Notes to Financial Statements

September 30, 2016

(unaudited)

Note 1. Organization

Audax Credit BDC Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that was formed on January 29, 2015. The Company is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, effective with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2015, the Company has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Company commenced business operations on July 8, 2015, the date on which the company made its first investment. The Company has been formed for the purpose of investing primarily in the debt of leveraged, non-investment grade middle market companies, with the principal objective of generating income and capital appreciation. The Company’s investment strategy is to invest primarily in first lien senior secured loans and selectively in second lien loans to middle market companies. During the period prior to July 8, 2015, the Company was a development stage company, as defined in Paragraph 915-10-05, Development Stage Entity, of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB’s”) Accounting Standards Codification, as amended (“ASC”) . During this time, the Company was devoting substantially all of its efforts to establishing its business and its planned principal operations had not commenced. All losses accumulated during the period prior to July 8, 2015 have been considered a part of the Company’s development stage activities.

Audax Management Company (NY), LLC (the “Adviser”) is the investment adviser of the Company. The Adviser is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

As an investment company, the accompanying financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of ASC Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies,” as amended, which incorporates the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X, as well as accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including certain financial statement footnotes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted herein. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management of the Company, the unaudited financial results included herein contain all adjustments, consisting solely of normal accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim period included herein. The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for future periods. The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S dollars.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ and these differences could be material.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less and money market mutual funds to be cash equivalents. No cash equivalent balances were held at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. At such dates, cash was not subject to any restrictions on withdrawal.

Organization and Offering Expenses

The Company did not incur any organizational costs for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2016. The Company incurred organizational costs of $4,060 and $304,724 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015, respectively. Organization costs included the cost of incorporating, including the cost of legal services and other fees pertaining to the Company’s organization. These costs were expensed on the Company’s statement of operations as incurred. The Company also incurred offering costs of $145,358 in prior periods. The Company’s offering costs included legal fees and other costs pertaining to the preparation of the Company’ Registration Statement and sale of the Company’s shares of common stock. The Company capitalized these expenses and amortized them on a straight-line basis over a twelve-month period. The amortization is included within professional fees and other expenses within the statement of operations and amounted to $0 and $72,679 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The amortization is included within professional fees and other expenses within the Statement of Operations and amounted to $36,339 for three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 to September 30, 2015.

Expenses

The Company is responsible for investment expenses, legal expenses, auditing fees and other expenses related to the Company’s operations. Such fees and expenses, including expenses initially incurred by the Adviser, may be reimbursed by the Company.

Investment Valuation Policy

The Company conducts the valuation of the Company’s investments, pursuant to which the Company’s net asset value is determined, at all times consistent with GAAP and the 1940 Act. The Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of the Audit Committee, determines the fair value of the Company’s investments, for investments with a public market, daily, and for investments with no readily available public market, on at least a quarterly basis, in accordance with the terms of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” as amended (“ASC 820”). The Company’s valuation procedures are set forth in more detail below.

ASC 820 defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. For some assets and liabilities, observable market transactions or market information might be available. For other assets and liabilities, observable market transactions and market information might not be available. However, the objective of a fair value measurement in both cases is the same – to estimate the price when an orderly transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions (that is, an exit price at the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability).

ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework which ranks the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instruments and their specific characteristics. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement is defined as follows:

Level 1 —

Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these instruments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position, and a sale could reasonably be expected to impact the quoted price.

Level 2 —

Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in markets that are not active, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.

Level 3 —

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments in this category include investments in privately held entities, non-investment grade residual interests in securitizations, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument.

Pursuant to the framework set forth above, the Company values securities traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the exchange closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments from pricing services, brokers or dealers’ quotes, or counterparty marks in order to value liquid assets that are not traded in active markets.

Pricing services aggregate, evaluate and report pricing from a variety of sources including observed trades of identical or similar securities, broker or dealer quotes, model-based valuations and internal fundamental analysis and research. When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined adequate, the Company uses the quote obtained.

Securities that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors, does not represent fair value, are each valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available. These valuation techniques vary by investment but include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and discounted cash flow analyses. The process used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by the investment professionals of the Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment using a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs and updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with the Company’s senior management and members of the Company’s Adviser’s valuation team; (iii) the Company’s Audit Committee reviews the assessments of the Adviser and provides the Company’s Board of Directors with recommendations with respect to the fair value of the investments in the Company’s portfolio; and (iv) the Company’s Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Company’s Audit Committee and determines the fair value of the investments in the Company’s portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Adviser and in accordance with the Company’s valuation policy.

