July 8, 2025

Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting (the "Annual Meeting") of Stockholders of Oxford Square Capital Corp. (the "Company," "OXSQ," "we," "us" or "our") to be held on August 20, 2025 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, in the second floor conference room of the Company's corporate headquarters located at 8 Sound Shore Drive, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830. Stockholders of record of the Company at the close of business on June 25, 2025 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Details of the business to be conducted at the Annual Meeting are provided in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and 2025 Proxy Statement.

It is very important that your shares be represented at the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend, we hope you will vote as soon as possible. If you are unable to participate at the Annual Meeting, we urge you to follow the instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to vote your proxy on the Internet. We encourage you to vote via the Internet, as it saves us significant time and processing costs. However, on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, you will also find instructions on how to request a hard copy of the proxy statement and proxy card free of charge and you may vote your proxy by returning your proxy card to us after you request the hard copy materials. Returning the proxy or voting by Internet or telephone does not deprive you of your right to attend the Annual Meeting and to vote your shares in person.

We reserve the right to reconsider the date, time, and/or means of convening the Annual Meeting, including holding the Annual Meeting by means of remote communications. If we take this step, we will announce the decision to do so in advance, and details on how to participate in the meeting will be issued by press release and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as additional proxy material. We urge you to retain your control or proxy voting number after you vote in case changes are made to the meeting format and such information is again required.

We look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting. Your vote and participation, no matter how many or how few shares you own, are very important to us.

You have the right to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting if you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on June 25, 2025 We are furnishing the proxy statement and proxy card to our stockholders on the Internet, available at *http://www.proxy*-direct*.com/oxf*-34572, rather than mailing printed copies of those materials to each stockholder. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy statement and proxy card unless you request them. Instead, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will instruct you as to how you may access and review the proxy statement, and vote your proxy, on the internet. You may request hard copy proxy materials at no charge to you by following the instructions provided in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.

Whether or not you expect to be present in person at the Annual Meeting, and whatever the number of shares you own, you are requested to vote in accordance with the voting instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or by requesting hard copy proxy materials from us and returning a proxy card so that you may be represented at the Annual Meeting. Please note, however, that if you wish to vote in person at the meeting and your shares are held of record by a broker, bank, trustee, or nominee, you must obtain a "legal" proxy issued in your name from that record holder. In the event there are not sufficient votes for a quorum or to approve or ratify any of the foregoing proposals at the time of the Annual Meeting, the Annual Meeting may be adjourned in order to permit further solicitation of proxies by the Company.

We reserve the right to reconsider the date, time, and/or means of convening the Annual Meeting, including holding the Annual Meeting by means of remote communications. If we take this step, we will announce the decision to do so in advance, and details on how to participate in the meeting will be issued by press release and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as additional proxy material. We urge you to retain your control or proxy voting number after you vote in case changes are made to the meeting format and such information is again required.

We are not aware of any other business, or any other nominees for election as directors, that may properly be brought before the Annual Meeting. Thank you for your continued support of Oxford Square Capital Corp.

#### _____________________________________

#### PROXY STATEMENT 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders

#### _____________________________________

#### General
This proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") of Oxford Square Capital Corp. (the "Company," "OXSQ," "we," "us" or "our") for use at the Company's 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on August 20, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, in the second floor conference room of the Company's corporate headquarters located at 8 Sound Shore Drive, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830, and at any postponements or adjournments thereof. This Proxy Statement, the Notice of 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the Annual Report of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2024 are being provided to the stockholders of the Company via the Internet at *http://www.proxy*-direct*.com/oxf*-34572 on or about July 8, 2025. In addition, a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials is being sent to stockholders of record of the Company on or about July 8, 2025.

We encourage you to vote your shares, either by voting in person at the Annual Meeting or by granting a proxy (*i.e.*, authorizing someone to vote your shares). If you provide voting instructions, either via the Internet, by telephone or by mail, and the Company receives them in time for the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote your shares in the manner that you specified.

#### Annual Meeting Information

#### Date and Location
We will hold the Annual Meeting in the second floor conference room of the Company's corporate headquarters located at 8 Sound Shore Drive, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830, on August 20, 2025 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time.

We reserve the right to reconsider the date, time, and/or means of convening the Annual Meeting, including holding the Annual Meeting by means of remote communications. If we take this step, we will announce the decision to do so in advance, and details on how to participate in the meeting will be issued by press release and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as additional proxy material. We urge you to retain your control or proxy voting number after you vote in case changes are made to the meeting format and such information is again required.

#### Attendance
You are entitled to attend the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of the Company as of the close of business on the record date for the Annual Meeting, which is June 25, 2025 (the "Record Date"), or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. You must present valid photo identification, such as a driver's license or passport, for admittance. If you are not a stockholder of record of the Company but hold shares as a beneficial owner in street name, in order to attend the Annual Meeting you must also provide proof of beneficial ownership, such as your most recent account statement prior to the Record Date, a copy of the voting instruction form provided by your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee, or other similar evidence of ownership of shares of the Company.

Since seating is limited, admission to the Annual Meeting will be on a first-come, first-served basis. If you do not comply with the procedures outlined above, you will not be admitted to the Annual Meeting. For security reasons, you and your bags will be subject to search prior to your admittance to the Annual Meeting.

#### Availability of Proxy and Annual Meeting Materials
This Proxy Statement, the Notice of 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the accompanying Annual Report of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 are available at *http://www.proxy*-direct*.com/oxf*-34572.

