IV. PERSONAL INVESTMENT AND TRADING POLICY

A. General Statement

Solar Capital is committed to maintaining the highest standard of business conduct.

Solar Capital and its Supervised Persons must not act or behave in any manner or engage in any activity that (1) involves or creates even the suspicion or appearance of the misuse of material, nonpublic information by Solar Capital or any Supervised Person or (2) gives rise to, or appears to give rise to, any breach of fiduciary duty owed to any Client or investor.

In addition, the Federal Securities Laws require that investment advisers maintain a record of every transaction in any Security, with certain exceptions, as described below, in which any Access Person acquires or disposes of Beneficial Ownership where the Security is or was held in an account over which the Access Person has direct or indirect influence or control. Given the current size of its operations,Solar Capitalhas chosen to require reporting of transactions, as well aspre-approval of certain transactions, for all Supervised

A-4

Persons (subject to the specific exceptions in the Code), rather than only Access Persons.Notwithstanding the foregoing, Disinterested Directors are not subject to the preclearance and reporting requirements of the Code. However, with respect to the Company’s securities Disinterested Directors must transact during the window periods and subsequently report the transaction detail to the Company on the day of the transaction.

Solar Capital has developed the following policies and procedures relating to personal trading in Securities and the reporting of such personal trading in Securities in order to ensure that each Supervised Person satisfies the requirements of this Code.

B. Requirements of this Code

1.    Duty to Comply with Applicable Laws.

All Supervised Persons are required to comply with the Federal Securities Laws, the fiduciary duty owed by Adviser to its Clients, as applicable, and this Code.

2.    Insider Trading Controls

All Supervised Persons are required to comply with theInsider Trading Policies and Procedures adopted by the Adviser and the BDC which appears asAppendix VII of this Code of Ethics and is incorporated herein by this reference.

3.    Duty to Report Violations.

Each Supervised Person is required by law to promptly notify the Chief Compliance Officer or designee in the event he or she knows or has reason to believe that he or she or any other Supervised Person has violated any provision of this Code. If a Supervised Person knows or has reason to believe that the Chief Compliance Officer has violated any provision of this Code, the Supervised Person must promptly notify the Chief Financial Officer and is not required to notify the Chief Compliance Officer.

Solar Capital is committed to fostering a culture of compliance. Solar Capital therefore urges you to contact the Chief Compliance Officer or designee if you have any questions regarding compliance. You will not be penalized and your status at Solar Capital will not be jeopardized by communicating with the Chief Compliance Officer. Reports of violations or a suspected violations also may be submitted anonymously to the Chief Compliance Officer or designee. Any retaliatory action taken against any person who in good faith reports a violation or a suspected violation of this Code is itself a violation of this Code and cause for appropriate corrective action, including dismissal.

4.    Supervised Personnel to be Supplied Copies, and Furnish Acknowledgements of Receipt of the Code of Ethics and Any Amendments Thereof.

Solar Capital will provide all Supervised Persons with a copy of this Code and all subsequent amendments. By law, all Supervised Persons must in turn provide written acknowledgement to the Chief Compliance Officer or designee of their initial receipt and review of this Code, their annual review of this Code and their receipt and review of any subsequent amendments to this Code.

A-5

C. Restrictions on Supervised Persons Trading in Securities

1.    Generally.

Purchases of Reportable Securities (other than Index Securities) by Supervised Persons and participation by Supervised Persons in an Initial Public Offering or Limited Offering require advance preclearance approval, in writing, by a Compliance Officer together with thespecific approval of both Partners.

Sales of Reportable Securities (other than Index Securities) by Supervised Persons require advance preclearance approval, in writing, by a Compliance Officer together with thespecific approval of both Partners.

All Supervised Person personal trading in Securities (other than Index Securities) is subject to the following further requirements and/or restrictions.

(a)    Any transaction in a Security subject to the Restricted List of issuers maintained by Solar Capital is strictly prohibited.

