship-based approach to investing, which leverages our Advisers senior investment teams expertise in developing strong relationships with venture capital investors and venture capital-backed companies, understanding the capital needs of venture growth stage companies, structuring and customizing attractive financing solutions to meet the financing needs throughout a companys growth
stage, enables us to identify, attract and proactively capitalize on venture growth stage companies debt needs as they grow and become successful enterprises.

Legal Proceedings

We, our Adviser or our Administrator are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any
material legal proceeding threatened against us, our Adviser or our Administrator. From time to time, we, our Adviser or our Administrator may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating
to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial
condition or results of operations.

Employees

We do not have any employees as our day-to-day investment operations are managed by our Adviser. We reimburse our Adviser for
our allocable portion of expenses incurred pursuant to our Administration Agreement.

Corporate Information

Our executive offices are located at 2755 Sand Hill Road, Suite 150, Menlo Park, California 94025. We maintain a website
located at http://www.tpvg.com. Information on our website is not incorporated into or a part of this annual report on Form 10-K.

Management Agreements

Investment Advisory Agreement

Subject to the overall supervision of our Board and in accordance with the 1940 Act, our Adviser manages our day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory services to us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Adviser:



| |  |  | determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments we make;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | executes, closes, services and monitors the investments we make;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determines the securities and other assets that we will purchase, retain or sell;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | performs due diligence on prospective investments; and

| |  |  | provides us with such other investment advisory, research and related services as we may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment
of our funds.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay our Adviser a fee
for its investment advisory and management services consisting of two componentsa base management fee and an incentive fee. The cost of both the base management fee and the incentive fee are ultimately borne by our stockholders.

Base Management Fee

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of our average adjusted gross assets, including assets
purchased with borrowed funds. For services rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of
our two most recently completed calendar quarters. Such amount is appropriately adjusted (based on the actual number of days elapsed relative to the total number of days in such calendar quarter) for any share issuances or repurchases during a
calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial month or quarter are appropriately pro-rated.

Incentive Fee

The incentive fee, which provides our Adviser with a share of the income that it generates for us, consists of two
componentsinvestment income and capital gainswhich are largely independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not payable.

Under the investment income component, we pay our Adviser each quarter 20.0% of the amount by which our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a catch-up provision pursuant to which our Adviser receives all of such income in excess of the 2.0% level but less than 2.5% and subject to a total return requirement. The effect of the catch-up provision is that, subject to the total return provision discussed below, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter,
our Adviser receives 20.0% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income as if the 2.0% hurdle rate did not apply. The foregoing incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no
incentive fee in respect of our pre-incentive fee net investment income is payable except to the extent that 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since the effective
date of our election to be regulated as a BDC (March 5, 2014) exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid since March 5, 2014. In other words, any investment income incentive fee that is payable in a calendar quarter is
limited to the lesser of (i) 20.0% of the amount by which our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter exceeds the 2.0% hurdle, subject to the
catch-up provision and (ii) (x) 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since March 5, 2014 minus (y) the cumulative incentive fees accrued
and/or paid since March 5, 2014. For the foregoing purpose, the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations is the sum of our pre-incentive fee net investment income,
realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation since March 5, 2014.

Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is
possible that we may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where we incur a loss, subject to the total return requirement described in the preceding paragraph. For example, if we receive pre-incentive fee net
investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, we will pay the applicable incentive fee even if we have incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses. Our net investment income used to calculate
this component of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of our assets used to calculate the 1.75% base management fee. These calculations are appropriately pro-rated for any period of less than
three months and adjusted for any share issuance or repurchase during the current quarter.

The following is a graphical representation of the calculation of the income-related portion of the incentive fee:

Quarterly Incentive Fee Based on Net Investment
Income

Pre-incentive fee net investment income (expressed as a percentage of the value
of net assets)



LOGO

Percentage of pre-incentive fee net investment income allocated
to first component of incentive fee

Under the capital gains component of the incentive fee, we pay our Adviser at the
end of each calendar year 20.0% of our aggregate cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of that year, computed net of our aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and our aggregate cumulative unrealized depreciation
through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees. For the foregoing purpose, our aggregate cumulative realized capital gains does not include any unrealized appreciation. It
should be noted that we accrue an incentive fee for accounting purposes taking into account any unrealized appreciation in accordance with GAAP. The capital gains component of the incentive fee is not subject to any minimum return to stockholders.
If such amount is negative, then no capital gains incentive fee is payable for such year. Additionally, if the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated as of a date that is not a calendar year end, the termination date is treated as though it
were a calendar year end for purposes of calculating and paying the capital gains incentive fee.

Pre-incentive fee net investment income
does not exceed hurdle rate, therefore there is no incentive fee.

Alternative 2

Additional Assumptions



| |  |  | Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.) = 2.90%
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Pre-incentive fee net investment income (investment income  (base management fee + other
expenses)) = 2.2625%
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pre-incentive fee net investment
income exceeds hurdle rate, therefore there is an incentive fee

Incentive Fee = (100% × Catch-Up) + (the greater of 0% AND (20.0% × (pre-incentive fee net investment income  2.0%)))

= (100% × (2.2625%  2.0%)) + 0%

= 100% × 0.2625%

= 0.2625%

Alternative 3

Additional Assumptions



| |  |  | Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.) = 3.50%
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Pre-incentive fee net investment income (investment income  (base management fee + other
expenses)) = 2.8625%
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pre-incentive fee net investment
income exceeds hurdle rate, therefore there is an incentive fee

Incentive Fee = (100% × Catch-Up) + (the greater of 0% AND (20.0% × (pre-incentive fee net investment income  2.5%)))

= (100% × (2.5%  2.0%)) + (20.0% × (2.8625%  2.5%))

= 0.5% + (20.0% × 0.3625%)

= 0.5% + 0.0725%

= 0.5725%

Although our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate of 2.0%
(as shown in Alternative 3 of Example 1 above), no incentive fee is payable because 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since March 5, 2014 did not exceed the cumulative income and capital gains
incentive fees accrued and/or paid since March 5, 2014.

| |  |  | 20.0% of cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since March 5, 2014 = $10,000,000

Because our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate of 2.0% and
because 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since March 5, 2014 exceeds the cumulative income and capital gains incentive fees accrued and/or paid since March 5, 2014, an incentive fee would be

Duration and Termination

Unless terminated earlier as described below, the Investment Advisory Agreement will continue in effect for a period of two
years from its effective date. It will remain in effect from year to year thereafter if (i) (A) approved annually by our Board or (B) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities and
(ii) approved by a majority of our directors who are not interested persons. The Investment Advisory Agreement automatically terminates in the event of its assignment, as defined in the 1940 Act, by our Adviser and may be terminated
by either party without penalty upon 60 days written notice to the other. The holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities may also terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement without penalty upon 60 days written
notice. See Risk FactorsRelating to our Business and StructureWe are dependent upon our executive officers and our Advisers senior investment team and members of its Investment Committee, in particular, Messrs. Labe and
Srivastava, for our success and upon our Advisers access to such individuals pursuant to the Staffing Agreement. If our Adviser were to lose such access, our ability to achieve our investment objective could be significantly harmed.

The Investment Advisory Agreement provides that, absent criminal conduct, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Adviser and its professionals and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to
indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of our Advisers services under the Investment Advisory
Agreement or otherwise as our investment adviser.

Board Approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement

Our Board approved the Investment Advisory Agreement at its first in-person meeting,
held in November 2013. The Investment Advisory Agreement between us and our Adviser was entered into in February 2014. In reaching a decision to approve the investment advisory agreement, the Board reviewed a significant amount of information
and considered, among other things:



| |  |  | the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided to us by TPVG Advisers LLC;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the performance relative to comparable business development companies managed by other advisers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the fee structures of comparable externally managed business development companies that engage in similar investing activities;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any breakpoints under the Investment Advisory Agreement and economies of scale;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the profitability of TPVG Advisers LLC and its affiliates; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | various other matters.
| | - |  | ----------------------

Based on the information reviewed and the discussions detailed above, the Board, including all of the directors who are not
interested persons as defined in the 1940 Act, concluded that the investment advisory fee rates and terms are reasonable in relation to the services provided and approved the investment advisory agreement as being in the best interests
of our stockholders.

Administration Agreement

The Administration Agreement provides that our Administrator is responsible for furnishing us with office facilities and
equipment and providing us with clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, our Administrator performs, or oversees, or arranges for, the performance of, our required
administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial and other records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports and other materials filed with the SEC or any other regulatory
authority. In addition, our Administrator assists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports and other materials to our stockholders, and
generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. Under the Administration Agreement, our Administrator also provides managerial assistance on our behalf to those
companies that have accepted our offer to provide such assistance.

Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal
to an amount equal to our allocable portion (subject to the review of our Board) of our Administrators overhead resulting from its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and the allocable portion of the cost of our
Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs. In addition, if requested to provide significant managerial assistance to our portfolio companies, our Administrator is paid an additional amount based on the services
provided, which shall not exceed the amount we receive from such companies for providing this assistance. The Administration Agreement has an initial term of two years and may be renewed with (i) (A) the approval of our Board or (B) by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities and (ii) the approval by a majority of our directors who are not interested persons. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party
without penalty upon 60 days written notice to the other party. Stockholder approval is not required to amend the Administration Agreement.

The Administration Agreement provides that, absent criminal conduct, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, our Administrator and any person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of our Administrators services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as our administrator.

Pursuant to a sub-administration
agreement, our Administrator has engaged Vastardis Fund Services LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Conifer Financial Services LLC) to provide certain administrative services to us on behalf of our Administrator.

Staffing Agreement

In February 2014, our Adviser entered into the Staffing Agreement with TPC. Pursuant to the Staffing Agreement, TPC has made
and will continue to make, subject to the terms of the Staffing Agreement, its investment and portfolio management and monitoring teams available to our Adviser. We believe that the Staffing Agreement (i) provides us with access to deal flow
generated by TPC in the ordinary course of its business; (ii) provides us with access to TPCs investment professionals, including its senior investment team led by Messrs. Labe and Srivastava, and TPCs non-investment employees; and (iii) commits certain key senior members of TPCs Investment Committee to serve as members of our Advisers Investment Committee. Our Adviser is responsible for
determining if we will participate in deal flow generated by TPC. Our Adviser takes advantage of the significant deal origination channels, rigorous due diligence process, disciplined underwriting methods, creative investment structuring and hands-on portfolio management and investment monitoring capabilities of TPCs senior investment team. The Staffing Agreement may be terminated with 60 days prior written notice.

License Agreement

In February 2014, we entered into the License Agreement with TPC under which TPC granted us a
non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name TriplePoint and the TriplePoint logo. Under the License Agreement, we have a right to use the
TriplePoint name for so long as our Adviser or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited license, we have no legal right to the TriplePoint name. The License Agreement
remains in effect for so long as the Investment Advisory Agreement with our Adviser is in effect.

Determination of Net Asset Value

Determinations in Connection with our Investments

We determine the net asset value per share of our common stock quarterly. The net asset value per share is equal to the value
of our total assets minus liabilities and any preferred stock outstanding divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. As of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, we do not have any preferred stock outstanding.

Our investment assets are carried at fair value in accordance with the 1940 Act and ASC Topic 820. Value, as defined in
Section 2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act, is (i) the market price for those securities for which a market quotation is readily available and (ii) for all other securities and assets, fair value is as determined in good faith by our Board. Our
investments are primarily made to venture growth stage companies in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries. Given the nature of lending to these types of companies, our investments are generally considered Level 3 assets
under ASC Topic 820 because there is no known or accessible market or market indexes for these investments to be traded or exchanged. As such, we value substantially all of our investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to a
consistent valuation policy and our Board in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 820 and the 1940 Act. Due to the inherent uncertainty in determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair
value of our investments determined in good faith by our Board may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a readily available market existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

The valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, with a portion of our valuations of portfolio companies
without market quotations subject to review by one or more independent valuation firms each quarter. When an external event with respect to one of our portfolio companies, such as a purchase



24



---

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, we use the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate our valuation.

We have adopted ASC Topic 820. ASC Topic 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to
those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance regarding a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings and
provides for enhanced disclosures determined by the level within the hierarchy of information used in the valuation. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, these inputs are summarized in the three levels listed below:



| |  |  | Level 1Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the
measurement date.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2Valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable,
either directly or indirectly and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Level 3
assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models incorporating significant unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow models and other similar valuations techniques. The valuation of
Level 3 assets and liabilities generally requires significant management judgment due to the inability to observe inputs to valuation.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such
cases, an investments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of observable input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value
measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

Under ASC Topic 820, the
fair value measurement also assumes that the transaction to sell an asset occurs in the principal market for the asset or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset, which may be a hypothetical market, and
excludes transaction costs. The principal market for any asset is the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for such asset in which the reporting entity would or could sell or transfer the asset. In determining the principal market
for an asset or liability under ASC Topic 820, it is assumed that the reporting entity has access to such market as of the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are
independent, knowledgeable and willing and able to transact.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are
not readily available, our Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by our Advisers professionals that
are responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our Advisers senior investment team;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our Valuation Committee then reviews these preliminary valuations;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment is reviewed by an independent valuation firm. However, our Board does not have
de minimis investments of less than 1.0% of our gross assets (up to an aggregate of 10.0% of our gross assets) independently reviewed; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our Board then discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith, based on the input of our
Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms and our Valuation Committee.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1940 Act to make the determination that we are not selling shares of our common stock at a price below our then current net asset value at the time at which the sale is made. Our Board or an authorized committee thereof considers the following
factors, among others, in making such determination:



| |  |  | the net asset value of our common stock disclosed in the most recent periodic report we filed with the SEC;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our managements assessment of whether any material change in the net asset value has occurred (including through the realization of net gains
on the sale of our investments) from the period beginning on the date of the most recently disclosed net asset value to the period ending two days prior to the date of the sale of our common stock; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the magnitude of the difference between (i) a value that our Board or an authorized committee thereof has determined reflects the current net
asset value of our common stock, which is based upon the net asset value disclosed in the most recent periodic report we filed with the SEC, as adjusted to reflect our managements assessment of any material change in the net asset value since
the date of the most recently disclosed net asset value, and (ii) the offering price of the shares of our common stock in the proposed offering.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moreover, to the extent that there is even a remote possibility that we may (i) issue shares of our common stock at a
price below the then current net asset value of our common stock at the time at which the sale is made or (ii) trigger the undertaking (which we provided to the SEC) to suspend the offering of shares of our common stock if the net asset value
fluctuates by certain amounts in certain circumstances, our Board or an authorized committee thereof will elect, in the case of clause (i) above, either to postpone the offering until such time that there is no longer the possibility of the
occurrence of such event or to undertake to determine net asset value within two days prior to any such sale to ensure that such sale will not be below our then current net asset value, and, in the case of clause (ii) above, to comply with such
undertaking or to undertake to determine net asset value to ensure that such undertaking has not been triggered.

These
processes and procedures are part of our compliance policies and procedures. Records are made contemporaneously with all determinations described in this section and these records are maintained with other records we are required to maintain under
the 1940 Act.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

Taxation of the Company

We intend to elect to be treated and intend to qualify each year as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we
generally do not pay corporate-level federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that we timely distribute to our stockholders as dividends.

To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things:



| |  |  | derive in each taxable year at least 90% of our gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains
from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, other income derived with respect to our business of investing in stock, securities or currencies, or net income derived from an interest in a qualified publicly
traded partnership, or QPTP, hereinafter the 90% Gross Income Test; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversify our holdings so that, at the end of each quarter of each taxable year:
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at least 50% of the value of our total assets is represented by cash and cash items, U.S. Government securities, the securities of other RICs and
other securities, with other securities
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



26

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

| | limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of our total assets and not more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and
| | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | not more than 25% of the value of our total assets is invested in the securities of any issuer (other than U.S. Government securities and the
securities of other regulated investment companies), the securities of any two or more issuers that we control and that are determined to be engaged in the same business or similar or related trades or businesses, or the securities of one or more
QPTPs, or the Diversification Tests.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the case of a RIC that furnishes capital to
development corporations, there is an exception relating to the Diversification Tests described above. This exception is available only to RICs which the SEC determines to be principally engaged in the furnishing of capital to other corporations
which are principally engaged in the development or exploitation of inventions, technological improvements, new processes, or products not previously generally available, which we refer to as SEC Certification. We have not sought SEC
Certification, but it is possible that we will seek SEC Certification in future years. If we receive SEC Certification, we generally will be entitled to include, in the computation of the 50% value of our assets (described above), the value of any
securities of an issuer, whether or not we own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of the issuer, if the basis of the securities, when added to our basis of any other securities of the issuer that we own, does not exceed 5% of the
value of our total assets.

As a RIC, we (but not our stockholders) are generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax
on investment company taxable income and net capital gains that we distribute to our stockholders in any taxable year with respect to which we distribute an amount equal to at least 90% of the sum of our (i) investment company taxable income
(which includes, among other items, dividends, interest and the excess of any net realized short-term capital gains over net realized long-term capital losses and other
taxable income (other than any net capital gain), reduced by deductible expenses) determined without regard to the deduction for dividends and distributions paid and (ii) net tax-exempt interest income
(which is the excess of our gross tax-exempt interest income over certain disallowed deductions), or the Annual Distribution Requirement. We intend to distribute annually all or substantially all
of such income. Generally, if we fail to meet this Annual Distribution Requirement for any taxable year, we will fail to qualify as a RIC for such taxable year. To the extent we meet the Annual Distribution Requirement for a taxable year, but retain
our net capital gains for investment or any investment company taxable income, we are subject to U.S. federal income tax on such retained capital gains and investment company taxable income. We may choose to retain our net capital gains for
investment or any investment company taxable income, and pay the associated federal corporate income tax, including the 4% U.S. federal excise tax described below.

We are subject to a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on certain of our undistributed income, unless we timely
distribute (or are deemed to have timely distributed) an amount equal to the sum of:



| |  |  | at least 98% of our ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for the calendar year;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at least 98.2% of the amount by which our capital gains exceed our capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made by us to use our taxable year); and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While we intend to distribute any income and capital gains in order to avoid imposition of this 4% U.S. federal excise tax, we
may not be successful in avoiding entirely the imposition of this tax. In that case, we will be liable for the tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the foregoing distribution requirement.

We are authorized to borrow funds and to sell assets in order to satisfy distribution requirements. However, under the 1940
Act, we are not permitted to make distributions to our stockholders while any senior securities are



27

outstanding unless we meet the applicable asset coverage ratios. See BusinessRegulationSenior Securities. Moreover, our ability to dispose of assets to meet our
distribution requirements may be limited by (1) the illiquid nature of our portfolio and/or (2) other requirements relating to our status as a RIC, including the Diversification Tests. If we dispose of assets in order to meet the Annual
Distribution Requirement or to avoid the 4% U.S. federal excise tax, we may make such dispositions at times that, from an investment standpoint, are not advantageous.

A RIC is limited in its ability to deduct expenses in excess of its investment company taxable income (which is,
generally, ordinary income plus the excess of net short-term capital gains over net long-term capital losses). If our expenses in a given year exceed investment company
taxable income, we would experience a net operating loss for that year. However, a RIC is not permitted to carry forward net operating losses to subsequent years. In addition, expenses can be used only to offset investment company taxable income,
not net capital gain. Due to these limits on the deductibility of expenses, we may for tax purposes have aggregate taxable income for several years that we are required to distribute and that is taxable to our stockholders even if such income is
greater than the aggregate net income we actually earned during those years. Such required distributions may be made from our cash assets or by liquidation of investments, if necessary. We may realize gains or losses from such liquidations. In the
event we realize net capital gains from such transactions, you may receive a larger capital gain distribution than you would have received in the absence of such transactions.

Taxation of Company Investments

Certain of our investment practices are subject to special and complex U.S. federal income tax provisions that may, among other
things, (i) disallow, suspend or otherwise limit the allowance of certain losses or deductions, including the dividends received deduction, (ii) convert lower taxed long-term capital gains and
qualified dividend income into higher taxed short-term capital gains or ordinary income, (iii) convert ordinary loss or a deduction into capital loss (the deductibility of which is more limited),
(iv) cause us to recognize income or gain without a corresponding receipt of cash, (v) adversely affect the time as to when a purchase or sale of stock or securities is deemed to occur, (vi) adversely alter the characterization of
certain complex financial transactions and (vii) produce income that will not qualify as good income for purposes of the 90% Gross Income Test. We monitor our transactions and may make certain tax elections and may be required to borrow money
or dispose of securities to mitigate the effect of these rules and to prevent disqualification of us as a RIC but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in this regard.

Debt Instruments. In certain circumstances, we may be required to recognize taxable income
prior to which we receive cash. For example, if we hold debt instruments that are treated under applicable tax rules as having OID (such as debt instruments with an
end-of-term payment and/or PIK interest payment or, in certain cases, increasing interest rates or issued with warrants), we must include in taxable income each year a
portion of the OID that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same taxable year. Because any OID accrued will be included in our investment company taxable income for
the year of accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement and to avoid the 4% U.S. federal excise tax, even though we will not have received any corresponding cash
amount.

Warrants. Gain or loss realized by us from the sale or exchange of warrants acquired by us as well
as any loss attributable to the lapse of such warrants generally are treated as capital gain or loss. The treatment of such gain or loss as long-term or short-term
generally depends on how long we held a particular warrant.

Foreign Investments. In the event we invest in
foreign securities, we may be subject to withholding and other foreign taxes with respect to those securities. We do not expect to satisfy the requirement to pass through to our stockholders their share of the foreign taxes paid by us.

Passive Foreign Investment Companies. We may invest in the stock of a foreign corporation which is classified as
a passive foreign investment company (within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code), or



28

PFIC. In general, unless a special tax election has been made, we are required to pay tax at ordinary income rates on any gains and excess distributions with respect to
PFIC stock as if such items had been realized ratably over the period during which we held the PFIC stock, plus an interest charge. Certain adverse tax consequences of a PFIC investment may be limited if we are eligible to elect alternative tax
treatment with respect to such investment. No assurances can be given that any such election will be available or that, if available, we will make such an election.

