The Fund primarily makes investments in, or that are collateralized by, equipment and other corporate infrastructure (collectively, “Capital Assets”). The investments are in companies that utilize Capital Assets to operate their businesses. These investments are primarily structured as debt and debt-like financings such as loans, leases and other structured financing transactions in, or that are collateralized by, Capital Assets.
The Fund commenced its offering period on July 1, 2013. As of November 12, 2013, we raised a minimum of $1,200,000 (the “Initial Closing Date”), at which time shareholders were admitted and we commenced operations. As of June 13, 2014, we raised the $12,500,000 minimum offering amount for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. From the commencement of our offering through March 31, 2014, we sold 8,021 Class A shares and 156 Class I shares, representing an aggregate of $8,039,346 of capital contributions. We currently anticipate that the offering period will close no later than July 1, 2015, at which time, we will enter our operating period. During the operating period, we anticipate continuing to invest our offering proceeds and cash generated from operations in Capital Assets. Following our operating period, we will enter our wind down period, during which time the loans and leases we own will mature or be sold in the ordinary course of business.