(b)    Any transaction in a Security which the Supervised Person knows or has reason to know is being purchased or sold, or is being considered for purchase or sale, by or on behalf of a Client is prohibited until the Client’s transaction has been completed or consideration of the transaction is abandoned. A Security is “being considered for purchase or sale” the earlier of (i) when a recommendation to purchase or sell has been made and communicated or (ii) the Security is placed on Adviser’s research project lists or, (iii) with respect to the Supervised Person making the recommendation, when the Supervised Person seriously considers making such a recommendation.

(c)    No Supervised Person may engage in a transaction in a Security, which includes an interest in a Fund, if the Supervised Person’s transaction would otherwise disadvantage or appear to disadvantage a Client or if the Supervised Person would inappropriately profit from or appear to so profit from the transaction, whether or not at the expense of the Client.For the avoidance of doubt, this prohibition applies to any Security held, at the time of a personal transaction, in any Client account.

(d)    Any transaction in a Security during the period which begins three days before and ends three days after any Client has traded in that Security is prohibited, unless approved by a Compliance Officer.

(e)    No matched purchases and sales, or sales and purchases, in the same Security within athirty-day period may be transacted without the advance approval of a Compliance Officer.

(f)    Personal account trading must be done on the Supervised Person’s own time without placing undue burden on Solar Capital’s time.

(g)    No personal trades should be undertaken which are beyond the financial resources of the Supervised Person.

(h)    For the avoidance of doubt:

(i)     Supervised Person Transactions in Index Securities are subject to the reporting, but not the preclearance requirements of this Code.

(ii)    Supervised Person Transactions in Reportable Securities other than Index Securities are subject to both the preclearance and the reporting requirements of this Code.

A-6

(iii)    Supervised Person Transactions by Disinterested Directors are not subject to the preclearance and reporting requirements of this Code. However, with respect to the Company’s securities Disinterested Directors must transact during the window periods and subsequently report the transaction detail to the Company on the day of the transaction.

2.    Accounts of Record

(a)    You may not hold, and you may not permit any other person or entity to hold, on your behalf, any publicly traded Reportable Securities in which you have, or by reason of a Supervised Person Purchase Transaction (as hereinafter defined) will acquire, a Beneficial Ownership Interest, except through an “account of record” with the Adviser maintained with a bank or registered broker-dealer custodian (a “custodian”) or a registered investment adviser.

(b)    You must provide written notice to a Compliance Officer of your opening of an account with a bank or broker-dealer custodian or an investment adviser through which you (or your investment adviser, acting on your behalf) have the ability to purchase or sell publicly traded Reportable Securities promptly after opening the account, and in any event before the first order for the purchase or sale of such Securities is placed through the account. A Compliance Officer will then ask you to complete and sign a written notice to the account custodian or investment adviser (the forms of which are attached as Appendix IV and Appendix V hereto) which discloses your affiliation with the Adviser and requests that duplicate hard copies of trade confirmations and periodic statements reflecting all holdings and transactions within the account be promptly and confidentially sent to the attention of the Chief Compliance Officer.¹ A Compliance Officer will review and, upon approval, transmit the notice to your account custodian or investment adviser.

3.    Transactions of Immediate Family Members.

There is a presumption that a Supervised Person can exert some measure of influence or control over accounts held by members of such person’s Immediate Family sharing the same household. Therefore, transactions by Immediate Family members sharing the same household are subject to the policies herein. A Supervised Person may rebut this presumption by presenting convincing evidence, in writing, to the Chief Compliance Officer and request an exemption to one or more policies herein. All exemptions must be approved by the Chief Compliance Officer, in writing.

4.    The following are Exempt Transactions that do not require preclearance by a Compliance Officer:

(a)    Any transaction in Securities in an account over which a Supervised Person does not have any direct or indirect influence or control (such as a fully discretionary managed account through a registered investment adviser). To rely upon this exemption, Supervised Persons must provide: (1) information about a trustee or third–party manager’s relationship to the Supervised Person (i.e., independent professional versus friend or relative; unaffiliated versus affiliated firm); (2) periodic certifications regarding the Supervised Persons’ influence or control over trusts or accounts (or obtain the certification from the third party manager or trustee when requested); and (3) when requested, reports on holdings and/or transactions made in the trust or discretionary account to identify transactions that would have been prohibited pursuant to the Code of Ethics, absent reliance on the reporting exemption.