The Company’s Audit Committee’s recommendation of fair value is generally based on its assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

the portfolio company’s ability to make payments;

the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

prevailing interest rates for like securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

the markets in which the issuer does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

comparisons to publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available as of the measurement date, which in many cases may reflect up to a one quarter lag in information.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which a pricing source is not sufficient may include the following:

private placements and restricted securities that do not have an active trading market;

securities whose trading has been suspended or for which market quotes are no longer available;

debt securities that have recently gone into default and for which there is no current market;

securities whose prices are stale; and

securities affected by significant events.

The Company’s Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for the determination, in good faith, of the fair value of the Company’s portfolio investments.

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, these notes to the Company’s financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on the Company’s financial statements.

Security transactions are recorded on trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed or, in the case of privately issued securities, the closing date, which is when all terms of the transactions have been defined). Realized gains and losses on investments are determined based on the identified cost method.

Refer to Note 3 — Investments in the notes accompanying our financial statements for additional information regarding fair value measurements and the Company’s application of ASC 820.

Interest Income Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums, acquisition costs, and amendment fees and the accretion of original issue discount (“OID”), is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Generally, when a loan becomes 120 days or more past due, or if the Company’s qualitative assessment indicates that the debtor is unable to service its debt or other obligations, the Company will place the loan on non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until the borrower has demonstrated the ability and intent to pay contractual amounts due. However, the Company will remain contractually entitled to this interest. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current or, due to a restructuring, the interest income is deemed to be collectible.

The Company currently holds loans in the portfolio that contain OID and expects to hold loans in the future that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. The Company recognizes OID for loans originally issued at a discount and recognizes the income over the life of the obligation based on an effective yield calculation. PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in a loan agreement, is added to the principal balance of a loan and recorded as income over the life of the obligation. Therefore, the actual collection of PIK income may be deferred until the time of debt principal repayment. To maintain the ability to be taxed as a RIC, the Company may need to pay out of both OID and PIK non-cash income amounts in the form of distributions, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash on either.

As of September 30, 2016, the Company held 68 investments in loans with OID. The Company accrued OID income of $57,327 and $130,467 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. The unamortized balance of OID investments as of September 30, 2016, totaled $1,523,310. As of December 31, 2015, the Company held 40 investments in loans with OID. The unamortized balance of OID investments as of December 31, 2015, totaled $845,411. The Company accrued OID income of $2,725 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company held $20,915,053 and $43,155,376 of cash and cash equivalents, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company earned interest income related to cash of $12,061 and $40,615, respectively, which is included in other interest income within the accompanying statement of operations. The Company earned $1,998 of interest income related to cash for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015.

Other Income Recognition

The Company generally records prepayment fees upon receipt of cash.

Dividend income on equity investments is accrued to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected and if the Company has the option to collect such amounts in cash.

Prepayment fees and dividend income are both accrued in other income in the accompanying statements of operations.

The Company accrued $7,948 and $25,261 of other income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 related to amendment fees. The Company did not record any other income for the three months ended September 30, 2015 or for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015.

Note 3. Investments

Fair Value

In accordance with ASC 820, the Company’s investments’ fair value is determined to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, assuming an orderly transaction between willing market participants on the measurement date. This fair value definition focuses on exit price in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs. ASC 820 also establishes the three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of a financial instrument as of the measurement date as described in Note–2 – Significant Accounting Policies.

As of September 30, 2016, $80,190,024 of the Company’s investments were valued using Level 3 inputs, and $49,742,251 were valued using Level 2 inputs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, $22,725,349 and $7,954,014 of investments transferred into and out of Level 3, respectively.

As of December 31, 2015, $27,319,316 of the Company’s investments were valued using Level 3 inputs, and $34,058,836 were valued using Level 2 inputs. During the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015, there were no investments transferred into or out of Levels 1, 2 or 3.

Inputs are weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range.

Fair value measurements can be sensitive to changes in one or more of the valuation inputs. Changes in market yields, discounts rates, leverage, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) or EBITDA multiples (or revenue or revenue multiples), each in isolation, may change the fair value of certain of the Company’s investments. Generally, an increase or decrease in market yields, discount rates or leverage or a decrease in EBITDA or EBITDA multiples (or revenue or revenue multiples) may result in a corresponding decrease or increase, respectively, in the fair value of certain of the Company’s investments.

