OVERVIEW

We are a specialty finance company focused on lending to middle-market companies. We are a closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). In addition, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC"), and we expect to qualify annually for tax treatment as a RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2019. From our commencement of investment operations on April 11, 2019 through June 30, 2025, we have originated approximately $4.45 billion in aggregate principal amount of debt and equity investments prior to any subsequent exits and repayments. We seek to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through direct originations of secured debt, including first lien, unitranche debt, including last-out portions of such loans, and second lien debt, and unsecured debt, including mezzanine debt, as well as through select equity investments.

"Unitranche" loans are first lien loans that extend deeper in a borrower's capital structure than traditional first lien debt and may provide for a waterfall of cash flow priority between different lenders in such loan. In a number of instances, we may find another lender to provide the "first-out" portion of a unitranche loan while we retain the "last-out" portion of such loan, in which case, the "first-out" portion of the loan would generally receive priority with respect to the payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder as compared to the "last-out" portion that we would continue to hold. In exchange for taking greater risk of loss, the "last-out" portion generally earns a higher interest rate than the "first-out" portion of the loan. We use the term "mezzanine" to refer to debt that ranks senior in right of payment only to a borrower's equity securities and ranks junior in right of payment to all of such borrower's other indebtedness. We may make multiple investments in the same portfolio company.

We expect to invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of our net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes), directly or indirectly in private middle-market credit obligations and related instruments. We define "credit obligations and related instruments" for this purpose as any fixed-income instrument, including loans to, and bonds and preferred stock of, portfolio companies and other instruments that provide exposure to such fixed-income instruments. "Middle market" is used to refer to companies with between $5 million and $200 million of annual earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") excluding certain one-time and non-recurring items that are outside the operations of these companies. While, as a result of fluctuations in the net asset value ("NAV") of one asset relative to other assets, private middle-market credit obligations and related instruments may represent less than 80% of our net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) at any time, we may not invest, under normal circumstances, more than 20% of our net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities and other instruments that are not private middle-market credit obligations and related instruments. To the extent we determine to invest indirectly in private middle-market credit obligations and related instruments, we may invest through certain synthetic instruments, including derivatives that have similar economic characteristics to private middle-market credit obligations. For purposes of determining compliance with our 80% policy, each applicable derivative instrument will be valued based upon its market value. We will notify our unitholders (the "Unitholders") at least 60 days prior to any change to the 80% investment policy described above.

We may also originate "covenant-lite" loans, which are loans with fewer financial maintenance covenants than other obligations, or no financial maintenance covenants. Such covenant-lite loans may not include terms that allow the lender to monitor the performance of the borrower or to declare a default if certain criteria are breached. These flexible covenants (or the absence of covenants) could permit borrowers to experience a significant downturn in their results of operations without triggering any default that would permit holders of their debt (such as us) to accelerate indebtedness or negotiate terms and pricing. In the event of default, covenant-lite loans may recover less value than traditional loans as the lender may not have an opportunity to negotiate with the borrower prior to such default.

We expect to directly or indirectly invest at least 70% of our total assets in middle-market companies domiciled in the United States. However, we may from time to time invest opportunistically in large U.S. companies, non-U.S. companies, stressed or distressed debt, structured products, private equity or other opportunities, subject to limits imposed by the Investment Company Act.

While our investment program is expected to focus primarily on debt investments, our investments may include equity features, such as a direct investment in the equity or convertible securities of a portfolio company or warrants or options to buy a minority interest in a portfolio company. Any warrants we may receive with debt securities will generally require only a nominal cost to exercise, so as a portfolio company appreciates in value, we may achieve additional investment return from these equity investments. We may structure the warrants to provide provisions protecting our rights as a minority-interest holder, as well as puts, or rights to sell such securities back to the portfolio company, upon the occurrence of specified events. In many cases, we may also obtain registration rights in connection with these equity investments, which may include demand and "piggyback" registration rights.

For a discussion of the competitive landscape we face, please see "Item 1A. Risk Factors-Risks Relating to Competition-We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities" and "Item 1. Business-Competitive Advantages" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

KEY COMPONENTS OF OPERATIONS

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment, the amount of capital we have available to us and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.

As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than "qualifying assets" specified in the Investment Company Act, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in "eligible portfolio companies." Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), "eligible portfolio companies" include certain companies that do not have any securities listed on a national securities exchange and public companies whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange but whose market capitalization is less than $250 million.

Revenues

We generate revenues in the form of interest income on debt investments and, to a lesser extent, capital gains and distributions, if any, on equity securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. Some of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or payment-in-kind ("PIK") income. The principal amount of the debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest generally becomes due at the maturity date.

