**PROXY STATEMENT** 

**2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS** 

**GENERAL** 

**This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the "Board")** of Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company," "we," "us" or "our"), for use at the Company's 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on December 18, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, at the offices of the Company, 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017 and at any postponements or adjournments thereof. This proxy statement, the accompanying proxy card and the Company's Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the sixth months ended December 31, 2024, are first being sent to stockholders on or about December 1, 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 properly sign and date the accompanying proxy card, and the Company receives it in time for the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote the shares registered directly in your name in the manner that you specified. This proxy statement is also available via the Internet at *www.icmbdc.com* (under the Investor Relations section). The website also includes electronic copies of the form of proxy card and the Company's Transition Report on Form 10-KT. If your shares are registered in the name of a bank or brokerage firm, you may be eligible to vote your shares electronically via the Internet or by telephone. This program provides eligible stockholders who receive a copy of the Company's Transition Report on Form 10-KT and proxy statement, either by paper or electronically, the opportunity to vote via the Internet or by telephone. If your voting form does not reference Internet or telephone voting information, please complete and return the paper proxy card in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided.

**ANNUAL MEETING INFORMATION** 

**Date and Location** 

We will hold the Annual Meeting on December 18, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, at the offices of the Company, 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017.

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.

**Admission** 

Only record or beneficial owners of the Company's common stock as of the close of business on October 15, 2025, or their proxies may attend the Annual Meeting. Beneficial owners must also provide evidence of stock holdings, such as a recent brokerage account or bank statement.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
**Purpose of the Annual Meeting** 

At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to vote on the following proposals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To elect one director of the Company nominated by the Board and named in this proxy statement who will serve
for three years or until his successor is elected and qualified; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. To transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting, or any postponement or adjournment
thereof.

**VOTING INFORMATION** 

**Record Date and Quorum Required** 

The record date of the Annual Meeting is the close of business on October 15, 2025 (the "Record Date"). You may cast one vote for each share of common stock that you own as of the Record Date.

A quorum of stockholders must be present for any business to be conducted at the Annual Meeting. The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast as of the Record Date will constitute a quorum. Abstentions will be treated as shares present for quorum purposes. On the Record Date, there were 14,419,762 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, 7,209,881 must be represented by stockholders present at the Annual Meeting or by proxy to have a quorum.

If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, the stockholders who are represented may adjourn the Annual Meeting 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 further solicitation of proxies.

**Submitting Voting Instructions for Shares Held Through a Broker** 

If you hold shares of common stock through a broker, bank or other nominee, you must follow the voting instructions you receive from your broker, bank or nominee. If you hold shares of common stock through a broker, bank or other nominee and you want to vote in person at the meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the record holder of your shares. If you do not submit voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee, your broker, bank or other nominee will not be permitted to vote your shares on any proposal considered at the meeting.

**Authorizing a Proxy for Shares Held in Your Name** 

If you are a record holder of shares of common stock, you may authorize a proxy to vote on your behalf by mail, as described on the enclosed proxy card. Authorizing a proxy will not limit your right to vote in person at the meeting. A properly completed, executed and submitted proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions, unless you subsequently revoke the proxy. If you authorize a proxy without indicating your voting instructions, the proxyholder will vote your shares according to the Board's recommendations.

**Revoking Your Proxy** 

If you are a stockholder of record, you can revoke your proxy by (1) delivering a written revocation notice prior to the Annual Meeting to our Secretary, Andrew Muns, at 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017; (2) delivering a later-dated proxy that we receive no later than the opening of the polls at the meeting; or (3) voting in person at the meeting. If you hold shares of common stock through a broker, bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions you receive from your nominee in order to revoke your voting instructions. Attending the Annual Meeting does not revoke your proxy unless you also vote in person at the meeting. Stockholders have no appraisal or dissenters' rights in connection with any of the proposals described herein.