#### Voting Information

#### General
OXSQ'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS, INCLUDING ALL THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS (AS DEFINED BELOW), UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"FOR" OXSQ's DIRECTOR NOMINEE DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT (PROPOSAL 1), AND

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"FOR" THE PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS LLP AS THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR OXSQ FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2025 (PROPOSAL 2).

#### Record Date and Voting Securities
You may vote your shares of the Company's common stock, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date. All shares of the Company's common stock have equal voting rights and are the only class of voting securities outstanding. On the Record Date, there were 76,027,372 shares of the Company's common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.

#### Quorum Required
A quorum must be present at the Annual Meeting for any business to be conducted. The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding on the Record Date, or 38,013,687 shares of the Company's common stock, will constitute a quorum. Abstentions will be treated as shares present for quorum purposes. Shares for which brokers have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares and do not have discretionary authority to vote on a proposal at the Annual Meeting (which are considered "Broker Non-Votes" with respect to such proposal) will be treated as shares present for quorum purposes. However, abstentions and Broker Non-Votes are not counted as votes cast. If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting may be adjourned pursuant to the provisions of the Company's bylaws until a quorum is present. The persons named as proxies will vote those proxies for such adjournment, unless marked to be voted against any proposal for which an adjournment is sought, to permit the further solicitation of proxies.

#### Voting Your Shares
If you are the record holder of your shares, you may vote by submitting your proxy by telephone, over the Internet, by mail, or in person at the Annual Meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You may vote your shares by telephone or over the Internet by following the instructions set forth on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. We encourage you to vote via the Internet, as it saves us significant time and processing costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you request hard copies of the Proxy Statement and proxy card, you may vote by mail by completing, dating and signing the proxy card and promptly mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. You do not need to put a stamp on the enclosed envelope if you mail it in the United States. The shares you own will be voted according to the instructions on the proxy card you mail. If you return the proxy card, but do not give any instructions on a particular matter described in this Proxy Statement, the shares you own will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the director nominee and FOR the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you attend the Annual Meeting and are a registered stockholder, you may vote by completing a ballot available at the Annual Meeting, or, if you requested a hard copy of the proxy card, by delivering your completed proxy card in person at the Annual Meeting.

#### Submitting Voting Instructions for Shares Held Through a Broker, Bank, Trustee, or Nominee
If you hold shares of the Company's common stock through a broker, bank, trustee, or nominee ("Broker Securities"), you must follow the voting instructions you receive from your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee. If you hold Broker Securities and you want to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the record holder of your shares and present it at the Annual Meeting. **Please instruct your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee so your vote can be counted.**

#### Discretionary Voting
Pursuant to New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") Rule 452 and the corresponding Listed Company Manual Section 402.08, discretionary voting by banks or brokers of Broker Securities is generally prohibited, subject to the exceptions as discussed in this paragraph. If you do not give instructions to your bank or broker within ten days of the Annual Meeting, the bank or broker may vote Broker Securities with respect to matters that the NYSE determines to be "routine," but will not be permitted to vote your Broker Securities with respect to "non-routine" items. At the Annual Meeting, brokers will have discretionary authority to vote shares on the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2), which is the only routine proposal to be presented at the meeting. However, when a matter to be voted on at a stockholder's meeting is the subject of a contested solicitation, brokers do not have discretion to vote Broker Securities on any matters at the Annual Meeting, to the extent they have provided you with the opposition party's proxy materials. When a bank or broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owners of Broker Securities or persons entitled to vote any Broker Securities, and the bank or broker cannot vote on a particular matter because it is not "routine," then there is a "broker non-vote" on that matter. Broker non-votes will be counted in determining whether there is a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

**Please note that to be sure your vote is counted on all of the proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting, including the election of a director, you should instruct your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee how to vote any Broker Securities. If you do not provide voting instructions, votes may not be cast on your behalf with respect to those "non**-routine**" matters.**

#### Authorizing a Proxy for Shares Held in Your Name
If you are a record holder of shares of the Company's common stock, you may authorize a proxy to vote on your behalf by following the instructions provided on the enclosed proxy card. Authorizing your proxy will not limit your right to vote in person at the Annual Meeting. A properly completed and submitted proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions, unless you subsequently revoke your instructions. If you authorize a proxy without indicating your voting instructions, the proxyholder will vote your shares according to the Board's recommendations. Internet and telephone voting procedures are designed to authenticate the stockholder's identity and to allow stockholders to vote their shares and confirm that their instructions have been properly recorded. Your telephone or Internet vote authorizes the named proxies to vote your shares in the same manner as if you had marked, signed and returned a proxy card.

#### Receipt of Multiple Proxy Cards
Many of our stockholders hold their shares in more than one account and may receive separate proxy cards or voting instruction forms for each of those accounts. To ensure that all of your shares are represented at the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you vote every proxy card you receive.

#### Revoking Your Proxy
If you are a "stockholder of record" (*i.e.,* you hold shares directly in your name), you may revoke a proxy at any time before it is exercised by: (i) submitting a later-dated proxy that we receive no later than the conclusion of voting at the Annual Meeting; or (ii) voting in person at the Annual Meeting. If you hold Broker Securities, you must follow the instructions you receive from them in order to revoke your voting instructions. Attending the Annual Meeting does not revoke your proxy unless you also vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders have no dissenters' or appraisal rights in connection with any of the proposals described herein.

