​
Beneficial Owners:   Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank.   If on April 22, 2019,2022, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other agent, you should have received a proxy card and voting instructions with these proxy materials from that organization rather than from the Company. Simply complete and mail the proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted. Alternatively, you may be able to vote by telephone or over the internet as instructed by your broker or bank. To vote in personvirtually at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other agent. Follow the instructions from your broker or bank included with these proxy materials, or contact your broker or bank to request a proxy card.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy card?
Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are the stockholder of record of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:
•
You may change your vote using the same method that you first used to vote your shares;
​
•
You may send a written notice that you are revoking your proxy to Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation, 311 South Wacker Drive, Suite 6400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, Attention: Aaron D. Peck,Lewis W. Solimene, Jr., Corporate Secretary; or
​
•
You may attendparticipate in the Annual Meeting and vote in person.virtually. Simply attendingparticipating in the Annual Meeting, however, will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.
​
If your shares are held by your broker or bank as a nominee or agent, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker or bank.
How are votes counted?
Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately count “FOR” and “WITHHOLD AUTHORITY” votes for the proposal to elect.elect each of the director nominees named herein to serve on the Board of Directors. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee, such as a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, holding shares for a beneficial owner, does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that proposal and has not received instructions with respect to that proposal from the beneficial owner. In the event that a broker, bank, custodian, nominee or other record holder of our common stock indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a particular proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes with respect to that proposal. Accordingly, if you own shares through a nominee, such as a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, please be sure to instruct your nominee how to vote to ensure that your vote is counted on each of the proposals.
If your shares are held by your broker as your nominee (that is, in “street name”), you will need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds your shares and follow the instructions included on that form regarding how to instruct your broker to vote your shares. Proposal No. 1 (election of director)directors) is a non-routine proposal. Since the proposal to be voted on at the Annual Meeting is not a routinenon-routine matter, the broker or nominee that holds your shares will need to obtain your authorization to vote those shares and will enclose a voting instruction form with this proxy statement. The broker or nominee will vote your shares as you direct on their voting instruction form so it is important that you include voting instructions.
Abstentions will be treated as shares present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.
How many votes are needed to approve the proposal?
•
Proposal No. 1 (election of director)?
Because each of the director nomineenominees is running unopposed, each of the director nomineenominees is expected to be elected as a director, while votes not cast or voted “WITHHOLD AUTHORITY” will have no effect on the election outcome.
​
How many shares must be present to constitute a quorum for the Annual Meeting?
A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if at least a majorityone-third of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are represented by stockholders present at the Annual Meeting or by proxy. On April 22, 2019,2022, the record date, there were 2,910,60048,314,481 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, 1,455,30116,104,827 shares must be represented by stockholders present at the Annual Meeting or by proxy to have a quorum.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in personvirtually at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will be counted towards the quorum requirement.
If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, or if a quorum is present but there are not enough votes to approve one or more of the proposals, the person named as chairman of the Annual Meeting may adjourn the meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. A stockholder vote may be taken on one or more of the proposals in this proxy statement prior to any such adjournment if there are sufficient votes for approval on such proposal(s).
How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?
Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting and filed on Form 8-K within four business days of the Annual Meeting. Final results, if different from the preliminary voting results, will be published on an amended Form 8-K within four days after the final voting results are established.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?
The Company will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these written proxy materials, directors, officers and employees of Monroe Capital BDC Advisors, LLC (“MC Advisors”), the Company’s investment adviser, or MC Advisors, may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication; however, our directors, officers and employees of MC Advisors will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

The Company may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.
How many copies should I receive if I share an address with another stockholder?
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries, such as brokers, to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially provides extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.
Brokers may be householding our proxy materials by delivering a single proxy statement and Annual Report to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If at any time you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and Annual Report, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy statement and Annual Report and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account or us if you are a stockholder of record. You can notify us by sending a written request to: Aaron D. Peck,Lewis W. Solimene, Jr., Corporate Secretary, Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation, 311 South Wacker Drive, Suite 6400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, or by calling (312) 258-8300.

