Page 4 Deal Structure: Cash Component • Two components to cash portion of merger consideration : • Cash from Runway Growth Finance Corp . (NASDAQ : RWAY) (" RWAY "), which is based on a formulaic structure • Additional $9 . 0 M fixed cash payment from RWAY's external manager, Runway Growth Capital LLC (" RWAY Manager ") • For formulaic component from RWAY : • Start with SWK's NAV, which will be calculated 48 hours prior to Close • Deduct (i) DTA, (ii) intangible assets, (iii) SWK transaction expenses paid at Close • Deduct fixed $75 . 5 M for RWAY stock component of consideration • This will be the cash component paid from RWAY • Finally, add the $9 . 0 M of additional cash from RWAY Manager for total cash paid to SWK at Close • NAV at Close is roughly comparable to SWK's tangible book value

![](image_005.jpg)

Page 5 Deal Structure: Stock Component • Shareholders will receive a fixed $75 . 5 M of RWAY shares, subject to a 19 . 9 % cap relative to RWAY's outstanding common stock • The final number of shares to be distributed will vary based on RWAY's NAV, which will be calculated 48 hours prior to Close • Final total is expected to be calculated as $75 . 5 M/ RWAY's NAV per share at Close • RWAY's NAV per share at 9 / 30 / 25 was $13 . 55 • Thus, as of 9 / 30 / 25 , $75 . 5 M/ $13 . 55 = ~ 5 . 572 M total shares (0 . 461 / SWK share 1) • Based on RWAY's 20 - day VWAP (as of November 6 , 2025) of $9 . 85 , the shares have a market value of ~ $54 . 9 M ($4 . 54 / SWK share 1) • $75 . 5 M book value of equity received will remain static, subject to the 19 . 9 % cap • If RWAY's NAV per share increases, SWK receives fewer shares • Conversely, if RWAY NAV per share declines, SWK receives more shares • Sole determinate of market value of stock component at Close will be RWAY stock price (1) Based on ~ 12 . 1 M of SWK shares outstanding

Page 6 Deal Structure: Putting it All Together • See below illustration of total value computations as of 3 Q 25 and a template for approximating deal value at Close FN# Calculation Est. Closing Template (1) 3Q25 (to Illustrate) ($s and shares in Ms; $/share actual) (1) A $254.2 $254.2 3Q25 Reported NAV B - 19.3 - 19.3 less: DTA (2) C - $[6.0] - $[6.0] less: Est. Tx Expenses and B/S Adj. (3) D +/ - [TBD] +/ - [TBD] plus/minus: final portfolio marks (4) E +TBD n.a. plus: Cumulative Net Income to Close F = A + B + C + D + E TBD $228.9 Est. Adj. Closing NAV G - $75.5 - $75.5 less: RWAY Stock – Book Value H = F + G TBD $153.4 RWAY Cash Component I $75.5 $75.5 RWAY Stock – Book Value (5) J TBD ~0.73x RWAY Price/Book K = I \* J TBD $54.9 RWAY Stock – Market Value (6) L $9.0 $9.0 Additional Cash from Manager M = H + K + L TBD $217.3 Total Value @ Market N 12.1 12.1 SWK Shares Outstanding O = M / N TBD ~$18.00 Total Value @ Mkt./Share (1) Note that the "Est . Closing Template" column contains most - recently published SWK 3 Q 25 B/S figures (e . g . , NAV, DTA, etc .) . This is for the purpose of approximating Closing value via use of estimates for bracketed figures . Said values will ultimately be computed 48 hours prior to Close of the transaction . (2) Will capture deal - related expenses paid at Close by SWK and certain other balance sheet adjustments (namely, accelerated recognition of SWK debt issuance fees) ; expected to be approximately $6 M , but are still TBD . (3) Will capture final third - party adjudicated marks vs . SWK - determined marks . (4) This is credit/payment for cumulative net income generated from 3 Q 25 to closing of the transaction, which is expected in early 2026 . SWK has previously said ~ $5 M/Q is a reasonable assumption for net income, assuming no portfolio impairments . (5) Based on RWAY's 20 - day VWAP (as of November 6 , 2025) of $9 . 85 and 3 Q 25 NAV per share of $13 . 55 (6) This is additional cash from RWAY Manager ; figure is fixed dollar amount and unimpacted by the cash paid by RWAY Footnotes Cash component (from RWAY) starts with SWK's NAV (48 hours prior to Close), excluding the deferred tax asset and intangibles, then deducts SWK transaction expenses paid at Close . From that adjusted value, $75 . 5 M RWAY book value stock is subtracted to determine the RWAY cash component . To estimate total per - share market value, take RWAY cash component and add to it (i) the market value of the RWAY stock and (i) $9 . 0 M of cash paid by manager, then divide by SWK shares . • Published Figures : 3 Q 25 B/S figures (NAV, DTA, etc .) • Fixed Figures : $75 . 5 M book value of RWAY stock (subject to 19 . 9 % cap), $9 . 0 M from RWAY Manager • Pending Figures : Cumulative PTNI between 3 Q 25 and Close, SWK Transaction expenses at Close, third - party adjudicated portfolio marks, RWAY stock price Commentary Value Build Up / Calculation