#### Vote Required
*Proposal 1 — Election of Director.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*A plurality of all votes cast at a meeting of stockholders duly called and at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient to elect a director. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes. If you vote "Withhold" with respect to the Company's Board nominees, your shares will not be voted with respect to the person indicated. Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes, if any, will not be included in determining the number of votes cast and, as a result, will have no effect on this proposal. **This proposal is considered a "non**-routine **matter"; accordingly, brokers cannot vote on this proposal unless they have received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of Broker Securities.**

*Proposal 2 — Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy is required to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (*i.e.*, the number of shares voted "for" the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP exceeds the number of votes "against" the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP). Abstentions, if any, will not be included in determining the number of votes cast and, as a result, will have no effect on this proposal. **This proposal is considered a "routine matter"; accordingly, brokers have discretionary authority to vote on this proposal without receiving voting instructions from the beneficial owner of Broker Securities.**

*Additional Solicitation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*If there are not enough votes to approve any proposals at the Annual Meeting, stockholders who are represented may adjourn the Annual Meeting to permit the further solicitation of proxies. The persons named as proxies will vote those proxies for such adjournment, unless marked to be voted against any proposal for which an adjournment is sought, to permit the further solicitation of proxies. Also, a stockholder vote may be taken on one or more of the proposals in this Proxy Statement prior to any such adjournment if there are sufficient votes for approval of such proposal(s).

#### Participants in the Solicitation of Proxies
Under applicable SEC regulations, the Company, its directors and certain of its executive officers, the officers and employees of Oxford Square Management, LLC ("Oxford Square Management"), the Company's investment adviser, and the officers and employees of Oxford Funds, LLC ("Oxford Funds"), the Company's administrator, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from OXSQ's stockholders in connection with the Annual Meeting. Oxford Square Management and Oxford Funds are both located at 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, CT 06830. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or regular employees of the Company, Oxford Square Management or Oxford Funds for soliciting proxies in connection with the Annual Meeting.

#### PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Pursuant to the Company's bylaws, the number of directors is set at five unless otherwise designated by the Board of Directors. Directors are elected for a staggered term of three years each, with a term of office of one of the three classes of directors expiring each year. Each director will hold office for the term to which he or she is elected or until his or her respective successor is duly elected and qualified.

Mr. Barry A. Osherow has been unanimously nominated by the Company's Board of Directors, including the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, for election for a three-year term expiring in 2028. Mr. Osherow is not being proposed for election pursuant to any agreement or understanding between Mr. Osherow and the Company or any other person or entity.

A stockholder can vote for or withhold his, her or its vote from the Board nominee. **In the absence of instructions to the contrary, it is the intention of the persons named as proxies to vote such proxy "FOR" the election of the OXSQ's nominee named above. If the Board nominee should decline or be unable to serve as a director, it is intended that the proxy will vote for the election of such person as is nominated by the Board of Directors as a replacement.** OXSQ's Board of Directors has no reason to believe that the person named above will be unable or unwilling to serve.

**This proposal is considered a "non**-routine **matter" per the NYSE rules and instructions; accordingly, brokers cannot vote on this proposal unless they have received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of Broker Securities.**

A plurality of all votes cast at a meeting of stockholders duly called and at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient to elect a director. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes. If you vote "Withhold" with respect to either director nominee, your shares will not be voted with respect to the person indicated. Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes, if any, will not be included in determining the number of votes cast and, as a result, will have no effect on this proposal. This proposal is considered a "non-routine matter"; accordingly, brokers cannot vote on this proposal unless they have received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of Broker Securities.

#### Board Leadership Structure
Our Board of Directors monitors and performs an oversight role with respect to the business and affairs of the Company, including with respect to investment practices and performance, compliance with regulatory requirements and the services, expenses and performance of service providers to the Company. Among other things, our Board of Directors approves the appointment of our investment adviser and officers, reviews and monitors the services and activities performed by our investment adviser and executive officers, and approves the engagement, and reviews the performance, of our independent registered public accounting firm.

Under our bylaws, our Board of Directors may designate a Chairman to preside over the meetings of our Board of Directors and meetings of the stockholders and to perform such other duties as may be assigned to him by our Board of Directors. Mr. Novak serves as the Chairman of our Board of Directors. Mr. Novak is not an "interested person" of the Company as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. We believe that Mr. Novak's financial expertise from his experience as a financial manager and varied roles on the boards of both publicly-traded and privately-held companies qualifies him to serve as the Chairman of our Board of Directors and provides our Board with particular technology-related knowledge and the perspective of a knowledgeable corporate leader. We believe

that we are best served through this existing leadership structure, as Mr. Novak encourages an open dialogue between management and our Board of Directors, ensuring that these groups act with a common purpose with respect to the Company.

Our corporate governance policies include regular meetings of the directors who are not "interested persons" of the Company, as defined in the 1940 Act (the "Independent Directors"), in executive session without the presence of interested directors and management, the establishment of an Audit Committee, Valuation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and Compensation Committee, all of which are comprised solely of Independent Directors, and the appointment of a Chief Compliance Officer, with whom the Independent Directors meet regularly without the presence of interested directors and other members of management, for administering our compliance policies and procedures.

#### Board's Role in Risk Oversight
Our Board of Directors performs its risk oversight function primarily through (i) its four standing committees, which report to the entire Board of Directors and are comprised solely of Independent Directors, and (ii) active monitoring of our Chief Compliance Officer and our compliance policies and procedures.