Solimene, Jr., Corporate Secretary, Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation, 311 South Wacker Drive, Suite 6400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, Telephone: (312) 258-8300, or Fax: (312) 258-8350.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Director Independence
Pursuant to Section 56 of the 1940 Act, a majority of a BDC’s board of directors must be comprised of persons who are not “interested persons” of the Company, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act defines an “interested person” to include, among other things, any person who has, or within the last two years had, a material business or professional relationship with the Company.
The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. EatonMiron, Schoenfeld and SchoenfeldAllison are independent. Mr. Koenig is an “interested person” due to his positions with the Company, MC Advisors and Monroe Capital, as discussed in his biography. Based upon independently verified information obtained from each director and the Class I director nominee concerning their background, employment and affiliations, the Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that none of the independent directors has a material business or professional relationship with the Company, other than in his capacity as a member of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof.
Organization of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors has established an audit committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. During 2018,2021, the Board of Directors held one meeting,five meetings, the audit committee held one meeting,five meetings, and the nominating and corporate governance committee did not hold aheld one meeting. Each of our directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and of the respective committees on which he served that was held during 2018.2021. The Company encourages, but does not require, the directors to attend the Company’s annual meeting of its stockholders. This isAll of our directors who served on the Company’s firstBoard at the time of the 2021 Annual Meeting attended our 2021Annual Meeting.
Board Leadership Structure
The Board of Directors monitors and performs an oversight role with respect to the business and affairs of the Company. Among other things, the Board of Directors approves the appointment of our investment adviser, administrator and officers, reviews and monitors the services and activities performed by our investment adviser, administrator and officers and approves the engagement, and reviews the performance of, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
Under the bylaws, the Board of Directors may designate a chairman to preside over the meetings of the Board of Directors and meetings of the stockholders and to perform such other duties as may be assigned to him by the Board of Directors. The Company does not have a fixed policy as to whether the chairman of the Board of Directors should be an independent director and believes that its flexibility to select its chairman and reorganize its leadership structure from time to time is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
Presently, Mr. Koenig serves as the chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Koenig is an interested director because he is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, serves on MC Advisors’ investment committee and the chief executive officer and manager of MC Advisors. The Company believes that Mr. Koenig’s history with the Company, familiarity with the Monroe Capital investment platform and extensive experience investing in and managing private equity and debt investments qualifies him to serve as chairman of the Board of Directors. Moreover, our Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interests of our stockholders for Mr. Koenig to lead our Board of Directors because of his broad experience with the Monroe Capital platform, day-to-day management and operation of other investment funds and his significant background in the financial services industry, as described above.
Our Board of Directors does not have a lead independent director. However, Mr. Schoenfeld, the chairman of the audit committee, is an independent director and acts as a liaison between the independent directors and management between meetings of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors believes that its leadership structure is appropriate in light of the Company’s characteristics and circumstances because the structure allocates areas of responsibility among the individual directors and the committees in a manner

a manner
that encourages effective oversight. The Board of Directors also believes that its size creates a highly efficient governance structure that provides ample opportunity for direct communication and interaction between MC Advisors and our Board of Directors.
Board Role in Risk Oversight
The Board of Directors performs its risk oversight function primarily through (a) its two standing committees, which report to the entire Board of Directors and are comprised solely of independent directors and (b) monitoring by the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer in accordance with its compliance policies and procedures.
As described below in more detail under “Audit Committee” and “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee,” the audit committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its risk oversight responsibilities. The audit committee’s risk oversight responsibilities include overseeing the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes, the Company’s systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting and audits of the Company’s financial statements and discussing with management the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures, including the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies. The nominating and corporate governance committee’s risk oversight responsibilities include selecting, researching and nominating directors for election by the Company’s stockholders, developing and recommending to the Board of Directors a set of corporate governance principles and overseeing the evaluation of the Board of Directors and its committees. Both the audit committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee consist solely of independent directors.