¹  In lieu of using the referenced Appendices requesting the forwarding ofhard-copy confirmations and account statements, the Adviser will ordinarily ask, if feasible, that the account custodian agree to establish anautomaticelectronic feed of all account holding and transaction activity to the Adviser’s area of thePersonal Trade Compliance Center (“PTCC”) online “cloud” system which the Adviser has licensed from Compliance Science, Inc.

A-7

(b)    Purchases of Securities under Automatic Investment Plans (such as an employer-sponsored 401(k) plan).

(d)    Acquisitions or dispositions of Securities as the result of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, merger, consolidation,spin-off or other similar corporate distribution or reorganization applicable to all holders of a class of Securities in which a Supervised Person has a Beneficial Ownership Interest.

5.    Supervised Person Transaction Preclearance and Execution Procedures

The following procedures shall govern all transactions in which a Supervised Person intends to sell (a “Supervised Person Sale Transaction”) or intends to acquire (a “Supervised Person Purchase Transaction”; together with “Supervised Person Sale Transaction”, a “Supervised Person Transaction”) a Beneficial Ownership Interest and which are subject to the requirement of securing advance preclearance approval, in writing, by a Compliance Officer.

(a)    Preclearance.

Requests for preclearance of Supervised Person Transactions are to be delivered, confidentially and in writing (via the Adviser’s email network), to the attention of a Compliance Officer and both Partners. Responses on behalf of such Compliance Officer and both Partners will be conveyed, confidentially and in writing ordinarily via email, within two (2) business days regarding Supervised Person Transaction requests involving publicly traded Reportable Securities and five (5) business days regarding Transaction requests involving other Reportable Securities.

(i)    Supervised Person Purchase Transactions.

Preclearance of Supervised Person Purchase Transactions may be withheld for any reason, or no reason, in the sole discretion of the Chief Compliance Officer and both Partners.

(ii)    Supervised Person Sale Transactions.

A Supervised Person Sale may be disapproved if it is determined by the Chief Compliance Officer and both Partners that the Supervised Person is unfairly benefiting from, or that the transaction is in conflict with, or appears to be in conflict with, any Client Transaction (as defined below), any of the above-described trading restrictions, or otherwise by this Code. The determination that a Supervised Person may unfairly benefit from, or that a Supervised Person Sale may conflict with or appears to be in conflict with, a Client Transaction will be subjective and individualized, and may include questions about the timely and adequate dissemination of information, availability of bids and offers, and other factors deemed pertinent for an individual Client transaction or series of transactions. It is possible that a disapproval of a Supervised Person Sale could becostly to a Supervised Person or members of a Supervised Person’s family; therefore, each Supervised Person should take great care to adhere to Solar Capital’s trading restrictions and avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of conflicts of interest.

A-8

Any disapproval of a Supervised Person Sale Transaction shall be in writing. A Supervised Person may appeal any such disapproval by written notice to the Partners within two business days after receipt of notice of disapproval.

(b)    Executions of Supervised Person Transactions.

Confirmation of Supervised Person Transactions in all other Reportable Securities must be promptly conveyed, confidentially and in writing, to the attention of the Chief Compliance Officer.

Review of submitted holding and transaction reports will include not only an assessment of whether the Supervised Person followed all required procedures of this Code, such as preclearance, but may also: compare the personal trading to any restricted lists; assess whether the Supervised Person is trading for his or her own account in the same securities he or she is trading for Clients, and, if so, whether the Clients are receiving terms as favorable as the Supervised Person receives; periodically analyze the Supervised Person’s trading for patterns that may indicate abuse, including market timing; investigate any substantial disparities between the quality of performance the Supervised Person achieves for his or her own account and that he or she achieves for Clients; and investigate any substantial disparities between the percentage of trades that are profitable when the Supervised Person trades for his or her own account and the percentage that are profitable when he or she places trades for Clients.