We generate revenues primarily through receipt of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring, syndication, exit fees or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. Portfolio company fees (directors' fees, consulting fees, administrative fees, tax advisory fees and other similar compensation) will be paid to us, unless, to the extent required by applicable law or exemptive relief, if any, therefrom, we receive our allocable portion of such fees when invested in the same portfolio company as other client accounts managed by our Investment Adviser (collectively with us, the "Accounts"), which other Accounts could receive their allocable portion of such fee. We do not expect to receive material fee income as it is not our principal investment strategy. We record contractual prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Interest and dividend income are presented net of withholding tax, if any.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of the management fee (the "Management Fee") and the incentive fee (the "Incentive Fee") to our Investment Adviser, legal and professional fees, interest and other debt expenses and other operating and overhead related expenses. The Management Fee and Incentive Fee compensate our Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with the Investment Adviser (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"), Company expenses borne by us in the ordinary course on an annual basis (excluding Management Fees, Incentive Fees, organizational and start-up expenses and leverage-related expenses) will not exceed an amount equal to 0.5% of the aggregate amount of commitments to us by holders of common units of our limited liability company interests ("Units"); provided, however, that expenses incurred outside of the ordinary course, including litigation and similar expenses, are not subject to such cap. We bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions in accordance with our Investment Advisory Agreement and administration agreement (the "Administration Agreement"), including:

• our operational and organizational expenses;

• fees and expenses, including travel expenses, incurred by our Investment Adviser or payable to third parties related to our investments, including, among others, professional fees (including the fees and expenses of consultants and experts) and fees and expenses from evaluating, monitoring, researching and performing due diligence on investments and prospective investments;

• interest, fees and other expenses payable on indebtedness for borrowed money (including through the issuance of notes and other evidence of indebtedness), other indebtedness, financings or extensions of credit, if any, incurred by us;

• fees and expenses incurred by us in connection with membership in investment company organizations;

• brokers' commissions;

• fees and expenses associated with calculating our NAV (including the costs and expenses of any independent valuation firm);

• legal, auditing or accounting expenses;

• taxes or governmental fees;

• the fees and expenses of our administrator, transfer agent, or sub-transfer agent;

• the cost of preparing unit certificates or any other expenses, including clerical expenses of issue or repurchase of our Units;

• the expenses of and fees for registering or qualifying our Units for sale and of maintaining our registration or qualifying and registering us as a broker or a dealer;

• the fees and expenses of our directors who are not affiliated with our Investment Adviser;

• the cost of preparing and distributing reports, proxy statements and notices to our Unitholders, the SEC and other regulatory authorities;

• costs of holding Unitholder meetings;

• the fees or disbursements of custodians of our assets, including expenses incurred in the performance of any obligations enumerated by limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents insofar as they govern agreements with any such custodian;

• insurance premiums; and

• costs incurred in connection with any claim, litigation, arbitration, mediation, government investigation or dispute in connection with our business and the amount of any judgment or settlement paid in connection therewith, or the enforcement of our rights against any person and indemnification or contribution expenses payable by us to any person and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of our business.

Our Investment Adviser will not be required to pay expenses of activities which are primarily intended to result in sales of Units.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.

Leverage

The revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "JPM Revolving Credit Facility"), allows us to borrow money and lever our investment portfolio, subject to the limitations of the Investment Company Act, with the objective of increasing our yield. This is known as "leverage" and could increase or decrease returns to our Unitholders. The use of leverage involves significant risks. As a BDC, with certain limited exceptions, we are only permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, equals at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met). The revolving credit facility between us and MUFG Bank Ltd. (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "MUFG Revolving Credit Facility") matured on May 3, 2024 and was terminated in accordance with its terms. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our asset coverage ratio based on the aggregate amount outstanding of our senior securities (which includes the JPM Revolving Credit Facility and the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility (together, the "Revolving Credit Facilities"), as applicable) was 243% and 210%. Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered borrowings for these purposes. Practices and investments that may involve leverage but are not considered borrowings are not subject to the Investment Company Act's asset coverage requirement. The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on the assessment by our Investment Adviser and our Board of Directors of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing.

(1)
The weighted average yield of our portfolio does not represent the total return to our Unitholders.
(2)
Computed based on (a) the annual actual interest rate or yield earned plus amortization of fees and discounts on the performing debt and other income producing investments as of the reporting date, divided by (b) the total investments (including investments on non-accrual status and non-income producing investments) at amortized cost or fair value.
(3)
The calculation includes incremental yield earned on the "last-out" portion of the unitranche loan investments.
(4)
Computed based on (a) the stated coupon rate, if any, for each income-producing investment, divided by (b) the total investments (including investments on non-accrual and non-income producing investments) at amortized cost or fair value.