The Board of Directors also performs its risk oversight responsibilities with the assistance of the Chief Compliance Officer. The Company’s Chief Compliance Officer prepares a written report annually discussing the adequacy and effectiveness of the compliance policies and procedures of the Company and certain of its service providers. The Chief Compliance Officer’s report, which is reviewed by the Board of Directors, addresses at a minimum: (a) the operation of the compliance policies and procedures of the Company and certain of its service providers since the last report; (b) any material changes to such policies and procedures since the last report; (c) any recommendations for material changes to such policies and procedures as a result of the Chief Compliance Officer’s annual review; and (d) any compliance matter that has occurred since the date of the last report about which the Board would reasonably need to know to oversee the Company’s compliance activities and risks. In addition, the Chief Compliance Officer meets separately in executive session with the independent directors periodically, but in no event less than once each year.
The Company believes that the role of the Board of Directors in risk oversight is effective and appropriate given the extensive regulation to which it is subject as a BDC. Specifically, as a BDC, the Company must comply with certain regulatory requirements that control the levels of risk in its business and operations. For example, the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness is limited such that its asset coverage must equal at least 150% immediately after each time it incurs indebtedness and the Company generally has to invest at least 70% of its total assets in “qualifying assets.” In addition, the Company intends to elect to be treated as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. As a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain income source and asset diversification requirements.
The Company believes that the existing role of the Board of Directors in risk oversight is appropriate. However, the Company re-examines the manners in which the Board of Directors administers its oversight function on an ongoing basis to ensure that it continues to meet the Company’s needs.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee is composed of Roger Schoenfeld (chair) and David Eaton,Russel Miron, each of whom is not considered an “interested person” of the Company as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. Our Board of Directors has determined that our Audit Committee chair is an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-K, as promulgated under the 1934 Act. Our Audit Committee members meet the current independence and experience requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the 1934 Act.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
We have entered into an agreement with MC Advisors in which certainAdvisors. Certain of our current directors and officers are directors or officers of MC Advisors. MC Advisors and its direct or indirect members, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates may be subject to certain potential conflicts of interest in connection with our activities and investments. For example, the terms of MC Advisors’ management and incentive fees may create an incentive for MC Advisors to approve and cause us to make more speculative investments than we would otherwise make in the absence of such fee structure. In addition, certain MC Advisors personnel serve, or may serve, as officers, directors, members, or principals of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business as we do, or of investment funds, accounts, or investment vehicles managed by MC Advisors. Similarly, MC Advisors may have other clients with similar, different or competing investment objectives. In serving in these multiple capacities, they may have obligations to other clients or investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which may not be in the best interests of the Company or our stockholders. In addition, prior to an initial public offering and in accordance with its obligations under the 1940 Act, MC Advisors intends to agree to allow certain stockholders the opportunity to participate in certain investment opportunities that we may also participate in.
MC Advisors and its affiliates have procedures and policies in place designed to manage the potential conflicts of interest between its fiduciary obligations to us and its similar fiduciary obligations to other clients. An investment opportunity that is suitable for multiple clients of MC Advisors and its affiliates may not be capable of being shared among some or all of such clients and affiliates due to the limited scale of the opportunity or other factors, including regulatory restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act. There can be no assurance that MC Advisors’ or its affiliates’ efforts to allocate any particular investment opportunity fairly among all clients for whom such opportunity is appropriate will result in an allocation of all or part of such opportunity to us. Not all conflicts of interest can be expected to be resolved in our favor.
