Company at a Glance

Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (NYSE: TPZ) invests in a portfolio of fixed income and equity securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies. The Fund’s goal is to provide stockholders a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to invest in a portfolio of companies that provide stable and defensive characteristics throughout economic cycles.

Infrastructure Asset Class

Increasingly, institutions have allocated a portion of their investment portfolio to infrastructure due to its desirable investment characteristics, which include:

• Long-term stable asset class with low historical volatility
   
• Attractive risk-adjusted returns
• Investment diversification through low historical correlation with other asset classes
• A potential inflation hedge through equity investments

For Investors Seeking

• A fund which invests in the historically stable and defensive power and energy infrastructure sectors 
• Monthly distributions
• Fund invested in fixed income securities with low volatility and more safety as well as MLPs for growth
• One Form 1099 per stockholder at the end of the year, thus avoiding multiple K-1s and multiple state filings related to individual MLP partnership investments

Power and Energy Infrastructure Operations

At the heart of the infrastructure asset class is power and energy infrastructure, illustrated in the box below:

Power Infrastructure — The ownership and operation of asset systems that provide electric power generation (including renewable energy), transmission and distribution.

Energy Infrastructure — The ownership and operation of a network of pipeline assets to transport, store, gather, and/or process crude oil, refined petroleum products, natural gas or natural gas liquids (including renewable energy).

Dear Fellow Stockholders,

Against a backdrop of geopolitical uncertainty and commodity price volatility, power and energy infrastructure companies continued to demonstrate solid fundamentals during our first fiscal quarter ended Feb. 28, 2011.

Power and Energy Infrastructure Sector Review and Outlook

The TPZ Benchmark Index* (comprised of a blend of debt and equity securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies) had a total return of 2.3 percent during our first fiscal quarter, driven primarily by distribution growth in energy infrastructure equities. During the same period, the Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index had a total return of negative 0.7 percent, as bond valuations decreased in a slightly higher interest rate environment, and the broader equity market represented by the S&P 500 had a total return of 13.0 percent, as a result of positive leading economic indicators driving confidence.

Economic activity drove higher electricity demand in the power infrastructure sector and greater demand for energy commodities. Additionally, demand for the ample, domestic supply of natural gas continues to increase as power companies switch to low-cost cleaner burning fuels. We expect growth capital in fiscal 2011 to be consistent with recent levels of investment and to focus on electric power transmission, cleaner power generation, and oil and gas shale development.

While TPZ has a significant amount of fixed income holdings, its ability to invest a significant portion of its assets in equities provides a partial inflation hedge. Additionally, the regulated nature of the underlying assets should continue to position energy infrastructure companies well in a higher inflationary environment. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) recently increased the inflation escalator associated with the tariff pricing of petroleum pipelines to the Producer Price Index plus 2.65 percent (previously 1.30 percent), which will commence for the five year period beginning July 1, 2011.

Fund Performance Review and Outlook

Our total assets increased from $204.1 million on Nov. 30, 2010 to $212.3 million on Feb. 28, 2011, resulting primarily from market appreciation of our investments. Our total return based on market value (including the reinvestment of distributions) for the first fiscal quarter of 2011 was 9.5 percent, as compared to 4.7 percent for the prior fiscal quarter ended Nov. 30, 2010 and 7.3 percent for the first fiscal quarter of 2010.

During the fiscal quarter, we paid monthly distributions of $0.125 per share ($1.50 annualized). This represented an annualized yield of 6.0 percent based on the closing fiscal quarter price of $24.86. Our payout ratio of distributions to distributable cash flow (DCF) for the fiscal quarter was 99.1 percent.

We ended our fiscal quarter with leverage at 15.2 percent of total assets, well below our long-term target of 20 percent. We continue to seek to emphasize quality and DCF sustainability through a conservative leverage policy. Through the utilization of interest rate swaps, we have essentially fixed the rate on approximately 83.6 percent of our leverage, which has a weighted average maturity of 2.5 years and a weighted average cost of 3.49 percent as of fiscal quarter end.

Additional information about our financial performance is available in the Key Financial Data and Management’s Discussion of this report.

Management’s Discussion(Unaudited)

The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and the Notes thereto. In addition, this report contains certain forward-looking statements. These statements include the plans and objectives of management for future operations and financial objectives and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” or “continue” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements are subject to the inherent uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions. Certain factors that could cause actual results and conditions to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements are set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our public filings with the SEC.