**INFORMATION REGARDING THIS SOLICITATION** 

The Company will bear the expense of the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting, including the cost of preparing, printing, and mailing this proxy statement, the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and the proxy card. We have requested that brokers, nominees, fiduciaries and other persons holding shares in their names, or in the name of their nominees, which are beneficially owned by others, forward the proxy materials to, and obtain proxies from, such beneficial owners. We will reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses in so doing.

In addition to the solicitation of proxies by the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited in person and by telephone or facsimile transmission by directors, officers or regular employees of the Company or CM Investment Partners LLC (our "Adviser" and "Administrator") (for which no director, officer or regular employee will receive any additional or special compensation). The address of our Adviser is 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017.

The Company has engaged the services of EQ Fund Solutions, LLC for the purpose of assisting in the solicitation of proxies at an anticipated cost of approximately $6,000 plus reimbursement of certain expenses and fees for additional services requested. Please note that EQ Fund Solutions, LLC may solicit stockholder proxies by telephone on behalf of the Company. They will not attempt to influence how you vote your shares, but only ask that you take the time to authorize your proxy. You may also be asked if you would like to authorize your proxy over the telephone and to have your voting instructions transmitted to the Company's proxy tabulation firm.

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokerages and other institutional holders of record have implemented householding. A single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. If you have received notice from your broker that it will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement, please notify your broker. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their addresses and would like to request information about householding of their communications should contact their brokers or other intermediary holder of record. You can notify us by sending a written request to: Andrew Muns, Secretary, Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc., 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017.

**SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT** 

The following table sets forth, as of October 15, 2025, the beneficial ownership of each current director, each nominee for director, the Company's executive officers, each person known to us to beneficially own 5% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, and the executive officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities. Common stock subject to options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of October 15, 2025, are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such options or warrants. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Percentage of ownership is based on 14,419,762 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 15, 2025.

Unless otherwise indicated, to our knowledge, each stockholder listed below has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by the stockholder, except to the extent authority is shared by their spouses under applicable law. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of all executive officers and directors is c/o Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc., 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017.

The Company's directors are divided into two groups — interested directors and independent directors. Interested directors are "interested persons" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.

**PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTOR** 

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. The number of directors on our Board is currently fixed at five directors and divided into three classes. Each director holds office for the term to which he or she is elected and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. At each Annual Meeting, the successors to the class of directors whose terms expire at such meeting will be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held in the third year following the year of their election and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or any director's earlier resignation, death or removal.

Michael C. Mauer has been nominated for re-election for a three-year term expiring in 2028. Mr. Mauer is not being nominated to serve as a director pursuant to any agreement or understanding between him and the Company.

A stockholder can vote for or withhold his or her vote for the nominees. **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 nominee named in this proxy statement. If the nominee should decline or be unable to serve as a director, it is intended that the proxy will be voted for the election of such person as is nominated by the Board as a replacement.** The Board has no reason to believe that the nominee will be unable or unwilling to serve.

**Required Vote** 

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes. If you vote "withhold authority" with respect to the nominee, your shares will not be voted with respect to such person. Because directors are elected by a plurality of the votes, an abstention will have no effect on the outcome of the vote and, therefore, is not offered as a voting option for this proposal.

**THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF THE NOMINEE NAMED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.** 

**Information about Directors and Executive Officers** 

***Board of Directors***

We have adopted provisions in our articles of amendment and restatement that divide our Board into three classes. At each annual meeting, directors will be elected for staggered terms of three years, with the term of office of only one of these three classes of directors expiring each year. Each director will hold office for the term to which he or she is elected and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualifies.

Information regarding Mr. Mauer, who is being nominated for election as a director of the Company by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting, as well as information about our current directors whose terms of office will continue after the Annual Meeting, is below. There were no legal proceedings of the type. described in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past 10 years against any of the directors, director nominees, or officers of the Company and none are currently pending.

***Biographical Information***

The Board considered whether each of the directors is qualified to serve as a director, based on a review of the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of each director, including those described below. The Board considered whether each director has significant experience in the investment or financial services industries and has held management, board or oversight positions in other companies and organizations. For the purposes of this presentation, our directors have been divided into two groups — independent directors and interested directors. Interested directors are "interested persons" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.