Foreign Currency Transactions. Under the Code, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates
which occur between the time we accrue income or other receivables or accrue expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time we actually collect such receivables or pay such liabilities generally are treated as ordinary
income or loss. Similarly, on disposition of debt instruments and certain other instruments denominated in a foreign currency, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations if the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the
instrument and the date of disposition also are treated as ordinary gain or loss. These currency fluctuations related gains and losses may increase or decrease the amount of our investment company taxable income to be distributed to our stockholders
as ordinary income.

Failure to Qualify as a RIC

If we were unable to qualify for treatment as a RIC, and if certain cure provisions described below are not available, we would
be subject to tax on all of our taxable income (including our net capital gains) at regular corporate rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would they be required to be made. Distributions, including distributions
of net long-term capital gain, would generally be taxable to our stockholders as ordinary dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. Subject to certain limitations under
the Code, corporate stockholders would be eligible to claim a dividend received deduction with respect to such dividend; non-corporate stockholders would generally be able to treat such dividends as
qualified dividend income, which is subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income tax. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits would be treated first as a return of capital to the extent of the
stockholders tax basis, and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. If we fail to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year we may be subject to regular
corporate tax on any net built-in gains with respect to certain of our assets (i.e., the excess of the aggregate gains, including items of income, over aggregate losses that would have been realized
with respect to such assets if we had been liquidated) that we elect to recognize on requalification or when recognized over the next ten years.

The remainder of this discussion assumes that we qualify as a RIC for each taxable year.

Regulation

We are a BDC under the 1940 Act and intend to elect to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. The 1940 Act
contains prohibitions and restrictions relating to transactions between BDCs and their affiliates (including any investment advisers), principal underwriters and affiliates of those affiliates or underwriters and requires that a majority of the
directors of a BDC be persons other than interested persons, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act. In addition, the 1940 Act provides that we may not change the nature of our business so as to cease to be, or withdraw our election as,
a BDC without the approval of a majority of our outstanding voting securities.

We do not intend to acquire securities
issued by any investment company in excess of the limits imposed by the 1940 Act. Under these limits, we generally cannot acquire more than 3% of the voting stock of any registered investment company, invest more than 5% of the value of our total
assets in the securities of one investment company or invest more than 10% of the value of our total assets in the securities of more than one investment company. None of the policies in this paragraph is fundamental and each may be changed without
stockholder approval.

Qualifying Assets

Under the 1940 Act, a BDC may not acquire any asset other than assets of the type listed in Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act,
which are referred to as qualifying assets, 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 are the following:



| | (1) | securities purchased in transactions not involving any public offering from the issuer of such securities, which issuer (subject to certain limited
exceptions) is an eligible portfolio company, or from any person who is, or has been during the preceding 13 months, an affiliated person of an eligible portfolio company, or from any other person, subject to such rules as may be prescribed by
the SEC. An eligible portfolio company is defined in the 1940 Act as any issuer that:
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place of business in, the United States;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | is not an investment company (other than a small business investment company wholly owned by the BDC) or a company that would be an investment
company but for certain exclusions under the 1940 Act; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | satisfies either of the following:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| | i. | does not have any class of securities listed on a national securities exchange or has any class of securities listed on a national securities
exchange subject to a $250 million market capitalization maximum; or
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | ii. | is controlled by a BDC or a group of companies including a BDC, the BDC actually exercises a controlling influence over the management or policies
of the eligible portfolio company, and, as a result, the BDC has an affiliated person who is a director of the eligible portfolio company.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | securities purchased in a private transaction from a U.S. issuer that is not an investment company or from an affiliated person of the issuer, or
in transactions incident to such a private transaction, if the issuer is in bankruptcy and subject to reorganization or if the issuer, immediately prior to the purchase of its securities, was unable to meet its obligations as they came due without
material assistance other than conventional lending or financing arrangements.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (3) | securities received in exchange for or distributed on or with respect to securities described above, or pursuant to the exercise of warrants or
rights relating to such securities.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (4) | cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities or high-quality debt securities that mature in one year
or less from the date of investment.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The regulations defining and interpreting qualifying assets may
change over time. We may adjust our investment focus as needed to comply with and/or take advantage of any regulatory, legislative, administrative or judicial actions in this area.

We look through our subsidiaries to the underlying holdings (considered together with portfolio assets held outside of our
subsidiaries) for purposes of determining compliance with the 70% qualifying assets requirement of the 1940 Act. On a consolidated basis, at least 70% of our assets will be eligible assets.

Managerial Assistance to Portfolio Companies

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 in (1) or (2) above. However, in order to count portfolio securities as qualifying assets for the purpose of the 70% test, the BDC must either control the issuer of the
securities or must offer to make available to the issuer of the securities significant managerial assistance; except that, when 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



30

##### Index to Financial Statements

assistance. Making available managerial assistance means any arrangement whereby the BDC, through its directors, officers or employees, offers to provide, and, if accepted, does so provide,
significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company.

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, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less from the date of investment, which we refer to, collectively, as temporary
investments, so that 70% of our assets are qualifying assets or temporary investments. Typically, we invest in U.S. Treasury bills or in repurchase agreements, so long as the 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 that 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, in order to qualify as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we do not intend to enter into repurchase agreements with a single counterparty in excess of this limit. Our Adviser monitors the creditworthiness of any
counterparties with which we enter into repurchase agreement transactions.

Senior Securities

We are permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to our
common stock if our asset coverage, as that term is 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 make provisions to prohibit any
distribution to our stockholders or the repurchase of such securities or shares unless we meet the applicable asset coverage ratios at the time of the distribution or repurchase. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value of our total assets
for temporary or emergency purposes without regard to asset coverage. We consolidate our financial results with all of our wholly owned subsidiaries for financial reporting purposes and measure our compliance with the leverage test applicable to
BDCs under the 1940 Act on a consolidated basis. For a discussion of the risks associated with leverage, see Risk FactorsRelating to our Business and StructureRegulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability
to, and the way in which we, raise additional capital. As a BDC, the necessity of raising additional capital may expose us to risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage.

Codes of Ethics

We and our Adviser have each adopted a code of ethics pursuant to Rule 17j-1 under
the 1940 Act that establishes procedures for personal investments and restricts certain personal securities transactions. Personnel subject to each code may invest in securities for their personal investment accounts, including securities that may
be purchased or held by us, so long as such investments are made in accordance with the codes requirements. You may read and copy the code of ethics at the SECs Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You may obtain information on the
operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (202) 551-8090. In addition, each code of ethics is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to this annual report on Form 10-K, and is
available on the EDGAR Database on the SECs website at www.sec.gov. You may also obtain copies of each code of ethics, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at the following e-mail
address: publicinfo@sec.gov, or by writing the SECs Public Reference Section, 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549.

Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures

We have delegated our proxy voting responsibility to our Adviser. The proxy voting policies and procedures of our Adviser are
set out below. The guidelines are reviewed periodically by our Adviser and our directors who are not interested persons, and, accordingly, are subject to change.

Introduction

As an investment adviser registered under the Advisers Act, our Adviser has a fiduciary duty to act solely in our best
interests. As part of this duty, our Adviser recognizes that it must vote our securities in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in our best interests.

Our Advisers policies and procedures for voting proxies for its investment advisory clients are intended to comply with
Section 206 of, and Rule 206(4)-6 under, the Advisers Act.

Proxy Policies

Our Adviser votes proxies relating to any of our portfolio equity securities in what it perceives to be the best
interest of our stockholders. Our Adviser reviews on a case-by-case basis each proposal submitted to a stockholder vote to determine its effect on any of the portfolio
equity securities we hold. In most cases our Adviser will vote in favor of proposals that our Adviser believes are likely to increase the value of any of the portfolio equity securities we hold. Although our Adviser generally votes against proposals
that may have a negative effect on any of our portfolio equity securities, our Adviser may vote for such a proposal if there exist compelling long-term reasons to do so.

Our proxy voting decisions are made by our Advisers senior investment team. To ensure that our Advisers vote is
not the product of a conflict of interest, our Adviser requires that (1) anyone involved in the decision-making process disclose to our Chief Compliance Officer any potential conflict that he or she is
aware of and any contact that he or she has had with any interested party regarding a proxy vote and (2) employees involved in the decision-making process or vote administration are prohibited from
revealing how our Adviser intends to vote on a proposal in order to reduce any attempted influence from interested parties. Where conflicts of interest may be present, our Adviser discloses such conflicts to us, including our independent directors
and may request guidance from us on how to vote such proxies.

Proxy Voting Records

You may obtain information without charge about how our Adviser voted proxies by making a written request for proxy voting
information to: 2755 Sand Hill Road, Suite 150, Menlo Park, California 94025, Attention: Investor Relations.

Privacy
Principles

We are committed to maintaining the privacy of our stockholders and to safeguarding their nonpublic
personal information. The following information is provided to help you understand what personal information we collect, how we protect that information and why, in certain cases, we may share information with select other parties.

Generally, we do not receive any nonpublic personal information relating to our stockholders, although certain nonpublic
personal information of our stockholders may become available to us. We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our stockholders or former stockholders to anyone, except as permitted by law or as are necessary in order to service
stockholder accounts (for example, to a transfer agent or third-party administrator).

We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about our stockholders to employees of our Adviser and its affiliates
with a legitimate business need for the information. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards designed to protect the nonpublic personal information of our stockholders.

Other

Under the 1940 Act, we are 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 protecting any director or officer against any liability to us or our stockholders arising from willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard
of the duties involved in the conduct of such persons office.

We and our Adviser are each required to adopt and
implement written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violation of relevant federal securities laws, review these policies and procedures annually for their adequacy and the effectiveness of their implementation, and designate a
Chief Compliance Officer to be responsible for administering these policies and procedures.

We are prohibited under the
1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, the SEC. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding voting
securities will be our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act and we are generally prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such affiliate without the prior approval of our independent directors. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain
joint transactions with certain of our affiliates, which could include concurrent investments in the same company, without prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, the SEC. We are prohibited from buying or selling
any security from or to any person that controls us or who owns more than 25% of our voting securities or certain of that persons affiliates, or entering into prohibited joint transactions with such persons, absent the prior approval of the
SEC. As a result of these restrictions, we may be prohibited from buying or selling any security (other than any security of which we are the issuer) from or to any company that is advised or managed by TPC, our Adviser or their affiliates without
the prior approval of the SEC, which may limit the scope of investment opportunities that would otherwise be available to us.

In the future, we may co-invest with investment funds, accounts and vehicles managed
by TPC where doing so is consistent with our investment strategy as well as applicable law and SEC staff interpretations. We generally are only permitted to co-invest with such investment funds, accounts and
vehicles where the only term that is negotiated is price. However, we, TPC and our Adviser intend to file an exemptive application with the SEC to permit greater flexibility to negotiate the terms of
co-investments with investment funds, accounts and investment vehicles managed by TPC in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as
regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. Even when we file this exemptive application, there can be no assurance that we will receive exemptive relief from the SEC to permit us to co-invest with
investment funds, accounts and investment vehicles managed by TPC where terms other than price are negotiated.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act

The Sarbanes-Oxley
Act imposes a wide variety of regulatory requirements on publicly held companies and their insiders. Many of these requirements affect us. For example:



| | (1) | pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer must certify the accuracy of the financial statements contained in our periodic reports;
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | pursuant to Item 307 under Regulation S-K, our periodic reports must disclose our conclusions
about the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (3) | pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management must prepare an annual report regarding
its assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which must be audited by our independent registered public accounting firm; and
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (4) | pursuant to Item 308 of Regulation S-K and
Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our periodic reports must disclose whether there were significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly
affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires us to
review our current policies and procedures to determine whether we comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the regulations promulgated under such act. We continue to monitor our compliance with all regulations
that are adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and will take actions necessary to ensure that we comply with that act.

Emerging Growth Company

We are an emerging growth company as defined in the JOBS Act and we are eligible to take advantage of certain specified reduced
disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a
nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We expect to remain an emerging growth company for up to five years following the completion of our initial public
offering or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) December 31 of the fiscal year that we become a large accelerated filer as defined
in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the
last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter and we have been publicly reporting for at least 12 months or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in
non-convertible debt securities during the preceding three-year period. In addition, we have irrevocably opted-out of the
extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, we comply with new or revised accounting standards on the same time frames as other public
companies that are not emerging growth companies.

|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

You should carefully consider these risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this annual report on Form 10-K and
other reports and documents filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The risks set out below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or not presently deemed material by us
may also impair our operations and performance. If any of the following events occur, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, our net asset value and the trading price
of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment The risk factors presented below are those we believe to be the principal risk factors associated with our company given our investment objectives, investment policies
and capital structure.

Relating to our Business and Structure

We may not be able to operate our business successfully or generate sufficient revenue to make or sustain distributions to our
stockholders.

We were formed in June 2013. Our Adviser was formed in August 2013. We commenced operations in March
2014. As a result, we are subject to many of the business risks and uncertainties associated with recently formed businesses, including the risk that we will not achieve our investment objective and that the value of your investment could decline
substantially. As a BDC, we are subject to the regulatory requirements of the SEC, in addition to the specific regulatory requirements applicable to BDCs under the 1940 Act and RICs under the Code. In addition, our Adviser is subject to the
regulatory requirements applicable to investment advisers under the Advisory Act. We and our Adviser have limited experience operating or advising under this regulatory framework, and we may incur substantial additional costs, and expend significant
time or other resources operating under this regulatory framework.

We are dependent upon our executive officers and our
Advisers senior investment team and members of its Investment Committee, in particular, Messrs. Labe and Srivastava, for our success and upon our Advisers access to such individuals pursuant to the Staffing Agreement. If our Adviser
were to lose such access, our ability to achieve our investment objective could be significantly harmed.

Our
Adviser has entered into the Staffing Agreement with TPC. Pursuant to the Staffing Agreement, TPC has made and will continue to make, subject to the terms of the Staffing Agreement, its investment and portfolio management and monitoring teams
available to our Adviser. We believe that the Staffing Agreement (i) provides us with access to deal flow generated by TPC in the ordinary course of its business; (ii) provides us with access to TPCs investment professionals,
including its senior investment team led by Messrs. Labe and Srivastava, and TPCs non-investment employees; and (iii) commits certain key senior members of TPCs Investment Committee to
serve as members of our Advisers Investment Committee. TPC is obligated under the Staffing Agreement to allocate investment opportunities among its affiliates fairly and equitably over time in accordance with its allocation policy. We depend
on the diligence, skill and network of business contacts of our Advisers senior investment team and our executive officers to achieve our investment objective. We cannot assure you that TPC will fulfill its obligations under the Staffing
Agreement or its allocation policy. Further, the Staffing Agreement may be terminated with 60 days prior written notice, and we cannot assure you that the Staffing Agreement will not be terminated by TPC or that our Adviser will continue
to have access to the professionals and Investment Committee of TPC or its information and deal flow. The loss of any such access would limit our ability to achieve our investment objective and operate as we anticipate. This could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our business model depends, in part, upon TPCs relationships with a select group of
leading venture capital investors. Any inability of TPC to maintain or develop these relationships, or the failure of these relationships to result in referrals of investment opportunities for us, could materially and adversely affect our business.

We depend, in part, upon TPC to maintain industry relationships, including with a select group of leading venture
capital investors, and we utilize these relationships to source and identify potential investment opportunities, although this group of leading venture capital investors, which may be modified from time to time, is not obligated to provide us with
referrals for investment opportunities. If TPC fails to maintain or develop such relationships, or if we fall out of favor with such venture capital investors, it could decrease our access to these investors or their support and we may not be able
to grow our investment portfolio. We can offer no assurance that these relationships will result in any investment opportunities for us in the future. In addition, any harm to the reputation of TPC and/or its select group of leading venture capital
investors or their relationships could decrease our deal flow and the outlook of our investments which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our success depends on the ability of TPC and our Adviser to attract and retain qualified personnel in a competitive environment.

Our growth requires that TPC and our Adviser retain and attract new investment and administrative personnel in a
competitive market. Their ability to attract and retain personnel with the requisite credentials, experience and skills depends on several factors including, but not limited to, their and our reputations and their ability to offer competitive wages,
benefits and professional growth opportunities. Many of the entities with whom they compete for experienced personnel, including investment funds, have greater resources than they have.

We may not replicate the historical results achieved by TPC or members of its senior investment team.

Our focus in making investments differs from that of TPC. For example, while TPCs portfolio consists primarily of
providing financing to venture capital-backed companies across all stages of their development, including the venture growth stage, we pursue an investment strategy that is focused primarily on the venture
growth stage. The profile and underwriting characteristics of an early stage venture capital-backed company are very different from those of a later stage venture
capital-backed company and/or those of a venture growth stage company. Furthermore, within venture growth stage companies, the uses, structures and value propositions of debt financing vary considerably among
companies and industries and require a high degree of venture lending and leasing expertise and technology, life sciences and other high growth industries knowledge, specialization and flexibility from a lender. As a result, we cannot assure you
that we will replicate the historical results achieved by TPC or members of its senior investment team and we caution you that our investment returns could be substantially lower than the returns achieved by them in prior periods.

The nature of our approach to our business may lead to volatility and variability from period to period with respect to new
originations. Our financial condition and results of operations depends upon our ability to effectively manage credit, deploy capital and grow our business.

Our ability to achieve our investment objective depends on our Advisers ability to manage our business and to grow our
investments and earnings. This depends on our Advisers ability to identify, invest in and monitor companies that meet our underwriting criteria. Furthermore, our Adviser may choose to slow or accelerate new business originations depending on
market conditions, rate of investment of TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors, our Advisers knowledge, expertise and experience, and other market dynamics. The achievement of our investment objective on a cost-effective basis depends upon our Advisers execution of our investment process, its ability to provide competent, attentive and efficient services to us and, to a lesser extent, our access to financing on
acceptable terms. Accomplishing this result on a cost-effective basis is largely a function of our Advisers origination capabilities, management of the investment process, ability to provide



36

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

efficient services and access to financing sources on acceptable terms. Our Advisers senior investment team also has substantial responsibilities in connection with the management of
TPCs investment vehicles and business segments. These activities may distract them from servicing new investment opportunities for us or slow our rate of investment. Any failure to manage our business and our future growth effectively could
have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our ability to enter into
transactions with our affiliates and to make investments in venture growth stage companies along with our affiliates is restricted by the 1940 Act which may limit the scope of investment opportunities available to us.

We are prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval
of our independent directors and, in some cases, the SEC. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding voting securities will be our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act. In addition, any venture growth stage company
in which we or TPC or its affiliates own 5% or more of its outstanding voting securities will be our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act. We are generally prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such affiliate without the prior
approval of our independent directors and, in certain cases, the SEC. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain joint transactions with certain of our affiliates, which could include concurrent investments in the same company, without prior
approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, the SEC. We are prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to any person that controls us or who owns more than 25% of our voting securities or certain of that persons
affiliates, or entering into prohibited joint transactions with such persons, absent the prior approval of the SEC. As a result of these restrictions, we may be prohibited from (i) buying or selling any security (other than any security of
which we are the issuer) from or to any company that is advised or managed by TPC or our Adviser or any of their affiliates or in which TPC or our Adviser or any of their affiliates also hold an interest or (ii) modifying any security that we
hold in a company in which TPC or our Adviser or any of their affiliates also hold an interest without the prior approval of the SEC, which may limit our ability to take any action with respect to an existing investment or potential investment
regardless of whether we conclude that the action may be in the best interest of our stockholders.

Our investment
strategy includes investments in secured loans, together with, in many cases, attached equity kickers in the form of warrants, and direct equity investments. TPC also manages, and in the future may manage, other investment funds,
accounts or vehicles that invest or may invest in these investments. Although we are the primary vehicle through which TPC focuses its venture growth stage business, other vehicles sponsored or managed by our Advisers senior investment team
may also invest in venture growth stage companies or may have prior investments outstanding to our borrowers. As a result, members of our Advisers senior investment team and Investment Committee, in their roles at TPC, may face conflicts in
the allocation of investment opportunities among us and other investment vehicles managed by TPC with similar or overlapping investment objectives in a manner that is fair and equitable over time and consistent with TPCs allocation policy.
Generally, when a particular investment would be appropriate for us as well as one or more other investment funds, accounts or vehicles managed by our Advisers senior investment team, such investment is apportioned by our Advisers senior
investment team in accordance with (1) our Advisers internal conflict of interest and allocation policies, (2) the requirements of the Advisers Act and (3) certain restrictions under the 1940 Act regarding co-investments with affiliates. Such apportionment may not be strictly pro rata, depending on the good faith determination of all relevant factors, including differing investment objectives, diversification
considerations and the terms of our or the respective governing documents of such investment funds, accounts or investment vehicles. These procedures could, in certain circumstances, limit whether or not a
co-investment opportunity is available to us, the timing of acquisitions and dispositions of investments, the price paid or received by us for investments or the size of the investment purchased or sold by us.

We have co-invested and, in the future, may
co-invest with investment funds, accounts and vehicles managed by TPC where doing so is consistent with our investment strategy as well as applicable law and SEC staff interpretations. We generally are only
permitted to co-invest with such investment funds, accounts and



37

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

vehicles where the only term that is negotiated is price and generally in accordance with existing and future guidance from the SEC staff. However, we, TPC and our Adviser intend to file an
exemptive application with the SEC to permit greater flexibility to negotiate the terms of co-investments with investment funds, accounts and investment vehicles managed by TPC in a manner consistent with our
investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. There can be no assurance that we will receive exemptive relief from the SEC to permit us to co-invest with investment funds, accounts and investment vehicles managed by TPC where terms other than price are negotiated.

We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities and we may not be able to compete effectively.

Our competitors include both existing and newly formed equity and debt focused public and private funds, other BDCs, investment
banks, venture-oriented banks, commercial financing companies and, to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity and hedge funds. One or more of our competitors may have or
develop relationships with TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors. We may also be limited in our ability to make an investment pursuant to the restrictions under the 1940 Act to the extent one or more of our affiliates has an
existing investment with such obligor. Additionally, many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than us. For example, we believe some of our competitors may have access
to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which expose them to a wider variety of investments. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not
subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC or to the distribution and other requirements we must satisfy to maintain our qualification as a RIC.

