1. Organization
The Cliffwater Corporate Lending Fund (the “Fund”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company operating as an interval fund. The Fund operates under an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated March 21, 2018 (the “Declaration of Trust”). Cliffwater LLC serves as the investment adviser (the “Investment Manager”) of the Fund. The Investment Manager is an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund intends to continue to qualify and has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Fund commenced operations on March 6, 2019.
The SEC has granted the Fund exemptive relief permitting the Fund to offer multiple classes of shares. The Fund’s Registration Statement allows it to offer two classes of shares, Class A Shares and Class I Shares. Only Class I shares have been issued as of September 30, 2020.
The Fund’s primary investment objective is to seek consistent current income, while the Fund’s secondary objective is capital preservation. Under normal market conditions, the Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing at least 80% of its assets (net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in loans to companies (“corporate loans”). The Fund’s corporate loan investments are made through a combination of: (i) investing in loans to companies that are originated directly by a non-bank lender (for example, traditional direct lenders include insurance companies, business development companies, asset management firms (on behalf of their investors), and specialty finance companies) (“direct loans”); (ii) investing in notes or other pass-through obligations representing the right to receive the principal and interest payments on a direct loan (or fractional portions thereof); (iii) purchasing asset-backed securities representing ownership or participation in a pool of direct loans; (iv) investing in companies and/or private investment funds (private funds that are excluded from the definition of "investment company" pursuant to Sections 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act) that primarily hold direct loans (the foregoing investments listed in clauses (i) through (iv) are collectively referred to herein as the “Direct Loan Instruments”); (v) investments in high yield securities, including securities representing ownership or participation in a pool of such securities; and (vi) investments in bank loans including securities representing ownership or participation in a pool of such loans. The Fund may focus its investment strategy on, and its portfolio of investments may be focused in, a subset of one or more of these types of investments. The Fund’s investments in hedge funds and private equity funds that are excluded from the definition of "investment company" pursuant to Sections 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act will be limited to no more than 15% of the Fund’s assets. Most direct loans are not rated by any rating agency, will not be registered with the SEC or any state securities commission and will not be listed on any national securities exchange. The amount of public information available with respect to issuers of direct loans may generally be less extensive than that available for issuers of registered or exchange listed securities. If they were rated, direct loans likely would be rated as below investment grade quality, often referred to as “junk” loans.
(a) Consolidation of Subsidiary
On February 3, 2020, CCLF SPV LLC ("CCLF SPV”) was formed as a limited liability company, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Fund. The consolidated Schedule of Investments of the Fund include the accounts of CCLF SPV. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation for the Fund.
2. Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation and Use of Estimates
The Fund is an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS
September 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
Loan Participations and Assignments
The Fund may acquire interests in loans either directly (by way of original issuance, sale or assignment) or indirectly (by way of participation). The purchaser of an assignment typically succeeds to all the rights and obligations of the assigning institution and becomes a lender under the credit agreement with respect to the debt obligation; however, its rights can be more restricted than those of the assigning institution. Participation interests in a portion of a debt obligation typically result in a contractual relationship only with the institution participating out the interest, not with the borrower. In purchasing participations, the Fund generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement, nor any rights of set-off against the borrower, and the Fund may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting the debt obligation in which it has purchased the participation. As a result, the Fund will assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the institution selling the participation.
Commitments and Contingencies
Commercial loans purchased by the Fund (whether through participations or as a lender of record) may be structured to include both term loans, which are generally fully funded at the time of investment, and unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. Unfunded loan commitments may include revolving credit facilities and delayed draw term loans, which may obligate the Fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand, representing a potential financial obligation by the Fund in the future. The Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of such unfunded loan commitments. Commitment fees are processed as a reduction in cost of the loans. As of September 30, 2020, the Fund had the following unfunded loan commitments as noted in the consolidated Schedule of Investments with a total principal amount of $10,140,694.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements
In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund delivers a security in exchange for cash to a financial institution, the counterparty, with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same or substantially the same security at an agreed upon price and date. In an open maturity reverse repurchase agreement, there is no pre-determined repurchase date and the agreement can be terminated by the Fund or counterparty at any time. The Fund is entitled to receive principal and interest payments, if any, made on the security delivered to the counterparty during the term of the agreement. Cash received in exchange for securities delivered and accrued interest payments to be made by the Fund to counterparties are reflected as liabilities on the consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Interest payments made by the Fund to counterparties are recorded as interest from reverse repurchase agreements on the consolidated Statement of Operations. In periods of increased demand for the security, the Fund may receive a fee for use of the security by the counterparty, which may result in interest income to the Fund. In the event the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund’s use of the proceeds of the agreement may be restricted pending a determination by the other party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities. Reverse repurchase agreements involve leverage risk and also the risk that the market value of the securities to be repurchased may decline below the repurchase price.
Master Repurchase Agreements and Global Master Repurchase Agreements (individually and collectively “Master Repo Agreements”) govern repurchase, reverse repurchase, and certain sale-buyback transactions between the Fund and select counterparties. Master Repo Agreements maintain provisions for, among other things, initiation, income payments, events of default, and maintenance of collateral. The value of transactions under the Master Repo Agreement, collateral pledged or received, and the net exposure by counterparty as of period end are disclosed in the consolidated Schedule of Investments and note #3 thereto. For the period ended September 30, 2020, the average balance outstanding and weighted average interest rate were $9,673,533 and 2.82%, respectively.

Federal Income Taxes
The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As so qualified, the Fund will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management of the Fund is required to determine whether a tax position taken by the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, based on the technical merits of the position. Based on its analysis, there were no tax positions identified by management of the Fund that did not meet the “more likely than not” standard as of September 30, 2020.
3. Fair Value of Investments
Fair value - Definition
The Fund uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| • | Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. |
| • | Level 2 – Valuations based on inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. |
| • | Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are both significant and unobservable to the overall fair value measurement. |
Investments in private investment funds measured based upon Net Asset Value (“NAV”) as a practical expedient to determine fair value are not required to be categorized in the fair value hierarchy.
The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a wide variety of factors, including type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, determining fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainly of valuation, estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Investment Manager in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3.