Overview

Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc.’s (“TPZ”) primary investment objective is to provide a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. We seek to provide our stockholders a vehicle to invest in a portfolio consisting primarily of securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies. Power infrastructure operations use asset systems to provide electric power generation (including renewable energy), transmission and distribution. Energy infrastructure operations use a network of pipeline assets to transport, store, gather and/or process crude oil, refined petroleum products (including biodiesel and ethanol), natural gas or natural gas liquids. We believe the power and energy infrastructure sectors provide stable and defensive characteristics throughout economic cycles. A majority of the investments are in fixed income securities with the remainder invested in equities which provide growth potential.

TPZ is a registered non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and expects to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. (the “Adviser”) serves as investment adviser.

Company Update

Market values of both our debt and equity investments ended the 1st quarter 2011 above their levels at November 30, 2010, contributing to an increase of $8.2 million in total assets. Interest and distributions received from our investments declined slightly during the quarter while the increase in total assets during the quarter resulted in increased asset-based expenses. Total leverage decreased as a percent of total assets and we maintained our monthly distribution of $0.125 per share. Additional information on the results of our operations is discussed in more detail below.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial statements are based on the selection and application of critical accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, complex, or subjective judgments. Our critical accounting policies are those applicable to the valuation of investments and certain revenue recognition matters as discussed in Note 2 in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Determining Distributions to Stockholders

Unlike most RIC’s which pay distributions based upon income, we pay monthly distributions based upon our distributable cash flow (“DCF”). Our Board of Directors reviews the distribution rate quarterly, and may adjust the monthly distributions throughout the year.

Determining DCF

DCF is simply income from investments less expenses. Income from investments includes the accrued interest from corporate bonds, cash distributions and paid-in-kind distributions from MLPs and related companies and dividends earned from short-term investments. The total expenses include current or anticipated operating expenses and leverage costs. Each are summarized for you in the table on page 2 and are discussed in more detail below.

The Key Financial Data table discloses the calculation of DCF and should be read in conjunction with this discussion. The difference between income from investments in the DCF calculation and total investment income as reported in the Statement of Operations, is reconciled as follows: (1) GAAP recognizes distribution income from MLPs and common stock on their ex-dates, whereas the DCF calculation reflects distribution income on their pay dates; (2) GAAP recognizes that a significant portion of the cash distributions received from MLPs are characterized as a return of capital and therefore excluded from investment income, whereas the DCF calculation includes the return of capital; (3) income from investments in the DCF calculation includes the value of dividends paid-in-kind (additional stock or units), whereas such amounts are not included as income for GAAP purposes; and (4) amortization of premium or discount for all securities is calculated using the yield to worst methodology for GAAP purposes while yield to call is used in calculating amortization for long-dated hybrid securities in the DCF calculation. The treatment of expenses in the DCF calculation also differs from what is reported in the Statement of Operations. In addition to the total operating expenses, including expense reimbursement, as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, the DCF calculation reflects interest expense and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on interest rate swap settlements as leverage costs. A reconciliation of Net Investment Income to DCF is included below.

Income from Investments

We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing in income-producing fixed income and equity securities of companies that we believe offer attractive distribution rates. We evaluate each holding based upon its contribution to our investment income and its risk relative to other potential investments.

Total income from investments for the 1st quarter 2011 was approximately $3.5 million, a slight decrease as compared to 4th quarter 2010. This decrease is due to an exchange during the quarter from a higher yielding debt investment to lower yielding investments, offset by distribution increases from our MLPs.

Expenses

We incur two types of expenses: (1) operating expenses, consisting primarily of the advisory fee, and (2) leverage costs. On a percentage basis, operating expenses before leverage costs were an annualized 1.03 percent of average total assets for 1st quarter 2011 as compared to 1.01 percent for the 4th quarter 2010 and 1.07 percent for 1st quarter 2010. Advisory fees for 1st quarter 2011 increased 1.0 percent from 4th quarter 2010 as a result of increased market values and average managed assets during the quarter.

While the contractual advisory fee is 0.95 percent of average monthly managed assets, the Adviser has agreed to waive an amount equal to 0.15, 0.15 and 0.10 percent of average monthly managed assets for the calendar years 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

Leverage costs consist of two major components: (1) the direct interest expense, which will vary from period to period, as our senior notes and revolving credit facility have variable rates of interest, and (2) the realized and unrealized gain or loss on our interest rate swap settlements. Detailed information on our senior notes and revolving credit facility is included in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below.