VI. POLICY ON GIFTS

Gifts. A Supervised Person is prohibited from improperly using his or her position to obtain an item of value from any person or company that does business with Solar Capital. Supervised Persons must report to a Compliance Officer receipt of any gift greater than $300 in value from any person or company that does business with the Company. Unsolicited business entertainment, including meals or tickets to cultural and sporting events do not need to be reported if: a) they are not so frequent or of such high value as to raise a question of impropriety and b) the person providing the entertainment is present at the event.

Regardless of dollar value, Supervised Persons may not give a gift or provide entertainment that is inappropriate under the circumstances, or inconsistent with applicable law or regulations, to persons associated with securities or financial organizations, exchanges, member firms, commodity firms, news media, or Clients. Persons must obtain clearance from the either Partner and a Compliance Officer prior giving any gift greater than $300 in value to any person or company that does business with the Company.

Supervised Persons should not give or receive gifts or entertainment that would be embarrassing to themselves or to Solar Capital if made public.

VII. COMPLIANCE

A.    Certificate of Receipt

Supervised Persons are required to acknowledge receipt of the Compliance Manual and, therefore, your copy of this Code and that you have read and understood the Compliance Manual. A form for this purpose is attached to this Code as Appendix I.

B.    Annual Certificate of Compliance

If you are normally eligible for a discretionary bonus, any violation of the Code may also reduce or eliminate the discretionary portion of your bonus.

VIII. RETENTION OF RECORDS

X. REVIEW.

This Code will be reviewed by the Chief Compliance Officer on an annual basis to ensure that it is meeting its objectives, is functioning fairly and effectively, and is not unduly burdensome to Adviser or Supervised Persons. The Chief Compliance Officer shall issue a report, in writing, to the Board of Directors of the Company stating his or her findings and recommendations as a result of each such review on no less frequently than an annual basis.

Supervised Persons are encouraged to contact the Chief Compliance Officer with any comments, questions or suggestions regarding implementation or improvement of the Code.

1. Transactions required to be reported. You should report every transaction in which you acquired or disposed of any Security in which you had a Pecuniary Interest during the calendar quarter. The term “Beneficial Ownership Interest” is the subject of a long history of opinions and releases issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally means that you would receive the pecuniary benefits of owning a Security. The term includes, but is not limited to the following cases and any other examples in the Code:

(B) Where the Security is held for the benefit of members of your Immediate Family sharing the same household;

(C) Where Securities are held by a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, investment club or other entity in which you have an equity interest if you are a controlling equityholder or you have or share investment control over the Securities held by the entity;

(D) Where Securities are held in a trust for which you are a trustee and under which either you or any member of your Immediate Family have a vested interest in the principal or income; and

(E) Where Securities are held in a trust for which you are the settlor, unless the consent of all of the beneficiaries is required in order for you to revoke the trust.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following transactions are not required to be reported:

(A) Transactions in Securities which are direct obligations of the United States;

(B) Transactions effected in any account over which you have no direct or indirect influence or control; or

INITIAL REPORT OF PRIVATE INVESTMENTS

In accordance with Solar Capital policies and procedures, please indicate whether you maintain private investments over which you have influence or control and in which any private investments are held in which you have a Beneficial Ownership Interest.¹ The term private investment is typically defined as an intangible investment and is very broadly construed by Solar Capital. Examples of private investments may include equity in a business or company, a loan to a business or company, an investment in a hedge fund or limited partnership, or securities held in your home or in a safe deposit box. Examples of investments that generally are not considered private investments are your primary residence, vacation home, automobiles, artwork, jewelry, antiques, stamps, and coins.

☐ I do maintain private investments.

☐ I do not maintain private investments.

If you indicated above that you do maintain private investments, please provide the information in the following table (use additional paper if necessary):

Description of Private Investment Value of Private
Investment Approximate
Acquisition Date Does the private investment involve a
company that has publicly traded debt  or
equity? (Yes/No)

I certify that this form and any attachments are accurate and complete and constitute all of my private investments.

