2Nuveen Churchill Direct Lending Corp. Disclaimer This presentation is for informational purposes only. It does not convey an offer of any type and is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities of Nuveen Churchill Direct Lending Corp. (the “Company,” “NCDLC,” “we,” “us” or “our”). Any such offering can be made only at the time an offeree receives a prospectus relating to such offering and other operative documents which contain significant details with respect to risks and should be carefully read. In addition, the information in this presentation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed discussions contained in the Company’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including without limitation, the risk factors. Nothing in this presentation constitutes investment advice. You or your clients may lose money by investing in the Company. The Company is not intended to be a complete investment program and, due to the uncertainty inherent in all investments, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its investment objective. The information contained herein is not intended to provide, and should not be relied upon for, accounting, legal or tax advice or investment recommendations. Prospective investors should also seek advice from their own independent tax, accounting, financial, investment and legal advisors to properly assess the merits and risks associated with an investment in the Company in light of their own financial condition and other circumstances. These materials and the presentations of which they are a part, and the summaries contained herein, do not purport to be complete and no obligation to update or otherwise revise such information is being assumed. Nothing shall be relied upon as a promise or representation as to the future performance of the Company. Such information is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed discussions contained elsewhere in the Company’s public filings with the SEC. An investment in the Company is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. There can be no guarantee that the Company’s investment objective will be achieved. The Company may engage in other investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss. An investor could lose all or substantially all of his, her or its investment. The Company may not provide periodic valuation information to investors, and there may be delays in distributing important tax information. The Company’s fees and expenses may be considered high and, as a result, such fees and expenses may offset the Company’s profits. For a summary of certain of these and other risks, please see the Company’s public filings with the SEC. There is no guarantee that any of the estimates, targets or projections illustrated in these materials and any presentation of which they form a part will be achieved. Any references herein to any of the Company’s past or present investments or its past or present performance, have been provided for illustrative purposes only. It should not be assumed that these investments were or will be profitable or that any future investments by the Company will be profitable or will equal the performance of these investments. Diversification of an investor’s portfolio does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market. Opinions expressed reflect the current opinions of the Company as of the date appearing in the materials only and are based on the Company’s opinions of the current market environment, which is subject to change. Certain information contained in the materials discusses general market activity, industry or sector trends, or other broad-based economic, market or political conditions and should not be construed as research or investment advice. There can be no assurances that any of the trends described herein will continue or will not reverse. Past events and trends do not imply, predict or guarantee, and are not necessarily indicative of, future events or results. This presentation includes forward-looking statements about NCDL that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: changes in the financial, capital, and lending markets; general economic, political and industry trends and other external factors, and the dependence of NCDL’s future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which it invests; and other risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in NCDL’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date on which NCDL makes them. NCDL does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law. We have based the forward-looking statements included in this presentation on information available to us on the date of this presentation, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward- looking statements. Should NCDL’s estimates, projections and assumptions or these other uncertainties and factors materialize in ways that NCDL did not expect, actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this presentation. All capitalized terms in the presentation have the same definitions as the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Please see Endnotes at the end of this presentation for additional important information.

20Nuveen Churchill Direct Lending Corp. Endnotes Note: All information is as of March 31, 2024, unless otherwise noted. Numbers may not sum due to rounding. 1 Per share Net Investment Income, Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses) and Net Income (Loss) data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended period. Refer to the Quarterly Operating Results, page 18, for weighted average shares outstanding for the period. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. 2 Annualized ROE on Net Investment Income is quarterly Net Investment Income divided by quarter-end net asset value annualized. 3 Annualized ROE on Net Income is quarterly Net Income divided by quarter-end Net Asset value annualized. 4 Represents total investment portfolio at fair value. Total par value of debt investment commitments is $1,986M which includes approximately $179M of unfunded delayed draw term loan commitments. 5 Weighted average yield on debt and income producing investments, at fair value and cost where applicable. The weighted average yield of the Company’s debt and income producing securities is not the same as a return on investment for our shareholders but, rather, relates to our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all subsidiaries’ fees and expenses. Actual yields over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented. The weighted average yield was computed using the effective interest rates as of quarter end, including accretion of original issue discount, but excluding investments on non-accrual status, if any. There was one portfolio company on non-accrual status as of March 31, 2024. Weighted average yield inclusive of debt and income producing investments on non-accrual status, at fair as of March 31, 2024 was 11.67% 6 Reflects classification at issuance. 7 Represents the sum of the amounts available under the financing facilities and the Corporate Revolver of $432M and cash and cash equivalents of $64M. 8 Debt-to-Equity at Quarter End is the Total Debt, net of deferred financing costs, divided by Net Assets. 9 Represents the percentage of debt investments with one or more maintenance financial covenants, based on the fair value of as of March 31, 2024. 10 Net leverage is the ratio of total debt minus cash divided by EBITDA, taking into account only the debt issued through the tranche in which we are a lender Leverage is derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial statements, and weighted by the fair value of each investment as of March 31, 2024. Net leverage presented excludes equity investments as well as debt instruments to which the Adviser has assigned a risk rating of 8 or higher, and any portfolio companies with net leverage of 15 x or greater. 11 Weighted based on fair market value of private debt investments as of March 31, 2024 for which fair value is determined by the Company’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”) in its capacity as the valuation designee of the Board of Directors, and excludes quoted assets. Amounts are weighted based on fair market value of each respective investment as of its most recent quarterly valuation, which are derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial statements. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a particular portfolio company, EBITDA is generally defined as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA amounts are estimated from the most recent portfolio company financial statements, have not been independently verified by NCDL and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. Accordingly, NCDL makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information.