As described below in more detail under "Committees of the Board of Directors," the Audit Committee, the Valuation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its risk oversight responsibilities. The Audit Committee's risk oversight responsibilities include overseeing our accounting and financial reporting processes, our systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting, and audits of our financial statements. The Valuation Committee's risk oversight responsibilities include establishing guidelines and making recommendations to our Board of Directors regarding the valuation of our loans and investments. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's risk oversight responsibilities include selecting, researching and nominating directors for election by our stockholders, developing and recommending to the Board of Directors a set of corporate governance principles and overseeing the evaluation of our Board of Directors and our management. The Compensation Committee's risk oversight responsibilities include reviewing and recommending to our Board of Directors for approval the Investment Advisory Agreement (as defined below) and the Administration Agreement (as defined below), and, to the extent that we may compensate our executive officers directly in the future, reviewing and evaluating the compensation of our executive officers and making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding such compensation.

Our Board of Directors also performs its risk oversight responsibilities with the assistance of our Chief Compliance Officer. Our Board of Directors annually reviews a written report from the Chief Compliance Officer discussing the adequacy and effectiveness of the compliance policies and procedures of the Company and its service providers. The Chief Compliance Officer's annual report addresses at a minimum (i) the operation of the compliance policies and procedures of the Company and its service providers since the last report; (ii) any material changes to such policies and procedures since the last report; (iii) any recommendations for material changes to such policies and procedures as a result of the Chief Compliance Officer's annual review; and (iv) any compliance matter that has occurred since the date of the last report about which our Board of Directors would reasonably need to know to oversee our compliance activities and risks. In addition, the Chief Compliance Officer meets separately in executive session with the Independent Directors at least quarterly.

We believe that our Board of Directors' role in risk oversight is effective, and appropriate given the extensive regulation to which we are already subject to as a BDC. As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements that control the levels of risk in our business and operations. For example, our ability to incur indebtedness is limited such that our asset coverage must equal at least 150% immediately after each time we incur indebtedness, we generally cannot invest in assets that are not "qualifying assets" unless at least 70% of our gross assets consist of "qualifying assets" immediately prior to such investment, and we are not generally permitted to invest, subject to certain exceptions, in any portfolio company in which one of our affiliates currently has an investment.

We recognize that different board roles in risk oversight are appropriate for companies in different situations. We re-examine the manner in which our Board of Directors administers its oversight function on an ongoing basis to ensure that they continue to meet our needs.

#### Transactions with Related Persons
We have entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with Oxford Square Management (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"). Oxford Square Management is controlled by Oxford Funds, its managing member. In addition to Oxford Funds, Oxford Square Management is owned by Charles M. Royce, a member of our Board of Directors, who holds a minority, non-controlling interest in Oxford Square Management as the non-managing member. Oxford Funds, as the managing member of Oxford Square Management, manages the business and internal affairs of Oxford Square Management. In addition, Oxford Funds provides us with office facilities and administrative services pursuant to the Administration Agreement (the "Administration Agreement").

Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal also currently serve as Chief Executive Officer and President, respectively, at Oxford Gate Management. Oxford Funds is the managing member of Oxford Gate Management. In addition, Bruce L. Rubin serves as the Chief Financial Officer, and Gerald Cummins serves as the Chief Compliance Officer, of Oxford Gate Management.

Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal currently serve as Chief Executive Officer and President, respectively, of Oxford Lane Capital Corp. and Oxford Lane Management. Oxford Funds provides Oxford Lane Capital Corp. with office facilities and administrative services pursuant to an administration agreement and also serves as the managing member of Oxford Lane Management. In addition, Bruce L. Rubin serves as the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Corporate Secretary of Oxford Lane Capital Corp. and Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Oxford Lane Management, and Mr. Cummins serves as the Chief Compliance Officer of Oxford Lane Capital Corp. and Oxford Lane Management.

Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal also currently serve as Chief Executive Officer and President, respectively, at Oxford Park Income Fund, Inc. and Oxford Park Management. In addition, Bruce L. Rubin serves as the Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, and Gerald Cummins serves as the Chief Compliance Officer of Oxford Park Income Fund, Inc. and Oxford Park Management.

As a result, certain conflicts of interest may arise with respect to the management of our portfolio by Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal on the one hand, and the obligations of Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal to manage Oxford Lane Capital Corp., Oxford Park Income Fund, Inc., Oxford Bridge II, LLC and the Oxford Gate Funds, respectively, on the other hand.

Oxford Square Management, Oxford Lane Management, Oxford Park Management and Oxford Gate Management are subject to a written policy with respect to the allocation of investment opportunities among the Company, Oxford Lane Capital Corp., Oxford Park Income Fund, Inc., Oxford Bridge II, LLC and the Oxford Gate Funds. Where investments are suitable for more than one entity, the allocation policy generally provides that an investment amount will be determined by the adviser to each entity depending on size and subject to current and anticipated cash availability, the absolute size of the investment as well as its relative size compared to the total assets of each entity, current and anticipated weighted average costs of capital, among other factors. If the investment opportunity is sufficient for each entity to receive its investment amount, then each entity receives the investment amount; otherwise, the investment amount is reduced pro rata. On June 14, 2017, the SEC issued an order permitting the Company and certain of its affiliates to complete negotiated co-investment transactions in portfolio companies, subject to certain conditions (the "Order"). Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions to the Order, the Company and certain of its affiliates are now permitted, together with any future BDCs, registered closed-end funds and certain private funds, each of whose investment adviser is the Company's investment adviser or an investment adviser controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company's investment adviser, to co-invest in negotiated investment opportunities where doing so would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act, providing the Company's stockholders with access to a broader array of investment opportunities. Pursuant to the Order, we are permitted to co-invest in such investment opportunities with our affiliates if a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our Independent Directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including, but not limited to, that (1) the terms of the potential co-investment transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the potential co-investment transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our then-current investment objective and strategies.

