CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
As of June 30, 2021
1. ORGANIZATION
Carlyle Tactical Private Credit Fund (together with its consolidated subsidiary, the “Fund”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on December 13, 2017, and structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company. The Fund is managed by its Adviser, Carlyle Global Credit Investment Management L.L.C. (“CGCIM” or the “Adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Carlyle Investment Management L.L.C. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Investment Company Act”) and operates as an interval fund. In addition, the Fund has elected to be treated, and intends to continue to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Code”). The Fund engages in a continuous offering of shares and will offer to make quarterly repurchases of shares at net asset value.
On June 4, 2018 (Commencement of Operations), the Fund completed its initial offering of shares of beneficial interest and subsequently commenced substantial investment operations. Effective November 4, 2019, the Fund changed its name from “OFI Carlyle Private Credit Fund” to “Carlyle Tactical Private Credit Fund”. Prior to October 24, 2019, the Fund’s Adviser was OC Private Capital, LLC, a joint venture between an affiliate of Invesco Ltd. and Carlyle Investment Management L.L.C., the parent company of CGCIM.
OCPC Credit Facility SPV LLC (the “SPV”) is a Delaware limited liability company that was formed on March 11, 2018. The SPV is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Fund and is consolidated in these consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of its formation, March 11, 2018.
The Fund’s investment objective is to produce current income. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by opportunistically allocating its assets across a wide range of credit strategies. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in private credit instruments. The Fund will opportunistically allocate its investments in private credit instruments across any number of the following credit strategies: (a) liquid credit (including broadly syndicated loans); (b) direct lending (including first lien loans, second lien loans, unitranche loans and mezzanine debt); (c) opportunistic credit (including private credit solutions, special situations and market dislocations); (d) structured credit (including collateralized loan obligations, or “CLOs”); and (e) real assets (including liabilities secured by real assets). To a lesser extent, the Fund also may invest in distressed credit. The Fund may invest in additional strategies in the future. While some of the loans in which the Fund will invest pursuant to the foregoing may be secured, the Fund may also invest in debt securities that are either unsecured and subordinated to substantial amounts of senior indebtedness, or a significant portion of which may be unsecured. The Fund normally will invest in a number of different countries. There is no minimum or maximum limit on the amount of the Fund’s assets that may be invested in non-U.S. securities. The Fund’s portfolio composition is expected to change over time as the Adviser’s view changes on, among other things, the economic and credit environment (including with respect to interest rates) in which the Fund is operating.
The Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in loans to companies whose debt, if rated, is rated below investment grade, and, if not rated, would likely be rated below investment grade if it were rated (that is, below BBB- or Baa3, which is often referred to as “high yield” or “junk”). Exposure to below investment grade instruments involves certain risks, including speculation with respect to the borrower’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal.
To qualify as a RIC, the Fund must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its shareholders generally at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. Pursuant to this election, the Fund generally does not have to pay corporate level taxes on any income that it distributes to shareholders, provided that the Fund satisfies those requirements.

CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the Fund’s principal underwriter and the distributor of the Fund’s shares. The Fund offers Class A, Class I, Class L, Class M, Class N, and Class Y shares. The Fund began offering Class M shares effective May 15, 2020. During the reporting period, the Fund’s shares were offered for sale on a daily basis for all of its share classes. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications directly attributable to that class. Class A, L, M and Y have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class I and Class N do not pay such fees. The sales load payable by each investor depends upon the amount invested by the investor in the Fund, but may range from 0.00% to 3.50%.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Fund is an investment company for the purposes of accounting and financial reporting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund and its wholly owned subsidiary, the SPV. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. U.S. GAAP for an investment company requires investments to be recorded at fair value. The carrying value for all other assets and liabilities approximates their fair value.
The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form N-CSR under Rule 30e-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (17 CFR 270 30e-1). Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented have been included. These adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. This Form N-CSR should be read in conjunction with the Fund's annual report on Form N-CSR for the year ended December 31, 2020. The results of operations of the six month period ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses
Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Class-specific expenses such as distribution and service plan fees, transfer and shareholder servicing fees, and shareholder communications expenses are broken out by class in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the Fund’s accounting policies. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments and their resulting impact on base management and incentive fees involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Investments
Investment transactions are recorded as of the applicable trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and includes investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments as presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations reflects the net change in the fair value of investments, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized. See Note 3 for further information about fair value measurements.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments (e.g., money market funds, U.S. treasury notes) with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Restricted cash includes cash held on deposit in Cash Collateral Accounts that serve as collateral for the borrowings under the credit facilities and would be applied to the amounts owed under the credit facilities in an event of default (See Note 6). As of June 30, 2021, the Fund had a restricted cash balance of $14,161,112, which represents amounts that are collected by trustees who have been appointed as custodians of the assets securing certain of the Fund's financing transactions, and held for payment of interest expense and principal on the outstanding borrowings, or reinvestment into new assets. The Fund’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are held at one or more large financial institutions and cash held in such financial institutions may, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.
Revenue Recognition
Interest from Investments
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of debt investments represents the original cost, including origination fees and upfront fees received that are deemed to be an adjustment to yield, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.
The Fund has loans in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK represents interest that is accrued and recorded as interest income at the contractual rates, increases the loan principal on the respective capitalization dates, and is generally due at maturity. As of June 30, 2021, the fair value of the fixed income debt securities in the portfolio with PIK provisions was $61,939,813, which represents approximately 9.7% of the total investments at fair value. For the six month period ended June 30, 2021, the Fund earned $1,380,583 in PIK interest income, which is included in PIK interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Fund has loans in its portfolio that are first lien/last out loans. The Fund may receive additional interest and/or discount from an agreement with other lenders on such positions and includes such income, calculated in accordance with the effective interest rate method, as interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Other Income
Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, unused, syndication, arranger and prepayment fees associated with the Fund’s investment activities. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered. The Fund may receive fees for guaranteeing the outstanding debt of a portfolio company. Such fees are amortized into other income over the life of the guarantee. The unamortized amount, if any, is included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Non-Accrual Income
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of June 30, 2021, all of the loans in the portfolio were performing and current on their interest payments.