¹  You will be considered to have a “Beneficial Ownership Interest” in an investment if: (i) you have a Pecuniary Interest in the investment; (ii) you have voting power with respect to the investment, meaning the power to vote or direct the voting of the investment; or (iii) you have the power to dispose, or direct the disposition of, the investment. You will be considered to have a “Pecuniary Interest” in an investment if you, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, have the opportunity, directly or indirectly, to profit or share in any profit derived from a transaction in the investment. The term “Pecuniary Interest” is construed very broadly. The following examples illustrate this principle: (i) ordinarily, you will be deemed to have a “Pecuniary Interest” in all investments owned by members of your Immediate Family who share the same household with you; (ii) if you are a general partner of a general or limited partnership, you will be deemed to have a “Pecuniary Interest” in all investments held by the partnership; (iii) if you are a shareholder of a corporation or similar business entity, you will be deemed to have a “Pecuniary Interest” in all investments held by the corporation if you are a controlling shareholder or have or share investment control over the corporation’s investment portfolio; (iv) if you have the right to acquire equity security through the exercise or conversion of a derivative investment, you will be deemed to have a Pecuniary Interest in the investment, whether or not your right is presently exercisable; (v) if you are the sole member or a manager of a limited liability company, you will be deemed to have a Pecuniary Interest in the investments held by the limited liability company; and (vi) ordinarily, if you are a trustee or beneficiary of a trust, where either you or members of your Immediate Family have a vested interest in the principal or income of the trust, you will be deemed to have a Pecuniary Interest in all investments held by that trust.

Appendix VII

INSIDER TRADING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

I. BACKGROUND

All personal securities trades are subject to these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures. However, compliance with the trading restrictions imposed by these procedures by no means assures full compliance with the prohibition on trading while in the possession of inside information, as defined in these procedures.

Insider trading — trading Securities while in possession of material, nonpublic information or improperly communicating such information to others — may expose a person to stringent penalties. Criminal sanctions may include a fine of up to $1,000,000 and/or ten years’ imprisonment. The Commission may recover the profits gained, or losses avoided, through insider trading, obtain a penalty of up to three times the illicit gain or avoided loss, and/or issue an order permanently barring any person engaging in insider trading from the securities industry. In addition, investors may sue seeking to recover damages for insider trading violations.

These Insider Trading Policies and Procedures are drafted broadly and will be applied and interpreted in a similar manner. Regardless of whether a federal inquiry occurs, Solar Capital views seriously any violation of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures.Any violation constitutes grounds for disciplinary sanctions, including dismissal and/or referral to civil or governmental authorities for possible civil or criminal prosecution.

The law of insider trading is complex; a Supervised Person legitimately may be uncertain about the application of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures in a particular circumstance. A question could forestall disciplinary action or complex legal problems. Supervised Persons should direct any questions relating to these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures to a Compliance Officer. A Supervised Person must also notify a Compliance Officer immediately if he or she knows or has reason to believe that a violation of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures has occurred or is about to occur.

Any capitalized terms used but not defined in the Insider Trading Policies and Procedures shall have their respective meanings as defined in the Code of Ethics of Solar Capital.

II. STATEMENT OF FIRM POLICY

A.    At all times, the interests of Solar Capital’s Clients must prevail over the individual’s interest.

B.    Buying or selling Securities in the public markets on the basis of material, nonpublic information is prohibited. Similarly, buying and selling securities in a private transaction on the basis of material, nonpublic information is prohibited, except in the limited circumstance in which the information is obtained in connection with a private transaction with an issuer of securities, in which case the private transaction itself is permitted. A prohibited transaction would include purchasing or selling (i) for a Supervised Person’s own account or one in which the Supervised Person has direct or indirect influence or control, (ii) for a Client’s account, or (iii) for Adviser’s inventory account. If any Supervised Person is uncertain as to whether information is “material” or “nonpublic,” he or she should consult the Chief Compliance Officer.

C.    Disclosing material, nonpublic information to inappropriate personnel, whether or not for consideration, i.e., “tipping,” is prohibited. Material, nonpublic information must be disseminated on a “need to know basis” only to appropriate personnel. This would include any confidential discussions between the issuer and personnel of Adviser. The Chief Compliance Officer should be consulted should a question arise as to who is privy to material, nonpublic information.

D.    Assisting anyone transacting business on the basis of material, nonpublic information through a third party is prohibited.