The principals of MC Advisors may manage investment vehicles with similar or overlapping investment strategies. In order to address these issues, MC Advisors has put in place an investment allocation policy that addresses the co-investment restrictions set forth under the 1940 Act and seeks to ensure the equitable allocation of investment opportunities when we are able to co-invest with other accounts managed by MC Advisors and affiliated entities. In the absence of using the exemptive relief from the SEC that permits greater flexibility relating to co-investments, MC Advisors will apply the investment allocation policy. When we engage in such permitted co-investments, we will do so in a manner consistent with MC Advisors’ allocation policy. In situations where co-investment with other entities managed by MC Advisors or its affiliates is not permitted or appropriate, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in different securities of the same issuer, MC Advisors will need to decide whether we or such other entity or entities will proceed with the investment. MC Advisors will make these determinations based on its policies and procedures, which generally require that such opportunities be offered to eligible accounts in a manner that will be fair and equitable over time
We expect to co-invest on a concurrent basis with other affiliates of MC Advisors, unless doing so is impermissible with existing regulatory guidance, applicable regulations, the terms of any exemptive relief granted to us and our allocation procedures. On October 15, 2014, MC Advisors and certain other funds and accounts sponsored or managed by MC Advisors and its affiliates, received exemptive relief from the SEC that will permit us greater flexibility to negotiate the terms of co-investments if our Board determines that it would be advantageous for us to co-invest with other accounts sponsored or managed by MC Advisors or its affiliates in a manner consistent with our investment objectives, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. We believe that co-investment by us and accounts sponsored or managed by MC Advisors and its affiliates may afford us additional investment opportunities and the ability to achieve greater diversification. Under the terms of this exemptive relief, a “required majority” (as​(as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors is required to make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed transaction are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our investment strategies and policies. Our Board regularly reviews the allocation policy of Monroe Capital and annually reviews the code of ethics of MC Advisors.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We have entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with MC Advisors and pay MC Advisors a base management fee and incentive fee. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to any future quotation or listing of the Company’s securities on a national securities exchange (an “Exchange Listing”) or any future quotation or listing of its securities on any other public trading market, the base management fee will be calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of average total assets (which includes assets financed using leverage). Following an Exchange Listing, the base management fee will be calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of average invested assets (calculated as total assets excluding cash).
The incentive fee consists of two parts.
The first part will beis calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the preceding quarter. Pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies but excluding fees for providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee), any expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income will include, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature such as market discount, debt instruments with payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest, preferred stock with PIK dividends and zero-coupon securities, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. MC Advisors is not under any obligation to reimburse the Company for any part of the incentive fee it received that was based on accrued interest that the Company never actually receives.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income willdoes not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital gains or losses. If any distributions from portfolio companies are characterized as a return of capital, such returns of capital would affect the capital gains incentive fee to the extent a gain or loss is realized. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where it incurs a loss. For example, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate (as defined below) for a quarter, the Company will pay the applicable incentive fee even if it has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any incentive fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a fixed “hurdle rate” of 1.50% per quarter (6% annually).
The Company will paypays MC Advisors an incentive fee with respect to its pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:
•
no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which the pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.50% (6% annually);
​
•
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 1.76% in any calendar quarter prior to an Exchange Listing or 1.88% in any calendar quarter following an Exchange Listing. The Company refers to this portion of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as the “catch-up” provision. Prior to an Exchange Listing, the catch-up is meant to provide the AdviserMC Advisors with 15% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 1.76% in any calendar quarter, and following an Exchange Listing, the catch-up is meant to provide the AdviserMC Advisors with 20% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 1.88% in any calendar quarter; and
​
•
prior to an Exchange Listing, 15% of the amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.76% in any calendar quarter, and following an Exchange Listing, 20% of the amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.88% in any calendar quarter.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

These calculations will be appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.