***Independent Directors***

Since September 2019, Ms. Persily has served as chair of the Valuation Committee of the Board.

Ms. Persily received a B.A. in psychology and economics from Columbia College and a M.B.A in financing and accounting from Columbia Business School. We believe Ms. Persily's extensive experience with structuring, negotiating and marketing senior loans, high yield and mezzanine financings brings important and valuable skills to the Board.

Mr. Mauer received a B.S. from the University of Scranton and an M.B.A. from Columbia University.

**Board of Directors and Its Leadership Structure** 

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. The number of directors on our Board is currently fixed at five directors and divided into three classes. Three of the members of our Board are not "interested persons" of the Company, or its affiliates as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. We refer to these individuals as our "independent directors." The Board elects our officers, who serve at the discretion of the Board. The responsibilities of the Board include quarterly valuation of our assets, corporate governance activities, oversight of our financing arrangements and oversight of our investment activities.

Oversight of our investment activities extends to oversight of the risk management processes employed by our Adviser as part of its day-to-day management of our investment activities. The Board anticipates reviewing risk management processes at both regular and special board meetings throughout the year, consulting with appropriate representatives of our Adviser as necessary and periodically requesting the production of risk management reports or presentations. The goal of the Board's risk oversight function is to ensure that the risks associated with our investment activities are accurately identified, thoroughly investigated and responsibly addressed. Stockholders should note, however, that the Board's oversight function cannot eliminate all risks or ensure that particular events do not adversely affect the value of investments.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
The Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating and corporate governance committee and a valuation committee and may establish additional committees from time to time, as necessary. While our Board is ultimately responsible for risk oversight, the committees assist our Board in fulfilling its responsibility with respect to risk oversight. As discussed in greater detail below, committees assist our Board in the following ways:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the audit committee of the Board ("Audit Committee") assists with respect to risk management in the
areas of financial reporting, internal controls, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the nominating and governance committee of the Board (the "Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee") assists with respect to management of risks associated with Board organization and membership, and other corporate governance matters, as well as company culture and ethical compliance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the valuation committee of the Board (the "Valuation Committee") assists with respect to management
risks related to the valuation of our investment portfolio; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the compensation committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") assists with respect to
management of risks related to executive succession.

The scope of the responsibilities assigned to each of these committees is discussed in greater detail below. Mr. Mauer serves as our Chairman of the Board and Mr. Shaikh serves as our President, Chief Executive Officer, a member of the Board and the Chief Investment Officer of our Adviser. We believe that Mr. Mauer's history with our Adviser and its predecessor, CM Investment Partners, LP, his familiarity with its investment platform, and his extensive knowledge of and experience in the financial services industry qualify him to serve as the Chairman of our Board.

The Board does not have a lead independent director. We are aware of the potential conflicts that may arise when a non-independent director is Chairman of the Board, but believe these potential conflicts are offset by our strong corporate governance practices. Our corporate governance practices include regular meetings of the independent directors in executive session without the presence of interested directors and management, the establishment of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and Valuation Committee, each of which is comprised solely of independent directors, and the appointment of a Chief Compliance Officer, with whom the independent directors meet without the presence of interested directors and other members of management, who is responsible for administering our compliance policies and procedures.

The Board believes that its leadership structure is appropriate in light of our characteristics and circumstances because the structure allocates areas of responsibility among the individual directors and the committees in a manner that affords effective oversight. Specifically, the Board believes that the relationship of Mr. Mauer with our Adviser provides an effective bridge between the Board and management and encourages an open dialogue between management and our Board, ensuring that these groups act with a common purpose. The Board also believes that its small size creates a highly efficient governance structure that provides ample opportunity for direct communication and interaction between our management, our Adviser and the Board.

**Board Meetings** 

The Board met four times during the six-month fiscal period ended December 31, 2024. Each director attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and committees on which the director served that were held while the director was a member. The Board's standing committees are set forth below. We require each director to make a diligent effort to attend all Board and committee meetings, as well as each Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Our 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders was attended by each member of the Board.