VII-1

E.    In view of theGabelli & Co./GAMCO Investments, Inc. SEC proceeding, it is clear that when a portfolio manager is in a position, due to his official duties at an issuer, to have access to inside information on a relatively continuous basis, self-reporting procedures are not adequate to detect and prevent insider trading. Accordingly, neither Adviser nor an Adviser employee may trade in any securities issued by any company of which any Adviser employee is an employee or insider.All Supervised Persons must report to the Chief Compliance Officer or designee any affiliation or business relationship they may have with any issuer (a form of which is attached as Appendix A hereto.)

F.    Supervised Persons should understand that if Solar Capital becomes aware of material, nonpublic information about the issuer of the underlying securities, even if the particular Supervised Person in question does not himself or herself have such knowledge, or enters into certain transactions for clients, Solar Capital will not bear any losses resulting in personal accounts through the implementation of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures.

G.    It is the Company’s policy that Supervised Persons may purchase or sell Company securities only during the “window period” that generally begins on the second business day after the Company publicly releases quarterly or annual financial results and extends until the 15th day of the last calendar month of the quarter in which the results are announced (or such shorter time that may be designated by the Chief Executive Officer of the BDC (“CEO”) or the Chief Operating Officer of the BDC (“COO”) and the CCO). However, the ability of a Supervised Person to engage in transactions in Company securities during window periods is not automatic or absolute. Circumstances may prevent or delay the opening of the window period or cause the window period to be shortened. Further, no trades may be made even during a window period by an individual who possesses material, nonpublic information, other than in accordance with a previously approved Trading Plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Supervised Persons may also purchase or sell Company securities pursuant to a Trading Plan. As used herein, the term “Trading Plan” shall mean apre-arranged trading plan adopted in accordance with and meeting all of the requirements of Rule10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that has been approved by the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer. A Trading Plan may only be entered into, modified or terminated (i) prior to expiration by Supervised Persons at a time they would otherwise be permitted to purchase or sell Company securities, and (ii) with the prior approval of the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer. Each Supervised Person shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with the requirements of Rule10b5-1(c) with respect to any Trading Plan they may enter into, modify or terminate prior to expiration, notwithstanding the prior approval thereof by the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer.

In addition, the Adviser may, subject to regulatory restrictions, award Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) representing discretionary bonuses as part of an employee deferred compensation plan (the “award”) during a closed window period provided that (1) the Adviser, the CEO and the COO are not in possession of materialnon-public information (“MNPI”); (2) the award does not require a purchase of Company securities on the open market but instead represents a transfer or potential transfer of Company securities then held by the Adviser; and (3) the CCO approves the award in advance. To the extent an award representsnon-discretionary compensation, the RSUs may only be awarded in open window periods at a time when the Adviser, the CEO and the COO are not in possession of MNPI.

H.    The following reviews principles important to these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures:

1.    What is “Material” Information?

Information is “material” when there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important in making his or her investment decisions. Generally, information is material if its disclosure will have a substantial effect on the price of a company’s Securities. No simple “bright line” test exists to determine whether information is material; assessments of materiality involve highlyfact-specific inquiries.However, if the

VII-2

information you have received is or could be a factor in your trading decision, you must assume that the information is material.Supervised Persons should direct any questions regarding the materiality of information to the Chief Compliance Officer or designee.

Material information often relates to a company’s results and operations, including, for example, dividend changes, earnings results, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, major litigation, liquidation problems, and extraordinary management developments. Material information may also relate to the market for a Security. Information about a significant order to purchase or sell Securities, in some contexts, may be deemed material; similarly, prepublication information regarding reports in the financial press may also be deemed material.

2.    What is “Nonpublic” Information?

Information is “nonpublic” until it has been disseminated broadly to investors in the marketplace. Tangible evidence of this dissemination is the best indication that the information is public. For example, information is public after it has become available to the general public through a public filing with the Commission or some other government agency, or available to the Dow Jones “tape” or The Wall Street Journal or some other general circulation publication, and after sufficient time has passed so that the information has been disseminated widely.If you believe that you have information concerning an issuer which gives you an advantage over other investors, the information is, in all likelihood,non-public.