2011 1st Quarter Report 3

Management’s Discussion (Unaudited)
(Continued)

As indicated in Note 10 of our Notes to Financial Statements, we have entered into $27 million notional amount of interest rate swap contracts with Wells Fargo Bank in an attempt to reduce a portion of the interest rate risk arising from our leveraged capital structure. TPZ has agreed to pay Wells Fargo Bank a fixed rate while receiving a floating rate based upon the 1-month or 3-month U.S. Dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The spread between the fixed swap rate and LIBOR is reflected in our Statement of Operations as a realized or unrealized gain when LIBOR exceeds the fixed rate (Wells Fargo Bank pays TPZ the net difference) or a realized or unrealized loss when the fixed rate exceeds LIBOR (TPZ pays Wells Fargo Bank the net difference). The interest rate swap contracts have a weighted average fixed rate of 2.13 percent and weighted average remaining maturity of approximately 2.6 years at February 28, 2011. This swap arrangement effectively fixes the cost on approximately 84 percent of our outstanding leverage as of February 28, 2011 over the remaining swap period.

Total leverage costs for DCF purposes were approximately $297,000 for the 1st quarter 2011, a decrease of approximately 2 percent as compared to 4th quarter 2010 due primarily to reduced utilization of our credit facility during the 1st quarter 2011. This includes interest expense on our senior notes and bank credit facility and accrued swap settlement costs of approximately $124,000. The average annualized total cost of leverage (total leverage costs divided by average outstanding leverage) was 3.78 percent for 1st quarter 2011.

Distributable Cash Flow

For 1st quarter 2011, our DCF was approximately $2.63 million, a decrease of 0.8 percent as compared to 4th quarter 2010. This decrease is the net result of the change in distributions and expenses as outlined above. On November 8, 2010, we declared monthly distributions for the 2011 1st fiscal quarter of $0.125 per share. This is unchanged as compared to 4th quarter 2010.

Our dividend payout ratio as a percentage of DCF increased from 98.2 percent during 4th quarter 2010 to 99.1 percent during 1st quarter 2011. A payout of less than 100 percent of DCF provides cushion for on-going management of the portfolio, changes in leverage costs and other expenses. An on-going payout ratio in excess of 100 percent will, over time, erode the earning power of a portfolio and may lead to lower distributions or portfolio managers taking on more risk than they otherwise would.

Net investment income on the Statement of Operations is adjusted as follows to reconcile to DCF for the 1st quarter 2011 (in thousands):

	1st Qtr 2011
Net Investment Income	$	1,326
Adjustments to reconcile to DCF:
Dividends paid in stock		604
Return of capital on distributions		755
Amortization of debt issuance costs		9
Interest rate swap expenses		(124	)
Change in amortization methodology		58
DCF	$	2,628

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had total assets of $212.3 million at quarter-end. Our total assets reflect the value of our investments, which are itemized in the Schedule of Investments. It also reflects cash, interest and receivables and any expenses that may have been prepaid. During the 1st quarter 2011, total assets increased from $204.1 million to $212.3 million, an increase of $8.2 million which was primarily the result of net realized and unrealized gains on investments during the quarter (excluding return of capital on distributions reflected during the quarter) offset by a small reduction in outstanding borrowings on our bank credit facility.

Total leverage outstanding at February 28, 2011 of $32.3 million is comprised of $20 million floating rate senior notes and $12.3 million outstanding on our bank credit facility. Through the utilization of our interest rate swaps, we have essentially fixed the rate on approximately 84 percent of our leverage with the remaining 16 percent floating based upon short-term LIBOR. Total leverage represented 15.2 percent of total assets. We’ve allowed leverage as a percent of total assets to decrease as market values increased rather than maintain leverage to total assets at the long-term target level of 20 percent of total assets. This allows the opportunity to add leverage when compelling investment opportunities arise. Temporary increases to up to 25 percent of our total assets may be permitted, provided that such leverage is consistent with the limits set forth in the 1940 Act, and that such leverage is expected to be reduced over time in an orderly fashion to reach our long-term target. Our leverage ratio is impacted by increases or decreases in investment values, issuance of equity and/or the sale of securities where proceeds are used to reduce leverage.

We have used leverage to acquire investments consistent with our investment philosophy. The terms of our leverage are governed by regulatory and contractual asset coverage requirements that arise from the use of leverage. Additional information on our leverage and asset coverage requirements is discussed in Note 9 in the Notes to Financial Statements. Our coverage ratio is updated each week on our Web site at www.tortoiseadvisors.com.

