On March 9, 2023, Crescent Capital BDC, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("CCAP") completed its previously announced acquisition of First Eagle Alternative Capital BDC, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("FCRD"), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of October 3, 2022, by and among CCAP, FCRD, Echelon Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CCAP ("Acquisition Sub"), Echelon Acquisition Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CCAP ("Acquisition Sub 2"), and Crescent Cap Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the external investment adviser to CCAP ("CCAP Advisor"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub was merged with and into FCRD (the "First Merger"), with FCRD continuing as the surviving corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CCAP. Immediately following the First Merger, FCRD was merged with and into Acquisition Sub 2 (the "Second Merger"), with Acquisition Sub 2 continuing as the surviving entity (the "Surviving Company"). As a result of, and as of the effective time of, the Second Merger, FCRD's separate corporate existence ceased. On March 9, 2023, CCAP and the Surviving Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Third Merger Agreement"). Pursuant to the Third Merger Agreement, the Surviving Company merged with and into CCAP, with CCAP continuing as the surviving entity. CCAP has elected to be regulated as a business development company under section 54(a) of the Act.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, CCAP, as successor by merger to the Surviving Company, a successor by merger to FCRD, has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