The members of the Audit Committee are Ms. Persily, Mr. Shaiman and Mr. Sullivan, each of whom is independent for purposes of the 1940 Act and NASDAQ corporate governance regulations. Mr. Shaiman serves as the chairperson of the Audit Committee. Our Board has determined that Mr. Shaiman is an "audit committee financial expert" as that term is defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing our compensation policies generally, evaluating executive officer performance, overseeing and setting compensation for our directors and, as applicable, our executive officers and, as applicable, preparing the report on executive officer compensation that SEC rules require to be included in our annual proxy statement. Currently, none of our executive officers are compensated by us, and as such, the compensation committee is not required to produce a report on executive officer compensation for inclusion in our annual proxy statement.

The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain and terminate any compensation consultant assisting the Compensation Committee, including sole authority to approve all such compensation consultants' fees and other retention terms. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to subcommittees or the chairperson of the Compensation Committee when it deems appropriate and in our best interests.

A charter of the Compensation Committee is available in print to any stockholder who requests it, and it is also available on the Company's website at www.icmbdc.com.

The Compensation Committee did not meet during the six-month fiscal period ended December 31, 2024.

**Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee** 

The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Ms. Persily, Mr. Shaiman and Mr. Sullivan, each of whom is independent for purposes of the 1940 Act and NASDAQ corporate governance regulations. Mr. Sullivan serves as chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for selecting, researching and nominating directors for election by our stockholders, selecting nominees to fill vacancies on the Board or a committee of the Board, developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles and overseeing the evaluation of the Board and our management.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees to the Board recommended by a stockholder if such stockholder complies with the advance notice provisions of our bylaws. Our bylaws provide that a stockholder who wishes to nominate a person for election as a director at a meeting of stockholders must deliver written notice to our corporate secretary. This notice must contain, as to each nominee, all of the information relating to such person as would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement meeting the

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
requirements of Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, and certain other information set forth in the bylaws. In order to be eligible to be a nominee for election as a director by a stockholder, such potential nominee must deliver to our corporate secretary a written questionnaire providing the requested information about the background and qualifications of such person and would be in compliance with all of our publicly disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality and stock ownership and trading policies and guidelines.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not adopted a formal policy with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying individuals for election as members of the Board, but the committee will consider such factors as it may deem are in our best interests and those of our stockholders. Those factors may include a person's differences of viewpoint, professional experience, education and skills, as well as his or her race, gender and national origin. In addition, as part of the Board's annual self-assessment, the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate the membership of the Board and whether the Board maintains satisfactory policies regarding membership selection.

A charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is available in print to any stockholder who requests it, and it is also available on the Company's website at www.icmbdc.com.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met one time during the six-month fiscal period ended December 31, 2024.

**Valuation Committee** 

The members of the Valuation Committee are Ms. Persily, Mr. Shaiman and Mr. Sullivan, each of whom is not an interested person for purposes of the 1940 Act and NASDAQ corporate governance regulations. Ms. Persily serves as the chairperson of the Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee is responsible for aiding the Board in fair value pricing of our debt and equity investments that are not publicly traded or for which current market values are not readily available. The Board and the Valuation Committee utilize the services of an independent valuation firm to help them determine the fair value of these securities. The Board has engaged an independent valuation firm to review, on a periodic basis, at least once annually, the valuation for each of our Level 3 investments. We invest primarily in investments classified as Level 3. The Board, including the members of the Valuation Committee, also meet with the independent valuation firm periodically review the methodology of the independent valuation firm. The Valuation Committee reviews subsequent transactions to test the accuracy of the independent valuation firm's valuations.

The Valuation Committee met two times during the six-month fiscal period ended December 31, 2024.

**Corporate Governance** 

***Corporate Governance Documents***

We maintain a corporate governance webpage at the "Corporate Governance" link at www.icmbdc.com.