Taxation of our Distributions

We expect that distributions paid on common shares will generally consist of: (i) investment company taxable income (which includes, among other items, taxable interest and the excess of any short-term capital gains over net long-term capital losses); (ii) long-term capital gain (net gain from the sale of a capital asset held longer than 12 months over net short-term capital losses) and (iii) return of capital.

We may distribute additional capital gains in the last fiscal quarter if necessary to meet minimum distribution requirements and thus avoid being subject to excise taxes. If, however, we elect to retain any capital gains, we will be subject to U.S. capital gains taxes. The payment of those taxes will flow-through to stockholders as a tax credit to apply against their U.S. income tax payable on the deemed distribution of the retained capital gain.

For tax purposes, distributions paid to common stockholders for the calendar year ended December 31, 2010 were approximately 88 percent ordinary income (none of which is qualified dividend income), 6 percent long-term capital gain and 6 percent return of capital. A holder of our common stock would reduce their costs basis for income tax purposes by approximately 6 percent of the total distributions they received in 2010. This information is reported to stockholders on Form 1099-DIV and is available on our Web site at www.tortoiseadvisors.com.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
February 28, 2011

1. Organization

Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized as a Maryland corporation on July 5, 2007, and is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company’s primary investment objective is to provide a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Company seeks to provide its stockholders with a vehicle to invest in a portfolio consisting primarily of securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies. The Company commenced operations on July 31, 2009. The Company’s stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “TPZ.”

2. Significant Accounting Policies

A. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, recognition of distribution income and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

B. Investment Valuation

The Company primarily owns securities that are listed on a securities exchange or over-the-counter market. The Company values those securities at their last sale price on that exchange or over-the-counter market on the valuation date. If the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Company uses the price from the exchange that it considers to be the principal exchange on which the security is traded. Securities listed on the NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. If there has been no sale on such exchange or over-the-counter market on such day, the security will be valued at the mean between the last bid price and last ask price on such day.

The Company may invest up to 15 percent of its total assets in restricted securities. Restricted securities are subject to statutory or contractual restrictions on their public resale, which may make it more difficult to obtain a valuation and may limit the Company’s ability to dispose of them. Investments in private placement securities and other securities for which market quotations are not readily available will be valued in good faith by using fair value procedures approved by the Board of Directors. Such fair value procedures consider factors such as discounts to publicly traded issues, time until conversion date, securities with similar yields, quality, type of issue, coupon, duration and rating. If events occur that affect the value of the Company’s portfolio securities before the net asset value has been calculated (a “significant event”), the portfolio securities so affected will generally be priced using fair value procedures.

An equity security of a publicly traded company acquired in a direct placement transaction may be subject to restrictions on resale that can affect the security’s liquidity and fair value. Such securities that are convertible or otherwise will become freely tradable will be valued based on the market value of the freely tradable security less an applicable discount. Generally, the discount will initially be equal to the discount at which the Company purchased the securities. To the extent that such securities are convertible or otherwise become freely tradable within a time frame that may be reasonably determined, an amortization schedule may be used to determine the discount.

The Company generally values debt securities at prices based on market quotations for such securities, except those securities purchased with 60 days or less to maturity are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value.

The Company generally values its interest rate swap contracts using industry-accepted models which discount the estimated future cash flows based on the stated terms of the interest rate swap agreement by using interest rates currently available in the market, or based on dealer quotations, if available.

C. Security Transactions and Investment Income

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses are reported on an identified cost basis. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend and distribution income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions received from the Company’s investments in master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital from the MLPs. The Company allocates distributions between investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on actual allocations received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions is not known until after the fiscal year end of the Company.

For the period from December 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011, the Company estimated the allocation of investment income and return of capital for the distributions received from MLPs within the Statement of Operations. For this period, the Company has estimated approximately 10 percent as investment income and approximately 90 percent as return of capital.

D. Distributions to Stockholders

Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Company intends to make monthly cash distributions of its investment company income to common stockholders. In addition, on an annual basis, the Company may distribute additional capital gains in the last fiscal quarter if necessary to meet minimum distribution requirements and thus avoid being subject to excise taxes. The amount of any distributions will be determined by the Board of Directors. Distributions to stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The character of distributions made during the year may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Distributions paid to stockholders in excess of investment company taxable income and net realized gains will be treated as return of capital to stockholders. For the year ended November 30, 2010, the Company’s distributions were comprised of 87 percent ordinary income, 6 percent long-term capital gain and 7 percent return of capital. The tax character of distributions paid to common stockholders for the current year will be determined subsequent to November 30, 2011.