The competitive pressures we face may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows. We do not compete primarily on the financing terms we offer and believe that some competitors make loans with rates that are comparable or lower than our rates. We may lose some investment opportunities if we do not match our
competitors pricing, terms and structure. However, if we match our competitors pricing, terms and structure, we may experience decreased net interest income, lower yields and increased risk of credit loss. As a result of this
competition, we may not be able to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities from time to time, and we may not be able to identify and make investments that are consistent with our investment objective.

We will be subject to corporate-level income tax and may default under the Credit Facility if we
are unable to qualify or maintain our qualification as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

To qualify as a
RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, we must meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and distribution requirements. The distribution requirement for a
RIC generally is satisfied if we distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net realized short-term capital gains in excess of net realized long-term capital
losses, if any, to our stockholders on an annual basis. Because we incur debt, we are subject to certain asset coverage ratio requirements under the 1940 Act and financial covenants under loan and credit agreements that could, under certain
circumstances, restrict us from making distributions necessary to qualify as a RIC. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify as a RIC and, thus, may be subject to
corporate-level income tax. To qualify as a RIC, we must also meet certain asset diversification requirements at the end of each calendar quarter. Failure to meet these tests may result in our having to
dispose of certain investments quickly in order to prevent the loss of our qualification as a RIC. Because most of our investments are in private companies, any such dispositions may be made at disadvantageous prices and may result in substantial
losses. If we fail to qualify as a RIC for any reason and become subject to corporate income tax, the resulting corporate income taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of funds available for distributions to our stockholders and
the amount of funds available for new investments.

We may need to raise additional capital to grow. If additional capital is not available or
not available on favorable terms, our ability to grow will be impaired.

We may need additional capital to fund new
investments or unfunded commitments and grow our portfolio of investments. We intend to access the capital markets periodically to issue debt or equity securities or borrow from financial institutions in order to obtain such additional capital.
Unfavorable economic conditions could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us. In addition, there may be fewer lenders familiar with, or willing to provide
credit to, firms in our industry. The availability of debt from lenders may be more limited than it is for firms that are not in our industry due to the credit profile of our targeted borrowers or the structure and risk profile of our unrated loans.
As a result, we may have difficulty raising additional capital in order to fund our loans and grow our business.

In order
to maintain our qualification as a RIC, we will be required to distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net realized short-term capital gains in excess of net realized long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders. As a result, these earnings will not be available to fund new investments. As a BDC, we generally are required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total
borrowings and other senior securities, which includes all of our borrowings and any preferred stock that we may issue in the future, of at least 200%. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow. This limitation may prevent us from
incurring debt and require us to raise additional equity at a time when it may be disadvantageous for us to do so. We cannot assure you that debt and equity financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all, and debt financings may be
restricted by the terms of any of our outstanding borrowings.

In addition, shares of
closed-end investment companies have recently traded at discounts to their net asset values. If our common stock trades below its net asset value, we will not be able to issue additional shares of our common
stock at its market price without first obtaining the approval for such issuance from our stockholders and our independent directors. If additional funds are not available to us, we could be forced to curtail or cease new lending and investment
activities and our net asset value could decline.

A reduction in the availability of new capital or an inability on our
part to access the capital markets successfully could limit our ability to grow our business and execute our business strategy fully and could decrease our earnings, if any, which would have a material and adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.

We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before, or
without, receiving cash representing such income.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, in certain circumstances,
we may be required to recognize taxable income prior to when we receive cash, such as the accrual of end-of-term payments, payment-in-kind, or PIK, interest payments and/or original issue discount, or OID. Our end-of-term
payments are contractual and fixed interest payments due at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed percentage of the original principal balance of the loan. OID decreases our loan balance by an amount equal to the
cost basis of the upfront warrants received and certain capitalized fees we receive in connection with our loan and is recognized by us as non-cash income over the life of the secured loan. Our secured loans
generally include an end-of-term payment and/or PIK interest payment. Such payments, which could be significant relative to our overall investment activities are
included in income before we receive any corresponding cash payment. We are also required to include in income certain other amounts that we will not receive in cash, including OID.

Since, in these cases we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have
difficulty meeting the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net realized short-term capital gains in excess of net realized long-term
capital losses, if any, to maintain our qualification as a RIC and to avoid a 4% U.S. federal excise tax on certain of our undistributed income. In such a case, we may have to sell some of our investments at times we would not consider advantageous,
raise additional

debt or equity capital or reduce new investment originations to meet these distribution requirements. If we are not able to obtain sufficient cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify as a
RIC and thus be subject to corporate-level income tax.

You may not receive distributions or
our distributions may not grow over time.

We intend to make distributions on a quarterly basis to our stockholders
out of assets legally available for distribution. We cannot assure you that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions or
year-to-year increases in cash distributions. Our ability to pay distributions might be materially and adversely affected by the impact of one or more of the risk
factors described in this annual report on Form 10-K. Due to the asset coverage test applicable to us under the 1940 Act as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. All distributions will be made at the discretion of our Board
and will depend on our earnings, financial condition, maintenance of RIC status, compliance with applicable BDC, SBA regulations (if applicable) and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant from time to time. We cannot assure you that we
will make distributions to our stockholders in the future.

Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to, and
the way in which we, raise additional capital. As a BDC, the necessity of raising additional capital may expose us to risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage.

We may issue debt securities or preferred stock and/or borrow money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer
to collectively as senior securities, up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted as a BDC to issue senior securities in amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as
defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% of our gross assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, after each issuance of senior securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy
this test. If that happens, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous to us in order to repay a portion of our indebtedness. Also, any amounts that we use to service our indebtedness
would not be available for distributions to our common stockholders. If we issue senior securities, we will be exposed to typical risks associated with leverage, including an increased risk of loss.

We are not generally able to issue and sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share. We may, however, sell
our common stock or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below then-current net asset value per share of our common stock if our Board determines that such sale is in our best
interests, and if our stockholders approve such sale. In any such case, the price at which our securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price that, in the determination of our Board, closely approximates the market value of such
securities (less any distributing commission or discount). If we raise additional funds by issuing common stock or senior securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common stock, then the percentage ownership of our stockholders at that
time will decrease and you may experience dilution.

Pending legislation may allow us to incur additional leverage.

As a BDC, under the 1940 Act we generally are not permitted to incur indebtedness unless immediately after such borrowing we
have an asset coverage for total borrowings of at least 200% (i.e., the amount of debt may not exceed 50% of the value of our assets). Recent legislation introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, if eventually passed, would modify this
section of the 1940 Act and increase the amount of debt that BDCs may incur by modifying the asset coverage percentage from 200% to 150%. As a result, we may be able to incur additional indebtedness in the future and therefore your risk of an
investment in us may increase.

We finance certain of our investments with borrowed money, which magnifies the potential for gain or
loss on amounts invested and increases the risk of investing in us.

We finance certain of our investments with
borrowed money when we expect the return on our investment to exceed the cost of borrowing. The use of leverage magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested.

The use of leverage is generally considered a speculative investment technique and increases the risks associated with investing in shares of our common stock. Lenders will have fixed dollar
claims on our assets that are superior to the claims of our common stockholders and we would expect such lenders to seek recovery against our assets in the event of a default. We may pledge up to 100% of our assets or the assets of a subsidiary
under the terms of any debt instruments we may enter into with lenders. In addition, under the terms of the Credit Facility and any borrowing facility or other debt instrument we may enter into in the future, we are or will likely be required to use
the net proceeds of any investments that we sell to repay a portion of the amount borrowed under such facility or instrument before applying such net proceeds to any other uses. If the value of our assets decreases, leveraging would cause our net
asset value to decline more sharply than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged, thereby magnifying losses, potentially triggering mandatory debt payments or asset contributions under the Credit Facility or eliminating our stake in a leveraged
investment. Similarly, any decrease in our revenue or income will cause our net income to decline more sharply than it would have had we not borrowed. Such a decline would also negatively affect our ability to make distributions with respect to our
common stock. Our ability to service any debt depends largely on our financial performance and is subject to prevailing economic conditions and competitive pressures.

As a BDC, we generally are required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total borrowings and other senior securities,
which include all of our borrowings (other than potential leverage in future Small Business Investment Company, or SBIC, subsidiaries, should we receive an SBIC license(s), subject to exemptive relief) and any preferred stock that we may
issue in the future, of at least 200%. If this ratio declines below 200%, we will not be able to incur additional debt and could be required to sell a portion of our investments to repay some debt when it is otherwise disadvantageous for us to do
so. This could have a material adverse effect on our operations, and we may not be able to make distributions. The amount of leverage that we employ depends on our Advisers and our Boards assessment of market and other factors at the
time of any proposed borrowing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain credit at all or on terms acceptable to us.

In addition, the Credit Facility we entered into and any debt facilities we may enter into in the future impose or may impose
financial and operating covenants that restrict our business activities, including limitations that hinder our ability to finance additional loans and investments or to make the distributions required to maintain our qualification as a RIC under the
Code.

We may default under the Credit Facility or any future indebtedness or be unable to amend, repay or refinance any such
facility on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In the event we default under the Credit Facility or any future indebtedness or are unable to amend, repay or refinance any
such future indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, our business could be materially and adversely affected as we may be forced to sell all or a portion of our investments quickly and prematurely at what may be disadvantageous
prices to us in order to meet our outstanding payment obligations and/or support working capital requirements under the Credit Facility or any future indebtedness, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows. In addition, following any such default, the administrative agent under the Credit Facility could assume control of the disposition of any or all of our assets or restrict our utilization of any indebtedness, including
the selection of such assets to be disposed and the timing of such disposition, including decisions with respect to our warrants, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Events of default under the Credit Facility include, among other things, (i) a payment default; (ii) a change of control; (iii) bankruptcy; (iv) a covenant default; and (v) our failure to maintain compliance with RIC
provisions at all times.

Because we use debt to finance certain of our investments, if market interest rates were to
increase, our cost of capital could increase, which could reduce our net income. In addition, if the Credit Facility were to become unavailable, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Because we borrow money to finance certain of our investments, including under the Credit Facility,
our net income will depend, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest those funds. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates would not have
a material adverse effect on our net income in the event we use debt to finance our investments. In periods of rising interest rates, our cost of funds would increase, which could reduce our net income. In addition, if the Credit Facility were to
become unavailable to us and attractive alternative financing sources were not available, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, a rise in the general level of interest rates typically leads to higher interest rates applicable to our secured
loans. Accordingly, an increase in interest rates may result in an increase of our income and, as a result, an increase in the incentive fee payable to our Adviser.

Provisions in the Credit Facility or any future indebtedness may limit our discretion in operating our business.

The Credit Facility is, and any future indebtedness may be, backed by all or a portion of our assets on which the lenders may
have a security interest. We may pledge up to 100% of our assets or the assets of our Financing Subsidiary and may grant a security interest in all of our assets under the terms of any debt instrument we enter into with lenders. Any security
interests that we grant will be set forth in a security agreement and evidenced by the filing of financing statements by the agent for the lenders. Any restrictive provision or negative covenant in the Credit Facility, including diversification and
eligibility requirements, or any of our future indebtedness limits or may limit our operating discretion, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. A failure to comply with the
restrictive provisions or negative covenants in the Credit Facility or any of our future indebtedness would or may result in an event of default and/or restrict our ability to control the disposition of our assets and our utilization of any
indebtedness. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsContractual Obligations.

Adverse developments in the credit markets may impair our ability to enter into any other future borrowing facility.

During the economic downturn in the United States that began in mid-2007, many
commercial banks and other financial institutions stopped lending or significantly curtailed their lending activity. In addition, in an effort to stem losses and reduce their exposure to segments of the economy deemed to be high risk, some financial
institutions limited refinancing and loan modification transactions and reviewed the terms of existing facilities to identify bases for accelerating the maturity of existing lending facilities. If these conditions recur, it may be difficult for us
to enter into a new borrowing facility, obtain other financing to finance the growth of our investments or refinance any outstanding indebtedness on acceptable economic terms or at all.

If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could fail to qualify as a BDC or be precluded from
investing according to our current business strategy.

As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than
qualifying assets unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such acquisition, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets. See BusinessRegulation.

We believe that most of the investments that we may acquire in the future will constitute qualifying assets. However, we may
be precluded from investing in what we believe to be attractive investments if such

investments are not qualifying assets for purposes of the 1940 Act. If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could violate the 1940 Act provisions
applicable to BDCs. As a result of such violation, specific rules under the 1940 Act could require us to dispose of investments at inappropriate times in order to come into compliance with the 1940 Act. If we need to dispose of such investments
quickly, it could be difficult to dispose of such investments on favorable terms or at all. We may not be able to find a buyer for such investments and, even if we do find a buyer, we may have to sell the investments at a substantial loss. Any such
outcomes would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

If we do
not maintain our status as a BDC, we would be subject to regulation as a registered closed-end investment company under the 1940 Act. As a registered closed-end
investment company, we would be subject to substantially more regulatory restrictions under the 1940 Act, which would significantly decrease our operating flexibility.

Our investment portfolio is recorded at fair value, with our Board having final responsibility for overseeing, reviewing and approving,
in good faith, its estimate of fair value and, as a result, there is uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments.

Most of our investments take the form of secured loans, warrants and direct equity that are not publicly traded. The fair value
of loans and other investments that are not publicly traded may not be readily determinable, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board. Most, if not all, of our investments (other than cash and cash
equivalents) are classified as Level 3 under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 157, Fair Value Measurement, or SFAS 157 (ASC Topic 820). This means that our valuations are based on unobservable inputs and our own
assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability in question. Inputs into the determination of the fair value of our investments require significant management judgment or estimation. We retain the services of one or more
independent service providers to review the valuation of these loans and other investments. The types of factors that our Board takes into account in determining the fair value of our investments generally include, as appropriate, such factors as
yield, maturity and measures of credit quality, the enterprise value of the company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, our assessment of the
support of their venture capital investors, the markets in which the company does business, comparisons to similar publicly traded companies and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private companies, are
inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates, our determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these loans and other investments
existed. Our net asset value could be materially and adversely affected if our determinations regarding the fair value of our loans and other investments were materially higher than the values that we ultimately realize upon the disposal of such
loans and other investments.

We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results.

We could experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a number of factors, including our originations and
underwriting processes, the interest rate payable on the secured loans we acquire, any prepayment made on our secured loans, the timing and amount of any warrant or equity returns, the timing of any draw downs requested by our borrowers, the level
of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets and general economic conditions. In light of these factors, results for any
period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

We are an emerging growth company under the
JOBS Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are and we will remain an emerging growth company as defined in the JOBS Act for up to five years following the completion
of our initial public offering or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year

in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) December 31 of the fiscal year that we become a large accelerated filer as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by
non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter and we have been publicly reporting for at least 12 months or (iii) the date
on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the preceding three-year period. For so long as we remain an emerging growth
company we are eligible to take advantage of certain specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to,
not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, or the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of
any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, we have irrevocably opted-out of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, we comply with new or revised accounting standards on the same time frames as other public companies that are not emerging growth
companies. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we will rely on some or all of these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active
trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

Because of the exemptions from various
reporting requirements provided to us as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act and because we will have an extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards, we may be less attractive to investors
and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it. Investors may be unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry if they believe that our financial accounting is not as transparent as other
companies in our industry. If we are unable to raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our
financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, stockholders could lose confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.

Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and, together
with adequate disclosure controls and procedures, are designed to prevent fraud. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation could cause us to fail to meet our reporting
obligations. In addition, any testing by us conducted in connection with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or the subsequent testing by our independent registered public accounting firm (when
undertaken, as noted below), may reveal deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses or that may require prospective or retroactive changes to our consolidated financial statements or
identify other areas for further attention or improvement. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors and lenders to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our
common stock.

We are required to disclose changes made in our internal controls and procedures on a quarterly basis and
our management is required to assess the effectiveness of these controls annually. However, for as long as we are an emerging growth company under the recently enacted JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to
attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years following the completion of our initial public offering. An independent assessment
of the effectiveness of our internal controls could detect problems that our managements assessment might not. Undetected material weaknesses in our internal controls could lead to financial statement restatements and require us to incur the
expense of remediation.

Changes in laws or regulations governing our operations may adversely affect our business
or cause us to alter our business strategy.

We are subject to regulation by laws at the U.S. federal, state and
local levels. These laws and regulations, as well as their interpretation, may change from time to time, and new laws, regulations and interpretations may also come into effect. Any such new or changed laws or regulations or any new or changed
interpretations of existing laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Additionally, changes to the laws and regulations governing our operations related to permitted investments may cause us to
alter our investment strategy in order to avail ourselves of new or different opportunities. Such changes could result in material differences to the strategies and plans set forth in this annual report on
Form 10-K and may shift our investment focus to other types of investments in which our Advisers senior investment team may have little or no expertise or experience. Any such changes, if they
occur, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our Board may change
our investment objective, operating policies and strategies without prior notice or stockholder approval, the effects of which may be adverse.

Our Board has the authority, except as otherwise provided in the 1940 Act, to modify or waive certain of our operating policies
and strategies without prior notice and without stockholder approval. However, absent stockholder approval, we may not change the nature of our business so as to cease to be, or withdraw our election as, a BDC. We cannot predict the effect any
changes to our current operating policies and strategies would have on our business, operating results and the market price of our common stock. Nevertheless, any such changes could materially and adversely affect our business and impair our ability
to make distributions to our stockholders.

Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law and of our charter and bylaws could
deter takeover attempts and have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

The Maryland General
Corporation Law, our charter and our bylaws contain provisions that may discourage, delay or make more difficult a change in control or the removal of our directors. We are subject to the Maryland Business Combination Act, or the Business
Combination Act, the application of which is subject to and may not conflict with any applicable requirements of the 1940 Act. Our Board has adopted a resolution exempting from the Business Combination Act any business combination between us
and any other person, subject to prior approval of such business combination by our Board, including approval by a majority of our directors who are not interested persons as such term is defined in the 1940 Act. If the resolution
exempting business combinations is repealed or our Board does not approve a business combination, the Business Combination Act may discourage third-parties from trying to acquire control of us and increase the
difficulty of consummating such an offer. Our bylaws exempt from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, or the Control Share Acquisition Act, acquisitions of our common stock by any person. If we amend our bylaws to repeal the
exemption from the Control Share Acquisition Act, the Control Share Acquisition Act also may make it more difficult for a third-party to obtain control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating such an
offer. However, we will amend our bylaws to be subject to the Control Share Acquisition Act only if our Board determines that it would be in our best interests and if the SEC staff does not object to our determination that our being subject to the
Control Share Acquisition Act does not conflict with the 1940 Act. The SEC staff has issued informal guidance setting forth its position that certain provisions of the Control Share Acquisition Act would, if implemented, violate Section 18(i)
of the 1940 Act.

Our charter and bylaws contain other provisions that may make it difficult for a third-party to obtain control of us, including supermajority vote requirements for business transactions that are not approved by a majority of our continuing directors, provisions of our charter
classifying our Board in three classes serving staggered three-year terms, and provisions of our charter authorizing our Board to classify or reclassify shares of our stock in one or more classes or series and
to cause the issuance of additional shares of our stock, and to amend our

charter, without stockholder approval, to increase or decrease the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have authority to issue. These provisions, as well as other provisions
of our charter and bylaws, may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change in control that might otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.

Our Adviser or our Administrator can resign upon 60 days notice and we may not be able to find a suitable replacement within
that time, or at all, resulting in a disruption in our operations that could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our Adviser has the right under the Investment Advisory Agreement to resign at any time upon 60 days written notice,
whether we have found a replacement or not. Similarly, our Administrator has the right under the Administration Agreement to resign at any time upon 60 days written notice, whether we have found a replacement or not. In addition, our
Administrator has entered into a sub-administration agreement with Vastardis Fund Services LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Conifer Financial Services LLC) to provide certain sub-administrative services to us on behalf of our Administrator. If our Adviser, our Administrator or our sub-administrator were to resign, we may not be able to find a new
investment adviser, administrator or sub-administrator or hire internal management with similar expertise and ability to provide the same or equivalent services on acceptable terms within 60 days, or at
all. If we are unable to do so quickly, our operations are likely to experience a disruption, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as well as our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders are likely to be materially
and adversely affected and the market price of our shares may decline. In addition, the coordination of our internal management and investment or administrative activities, as applicable, is likely to suffer if we are unable to identify and reach an
agreement with a single institution or group of executives having the expertise possessed by our Adviser, our Administrator and our sub-administrator. Even if we are able to retain comparable management,
whether internal or external, the integration of such management and their lack of familiarity with our investment objective may result in additional costs and time delays that may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows.

We are highly dependent on information systems and systems failures could significantly disrupt our
business, which may, in turn, negatively affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

Our business is highly dependent on the communications and information systems of our Adviser. In addition, certain of these
systems are provided to our Adviser by third-party service providers. Any failure or interruption of such systems, including as a result of the termination of an agreement with any such third-party service provider, could cause delays or other problems in our activities. This, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and negatively affect the market price of our common
stock and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

We incur significant costs as a result of being a publicly traded
company.

As a publicly traded company, we incur legal, accounting and other expenses, including costs associated
with the periodic reporting requirements applicable to a company whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, as well as additional corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other rules implemented by the SEC.

If we are unable to manage our
growth, our results of operations could suffer.

Rapid growth of our portfolio would require expanded portfolio
monitoring, increased personnel, expanded operational and financial systems and new and expanded control procedures. Our Adviser may be unable to attract sufficient qualified personnel or successfully manage expanded operations. As our portfolio
expands, we may periodically experience constraints that would adversely affect our Advisers ability to identify and capitalize on investment opportunities, conduct a thorough and efficient diligence and credit analysis, close

financing transactions in a timely fashion and/or effectively monitor our portfolio companies. Failure to manage growth effectively could materially and adversely affect our financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.

Relating to our Conflicts of Interest

There are potential conflicts of interest that could negatively affect our investment returns.