Credit Facility Related Costs, Expenses and Deferred Financing Costs (See Note 6, Borrowings)
The SPV closed on a credit agreement with Société Générale on June 28, 2018 (the “SPV Credit Facility”), which was subsequently amended to include HSBC Bank USA, National Association as a lender. On May 5, 2021, the SPV terminated the credit facility with Société Générale and HSBC Bank USA, National Association and entered a loan and security agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank (the “JPM Credit Facility”), which was subsequently amended to increase the commitment. The agreement provides the SPV with an asset-backed credit facility.
Interest expense and unused commitment fees on the credit facilities are recorded on an accrual basis. Unused commitment fees are included in interest expense and fees on borrowings in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The JPM Credit Facility is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.
Distribution and Shareholder Service Plan Fees
Distribution and Shareholders Service Plan Fees consist primarily of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offering of shares, including legal, underwriting, printing and other costs, as well as costs associated with the preparation and filing of applicable registration statements. Distribution and Shareholder Service Plan Fees are charged against equity when incurred. The Fund offers its shares on a continual basis through the Distributor. Fees can be up to 0.75% of a class’s average monthly net assets. The fees are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Transfer Agent Fees
Transfer Agent Fees consist primarily of fees and expenses incurred in connection with electronic processing of client orders, fund transfers between clients and the Fund, client maintenance and documentation. The Fund pays the Transfer Agent a fee based on various factors, including number of accounts and filings. DST Systems, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer agent for the Fund. The Fund has entered into arrangements with one or more financial intermediaries to provide sub-transfer agency and other services associated with shareholders whose shares are held of record in omnibus accounts. In return for these services, the Fund pays sub-transfer agency fees to such financial intermediaries. Fees incurred with respect to these services are detailed in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Income Taxes
For federal income tax purposes, the Fund has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code, and intends to make the required distributions to its shareholders as specified therein. In order to qualify as a RIC, the Fund must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then the Fund is generally required to pay income taxes only on the portion of its taxable income and gains it does not distribute.
31
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require the Fund to distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (“ICTI”), as defined by the Code, each year (the “Annual Distribution Requirement”). ICTI includes non-cash income such as PIK income. Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Fund may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such ICTI.
In addition, based on the excise distribution requirements, the Fund is subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on undistributed income unless the Fund distributes in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income realized, but not distributed, in the preceding year. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by the Fund that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed. The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions each taxable year to satisfy the excise distribution requirements.
The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely than not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. The SPV is a disregarded entity for tax purposes and is consolidated with the tax return of the Fund. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes, if any, are included in income tax expense.
Due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders of Beneficial Interest
To the extent that the Fund has taxable income available, the Fund intends to make quarterly distributions to its common shareholders. Estimated dividends and distributions to shareholders of beneficial interest will accrue daily based on the day’s income and expense activity. Dividends and distributions to shareholders of beneficial interest are recorded on the record date executed at the pre-dividend reinvestment program NAV per share. The amount to be distributed is determined by the Board of Trustees each quarter and is generally based upon the taxable earnings estimated by management and available cash. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually, although the Fund may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
The Fund has an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of dividends and other distributions on behalf of the shareholder, other than those shareholders who have “opted out” of the plan. As a result of adopting the plan, if the Board of Trustees authorizes, and the Fund declares, a cash dividend or distribution, the shareholders who have not elected to “opt out” of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Fund’s shares of beneficial interest, rather than receiving cash. Each registered shareholder may elect to have such shareholder’s dividends and distributions distributed in cash rather than participate in the plan. For any registered shareholder that does not so elect, distributions on such shareholder’s shares will be reinvested by DST Systems, Inc., the Fund’s plan administrator, in additional shares. The number of shares to be issued to the shareholder will be determined based on the total dollar amount of the cash distribution payable, net of applicable withholding taxes.
Functional Currency
The functional currency of the Fund is the U.S. Dollar. Investments are generally made in the local currency of the country in which the investments are domiciled and are translated into U.S. Dollars with foreign currency translation gains or losses recorded within net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Foreign currency translation gains and losses on non-investment assets and liabilities are separately reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Recent Accounting Standards Updates
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging transactions as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements.
3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Fund applies fair value accounting in accordance with the terms of FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be exchanged to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transfer between market participants at the measurement date. The Fund values securities/instruments traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the bid price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Fund may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments, such as its securities/instruments traded in active markets and its liquid securities/instruments that are not traded in active markets, from pricing services, brokers, or counterparties (i.e., “consensus pricing”). When doing so, the Adviser determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to U.S. GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. The Fund may use the quote obtained or alternative pricing sources may be utilized including valuation techniques typically utilized for illiquid securities/instruments.
Securities/instruments that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Adviser or the Fund’s Board of Trustees, does not represent fair value shall each be valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available. These valuation techniques may vary by investment and include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and/or discounted cash flow analyses. The Board of Trustees engages third-party valuation firms to provide independent prices on securities/instruments that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation. The Adviser’s Valuation Committee (the “Valuation Committee”) reviews the assessments of the third-party valuation firms and provides any recommendations with respect to changes to the fair value of each investment in the portfolio and approves the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of the third-party valuation firms. If the Adviser reasonably believes a valuation from an independent valuation firm or pricing vendor is inaccurate or unreliable, the Adviser’s Valuation Committee will consider an “override” of the particular valuation. The Valuation Committee will consider all available information at its disposal prior to making a valuation determination.