The second part of the incentive fee is a capital gains incentive fee that will be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the investment advisory agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 15% of our realized capital gains as of the end of the fiscal year. In determining the capital gains incentive fee payable to MC Advisors, we will calculate the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains and cumulative aggregate realized capital losses since our inception, and the aggregate unrealized capital depreciation as of the date of the calculation, as applicable, with respect to each of the investments in our portfolio. For this purpose, cumulative aggregate realized capital gains, if any, equals the sum of the differences between the net sales price of each investment, when sold, and the amortized cost of such investment. Cumulative aggregate realized capital losses equals the sum of the amounts by which the net sales price of each investment, when sold, is less than the amortized cost of such investment since our inception. Aggregate unrealized capital depreciation equals the sum of the difference, if negative, between the valuation of each investment as of the applicable calculation date and the amortized cost of such investment. At the end of the applicable year, the amount of capital gains that will serve as the basis for our calculation of the capital gains incentive fee equals the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains less cumulative aggregate realized capital losses, less aggregate unrealized capital depreciation, with respect to our portfolio of investments. If this number is positive at the end of such year, then the capital gains incentive fee for such year equals 15% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains incentive fees paid in respect of our portfolio in all prior years.
Additionally, we rely on investment professionals from MC Advisors to assist our Board of Directors with the valuation of our portfolio investments. MC Advisors’ management fee is based on the value of our investments and there may be a conflict of interest when personnel of MC Advisors are involved in the valuation process for our portfolio investments.
We have entered into the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which MC Management furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services at such facilities. Under our administration agreement, MC Management performs, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records whichthat we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC.
As of December 31, 2018,2021, MC Management had incurred organization and offering costs of approximately $350,474$0.4 million on our behalf. MC Management has agreed to absorb and pay on our behalf up to $425,000$0.4 million for organization and offering costs. If the expenses incurred by us are greater than $425,000,$0.4 million, we will reimburse MC Management for organization and offering costs incurred on our behalf in excess of $425,000.$0.4 million.
We have entered into a license agreement with Monroe Capital under which Monroe Capital has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Monroe Capital” for specified purposes in our business. Under this agreement, we have a right to use the “Monroe Capital” name, subject to certain conditions, for so long as MC Advisors or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited license, we have no legal right to the “Monroe Capital” name.
Pursuant to its charter, our audit committee is responsible for reviewing with both management and the Company’s independent accountants, as appropriate, all related party transactions or dealings with parties related to the Company.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the disclosure requirements of Item 405 of SEC Regulation S-K require that our directors and executive officers, and any persons holding more than 10% of any class of our equity securities report their ownership of such equity securities and any subsequent changes in that ownership to the SEC and to us. Based solely on a review of the written statements and copies of such reports furnished to us by our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners, we believe that during fiscal year 2018 all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to the executive officers, directors and stockholders were timely satisfied, with the following inadvertent exceptions: Theodore Koenig, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, Aaron D. Peck, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Corporate Secretary of the Company, and David H.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT(1)1
The following is the report of the Audit Committee with respect to the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.2021.
The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements with management and RSM US LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee included in its review results of RSM US LLP’s audit of the Company’s financial statements.
The Audit Committee also has discussed with RSM US LLP matters relating to RSM US LLP’s judgments about the quality, as well as the acceptability, of the Company’s accounting principles as applied in its financial reporting as required by Auditing Standards No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with RSM US LLP its independence from management and the Company, as well as the matters in the written disclosures received from RSM US LLP and required by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3526 (Communication with Audit Committee Concerning Independence). The Audit Committee received a letter from RSM US LLP confirming its independence and discussed it with them. The Audit Committee discussed and reviewed with RSM US LLP the Company’s critical accounting policies and practices, other material written communications to management, and the scope of RSM US LLP’s audits and all fees paid to RSM US LLP during the fiscal year. The Audit Committee adopted guidelines requiring review and pre-approval by the Audit Committee of audit and non-audit services performed by RSM US LLP for the Company. The Audit Committee has reviewed and considered the compatibility of RSM US LLP’s performance of non-audit services with the maintenance of RSM US LLP’s independence as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
Based on the Audit Committee’s review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors (and the Board of Directors has approved) that the Company’s audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20182021 for filing with the SEC. In addition, the Audit Committee has nominated RSM US LLP for the full Board’s consideration to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.2022.