Our Corporate Governance Procedures, Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, Code of Ethics and Board committee charters are available at our corporate governance webpage at www.icmbdc.com and are also available to any stockholder who requests them by writing to our Secretary, Andrew Muns, at Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc., 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017.

***Director Independence***

In accordance with rules of NASDAQ, the Board annually determines the independence of each director. No director is considered independent unless the Board has determined that he or she has no material relationship with the Company. The Company monitors the status of its directors and officers through the activities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and through a questionnaire to be completed by each director no less frequently than annually, with updates periodically if information provided in the most recent questionnaire has changed.

In order to evaluate the materiality of any such relationship, the Board uses the definition of director independence set forth in the NASDAQ listing rules. Section 5605 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. Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act defines an "interested person" to include, among other things, any person who has, or within the last two years had, a material business or professional relationship with the Company or our Adviser.

The Board has determined that each of the directors is independent and has no relationship with the Company, except as a director and stockholder of the Company, with the exception of Messrs. Mauer and Shaikh, who are each interested persons of the Company due to their positions as officers of the Company and as officers of our Adviser.

***Annual Evaluation***

Our directors perform an evaluation, at least annually, of the effectiveness of the Board and its committees. This evaluation includes discussion among the Board and committees of the Board.

***Communication with the Board***

We believe that communications between our Board, our stockholders and other interested parties are an important part of our corporate governance process. Stockholders with questions about the Company are

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
encouraged to contact the Company's Investor Relations department at (646) 690-5034. However, if stockholders believe that their questions have not been addressed, they may communicate with the Company's Board by sending their communications to Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc., 280 Park Avenue, 39th Floor, New York, NY 10017, Attn.: Board of Directors or to icmbcompliance@investcorp.com. All stockholder communications received in this manner will be delivered to one or more members of the Board.

All communications involving accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters, possible violations of, or non-compliance with, applicable legal and regulatory requirements or policies, or retaliatory acts against anyone who makes such a complaint or assists in the investigation of such a complaint, will be referred to our Audit Committee.

The acceptance and forwarding of a communication to any director does not imply that the director owes or assumes any fiduciary duty to the person submitting the communication, all such duties being only as prescribed by applicable law.

***Code of Business Conduct and Ethics***

Our code of ethics, which is signed by directors and executive officers of the Company, requires that directors and executive officers avoid any conflict, or the appearance of a conflict, between an individual's personal interests and the interests of the Company. Pursuant to the code of ethics, which is available on our website under the "Corporate Governance" link at www.icmbdc.com, each director and executive officer must disclose any conflicts of interest, or actions or relationships that might give rise to a conflict, to the Audit Committee. Certain actions or relationships that might give rise to a conflict of interest are reviewed and approved by the Board.

***Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation***

All members of the Compensation Committee are independent directors and none of the members is a present or past employee of the Company. No member of the Compensation Committee: (i) has had any relationship with the Company requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act; or (ii) is an executive officer of another entity, at which one of our executive officers serves on the Board.

***Insider Trading Policy***

The Company has adopted insider trading policies and procedures (the "Insider Trading Policy") governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of the Company's securities by directors and officers that are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to the Company.

***Hedging Transactions***

The Insider Trading Policy does not expressly prohibit Covered Persons (as defined in the Insider Trading Policy) from engaging in certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions (e.g., zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts), but such transactions are strongly discouraged. In this regard, any person wishing to enter into such an arrangement must first pre-clear the proposed transaction with the Company's Chief Compliance Officer. Such request for pre-clearance of a hedging or similar arrangement must be received at least two weeks before the Covered Person intends to execute the documents in connection with the proposed transaction and must set forth the reason for the proposed transaction.

**CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS** 

The Company has procedures in place for the review, approval and monitoring of transactions involving the Company and certain persons related to the Company. As a BDC, the 1940 Act restricts the Company from participating in certain transactions with certain persons affiliated with the Company, including our officers, directors, and employees and any person controlling or under common control with us.