2011 1st Quarter Report 11

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Continued)

E. Federal Income Taxation

The Company qualifies as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a result, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on income and gains that it distributes each taxable year to stockholders if it meets certain minimum distribution requirements. The Company is required to distribute substantially all of its income, in addition to other asset diversification requirements. The Company is subject to a 4 percent non-deductible U.S. federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless the Company makes sufficient distributions to satisfy the excise tax avoidance requirement. The Company invests in MLPs, which generally are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. As a limited partner in the MLPs, the Company reports its allocable share of the MLP’s taxable income in computing its own taxable income.

The Company has adopted financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Company has reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded that there is no impact on the Company’s net assets and no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. All tax years since inception remain open to examination by federal and state tax authorities.

F. Offering and Debt Issuance Costs

Offering costs related to the issuance of common stock are charged to additional paid-in capital when the stock is issued. Debt issuance costs related to long-term debt obligations are capitalized and amortized over the period the debt is outstanding.

G. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments (principally interest rate swap contracts) to manage interest rate risk. The Company has established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. All derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value during the reporting period, and amounts accrued under the agreements, included as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Operations. Cash settlements under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements and termination of such agreements are recorded as realized gains or losses in the Statement of Operations.

H. Indemnifications

Under the Company’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Company may enter into contracts that provide general indemnification to other parties. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred, and may not occur. However, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

3. Concentration of Risk

Under normal circumstances, the Company intends to invest at least 80 percent of total assets (including assets obtained through potential leverage) in securities of companies that derive more than 50 percent of their revenue from power or energy operations and no more than 25 percent of the total assets in equity securities of MLPs as of the date of purchase. The Company will invest a minimum of 60 percent of total assets in fixed income securities, which may include up to 25 percent of its assets in non-investment grade rated fixed income securities. In determining application of these policies, the term “total assets” includes assets obtained through leverage. Companies that primarily invest in a particular sector may experience greater volatility than companies investing in a broad range of industry sectors. The Company may, for defensive purposes, temporarily invest all or a significant portion of its assets in investment grade securities, short-term debt securities and cash or cash equivalents. To the extent the Company uses this strategy, it may not achieve its investment objective.

4. Agreements

The Company has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. (the “Adviser”). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company pays the Adviser a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.95 percent of the Company’s average monthly total assets (including any assets attributable to leverage) minus accrued liabilities (other than debt entered into for purposes of leverage and the aggregate liquidation preference of outstanding preferred stock) (“Managed Assets”), in exchange for the investment advisory services provided.

5. Income Taxes

It is the Company’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.

The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains or losses on investments. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, may result in reclassifications to undistributed net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) and additional paid-in capital.

As of November, 2010, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Unrealized appreciation	$	39,732,441
Other temporary differences		(32,877	)
Accumulated earnings	$	39,699,564

As of February 28, 2011, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was $158,312,624. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was $51,416,231, the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value was $0 and the net unrealized appreciation was $51,416,231.

6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Company’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 —	quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 —	other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, market corroborated inputs, etc.)
Level 3 —	significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following table provides the fair value measurements of applicable Company assets and liabilities by level within the fair value hierarchy as of February 28, 2011. These assets and liabilities are measured on a recurring basis.

Valuation Techniques

In general, and where applicable, the Company uses readily available market quotations based upon the last updated sales price from the principal market to determine fair value. This pricing methodology applies to the Company’s Level 1 investments.

Some debt securities are fair valued using a market value obtained from an approved pricing service which utilizes a pricing matrix based upon yield data for securities with similar characteristics or from a direct written broker-dealer quotation from a dealer who has made a market in the security. This pricing methodology applies to the Company’s Level 2 assets.

Interest rate swap contracts are valued by using industry-accepted models which discount the estimated future cash flows based on a forward rate curve and the stated terms of the interest rate swap agreement by using interest rates currently available in the market, or based on dealer quotations, if available, which applies to the Company’s Level 2 liabilities.

The Company utilizes the beginning of reporting period method for determining transfers between levels. There were no transfers between levels for the period from December 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011.

8. Investment Transactions

For the period from December 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011, the Company purchased (at cost) and sold securities (proceeds received) in the amount of $4,279,590 and $5,293,689 (excluding short-term debt securities), respectively.

9. Long-Term Debt Obligations

The Company has $20,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Series A private senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. Holders of the Notes are entitled to receive quarterly cash interest payments at an annual rate that resets each quarter based on the 3-month LIBOR plus 1.87 percent. The Notes are not listed on any exchange or automated quotation system.

The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, will rank: (1) senior to all of the Company’s outstanding preferred shares (if any); (2) senior to all of the Company’s outstanding common shares; (3) on parity with any unsecured creditors of the Company and any unsecured senior securities representing indebtedness of the Company and (4) junior to any secured creditors of the Company.

The Notes are redeemable in certain circumstances at the option of the Company. The Notes are also subject to a mandatory redemption if the Company fails to meet asset coverage ratios required under the 1940 Act or the rating agency guidelines if such failure is not waived or cured. At February 28, 2011, the Company was in compliance with asset coverage covenants and basic maintenance covenants for its senior notes.

At February 28, 2011, fair value of the Series A Notes approximates the carrying amount because the interest rate fluctuates with changes in interest rates available in the current market. The following table shows the maturity date, notional/carrying amount, current rate as of February 28, 2011, and the weighted-average rate for the period from December 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011.

				Weighted-

10. Interest Rate Swap Contracts

The Company has entered into interest rate swap contracts in an attempt to protect itself from increasing interest expense on its leverage resulting from increasing short-term interest rates. A decline in interest rates may result in a decline in the value of the swap contracts, which may result in a decline in the net assets of the Company. In addition, if the counterparty to the interest rate swap contracts defaults, the Company would not be able to use the anticipated receipts under the swap contracts to offset the interest payments on the Company’s leverage. At the time the interest rate swap contracts reach their scheduled termination, there is a risk that the Company would not be able to obtain a replacement transaction, or that the terms of the replacement would not be as favorable as on the expiring transaction. In addition, if the Company is required to terminate any swap contract early due to the Company failing to maintain a required 300 percent asset coverage of the liquidation value of the outstanding senior notes or if the Company loses its credit rating on its senior notes, then the Company could be required to make a termination payment, in addition to redeeming all or some of the senior notes. Details of the interest rate swap contracts outstanding as of February 28, 2011, are as follows:

				Fixed Rate
				Paid by	Floating Rate	Asset
	Maturity	Notional		the	Received by	(Liability)
Counterparty	Date	Amount		Company	the Company	Derivatives
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.	11/06/2011	$	6,000,000	1.12%	1-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR	$	(37,531	)
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.	11/06/2012		5,000,000	1.81%	3-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR		(99,874	)
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.	11/06/2012		1,000,000	1.73%	1-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR		(19,688	)
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.	11/06/2014		15,000,000	2.66%	3-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR		(526,366	)
		$	27,000,000			$	(683,459	)

The Company is exposed to credit risk on the interest rate swap contracts if the counterparty should fail to perform under the terms of the interest rate swap contracts. The amount of credit risk is limited to the net appreciation of the interest rate swap contracts, if any, as no collateral is pledged by the counterparty.

The change in unrealized appreciation of interest rate swap contracts in the amount of $301,565 is included in the Statement of Operations for the period ended February 28, 2011. Cash settlement payments under the terms of the interest rate swap contracts in the amount of $126,052 are recorded as realized losses for the period ended February 28, 2011. The total notional amount of all open swap agreements at February 28, 2011 is indicative of the volume of this derivative type for the period ended February 28, 2011.

11. Credit Facility

On September 14, 2010, the Company entered into an amendment to its credit facility that extends the credit facility through September 14, 2011. U.S. Bank, N.A. serves as a lender and the leading syndicate agent on behalf of other lenders participating in the credit facility. The terms of the amendment provide for an unsecured revolving credit facility of $18,000,000. During the extension, outstanding balances generally will accrue interest at a variable annual rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.25 percent and unused portions of the credit facility will accrue a non-usage fee equal to an annual rate of 0.20 percent.

The average principal balance and interest rate for the period during which the credit facility was utilized during the period ended February 28, 2011 was approximately $11,900,000 and 1.51 percent, respectively. At February 28, 2011, the principal balance outstanding was $12,300,000 at an interest rate of 1.51 percent.

Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company must maintain asset coverage required under the 1940 Act. If the Company fails to maintain the required coverage, it may be required to repay a portion of an outstanding balance until the coverage requirement has been met. At February 28, 2011, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the credit facility.

12. Common Stock

The Company has 100,000,000 shares of capital stock authorized and 6,940,986 shares outstanding at February 28, 2011 and November 30, 2010.

13. Subsequent Events

On March 31, 2011, the Company paid a distribution in the amount of $0.125 per common share, for a total of $867,623. Of this total, the dividend reinvestment amounted to $143,485.

The Company has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that no additional items require recognition or disclosure.