Audit Fees.   Audit fees include fees for services that normally would be provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements and that generally only the independent accountant can provide, in addition to fees for the audit of our annual financial statements and the review of our quarterly financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Audit Related Fees.   Audit related fees are assurance related services that traditionally are performed by the independent accountant, such as attest services that are not required by statute or regulation. This category contains fees for comfort letters, statutory audits, consents, and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.
Tax Fees.   Tax fees include corporate and subsidiary compliance and consulting.
All Other Fees.   Fees for other services would include fees for products and services other than the services reported above, including any non-audit fees.
Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The Audit Committee has established, and our Board of Directors has approved, a pre-approval policy that describes the permitted audit, audit-related, tax and other services to be provided by RSM US LLP, the Company’s independent registered accounting firm. The policy requires that the Audit Committee pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent registered accounting firm in order to assure that the provision of such services does not impair the firm’s independence.
Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax and other services that have not received general pre-approval must be submitted to the Audit Committee for specific pre-approval, irrespective of the amount, and cannot commence until such approval has been granted. Normally, pre-approval is provided at regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee. However, the Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated shall report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee does not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent registered accounting firm to management.
During 2018,2021, 100% of our audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and fees for other services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm were pre-approved by our Audit Committee.

Audit Committee Charter​
MONROE CAPITAL INCOME PLUS CORPORATION
AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER
I.   Purpose
The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors of Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation (the “Company”) to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities for the Company’s accounting and reporting processes and the audits of its financial statements by, pursuant to authority delegated to it by the Board of Directors, monitoring (i) the quality and integrity of the financial statements of the Company and the independent audit thereof, (ii) the independent auditor’s performance, qualifications and independence, (iii) if applicable, the performance of the Company’s internal audit function and its system of internal controls regarding finance, accounting and regulatory compliance, and (iv) the compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements.
The Audit Committee shall prepare the report required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement.
II.   Committee Membership
The Audit Committee of the Company shall at all times be composed solely of Independent Directors. For purposes of this Audit Committee Charter, “Independent Directors” are Directors of the Company who (i) are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of the Company, (ii) are “independent directors” as defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq listing rules and (iii) meet the independence requirements of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the requirements that such persons not accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensation from the Company or any subsidiary thereof  (other than Directors’ fees received in his or her capacity as a member of the Audit Committee, Board of Directors or another committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or such subsidiary) and that such persons cannot have participated in the preparation of the financial statements of the Company in the previous three years. The Board of Directors shall designate the members of the Audit Committee annually. The Board of Directors shall have the power at any time to change the membership of the Audit Committee, to fill all vacancies and to designate alternate members to replace any absent or disqualified members, so long as the Audit Committee shall at all times be composed solely of Independent Directors. The members of the Audit Committee shall select the Chairman of the Audit Committee.
As a matter of best practice, the Audit Committee will endeavor to have at least one of its members with the requisite qualifications to be designated by the Board of Directors as an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder from time to time (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). To that end, the Audit Committee shall consider at least annually whether one or more of its members qualifies to be designated by the Board of Directors as an “audit committee financial expert.” The Audit Committee shall report the results of its deliberations to the Board of Directors for further action as appropriate, including a determination by the Board of Directors that the Audit Committee membership includes or does not include one or more “audit committee financial expert(s)” and any related disclosure to be made concerning this matter. If a vacancy on the Audit Committee exists due to the retirement or resignation of a member of the Audit Committee who has been designated as an “audit committee financial expert,” the Board of Directors will endeavor to fill such vacancy with another “audit committee financial expert,” as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The designation of a member of the Audit Committee as an “audit committee financial expert” does not increase the duties, obligations or liability of the designee as compared to the duties, obligations and liability otherwise imposed on the designee as a member of the Audit Committee and of the Board of Directors.

Ethics are important to Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation (the “Corporation,” “our,” “us” or “we”) and to its management. The Corporation is committed to the highest ethical standards and to conducting its business with the highest level of integrity.