Within First Lien/Last-Out Unitranche, the decrease in weighted average yield at amortized cost and fair value was driven by the Streamland Media Midco LLC Last-Out Term Loan being placed on non-accrual status. Within Unsecured Debt, the decrease in weighted average yield at amortized cost and fair value was primarily driven by the exit of CivicPlus LLC.

For a particular portfolio company, we calculate the level of contractual indebtedness net of cash ("net debt") owed by the portfolio company and compare that amount to measures of cash flow available to service the net debt. To calculate net debt, we include debt that is both senior and pari passu to the tranche of debt owned by us but exclude debt that is legally and contractually subordinated in ranking to the debt owned by us. We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of our portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual rights of repayment of the tranche of debt owned by us relative to other senior and junior creditors of a portfolio company. We typically calculate cash flow available for debt service at a portfolio company by taking EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month period. Weighted average net debt to EBITDA is weighted based on the fair value of our debt investments, excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

For a particular portfolio company, we also calculate the level of contractual interest expense owed by the portfolio company and compare that amount to EBITDA ("interest coverage ratio"). We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of our portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual interest obligations of the portfolio company. Weighted average interest coverage is weighted based on the fair value of our performing debt investments, excluding investments where interest coverage may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

Median EBITDA is based on our debt investments, excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

Portfolio company statistics are derived from the most recently available financial statements of each portfolio company as of the reported end date. Statistics of the portfolio companies have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk represented 17.3% and 19.6% of total debt investments at fair value.

Our Investment Adviser monitors, on an ongoing basis, the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if it is meeting its respective business plan and to assess the appropriate course of action for each portfolio company. Our Investment Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following: (i) assessment of success in adhering to the portfolio company's business plan and compliance with covenants; (ii) periodic or regular contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments; (iii) comparisons to our other portfolio companies in the industry, if any; (iv) attendance at and participation in Board meetings or presentations by portfolio companies; and (v) review of monthly and quarterly financial statements and financial projections of portfolio companies.

As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Adviser also employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Investment Adviser grades the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 4 no less frequently than quarterly. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account in certain circumstances the performance of the portfolio company's business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The grading system for our investments is as follows:

• Grade 1investments involve the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The trends and risk factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally favorable, which may include the performance of the portfolio company or a potential exit;

• Grade 2investments involve a level of risk to our initial cost basis that is similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. This portfolio company is generally performing as expected and the risk factors to our ability to ultimately recoup the cost of our investment are neutral to favorable. All investments or acquired investments in new portfolio companies are initially assessed a grade of 2;

• Grade 3investments indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has increased materially since origination or acquisition, including as a result of factors such as declining performance and non-compliance with debt covenants; however, payments are generally not more than 120 days past due; and

• Grade 4investments indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has substantially increased since origination or acquisition, and the portfolio company likely has materially declining performance. For debt investments with an investment grade of 4, in most cases, most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. For investments graded 4, it is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis upon exit.

Our Investment Adviser grades the investments in our portfolio at least each quarter and it is possible that the grade of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments with a grade of 3 or 4, our Investment Adviser enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company. The following table shows the composition of our portfolio (excluding investments in money market funds, if any) on the 1 to 4 grading scale:

Investments are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal, interest or dividends will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Accrued interest or dividends generally are reversed when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest or dividend payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. We may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest or dividends are paid and, in management's judgment, principal and interest or dividend payments are likely to remain current.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net realized losses were primarily driven by the restructuring of our first lien debt investment in Streamland Media Midco LLC in March 2025, which resulted in a realized loss of $8.88 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net realized losses were primarily driven by our investments in two portfolio companies. In June 2024, the restructuring of our first lien debt investments in Thrasio, LLC, resulted in a realized loss of $(24.56) million. Additionally, in March 2024, the restructuring of our first lien debt investments in Sweep Purchaser, LLC resulted in a realized loss of $(15.74) million.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The primary use of existing funds and any funds raised in the future is expected to be for our investments in portfolio companies, cash distributions to our Unitholders or for other general corporate purposes, including paying for operating expenses or debt service to the extent we borrow or issue senior securities.