All factors that might materially impact the value of an investment are considered, including, but not limited to the assessment of the following factors, as relevant:
•the nature and realizable value of any collateral;
•call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;
•the portfolio company’s leverage and ability to make payments;
•the portfolio company’s public or private credit rating;
•the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;
•prevailing interest rates and spreads for similar securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;
•the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and
•comparisons to comparable transactions and publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available financial statements and compliance certificate received from the portfolio companies as of the measurement date which in many cases may reflect a lag in information.
Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Fund’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been reported had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material.
In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the realized gains or losses on investments to be different from the net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation currently reflected in the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021.
U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which ranks the level of observability of market price inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment and state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.
Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in determination of fair values, as follows:
•Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Financial instruments in this category generally include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Adviser does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Fund holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
•Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date and are those other than quoted prices in active markets. Financial instruments in this category generally include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.
•Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments in this category generally include investments in privately-held entities, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. The Adviser’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.
Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the period in which the transfers occur. During the six month period ended June 30, 2021, there were transfers of $5,488,788 into Level 3 and $8,354,956 out of Level 3. Transfers into and out of Level 3 occurred due to the Fund’s policy to determine the fair value hierarchy based on available quoted prices in active markets.

The Fund generally uses the following framework when determining the fair value of investments that are categorized as Level 3:
Investments in debt securities are initially evaluated to determine whether the enterprise value of the portfolio company is greater than the applicable debt. The enterprise value of the portfolio company is estimated using a market approach and an income approach. The market approach utilizes market value (EBITDA) multiples of publicly traded comparable companies and available precedent sales transactions of comparable companies. The Fund carefully considers numerous factors when selecting the appropriate companies whose multiples are used to value its portfolio companies. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of organization, similarity to the business being valued, relevant risk factors, as well as size, profitability and growth expectations. The income approach typically uses a discounted cash flow analysis of the portfolio company.
35
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
Investments in debt securities that do not have sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are valued based on an expected probability of default and discount recovery analysis.
Investments in debt securities with sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are generally valued using a discounted cash flow analysis of the underlying security. Projected cash flows in the discounted cash flow typically represent the relevant security’s contractual interest, fees and principal payments plus the assumption of full principal recovery at the security’s expected maturity date. The discount rate to be used is determined using market-based methodologies. Investments in debt securities may also be valued using consensus pricing.
Investments in equities are generally valued using a market approach and/or an income approach. The market approach utilizes EBITDA multiples of publicly traded comparable companies and available precedent sales transactions of comparable companies. The income approach typically uses a discounted cash flow analysis of the portfolio company.
The following table summarizes the quantitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 instruments which are carried at fair value as of June 30, 2021:

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments in first and second lien, and unsecured debt securities are discount rates and indicative quotes. Significant increases in discount rates would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Significant decreases in indicative quotes may result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments in equities are discount rates and comparable EBITDA multiples. Significant increases in discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Significant decreases in comparable EBITDA multiples in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.
Net Asset Value Valuation
The Fund calculates per share price for the beneficial interests of the Fund on a daily basis (each calculation date herein referred to as the “Valuation Date”). The Fund calculates the per share price based on the net asset value of each Class of shares as of 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time, on each Valuation Date, except in the case of a scheduled early closing of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), in which case the Fund will calculate net asset value of the shares as of the scheduled early closing time of the Exchange.

The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Adviser. The Adviser has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining fair valuation. Determinations are subject to review, approval, and ratification by the Fund’s Board of Trustees at least quarterly or more frequently, if necessary. The Adviser and the Board of Trustees are responsible for the accuracy, reliability and completeness of any market or fair market valuation determinations made with respect to the Fund’s assets.
4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Due to Adviser
In the ordinary course of business, the Fund enters, and may continue to enter into transactions in which the Adviser prepays for the Fund’s expenses that may be considered related party transactions. As of June 30, 2021, the Fund owes the Adviser $84,342 in deal expense reimbursements.
Investment Advisory Agreement
On May 24, 2018, the Fund’s Board of Trustees, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act (the “Independent Trustees”), approved an investment advisory agreement (the “Original Investment Advisory Agreement”) between the Fund and the OC Private Capital, LLC in accordance with, and on the basis of an evaluation satisfactory to such trustees as required by Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act.
The Original Investment Advisory Agreement was amended on September 30, 2019 (as amended, the “First Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement”). On October 24, 2019, the First Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement was further amended (as amended, the “Second Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement”) to replace OC Private Capital, LLC with Carlyle Global Credit Investment Management L.L.C. as the investment adviser. The Second Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement was further amended on April 1, 2020 (as amended, the “Investment Advisory Agreement”).
The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s consolidated month-end Managed Assets (such amount not to exceed, in any case, 1.50% of the Fund’s net assets). Managed Assets means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to any preferred shares that may be issued or to indebtedness) minus the Fund’s liabilities other than liabilities relating to indebtedness.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Fund’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.50% per quarter (6% annualized) or a “catch-up rate” of 1.82% per quarter (7.28% annualized), as applicable, and the Adviser is entitled to receive 17.5% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income after exceeding the “catch-up rate”.
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, effective April 1, 2020, the Fund pays its Adviser an incentive fee with respect to its pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:
•no incentive fee based on pre-incentive fee net investment income in any calendar quarter in which its pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.50%;
•100% of 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 1.82% in any calendar quarter (7.28% annualized). The Fund refers to this portion of the pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.82%) as the “catch-up.” The “catch-up” is meant to provide the Adviser with approximately 17.5% of the Fund’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 1.82% in any calendar quarter; and
•17.5% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.82% in any calendar quarter (7.28% annualized) will be payable to the Adviser. This reflects that once the hurdle rate is reached
37
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
and the catch-up is achieved, 17.5% of all pre-incentive fee net investment income thereafter is allocated to the Adviser.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2021, base management fees were $2,256,214 and incentive fees related to pre-incentive fee net investment income were $2,374,249.
