From time to time, we and the Adviser may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Our business is also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us or the Adviser. Given the inherent unpredictability of these types of legal and regulatory proceedings and the potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts that could be sought, an adverse outcome in certain matters could have a material effect on our or the Adviser’s financial condition or results of operations in any particular period. On April 27, 2026, a derivative action was brought by Richard Delman on behalf of the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging that the Adviser received excessive advisory fees in violation of its statutory fiduciary duty under Section 36(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The action seeks recovery of the allegedly excessive fees, injunctive relief, costs and rescission of the Investment Advisory Agreement pursuant to Section 47(b) of the Investment Company Act. This action is in its preliminary stages. The Adviser believes the claims asserted in the complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. The outcome of this matter is inherently uncertain, and the Adviser is unable to predict the ultimate outcome or estimate the amount or range of loss, if any, that may result from this matter.