The Company and Oxford Square Management have applied for a new exemptive relief order which, if granted, would supersede the Order with respect to negotiated co-investment transactions alongside affiliates of Oxford Square Management. There can be no assurance that the SEC will grant such exemptive relief.

In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with portfolio companies that may be considered related party transactions. In order to ensure that we do not engage in any prohibited transactions with any persons affiliated with us, we have implemented certain policies and procedures whereby our executive officers screen each of our transactions for any possible affiliations between the proposed portfolio investment, us, companies controlled by us and our employees and directors. We will not enter into any agreements unless and until we are satisfied that doing so will not raise concerns under the 1940 Act or, if such concerns exist, we have taken appropriate actions to seek board review and approval or exemptive relief for such transaction. Our Board of Directors reviews these procedures on an annual basis.

#### Investment Advisory Agreement Subject to Annual Approval by the Independent Directors
The Company's stockholders benefit from a robust annual review of the Investment Advisory Agreement with Oxford Square Management under the 1940 Act. In accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Board of Directors, including its Independent Directors, review on an annual basis whether the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and Oxford Square Management are fair in light of the services provided by Oxford Square Management. In other words, the Board considers whether the terms are fair and reasonable in relation to the services rendered.

Our Board of Directors determined, at a meeting held in-person on April 22, 2025, to re-approve the Investment Advisory Agreement, dated March 9, 2016. In its consideration of the re-approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board of Directors focused on information it had received relating to, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The nature, extent and quality of advisory and other services provided by Oxford Square Management, including with respect to the investment criteria and parameters used by Oxford Square Management in identifying potential investment opportunities and Oxford Square Management's processes currently in place to monitor, manage and mitigate the risk and volatility associated with the Company's portfolio, and the qualifications and abilities of the professional personnel of Oxford Square Management and the compensation structure for such personnel, and concluded Oxford Square Management has and is expected to continue to provide a high level of quality services to the Company and its stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The investment performance of the Company and Oxford Square Management including a comparison to the performance of the Company's peer group, and concluded that the Company's performance is satisfactory;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The experience and qualifications of the personnel providing such advisory and other services, including information about the backgrounds of the investment personnel, the allocation of responsibilities among such personnel and the process by which investment decisions are made, and concluded that the investment personnel of Oxford Square Management have extensive experience and are well qualified to provide advisory and other services to the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The current fee structure, the existence of any fee waivers, and the Company's anticipated expense ratios in relation to those of other investment companies having comparable investment policies and limitations, and concluded that the current fee structure is reasonable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The advisory fees charged by Oxford Square Management to the Company and comparative data regarding the advisory fees charged by other investment advisers to BDCs with similar investment objectives, and concluded that the advisory fees charged by Oxford Square Management to the Company are reasonable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The direct and indirect costs, including for personnel and office facilities, that are incurred by Oxford Square Management and its affiliates in performing services for the Company and the basis of determining and allocating these costs, and concluded that the direct and indirect costs, including the allocation of such costs, are reasonable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Possible economies of scale arising from the Company's size and/or anticipated growth, and the extent to which such economies of scale are reflected in the advisory fees charged by Oxford Square Management to the Company, and concluded that the advisory fees are reasonable in light of any economies of scale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Profitability and other possible benefits to Oxford Square Management and its affiliates arising from their relationships with the Company, and concluded that Oxford Square Management's and its affiliates profitability and any such other benefits were not excessive; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The possibility of obtaining similar services from other third-party service providers or through an internally managed structure and concluded that the Company's current externally managed structure with Oxford Square Management as its investment adviser was satisfactory.

Based on the information reviewed and the discussions detailed above, the Board of Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, concluded that fees payable to Oxford Square Management pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement were reasonable, and comparable to the fees paid by other BDCs with similar investment objectives, in relation to the services to be provided, and the Board of Directors unanimously approved the re-approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Board of Directors did not assign relative weights to the above factors or the other factors considered by it. Individual members of the Board of Directors may have given different weights to different factors.

#### Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
We have also adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which applies to, among others, 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 Business Conduct and 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 Business Conduct and 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 Business Conduct and Ethics. As required by the NASDAQ Global Select Market 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 of Regulation S-K).

#### Corporate Governance

#### Corporate Governance Documents
Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and the charters of the Audit Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Compensation Committee are available on our website at *www*.*oxfordsquarecapital.com* and are also available to any stockholder who requests them by writing to Oxford Square Capital Corp., c/o Bruce L. Rubin, Corporate Secretary, 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830.

#### Director Independence
In accordance with the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, our Board of Directors annually determines each director's independence. We do not consider a director independent unless our Board of Directors has determined that he or she has no material relationship with us. We monitor the relationships of our directors and officers through a questionnaire each director completes no less frequently than annually and updates periodically as information provided in the most recent questionnaire changes.

In order to evaluate the materiality of any such relationship, our Board of Directors uses the definition of director independence set forth in the rules promulgated by the NASDAQ Stock Market. Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that a director of a BDC, shall be considered to be independent if he or she is not an "interested person" of the Company, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.