Our investment strategy includes investments in secured loans to companies, together with, in many cases, attached equity
kickers in the form of warrants, and direct equity investments. TPC also manages, and in the future may manage, other investment funds, accounts or vehicles that invest or may invest in these companies. Although we are the primary
vehicle through which TPC focuses its venture growth stage business, subject to its allocation policy and applicable law, other vehicles sponsored or managed by our Advisers senior investment team may also invest in venture growth stage
companies or may have prior investments outstanding to our borrowers. As a result, members of our Advisers senior investment team and the Investment Committee, in their roles at TPC, may face conflicts in the allocation of investment
opportunities among us and other investment vehicles managed by TPC with similar or overlapping investment objectives in a manner that is fair and equitable over time and consistent with TPCs allocation policy. Generally, when a particular
investment would be appropriate for us as well as one or more other investment funds, accounts or vehicles managed by our Advisers senior investment team, such investment will be apportioned by our Advisers senior investment team in
accordance with (1) our Advisers internal conflict of interest and allocation policies, (2) the requirements of the Advisers Act and (3) certain restrictions under the 1940 Act regarding
co-investments with affiliates. Such apportionment may not be strictly pro rata, depending on the good faith determination of all relevant factors, including differing investment objectives,
diversification considerations and the terms of our or the respective governing documents of such investment funds, accounts or investment vehicles. These procedures could, in certain circumstances, limit whether or not a co-investment opportunity is available to us, the timing of acquisitions and dispositions of investments, the price paid or received by us for investments or the size of the investment purchased or sold by us.

Our Adviser may be subject to conflicts of interest with respect to taking actions regarding many investments in which TPC or its
affiliates also have an interest.

Although our Adviser has adopted a compliance program which includes conflicts
of interest policies and procedures, that are designed to mitigate the potential actual or perceived conflicts between us, on the one hand, and TPC and its affiliates, on the other hand, it may not eliminate all potential conflicts. TPC and its
affiliates may have previously made investments in secured loans, together with, in many cases, attached equity kickers in the form of warrants, and direct equity investments in some of the same venture growth stage companies in which we
expect to invest. In certain of these circumstances, we may have rights and privileges that give us priority over others associated with the issuer, such as TPC or its affiliates. These rights, if exercised, could have a detrimental impact on the
value of the investment made by TPC or its affiliates in the issuer, and as a result our Adviser may be inhibited in taking such action, even if it is in the best interests of our stockholders. In addition, our Adviser may be subject to a conflict
in seeking to make an investment in an issuer in which TPC or its affiliates have already invested, and we may still choose to make such investment, where permissible, subject to the approval of a majority of our directors who have no financial
interest in the investment and a majority of our independent directors. In such a scenario, our Adviser may be influenced to make an investment or take actions in order to protect the interests of TPC or its affiliates in the issuer.

The base management and incentive fee structure we have with our Adviser may create incentives that are not fully aligned with the
interests of our stockholders.

In the course of our investing activities, we pay a base management fee and an
incentive fee to our Adviser. The Investment Advisory Agreement that we entered into with our Adviser provides that these fees are based on the value of our adjusted gross assets. As a result, investors in our common stock will invest on a
gross basis



47

and receive distributions on a net basis after expenses, resulting in a lower rate of return than one might achieve through direct investments. Because these fees are based on the
value of our total assets, our Adviser benefits when we incur debt or use leverage. This fee structure may encourage our Adviser to cause us to borrow money to finance additional investments. Our Board is charged with protecting our interests by
monitoring how our Adviser addresses these and other conflicts of interest associated with its management services and compensation. While our Board does not review or approve each investment decision, borrowing or incurrence of leverage, our
independent directors periodically review our Advisers services and fees as well as its portfolio management decisions and portfolio performance. In connection with these reviews, our independent directors consider whether our fees and
expenses (including those related to leverage) remain appropriate. As a result of this arrangement, our Adviser may from time to time have interests that differ from those of our stockholders, giving rise to a conflict.

Our incentive fee may induce our Adviser to pursue speculative investments and to use leverage when it may be unwise to do so.

The incentive fee payable by us to our Adviser may create an incentive for our Adviser to make investments on our
behalf that are risky or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangement. The way in which the incentive fee payable to our Adviser is determined, which is calculated separately in two components as a
percentage of the interest and other investment income in excess of a quarterly minimum hurdle rate and as a percentage of the realized gain on invested capital, may encourage our Adviser to use leverage or take additional risk to increase the
return on our investments. Under certain circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor the holders of our common stock or of securities convertible into our common stock or warrants representing
rights to purchase our common stock or securities convertible into our common stock. In addition, our Adviser receives the incentive fee based, in part, upon net capital gains realized on our investments. Unlike the portion of the incentive fee
based on investment income, there is no minimum level of gain applicable to the portion of the incentive fee based on net capital gains. As a result, our Adviser may have an incentive to invest more in investments that are likely to result in
capital gains as compared to income producing securities or to advance or delay realizing a gain in order to enhance its incentive fee. This practice could result in our investing in more speculative securities than would otherwise be the case,
which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during economic downturns. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to certain of our debt investments and may accordingly
result in a substantial increase of the amount of incentive fees payable to our investment adviser with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income.

We may pay our Adviser an incentive fee on certain investments that include a deferred interest feature.

We underwrite our loans to generally include an
end-of-term payment, a PIK interest payment and/or OID. Our end-of-term payments are
contractual and fixed interest payments due at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed percentage of the original principal balance of the loan. The portion of our end-of-term payments which equal the difference between our yield-to-maturity and the stated interest rate on the loan are
recognized as non-cash income or OID until they are paid. In addition, in connection with our equity related investments, we may be required to accrue OID which decreases the balance on our secured loans by an
amount equal to the value of the warrants we receive in connection with the applicable secured loan over its lifetime. Under these types of investments, we accrue interest during the life of the loan on the end-of-term payment, PIK interest payment and/or OID but do not receive the cash income from the investment until the end of the term. However, our pre-incentive fee
net investment income, which is used to calculate the income portion of our incentive fee, includes accrued interest. Thus, a portion of this incentive fee is based on income that we have not yet received in cash, such as an end-of-term payment, a PIK interest payment and/or OID.

The valuation process for certain of our investments may create a conflict of interest.

For many of our investments, no market-based price quotation is available. As a result,
our Board determines the fair value of these secured loans, warrants and equity investments in good faith as described

above in Relating to our Business and StructureOur investment portfolio is recorded at fair value, with our Board having final responsibility for overseeing, reviewing and
approving, in good faith, its estimate of fair value and, as a result, there is uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments. In connection with that determination, our Advisers senior investment team provides our Board with
valuation recommendations based upon the most recent and available information, including industry outlook, capitalization, financial statements and projected financial results of each portfolio company. Other than de minimis investments of
less than 1% of our gross assets (up to an aggregate of 10% of our gross assets), the valuation for each investment is reviewed by an independent valuation firm annually and the ultimate determination of fair value is made by our Board, including
our interested directors, and not by such independent valuation firm. The Board, however, may request at its discretion to have such de minimis investments valued by an independent valuation firm. In addition, Messrs. Labe and
Srivastava, each an interested member of our Board, have a material pecuniary interest in our Adviser. The participation of our Advisers senior investment team in our valuation process, and the pecuniary interest in our Adviser by certain
members of our Board, could result in a conflict of interest as our Advisers base management fee is based, in part, on the value of our average adjusted gross assets, and our incentive fee is based, in part, on realized gains and realized and
unrealized losses.

There are conflicts related to our arrangements with TPC and our Administrator.

In February 2014, we entered into the License Agreement with TPC under which TPC granted us a
non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name TriplePoint and the TriplePoint logo. In addition, in February 2014, we entered into the Administration
Agreement with our Administrator pursuant to which we are required to pay our Administrator an amount equal to our allocable portion of our Administrators overhead resulting from its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including
rent and the allocable portion of the cost of our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs. This creates conflicts of interest that our Board will monitor. For example, under the terms of the License
Agreement, we are unable to preclude TPC from licensing or transferring the ownership of the TriplePoint name to third-parties, some of whom may compete against us. Consequently, we are unable to
prevent any damage to goodwill that may occur as a result of the activities of TPC or others. Furthermore, in the event the License Agreement is terminated, we will be required to change our name and cease using TriplePoint as part of
our name. Any of these events could disrupt our recognition in the market place, damage any goodwill we may have generated and otherwise harm our business.

The Investment Advisory Agreement was not negotiated at arms length and may not be as favorable to us as if it had been negotiated
with an unaffiliated third-party.

Pursuant to the terms of the Investment
Advisory Agreement, our Adviser is responsible for sourcing, reviewing and structuring investment opportunities for us, underwriting and performing diligence of our investments and monitoring our investment portfolio on an ongoing basis. The
Investment Advisory Agreement was negotiated between related parties. Consequently, its terms, including fees payable to our Adviser, may not be as favorable to us as if it had been negotiated with an unaffiliated
third-party. In addition, we may choose not to enforce, or to enforce less vigorously, our rights and remedies under the Investment Advisory Agreement because of our desire to maintain our ongoing relationship
with our Adviser.

Our Advisers liability is limited under the Investment Advisory Agreement and we have agreed to indemnify
our Adviser against certain liabilities, which may lead our Adviser to act in a riskier manner on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account.

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Adviser has not assumed any responsibility to us other than to render the services
called for under that agreement. It is not responsible for any action of our Board in following or declining to follow our Advisers advice or recommendations. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Adviser and its professionals and any
person controlling or controlled by our Adviser are not liable to us, any subsidiary of ours, our directors, our stockholders or any subsidiarys stockholders or partners

for acts or omissions performed in accordance with and pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, except those resulting from acts constituting gross negligence, willful misfeasance, bad
faith or reckless disregard of the duties that our Adviser owes to us under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In addition, as part of the Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to indemnify our Adviser and its professionals from and against
any claims or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred, arising out of or in connection with our business and operations or any action taken or omitted on our behalf pursuant to authority granted by the
Investment Advisory Agreement, except where attributable to gross negligence, willful misfeasance, bad faith or reckless disregard of such persons duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement.

Risks Related to our Investments

Our investments are concentrated in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries, including clean technology, some of which
are subject to extensive government regulation which exposes us to the risk of significant loss if any of these industry sectors experiences a downturn.

A consequence of our investment strategy is that our investment returns will be materially and adversely affected if the
companies or the industries we target perform poorly. Beyond the asset diversification requirements to which we will be subject as a RIC and any concentration limitations we have agreed or may agree to as part of the Credit Facility or any future
indebtedness, we do not have fixed guidelines for diversification or limitations on the size of our investments in any one company and our investments could be concentrated in relatively few industries.

Our investments may be subject to extensive regulation by U.S. and foreign federal, state and/or local agencies. Changes in
existing laws, rules or regulations, or judicial or administrative interpretations thereof, or new laws, rules or regulations could have an adverse impact on the business and industries of our portfolio companies. In addition, changes in government
priorities or limitations on government resources could also adversely impact our portfolio companies. We are unable to predict whether any such changes in laws, rules or regulations will occur and, if they do occur, the impact of these changes on
our portfolio companies and our investment returns. Furthermore, if any of our portfolio companies fail to comply with applicable regulations, they could be subject to significant penalties and claims that could materially and adversely affect their
operations. Our portfolio companies may be subject to the expense, delay and uncertainty of the regulatory approval process for their products and, even if approved, these products may not be accepted in the marketplace.

Our portfolio is composed of investments exclusively in the technology, life sciences and other high growth industries,
including clean technology. As a result, a downturn in any of these industries and particularly those in which we are heavily concentrated could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our portfolio may lack diversification among portfolio companies which may subject us to a risk of significant loss if one or more of
these companies defaults on its obligations under any of its debt instruments.

Our portfolio consists of a limited
number of portfolio companies. For example, we held 76 investments in 27 companies as of December 31, 2014, and our four largest portfolio companies represented approximately 37% of our portfolio investments. Beyond the asset
diversification requirements associated with our qualification as a RIC under the Code, we do not have fixed guidelines for diversification, and our investments may be concentrated in relatively few companies. As our portfolio is currently less
diversified than the portfolios of others, we are more susceptible to failure if a single loan fails. Similarly, the aggregate returns we realize may be significantly adversely affected if a small number of investments perform poorly or if we need
to write down the value of any one investment.

Our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows would be negatively affected
if a significant portfolio investment fails to perform as expected.

Our total investment in an individual company
may be significant. As a result, if a significant investment fails to perform as expected, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be more negatively affected and the magnitude of the loss could be more significant than
if we had made smaller investments in more companies.

Our investment strategy includes a primary focus on venture growth stage
companies, which are subject to many risks, including dependence on the need to raise additional capital, volatility, intense competition, shortened product life cycles, changes in regulatory and governmental programs, periodic downturns, below
investment grade ratings, which could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in us.

We invest primarily
in venture growth stage companies, many of which may have narrow product lines and small market shares, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors actions and market conditions, as well as to general economic downturns, compared
to more mature companies. The revenues, income (or losses), and projected financial performance and valuations of venture growth stage companies can and often do fluctuate suddenly and dramatically. For these reasons, investments in our portfolio
companies, if rated by one or more ratings agency, would typically be rated below investment grade, which refers to securities rated by ratings agencies below the four highest rating categories. Our target venture growth stage companies
are geographically concentrated and are therefore highly susceptible to materially negative local political, natural and economic events. In addition, high growth industries are generally characterized by abrupt business cycles and intense
competition. Overcapacity in high growth industries, together with cyclical economic downturns, may result in substantial decreases in the value of many venture growth stage companies and/or their ability to meet their current and projected
financial performance to service our debt. Furthermore, venture growth stage companies also typically rely on venture capital and private equity investors, or initial public offerings, or sales for additional capital.

Venture capital firms in turn rely on their limited partners to pay in capital over time in order to fund their ongoing and
future investment activities. To the extent that venture capital firms limited partners are unable or choose not to fulfill their ongoing funding obligations, the venture capital firms may be unable to continue operationally and/or financially
supporting the ongoing operations of our portfolio companies which could materially and adversely impact our financing arrangement with the portfolio company.

These companies, their industries, their products and customer demand and the outlook and competitive landscape for their
industries are all subject to change which could adversely impact their ability to execute to their business plans and generate cash flow or raise additional capital which would serve as the basis for repayment of our loans. Therefore, our venture
growth stage companies may face considerably more risk of loss than do companies at other stages of development.

Some of our
portfolio companies may need additional capital, which may not be readily available.

Venture growth stage
companies may require additional equity financing if their cash flow from operating activities is insufficient to satisfy their continuing growth, working capital and other requirements. Each round of venture financing is typically intended to
provide a venture capital-backed company with only enough capital to reach the next stage of development. We cannot predict the circumstances or market conditions under which our venture growth stage companies
will seek additional capital. It is possible that one or more of our venture growth stage companies will not be able to raise additional financing or may be able to do so only at a price or on terms unfavorable to us, either of which would
negatively impact our investment returns, the fair value of our portfolio and our ability to restructure our investments. Some of these companies may be unable to obtain sufficient financing from private investors, public or private capital markets
or traditional lenders. This may have a significant impact if the companies are unable to obtain certain federal, state or foreign agency approval for their

products or the marketing thereof, of if regulatory review processes extend longer than anticipated and the companies need continued funding for their operations during these times. Accordingly,
financing these types of companies may entail a higher risk of loss than would financing companies that are able to utilize traditional credit sources.

Our existing and/or future portfolio companies may not draw on any of our unfunded obligations or may draw our outstanding unfunded
obligations at a time when our capital is not readily available.

As of December 31, 2014, our unfunded
obligations to eleven portfolio companies totaled $211.0 million. We cannot assure you that any of these unfunded or any future obligations will be drawn by the venture growth stage companies. Of these unfunded commitments, $40.5 million
are dependent upon the portfolio companies reaching certain milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to the portfolio company. Of the approximately $211.0 million of unfunded obligations, $103.5 million expire during 2015
and $107.5 million expire during 2016 if not drawn prior to expiration. As of December 31, 2014, $201.0 million of our unfunded commitments were with technology-related companies and
$10.0 million were with non-technology related companies. In addition, of the approximately $211.0 million of unfunded obligations, approximately $206.0 million represent obligations for growth
capital loans and $5.0 million for revolving loans. Seven funding commitments to seven customers expired during the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. We intend to use cash flow from normal
and early principal repayments, indebtedness, any proceeds from any subsequent equity or debt offerings, and available cash to fund our outstanding unfunded obligations. However, there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient capital
available to fund these commitments as they come due. To the extent we are not able to fund commitments as they come due, we may be forced to sell assets, modify the terms of our commitments or default on our commitments, and as a result, our
business could be materially and adversely affected.

Unlike traditional lenders, we offer a flexible payment and covenant structure
to our portfolio companies and may choose not to take advantage of certain opportunities due to our long-term investment philosophy to develop and maintain deep and longstanding relationships with TPCs
select group of leading venture capital investors, borrowers and entrepreneurs and to preserve our reputation.

As
part of the Four Rs, our core investment philosophy, we seek to develop and maintain deep and longstanding relationships with TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors, borrowers and entrepreneurs and to preserve our reputation.
Accordingly, our debt-financing products generally offer borrowers a flexible payment and covenant structure which may not provide us with the same level of protection as more restrictive conditions that
traditional lenders typically impose on borrowers. Furthermore, there may be situations with borrowers on our Credit Watch List where we believe that a member of TPCs select group of venture capital investors intends to, expresses their intent
to, or provides subject to milestones or contingencies, continued support, assistance and/or financial commitment to the borrower and our Adviser, based on such representation, may determine to modify or waive a provision or term of our existing
loan which we would otherwise be entitled to enforce. The terms of any such modification or waiver may not be as favorable to us as we could have required, or had the right to require, and we may choose to enforce less vigorously our rights and
remedies under our loans than traditional lenders due to our investment philosophy to preserve our reputation and maintain a strong relationship with the applicable venture capital investor or borrower based on their representations made to us.

Worldwide economic conditions, economic recessions or downturns, as well as political and economic conditions, could impair our venture
growth stage companies and harm our operating results.

The business and operating results of our venture growth
stage companies may be impacted by worldwide economic conditions. Although the U.S. economy has in recent quarters shown signs of recovery from the global recession, the strength and duration of any economic recovery will be impacted by worldwide
economic growth. Any conflict or uncertainty, including due to natural disasters, public health concerns, political unrest or safety

concerns, could harm their financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. In addition, if the government of any country in which products are developed, manufactured or sold sets
technical or regulatory standards for products developed or manufactured in or imported into their country that are not widely shared, it may lead some of their customers to suspend imports of their products into that country, require manufacturers
or developers in that country to manufacture or develop products with different technical or regulatory standards and disrupt cross-border manufacturing, marketing or business relationships which, in each
case, could harm the business of our venture growth stage companies.

Many of the venture growth stage companies in which
we make investments are susceptible to economic slowdowns or recessions and may be unable to repay our secured loans during such periods. Adverse economic conditions may decrease the value of collateral securing some of our secured loans. Economic
slowdowns or recessions could lead to financial losses in our portfolio and a decrease in revenues, net income and assets. Unfavorable economic conditions also could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a
decision by lenders not to extend credit to us. These events could prevent us from increasing our investments and materially and adversely impact our financial condition, result of operations and cash flows.

If our portfolio companies are unable to protect their intellectual property rights, our business and prospects could be harmed. If our
portfolio companies are required to devote significant resources to protecting their intellectual property rights, then the value of our investment could be reduced.

Our future success and competitive position depend in part upon the ability of our venture growth stage companies to obtain and
maintain proprietary technology used in their products and services, which will often represent a significant portion of the collateral securing our loans. Venture growth stage companies will rely, in part, on patent, trade secret and trademark law
to protect that technology, but competitors may misappropriate their intellectual property, and disputes as to ownership of intellectual property may arise. Venture growth stage companies may have also failed to properly obtain intellectual property
ownership that, under intellectual property laws, by default resides with the personnel who created the intellectual property. Consequently, venture growth stage companies may, from time to time, be required to institute litigation in order to
enforce their patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights, to protect their trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of infringement. Such litigation could
result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Similarly, if a venture growth stage company is found to infringe upon or misappropriate a third-partys patent or other proprietary rights, that
company could be required to pay damages to such third-party, alter its own products or processes, obtain a license from the third-party and/or cease activities
utilizing such proprietary rights, including making or selling products utilizing such proprietary rights. Any of the foregoing events could negatively affect both the companys ability to service our debt obligation and the value of any equity
securities that we own, as well as any collateral securing our obligation.

Our relationship with certain portfolio companies may
expose us to our portfolio companies trade secrets and confidential information which may require us to be parties to non-disclosure agreements and restrict us from engaging in certain transactions.

Our relationship with some of our portfolio companies may expose us to our portfolio companies trade secrets
and confidential information (including transactional data and personal data about their employees and clients) which may require us to be parties to non-disclosure agreements and restrict us from engaging in
certain transactions. Unauthorized access or disclosure of such information may occur, resulting in theft, loss or other misappropriation. Any theft, loss, improper use, such as insider trading or other misappropriation of confidential information
could have a material adverse impact on our competitive positions, our relationship with our portfolio companies and our reputation and could subject us to regulatory inquiries, enforcement and fines, civil litigation and possible financial
liability or costs.

Our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be negatively affected
if we are unable to recover our principal investment as a result of a negative pledge or lack of a security interest on the intellectual property of our venture growth stage companies.

In some cases, we collateralize our loans with a secured collateral position in a venture growth stage companys assets,
which may include a negative pledge or, to a lesser extent, no security on their intellectual property. In the case of a negative pledge, the venture growth stage company cannot encumber or pledge their intellectual property without our permission.
In the event of a default on a loan, the intellectual property of the venture growth stage company will most likely be liquidated to provide proceeds to pay the creditors of the company. There can be no assurance that our security interest, if any,
in the proceeds of the intellectual property will be enforceable in a court of law or bankruptcy court or that there will not be others with senior or pari passu credit interests.

If the assets securing the loans that we make decrease in value, then we may lack sufficient collateral to cover losses.

We believe that our borrowers generally are able to repay our loans from their available capital, future capital-raising transactions or current and/or future cash flow from operations. However, to attempt to mitigate credit risks, we typically take a secured collateral position. There is a risk that the collateral
securing our secured loans may decrease in value over time, may be difficult to sell in a timely manner, may be difficult to appraise, may be liquidated at a price lower than what we consider to be fair value and may fluctuate in value based upon
the success of the business and market conditions, including as a result of the inability of a borrower to raise additional capital.