As of June 30, 2021, $523,495 and $1,419,788 was included in management fees payable and incentive fees payable, respectively, in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The Adviser and the Fund have entered into the Expense Limitation Agreement under which the Adviser has agreed contractually for a one-year period ending April 30, 2022, with the option to renew annually, to waive its management fee and/or reimburse the Fund’s operating expenses on a monthly basis to the extent that the Fund’s total annualized fund operating expenses in respect of each class (excluding (i) expenses directly related to the costs of making investments, including interest and structuring costs for borrowing and line(s) of credit, taxes, brokerage costs, the Fund’s proportionate share of expenses related to co-investments, litigation and other unusual and infrequent expenses, (ii) Incentive Fees and (iii) any distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees) in respect of the relevant month exceed 2.00% of the month-end net asset value of such class (the “Expense Limitation”). In consideration of the Adviser’s agreement to waive its management fee and/or reimburse the Fund’s operating expenses, the Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser in the amount of any waived management fees and Fund expenses reimbursed of each class subject to the limitation that reimbursement will be made only if and to the extent that: (i) it is payable not more than three years from the date on which the applicable waiver or expense payment was made by the Adviser, and (ii) the Adviser reimbursement does not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (on an annualized basis and net of any Adviser reimbursements received by the Fund during such fiscal year) during the applicable quarter to exceed the Expense Limitation of such class or another expense limitation in place at that time. As of June 30, 2021, the estimated amount subject to reimbursement by the Fund to the Adviser under the agreement was $5,093,243, of which $805,052 relates to waivers and reimbursements incurred during the current period.
The following table summarizes fees waived/reimbursed during the year ended June 30, 2021 and the amounts eligible for recovery as of June 30, 2021:

Board of Trustees
The Fund’s Board of Trustees currently consists of four members, three of whom are Independent Trustees. The Board of Trustees has established an Audit Committee, a Nominating and Governance Committee and an Independent Trustees Committee, the members of each of which consist entirely of the Fund’s Independent Trustees. The Board of Trustees established a Valuation Committee composed of individuals affiliated with the Adviser to oversee the day-to-day procedures. The Board of Trustees may establish additional committees in the future. For the six month period ended June 30, 2021, the Fund incurred $61,282 in fees and expenses associated with its Independent Trustees' services on the Fund's Board of Trustees and its committees. As of June 30, 2021, $6,162 in fees or expenses associated with the Fund’s Independent Trustees were payable.
Shareholder Concentration
Related parties owned approximately 18% of the Fund's total outstanding shares at period end. Related parties may include, but are not limited to, the Adviser and its affiliates, affiliated broker dealers, fund of funds, and directors or employees.
5. RISK FACTORS
Investment Risks
Portfolio Fair Value Risk
Under the 1940 Act, the Fund is required to carry its portfolio investments at market value or, if there is no readily available market value, at fair value. There is not a public market for the securities of the privately held companies in which the Fund may invest. Many of the Fund’s investments are not exchange-traded, but are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter (“OTC”) secondary market for institutional investors. The Board is responsible for the valuation of the Fund’s portfolio investments, and has delegated day-to-day responsibility for implementing the portfolio valuation process set forth in the Fund’s valuation policy to the Adviser. Valuations of Fund investments are disclosed quarterly in reports publicly filed with the SEC.
A high proportion of the Fund’s investments relative to its total investments are expected to be valued at fair value. Certain factors that may be considered in determining the fair value of the Fund’s investments include dealer quotes for securities traded on the OTC secondary market for institutional investors, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s earnings and its ability to make payments on its indebtedness, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to selected publicly-traded companies, discounted cash flow and other relevant factors. The factors and methodologies used for the valuation of such securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities nor can it be assured that the Fund can realize the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security. Such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, and they often reflect only periodic information received by the Adviser about such companies' financial condition and/or business operations, which may be on a lagged basis and can be based on estimates. Determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an exchange-traded market for these securities existed. Investments in private companies are typically governed by privately negotiated credit agreements and covenants, and reporting requirements contained in the agreements may result in a delay in reporting their financial position to lenders, which in turn may result in the Fund’s investments being valued on the basis of this reported information. Due to these various factors, the Fund’s fair value determinations could cause the Fund’s NAV on a valuation day to materially differ from what it would have been had such information been fully incorporated. As a result, investors who purchase shares may receive more or less shares and investors who tender their shares may receive more or less cash proceeds than they otherwise would receive.

Potential Conflicts of Interest Risk—Allocation of Investment Opportunities
The Adviser has adopted allocation procedures that are intended to treat each fund they advise in a manner that, over a period of time, is fair and equitable. The Adviser and its affiliates currently provide investment advisory and administration services and may provide in the future similar services to other entities (collectively, “Advised Funds”). Certain existing Advised Funds have, and future Advised Funds may have, investment objectives similar to those of the Fund, and such Advised Funds will invest in asset classes similar to those targeted by the Fund. Certain other existing Advised Funds do not, and future Advised Funds may not, have similar investment objectives, but such funds may from time to time invest in asset classes similar to those targeted by the Fund. The Adviser will endeavor to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner, and in any event consistent with any fiduciary duties owed to the Fund and other clients and in an effort to avoid favoring one client over another and taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances, including (without limitation): (i) differences with respect to available capital, size of client, and remaining life of a client; (ii) differences with respect to investment objectives or current investment strategies, including regarding: (a) current and total return requirements, (b) emphasizing or limiting exposure to the security or type of security in question, (c) diversification, including industry or company exposure, currency and jurisdiction, or (d) rating agency ratings; (iii) differences in risk profile at the time an opportunity becomes available; (iv) the potential transaction and other costs of allocating an opportunity among various clients; (v) potential conflicts of interest, including whether a client has an existing investment in the security in question or the issuer of such security; (vi) the nature of the security or the transaction, including minimum investment amounts and the source of the opportunity; (vii) current and anticipated market and general economic conditions; (viii) existing positions in a borrower/loan/security; and (ix) prior positions in a borrower/loan/security. Nevertheless, it is possible that the Fund may not be given the opportunity to participate in certain investments made by investment funds managed by investment managers affiliated with the Adviser.