The following tables provide the changes in fair value, broken out by security type, during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015 for all investments for which the Company’s determine fair value using unobservable (Level 3) factors.

Management Fee

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.0% of the Company’s average gross assets including cash and any temporary investments in cash-equivalents, which include, U.S government securities and other high-quality investment grade debt investments that mature in 12 months or less from the date of investment, payable quarterly in arrears on a calendar quarter basis.

Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive the right to receive the base management fee to the extent necessary so that the base management fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement equals, and is calculated in the same manner as if, the base management fee otherwise payable by the Company were calculated at an annual rate equal to 0.65% (instead of an annual rate of 1.00%).

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded management fees of $327,577 and $856,763, respectively, and waivers to the management fees of $114,652 and $299,867 respectively, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015, the Company recorded management fees of $84,695, and waivers to the management fees of $29,643, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

Incentive Fee

The Incentive Fee has two parts, as follows: one is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses accrued for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense on any credit facilities or outstanding debt and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee).

The Company determines pre-incentive fee net investment income in accordance with GAAP, including, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature, such as OID, debt instruments with PIK interest and OID securities, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, computed net of all realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a hurdle of 1.0% per quarter (4.0% annualized). The Company determines its average gross assets during each fiscal quarter and calculates the base management fee payable with respect to such amount at the end of each fiscal quarter. As a result, a portion of the Company’s net investment income is included in its gross assets for the period between the date on which such income is earned and the date on which such income is distributed. Therefore, the Company’s net investment income used to calculate part of the Incentive Fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s gross assets used to calculate the 1% annual base management fee. The Company pays its Adviser an Incentive Fee with respect to its pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

no amount is paid on the income-portion of the Incentive Fee in any calendar quarter in which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle of 1.0% (4.0% annualized);

100% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.1765 % in any calendar quarter (4.706% annualized). The Company refers to this portion of its pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.1765%) as the “catch-up” provision. The catch-up is meant to provide the Company’s Adviser with 15.0% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if net investment income exceeds 1.1765% in any calendar quarter (4.706% annualized); and

15.0% of the amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.1765% in any calendar quarter (4.706% annualized) is payable to the Company’s Adviser.

Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive its right to receive the Incentive Fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income to the extent necessary so that such Incentive Fee equals, and is calculated in the same manner as, the corresponding Incentive Fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, if such Incentive Fee (i) were calculated based upon the Adviser receiving 10% (instead of 15%) of the applicable pre-incentive fee net investment income and (ii) did not include any “catch-up” feature in favor of the Adviser.

The second part of the Incentive Fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 15% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from June 16, 2015, the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain Incentive Fees with respect to each of the investments in the Company’s portfolio. However, the Incentive Fee determined as of December 31, 2015 was calculated for a period of shorter than 12 calendar months (commencing on the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement through December 31, 2015) to take into account any realized capital gains computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation from the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive the right to receive the Incentive Fee on capital gains to the extent necessary so that such portion of the Incentive Fee equals, and is calculated in the same manner as, the corresponding Incentive Fee on capital gains, if such portion of the Incentive Fee were calculated based upon the Adviser receiving 10% (instead of 15%).

In addition, pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive the right to receive both components of the Incentive Fee to the extent necessary so that it does not receive Incentive Fees which are attributable to income and gains of the Company that exceed an annualized rate of 12% in any calendar quarter.

The waivers from the Adviser will remain effective until terminated earlier by either party on 60 days prior written notice.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded incentive fees of $231,638 and waivers to the incentive fees of $200,218, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations. The Company did not accrue or waive any incentive fee for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015 within the accompanying statements of operations.

Administrative Fee

The Company has also entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with Audax Management Company, LLC (the “Administrator”) under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Company. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or oversees the performance of administrative services necessary for the operation of the Company, which include being responsible for the financial records which the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Administrator assists in determining and publishing the Company’s net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of the Company’s tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Company’s stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. The Company reimburses the Administrator for its allocable portion of the costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator for overhead in performance by the Administrator of its duties under the Administration Agreement, including the cost of facilities, office equipment and the Company’s allocable portion of cost of compensation and related expenses of its Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and their respective staffs, as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator relating to any administrative or operating services provided by the Administrator to the Company. Such costs are reflected as an administrative fee in the accompanying statements of operations.

On November 10, 2016, the Company executed a waiver agreement, which entitled the Administrator to waive, in whole or in part, its entitlement to receive reimbursements from the Company. The amendment was retroactively effective as of July 1, 2016.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded administrative fees of $66,250 and $198,750, respectively, and waivers to the administrative fees of $44,375 for both periods, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations. The Company accrued administrative fees of $68,125 and $75,323 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015, respectively.

Note 6. Income Tax

The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, as well as elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, the Company generally is not subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it timely distributes to its stockholders as dividends. To qualify to be treated as a RIC, the Company is required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements, and to timely distribute dividends out of assets legally available for distributions to its stockholders of an amount generally equal to at least 90% of the sum of its net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any (i.e., “investment company taxable income”), for each taxable year. The amount to be paid out as distributions to the Company’s stockholders is determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and is based on management’s estimate of the fiscal year earnings. Based on that estimate, the Company intends to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes. Although the Company currently intends to distribute its net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term capital losses), if any, recognized in respect of each taxable year as dividends out of the Company’s assets legally available for distribution, the Company in the future may decide to retain for investment and be subject to entity-level income tax on such net capital gains. Additionally, depending on the level of taxable income earned in a taxable year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year distributions into the next taxable year and incur a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year distributions, the Company accrues excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as such excess taxable income is earned.

The Company had aggregate distributions declared and paid to its shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 of $152,734, or $0.012 per share. We estimate that the full amount of the distributions declared and paid during such period will be characterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as ordinary income. The Company had aggregate distributions declared and paid to its shareholders for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015 of $259,976, or $0.04 per share. $126,128 of the distributions declared and paid during such period was characterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as ordinary income, and $133,848 of such distributions was characterized as a return of capital. The distributions were reinvested in shares through the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan.

The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually at the end of the Company’s taxable year, based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full taxable year and distributions paid for the full taxable year. Therefore, a determination made on an interim basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will reported to the Company’s stockholders subject to information reporting after the close of each calendar year on Form 1099-DIV.

At December 31, 2015, the components of accumulated losses on a tax basis below differ from the amounts reflected per the Company’s statements of assets and liabilities by temporary book/tax differences primarily arising from the amortization of organizational expenditures.

	As of December
	31, 2015
Accumulated net investment loss	$	(294,566	)
Accumulated net appreciation on investments		127,290
Accumulated net realized losses		(11,034	)
Components of tax distributable earnings (deficit) at period end	$	(178,310	)

The Company has evaluated tax positions it has taken, expects to take, or that are otherwise relevant to the Company for purposes of determining whether any relevant tax positions would “more-likely-than-not” be sustained by the applicable tax authority in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” as modified by ASC Topic 946. The Company has analyzed such tax positions and has concluded that no unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded for uncertain tax positions for taxable years that may be open. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. The Company records tax positions that are not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold as well as any applicable penalties or interest associated with such positions as tax expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) to September 30, 2015, no tax expenses and any related interest and were incurred.

Note 7. Equity

An investor made a $140,000,000 capital commitment to the Company during the period from January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015. As of September 30, 2016, all of the Company’s capital commitments have been funded.

The number of shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, were 14,680,630 and 10,750,799, respectively.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company may enter into certain credit agreements that include loan commitments where all or a portion of such commitment may be unfunded. The Company is generally obligated to fund the unfunded loan commitments at the borrowers’ discretion. Funded portions of credit agreements are presented on the accompanying schedule of investments. Unfunded loan commitments and funded portions of credit agreements are fair valued and unrealized appreciation or depreciation, if any, have been included in the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and statements of operations.

The following table summarizes our significant contractual payment obligations as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 in unfunded principal:

OVERVIEW

Audax Credit BDC Inc. is a Delaware corporation that was formed on January 29, 2015. We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, we have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We intend to meet our investment objective by investing primarily in senior secured debt of privately owned U.S. middle-market companies. We intend to invest at least 80% of our net assets plus the amount of any borrowings in “credit instruments,” which we define as any fixed income instruments.

Although we have no present intention of doing so, we may decide to incur leverage. If we do incur leverage, we anticipate that it will be used in limited circumstances and on a short-term basis for purposes such as funding distributions. As a BDC, we are limited in our use of leverage under the 1940 Act. Specifically, as a BDC we are only allowed to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. In determining whether to use leverage, we will analyze the maturity, covenants and interest rate structure of the proposed borrowings, as well as the risks of such borrowings within the context of our investment outlook and the impact of leverage on our investment portfolio. The amount of any leverage that we employ as a BDC, if any, will be subject to oversight by our Board of Directors.

We generate revenue in the form of interest on the debt securities that we hold in our portfolio companies. The senior debt we invest in generally has stated terms of three to ten years. Our senior debt investments generally bear interest at a floating rate. Interest on debt securities is generally payable quarterly or semiannually. In some cases, some of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or PIK interest. The principal amount of the debt securities and any accrued but unpaid interest generally will become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment and other fees in connection with transactions, although we do not expect to do so. OID as well as market discount and premium are accreted and amortized in determining our interest income. We record any prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue

The net increase or decrease in net assets from operations may vary substantially from period to period as a result of various factors, including the recognition of realized gains and/or losses and net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation.

Net investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015 , is presented in the table below.

Refer to Note 4 — Related Party Transactions in the notes accompanying our financial statements for more information related to base management fees, incentive fees and waivers.

Since our formation on January 29, 2015, we have incurred expenses related to our formation and registration and offerings of our common stock. We incurred organizational costs of $4,060 and $304,724 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period from January 29, 2015 (date of inception) to September 30, 2015, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we received a rebate from Delaware related to the 2015 Delaware state corporate franchise tax of $145,828, which was included within other expenses within the Statement of Operations.

Unrealized Appreciation on Investments

Net change in unrealized appreciation on investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015, is presented in the table below.

Type	Three Months ended September 30, 2016		Nine Months ended September 30, 2016
First Lien Debt	$	276,009	$	748,859
Second Lien Debt		99,568		129,542
Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments	$	375,577	$	878,401

Net change in unrealized appreciation on investments was primarily due to an increase in performance of our portfolio companies and changes in the capital market conditions.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of any offering of the shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, (each, a “Share”), from cash flows from interest and fees earned from our investments, and from principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. Our primary use of cash is investments in portfolio companies, payments of our expenses and cash distributions to our stockholders. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had cash of $29,915,053 and $43,155,376, respectively.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in the operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $60,087,589. The primary operating activity during this period was investment in portfolio companies. This was partially offset by repayments of bank loans and proceeds from investments sold. Net cash used in operating activities for the period from January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015 was $21,747,142. The primary operating activity during this period was investment in portfolio companies. This was partially offset by an increase in payable for investments purchased.

As of September 30, 2016, we had 8 investments with unfunded commitments of $3,613,277. We believe that, as of September 30, 2016, we had sufficient assets to adequately cover any obligations under our unfunded commitments.

The following table summarizes our total portfolio activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the period from January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016			For the Period January 29, 2015 (Date of Inception) through September 30, 2015

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by our financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $37,847,266 from issuances of 3,929,831 of Shares to our shareholders, in connection with our capital calls during the period. These capital calls were partially offset by a distribution of $152,734, or $0.012 per share. Net cash provided by our financing activities for the period from January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015 was $62,001,000 from issuances of 6,499,394 of shares of common stock to our shareholders, in connection with our capital calls during the period and the initial purchase of shares by Audax Group, L.P.

Equity Activity

The number of shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were 14,680,630 and 10,750,799, respectively.

Distributions to Stockholders – Common Stock Distributions

We have elected to be treated as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, we generally are not subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on ordinary income or capital gains that we timely distribute to our stockholders. To qualify to be taxed as a RIC and thus avoid corporate-level federal income tax on the income that we distribute, we are required to distribute to our stockholders each taxable year generally of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for any dividends paid. To avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings, we are required to distribute to our stockholders in respect of each calendar year of an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of our ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for such calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of our capital gain net income, adjusted for certain ordinary losses, for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year and (iii) any income or capital gains recognized, but not distributed, in preceding calendar years and on which we paid no federal income tax. We intend to make distributions to stockholders on an annual basis of substantially all of our net investment income. Although we intend to make distributions of net capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment. In addition, the extent and timing of special dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors and will largely be driven by portfolio specific events and tax considerations.

We may fund our cash distributions from any sources of funds available, including offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, proceeds from the sale or disposition of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and fee waivers from our Adviser. Our distributions may exceed our earnings, especially during periods before we have substantially invested the proceeds from an offering. As a result, a portion of the distributions we may represent a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus the source of a distribution to our stockholders may be the original capital invested by the stockholder rather than our income or gains. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We declared and paid to our shareholders aggregate distributions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 of $152,734, or $0.012 per share. This distribution was declared and recorded on September 20, 2016 and payable on September 23, 2016. We estimate that the full amount of the distributions declared and paid during such period will be characterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as ordinary income. During the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015, we made one distribution of $259,976, or $0.04 per Share. This distribution was declared, recorded, and payable on December 18, 2015. $126,128 of the distributions declared and paid during such period was characterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as ordinary income and $133,848 of such distributions was characterized as a return of capital.

The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions is made annually at the end of our taxable year, based upon our taxable income for the full taxable year and distributions paid for the full taxable year. Therefore, a determination made on an interim basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will reported to stockholders subject to information reporting after the close of each calendar year on Form 1099-DIV.

Related Party Fees

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded management fees of $327,577 and $856,763, respectively, and waivers to the management fees of $114,652 and $299,867, respectively, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

(a) Expenses paid on behalf of the Company by the Adviser

Tender Offers

We do not currently intend to list the Shares on any securities exchange, and we do not expect a public market for them to develop in the foreseeable future. Therefore, stockholders should not expect to be able to sell their Shares promptly or at a desired price. To provide our stockholders with limited liquidity, we may, in the absolute discretion of our Board of Directors, conduct an annual tender offer. Our tenders for the Shares, if any, would be conducted on such terms as may be determined by our Board of Directors and in accordance with the requirements of applicable law, including Section 23(c) of the 1940 Act and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. We have not commenced any tender offers, and we do not currently intend to conduct any tender offers.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This discussion of our operations is based upon our financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. In addition to the discussion below, we describe our critical accounting policies in the notes to our financial statements.

Valuation of Investments

We conduct the valuation of our investments, pursuant to which our net asset value is determined, at all times consistent with GAAP and the 1940 Act. Our Board of Directors, with the assistance of our Audit Committee, determines the fair value of our investments, for investments with a public market, daily, and for investments with no readily available public market, on at least a quarterly basis, in accordance with the terms of ASC 820. Our valuation procedures are set forth in more detail below.

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement is defined as follows:

Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. We do not adjust the quoted price for these instruments, even in situations where we hold a large position, and a sale could reasonably be expected to impact the quoted price.

Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in markets that are not active, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.

Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments in this category include investments in privately held entities, non-investment grade residual interests in securitizations, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

Pursuant to the framework set forth above, we value securities traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the exchange closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. We also obtain quotes with respect to certain of our investments from pricing services, brokers or dealers’ quotes, or counterparty marks in order to value liquid assets that are not traded in active markets.

Pricing services aggregate, evaluate and report pricing from a variety of sources including observed trades of identical or similar securities, broker or dealer quotes, model-based valuations and internal fundamental analysis and research. When doing so, we determine whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined adequate, we use the quote obtained.

Securities that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of our Board of Directors, does not represent fair value, are each valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available. These valuation techniques vary by investment but include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and discounted cash flow analyses. The process used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by the investment professionals of the Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment using a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs and updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with our senior management and members of our Adviser’s valuation team; (iii) our Audit Committee reviews the assessments of the Adviser and provides our Board of Directors with recommendations with respect to the fair value of the investments in our portfolio; and (iv) our Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of our Audit Committee and determines the fair value of the investments in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Adviser and in accordance with our valuation policy.

Our Audit Committee’s recommendation of fair value is generally based on its assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

the portfolio company’s ability to make payments;

the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

prevailing interest rates for like securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

the markets in which the issuer does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

comparisons to publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available as of the measurement date, which in many cases may reflect up to a one quarter lag in information.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which a pricing source is not sufficient may include the following:

private placements and restricted securities that do not have an active trading market;

securities whose trading has been suspended or for which market quotes are no longer available;

debt securities that have recently gone into default and for which there is no current market;

securities whose prices are stale; and

securities affected by significant events.

Our Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for the determination, in good faith, of the fair value of our portfolio investments.

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our financial statements.

Refer to Note 3 — Investments in the notes to our accompanying financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report for additional information regarding fair value measurements and our application of ASC 820.

Revenue Recognition

We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt securities with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance, we generally will not accrue PIK interest for accounting purposes if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. We do not accrue as a receivable interest on loans and debt securities for accounting purposes if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. OID, market discount and premium are respectively accreted and amortized using the effective interest method in determining our interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation

We measure net realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees and prepayment penalties. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when gains or losses are realized.

PIK Interest

We may have investments in our portfolio that contain a PIK interest provision. Any PIK interest will be added to the principal balance of such investments and is recorded as income if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is collectible. In order to maintain our ability to be subject to tax as a RIC, substantially all of this income must be included in the amounts paid out by us to stockholders in the form of dividends, even if we have not collected any cash.

Organization and Offering Expenses

The Company did not incur any organizational costs for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2016. We incurred organizational costs of $4,060 and $304,724 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period January 29, 2015 (date of inception) through September 30, 2015, respectively. Organization costs included the cost of incorporating, including the cost of legal services and other fees pertaining to the Company’s organization. These costs were expensed on the Company’s statement of operations as incurred. The Company also incurred offering costs of $145,358 in prior periods. The Company’s offering costs included legal fees and other costs pertaining to the preparation of the Company’ Registration Statement and sale of the Company’s shares of common stock. The Company capitalized these expenses and amortized them on a straight-line basis over a twelve-month period. The amortization is included within professional fees and other expenses within the statement of operations and amounted to $0 and $72,679 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. The amortization is included within professional fees and other expenses within the Statement of Operations and amounted to $36,339 for the period January 29, 2015 to September 30, 2015.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally are not subject to corporate-level federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that we distribute as dividends to our stockholders. To qualify and maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, in order to be subject to tax as a RIC, we are required to distribute dividends to our stockholders each taxable year of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a taxable year, we may choose to retain taxable income in excess of current year distributions into the next taxable year in an amount less than what would trigger payments of federal income tax under Subchapter M of the Code. We would then be subject to a 4% excise tax on such undistributed taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income may exceed estimated current year distributions, we accrue excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned. We did not accrue any excise tax for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016.

Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified within capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent differences may also result from differences in classification in certain items, such as the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. Such reclassifications, including as a result of distributions representing a return of capital, have no impact on our net assets. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.

We evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reversed and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current fiscal year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, ongoing analyses of tax law, regulations and interpretations thereof. Our accounting policy on income taxes is critical because if we are unable to maintain our tax status as a RIC, we generally would be required to record a provision for corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes, as well as any related state or local taxes which may be significant to our financial results.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we, or the Adviser, may become party to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings related to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Neither we nor the Adviser is currently subject to any material legal proceedings.

Unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not reflected in our accompanying statements of assets and liabilities. Our unfunded commitments may be significant from time to time. These commitments are subject to the same underwriting and ongoing portfolio maintenance as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that we hold. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We use cash flow from normal and early principal repayments and proceeds from borrowings and offerings to fund these commitments. As of September 30, 2016, we had eight investments with unfunded commitments of $3,613,277. We believe that, as of September 30, 2016, we had sufficient assets to adequately cover any obligations under our unfunded commitments.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. As of September 30, 2016, all of our investments included variable rates or variable rates with a floor.

Assuming that the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2016 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter interest rate sensitivity as of such date, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates.

Change in interest rates	Increase (decrease) in interest income		Increase (decrease) in interest expense		Net increase (decrease) in investment income
Down 300 basis points	$	-	$	-	$	-
Down 200 basis points		-		-		-
Down 100 basis points		-		-		-
Up 100 basis points		688,731		-		688,731
Up 200 basis points		1,993,230		-		1,993,230
Up 300 basis points		3,297,729		-		3,297,729

In addition, any investments we make that are denominated in a foreign currency will be subject to risks associated with changes in currency exchange rates. These risks include the possibility of significant fluctuations in the foreign currency markets, the imposition or modification of foreign exchange controls and potential illiquidity in the secondary market. These risks will vary depending upon the currency or currencies involved.

We may hedge against interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2016 (the end of the period covered by this report), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness and design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level in timely alerting management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of material information about us required to be included in periodic SEC filings. However, in evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II–OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceeding, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.

From time to time, we, our Adviser or Administrator 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. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings, lawsuits and claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Our businesses are also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us.
