TPG Specialty Lending, Inc. Urges TICC Capital Corp. Stockholders to Elect T. Kelley Millet to TICC’s Board of Directors

Recommends Replacing an Ineffective Director with TSLX’s Highly Qualified and Independent Nominee to Bring a New Independent Perspective to the TICC Board and Effect Change at TICC

Outlines How TICC’s Current Directors Have Failed to Prevent a Decade of Abysmal Returns and Inappropriate Governance Practices at TICC

Urges TICC Stockholders to Vote the GOLD Proxy Card to Elect T. Kelley Millet to the TICC Board and Terminate TICC’s External Adviser’s Contract

NEW YORK—(BUSINESS WIRE)—TPG Specialty Lending, Inc. (“TSLX”; NYSE: TSLX), a specialty finance company focused on lending to middle-market companies, today issued a letter to TICC Capital Corp. (“TICC”; NASDAQ: TICC) stockholders recommending that stockholders elect TSLX’s highly qualified and independent nominee, T. Kelley Millet, to TICC’s Board of Directors at the 2016 Annual Meeting on September 2, 2016. Please click here to view the full letter: http://www.changeticcnow.com/content/uploads/2016/08/TSLX-Urges-TICC-Stockholders-to-Elect-Millet.pdf.

TSLX outlines how TICC’s current directors, including Tonia Pankopf, have failed to stop management from pursuing a strategy that has resulted in a decade of failed returns and inappropriate governance practices at TICC. In addition, TSLX describes how Mr. Millet’s more than 30 years of experience across the financial sector, including proven credit industry leadership roles as a CEO and director, make him the ideal independent candidate to effect much-needed change at TICC.

TSLX’s letter reiterates its commitment to delivering meaningful change and real value to TICC stockholders. The letter urges stockholders to protect their investment in TICC by signing and returning the GOLD proxy card voting FOR the termination of TICC’s investment advisory agreement and FOR the election of Mr. Millet to TICC’s Board of Directors.

TSLX’s proxy materials are also available through the SEC’s website and at www.changeTICCnow.com.

Fellow TICC Stockholders:
As you well know, an experienced, highly qualified and independent director is desperately needed on the Board of TICC Capital Corp. (“TICC” or the “Company”). This entrenched Board has Lme and again aMempted to gloss over a decade of underperformance and to disenfranchise stockholders – the true owners of TICC.
As the largest single stockholder of TICC, TPG Specialty Lending, Inc. (“TSLX”) has nominated T. Kelley Millet to be elected to the Board at TICC’s 2016 Annual MeeLng on September 2, 2016. Mr. Millet is highly qualified and independent, and he will prioriLze stockholders’ interests.
It is your right as a stockholder to vote for change at TICC. VOTE THE ENCLOSED GOLD CARD NOW to protect your investment and end more than a decade of failure at TICC.
We urge you to vote today to elect our highly qualified and independent nominee, T. Kelley Millet, to TICC’s Board of Directors and to terminate the investment advisory agreement between TICC and its external adviser.
Remember, stockholders have the right, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, to terminate the external adviser’s contract without the payment of any penalty or premium by stockholders.
Sincerely,
TPG Specialty Lending, Inc.

We believe the “independent” directors of TICC, including Tonia Pankopf, have done liMle to prevent the Company’s management and interested directors from destroying stockholder value and pursuing inappropriate governance pracLces.
TICC’S “INDEPENDENT” DIRECTORS HAVE SUPPORTED THE FOLLOWING:
THE ACTIONS OF TICC’S BOARD DEMONSTRATE A STUNNING LACK OF INDEPENDENCE. YOU DESERVE BETTER!
TICC’S “INDEPENDENT” DIRECTORS HAVE SUPPORTED THE FOLLOWING:
Failure to run a complete and fair process to evaluate offers from third parLes that would deliver beaer value to stockholders
Refusal to add independent, experienced directors aligned with stockholders’ interests
Inadequate disclosure in a conflicted transacLon, which led a federal judge to and that TICC likely violated securiLes laws and misled stockholders
Appointment of Mr. Novak to be “independent” Chairman of the Board a[er a 12-year tenure on the Board and documented poor corporate
governance pracLces
Unprecedented delay in scheduling the 2016 annual meeLng at the same
Lme as insiders accumulated 1.8 million shares AND failure to implement a share buyback program that would benefit ALL stockholders
ConLnued payment of a dividend that consists in part of investment capital, which has contributed to a significant decline in net asset value (“NAV”)
Why should you trust the “independent” members of this Board?

TICC’S BOARD HAS PRESIDED OVER A DECADE OF UNACCEPTABLE TOTAL RETURNS. VOTE TO END THIS FAILED STRATEGY!
TICC’s total returns underperform every significant benchmark
(1) Total return calcula;on includes share price apprecia;on and cumula;ve dividends paid
(2) TICC and benchmark returns indexed to November 21, 2003.
(3) BDC Composite comprised of ACAS, AINV, ARCC, BKCC, FSC, GBDC, HTGC, MAIN, MCC, NMFC, PNNT, PSEC, SLRC, TCAP, and TCRD
Note: Market data as of August 4, 2016
Source: Bloomberg, fixed income benchmark data from Markit iBoxx
TICC’s external adviser and the current Board of Directors are responsible for the Company’s total returns, which have underperformed every significant benchmark since its IPO in 2003.
These results are unacceptable to us. We believe the exisLng external adviser and the
Board have proven incapable of delivering compeLLve returns.
Make your voice heard. Replace an ineffecLve director with T. Kelley Millet, who is experienced, highly qualified and independent. VOTE GOLD TODAY.