Loans
The Fund invests in loans, either through primary issuances or in secondary transactions, including potentially on a synthetic basis. The value of the Fund’s loans may be detrimentally affected to the extent a borrower defaults on its obligations. There can be no assurance that the value assigned by the Adviser can be realized upon liquidation, nor can there be any assurance that any related collateral will retain its value. Furthermore, circumstances could arise (such as in the bankruptcy of a borrower) that could cause the Fund’s security interest in the loan’s collateral to be invalidated. Also, much of the collateral will be subject to restrictions on transfer intended to satisfy securities regulations, which will limit the number of potential purchases if the Fund intends to liquidate such collateral. The amount realizable with respect to a loan may be detrimentally affected if a guarantor, if any, fails to meet its obligations under a guarantee. Finally, there may be a monetary, as well as a time cost involved in collecting on defaulted loans and, if applicable, taking possession of various types of collateral.
Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs)
The Fund invests in CLOs. CLOs are backed by a portfolio of senior secured loans. The Fund’s CLO investments may include senior/mezzanine CLO debt tranches (rated investment grade), mezzanine CLO debt tranches (rated below investment grade or unrated), subordinated CLO equity tranches (unrated), leveraged loans (including warehouse facilities that hold such loans) and vehicles that invest indirectly in CLO securities or leveraged loans. If there are defaults or the relevant collateral otherwise underperforms, scheduled payments to senior tranches of such securities take precedence over those of mezzanine tranches, and scheduled payments to mezzanine tranches have a priority in right of payment to subordinated/equity tranches. In light of the above, CLOs may therefore present risks similar to those of other types of debt obligations and, in fact, such risks may be of greater significance in the case of CLOs depending upon the Fund’s ranking in the capital structure. CLOs present risks similar to those of other types of debt obligations and such risks may be of greater significance in the case of CLOs depending upon the Fund’s ranking in the capital structure. In certain cases, losses may equal the total amount of the Fund’s principal investment. CLO securities carry additional risks, including: (1) the possibility that distributions from collateral assets will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (2) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (3) investments in CLO equity and junior debt tranches will likely be subordinate in right of payment to other senior classes of CLO debt; and (4) the complex structure of a particular
40
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
security may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results, especially during times of market stress or volatility.
Securities on a When-Issued or Forward Commitment Basis
The Fund may purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis and may purchase or sell securities on a “forward commitment" basis to acquire the security or to hedge against anticipated changes in interest rates and prices. When such transactions are negotiated, the price is fixed at the time the commitment is made, but delivery and payment for the securities take place at a later date. When-issued securities and forward commitments may be sold prior to the settlement date, but the Fund will enter into when-issued and forward commitments only with the intention of actually receiving or delivering the securities, as the case may be. If the Fund disposes of the right to acquire a when-issued security prior to its acquisition or disposes of its right to deliver or receive against a forward commitment, it might incur a gain or loss. There is always a risk that the securities may not be delivered and that the Fund may incur a loss. Settlements in the ordinary course, which may take substantially more than five business days, are not treated by the Fund as when-issued or forward commitment transactions. The settlements of secondary market purchases of senior loans in the ordinary course, on a settlement date beyond the period expected by loan market participants are subject to delayed compensation. Furthermore, the purchase of a senior loan in the secondary market is typically negotiated and finalized pursuant to a binding trade confirmation, and therefore, the risk of non-delivery of the security to the Fund is reduced or eliminated when compared with such risk when investing in when-issued or forward commitment securities.
Equity Security Risk
Stocks and other equity securities fluctuate in price. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may be affected by changes in the equity markets generally. Equity markets may experience significant short-term volatility and may fall sharply at times. Different markets may behave differently from each other and U.S. equity markets may move in the opposite direction from one or more foreign stock markets. Adverse events in any part of the equity or fixed-income markets may have unexpected negative effects on other market segments. The prices of individual equity securities generally do not all move in the same direction at the same time and a variety of factors can affect the price of a particular company’s securities. These factors may include, but are not limited to, poor earnings reports, a loss of customers, litigation against the company, general unfavorable performance of the company’s sector or industry, or changes in government regulations affecting the company or its industry.
Risks of Foreign Investing
The Fund may make investments in non-U.S. entities, including issuers in emerging markets. The Fund expects that its investment in non-U.S. issuers will be made primarily in U.S. dollar denominated securities, but it reserves the right to purchase securities that are foreign currency denominated. Some non-U.S. securities may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.
Real Assets Investments Risk
The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities and credit instruments associated with real assets, including infrastructure and aviation, which have historically experienced substantial price volatility. The value of companies engaged in these industries is affected by (i) changes in general economic and market conditions; (ii) changes in environmental, governmental and other regulations; (iii) risks related to local economic conditions, overbuilding and increased competition; (iv) increases in property taxes and operating expenses; (v) changes in zoning laws; (vi) casualty and condemnation losses; (vii) surplus capacity and depletion concerns; (viii) the availability of financing; and (ix) changes in interest rates and leverage. In addition, the availability of attractive financing and refinancing typically plays a critical role in the success of these investments. As a result, such investments are subject to credit risk because borrowers may be delinquent in payment or default. Borrower delinquency and default rates may be significantly higher than estimated. The Adviser’s assessment, or a rating agency’s assessment, of borrower credit quality may prove to be overly optimistic. The value of securities in these
41
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
industries may go through cycles of relative under-performance and over-performance in comparison to equity securities markets in general.