In certain circumstances, other creditors have claims in priority to our senior lien. Although for certain borrowers, we are
the only form of secured debt (other than potentially specific equipment financing), other borrowers may also have other senior secured debt, such as revolving loans and/or term loans, in priority to our senior lien. In underwriting our loans, we
generally only consider growth capital loans for prospective borrowers with sufficient collateral that covers the value of our loan as well as the revolving and/or term loans that may be in priority to our senior lien; however, there may be
instances in which we have incorrectly estimated the current or future potential value of the underlying collateral or the underlying collateral value has decreased, in which case our ability to recover our investment may be materially and adversely
affected. Approximately 20.5% of the debt investments in our investment portfolio, as of December 31, 2014, based on the aggregate outstanding principal balance, consisted of growth capital loans where the borrower has a term loan facility,
with or without an accompanying revolving loan, in priority to our senior lien.

In addition, a substantial portion of the
assets securing our investment may be in the form of intellectual property, inventory and equipment and, to a lesser extent, cash and accounts receivable. Intellectual property that is securing our loan could lose value if, among other things, the
borrowers rights to the intellectual property are challenged or if the borrowers license to the intellectual property is revoked or expires. Inventory may not be adequate to secure our loan if our valuation of the inventory at the time
that we made the loan was not accurate or if there is a reduction in the demand for the inventory.

Similarly, any
equipment securing our loan may not provide us with the anticipated security if there are changes in technology or advances in new equipment that render the particular equipment obsolete or of limited value, or if the borrower fails to adequately
maintain or repair the equipment. The residual value of the equipment at the time we would take possession may not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding debt and we could experience a loss on the disposition of the equipment. Any one or more of
the preceding factors could materially impair our ability to recover our investment in a foreclosure.

Our portfolio companies may
have limited operating histories and financial resources.

Our portfolio consists of investments in companies that
have relatively limited operating histories. Generally, very little public information exists about these companies, and we are required to rely on the ability



54

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

of our Adviser to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential returns from investing in these companies. If we are unable to uncover all material information about these companies, we
may not make a fully informed investment decision, and we may lose money on our investments. These companies may be particularly vulnerable to U.S. and foreign economic downturns such as the recent recession and may have limited access to capital.
These businesses also frequently have less diverse product lines and a smaller market presence than larger competitors and may experience substantial variations in operating results. They may face intense competition, including from companies with
greater financial, technical, operational and marketing resources, and typically depend upon the expertise and experience of a single individual executive or a small management team. Our success depends, in large part, upon the abilities of the key
management personnel of our portfolio companies, who are responsible for the day-to-day operations of our portfolio companies. Competition for qualified personnel is
intense at any stage of a companys development. The loss of one or more key managers can hinder or delay a companys implementation of its business plan and harm its financial condition. Our portfolio companies may not be able to attract
and retain qualified managers and personnel. Any inability to do so may negatively affect our investment returns.

In
addition, our existing and future portfolio companies may compete with each other for investment or business opportunities and the success of one could negatively impact the other. Furthermore, some of our portfolio companies do business in
regulated industries and could be affected by changes in government regulation. Accordingly, these factors could impair their cash flow or result in other events, such as bankruptcy, which could limit their ability to repay their obligations to us,
and may materially and adversely affect the return on, or the recovery of, our investment. As a result, we may lose our entire investment in any or all of our portfolio companies.

We make debt investments in venture growth stage companies that generally do not have sufficient cash resources to repay our loan in
full at the time of its origination.

We invest primarily in venture growth stage companies that generally do not
have sufficient cash-on-hand to satisfy our loan in full at the time we originate the loan. Following our investment, these companies may be unable to successfully scale
operations and increase revenue as we had anticipated at the time we made the investment. In certain circumstances, these companies may not be able to generate meaningful customer sales, commitments or orders due to unfavorable market conditions. As
a result, the company may not generate sufficient cash flow to service our loan and/or the companys venture capital investors may no longer provide the company with meaningful invested equity capital to provide a debt financing cushion to our
loan. As a consequence, the company may (i) request us to restructure our loan resulting in the delay of principal repayment, the reduction of fees and/or future interest rates and/or the possible loss of principal or (ii) experience
bankruptcy, liquidation or similar financial distress. We may be unable to accommodate any such restructuring request due to the eligibility requirements under the Credit Facility. The bankruptcy, liquidation and/or recovery process has a number of
significant inherent risks for us as a creditor. Many events in a bankruptcy proceeding are the product of contested matters and adversary proceedings and are beyond the control of the creditors. A bankruptcy filing by one of our portfolio companies
may adversely and permanently affect our investment in that company. If the proceeding is converted to liquidation, the liquidation value of the company may not equal the fair value that was believed to exist at the time of our investment. The
duration of a bankruptcy, liquidation and/or recovery proceeding is also difficult to predict, and a creditors return on investment can be materially and adversely affected by delays until the plan of reorganization or liquidation ultimately
becomes effective. The administrative costs in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding are frequently high and would be paid out of the debtors estate prior to any return to creditors. Because the standards for classification of claims under
bankruptcy law are vague, our influence with respect to the obligations we own may be lost by increases in the number and amount of claims or by different treatment. In the early stages of the bankruptcy process, it is often difficult to estimate
the extent of, or even to identify, any contingent claims that might be made. In addition, certain claims that have priority by law (for example, claims for taxes) may be substantial.

There may be circumstances when our debt investments could be subordinated to claims of
other creditors or we could be subject to lender liability claims.

Even though we structure most of our
investments as secured loans, if one of our portfolio companies were to go bankrupt, depending on the facts and circumstances, and based upon principles of equitable subordination as defined by existing case law, a bankruptcy court could subordinate
all or a portion of our claim to that of other creditors and transfer any lien securing such subordinated claim to the bankruptcy estate. The principles of equitable subordination defined by case law have generally indicated that a claim may be
subordinated only if its holder is guilty of misconduct or where the senior loan is re-characterized as an equity investment and the senior lender has actually provided significant managerial assistance to the
bankrupt debtor. We may also be subject to lender liability claims for actions taken by us with respect to a borrowers business or instances where we exercise control over the borrower. It is possible that we could become subject to a
lenders liability claim, including as a result of actions taken in rendering significant managerial assistance or actions to compel and collect payments from the borrower outside the ordinary course of business. Such risk of equitable
subordination may be potentially heightened with respect to various portfolio investments that we may be deemed to control.

The
lack of liquidity in our investments may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The majority of our assets are invested in illiquid loans and a substantial portion of our investments in leveraged companies
are subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or are otherwise less liquid than more broadly traded public securities. The illiquidity of these investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments if the need arises. In
addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we have previously recorded our investments.

To the extent that we invest in equity or equity-linked securities of privately-held companies, there can be no assurances that a trading market will develop for the securities that we wish to liquidate, or that the subject companies will permit their shares to be sold through such
marketplaces. A lack of initial public offering opportunities for venture capital-backed companies could lead to companies staying longer in our portfolio as private entities that continue to require private
funding. This situation may adversely affect the amount of available funding for venture growth stage companies. A lack of initial public offering opportunities for venture capital-backed companies can also
cause some venture capital firms to change their strategies, leading some of them to reduce funding of their portfolio companies and making it more difficult for such companies to access capital and to fulfill their potential, which can result in
unrealized depreciation and realized losses in such companies by other companies such as ourselves who are co-investors in such companies.

Even if a subject portfolio company completes an initial public offering, we are typically subject to lock-up provisions that prohibit us from selling our investments into the public market for specified periods of time after the initial public offering. As a result, the market price of securities that we hold may
decline substantially before we are able to sell these securities following an initial public offering.

Any unrealized losses we
experience on our investment portfolio may be an indication of future realized losses, which could reduce our funds available for distribution and could materially and adversely affect our ability to service our outstanding borrowings.

As a BDC, we are required to carry our investments at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our
Board. Decreases in the market values or fair values of our investments are recorded as unrealized depreciation. Any unrealized losses in our investment portfolio could be an indication of a portfolio companys inability to meet its repayment
obligations to us with respect to the affected investments. This could result in realized losses in the future and ultimately in reductions of our funds available for distribution in future periods and could materially and adversely affect our
ability to service our outstanding borrowings.

Our stockholders do not have any input in our Advisers investment decisions.

Our investments are selected by our Adviser, subject to the approval of its Investment Committee. Our stockholders
do not have input into our Advisers investment decisions. As a result, our stockholders are unable to evaluate any of our potential portfolio investments. These factors increase the uncertainty, and thus the risk, of investing in shares of our
common stock.

Because we do not hold controlling equity interests in our portfolio companies, we are not able to exercise control
over our portfolio companies or prevent decisions by management that could decrease the value of our investment.

We do not hold controlling equity positions in any of our portfolio companies. As a result, we are subject to the risk that a
portfolio company may make business decisions with which we disagree and that the management and/or stockholders of a portfolio company may take risks or otherwise act in ways that are materially adverse to our interests. Due to the lack of
liquidity of the debt and equity investments that we hold in our portfolio, we may not be able to dispose of our investments in the event we disagree with the actions of a portfolio company and may therefore suffer a decrease in the value of our
investment.

We may suffer a loss if a portfolio company defaults on a loan, including the entire or partial loss of the accrued PIK
interest, the end-of-term payment and/or OID, such as warrants and facility fees due to us.

Our debt-financing products generally offer a flexible payment and covenant structure
to our portfolio companies which may not provide the same level of protection to us as more restrictive conditions that traditional lenders typically impose on borrowers. For example, our secured loans generally include an end-of-term payment, PIK interest payment and/or OID, such as warrants and facility fees. If a portfolio company fails to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by
us or other lenders, the company may default on our loan which could potentially lead to termination of its loans and foreclosure on its assets. If a portfolio company defaults under our loan, this could trigger
cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize such portfolio companys ability to meet its obligations under the loans or equity securities that we hold, including payment to us of the end-of-term payment, PIK interest payment and/or OID, such as warrants and facility fees. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to
negotiate new terms, which may include the waiver of certain financial covenants, with a defaulting portfolio company.

Prepayments
of our loans could materially and adversely impact our results of operations and ability to make stockholder distributions and result in a decline in the market price of our shares.

We are subject to the risk that the loans we make to our portfolio companies may be repaid prior to maturity. We expect that
our investments generally allow for repayment at any time subject to penalties in certain limited circumstances. When this occurs, we generally reinvest these proceeds in temporary investments, pending their future investment in accordance with our
investment strategy. These temporary investments typically have substantially lower yields than the loan being prepaid and we could experience significant delays in reinvesting these amounts. Any future investment may also be at lower yields than
the loan that was repaid. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected if one or more of our portfolio companies elect to prepay amounts owed to us. Additionally, prepayments
could negatively impact our ability to make, or the amount of, stockholder distributions with respect to our common stock, which could result in a decline in the market price of our shares.

Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, our investments in such companies.

We invest a portion of our capital in loans that have a secured collateral position. Our portfolio companies may have, or may
be permitted to incur, other debt that is secured by and ranks equally with, or senior to, all or a



57

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

portion of the collateral secured by the loans in which we invest. By their terms, such debt instruments may provide that the holders are entitled to receive payment of interest or principal on
or before the dates on which we are entitled to receive payments in respect of the loans in which we invest or are entitled to receive payment from the disposition of certain collateral or all collateral senior to us. Also, in the event of
insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company, holders of debt instruments ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before we
receive any distribution in respect of our investment. After repaying senior creditors, a portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use for repaying its obligation to us. In the case of debt ranking equally with loans in which we
invest, we would have to share any distributions on an equal and ratable basis with other creditors holding such debt in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of the company.

The senior liens on the collateral secure the companys obligations under any outstanding senior debt and may secure
certain other future debt that may be permitted to be incurred by the company under the agreements governing the loans. The holders of obligations secured by senior liens on the collateral generally control the liquidation of, and are entitled to
receive proceeds from, any realization of the collateral to repay their obligations in full before us. In addition, the value of the collateral in the event of liquidation depends on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and
other factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from sales of all of the collateral would be sufficient to satisfy the loan obligations secured by the senior liens after payment in full of all obligations secured by other liens
on the collateral. If such proceeds were not sufficient to repay amounts outstanding under the loan obligations secured by other liens, then we, to the extent not repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the collateral, will only have an unsecured
claim against the companys remaining assets, if any.

The rights we may have with respect to the collateral securing
the loans we make to our portfolio companies with senior debt outstanding may also be limited pursuant to the terms of one or more intercreditor agreements that we enter into with the holders of such senior debt. Under a typical intercreditor
agreement, at any time that obligations that have the benefit of the senior liens are outstanding, any of the following actions that may be taken in respect of the collateral will be at the direction of the holders of the obligations secured by the
senior liens:



| |  |  | the ability to cause the commencement of enforcement proceedings against the collateral;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the ability to control the conduct of such proceedings;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the approval of amendments to collateral documents;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | releases of liens on the collateral;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | waivers of past defaults under collateral documents; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may not have the ability to control or direct such actions, even if our rights, including our security interest in the collateral, are
materially and adversely affected.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The disposition of our investments may result in contingent liabilities.

A substantial majority of our investments are loans. In connection with the disposition of an investment in loans,
we may be required to make representations about the business and financial affairs of the portfolio company typical of those made in connection with the sale of a business. We may also be required to indemnify the purchasers of such investment to
the extent that any such representations turn out to be inaccurate or with respect to potential liabilities. These arrangements may result in contingent liabilities that ultimately result in funding obligations that we must satisfy through our
return of distributions previously made to us.

Our equity related investments are highly speculative, and we may not realize gains from
these investments.

When we make a secured loan, we generally acquire warrants in the company. From time to time we
may also acquire equity participation rights in connection with an investment which will allow us, at our option, to participate in current or future rounds of equity financing through direct capital investments in our portfolio companies. In
addition, we may be required to accrue OID which decreases the balance on our secured loans by an amount equal to the value of the warrants we receive in connection with the applicable secured loan over its lifetime. To the extent we hold these
equity related investments, we attempt to dispose of them and realize gains upon our disposition of them. However, the equity related investments we receive and make may not appreciate in value or may decline in value. We also may be unable to
realize any value if a portfolio company does not have a liquidity event, such as a sale of the business or public offering, or if the portfolio company defaults under its outstanding indebtedness, which could materially decrease the value of, or
prevent us from being able to sell, the underlying equity related investment. As a result, we may not be able to realize gains from our equity related investments and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity related investment
may not be sufficient to offset any other losses or OID we experience or accrue.

Our investments in the life sciences industry are
subject to extensive government regulation, litigation risk and certain other risks particular to that industry.

We have invested and plan to continue investing in venture growth stage companies in the life sciences industry that are
subject to extensive regulation by the Food and Drug Administration and, to a lesser extent, federal, state and other foreign agencies. If any of these companies fail to comply with applicable regulations, they could be subject to significant
penalties and claims that could materially and adversely affect their operations. In addition, governmental budgetary constraints affecting the regulatory approval process, new laws, regulations or judicial interpretations of existing laws and
regulations might materially and adversely affect a company in this industry. Venture growth stage companies in the life sciences industry may also have a limited number of suppliers of necessary components or a limited number of manufacturers for
their products, and therefore face a risk of disruption to their manufacturing process if they are unable to find alternative suppliers when needed. Any of these factors could materially and adversely affect the operations of a company in this
industry and, in turn, impair our ability to timely collect principal and interest payments owed to us.

Investments in secured
loans to companies with foreign operations may involve significant risks in addition to the risks inherent in U.S. investments.

Our investment strategy contemplates making secured loans to companies with foreign operations. Investing in such companies may
expose us to additional risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies or U.S. companies with no foreign operations. These risks include changes in exchange control regulations, intellectual property laws, political and social
instability, limitations in our ability to perfect our security interests, expropriation, imposition of foreign taxes, less liquid markets and less available information than is generally the case in the United States, higher transaction costs, less
government supervision of exchanges, brokers and issuers, less developed bankruptcy laws, difficulty in enforcing contractual obligations, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards and greater price volatility. In addition, we expect
investing in such companies will expose us to higher administrative, legal and monitoring costs and expenses not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies or U.S. companies with no foreign operations.

We may expose ourselves to risks resulting from our use of interest rate hedging transactions.

A majority of our loans in our existing portfolio, as of December 31, 2014, have a fixed interest rate. Our Credit
Facility bears interest at a floating rate. We may utilize instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps, collars and/or floors to seek to hedge against fluctuations in the relative values of our fixed-rate
portfolio positions and/or to hedge against the impact on our net investment income from changes in market interest rates. When we engage in interest rate hedging transactions, we may expose ourselves to risks associated with such



59

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

transactions. We believe that any hedging transactions that we enter into in the future will not be considered qualifying assets under the 1940 Act, which may limit our hedging
strategy more than other companies that are not subject to the 1940 Act.

Hedging transactions do not eliminate the risks
associated with possible interest rate fluctuations on the value of our investments. These risks include: (i) the possibility that the market will move in a manner or direction that would have resulted in gain for us had an interest rate
hedging transaction not been utilized, in which case our performance would have been better had we not engaged in the interest rate hedging transaction; (ii) the risk of imperfect correlation between the risk sought to be hedged and the
interest rate hedging transaction used; (iii) potential illiquidity for the hedging instrument used, which may make it difficult for us to close-out or unwind an interest rate hedging transaction; and
(iv) the possibility that the counterparty fails to honor its obligation. Furthermore, it may not be possible to hedge against an interest rate fluctuation that is so generally anticipated that we are not able to enter into a hedging
transaction at an acceptable price. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we may not seek to establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the interest rate being hedged. Any such imperfect correlation may prevent us from
achieving the intended hedge and expose us to risk of loss.

Our failure to make protective or
follow-on investments in our portfolio companies could impair the value of our portfolio.

Following an initial investment in a portfolio company, we may make additional investments in that portfolio company as
protective and/or follow-on investments, in order to attempt to preserve or enhance the value of our initial investment. We may elect not to make
follow-on investments or otherwise lack sufficient funds to make those investments. We have the discretion to make any follow-on investments, subject to the availability
of capital resources. The failure to make follow-on investments may, in some circumstances, jeopardize the continued viability of a portfolio company, result in a diminished current value or impair the ability
or likelihood for a full recovery of the value of our initial investment, or may result in a missed opportunity for us to increase our participation in a successful operation. Even if we have sufficient capital to make a desired follow-on investment, we may elect not to make a follow-on investment because we do not want to increase our concentration of risk, we prefer other opportunities, we are
subject to BDC requirements that would prevent such follow-on investments or the follow-on investment would affect our qualification as a RIC.

Our common stock may trade below our net asset value per share, which limits our ability to raise additional equity capital.

If our common stock is trading below our net asset value per share, we are not able to issue additional shares of
our common stock at the market price without first obtaining the approval for such issuance from our stockholders and our independent directors. If our common stock trades below our net asset value per share, the higher cost of equity capital may
result in it being unattractive to raise new equity, which may limit our ability to grow. The risk of our common stock trading below our net asset value per share is separate and distinct from the risk that our net asset value per share may decline.
We cannot predict whether shares of our common stock will trade above, at or below our net asset value per share.

Our stockholders
will experience dilution in their ownership percentage if they opt out of our dividend reinvestment plan.

All
dividends declared in cash payable to stockholders that are participants in our dividend reinvestment plan may be reinvested in newly-issued shares of our common stock. As a result, our stockholders that opt
out of our dividend reinvestment plan will experience dilution in their ownership percentage of our common stock over time.

Investing in our common stock may involve an above average degree of risk.

The investments we make in accordance with our investment strategy may result in a higher amount of risk and higher volatility
or loss of principal than alternative investment options. Our investments in venture growth stage companies with secured loans, warrants and direct equity investments may be speculative and, therefore, an investment in our common stock may not be
suitable for someone with lower risk tolerance.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.

The market price and liquidity of the market for shares of our common stock may be significantly affected by numerous factors,
some of which are beyond our control and may not be directly related to our operating performance. These factors include:



| |  |  | price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of BDCs or other companies in our sector, which is not necessarily
related to the operating performance of these companies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any inability to deploy or invest our capital;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuations in interest rates;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | any inability to access the capital markets;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | realized and unrealized losses in investments in our portfolio companies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the financial performance of the industries in which we invest;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | announcement of strategic developments, acquisitions, and other material events by us or our competitors or operating performance of companies
comparable to us;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in regulatory policies or tax guidelines, particularly with respect to RICs or BDCs;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | perception or reputation of TPC;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of our qualification as a RIC or BDC;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in earnings or variations in operating results;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in accounting guidelines governing valuation of our investments;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any shortfall in revenue or net income or any increase in losses from levels expected by investors or securities analysts;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | departure of, or loss of access to, our Advisers senior investment team;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operating performance of companies comparable to us; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general economic trends and other external factors.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities, securities class action
litigation has often been brought against that company. Due to the potential volatility of our stock price, we may be the target of securities litigation in the future. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and could divert
managements attention and resources from our business.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market
may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common
stock, or the availability of such common stock for sale, could adversely affect the prevailing market prices for our common stock. If this occurs and continues, it could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of securities
should we desire to do so.

thirteen stockholders of record.

Distributions

To the extent that we have funds available, we intend to make quarterly distributions to our stockholders. Our stockholder
distributions, if any, will be determined by our Board. Any distribution to our stockholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. Our Board authorized a distribution of $0.09 per share for the period ending
March 31, 2014, a distribution of $0.30 per share for the period ending June 30, 2014, and a distribution of $0.32 for the period ending September 30, 2014. In addition, on October 27, 2014, our Board authorized a $0.36 per share
dividend, which was paid on December 16, 2014 to stockholders of record on November 28, 2014 and on December 3, 2014, our Board authorized a $0.15 per share special dividend, which was paid on December 31, 2014 to stockholders of
record on December 22, 2014. On March 16, 2015, our Board declared a $0.36 per share dividend payable on April 16, 2015, to stockholders of record on March 26, 2015. We will not be able to determine whether any specific
distribution will be treated as made out of our taxable earnings or as a return of capital until after the end of our taxable year. The amount treated as a tax-free return of capital will reduce a
stockholders adjusted basis in his or her common stock, thereby increasing his or her potential gain or reducing his or her potential loss on the subsequent sale or other disposition of his or her common stock. For purposes of issuing and
publishing the Rule 19a-1 notice required under the 1940 Act, we will calculate both our current and accumulated earnings and profits on a tax basis in order to determine the amount of any distribution
that constituted a return of capital to our stockholders. While such distributions are not taxable, they reduce a shareholders basis in his, her, or its shares of common stock, which may result in the shareholder recognizing more taxable
capital gains, or a lower capital loss, when the shares of common stock are eventually sold.

We intend to elect to be treated, and intend to qualify annually thereafter, as a
RIC under the Code, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To obtain and maintain RIC tax treatment, we must distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net realized
short-term capital gains in excess of our net realized long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders. In order to avoid certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we
currently intend to distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of: (a) 98% of our ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for such calendar year; (b) 98.2% of the amount by which
our capital gains exceed our capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year; and (c) certain undistributed amounts from previous
years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax.

We currently intend to distribute net
long-term capital gains if any, at least annually out of the assets legally available for such distributions. However, we may in the future decide to retain some or all of our
long-term capital gains but designate the retained amount as a deemed distribution. In that case, among other consequences, we will pay tax on the retained amount, each U.S. stockholder will be
required to include their share of the deemed distribution in income as if it had been distributed to the U.S. stockholder, and the U.S. stockholder will be entitled to claim a credit equal to their allocable share of the tax paid on the deemed
distribution by us. The amount of the deemed distribution net of such tax will be added to such stockholders tax basis in such stockholders common stock. Since we expect to pay tax on any retained capital gains at our regular corporate
tax rate, and since that rate is in excess of the maximum rate currently payable by individuals on long-term capital gains, the amount of tax that individual stockholders will be treated as having paid and for
which they will receive a credit will exceed the tax they owe on the retained net capital gain. Such excess generally may be claimed as a credit against such individual stockholders other U.S. federal income tax obligations or may be refunded
to the extent it exceeds such individual stockholders liability for U.S. federal income tax. We cannot assure any stockholder that we will achieve results that will permit us to pay any cash distributions, and if we issue senior securities, we
may be prohibited from making distributions if doing so would cause us to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if such distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings.

Unless a stockholder elects to receive distributions in cash, we intend to make such distributions in additional shares of our
common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan. Although distributions paid in the form of additional shares of our common stock will generally be subject to U.S. federal, state and local taxes in the same manner as cash distributions, investors
participating in our dividend reinvestment plan will not receive any corresponding cash distributions with which to pay any such applicable taxes. If a stockholder holds shares of our common stock in the name of a broker or financial intermediary,
such stockholder should contact such broker or financial intermediary regarding the election to receive distributions in cash in lieu of shares of our common stock. Any distributions reinvested through the issuance of shares through our dividend
reinvestment plan will increase our assets on which the base management fee and the incentive fee are determined and paid to our Adviser.

The following table summarizes our cash distributions, including dividends and returns of capital, if any, per share that have
been authorized by our board of directors since our initial public offering:

Forward-Looking Statements

We make forward-looking statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and will make forward-looking statements in future
filings with the SEC, press releases or other written or oral communications within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (or, the Exchange Act). For these
statements, we claim the protections of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in such sections. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking
statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. Important assumptions include our ability to originate
new loans and investments, certain margins and levels of profitability and the availability of additional capital. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described in Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K under Part 1A. You
should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview

We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC
under the 1940 Act. We also intend to elect to be treated, and intend to qualify annually thereafter, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ending December 31, 2014.

Our investment objective is to maximize our total return to stockholders primarily in the form of current income and, to a
lesser extent, capital appreciation by primarily lending with warrants to venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries which are backed by TPCs select group of leading venture capital
investors.

We were formed to expand the venture growth stage business segment of TPCs global investment platform
and are the primary vehicle through which TPC focuses its venture growth stage business. TPC is widely recognized as a leading global financing provider devoted to serving venture capital-backed companies with creative, flexible and customized
debt financing, equity capital and complementary services throughout their lifespan. TPC is located on Sand Hill Road in Silicon Valley and has a primary focus in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries.

We commenced investment activities on March 5, 2014. In order to expedite the ramp-up of our investment activities
and further our ability to meet our investment objectives, on March 5, 2014, we acquired our initial portfolio. The net consideration paid was approximately $121.7 million which reflected approximately $123.7 million of investments less
approximately $2.0 million of prepaid interest and fair value of unfunded commitments. We financed the acquisition of our initial portfolio by using a portion of a $200.0 million bridge facility provided by Deutsche Bank. On
March 11, 2014, we completed our initial public offering and sold 9,840,655 shares of common stock (including 1,250,000 shares of common stock through the underwriters exercise of their overallotment option and the concurrent private
placement of 257,332 shares of common stock to our Advisers senior team and other persons associated with TPC) of our common stock at an offering price of $15.00 per share. We received $141.6 million of net proceeds in connection with the
initial public offering and concurrent private placement, net of the portion of front end charges and offering costs we paid. We used a

portion of these net proceeds to pay down all amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility and terminated the Bridge Facility in conjunction with such repayment.

In February 2014, we entered into a credit agreement, or the Credit Facility, with Deutsche Bank acting as administrative
agent and a lender, and KeyBank National Association, Everbank Commercial Lender Finance, Inc., and AloStar Bank of Commerce, as other lenders, which provided us with a $150.0 million commitment, subject to borrowing base requirements. In
August 2014, we amended our Credit Facility to increase the total commitments by $50.0 million to $200.0 million in aggregate.

Portfolio Composition, Investment Activity and Asset Quality

Portfolio Composition

We originate and invest primarily in venture growth stage companies. Companies at the venture growth stage have distinct
characteristics differentiating them from venture capital-backed companies at other stages in their development lifecycle. We invest primarily in (i) growth capital loans that have a secured collateral position and that are used by venture
growth stage companies to finance their continued expansion and growth, (ii) equipment financings, which may be structured as loans or leases, that have a secured collateral position on specified mission-critical equipment, (iii) on a
select basis, revolving loans that have a secured collateral position and that are used by venture growth stage companies to advance against inventory, components, accounts receivable, contractual or future billings, bookings, revenues, sales or
cash payments and collections including proceeds from a sale, financing or the equivalent and (iv) direct equity investments in venture growth stage companies. In connection with our growth capital loans, equipment financings and revolving
loans, we generally receive warrants that allow us to participate in any equity appreciation of our borrowers and enhance our overall investment returns.

As of December 31, 2014, we had 76 investments in 27 companies. Our investments included 46 debt investments, 26 warrant
investments, and four direct equity investments. The total cost and fair value of these investments were approximately $256.5 million and approximately $258.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, one of our customers was
publicly traded. At December 31, 2014, the 46 debt investments with an aggregate fair value of approximately $247.6 million had a weighted average loan to enterprise value at the time of origination ratio of approximately 9.1%.

The following table provides information on the cost, fair value, and net unrealized gains of our investments in companies
along with the number of companies in our portfolio as of December 31, 2014.

Approximately 20.5% of the debt investments in our portfolio as of December 31, 2014,
based on the aggregate fair value, consisted of growth capital loans where the borrower has a term loan facility, with or without an accompanying revolving loan, in priority to our senior lien.

Investment Activity

During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, we entered into fifteen new
commitments with eleven new customers and four existing customers totaling $269.5 million, we funded 32 debt investments for approximately $159.4 million in principal balance, acquired warrants representing approximately $3.5 million of value, and
made two equity investments totaling approximately $0.5 million.

##### Index to Financial Statements

As of December 31, 2014, our unfunded commitments to 11 companies totaled
$211.0 million of which $40.5 million is dependent upon the companies reaching certain milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to them. These commitments are available for a limited time and $103.5 million will expire during 2015 and
$107.5 million will expire during 2016 if not drawn prior to expiration. As of December 31, 2014, $201.0 million of these unfunded commitments were with technology-related companies and $10.0 million were with non-technology related
companies. In addition, $206.0 million represent commitments for growth capital loans and $5.0 million for revolving loans. Our credit agreements contain customary lending provisions which allow us relief from funding obligations for previously
made commitments in instances where the underlying company experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the company. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon unfunded
commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. We generally expect approximately 75% of our gross unfunded commitments to eventually be drawn before the expiration of their corresponding
availability periods.

The fair value at the inception of the agreement of the delay draw credit agreements is equal to the
fees and/or warrants received to enter into these agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties credit profile. The unfunded commitment liability reflects the fair value of these future funding
commitments. As of December 31, 2014, the fair value for these unfunded commitments totaled approximately $2.1 million and is included in our consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.

Our level of investment activity can vary substantially from period to period as our Adviser chooses to slow or accelerate new
business originations depending on market conditions, rate of investment of TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors, our Advisers knowledge, expertise and experience, our funding capacity (including availability under our
credit facilities and our ability or inability to raise equity or debt capital), and other market dynamics.

The following
table shows the debt commitments, fundings of debt investments (principal balance) and equity investments and non-binding term sheet activity for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and for the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement
of operations) to December 31, 2014.

Asset Quality

Consistent with TPCs existing policies, our Adviser maintains a credit watch list with borrowers placed into five groups

During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31,
2014, there were four changes within these categories. Two borrowers were moved to Clear from White based on their strong financial profile and liquidity position although one subsequently paid off their loans and is no longer in our portfolio. Two
borrowers were moved to Yellow from White based on their performing generally below expectations and some proactive concerns. As of December 31, 2014, the weighted average investment ranking of our portfolio based on the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of our funded debt investments was 2.06.

Results of Operations

An important measure of our financial performance is net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, which
includes net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Net investment income (loss) is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our
operating expenses including interest on borrowed funds.

Net realized gains (losses) on investments are the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio.

For the three months ended
December 31, 2014, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $4.8 million which was comprised of approximately $5.9 million of net investment income and approximately $1.1 million of net unrealized losses. On a
per share basis, net investment income was $0.59 per share and the net increase in net assets from operations was $0.48 per share. Our core net investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $5.6 million, or $0.57
per share.

Our investment and other income increased from approximately $7.9 million for the three months ended September
30, 2014 to approximately $10.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, as the result of prepayment activity of two of our portfolio companies and the increase in the average portfolio balance. Operating expenses increased from
approximately $4.3 million for the period ended September 30, 2014 to approximately $4.8 million for the period ended December 31, 2014 as the result of higher fees (due to a higher asset balance and higher returns) and higher interest expense (due
to higher outstanding average balances). Net investment income increased from approximately $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 to approximately $4.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014 for the reasons noted
above. There were no realized capital gains or losses during any period in 2014. Net unrealized gains were approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and net unrealized losses were approximately $1.1 million
for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The net unrealized losses during the three months ended December 31, 2014 included the reversal of some of the unrealized gains recognized in prior periods as the result of prepayment activity in this
period. Our net increase in net assets from operations increased from approximately $4.7 million, or $0.47 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2014 to approximately $4.8 million, or $0.48 per share, for the three months ended
December 31, 2014. Core net investment income increased from approximately $3.8 million, or $0.38 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2014, to approximately $5.6 million, or $0.57 per share for the three months ended December 31,
2014 for the reasons noted above.

For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to
December 31, 2014, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $14.3 million which was comprised of approximately $12.8 million of net investment income and approximately $1.5 million of net unrealized gains. On a
per share basis, net investment income was $1.30 per share and the net increase in net assets from operations was $1.45 per share. Our core net investment income for the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014 was
approximately $13.1 million, or $1.33 per share.

The table below reconciles GAAP net income to core net investment income for the
three months ended September 30, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2014, and for the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. Core net investment income, unlike GAAP net investment
income, excludes accrued, but as yet unearned, capital gains incentive fees. We believe an important measure of the investment income that we will be required to distribute each year is core net investment income as capital gains incentive fees are
accrued based on unrealized gains but are not earned until realized gains occur. Specifically, the capital gains component of the incentive fee is paid at the end of each calendar year and is 20.0% of our aggregate cumulative realized capital
gains from commencement of operations through the end of the year, computed net of our aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and our aggregate cumulative unrealized depreciation through the end of such year. For the foregoing purpose,
our aggregate cumulative realized capital gains does not include any unrealized appreciation. The capital gains component of the incentive fee is not subject to any minimum return to stockholders. As noted earlier, there were
no realized capital gains or losses during any period in 2014. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we recognized approximately $1.2 million in unrealized gains and we accrued approximately $0.2 million of capital gains incentive fee.
For the three months ended December 31, 2014, we recognized $1.1 million in unrealized losses and we accrued an approximately $0.2 million reversal of previously accrued capital gains incentive fee. For the period from March 5, 2014
(commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, we reported approximately $1.5 million in unrealized gains and accrued approximately $0.3 million in capital gains incentive fee.

Investment income includes interest income on our debt investments utilizing the effective
yield method and includes cash interest income as well as the amortization of purchase premium, accretion of purchase discount, original issue discount, facilities fees, and the amortization and payment of the end-of-term payments. For the
three months ended December 31, 2014, investment income totaled approximately $10.2 million, representing a weighted average portfolio yield of approximately 16.9% on debt investments for the period held. For the period from March 5, 2014
(commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, investment income totaled approximately $24.7 million, representing a weighted average portfolio yield of approximately 15.4% on debt investments for the period held.

We calculate weighted average portfolio yields for periods shown as the annualized rates of the interest income recognized
during the period divided by the average amortized cost of debt investments in the portfolio at the beginning of each month in the period. The weighted average yields reported for these periods are annualized and reflect the weighted average yields
to maturities. Should the portfolio companies choose to repay their loans earlier, our weighted average yields will increase for those debt investments affected but may reduce our weighted average yields on the remaining portfolio in future
quarters. As our portfolio grows and seasons, we expect our loans to be outstanding for shorter periods than to maturity and to reflect healthy prepayment activity.

For the three months ended December 31, 2014, the weighted average portfolio yield on our portfolio of approximately
16.9% was comprised of approximately 11.0% cash interest income, approximately 0.5% of accretion of the net purchase discount, facilities fees and the value of warrants received, approximately 3.0% of

accretion of end-of-term payments and approximately 2.4% due to the accelerated receipt of end-of term payments on prepayments.

For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, the weighted average portfolio
yield on our portfolio of approximately 15.4% was comprised of approximately 11.1% cash interest income, approximately 0.4% of accretion of the net purchase discount, facilities fees and the value of warrants received, approximately 3.0% of
accretion of end-of-term payments and approximately 0.9% due to the accelerated receipt of end-of term payments.

The
yield on our portfolio, excluding the impact of prepayments was approximately 14.5% for both the three months ended December 31, 2014 and for the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. Overall,
new fundings during each quarter were added at average yields that were higher than the average yield on the then existing portfolio. The actual yields on our portfolio will be dependent on future fundings and the performance of our loans including
prepayments.

For the three months ended December 31, 2014, we recognized approximately $0.5 million in other income
from certain fees paid by companies, the recognition of the value of unfunded commitments that expired or terminated, and other miscellaneous income. For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, we
recognized approximately $0.7 million in other income from certain fees paid by companies, the recognition of the value of unfunded commitments that expired or terminated, and other miscellaneous income.

For the three months ended December 31, 2014, total operating expenses were approximately $4.8 million, comprising of
approximately $2.2 million in base management and incentive fees, approximately $1.6 million in interest expense, approximately $0.4 million in administrative agreement expenses, and approximately $0.6 million in general and administrative
expenses. For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, total operating expenses were approximately $12.5 million, comprising of approximately $5.6 million in base management and incentive fees,
approximately $3.9 million in interest expense, approximately $1.1 million in administrative agreement expenses, and approximately $1.9 million in general and administrative expenses. In determining the base management fee, our Adviser has agreed
not to include the U.S. Treasury bill assets acquired at the end of each of the quarter of 2014 in the calculation of the gross assets. We anticipate operating expenses will increase over time as our portfolio continues to grow. However, we
anticipate operating expenses, as a percentage of totals assets and net assets, will decrease over time as our portfolio and capital base grow. We expect management fees will increase as we grow our asset base and our earnings exceed the hurdle rate
for the investment income incentive fee. Capital gains incentive fee will depend on realized and unrealized gains and losses. Interest expense will increase as we utilize more of our credit facility, and we expect fees per the administrative
agreement and general and administrative agreements will increase to meet the additional requirements associated with servicing a larger portfolio.

For the three months ended December 31, 2014, our net change in unrealized losses on investments was approximately $1.1
million consisting of approximately $0.7 million net change in unrealized losses for the reversal of unrealized gains recognized in the prior quarter related to prepayments and termination of unfunded commitments, approximately $0.3 million in
net unrealized losses on debt and short-term investments due to changes in fair value, and approximately $37 thousand net change in unrealized losses on warrants. During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to
December 31, 2014, our net change in unrealized gains on investments was approximately $1.5 million consisting of approximately $0.3 million net change in unrealized gains on debt and short-term investments due to changes in fair value,
approximately $0.6 million net change in unrealized losses on warrants due to changes in fair value, and approximately $0.6 million net change in unrealized gains on equity investments due to changes in fair value. Net change in unrealized
gains on investments as of December 31, 2014 was approximately $1.5 million, or $0.15 per share. Net change in unrealized gains or losses in subsequent periods may be volatile as it depends on changes in the market, changes in the underlying
performance of our portfolio companies and their respective industries, and many other factors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles require us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results
to differ. In addition to the discussion below, we describe our critical accounting policies in the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of Investments

We measure the value of our investments at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosure , or ASC Topic 820, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Our Valuation Committee is also responsible for
assisting our Board in valuing investments that are not publicly traded or for which current market values are not readily available. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are
generally obtained from independent pricing services, broker-dealers or market makers. With respect to portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available, our Board, with the assistance of our Adviser and its senior
investment team and independent valuation agents, is responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair value in accordance with the valuation policy approved by our Board. If more than one valuation method is used to measure fair value, the
results are evaluated and weighted, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. We consider a range of fair values based upon the valuation techniques utilized and select the value within that range that
was most representative of fair value based on current market conditions as well as other factors our Advisers senior investment team considers relevant. Our Board will make this fair value determination on a quarterly basis or at such other
times when the Board feels it would be appropriate to do so given the circumstances. A determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates and depends on the facts and circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining
the fair value of portfolio investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such
investments, and the differences could be material.

ASC Topic 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on
whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance regarding a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value
measurements on earnings and provides for enhanced disclosures determined by the level within the hierarchy of information used in the valuation. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, these inputs are summarized in the three levels listed below.



77



---

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

Level 1Valuations are based on quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2Valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all
significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable.

Level 3Valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair
value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models incorporating significant unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow models and other similar valuations
techniques. The valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities generally requires significant management judgment due to the inability to observe inputs to valuation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such
cases, an investments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of observable input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value
measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

Under ASC Topic 820, the
fair value measurement also assumes that the transaction to sell an asset occurs in the principal market for the asset or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset, which may be a hypothetical market, and
excludes transaction costs. The principal market for any asset is the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for such asset in which the reporting entity would or could sell or transfer the asset. In determining the principal market
for an asset or liability under ASC Topic 820, it is assumed that the reporting entity has access to such market as of the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are
independent, knowledgeable and willing and able to transact.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are
not readily available, our Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by our Advisers professionals that
are responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our Advisers senior investment team;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our Valuation Committee then reviews these preliminary valuations and makes fair value recommendations to the Board;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment will be reviewed by an independent valuation firm. However, our Board does not
intend to have de minimis investments of less than 1.0% of our gross assets (up to an aggregate of 10.0% of our gross assets) independently reviewed; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our Board then discusses valuations and determines, in good faith, the fair value of each investment in our portfolio based on the input of our
Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms and our Valuation Committee.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Debt Investments

The debt investments are primarily loans and equipment financings made to venture growth stage companies focused in technology,
life sciences and other high growth industries which are backed by leading venture capital investors. These investments are considered Level 3 assets under ASC Topic 820 because there is no known or accessible market or market indices for these type
of debt instruments and thus our Advisers senior investment team must estimate the fair value of these investment securities based on models utilizing unobservable inputs.



78

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

To estimate the fair value of our debt investments, we compare the cost basis of
the debt investment, which includes original issue discount, to the resulting fair value determined using a discounted cash flow model, unless another model is more appropriate based on the circumstances at the measurement date. The discounted cash
flow approach entails analyzing the interest rate spreads for recently completed financing transactions which are similar in nature to our investments, in order to determine a comparable range of effective market interest rates for our investments.
The range of interest rate spreads utilized is based on borrowers with similar credit profiles. All remaining expected cash flows of the investment are discounted using this range of interest rates to determine a range of fair values for the debt
investment.

This valuation process includes, among other things, evaluating the underlying investment performance, the
portfolio companys current financial condition and ability to raise additional capital, as well as macro-economic events that may impact valuations. These events include, but are not limited to, current market yields and interest rate spreads
of similar securities as of the measurement date. Increases (decreases) in these unobservable inputs could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Under certain circumstances, we may use an alternative technique to value the debt investments that better reflects the fair
value of the investment, such as the price paid or realized in a recently completed transaction or a binding offer received in an arms length transaction, the use of multiple probability weighted cash flow models when the expected future cash
flows contain elements of variability or estimates of proceeds that would be received in a liquidation scenario.

Warrants

Fair values of the warrants are primarily estimated using a Black Scholes option pricing model. Privately held warrant and
equity-related securities are valued based on an analysis of various factors including, but not limited to, the following:



| |  |  | Underlying enterprise value of the issuer is estimated based on information available, including any information regarding the most recent rounds
of borrower funding. Valuation techniques to determine enterprise value include market multiple approaches, income approaches or approaches that utilize recent rounds of financing and the portfolio companys capital structure to determine
enterprise value. Valuation techniques are also utilized to allocate the enterprise fair value of a portfolio company to the specific class of common or preferred stock exercisable in the warrant. Such techniques take into account the rights and
preferences of the portfolio companys securities, expected exit scenarios, and volatility associated with such outcomes to allocate the fair value to the specific class of stock held in the portfolio. Such techniques include option pricing
models, including back solve techniques, probability weighted expected return models, and other techniques as determined to be appropriate.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Volatility, or the amount of uncertainty or risk about the size of the changes in the warrant price, is based on comparable publicly-traded
companies within indices similar in nature to the underlying company issuing the warrant. Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The risk-free interest rates are derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The risk-free interest rates are calculated based on a weighted
average of the risk-free interest rates that correspond closest to the expected remaining life of the warrant. Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other adjustments, including a marketability discount on private company warrants, are estimated based on our judgment about the general industry
environment. Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Historical portfolio experience on cancellations and exercises of warrants are utilized as the basis for determining the estimated life of the
warrants in each financial reporting period. Warrants may be exercised in the event of acquisitions, mergers or initial public offerings, and cancelled due to events

| | such as bankruptcies, restructuring activities or additional financings. These events cause the expected remaining life assumption to be shorter than the contractual term of the warrants.
Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under certain circumstances we may use an alternative technique to value warrants that better reflects the warrants fair
values, such as an expected settlement of a warrant in the near term, a model that incorporates a put feature associated with the warrant, or the price paid or realized in a recently completed transaction or binding offer received in an arms
length transaction. The fair value may be determined based on the expected proceeds to be received from such settlement or based on the net present value of the expected proceeds from the put option.

These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment. There is no single standard for determining the
estimated fair value of investments which do not have an active public market. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, as they are based on estimates, and their values may fluctuate over time. The determination of fair
value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market for these investments existed. In some cases, the fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing different
methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined.

Equity Investments

The fair value of an equity investment in a privately held company is initially the amount invested. We adjust the fair value
of equity investments in private companies upon the completion of a new third party round of equity financing subsequent to our investment. We may make adjustments to fair value, absent a new equity financing event, based upon positive or negative
changes in a portfolio companys financial or operational performance. We may also reference comparable transactions and/or secondary market transactions to estimate fair value. The fair value of an equity investment in a publicly traded
company is based upon the closing public share price on the date of measurement. These assets are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment. There is no single standard for
determining the estimated fair value of investments which do not have an active public market. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, as they are based on estimates, and their values may fluctuate over time. The
determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market for these investments existed. In some cases, the fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing
different methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined.

Income Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of market premium and accretion of market discount, is recorded on an accrual basis
to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. Original issue discount, principally representing the estimated fair value of detachable equity or warrants obtained in conjunction with our debt investments, and market discount or premium are
capitalized and accreted or amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees received in connection with the closing of investments are reported as unearned income
which is included as amortized cost of the investment; the unearned income from such fees is accreted over the contractual life of the loan based on the effective interest method as interest income. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any
prepayment penalties, unamortized loan origination fees, and unamortized market discounts are recorded as interest income. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, unamortized loan origination fees and unamortized market discounts are
recorded as interest income. EOT payments are contractual and fixed interest payments due in cash at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed percentage of the original principal balance of the loan unless otherwise
noted. Interest is accrued during the life of the loan on the EOT payment using the effective interest method as non-cash income. The EOT payment generally ceases accruing to the extent the borrower is unable to pay the remaining principal and
interest due.

Other income includes certain fees paid by portfolio companies and the recognition of the value of unfunded
commitments that expired during the reporting period.

Realized/Unrealized Gains or Losses

We measure realized gains or losses from the repayment or sale of investments using the specific identification method. The
amortized cost basis of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion/amortization of discounts and premiums and upfront loan origination fees. We report changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a
component of net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the consolidated statement of operations.

Management Fees

We accrue for the base management fee and incentive fee. The accrual for incentive fee includes the recognition of incentive
fee on unrealized capital gains, even though such incentive fee is neither earned nor payable to the Adviser until the gains are both realized and in excess of unrealized depreciation on investments.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes

We intend to elect to be treated, and intend to qualify annually thereafter, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, beginning
with our taxable year ending December 31, 2014. Generally, a RIC is not subject to U.S. federal income taxes on distributed income and gains if it distributes at least 90% of its net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of
its net long-term capital losses, if any, to its stockholders. Additionally, a RIC must distribute at least 98% of its ordinary income and 98.2% of its capital gain net income on an annual basis and any net ordinary income and net capital gains for
preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the RIC previously paid no U.S. federal income tax to avoid a U.S. federal excise tax. We intend to distribute sufficient dividends to maintain our RIC status each year
and do not anticipate paying any material U.S. federal income taxes in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, cash used in operating
activities, consisting primarily of purchases, sales and repayments of investments and the items described in Results of Operations, was approximately $238.4 million. Cash provided by financing activities, including net proceeds
from issuance of common stock and net borrowings, was approximately $245.3 million. As of December 31, 2014, cash, including restricted cash, was approximately $14.9 million.

As a BDC, we generally have an ongoing need to raise additional capital for investment purposes. As a result, we expect, from
time to time, to access the debt and equity markets when we believe it is necessary and appropriate to do so. In this regard, we continue to explore various options for obtaining additional debt or equity capital for investments. This may include
expanding or extending our credit facility, or the issuance of additional shares of our common stock of debt securities. If we are unable to obtain leverage or raise equity capital on terms that are acceptable to us, our ability to grow our
portfolio could be substantially impacted.

Contractual Obligations

In February 2014, we entered into a credit agreement with Deutsche Bank, acting as administrative agent and a lender, and
KeyBank National Association, Everbank Commercial Lender Finance, Inc., and AloStar Bank of Commerce, as other lenders, which provided us with a $150.0 million commitment, subject to borrowing base requirements. In August 2014, we amended
our Credit Facility to increase the total commitments available there under by $50.0 million to $200.0 million in aggregate.

We are a party to certain delay draw credit agreements with our portfolio companies, which
require us to make future advances at the companies discretion during a defined loan availability period. Our credit agreements contain customary lending provisions which allow us relief from funding obligations for previously made commitments
in instances where the underlying company experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the company. As of December 31, 2014, our unfunded commitments to 11 companies totaled $211.0 million of
which $40.5 million is dependent upon the companies reaching certain milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to them. These commitments are available for a limited time and $103.5 million will expire during 2015 and $107.5 million
will expire during 2016 if not drawn prior to expiration. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for us. Over time, we
generally expect approximately 75% of our gross unfunded commitments to be drawn before the expiration of their corresponding availability periods. We evaluate funding needs and expectations for each company at the time of commitment and as the
company progresses and develops during the availability period.

The Staff of the Division of Investment Management has
recently informed us that it views our unfunded commitments as senior securities under the 1940 Act. Although we do not agree with the Staffs position, we intend to comply with the Staffs position by either maintaining 200% asset
coverage or otherwise segregating or setting aside liquid assets or engaging in other SEC or staff-approved measures to cover our unfunded commitments in an amount required to comply with the 1940 Act.

As of December 31, 2014, we had a payable of approximately $50.0 million due January 2, 2015, for the acquisition of
U.S. Treasury bills. We sold the U.S. Treasury bills on January 2, 2015 and settled the payable in full.

In addition
to the contractual obligations set forth above, we have certain obligations with respect to the investment advisory and administration services we received during the period from March 4, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31,
2014. As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding obligations totaled approximately $4.6 million.

Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements

We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to
meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2014, our off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of $211.0 million of unfunded commitments, of which $40.5 million is dependent upon the companies reaching certain
milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to them. Our credit agreements contain customary lending provisions which allow us relief from funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying company
experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the company.

Distributions

In order to qualify as a RIC and to avoid corporate level tax on the income we distribute to our stockholders, we are required,
under Subchapter M of the Code, to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and net realized short-term capital gains in excess of net realized long-term capital losses to our stockholders on an annual basis. Additionally, we must distribute
at least 98% of our ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gain net income on an annual basis and any net ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we previously paid no U.S.
federal income tax to avoid a U.S. federal excise tax. To the extent our earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for a taxable year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax-free return of capital to our
stockholders. Our Adviser monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a tax-free return of capital may occur for the year. The tax character of distributions will be
determined at the end of the taxable year. Stockholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a dividend payment carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our taxable ordinary income or capital gains. The
specific tax characteristics of our distributions will be reported to stockholders after the end of the taxable year.

Related Parties

We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:



| |  |  | We have entered into the Advisory Agreement with our Adviser. Certain of our officers are also principals of the Adviser.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have entered into the Administration Agreement with our Administrator. Pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement, our Administrator

We have also adopted a Code of Ethics which applies to our senior
officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as all of our officers, directors and employees. Our Code of Ethics

requires that all employees and directors avoid any conflict, or the appearance of a conflict, between an individuals personal interests and our interests. Pursuant to our Code of Ethics,
each employee and director must disclose any conflicts of interest, or actions or relationships that might give rise to a conflict, to our Chief Compliance Officer. Our Audit Committee is charged with approving any waivers under our Code of Ethics.
As required by the New York Stock Exchange corporate governance listing standards, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors is also required to review and approve any transactions with related parties (as such term is defined in Item 404

Recent Developments

Dividends

On March 16, 2015, our Board announced a $0.36 per share regular quarterly dividend, payable on April 16, 2015 to
stockholders of record on March 26, 2015.

Recent Portfolio Activity

From January 1, 2015, through March 17, 2015, we funded approximately $10.2 million of investments and one customer,
Aerohive, Inc., prepaid a $2.5 million loan. As of March 17, 2015, our unfunded obligations to ten portfolio companies totaled $166.0 million. There can be no assurance that any of these unfunded commitments or any future obligations will be drawn
by the venture growth stage companies. During this period, TPCs direct origination platform entered into $40.0 million of non-binding signed term sheets with venture growth stage companies, which are subject to due diligence, definitive
documentation and investment committee approval, as well as compliance with TPCs allocation policy. As of March 17, 2015, TPC held $65.0 million of non-binding term sheets that have not been allocated pursuant to TPCs allocation policy.

In March 2015, we moved one of our portfolio companies, Coraid Inc., representing approximately 5% of our total assets as
of December 31, 2014, to Category 5 and non-accrual status. We have accelerated the outstanding obligations owed to us by this company and a third-party has entered into a non-binding term sheet that provides for it to purchase certain assets of the
company and to assume our loans to the company. There can be no assurance that events will not occur which may impact this or that we will not incur unrealized and/or realized losses as a result of these events which will adversely impact our
financial condition and results of operations.

There will be changes in the weighted average investment Credit Watch List
rating for our portfolio as of March 31, 2015, as a result of the event described above. In addition, there can be no assurance that there will not be further changes to the credit ranking of one or more of our portfolio companies.

|Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings and in the relative values of our portfolio that may result from
changes in the level of interest rates. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can
be no assurance that a change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. Because a majority of our loans in our existing portfolio, as of December 31, 2014, have a fixed interest rate, the
fair values of these loans may fluctuate from changes in market interest rates.

As of December 31, 2014, a majority
of the debt investments in our portfolio bore interest at fixed rates with $30.0 million in principal balance of loans outstanding subject to floating interest rates, all of which have interest rate floors. In the future, we may increase the amount
of loans in our portfolio subject to floating interest rates. Almost all our unfunded commitments float with changes in the prime rate from the date we enter into the commitment to the date of the actual draw. Our Credit Facility bears interest at a
floating rate. As a result, our future earnings may be negatively affected when interest rates rise. Based on our December 31, 2014 balance sheet, the following table shows the annual impact on net income of base rate changes in interest rates
(considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure.

This analysis is indicative of the potential impact on our investment income as of
December 31, 2014, assuming an immediate and sustained change in interest rates as noted. It should be noted that we anticipate growth in our portfolio funded in part with additional borrowings and such additional borrowings, all else
being equal, will increase our investment income sensitivity to interest rates, and such changes could be material. In addition, this analysis does not adjust for potential changes in our portfolio or our borrowing facilities nor does it take
into account any changes in the credit performance of our loans that might occur should interest rates change.

Since it
is our intention to hold loans to maturity, the fluctuating relative value of these loans that may occur due to changes in interest rate may have an impact on unrealized gains and losses during quarterly reporting periods. Based on our assessment of
the interest rate risk, as of December 31, 2014, we had no hedging transactions in place as we deemed the risk acceptable and we did not believe it was necessary to mitigate this risk at that time.

While hedging activities may mitigate our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates, certain hedging transactions
that we may enter into in the future, such as interest rate swap agreements, may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio investments. In addition, there can be no assurance that we
will be able to effectively hedge our interest rate risk.

Substantially all of our assets and liabilities are financial
in nature. As a result, changes in interest rates and other factors drive our performance more directly than does inflation. Changes in interest rates do not necessarily correlate with inflation rates or changes in inflation rates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp.

Menlo Park, California

We have
audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp. and subsidiaries (the Company), including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2014, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, cash flows and the consolidated financial highlights for the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an
audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of investments as of
December 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, borrowers and brokers, and where replies were not received, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31 , 2014, and the consolidated results of their operations, changes in their net assets, cash flows, and the financial highlights for the
period from March 5, 2014 (commencement in operations) to December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

TRIPLEPOINT VENTURE GROWTH BDC CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Organization

TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp. (the Company), a Maryland corporation, was formed on June 28, 2013 and
priced its initial public offering and commenced investment operations on March 5, 2014. The Company is structured as an externally-managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company that has elected to be treated as a business
development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). As a BDC, the Company expects to qualify annually as a regulated investment company (RIC) under Subchapter M of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code).

The Company was formed to expand the venture growth
stage business segment of TriplePoint Capital LLCs (TPC) investment platform. TPC is widely recognized as a leading global financing provider devoted to serving venture capital-backed companies with creative, flexible and
customized debt financing, equity capital and complementary services throughout their lifespan. The Companys investment objective is to maximize total return to stockholders primarily in the form of current income and, to a lesser extent,
capital appreciation by primarily lending to venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries backed by the TPCs select group of leading venture capital investors. The Company is
externally managed by TPVG Advisers LLC (the Adviser) which is registered as an investment adviser under the 1940 Act and is a wholly owned subsidiary of TPC. The Adviser is responsible for sourcing, reviewing and structuring
investment opportunities, underwriting and performing due diligence on investments and monitoring the investment portfolio on an ongoing basis. The Adviser was organized in August 2013 and, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement entered
into between the Company and the Adviser, the Company pays the Adviser a base management fee and an incentive fee for its services. The Company has also entered into an administration agreement with TPVG Administrator LLC (the
Administrator), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Adviser, and pays fees and expenses for services provided.

The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries; TPVG Variable Funding Company LLC (the Financing Subsidiary), a
bankruptcy remote special purpose entity established for utilizing the Companys revolving credit facility, and TPVG Investment LLC, an entity established for holding certain of the Companys investments in order to benefit from the tax
treatment of these investments and create a tax structure that is more advantageous with respect to the Companys RIC status. These subsidiaries are consolidated in the financial statements of the Company.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying financial statements of the Company and related financial information have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and
reclassifications that are necessary for the fair representation of financial results as of and for the periods presented. All intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and
assumptions to be made that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in the economic environment,
financial markets, creditworthiness of portfolio companies and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

##### Index to Financial Statements

Investments

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. The Company applies fair value to all its investments. Fair
value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the markets participant who holds the financial instrument rather than an entity specific measure. When market assumptions are not readily available, the Companys own
assumptions are set to reflect those that the Adviser believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instruments on the measurement date.

The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a variety of
factors. To the extent the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable the determination of fair value requires more judgment. The Companys valuation methodology is approved by the Companys Board of
Directors (the Board) and the Board is responsible for the fair values determined. As markets change, new types of investments are made, or pricing for certain investments becomes more or less observable, the Board may refine its
valuation methodologies appropriately.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company places its cash with financial institutions and at times, cash held in such accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation insured limit. The Company may invest a portion of its cash in money market funds, within the limitations of the 1940 Act.

Deferred Credit Facility Costs

Deferred credit facility costs represent fees and other expenses incurred in connection with the Companys revolving
credit facility. These amounts are amortized and included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the estimated term of the facility.

Other Accrued Expenses and Liabilities

Other accrued expenses and liabilities include interest payable, accounts payable and unfunded commitment liabilities. Unfunded
commitment liabilities reflect the fact that the Company is a party to certain delay draw credit agreements with its portfolio companies, which requires the Company to make future advances at the borrowers discretion during a defined loan
availability period. The Companys credit agreements contain customary lending provisions which allow the Company relief from funding previously made commitments in instances where the underlying portfolio company experiences materially adverse
events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the portfolio company. In certain instances, the borrower may be required to achieve certain milestones before they may request a future advance. The unfunded obligation associated
with these credit agreements is equal to the amount by which the contractual funding commitment exceeds the sum of the amount of funded debt unless the availability period has expired. The fair value at the inception of the agreement of the delay
draw credit agreements approximates the fair value of the warrants received to enter into these agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties credit profile. The unfunded commitment liability
included in the Companys consolidated statement of assets and liabilities reflects the fair value of these future funding commitments.

Paid-in Capital

The Company records the proceeds from the sale of its common stock on a net basis to capital stock and paid-in capital in
excess of par value, excluding all offering costs.

Income Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of market premium and accretion of market discount, is recorded on an accrual basis
to the extent that the Company expects to collect such amounts. Original issue discount,

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

principally representing the estimated fair value of detachable equity or warrants obtained in conjunction with the Companys debt investments, and market discount or premium are capitalized
and accreted or amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees received in connection with the closing of investments are reported as unearned income which is
included as amortized cost of the investment; the unearned income from such fees is accreted over the contractual life of the loan based on the effective interest method as interest income. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, unamortized
loan origination fees and unamortized market discounts are recorded as interest income. End-of-term (EOT) payments are contractual and fixed interest payments due in cash at the maturity date of the loan, including upon prepayment, and are a fixed
percentage of the original principal balance of the loan unless otherwise noted. Interest is accrued during the life of the loan on the EOT payment using the effective interest method as non-cash income. The EOT payment generally ceases
accruing to the extent the borrower is unable to pay the remaining principal and interest due.

Other income includes
certain fees paid by portfolio companies and the recognition of the value of unfunded commitments that expired during the reporting period.

Realized/Unrealized Gains or Losses

The Company measures realized gains or losses from the repayment or sale of investments using the specific identification
method. The amortized cost basis of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion/amortization of discounts and premiums and upfront loan origination fees. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments that are
measured at fair value as a component of net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the consolidated statement of operations.

Management Fees

The Company accrues for the base management fee and incentive fee. The accrual for incentive fee includes the recognition of
incentive fees on unrealized gains, even though such incentive fees are neither earned nor payable to the Adviser until the gains are both realized and in excess of unrealized depreciation on investments.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes

The Company intends to elect to be treated, and intends to qualify annually thereafter, as a RIC under Subchapter M the Code,
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, beginning with the Companys taxable year ending December 31, 2014. Generally, a RIC is not subject to U.S. federal income taxes on distributed income and gains if it distributes at least 90% of its
net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of its net long-term capital losses, if any, to its stockholders. Additionally, a RIC must distribute at least 98% of its ordinary income and 98.2% of its capital gain net income on an
annual basis and any net ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the RIC previously paid no U.S. federal income tax to avoid a U.S. federal excise tax. The Company
intends to distribute sufficient dividends to maintain the Companys RIC status each year and does not anticipate paying any material U.S. federal income taxes in the future.

Dividends and Distributions

Dividends to common stockholders are recorded on the date the Board declares a dividend. The Board determines the amount
of dividends to be paid each quarter based on a variety of factors including estimates of future earnings. Net realized capital gains, if any, are intended to be distributed at least annually. The Company will calculate both its current and
accumulated earnings and profits on a tax basis in order to determine the amount of any distribution that constituted a return of capital to the Companys stockholders and that while such distributions are not taxable, they may result in higher
capital gains taxes when the shares are eventually sold.

Organizational and Offering Costs

The Company incurred $1.75 million in offering costs in completing its initial public offering, which were charged against
paid-in capital. Organizational and offering costs in excess of this amount were paid by the Adviser. None of the expenses borne by the Adviser in connection with the Companys initial public offering above the $1.75 million threshold are
subject to recoupment from the Company. Following the Companys initial public offering, it expects to be responsible for all of its ongoing organizational and offering expenses.

Per Share Information

Basic and diluted earnings per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period presented. For the period presented, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same since there are no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Note 3. Related Party Agreements and Transactions

Acquisition of Initial Portfolio

On March 5, 2014, the Company acquired from TPC and certain of its subsidiaries, a select portfolio of investments in
venture growth stage companies originated through TPC consisting of funded debt and direct equity investments, future funding commitments and warrants associated with both the funded debt investments and future funding commitments. This initial
portfolio included 23 secured loans with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $119.2 million, two equity investments of approximately $2.0 million and warrants to purchase shares in 15 portfolio companies of approximately
$3.2 million. The valuation of this initial portfolio was conducted by the Board in consultation with the Adviser and consideration of valuations performed by a third party valuation firm.

The funding for the acquisition of this portfolio was provided through a credit facility (the Bridge Facility)
with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (Deutsche Bank). The fees and expenses associated with entering into the Bridge Facility were covered by TPC. The Bridge Facility, along with the interest expense incurred thereon, was repaid
in full on March 11, 2014, with a portion of the proceeds from the initial public offering.

Investment Advisory Agreement

Prior to the commencement of operations, the Board approved an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory
Agreement). Subject to the overall supervision of the Board and in accordance with 1940 Act, the Adviser manages the day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory services to the Company. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the
Adviser:

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the
Adviser a fee for its investment advisory and management services consisting of two componentsa base management fee and an incentive fee. The cost of both the base management fee and incentive fee is ultimately borne by the Companys
stockholders.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of the
Companys average adjusted gross assets, including assets purchased with borrowed funds. For services rendered under the Advisory Agreement, the base management is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the
average value of the Companys gross assets at the end of its two most recently completed calendar quarters. Such amount is appropriately adjusted (based on the actual number of days elapsed relative to the total number of days in such calendar
quarter) for any share issuance or repurchases during a calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial month or quarter are appropriately pro-rated.

The incentive fee, which provides the Adviser with a share of the income it generates for the Company, consists of two
componentsinvestment income and capital gainswhich are largely independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not payable.

Under the investment income component, the Company pays the Adviser 20.0% of the amount by which the Companys
pre-incentive fee net investment income for the quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) of the Companys net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a catch-up provision
pursuant to which the Adviser receives all of such income in excess of the 2.0% level but less than 2.5% and subject to a total return requirement. The effect of the catch-up provision is that, subject to the total return provision
discussed below, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter, the Adviser receives 20.0% of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income as if the 2.0% hurdle rate did not apply. The foregoing
incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no incentive fee in respect of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income is payable except to the extent that 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net
assets resulting from operations since the effective date of the Companys election to be treated as a BDC exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid since the effective date of the Companys election to be treated as a BDC.
In other words, any investment income incentive fee that is payable in a calendar quarter is limited to the lesser of (i) 20.0% of the amount by which the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter exceeds
the 2.0% hurdle, subject to the catch-up provision and (ii) (x) 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since the effective date of the Companys election to be treated as a BDC minus
(y) the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid since the effective date of the Companys election to be treated as a BDC. For the foregoing purpose, the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations is
the sum of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation since the effective date of the Companys election to be treated as a BDC. The Company elected to
be treated as a BDC on March 5, 2014.

Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital
gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where it incurs a loss, subject to the total
return requirement described in the preceding paragraph. For example, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, the Company may pay the applicable incentive fee even if it has
incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses subject to the total return requirement. The Companys net investment income used to calculate this component of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of
the Companys assets used to calculate the 1.75% base management fee. These calculations are appropriately pro-rated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuance or repurchase during the current quarter.

Under the capital gains component of the incentive fee, the Company pays the Adviser at the end of each calendar year 20.0% of
the Companys aggregate cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of that year, computed net of aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized depreciation through the end of such year,
less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. For the foregoing purpose, the Companys aggregate cumulative realized capital gains does not include any unrealized appreciation. It should be
noted that the Company accrues an incentive fee for accounting purposes taking into account any unrealized appreciation in accordance with GAAP. The capital gains

component of the incentive fee is not subject to any minimum return to stockholders. If such amount is negative, then no capital gains incentive fee is payable for such year. Additionally, if the
Advisory Agreement is terminated as of a date that is not a calendar year end, the termination date will be treated as though it were a calendar year end for purposes of calculating and paying the capital gains incentive fee.

The base management fee accrued and payable, income incentive fee accrued and payable, and capital gains incentive fee accrued
are included in the Companys consolidated financial statements and summarized in the table below. The Adviser has agreed not to include the U.S. Treasury bills acquired at the end of each quarter of 2014 in the calculation of gross assets for
purposes of determining its base management fee. There were no realized capital gains since the inception of the Company and, thus, no capital gains incentive fee was earned or is payable. The Company did have unrealized appreciation during the
period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014 and accrued a capital gains incentive fee equal to 20% of that amount.

During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014,
approximately $0.8 million of the base management fee was paid and $0.2 million of the income incentive fee was paid.

Administration Agreement

Prior to the commencement of operations, the Board approved an administration agreement (the Administration
Agreement). The Administration Agreement provides that the Administrator is responsible for furnishing the Company with office facilities and equipment and provide the Company with clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping services and other
administrative services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or oversees, or arranges for, the performance of the Companys required administrative services, which includes being responsible for
the financial and other records which the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports to the Companys stockholders and reports and other materials filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and any other
regulatory authority. In addition, the Administrator assists the Company in determining and publishing net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of the Companys tax returns and printing and disseminating reports and other
materials to the Companys stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of the Companys expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. Under the Administration Agreement,
the Administrator also provides managerial assistance on the Companys behalf to those companies that have accepted the Companys offer to provide such assistance.

Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an amount equal to the Companys allocable portion (subject to
the review of the Board) of the Administrators overhead resulting from its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and the allocable portion of the cost of the chief compliance officer and chief financial officer and
their respective staffs. In addition, if requested to provide significant managerial assistance to the Companys portfolio companies, the Administrator is paid an additional amount based on the services provided, which shall not exceed the
amount the Company receives from such companies for providing this assistance.

The Administrator engages a
sub-administrator to provide certain administrative services. For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, expenses paid or payable by the Company to the Administrator under the Administration
Agreement were approximately $1.1 million of which approximately $0.2 million was paid or payable to third party service providers.

Note 4. Investments

The Company measures the value of its investments at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic
820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The Valuation Committee of the Board is
responsible for assisting the Board in valuing investments that are not publicly traded or for which current market values are not readily available. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations,
which are generally obtained from independent pricing services, broker-dealers or market makers. With respect to portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Board, with the assistance of the Adviser and its
senior investment team and independent valuation agents, is responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair value in accordance with the valuation policy approved by the Board. If more than one valuation method is used to measure fair value,
the results are evaluated and weighted, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. The Adviser considers a range of fair values based upon the valuation techniques utilized and generally selects a value
within that range that most represents fair value based on current market conditions as well as other factors the Advisers senior investment team considers relevant. The Board makes this fair value determination on at least a quarterly basis
or at such other times when the Board feels it would be appropriate to do so given the circumstances. A determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates and depends on the facts and circumstances. Due to the inherent
uncertainty of determining the fair value of portfolio investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market
value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

ASC Topic 820 specifies a hierarchy of
valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance regarding a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes information used to measure fair value and the
effect of fair value measurements on earnings and provides for enhanced disclosures determined by the level within the hierarchy of information used in the valuation. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, these inputs are summarized in the three levels
listed below.

Level 1Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2Valuations are based
on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable.

Level 3Valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair
value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models incorporating significant unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow models and other similar valuations
techniques. The valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities generally requires significant management judgment due to the inability to observe inputs to valuation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such
cases, an investments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of observable input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Companys assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair
value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and it considers factors specific to the investment.

Under ASC 820,
the fair value measurement also assumes that the transaction to sell an asset occurs in the principal market for the asset or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset, which may be a hypothetical market, and
excludes transaction costs. The principal market for any asset is the



105



---

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

market with the greatest volume and level of activity for such asset in which the reporting entity would or could sell or transfer the asset. In determining the principal market for an asset or
liability, it is assumed that the reporting entity has access to such market as of the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable and
willing and able to transact.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the
Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the Advisers professionals that
are responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with the Advisers senior investment team;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Valuation Committee then reviews these preliminary valuations and makes fair value recommendations to the Board;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment will be reviewed by an independent valuation firm. However, the Board does not
intend to have de minimis investments of less than 1.0% of the Companys gross assets (up to an aggregate of 10.0% of the Companys gross assets) independently reviewed; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Board then discusses valuations and determines, in good faith, the fair value of each investment in the Companys portfolio based on the
input of the Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms and the Valuation Committee.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Debt Investments

The debt investments identified on the consolidated schedule of investments are loans and equipment financings made to
venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries which are backed by a select group of leading venture capital investors. These investments are considered Level 3 assets under ASC Topic 820
because there is no known or accessible market or market indices for these types of debt instruments and thus the Advisers senior management team must estimate the fair value of these investment securities based on models utilizing
unobservable inputs.

To estimate the fair value of debt investments, the Company compares the cost basis of each debt
investment, which includes original issue discount, to the resulting fair value determined using a discounted cash flow model, unless another model is more appropriate based on the circumstances at the measurement date. The discounted cash flow
approach entails analyzing the interest rate spreads for recently completed financing transactions which are similar in nature to these debt investments, in order to determine a comparable range of effective market interest rates. The range of
interest rate spreads utilized is based on borrowers with similar credit profiles. All remaining expected cash flows of the investment are discounted using this range of interest rates to determine a range of fair values for the debt investment.

This valuation process includes, among other things, evaluating the underlying investment performance and the portfolio
companys current financial condition and ability to raise additional capital, as well as macro-economic events that may impact valuations. These events include, but are not limited to, current market yields and interest rate spreads of
similar securities as of the measurement date. Changes in these unobservable inputs could result in significantly different fair value measurements.

Under certain circumstances, an alternative technique may be used to value certain debt investments that better reflected the
fair value of the investment, such as the price paid or realized in a recently completed transaction or a binding offer received in an arms length transaction, the use of multiple probability weighted cash flow models when the expected future
cash flows contain elements of variability or estimates of proceeds that would be received in a liquidation scenario.

Warrants

The fair value of the warrants is primarily estimated using a Black Scholes option pricing model. Privately held warrants and
equity-related securities are valued based on an analysis of various factors, but not limited to, the following:



| |  |  | Underlying enterprise value of the issuer is estimated based on information available, including any information regarding the most recent rounds
of borrower funding. Valuation techniques to determine enterprise value include market multiple approaches, income approaches or approaches that utilize recent rounds of financing and the portfolio companys capital structure to determine
enterprise value. Valuation techniques are also utilized to allocate the enterprise fair value of a portfolio company to the specific class of common or preferred stock exercisable in the warrant. Such techniques take into account the rights
and preferences of the portfolio companys securities, expected exit scenarios, and volatility associated with such outcomes to allocate the fair value to the specific class of stock held in the portfolio. Such techniques included option
pricing models, including back solve techniques, probability weighted expected return models and other techniques as determined to be appropriate.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Volatility, or the amount of uncertainty or risk about the size of the changes in the warrant price, is based on comparable publicly traded
companies within indices similar in nature to the underlying company issuing the warrant. Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The risk-free interest rates are derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The risk-free interest rates are calculated based on a weighted
average of the risk-free interest rates that correspond closest to the expected remaining life of the warrant. Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other adjustments, including a marketability discount on private company warrants, are estimated based on the Advisers judgment about the
general industry environment. Changes in this unobservable input could result in a significantly different fair value.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Historical portfolio experience on cancellations and exercises of warrants are utilized as the basis for determining the estimated life of the
warrants in each financial reporting period. Warrants may be exercised in the event of acquisitions, mergers or initial public offerings, and cancelled due to events such as bankruptcies, restructuring activities or additional financings. These
events cause the expected remaining life assumption to be shorter than the contractual term of the warrants. Increases (decreases) in this unobservable input could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under certain circumstances alternative techniques may be used to value certain warrants that better reflect the
warrants fair values, such as an expected settlement of a warrant in the near term, a model that incorporates a put feature associated with the warrant, or the price paid or realized in a recently completed transaction or binding offer
received in an arms length transaction. The fair value may be determined based on the expected proceeds to be received from such settlement or based on the net present value of the expected proceeds from the put option.

These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment. There is no single standard for determining the
estimated fair value of investments which do not have an active public market. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, as they are based on estimates, and their values may fluctuate over time. The determination of fair
value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market for these investments existed. In some cases, the fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing different
methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined.

Equity Investments

The fair value of an equity investment in a privately held company is initially the amount invested. The Company adjusts the
fair value of equity investments in private companies upon the completion of a new third



107

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

party round of equity financing subsequent to its investment. The Company may make adjustments to fair value, absent a new equity financing event, based upon positive or negative changes in a
portfolio companys financial or operational performance. The Company may also reference comparable transactions and/or secondary market transactions of comparable companies to estimate fair value. These valuation methodologies involve a
significant degree of judgment. The fair value of an equity investment in a publicly traded company is based upon the closing public share price on the date of measurement. These assets are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. There is no
single standard for determining the estimated fair value of investments which do not have an active public market. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, as they are based on estimates, and their values may fluctuate over
time. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market for these investments existed. In some cases, the fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived
utilizing different methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined.

The following is a summary by
investment type of the fair value according to inputs used in valuing investments listed in the accompanying consolidated schedule of investments as of December 31, 2014.

During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31,
2014, there were no transfers in or out of any levels.

The following table presents additional information about Level 3
investments measured at fair value for the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. Both observable and unobservable inputs were used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company
has classified within the Level 3 category. As a result, the net unrealized gains and losses for assets within the Level 3 category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable
(e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities) inputs.

As of December 31, 2014, the fair values for all the Companys debt investments were
estimated using discounted cash flow models based on anticipated cash flows and a discount rate deemed most appropriate for each investment given the facts and circumstances specific to each portfolio company and market yields at the reporting
date. For all but three warrants, fair values were estimated using an Option-Pricing Method that values individual equity classes based on their economic rights and preferences using the Black Scholes Option-Pricing Model. Three warrant
positions and one equity investment were valued using a combination of the Option-Pricing Method and the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method given the outlook for that company. The other equity
investments were valued using the market approach. The range of the various assumptions and weighted averages of these assumptions are summarized in the table above.

As of December 31, 2014, the fair value of debt investments, in the aggregate, closely approximated cost basis given that
the portfolio was recently acquired or originated by the Company. Over time, it is expected that fair values and cost bases for these investments may vary.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had pledged certain of its debt
investments and certain of its warrants with an aggregate fair value of approximately $239.8 million for borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Note 5. Credit Risk

Debt investments may be affected by business, financial market or legal uncertainties. Prices of investments may be volatile,
and a variety of factors that are inherently difficult to predict, such as domestic, economic and political developments, may significantly affect the value of these investments. In addition, the value of these investments may fluctuate as the
general level of interest rates fluctuate.

In many instances, the portfolio companys ability to repay the debt
investments is dependent on additional funding by its venture capital investors, a future sale or an initial public offering. The value of these investments may be detrimentally affected to the extent a borrower defaults on its obligations, there is
insufficient collateral and/or there are extensive legal and other costs incurred in collecting on a defaulted loan.

As
of December 31, 2014, the Company had no delinquencies and no credit losses on any of its debt investments.

Note 6. Borrowings

Bridge Facility

In February 2014, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Deutsche Bank for the purpose of acquiring its initial
portfolio. On March 5, 2014, the Company borrowed approximately $121.7 million under this facility. On March 11, 2014, the Company paid this borrowing in full with a portion of the net proceeds received in the Companys
initial public offering. The Company paid approximately $25 thousand of interest on this facility. All other fees and expenses associated with entering into this facility were paid by TPC.

Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2014, the Company, along with its Financing Subsidiary as borrower, entered into a credit agreement with
Deutsche Bank acting as administrative agent and a lender, and KeyBank National Association, Everbank Commercial Lender Finance, Inc., and AloStar Bank of Commerce, as other lenders, which provided the Company with a $150.0 million commitment,
subject to borrowing base requirements, or Credit Facility. In August 2014, the Company amended its Credit Facility to increase the total commitments available there under by $50.0 million to $200.0 million in aggregate.

Borrowings under this revolving Credit Facility bear interest at the sum of (i) the commercial paper rate for certain
specified lenders and 30-day LIBOR for other lenders or, if LIBOR is unavailable, the higher of Deutsche Banks commercial lending rate or the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% plus (ii) a margin of 3.5% during the revolving period and 4.5%
during the amortization period. Borrowings under this revolving credit facility are secured only by the assets of the Financing Subsidiary. The Company agreed to pay to Deutsche Bank a syndication fee in 12 monthly installments, of approximately 1%
of the committed facility amount. The Company also agreed to pay Deutsche Bank a fee to act as administrative agent under this revolving Credit Facility and to pay each lender (i) a commitment fee of 0.65% multiplied by such lenders
commitment on the effective date in 12 equal monthly installments and (ii) a fee of approximately 0.75% per annum of any unused borrowings under this Credit Facility on a monthly basis. This revolving credit facility contains affirmative
and restrictive covenants, including but not limited to an advance rate limitation of approximately 55% of the applicable net loan balance of assets held by the Financing Subsidiary, maintenance of minimum net worth at an agreed level, a ratio of
total assets to total indebtedness of not less than approximately 2:1, a key man clause relating to the Companys Chief Executive Officer Mr. James Labe and the Companys President and Chief Investment Officer Mr. Sajal Srivastava and
eligibility requirements, including but not limited to geographic and industry concentration limitations and certain loan grade classifications. Furthermore, events of default under this

credit facility include, among other things, (i) a payment default; (ii) a change of control; (iii) bankruptcy; (iv) a covenant default; and, (v) the Companys
failure to maintain compliance with RIC provisions at all times. As of December 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under this credit facility.

At December 31, 2014, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $118.0 million under its revolving credit facility, which
is included in the Companys consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. Interest expense on these borrowings includes the interest cost charged on borrowings, the unused fee on the credit facility, paying and administrative agent
fees, and the amortization of deferred credit facility fees and expenses. For the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, interest expense on the revolving credit facility totaled approximately $3.9
million, consisting of approximately $2.3 million of interest expense, approximately $0.6 million of unused facilities expense, and approximately $1.0 million of amortization of deferred credit facility costs and other fees.

Other Payables

On December 30, 2014, the Company purchased $50.0 million of U.S. Treasury bills for settlement on January 2,
2015. The associated payable is included in the Companys consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.

Note
7. Commitments

As of December 31, 2014, the Companys unfunded commitments to 11 companies totaled
$211.0 million, of which $40.5 million are dependent upon the companies reaching certain milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to them. Of the $211.0 million of unfunded commitments, $103.5 million will expire during 2015 and
$107.5 million will expire during 2016 if not drawn prior to expiration. As of December 31, 2014, $201.0 million of the Companys unfunded commitments were with technology-related companies and $10.0 million were with non-technology
related companies. In addition, $206.0 million represent commitments for growth capital loans and $5.0 million for revolving loans. The Companys credit agreements contain customary lending provisions which allow the Company relief from
funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying portfolio company experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the portfolio company. Since these commitments
may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. The Company generally expects approximately 75% of its gross unfunded commitments to eventually
be drawn before the expiration of their corresponding availability periods. The table below provides the Companys unfunded commitments by customer as of December 31, 2014.

Note 11. Equity Offerings

On March 5, 2014, the Company issued 9,840,665 shares of common stock through an initial public offering and a concurrent
private placement offering and received net proceeds of approximately $143.3 million. A portion of the offering costs, or $1.75 million, were borne by the Company and charged against paid-in capital. The Adviser agreed to pay the balance of the
organizational and offering costs and a portion of the front end sales charges, which amounts are not subject to recoupment from the Company. Following the Companys initial public offering, it expects to be responsible for all of its ongoing
organizational and offering expenses.

The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan for its stockholders, which is
an opt out dividend reinvestment plan. Under this plan, if the Company declares a cash distribution to stockholders, the amount of such distribution is automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock unless a stockholder
specifically opts out of the dividend reinvestment plan. If a stockholder opts out, that stockholder receives cash distributions.

Information on the proceeds raised along with any related front end sales charges and associated offering expenses, and the
price at which common stock was issued by the Company, during the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, is provided in the following table.

Prior to the Companys initial public offering, there were 1,668 shares of
common stock outstanding. As a result of the stock issuance summarized above 9,924,171 shares of common stock were outstanding as of December 31, 2014.

Note 12. Dividends

The Company intends to elect to be treated, and intends to qualify annually thereafter, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the
Code, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, beginning with the Companys taxable year ending December 31, 2014. In order to qualify as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of the Companys
net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of its net long-term capital losses, if any, to its stockholders. Additionally, the Company must distribute at least 98% of the Companys ordinary income and 98.2% of the
Companys capital gain net income on an annual basis and any net ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Company previously paid no U.S. federal income tax to avoid
a U.S. federal excise tax. The Company intends to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of the Companys investment company taxable income and net capital gains to stockholders. The character of income and gains that the
Company distributes is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified
to paid-in capital.

The following table summarizes the Companys cash distributions per share as authorized by the
Companys Board of Directors since March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations).

|(1) | The amount of this initial distribution reflected a quarterly dividend rate of $0.30 per share, prorated for the 27 days for the period from
the pricing of the Companys initial public offering on March 5, 2014 through March 31, 2014.

|(2) | Represents a special dividend.
|--- | ------------------------------

It is the Companys intention to distribute all or substantially of its taxable income earned over the course of the
year. For this period, total dividends of $1.22 per share have been declared and paid and all deemed a distribution of ordinary income as the Companys earnings and profits for 2014 exceeded its distributions. The Company estimates it has
approximately $1.1 million of remaining taxable earnings to distribute to stockholders and this spillover income will be included in the dividends declared in and paid in 2015.

Note 13. Taxable Income

The Company intends to elect to be treated and intend to qualify each year as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a
RIC, the Company generally does not pay corporate-level federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that the Company timely distributes to its stockholders as dividends. It is the
Companys intention to distribute 100% of its annual taxable income to its stockholders and thus, no provision for income tax has been recorded in the Companys consolidated statements of operations for the period from March 5, 2014
(commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. The table below provides an estimate of taxable income before deductions of distributions.

The Company distributed approximately $12.1 million in dividends through four regular
quarterly dividends and one special dividend during the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014. The Company will distribute the approximately $1.2 million of as yet undistributed taxable income in 2015
to meet its intention of distributing all of the taxable income earned in the calendar year 2014. As a result of this spillover income, the Company incurred a non-deductible excise tax of approximately $48 thousand.

Recent Portfolio Activity

From January 1, 2015, through March 17, 2015, the Company funded approximately $10.2 million of investments and one
customer, Aerohive, Inc. prepaid a $2.5 million loan. As of March 17, 2015, the Companys unfunded obligations to ten portfolio companies totaled $166.0 million. There can be no assurance that any of these unfunded commitments or any
future obligations will be drawn by the venture growth stage companies. During the period, TPCs direct origination platform entered into $40.0 million of non-binding signed term sheets with venture growth stage companies, which are
subject to due diligence, definitive documentation and investment committee approval, as well as compliance with TPCs allocation policy. As of March 17, 2015, TPC held $65.0 million of non-binding term sheets that have not been allocated
pursuant to TPCs allocation policy.

In March 2015, the Company moved one of its portfolio companies, Coraid Inc.,
representing approximately 5% of the Companys total assets as of December 31, 2014, to Category 5 and non-accrual status. The Company has accelerated the outstanding obligations owed to the Company by this company and a third party has
entered into a non-binding term sheet that provides for it to purchase certain assets of the company and to assume the Companys loans to the company.



|Item 9. | Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

None.



|Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures
|-------- | -----------------------

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15, have concluded that as of December 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective to give reasonable assurances to the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure of information relating to us that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
there under.

During the period from March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2014, there was
no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. This annual report on Form 10-K does not include a report of
managements assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by the rules of the SEC for newly public companies.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within us to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in our periodic reports.



|Item 9B. | Other Information
|-------- | -----------------

None.