We expect to generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of any future offerings of securities, drawdowns of capital commitments, future borrowings and cash flows from operations. To the extent we determine that additional capital would allow us to take advantage of additional investment opportunities, if the market for debt financing presents attractively priced debt financing opportunities, or if our Board of Directors otherwise determines that leveraging our portfolio would be in our best interest and the best interests of our Unitholders, we may enter into credit facilities, in addition to our JPM Revolving Credit Facility, or issue other senior securities. We would expect that any such credit facilities may be secured by certain of our assets and may contain advance rates based upon pledged collateral. The pricing and other terms of any such facilities would depend upon market conditions when we enter into any such facilities as well as the performance of our business, among other factors. As a BDC, with certain limited exceptions, we are only permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met). See "-Key Components of Operations-Leverage." As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our asset coverage ratio based on the aggregate amount outstanding of our senior securities (which includes the JPM Revolving Credit Facility) was 243% and 210%. We may also refinance or repay any of our indebtedness at any time based on our financial condition and market conditions.

We may enter into investment commitments through signed commitment letters, that may ultimately become investment transactions in the future. We regularly evaluate and carefully consider our unfunded commitments using GSAM's proprietary risk management framework for the purpose of planning our capital resources and ongoing liquidity, including our financial leverage.

We began accepting subscription agreements ("Subscription Agreements") from investors acquiring Units in our private offering. Under the terms of the Subscription Agreements, investors are required to make capital contributions up to the amount of their undrawn capital commitment to purchase Units each time we deliver a drawdown notice. As of the dates indicated, we had aggregate capital commitments and undrawn capital commitments from investors as follows:

Contractual Obligations

We have entered into certain contracts under which we have future commitments. Payments under the Investment Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which GSAM has agreed to serve as our Investment Adviser, are equal to (1) a percentage of our average NAV and (2) an Incentive Fee based on investment performance. Under the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Administrator") has agreed to furnish us with the administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations, we pay our Administrator such fees as may be agreed between us and our Administrator that we determine are commercially reasonable in our sole discretion. Generally, either party may terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement without penalty on at least 60 days' written notice to the other party. Either party may terminate the Administration Agreement without penalty upon at least 30 days' written notice to the other party. The following table shows our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2025:

As of June 30, 2025, we had outstanding borrowings denominated in USD of $774.50 million and in Great British Pounds ("GBP") of GBP 4.00 million.

MUFG Revolving Credit Facility

We entered into the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility on May 7, 2019 with MUFG Bank Ltd., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent"), lead arranger, letter of credit issuer and a lender, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto. We amended the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility on numerous occasions between July 31, 2019 and May 4, 2023. The MUFG Revolving Credit Facility matured on May 3, 2024 and was terminated in accordance with its terms.

Subject to availability under the "Borrowing Base," the maximum principal amount of the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility was $50.05 million until May 3, 2024. The Borrowing Base was calculated based on the unfunded capital commitments of the investors meeting various eligibility requirements (subject to investor concentration limits) multiplied by specified advance rates. The stated maturity date of the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility was May 3, 2024, following our exercise of its maturity extension on October 5, 2023.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility.

Under the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility, we had the ability to elect, for loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, either Term SOFR with a one-, three- or, if available, six-month tenor or the alternative base rate at the time of draw-down (and with respect to loans denominated in non-U.S. Dollar currencies, the applicable benchmark specified in the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility), and loans denominated in U.S. Dollars may have been converted from one rate to another at any time, subject to certain conditions. The interest rate on obligations under the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility was (A) Term SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment for the applicable tenor (or other listed offered rate, depending upon the currency of borrowing) plus 2.75% per annum or (B) an alternative base rate (the greatest of the prime rate set by MUFG Bank, Ltd., the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and Term SOFR with a one-month tenor plus 1.00% ("ABR")) plus 1.75% per annum. We paid a 0.35% annualized fee on a quarterly basis on committed but undrawn amounts under the MUFG Revolving Credit Facility.

For further details, see Note 6 "Debt - MUFG Revolving Credit Facility" to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

JPM Revolving Credit Facility

On September 24, 2020, Goldman Sachs Private Middle Market Credit II SPV II LLC ("SPV") entered into the JPM Revolving Credit Facility. JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association ("JPM") serves as administrative agent, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association serves as collateral agent and collateral administrator, U.S. Bank National Association serves as securities intermediary and we serve as portfolio manager under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility. We amended the JPM Revolving Credit Facility on numerous occasions between February 12, 2021 and November 22, 2024.