The Board of Directors has determined that each of the directors is independent and has no relationship with us, except as a director and stockholder, with the exception of Jonathan H. Cohen, as a result of his position as our Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Oxford Square Management and Managing Member of Oxford Funds, and Charles M. Royce, as a result of his ownership of a minority, non-controlling interest in our investment adviser, Oxford Square Management.

#### Evaluation
The Company's directors perform an evaluation and assessment, no less frequently than annually, of the effectiveness of the Board of Directors and its committees.

#### Communication with the Board of Directors
Stockholders with questions about the Company are encouraged to contact our Investor Relations Department. However, if stockholders believe that their questions have not been addressed, they may communicate with our Board of Directors by sending their communications to Oxford Square Capital Corp., c/o Bruce L. Rubin, Corporate Secretary, 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830. All stockholder communications received in this manner will be delivered to one or more members of our Board of Directors, as appropriate.

#### Insider Trading Policy
The Company's insider trading policy (the "Insider Trading Policy") governs the purchase, sale, and/or any other dispositions of its securities by directors, officers, employees and other covered persons and is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and listing standards applicable to the Company. To the extent the Company engages in transactions in its securities, it will do so in accordance with applicable laws.

#### Hedging Transactions
Our Code of Ethics and Insider Trading Policy prohibits any Covered Persons (as defined below) from engaging in hedging or monetization transactions with respect to our securities, except for covered call writing. Any Covered Person wishing to enter into a covered call transaction with respect to our securities must first pre-clear the proposed transaction with our Chief Compliance Officer. A "Covered Person" means any of our directors, officers or employees (including a temporary employee), or of any of our affiliates or subsidiaries, including our investment adviser, our administrator and any other persons designated by our Chief Compliance Officer.

#### Committees of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has established a standing Audit Committee, Valuation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and Compensation Committee. During 2024, our Board of Directors held four Board meetings, four Audit Committee meetings, four Valuation Committee meetings, one Nominating and Corporate Governance meeting, and one Compensation Committee meeting. Each of the incumbent directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of our Board of Directors and of the respective committees on which he served during the last fiscal year and while he served as a director. We require each director to make a diligent effort to attend all Board of Directors and committee meetings, as well as each annual meeting of stockholders.

#### Audit Committee
The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a charter approved by our Board, copy of which is available on our website at *www.oxfordsquarecapital.com*. The charter sets forth the responsibilities of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee's responsibilities include recommending the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm, reviewing with such independent registered public accounting firm the planning, scope and results of their audit of our financial statements, pre-approving the fees for services performed, reviewing with the independent registered public accounting firm the adequacy of internal control systems, reviewing our annual financial statements and periodic filings, and receiving the audit reports covering our financial statements. The Audit Committee is presently composed of three persons: Messrs. Osherow, Novak, and Stelljes, all of whom are considered independent under the rules promulgated by the NASDAQ Global Stock Market. Our Board has determined that each of Mr. Novak and Mr. Stelljes is an "audit committee financial expert" as that term is defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act. Messrs. Osherow, Novak, and Stelljes each meet the current independence and experience requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and, in addition, are each not an "interested person" of OXSQ as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. Mr. Osherow currently serves as Chairman of the Audit Committee.

#### Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee operates pursuant to a charter approved by our Board of Directors, a copy of which is available on our website at *www.oxfordsquarecapital.com*. The charter sets forth the responsibilities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's responsibilities include selecting, researching and nominating directors for election by our stockholders, selecting nominees to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, monitoring and making recommendations to the Board of Directors on matters of Company policies and practices relating to corporate governance and overseeing the evaluation of the Board of Directors and our management. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is presently composed of three persons: Messrs. Novak, Osherow and Stelljes, all of whom are considered independent under the rules promulgated by the NASDAQ Global Stock Market. Mr. Stelljes currently serves as Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not currently have a written policy with regard to nominees recommended by our stockholders. The absence of such a policy does not mean, however, that a stockholder recommendation would not have been considered had one been received.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider qualified director nominees recommended by stockholders when such recommendations are submitted in accordance with our bylaws and any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding director nominations. When submitting a nomination for consideration, a stockholder must provide certain information that would be required under applicable SEC rules, including the following minimum information for each director nominee: full name, age and address; principal occupation during the past five years; current directorships on publicly held companies and investment companies; number of shares of Company common stock owned, if any; and, a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by our Board of Directors and to serve if elected by our stockholders.

In evaluating director nominees, the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consider the following factors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the appropriate size and composition of our Board of Directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;whether or not the person is an "interested person" of the Company as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the knowledge, skills and experience of nominees in light of the Company's business and strategic direction and the knowledge, skills and experience already possessed by other members of the Board of Directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;familiarity with business matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;experience with accounting rules and practices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the desire to complement the considerable benefit of continuity with the benefit of diverse viewpoints and perspectives (such as gender, race, national origin and education); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;all applicable laws, rules, regulations, and listing standards.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's goal is to assemble a Board of Directors that brings to the Company a variety of perspectives and skills derived from high quality business and professional experience.

Other than the foregoing, there are no stated minimum criteria for director nominees, although the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consider such other factors as they may deem are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also believes it appropriate for certain key members of our management to participate as members of the Board of Directors.

The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identify nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Board of Directors willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board of Directors with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue in service are considered for re-nomination, balancing the value of continuity of service by existing members of the Board of Directors with that of the benefits of diverse perspectives. If any member of the Board of Directors does not wish to continue in service or if the Board of Directors decides not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Independent Directors of the Board of Directors identify the desired skills and experience of a new nominee in light of the criteria above. The entire Board of Directors is polled for suggestions as to individuals meeting the aforementioned criteria. Research may also be performed to identify qualified individuals. To date, neither the Board of Directors nor the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has engaged third parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying potential nominees although each reserves the right in the future to retain a third-party search firm, if necessary.

**The Board, including the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, unanimously recommended that Barry A. Osherow be nominated for election to the Board.**

#### Valuation Committee
The Valuation Committee establishes guidelines and makes recommendations to our Board of Directors regarding the valuation of our loans and investments. Our portfolio investments are generally not publicly traded securities. As a result, there is no readily determinable market value for these securities. Thus, as required by the 1940 Act for such securities, we value these securities at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors based upon the recommendation of the Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee is presently composed of three persons: Messrs. Novak, Osherow and Stelljes, all of whom are considered independent under the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Market and are not "interested persons" of OXSQ as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. Mr. Stelljes currently serves as Chairman of the Valuation Committee.

#### Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a charter approved by our Board, a copy of which is available on our website at *www.oxfordsquarecapital.com*. The charter sets forth the responsibilities of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for annually reviewing and recommending for approval to our Board the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for reviewing and approving the compensation of the Independent Directors, including the Chairman of the Board. In addition, although we do not directly compensate our executive officers currently, to the extent that we do so in the future, the Compensation Committee would also be responsible for reviewing and evaluating their compensation and making recommendations to the Board regarding their compensation. Lastly, the Compensation Committee would produce a report on our executive compensation practices and policies for inclusion in our proxy statement if required by applicable proxy rules and regulations and, if applicable, make recommendations to the Board

on our executive compensation practices and policies. The Compensation Committee has the authority to engage compensation consultants and to delegate their duties and responsibilities to a member or to a subcommittee of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is presently composed of three persons: Messrs. Novak, Osherow and Stelljes, all of whom are considered independent under the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Market and are not "interested persons" of Oxford Square Capital Corp. as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. Mr. Novak serves as Chairman of the Compensation Committee.

#### Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics ("Code of Ethics") which applies to, among others, our senior officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as well as every officer, director and employee of OXSQ. Our Code of Ethics can be accessed via our website at *www.oxfordsquarecapital.com*. We intend to disclose amendments to or waivers from a required provision of the Code of Ethics on Form 8-K. We intend to disclose any substantive amendments to, or waivers from, this Code of Ethics within four business days of the waiver or amendment through a posting on our website.

#### Compensation of Executive Officers
None of our officers receive direct compensation from OXSQ. As a result, we do not engage any compensation consultants. Mr. Cohen, our Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Rosenthal, our President and Chief Operating Officer, through their ownership interest in Oxford Funds, the managing member of Oxford Square Management, are entitled to a portion of any profits earned by Oxford Square Management, which includes any fees payable to Oxford Square Management under the terms of our Investment Advisory Agreement, less expenses incurred by Oxford Square Management in performing its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement. Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal do not receive any additional compensation from Oxford Square Management in connection with the management of our portfolio.

The compensation of our Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary is paid by our administrator, Oxford Funds, subject to reimbursement by us of an allocable portion of such compensation for services rendered by our Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary to the Company. The allocable portion of such compensation that is reimbursed to Oxford Funds by us is based on an estimate of the time spent by our Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary and other administrative personnel in performing their respective duties for us in accordance with the Administration Agreement. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, we accrued approximately $747,000 for the allocable portion of compensation expenses incurred by Oxford Funds on our behalf for our Chief Financial Officer, our Treasurer and Controller, and other administrative support personnel, pursuant to our Administration Agreement with Oxford Funds. Mr. Cummins is a Director of ACA Group, LLC, and performs his functions as our Chief Compliance Officer under the terms of an agreement between us and ACA Group, LLC. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, we accrued approximately $120,000 for the fees paid to ACA Group, LLC.

#### Timing of Grants of Options
The Company did not grant awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights or similar option-like instruments during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Accordingly, we have nothing to report under Item 402(x) of Regulation S-K.

#### Compensation of Directors
Each independent director receives an annual fee of $90,000. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional annual fee of $30,000 for his service as Chairman of the Board. In addition, the independent directors receive $4,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Board meeting, $1,500 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Valuation Committee meeting, $1,500 plus reimbursement of reasonable out of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Audit Committee meeting, $1,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meeting and $1,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Compensation Committee meeting. The Chairman of the Audit Committee also receives an additional annual fee of $10,000 for his service as chair of the Audit Committee. The Chairman of the Valuation Committee also receives an additional annual

fee of $7,500 for his service as chair of the Valuation Committee. The Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also receives an additional annual fee of $5,000 for his service as chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Chairman of the Compensation Committee also receives an additional annual fee of $5,000 for his service as chair of the Compensation Committee. No compensation was paid to directors who are interested persons of OXSQ as defined in the 1940 Act.

#### Audit Committee Report
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Oxford Square Capital Corp. operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Osherow, Novak, and Stelljes.

Management is responsible for the Company's internal controls and the financial reporting process. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company's financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the "PCAOB") and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Audit Committee's responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes. The Audit Committee is also directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

#### Audit Firm Selection/Ratification
At least annually, the Audit Committee reviews the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to decide whether to retain such firm on behalf of the Company. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been the Company's independent registered public accounting firm since 2003.

When conducting its latest review of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Audit Committee actively engaged with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's engagement partners and considered, among other factors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the professional qualifications of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and that of the lead audit partner and other key engagement members relative to the current and ongoing needs of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's historical and recent performance on the Company's audits, including the extent and quality of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's communications with the Audit Committee related thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;senior management's assessment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the appropriateness of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's fees relative to both efficiency and audit quality;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's independence policies and processes for maintaining its independence;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PCAOB audit quality inspection reports on PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's tenure as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and its related depth of understanding of the Company's businesses, operations and systems and the Company's accounting policies and practices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's professional integrity and objectivity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the relative benefits, challenges, overall advisability and potential impact of selecting a different independent registered public accounting firm.

As a result of this evaluation, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the 2025 fiscal year, subject to stockholder ratification.

#### Audit Engagement Partner Selection
Under SEC rules and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's practice, the lead engagement audit partner is required to change every five years, and a current lead audit partner was appointed in 2021. The Audit Committee interviewed the incoming lead audit partner and considered her professional qualifications in light of the Company's needs. The Audit Committee has approved the incoming lead audit partner.

#### Pre-Approval Policy
The Audit Committee has established a pre-approval policy that describes the permitted audit, audit-related, tax and other services to be provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The policy requires that the Audit Committee pre-approve all services performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that the provision of such service does not impair the auditor's independence.

Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax and other services that have not received general pre-approval must be submitted to the Audit Committee for specific pre-approval, irrespective of the amount, and cannot commence until such approval has been granted. Normally, pre-approval is provided at regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee. However, the Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated shall report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee does not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent registered public accounting firm to management.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Audit Committee pre-approved 100% of non-audit services in accordance with the pre-approval policy described above.

#### Review with Management
The Audit Committee has reviewed the audited financial statements and met and held discussions with management regarding the audited financial statements. Management has represented to the Audit Committee that the Company's financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

#### Review and Discussion with Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB. The Audit Committee received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and has discussed with the auditors the auditors' independence. The Audit Committee has also considered the compatibility of non-audit services with the auditors' independence.

During 2024, the Audit Committee met with members of senior management and the independent registered public accounting firm to review the certifications provided by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the rules and regulations of the SEC and the overall certification process. At these meetings, company officers reviewed each of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act certification requirements concerning internal control over financial reporting and any fraud, whether or not material, involving management or other employees with a significant role in internal control over financial reporting.

#### Conclusion
Based on the Audit Committee's discussion with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee's review of the audited financial statements, the representations of management and the report of the independent registered public accounting firm to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited financial statements in the Annual Report of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2024 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee also recommended the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Respectfully Submitted,

The Audit Committee

**The material contained in the foregoing Audit Committee Report is not "soliciting material," is not deemed "filed" with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.**

#### OTHER MATTERS

#### Stockholder Proposals
Any stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to the SEC's Rule 14a-8 for inclusion in the Company's proxy statement and form of proxy for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders must have been received by the Company on or before March 10, 2026. Such proposals must also comply with the requirements as to form and substance established by the SEC if such proposals are to be included in the Company's proxy statement and form of proxy. The submission of a proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in the Company's proxy statement or presentation at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders. Any such proposal should be mailed to: Oxford Square Capital Corp., c/o Bruce L. Rubin, Corporate Secretary, 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830.

Stockholder proposals or director nominations for the Company to be presented at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, other than stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to the SEC's Rule 14a-8, must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Company not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of mailing of the notice for the preceding year's annual meeting of stockholders. For the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company must have received such proposals and nominations between March 10, 2026 and April 9, 2026. If the date of the mailing of the notice for the 2026 annual meeting is advanced or delayed by more than 30 days from the first anniversary of the date of mailing of the notice for the preceding year's annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the 120<sup>th</sup> day prior to the date of mailing of the notice for the 2026 annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90<sup>th</sup> day prior to the date of mailing of the notice for the 2026 annual meeting or the 10<sup>th</sup> day following the day on which public announcement of the date of mailing of the notice for such meeting is first made. Proposals must also comply with the other requirements contained in the Company's bylaws, including supporting documentation and other information. Proxies solicited by the Company will confer discretionary voting authority with respect to these proposals, subject to SEC rules governing the exercise of this authority.

#### Other Business
The Board of Directors knows of no other business to be presented for action at the Annual Meeting. If any matters do come before the Annual Meeting on which action can properly be taken, it is intended that the proxies shall vote in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons exercising the authority conferred by the proxy at the Annual Meeting. The submission of a proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in the Company's proxy statement or presentation at the Annual Meeting, unless certain securities law requirements are met.

#### Delivery of Proxy Materials
It may be the case that only one copy of the 2025 Proxy Statement, the 2024 Annual Report, or Notice of Annual Meeting will be delivered to two or more stockholders of record of the Company who share an address, unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of such stockholders. We will deliver promptly, upon request, a separate copy of any of these documents to stockholders of record of the Company at a shared address to which a single copy of such documents was delivered. Stockholders who wish to receive a separate copy of any of these documents, or to receive a single copy of such documents if multiple copies were delivered, now or in the future, should submit their request by calling us at (203) 983-5275 or by writing to Oxford Square Capital Corp., c/o Bruce L. Rubin, Corporate Secretary, 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830.
