(a) | “Senior Loans” are senior, secured loans made to companies whose debt is below investment grade as well as investments with similar economic characteristics. Senior Loans typically hold a first lien priority and, unless otherwise indicated, are required to pay interest at floating rates that are periodically reset by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread. In some instances, the rates shown represent the weighted average rate as of June 30, 2023. Senior Loans are generally not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) and often incorporate certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Senior Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity. |
(b) | All or a portion of this Senior Loan position has not settled. Full contract rates do not take effect until settlement date and therefore are subject to change. |
(c) | The interest rate on this Senior Loan is subject to a base lending rate plus a spread. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks (“Prime”). The interest rate is subject to a minimum floor, which may be less than or greater than the prevailing period end LIBOR/SOFR/Prime rate. As of June 30, 2023, the 1, 3 and 6 month LIBOR rates were 5.22%, 5.54% and 5.76%, respectively, the 1, 3 and 6 month SOFR rates were 5.14%, 5.27%, and 5.39%, respectively, and the Prime lending rate was 8.25%. Senior Loans may contain multiple contracts of the same issuer which may be subject to base lending rates of LIBOR, SOFR and Prime (“Variable”) in addition to the stated spread. |
(d) | Fair Value Level 3 security. |
(e) | Foreign issuer traded in U.S. dollars. |
(f) | Represents a payment‑in‑kind (“PIK”) security, which may pay interest in additional principal amount/share quantity. |
(g) | Issuer filed for bankruptcy and/or is in default of principal and/or interest payments. |
(h) | Fixed rate asset. |
(i) | Securities exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act. These securities may only be resold in transactions exempt from registration to qualified institutional buyers. At June 30, 2023, these securities amounted to $28,373,859, or 12.32% of net assets. |
(j) | Non‑income producing asset. |
(k) | The Fund has granted a security interest in substantially all of its assets in the event of default under the credit facility. |
(l) | Principal of $130,000,000 less unamortized deferred financing costs of $169,978. |

(a) | “Senior Loans” are senior, secured loans made to companies whose debt is below investment grade as well as investments with similar economic characteristics. Senior Loans typically hold a first lien priority and, unless otherwise indicated, are required to pay interest at floating rates that are periodically reset by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread. In some instances, the rates shown represent the weighted average rate as of June 30, 2023. Senior Loans are generally not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) and often incorporate certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Senior Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity. |
(b) | All or a portion of this Senior Loan position has not settled. Full contract rates do not take effect until settlement date and therefore are subject to change. |
(c) | The interest rate on this Senior Loan is subject to a base lending rate plus a spread. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks (“Prime”). The interest rate is subject to a minimum floor, which may be less than or greater than the prevailing period end LIBOR/SOFR/Prime rate. As of June 30, 2023, the 1, 3 and 6 month LIBOR rates were 5.22%, 5.54% and 5.76%, respectively, the 1, 3 and 6 month SOFR rates were 5.14%, 5.27%, and 5.39%, respectively, and the Prime lending rate was 8.25%. Senior Loans may contain multiple contracts of the same issuer which may be subject to base lending rates of LIBOR, SOFR and Prime (“Variable”) in addition to the stated spread. |
(d) | Fair Value Level 3 security. |
(e) | Foreign issuer traded in U.S. dollars. |
(f) | Represents a payment‑in‑kind (“PIK”) security, which may pay interest in additional principal amount/share quantity. |
(g) | Issuer filed for bankruptcy and/or is in default of principal and/or interest payments. |
(h) | Fixed rate asset. |
(i) | Securities exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act. These securities may only be resold in transactions exempt from registration to qualified institutional buyers. At June 30, 2023, these securities amounted to $85,825,563, or 41.19% of net assets. |
(j) | Non‑income producing asset. |
(k) | The Fund has granted a security interest in substantially all of its assets in the event of default under the credit facility. |
(l) | Principal of $121,000,000 less unamortized deferred financing costs of $147,315. |
(m) | Structured Products include collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”). A CLO typically takes the form of a financing company (generally called a special purpose vehicle or “SPV”), created to reapportion the risk and return characteristics of a pool of assets. While the assets underlying CLOs are often Senior Loans or corporate notes and bonds, the assets may also include (i) subordinated loans; (ii) debt tranches of other CLOs; and (iii) equity securities incidental to investments in Senior Loans. The Fund may invest in lower tranches of CLOs, which typically experience a lower recovery, greater risk of loss or deferral or non‑payment of interest than more senior tranches of the CLO. A key feature of the CLO structure is the prioritization of the cash flows from a pool of debt securities among the several classes of the CLO. The SPV is a company founded for the purpose of securitizing payment claims arising out of this asset pool. On this basis, marketable securities are issued by the SPV and the redemption of these securities typically takes place at maturity out of the cash flow generated by the collected claims. |
(n) | Floating rate asset. The interest rate shown reflects the rate in effect at June 30, 2023. |

(a) | For the assets which have multiple valuation techniques, the Fund may rely on the techniques individually or in aggregate based on a weight ranging from 0-100%. |
(b) | The Fund utilized a discounted cash flow model to fair value this security. The significant unobservable input used in the valuation model was the discount rate, which was determined based on the market rates an investor would expect for a similar investment with similar risks. The discount rate was applied to present value the projected cash flows in the valuation model. Significant increases in the discount rate may significantly lower the fair value of an investment; conversely, significant decreases in the discount rate may significantly increase the fair value of an investment. |
(c) | The Fund utilized a recoverability approach to fair value this security, specifically a liquidation analysis. There are various, company specific inputs used in the valuation analysis that relate to the liquidation value of a company’s assets. The significant unobservable input used in the valuation model was estimated proceeds. Significant increases or decreases in the input in isolation may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. |
(d) | The Fund utilized a recent transaction, specifically purchase price, to fair value this security. |
(e) | The Fund utilized a guideline public company method to fair value this security. The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation model were total enterprise value (“TEV”) and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) based on comparable multiples for a similar investment with similar risks. Significant increases or decreases in either of these inputs in isolation may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. |
(f) | The Fund utilized a guideline public company method to fair value this security. The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation model were total enterprise value (“TEV”) and revenue based on comparable multiples for a similar investment with similar risks. Significant increases or decreases in either of these inputs in isolation may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. |