Real Estate Investments Risk
The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities and credit instruments of companies in the real estate industry, which has historically experienced substantial price volatility. The value of companies engaged in the real estate industry is affected by (i) changes in general economic and market conditions; (ii) changes in the value of real estate properties; (iii) risks related to local economic conditions, overbuilding and increased competition; (iv) increases in property taxes and operating expenses; (v) changes in zoning laws; (vi) casualty and condemnation losses; (vii) variations in rental income, neighborhood values or the appeal of property to tenants; (viii) the availability of financing and (ix) changes in interest rates and leverage. In addition, the availability of attractive financing and refinancing typically plays a critical role in the success of real estate investments. As a result, such investments are subject to credit risk because borrowers may be delinquent in payment or default. Borrower delinquency and default rates may be significantly higher than estimated. The Adviser’s assessment, or a rating agency’s assessment, of borrower credit quality may prove to be overly optimistic. The value of securities in this industry may go through cycles of relative under-performance and over-performance in comparison to equity securities markets in general.
Market Risks
The success of the Fund’s activities will be affected by general economic and market conditions, such as interest rates, availability of credit, credit defaults, inflation rates, economic uncertainty, changes in laws (including laws relating to taxation of the Fund’s investments), trade barriers, currency exchange controls, disease outbreaks, pandemics, and national and international political, environmental and socioeconomic circumstances (including wars, terrorist acts or security operations).
Current and historic market turmoil has illustrated that market environments may, at any time, be characterized by uncertainty, volatility and instability. For example, the outbreak of COVID-19 is causing materially reduced consumer demand and economic output, disrupting supply chains, resulting in market closures, travel restrictions and quarantines, and adversely impacting local and global economies. As with other serious economic disruptions, governmental authorities and regulators are responding to this crisis with significant fiscal and monetary policy changes, including by providing direct capital infusions into companies, introducing new monetary programs and considerably lowering interest rates, which, in some cases resulted in negative interest rates.
COVID-19 Pandemic Risk
While several countries, as well as certain states in the United States, have relaxed public health restrictions with a view to partially or fully reopening their economies, recurring COVID-19 outbreaks have led to the re-introduction of such restrictions in certain states in the United States and globally and could continue to lead to the re-introduction of such restrictions elsewhere. These continued travel restrictions may prolong the global economic downturn. The absence or delay of viable treatment options or a widely available vaccine could lead people to continue to self-isolate and not participate in the economy at pre-pandemic levels for a prolonged period of time. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, the U.S. economy and most other major global economies may continue to experience a recession, and we anticipate our business and operations could be materially adversely affected by a prolonged recession in the U.S. and other major markets. Some economists and major investment banks have expressed concerns that the continued spread of the virus globally could lead to a world-wide economic downturn.
Further, from an operational perspective, the Adviser’s investment professionals are currently working remotely. An extended period of remote work arrangements could strain our business continuity plans, introduce operational risk, including but not limited to cybersecurity risks, and impair our ability to manage our business. In addition, we are highly dependent on third party service providers for certain communication and information systems. As a result, we rely upon the successful implementation and execution of the business continuity planning of such providers in the current environment. If one or more of these third parties to whom we outsource certain
42
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
critical business activities experience operational failures as a result of the impacts from the spread of COVID-19, or claim that they cannot perform due to a force majeure, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.
Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2021, on a fair value basis, approximately 8.6% of the Fund’s debt investments bear interest at a fixed rate and approximately 91.4% of the Fund’s debt investments bear interest at a floating rate, which primarily are subject to interest rate floors. Interest rates on the investments held within the Fund’s portfolio of investments are typically based on floating LIBOR, with many of these investments also having a LIBOR floor. Additionally, the Fund’s credit facilities are also subject to floating interest rates and are currently paid based on floating LIBOR and EURIBOR rates.
General interest rate fluctuations and changes in credit spreads on floating rate loans may have a substantial negative impact on the Fund’s investments and investment opportunities and, accordingly, may have a material adverse effect on the Fund’s rate of return on invested capital, the Fund’s net investment income and the Fund’s NAV.
The Fund is exposed to medium to long-term spread duration securities. Longer spread duration securities have a greater adverse price impact to increases in interest rates.
The Adviser regularly measures exposure to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is assessed on an ongoing basis by comparing the Fund’s interest rate sensitive assets to its interest rate sensitive liabilities. Based on that review, the Adviser determines whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates.
Payment-in-Kind (“PIK”) Interest Risk
The Fund may hold investments that result in PIK interest. PIK creates the risk that incentive fees will be paid to the Adviser based on non-cash accruals that ultimately may not be realized, while the Adviser will be under no obligation to reimburse the Fund for these fees. PIK interest has the effect of generating investment income at a compounding rate, thereby further increasing the incentive fees payable to the Adviser. Similarly, all things being equal, the deferral associated with PIK interest also increases the loan-to-value ratio at a compounding rate. The market prices of PIK securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of interest-bearing securities and are likely to respond to a greater degree to changes in interest rates than interest-bearing securities having similar maturities and credit quality. Because PIK interest results in an increase in the size of the PIK securities held, the Fund’s exposure to potential losses increases when a security pays PIK interest.