All officers, directors, and employees of the Corporation and all officers, directors and employees of Monroe Capital BDC Advisors LLC, as the Corporation’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”), when acting on behalf of the Corporation or the Adviser in its capacity as the Corporation’s investment adviser (such individuals collectively referred to as the “Covered Persons,” and individually, “you”), are responsible for maintaining this level of integrity and for complying with the policies contained in this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”). If you have a question or concern about what is proper conduct for you or anyone else, please raise these concerns with any member of the Corporation’s management, or follow the procedures outlined in applicable sections of this Code.
II.   PURPOSE OF THE CODE
This Code is intended to:
•
help you recognize ethical issues and take the appropriate steps to resolve these issues;
​
•
deter ethical violations;
​
•
assist you in reporting any unethical or illegal conduct; and
​
•
reaffirm and promote our commitment to a corporate culture that values honesty and accountability.
​
All Covered Persons will acknowledge in writing that they have received a copy of this Code, read it, and understand that the Code contains our expectations regarding their conduct.
III.   CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
You must avoid any conflict, or the appearance of a conflict, between your personal interests and our interests. A conflict exists when your personal interests in any way interfere — or even appear to interfere — with our interests, or when you take any action or have any interests that may make it difficult for you to perform your job objectively and effectively. For example, a conflict of interest probably exists if:
•
you cause us or the Adviser to enter into business relationships with you or a member of your family, or invest in companies affiliated with you or a member of your family;
​
•
you, or a member of your family, receive improper personal benefits as a result of your position with us or the Adviser;
​
•
you use any nonpublic information about us or the Adviser, our customers or our other business partners for your personal gain, or the gain of a member of your family; or
​
•
you use or communicate confidential information obtained in the course of your work for your or another’s personal benefit.

use our or the Adviser’s property, information, or position for your personal gain or the gain of a family member; or
​
•
compete, or prepare to compete, with us or the Adviser.
​
V.   CONFIDENTIALITY
You must not disclose confidential information regarding us, the Adviser, our affiliates, our lenders, our clients or our other business partners, unless disclosure is authorized or required by law. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be harmful to, or useful to the competitors of, the Corporation, its affiliates, its lenders, its clients or its other business partners. This obligation continues even after you leave the Corporation, until the information becomes publicly available.
VI.   FAIR DEALING
You must endeavor to deal fairly with our customers, suppliers and business partners, or any other companies or individuals with whom we do business or come into contact with, including fellow employees and our competitors. You must not take unfair advantage of these or other parties by means of:

abuse of privileged information;
​
•
misrepresentation of material facts; or
​

any other unfair-dealing practice.

VII.   PROTECTION AND PROPER USE OF CORPORATION ASSETS
Our assets are to be used only for legitimate business purposes. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on our profitability. You should protect our assets and ensure they are used efficiently.
Incidental personal use of telephones, fax machines, copy machines, personal computers and similar equipment is generally allowed if there is no significant added cost to us, if it does not interfere with your work duties and if such use is not related to an illegal activity or to any outside business.
VIII.   COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS
All Covered Persons have a duty to comply with all laws, rules and regulations that apply to our business, including those relating to insider trading. Please talk to our Chief Compliance Officer if you have any questions about how to comply with the above regulations and other laws, rules and regulations.
In addition, we expect you to comply with all of our policies and procedures that apply to you. We may modify or update our policies and procedures in the future, and may adopt new company policies and procedures from time to time.

IX.   EQUAL OPPORTUNITY, HARASSMENT

citizenship status, marital status or any other status protected by law. With this in mind, there are certain behaviors that will not be tolerated. These include harassment, violence, intimidation, and discrimination of any kind involving race, color, sex or gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, national origin, handicap, disability, citizenship status, marital status or any other status protected by law.
X.   ACCURACY OF CORPORATION RECORDS
We require honest and accurate recording and reporting of information in order to make responsible business decisions. This includes data such as quality, safety and personnel records, as well as financial records.