3.    Identifying Inside Information.

Before executing any trade for oneself or others, including Clients, a Supervised Person must determine whether he or she has access to material, nonpublic information. If a Supervised Person believes he or she might have access to material, nonpublic information, he or she should:

a.    Immediately alert the Chief Compliance Officeror designee, so that the applicable Security is placed on the Restricted List.

b.    Not purchase or sell the Securities on his or her behalf or for others, including Clients (except in the limited circumstance in which the information is obtained in connection with a private transaction with an issuer of securities, in which case the private transaction itself is permitted).

c.    Not communicate the information inside or outside of Adviser, other than to the Chief Compliance Officer or designee (or, in the limited circumstance of a private transaction with an issuer of securities, to Supervised Persons within Adviser involved in the transaction with a need to know the information).

The Chief Compliance Officer will review the issue, determine whether the information is material and nonpublic, and, if so, what action Adviser should take.

4.    Contacts With Public Companies.

Contacts with public companies may represent part of Adviser’s research efforts and Adviser may make investment decisions on the basis of its conclusions formed through these contacts and analysis of publicly available information. Difficult legal issues may arise, however, when a Supervised Person, in the course of these contacts, becomes aware of material, nonpublic information. For example, a company’s Chief Financial Officer could prematurely disclose quarterly results, or an investor relations representative could make a selective disclosure of adverse news to certain investors. In these situations, Adviser must make a judgment about its further conduct. To protect oneself, Clients, and Adviser, a Supervised Person should immediately contact the Chief Compliance Officer if he or she believes he or she may have received material, nonpublic information.

VII-3

5.    Tender Offers.

Tender offers represent a particular concern in the law of insider trading for two reasons. First, tender offer activity often produces extraordinary movement in the price of the target company’s securities. Trading during this time is more likely to attract regulatory attention, and produces a disproportionate percentage of insider trading cases. Second, the Commission has adopted a rule expressly forbidding trading and “tipping” while in possession of material, nonpublic information regarding a tender offer received from the company making the tender offer, the target company, or anyone acting on behalf of either. Supervised Persons must exercise particular caution any time they become aware of nonpublic information relating to a tender offer.

III. INSIDER TRADING PROCEDURES APPLICABLE TO ALL SUPERVISED PERSONS

The following procedures have been established to aid Supervised Persons in avoiding insider trading, and to aid Adviser in preventing, detecting and imposing sanctions against insider trading. Every Supervised Person must follow these procedures or risk serious sanctions, including dismissal, substantial personal liability and criminal penalties. If a Supervised Person has any questions about these procedures, he or she should consult the Chief Compliance Officer or designee.

A.    Responsibilities of Supervised Persons.

All Supervised Persons must make a diligent effort to ensure that a violation of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures does not either intentionally or inadvertently occur. In this regard, all Supervised Persons (other than Disinterested Directors) are responsible for:

(a)    Reading, understanding and consenting to comply with these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures. Supervised Persons will be required to sign an acknowledgment that they have read and understood the Compliance Manual and therefore their responsibilities under the Code;

(b)    Ensuring that no trading occurs for their account, for any account over which they have direct or indirect influence or control or for any Client’s account in Securities included on the Restricted List, or as to which they possess material, nonpublic information, regardless of the Securities being included on the Restricted List (except in the limited circumstance in which the information is obtained in connection with a private transaction with an issuer of securities, in which case the private transaction itself is permitted);

(c)    Not disclosing inside information obtained from any source whatsoever to inappropriate persons. Disclosure to family, friends or acquaintances will be grounds for immediate termination and/or referral to civil or governmental authorities for possible civil or criminal prosecution;

(d)    Consulting the Chief Compliance Officer or designee when questions arise regarding insider trading or when potential violations of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures are suspected;

(e)    Ensuring that Adviser receives copies of confirmations and statements from both internal and external brokerage firms for accounts of Supervised Persons and members of the Immediate Family of such Supervised Persons sharing the same household;

(f)    Advising the Chief Compliance Officer or designee of all outside business activities, directorships, or ownership of over 5% of the shares of a public company. No Supervised Person may engage in any outside business activities as employee, proprietor, partner, consultant, trustee officer or director without prior written consent of the Chief Compliance Officer, or a designee of the Chief Compliance Officer (a form of which is attached asAppendix A hereto); and

VII-4

(g)    Being aware of, and monitoring, any Clients who are shareholders, directors, and/or senior officers of public companies. Any unusual activity including a purchase or sale of restricted stock must be brought to the attention of the Chief Compliance Officer or designee.