21Nuveen Churchill Direct Lending Corp. Note: All information is as of March 31, 2024, unless otherwise noted. Numbers may not sum due to rounding. 12 The interest coverage ratio calculation is derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial information received by the Adviser, and is a weighted average based on the fair market value of each respective first lien loan investment as of its most recent reporting to lenders. Such reporting may include assumptions regarding the impact of interest rate hedges established by borrowers to reduce their exposure to floating interest rates (resulting in a reduced hedging rate being used for the total interest expense in respect of such hedges, rather than any higher rates applicable under the documentation for such loans), even if such hedging instruments are not pledged as collateral to lenders in respect of such loans and do not secure the loans themselves. The interest rate coverage ratio excludes junior capital investments and equity co-investments, and applies solely to traditional middle market first lien loans held by NCDL, which also excludes any upper middle market or other first lien loans investments that do not have maintenance financial covenants, and first lien loans that the Adviser has assigned a risk rating of 8 or higher, as well as any portfolio companies with net senior leverage of 15x or greater. As a result of the foregoing exclusions, the interest coverage ratio shown herein applies to 73.48% of our total investments, and 82.61% of our total first lien loan investments, in each case based upon fair value as of March 31, 2024. 13 Q1’24 Annualized Dividend yield includes the Regular Distribution per share divided by the quarter end NAV per share of $18.21, annualized. 14 Regular Distribution Yield is the Regular Distribution per share declared in respect of the quarter, divided by the NAV per share as of the respective quarter end, annualized. 15 Supplemental Distribution Yield is the Supplemental Distribution per share declared in respect of the quarter, divided by the NAV per share as of the respective quarter end, annualized. 16 Special Distribution Yield is the Special Distribution per share declared in respect of the quarter, divided by the NAV per share as of the respective quarter end. 17 The Total Distribution Yield presented is the sum of the Regular Distribution per share and Supplemental Distribution per share (if any), annualized on a quarterly basis, plus any Special Distributions (if any) per share. Given the nature of Special Distributions, certain Special Distributions may be presented on a non-annualized basis. 18 Represents the total amount of cash activity for the purchase of investments and the proceeds from principal repayments and sales of investments. 19 The weighted average interest rate is calculated using the effective interest rate for floating rate and fixed rate debt investments. The effective interest rate for floating rate investments utilizes the applicable margin plus the greater of the 3-Month base rate, or base rate floor. SOFR as of March 31, 2024 was 5.30%. The effective interest rate for fixed rate investments utilizes the investment coupon. 20 The per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2024. 21 The per share data for distributions reflects the actual amount of distributions declared for the three months ended March 31, 2024. 22 Includes the impact of different share amounts used in calculating per share data as a result of calculating certain per share data based on weighted average shares outstanding during the period and certain per share data based on shares outstanding as of a period end or transaction date.Refer to footnote 20 and 21. 23 Represents the par amount of total new investment activity for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Investment activity does not include draws on existing Delayed Draw Term Loans and partial paydowns. 24 Average Spread is calculated based off of par amount. 25 Average Coupon is calculated based off of par amount. Average coupon includes 62% cash coupon and 38% PIK. Endnotes

22Nuveen Churchill Direct Lending Corp. Endnotes Note: All information is as of March 31, 2024, unless otherwise noted. Numbers may not sum due to rounding. 26 Interest rate utilizes the floating rate investment spread plus the greater of 3-Month base rate, or base rate floor, if applicable for each respective transaction SOFR as of June 30, 2023 was 5.27%, LIBOR as of June 30, 2023 was 5.55%; SOFR as of September 30, 2023 was 5.40%; SOFR as of December 31, 2023 was 5.33%; SOFR as of March 31, 2024 was 5.30%. 27 35% of first lien term loans are unitranche positions. 28 Net Interest Margin calculated as Weighted Average Yield on Debt and Income Producing Investments at Fair Value minus Average Cost of Debt. 29 Average Cost of Debt includes borrowing interest expense and unused fees. 30 Interest rates represent the weighted average spread over 3-month SOFR for the various floating rate tranches of issued notes within the CLO vehicles. The weighted average interest rate for the Churchill NCDLC CLO-I excludes tranches with a fixed interest rate. 31 The Corporate Revolver is defined as the Revolving Credit Facility in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. 32 Weighted average facility pricing spread weighted based on total commitment amount.