Unitranche Loans
Unitranche loans provide leverage levels comparable to a combination of first lien and second lien or subordinated loans. From the perspective of a lender, in addition to making a single loan, a unitranche loan may allow the lender to choose to participate in the “first out” tranche, which will generally receive priority with respect to payments of principal, interest and any other amounts due, or to choose to participate only in the “last out” tranche, which is generally paid after the “first out” tranche is paid. The Fund intends to participate in “first out” and “last out” tranches of unitranche loans and make single unitranche loans.
Risks Associated with Changes in LIBOR
On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. It is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after 2021. The administrator of LIBOR has announced that it will consult on its intention to cease the publication of the one week and two month LIBOR settings immediately following the LIBOR publication on December 31, 2021, and the remaining U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings
43
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
immediately following the LIBOR publication on June 30, 2023. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of any such changes, any establishment of alternative reference rates or any other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. It is possible that banks will not continue to provide submissions for the calculation of LIBOR. Similarly, it is not possible to predict whether LIBOR will continue to be viewed as an acceptable market benchmark, what rate or rates may become accepted alternatives to LIBOR, or what the effect of any such changes in views or alternatives may have on the financial markets for LIBOR-linked financial instruments.
To identify a successor rate for U.S. dollar LIBOR, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC"), a U.S.-based group convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, was formed. Financial regulators in the United Kingdom, the European Union, Japan and Switzerland also formed working groups with the aim of recommending alternatives to LIBOR denominated in their local currencies. The ARRC has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as its preferred alternative rate for LIBOR. SOFR is a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions. Although SOFR appears to be the preferred replacement rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR, it is unclear if other benchmarks may emerge or if other rates will be adopted outside the U.S.
The expected discontinuance of LIBOR may require the Fund to renegotiate credit agreements entered into prior to the discontinuation of LIBOR and extending beyond 2021 with our portfolio companies that utilize LIBOR as a factor in determining the interest rate, in order to replace LIBOR with the new standard that is established, which may have an adverse effect on our ability to receive attractive returns.
In addition, if LIBOR ceases to exist, the Fund may need to renegotiate certain terms of the credit facilities. If the Fund is unable to do so, amounts outstanding under the credit facilities may bear interest at a higher rate, which would increase the cost of our borrowings and, in turn, affect our return on capital.
Depending on several factors, including those set forth above, and the related costs of negotiating and documenting necessary changes to documentation, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely impacted by the market transition or reform of certain reference rates and benchmarks. Other factors include the pace of the transition to replacement or reformed rates, the specific terms and parameters for and market acceptance of any alternative reference rates, prices and liquidity of trading markets for products based on alternative reference rates, and our ability to transition and develop appropriate systems and analytics for one or more alternative reference rates.
Credit Risk
Credit risk relates to the ability of the borrower under an instrument to make interest and principal payments as they become due. The Fund’s investments in loans and other debt instruments are subject to risk of missing an interest and/or principal payment.
Credit Spread Risk
Credit spread risk is the risk that credit spreads (i.e., the difference in yield between securities that is due to differences in their credit quality) may increase when the market expects below-investment-grade bonds to default more frequently. Widening credit spreads may quickly reduce the market values of below-investment-grade and unrated securities. The U.S. capital markets experienced extreme volatility and disruption following the spread of COVID-19, which increased the spread between yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets. Central banks and governments played a key role in reintroducing liquidity to parts of the capital markets. Future exits of these financial institutions from the market may reintroduce temporary illiquidity. These and future market disruptions and/or illiquidity would be expected to have an adverse effect on the Fund’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
44
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
Prepayment Risk
Prepayment risk relates to the early repayment of principal on a loan or debt security. Loans are generally callable at any time, and certain loans may be callable at any time at no premium to par. Having the loan or other debt instrument called early may have the effect of reducing the Fund’s actual investment income below its expected investment income if the capital returned cannot be invested in transactions with equal or greater yields.
Volatility Risk
Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
Equity Risk
Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
6. BORROWINGS
In accordance with the Investment Company Act, the Fund is currently only allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 300% after such borrowing. As of June 30, 2021, asset coverage was 467%. The SPV is party to the JPM Credit Facility and, until its termination on May 5, 2021, the SPV was party to the SPV Credit Facility described below.
SPV Credit Facility
The SPV closed on the SPV Credit Facility on June 28, 2018. The SPV Credit Facility had a maturity date of June 28, 2021. On May 5, 2021, the SPV repaid all outstanding amounts under the SPV Credit Facility and the facility was terminated. The SPV Credit Facility provided for secured borrowings during the applicable revolving period up to an amount equal to the lesser of $150,000,000 commitment and the borrowing base subject to the amount of restricted cash held at the Cash Collateral Accounts and the pledged assets. Borrowings under the SPV Credit Facility bore interest based on the applicable LIBOR base rate plus a spread between 1.40% and 1.85% per year depending on tenor and currency. The SPV was also required to pay an undrawn commitment fee of between 0.25% and 0.50% per year depending on the drawings under the SPV Credit Facility and a structuring commitment fee of 0.175% per year depending on the SPV Credit Facility’s commitment. Payments under the SPV Credit Facility were made monthly for interest and quarterly for commitment fees. The lenders had a first lien security interest on substantially all of the assets of the SPV.
