****YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT ****
Dear TICC Capital Corp. Shareholder:
The Annual Meeting of TICC Capital Corp. (the “Company” or “we”), which was held on June 26, 2014, has been adjourned to 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on July 17, 2014 to provide more time for the solicitation and submission of votes on the election of directors. You may recall that the Annual Meeting was initially scheduled for June 11, 2014, but it had to be postponed until June 26, 2014 due to a lack of quorum to properly convene the Annual Meeting.
This adjournment and
solicitation of additional votes is a costly process for
the Company, so it is important that you vote your shares by executing your proxy.
To the extent that we have to continue to solicit
the votes of shareholders who
have not voted their shares, the Company will continue to incur additional costs.
We are soliciting additional votes for the election of each of Charles M. Royce and Steven P. Novak as a director of the Company. Under our corporate by-laws, however, we need to obtain a majority of ALL outstanding shares to elect a director…so your vote is critically important.
Your broker is NOT permitted
to vote your shares with respect to this matter,
unless you provide specific voting instructions. Your shares will NOT be
represented
unless you either sign and return the enclosed voting form,
or vote by telephone or over the Internet.
Enclosed you will find an additional proxy card/voting instruction form for your convenience. We strongly encourage you to submit your enclosed voting form and exercise your right to vote, or vote by telephone or over the Internet.
As a shareholder, you have the right to vote over the Internet or by telephone, and we are asking you to do so now to save the Company further expense and to ensure that your vote is counted. Instructions on how to vote over the telephone or Internet are enclosed in this package.
If you sign and return the enclosed form without indicating a different choice, your shares will be voted “FOR” the election of the named nominees for director.
Thank you for your investment in TICC Capital Corp. and for voting your shares.
**** PLEASE VOTE TODAY****
If you have questions or need help voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitation firm, Georgeson Inc., at (866) 482-5136.
Sincerely,
Jonathan H. Cohen
Chief Executive Officer