B.    Security.

In order to prevent accidental dissemination of material, nonpublic information, personnel must adhere to the following guidelines:

1.    Inform management when unauthorized personnel enter the premises.

2.    Lock doors at all times in areas that have confidential and secure files.

3.    Refrain from discussing sensitive information in public areas.

4.    Refrain from leaving confidential information on message devices.

5.    Maintain control of sensitive documents, including handouts and copies, intended for internal dissemination only.

6.    Ensure that faxes ande-mail messages containing sensitive information are properly sent, and confirm that the recipient has received the intended message.

7.    Do not allow passwords to be given to unauthorized personnel.

IV. SUPERVISORY PROCEDURES

Supervisory procedures can be divided into two classifications — prevention of insider trading and detection of insider trading.

A.    Prevention of Insider Trading

To prevent insider trading, the Chief Compliance Officer or designee should:

1.    Maintain a Restricted List which includes the name of any company, whether or not a client of Adviser, as to which one or more individuals at Adviser has a fiduciary relationship or may have material information which has not been publicly disclosed.    The Restricted List is maintained by the Chief Compliance Officer and his or her designees. The Chief Compliance Officer or such other Compliance Officer as may be designated shall be responsible for: (i) determining whether any particular securities should be included on the Restricted List; (ii) determining when Securities should be removed from the Restricted List; and (iii) ensuring that Securities are timely added to and removed from the Restricted List, as appropriate, no less frequently than on a quarterly basis.

2.    Answer questions regarding Solar Capital’s policies and procedures;

3.    Resolve issues of whether information received by an officer, director or employee of Solar Capital constitutes Inside Information and determine what action, if any, should be taken;

4.    Review these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures on a regular basis and update them as necessary;

5.    When it has been determined that a Supervised Person has Inside Information:

(a)    Implement measures to prevent dissemination of such information other than to appropriate Supervised Persons on a “need to know” basis, and

(b)    Not permit any Solar Capital employee to execute any transaction in any securities of the issuer in question (except in the limited circumstance in which the information is obtained in connection with a private transaction with an issuer of securities, in which case the private transaction itself is permitted);

6.    Implement a program of periodic “reminder” notices regarding insider trading;

7.    Confirm with each trader no less frequently than quarterly whether there are any issuers for whom Adviser has Inside Information; and

8.    Compile and maintain the Restricted List of securities in which no Supervised Person may trade because Adviser as an entity is deemed to have Inside Information concerning the issuers of such securities and determine when to remove securities from the Restricted List.

B.    Detection of Insider Trading

To detect insider trading, the Chief Compliance Officer or designee should:

1.    Review daily confirmations and quarterly trading activity reports filed by Supervised Persons; and

2.    Promptly investigate all reports of any possible violations of these Insider Trading Policies and Procedures.

C.    Special Reports to Management

Promptly upon learning of a potential violation of Solar Capital’s Insider Trading Policies and Procedures, the Chief Compliance Officer or designee shall prepare a written report to management providing full details, which may include (1) the name of particular securities involved, if any, (2) the date(s) Solar Capital learned of the potential violation and began investigating; (3) the accounts and individuals involved; (4) actions taken as a result of the investigation, if any; and (5) recommendations for further action.

D.    General Reports to Management

At least yearly, the Chief Compliance Officer will prepare a written report to the management of Adviser setting forth some or all of the following:

1.    A summary of existing procedures to detect and prevent insider trading;

2.    A summary of changes in procedures made in the last year;

3.    Full details of any investigation, whether internal or by a regulatory agency, since the last report regarding any suspected insider trading, the results of the investigation and a description of any changes in procedures promptly by any such investigation; and

4.    An evaluation of the current procedures and a description of anticipated changes in procedures.