JPM Credit Facility
The SPV closed on the JPM Credit Facility on May 5, 2021, which was subsequently amended on May 14, 2021. The maximum principal amount of the JPM Credit Facility is $250,000,000, subject to availability under the JPM Credit Facility, which is based on certain advance rates multiplied by the value of the SPV’s portfolio investments (subject to certain concentration limitations) net of certain other indebtedness that the SPV may incur in accordance with the terms of the JPM Credit Facility. Proceeds of the JPM Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. The SPV may borrow amounts in U.S. dollars or
45
CARLYLE TACTICAL PRIVATE CREDIT FUND
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
certain other permitted currencies. Amounts drawn under the JPM Credit Facility, including amounts drawn in respect of letters of credit, bear interest at either the applicable benchmark plus an applicable spread of 2.05%, or an applicable base rate (which is the highest of a prime rate or the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%) plus an applicable spread of 2.05%. The Fund may elect either the applicable benchmark or the applicable base rate at the time of drawdown, and loans may be converted from one rate to another, subject to certain conditions. The SPV also pays a fee of 0.50% on undrawn amounts under the JPM Credit Facility and, in respect of each undrawn letter of credit, a fee and interest rate equal to the then-applicable margin under the JPM Credit Facility while the letter of credit is outstanding. The reinvestment period under the JPM Credit Facility will terminate on May 5, 2024 and the JPM Credit Facility will mature on May 5, 2025. During the period from May 5, 2024 to May 5, 2025, the SPV will be obligated to make mandatory prepayments under the JPM Credit Facility out of the proceeds of certain asset sales, other recovery events and equity and debt issuances.
Subject to certain exceptions, the JPM Credit Facility is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of the portfolio investments held by the SPV. The JPM Credit Facility includes customary covenants, including certain financial covenants related to asset coverage, shareholders’ equity and liquidity, certain limitations on the occurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, and other maintenance covenants, as well as usual and customary events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature. As of June 30, 2021, the SPV was in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the JPM Credit Facility.
The JPM Credit Facility consisted of the following as of June 30, 2021:
June 30, 2021 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Total Facility | Borrowings Outstanding | Unused Portion (1) | Amount Available (2) | ||||||||||||||||||||
JPM Credit Facility | $ | 250,000,000 | $ | 136,525,371 | $ | 113,474,629 | $ | 60,844,805 |
(1) The unused portion is the Total Facility less Borrowings Outstanding, an amount upon which commitment fees are based depending on daily spot and contract rates for EUR and GBP.
(2) Available for borrowing is based on the computation of collateral to support the borrowings and is subject to compliance with applicable covenants and financial ratios.
As of June 30, 2021, $407,731 of interest expense and $56,612 of unused commitment fees were included in interest payable on borrowings.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2021, there were secured borrowings of $222,487,259 and repayments of $156,550,575 under the SPV Credit Facility and JPM Credit Facility.

The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former Trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered to be remote.

9. LITIGATION
The Fund may become party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. The Fund does not believe that the outcome of current matters, if any, will materially impact the Fund or its consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2021, the Fund was not subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to the Fund’s knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against the Fund.
In addition, portfolio investments of the Fund could be the subject of litigation or regulatory investigations in the ordinary course of business. The Fund does not believe that the outcome of any current contingent liabilities of its portfolio investments, if any, will materially affect the Fund or these consolidated financial statements.
10. TAX
The Fund has not recorded a liability for any uncertain tax positions pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, as of June 30, 2021.
In the normal course of business, the Fund is subject to examination by federal and certain state, local and foreign tax regulators. As of June 30, 2021, the Fund had filed tax returns and therefore is subject to examination.
The Fund’s taxable income for each period is an estimate and will not be finally determined until the Fund files its tax return for each year. Therefore, the final taxable income, and the taxable income earned in each period and carried forward for distribution in the following period, may be different than this estimate. For the six month period ended June 30, 2021 the Fund made distributions of $12,346,690, in which the final tax character of income will be determined at year end.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes at period end are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the partnerships and non-deductible expenses adjustments.
For the Period Ended June 30, 2021 | |||||
Federal tax cost of securities | $ | 630,400,450 | |||
Gross unrealized appreciation | $ | 11,186,078 | |||

PORTFOLIO PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES; UPDATES TO STATEMENTS OF INVESTMENTS (Unaudited)
The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and Guidelines whereby it has delegated the responsibility for voting proxies relating to portfolio securities held by the Fund (“portfolio proxies”) to the Adviser as part of the Adviser's general management of the Fund's portfolio, subject to the continuing oversight of the Board. The Adviser votes portfolio proxies in accordance with its proxy voting policies and procedures, which are reviewed periodically by the Adviser and the Independent Trustees and, accordingly, are subject to change.
The right to vote a portfolio proxy is an asset of the Fund. The Adviser acts as a fiduciary of the Fund and must vote portfolio proxies in a manner consistent with the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders. As part of this duty, the Adviser recognizes that it must vote portfolio proxies in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in what it perceives to be the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
The Adviser’s proxy voting decisions will be made by its investment committee. The Adviser will review on a case-by-case basis each proposal submitted to a stockholder vote to determine its impact on the portfolio securities held by the Fund. Although the Adviser will generally vote against proposals that may have a negative impact on Fund portfolio securities, it may vote for such a proposal if there exist compelling long-term reasons to do so.
To ensure that the vote is not the product of a conflict of interest, the Adviser requires that: (1) anyone involved in the decision making process disclose to the Adviser’s investment committee, any potential conflict that he or she is aware of and any contact that he or she has had with any interested party regarding a proxy vote; and (2) employees involved in the decision making process or vote administration are prohibited from revealing how the Adviser intends to vote on a proposal in order to reduce any attempted influence from interested parties.
The Fund and Adviser’s policies and procedures collectively describe how the Fund votes portfolio proxies. A summary description of the Fund and Adviser’s proxy voting policies and procedures is available (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund toll-free at (833) 677-3646, and (ii) on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the Fund is required to file Form N-PX, with its complete proxy voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later than August 31st of each year. The Fund’s voting record is available (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund toll-free at (833) 677-3646, and (ii) in the Form N-PX filing on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first quarter and the third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT. The Fund’s Form N-PORT filings are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