In order to ensure that we do not engage in any prohibited transactions with any persons affiliated with the Company, our officers screen each of our transactions for any possible affiliations, close or remote, between the proposed portfolio investment, the Company, companies controlled by us and our employees and directors. The Company will not enter into any transactions unless and until we are satisfied that the transaction is not prohibited by the 1940 Act or, if such prohibitions exist, the Company has taken appropriate actions to seek Board review and approval or exemptive relief from the SEC for such transaction.

***Investment Advisory Agreement***

The Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Adviser on August 30, 2019 (the "Advisory Agreement"), in which certain of the Company's directors and executive officers have ownership and financial interests. Mr. Mauer holds an approximate 17% interest in our Adviser. IVC Credit Management Financing, LLC holds an approximate 83% ownership interest in the Adviser. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay to the Adviser a base management fee and an incentive fee. Mr. Mauer, an interested member of the Board, has a direct or indirect pecuniary interest in the Adviser. The incentive fee will be computed and paid on income that we may not have yet received in cash at the time of payment. This fee structure may create an incentive for the Adviser to invest in certain types of speculative securities. Additionally, we will rely on investment professionals from the Adviser to assist the Board with the valuation of our portfolio investments. The Adviser's management fee and incentive fee is based on the value of our investments and, therefore, there may be a conflict of interest when personnel of the Adviser are involved in the valuation process for our portfolio investments.

***Administration Agreement***

The Company entered into an administration agreement with the Adviser on August 30, 2019 (the "Administration Agreement") pursuant to which the Adviser furnishes the Company with office facilities and equipment and provides it with the clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services necessary to conduct day-to-day operations. Under this Administration Agreement, the Adviser performs, or oversees the performance of, the Company's required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records which the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports to its stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. The Company reimburses the Adviser for the allocable portion (subject to the review of the Board) of overhead and other expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions, and the Company's allocable portion of the cost of its chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and his respective staff. In addition, the Adviser may satisfy certain of its obligations to the Company under the Administration Agreement through the services agreement with Investcorp International Inc., an affiliate of Investcorp, including supplying the Company with accounting and back-office professionals upon the request of the Adviser.

***Co-investment Exemptive Relief***

On July 20, 2021, the SEC issued an exemptive order (the "Exemptive Order"), which superseded a prior order issued on March 19, 2019, which permits the Company to co-invest, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, in certain private placement transactions with other funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates and any future funds that are advised by the Adviser or its affiliated investment advisers. Under the terms of the

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
exemptive order, in order for the Company to participate in a co-investment transaction a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the Company's independent directors must conclude that (i) the terms of the proposed transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Company and its stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of the Company or its stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (ii) the proposed transaction is consistent with the interests of the Company's stockholders and is consistent with the Company's investment objectives and strategies.

***License Agreement***

The Company has entered into a license agreement with the Adviser pursuant to which the Adviser has granted the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name "Investcorp."

***Other Conflicts of Interest***

The Company may also have conflicts of interest arising out of the investment advisory activities of the Adviser. The Adviser may manage other investment funds, accounts or investment vehicles that invest or may invest in assets eligible for purchase by the Company. To the extent that the Company competes with entities managed by the Adviser or any of its affiliates for a particular investment opportunity, the Adviser will allocate investment opportunities across the entities for which such opportunities are appropriate, consistent with (a) its internal investment allocation policies, (b) the requirements of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and (c) certain restrictions under the 1940 Act regarding co-investments with affiliates.

**SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE** 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the disclosure requirements of Item 405 of SEC Regulation S-K require that our directors and executive officers, and any persons holding more than 10% of any class of our equity securities report their ownership of such equity securities and any subsequent changes in that ownership to the SEC and to us. Based solely on a review of the written statements and copies of such reports furnished to us by our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners, we believe that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to the executive officers, directors and stockholders were timely satisfied.

**EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION** 

Currently, none of our executive officers are compensated by us. We currently have no employees, and each of our executive officers is also an employee of our Adviser. Mr. Mauer has a direct ownership and financial interest in and may receive compensation and/or profit distributions from the Adviser. Mr. Shaikh also has a financial interest in and may receive compensation from the Adviser. None of Mr. Mauer or Mr. Shaikh receives any direct compensation from us. See "Conflicts of Interest and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." Services necessary for our business are provided by individuals who are employees of our Adviser, pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement. Robert Andrew Muns, our Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, is paid by the Adviser, as our Administrator, subject to reimbursement by us of an allocable portion of such compensation for services rendered by Mr. Muns to us. To the extent that the Adviser outsources any of its functions, we will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without profit to the Adviser.

***Timing of Grants of Options***

We 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.

**PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES** 

The Board, including the Audit Committee and independent directors thereof, have selected KPMG LLP ("KPMG") to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

On September 18, 2024, the Audit Committee approved the dismissal of RSM US LLP ("RSM") as the independent registered public accounting firm effective upon the issuance of RSM's report on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The audit reports of RSM on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and they were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and the subsequent interim period through September 25, 2024, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with RSM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of RSM, would have caused RSM to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its audit report, and there were no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Effective September 18, 2024, the Audit Committee engaged KPMG to serve as such Company's independent registered public accounting firm. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and the subsequent interim period through September 25, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with KPMG regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a "disagreement" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a "reportable event" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

KPMG has advised the Company that neither the firm nor any present member or associate of it has any material financial interest, direct or indirect, in the Company or its affiliates. It is expected that a representative of KPMG will participate in the virtual Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she chooses and will be available to answer questions. It is not expected that a representative of RSM will participate in the Annual Meeting.

The following table presents fees for professional services rendered by KPMG and RSM for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and by RSM for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Aggregate audit and tax fees in the table below consist of fees billed and paid:

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Six Months Ended<br>December 31, 2024** | **Fiscal Year Ended<br>June 30, 2024** | **Fiscal Year Ended<br>June 30, 2023** |
|  Audit Fees | $594575 | $416125 | $326308 |
|  Audit-Related Fees | $— | $— | $— |

|  All Other Fees | $— | $— | $— |
|  **TOTAL FEES** | $**613475** | $**435625** | $**345808** |

---

Services rendered by KPMG and RSM in connection with fees presented above were as follows:

*Audit Fees.* Audit fees include fees for services that normally would be provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements and that generally only the independent accountant can provide. In addition to fees for the audit of our annual financial statements and the review of our quarterly financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, this category contains fees for comfort letters, consents, and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.

*Audit-Related Fees.* Audit related fees are assurance related services that traditionally are performed by the independent accountant, such as attest services that are not required by statute or regulation.

*Tax Fees.* Tax fees include professional fees for tax compliance and tax advice.

*All Other Fees.* Fees for other services would include fees for products and services other than the services reported above.

**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 the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The policy requires that the Audit Committee pre-approve all audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that the provision of such service does not impair the auditor's independence. In accordance with the pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee includes every year a discussion and pre-approval of such services and the expected costs of such services for the year.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax and other services that have not received general pre-approval at the first Audit Committee meeting of the year 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. The Audit Committee pre-approved 100% of services described in this policy.

**AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT** 

Management is responsible for the Company's internal controls and the financial reporting process. The independent auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company's financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States 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.

**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 the United States generally accepted accounting principles.

**Review and Discussion with Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm** 

The Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, *Professional Standards*, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. SAS No. 61, as amended, requires our independent registered public accounting firm to discuss with our Audit Committee, among other things, the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• methods used to account for significant unusual transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the effect of significant accounting policies in controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of
authoritative guidance or consensus;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the process used by management in formulating particularly sensitive accounting estimates and the basis for the
auditors' conclusions regarding the reasonableness of those estimates; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disagreements with management over the application of accounting principles, the basis for management's
accounting estimates and the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

The Audit Committee received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the applicable Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rule regarding the independent accountant's communications with audit committees concerning independence 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.

**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 include the audited financial statements in the Company's Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 31, 2024 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee also recommended the selection of KPMG to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 and the Board approved such recommendation.