Borrowings under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility bear interest (at SPV's election) at a per annum rate equal to (x) Term SOFR (or the applicable benchmark for loans denominated in non-U.S. Dollar currencies) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.15% (or other listed offered rate, depending upon the currency of borrowing) in effect and, (y) to the extent Term SOFR is unavailable, a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate of JPM in effect on such day and (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 0.50%, in each case, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin is 2.05% per annum. SPV will also pay a commitment fee of 0.55% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the financing commitments until the last day of the reinvestment period (as defined in the JPM Revolving Credit Facility), and an administrative fee of 0.20% per annum on the average daily commitment until the maturity date. The JPM Revolving Credit Facility is a multicurrency facility. As of June 30, 2025, the total commitments under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility were $1,250.00 million. The JPM Revolving Credit Facility also has an accordion feature, subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, which could bring total commitments under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility to $2,000.00 million. All amounts outstanding under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility must be repaid by September 24, 2026, the stated scheduled termination date of the JPM Revolving Credit Facility, subject to a six-month extension of the maturity date with the consent of the administrative agent at that time.

SPV's obligations to the lenders under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in all of SPV's portfolio of investments and cash. The obligations of SPV under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility are non-recourse to us, and our exposure under the JPM Revolving Credit Facility is limited to the value of our investment in SPV.

For further details, see Note 6 "Debt - JPM Revolving Credit Facility" to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We may become a party to investment commitments and to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to fund investments and to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. As of June 30, 2025, we believed that we had adequate financial resources to satisfy our unfunded commitments. Our unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies were as follows:

HEDGING

Subject to applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act and applicable Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") regulations, we may enter into hedging transactions in a manner consistent with SEC guidance. To the extent that any of our loans are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, we may enter into currency hedging contracts to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. We may also enter into interest rate hedging agreements. Such hedging activities, which will be subject to compliance with applicable legal requirements, may include the use of futures, options, swaps and forward contracts. Costs incurred in entering into such contracts or in settling them, if any, will be borne by us. Our Investment Adviser has claimed relief from CFTC registration and regulation as a commodity pool operator pursuant to CFTC Rule 4.5 with respect to our operations, with the result that we will be limited in our ability to use futures contracts or options on futures contracts or engage in swap transactions. Specifically, CFTC Rule 4.5 imposes strict limitations on using such derivatives other than for hedging purposes, whereby the use of derivatives not used solely for hedging purposes is generally limited to situations where (i) the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish such positions does not exceed five percent of the liquidation value of our portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such contracts it has entered into; or (ii) the aggregate net notional value of such derivatives does not exceed 100% of the liquidation value of our portfolio. Moreover, we anticipate entering into transactions involving such derivatives to a very limited extent solely for hedging purposes or otherwise within the limitations of CFTC Rule 4.5.

Rule 18f-4 under the Investment Company Act includes limitations on the ability of a BDC (or a RIC) to use derivatives and other transactions that create future payment or delivery obligations (including reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions). Under the rule, BDCs that make significant use of derivatives are subject to a value-at-risk leverage limit, a derivatives risk management program, testing requirements and requirements related to board reporting. These requirements apply unless the BDC qualifies as a "limited derivatives user," as defined in Rule 18f-4. Under the rule, a BDC may enter into an unfunded commitment agreement that is not a derivatives transaction, such as an agreement to provide financing to a portfolio company, if the BDC has, among other things, a reasonable belief, at the time it enters into such an agreement, that it will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet its obligations with respect to all of its unfunded commitment agreements, in each case as it becomes due. Under Rule 18f-4, when we trade reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions, including certain tender option bonds, we need to aggregate the amount of any other senior securities representing indebtedness (e.g., bank borrowings, if applicable) when calculating our asset coverage ratio. We currently operate as a "limited derivatives user" and these requirements may limit our ability to use derivatives and/or enter into certain other financial contracts.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires 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 materially.

For a description of our critical accounting policies, see Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies" to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. We consider the most significant accounting policies to be those related to our Investments, Revenue Recognition, Non-Accrual Investments, Distributions, and Income Taxes. We consider the most significant critical estimate to be the fair value measurement of investments. The critical accounting policies and estimates should be read in connection with our risk factors listed under "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Fair Value Measurement of Investments

Consistent with GAAP and the Investment Company Act, we conduct a valuation of our investments, pursuant to which our NAV is determined. Our investments are valued on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required under the Investment Company Act. The determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. The majority of investments are not quoted or traded in an active market and as such their fair values are determined using valuation techniques, primarily discounted cash flows, market multiples, and recent comparable transactions. The most significant inputs in applying the discounted cash flow approach and the market multiples approach are the selected discount rates and multiples, respectively. The selection of these inputs is based on a combination of factors that are specific to the underlying portfolio companies such as financial performance and certain factors that are observable in the market such as current interest rates and comparable public company trading multiples. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of these valuations and any change in these valuations on the consolidated financial statements. For further details of our investments and fair value measurement accounting policy, see Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies-Investments" and Note 5 "Fair Value Measurement."