All financial books, records and accounts must accurately reflect transactions and events, and conform both to required accounting principles and to our system of internal controls.
XI.   RETAINING BUSINESS COMMUNICATIONS
The law requires us to maintain certain types of corporate records, usually for specified periods of time. Failure to retain those records for those minimum periods could subject us to penalties and fines, cause the loss of rights, obstruct justice, place us in contempt of court or seriously disadvantage us in litigation.
From time to time, we establish retention or destruction policies to ensure legal compliance. We expect you to fully comply with any published records retention or destruction policies, provided that you should note the following exception: If you believe, or we inform you, that our records are relevant to any litigation or governmental action, or any potential litigation or action, then you must preserve those records until we determine the records are no longer needed. This exception supersedes any previously or subsequently established destruction policies for those records. If you believe this exception may apply, or have any questions regarding the possible applicability of this exception, please contact our Chief Compliance Officer.
XII.   POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS
No funds of the Corporation may be given directly to political candidates. You may, however, engage in political activity with your own resources on your own time, subject, however, to any restrictions or reporting requirements contained in the Adviser’s policies.
XIII.   MEDIA RELATIONS
We must speak with a unified voice in all dealings with the press and other media. As a result, our Chief Executive Officer or our Investor Relations personnel are the only contact for media seeking information about the Corporation. Any requests from the media must be referred to our Chief Executive Officer or our Investor Relations personnel.
XIV.   INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFORMATION
Information generated in our business is a valuable asset. Protecting this information plays an important role in our growth and ability to compete. Such information includes business and research plans; objectives and strategies; trade secrets; unpublished financial information; salary and benefits data; lender and other business partner lists. Employees who have access to our intellectual property information are obligated to safeguard it from unauthorized access and are prohibited from:
•
disclosing this information to persons outside of the Corporation;

XVI.   REPORTING VIOLATIONS AND COMPLAINT HANDLING
You are responsible for compliance with the rules, standards and principles described in this Code. In addition, you should be alert to possible violations of the Code by the Corporation’s or the Adviser’s employees, officers and directors, and you are expected to report a violation promptly. Normally, reports should be made to one’s immediate supervisor. Under some circumstances, it may be impractical or you may feel uncomfortable raising a matter with your supervisor. In those instances, you are encouraged to contact our Chief Compliance Officer who will investigate and report the matter to our Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors, as the circumstance dictates. You will also be expected to cooperate in an investigation of a violation.
Anyone who has a concern about the Corporation’s or the Adviser’s conduct, the conduct of an officer of the Corporation or the Adviser or our accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, may communicate that concern to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors by direct communication with our Chief Compliance Officer or by email or in writing. All reported concerns shall be forwarded to the Audit Committee and will be simultaneously addressed by our Chief Compliance Officer in the same way that other concerns are addressed by us. The status of all outstanding concerns forwarded to the Audit Committee will be reported on a quarterly basis by our Chief Compliance Officer. The Audit Committee may direct that certain matters be presented to the full Board of Directors and may also direct special treatment, including the retention of outside advisers or counsel, for any concern reported to it.
All reports will be investigated and, whenever possible, requests for confidentiality shall be honored. While anonymous reports will be accepted, please understand that anonymity may hinder or impede the investigation of a report. All cases of questionable activity or improper actions will be reviewed for appropriate action, discipline or corrective actions. Whenever possible, we will keep confidential the identity of employees, officers or directors who are accused of violations, unless or until it has been determined that a violation has occurred.
There will be no reprisal, retaliation, or adverse action taken against any employee who, in good faith, reports or assists in the investigation of a violation or suspected violation, or who makes an inquiry about the appropriateness of an anticipated or actual course of action.
For reporting concerns about the Corporation’s or the Adviser’s conduct, the conduct of an officer of the Corporation or the Adviser, or about the Corporation’s or the Adviser’s accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, you may use the following means of communication:
