Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to Schedule 13D relates to the units of limited liability company interests (the “Units”) of New Mountain Guardian IV BDC, L.L.C. (the “Issuer”), and amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed on September 1, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on December 12, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 2 filed on July 3, 2023, as amended by Amendment No. 3 filed on July 26, 2023, (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). The principal executive office of the Issuer is 1633 Broadway, 48th Floor, New York, New York 10019. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 4 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 4 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
This Amendment No. 4 is being filed to update the aggregate percentage of the Issuer’s Units owned by the Reporting Persons due to dilution caused by the Issuer’s issuance of additional Units from time to time since the date of the filing of Amendment No. 3 and not in connection with a disposition of any Units by the Reporting Persons.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 (a) of this Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:
The information set forth in the cover pages of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.
| (a) | As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own the 3,500,000 Units held by New Mountain Guardian Investments IV, L.L.C., representing approximately 14.9% of the outstanding Units. The beneficial ownership percentage assumes that there are 23,525,081 Units outstanding as of the date hereof based on information provided by the Issuer. |
