CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and undue reliance should not be placed thereon. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about Owl Rock Core Income Corp. (the “Company,” “we” or “our”), our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs and opinions, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “may,” “continue,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” “outlook,” “potential,” “predicts” 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 and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation:
Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These forward-looking statements apply only as of the date of this report. Moreover, we assume no duty and do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements. Because we are an investment company, the forward-looking statements and projections contained in this report are excluded from the safe harbor protection provided by Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1. Organization and Principal Business
Owl Rock Core Income Corp., (“Owl Rock” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation formed on April 22, 2020. The Company was formed primarily to originate and make loans to, and make debt and equity investments in, U.S. middle market companies. The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. The Company invests in senior secured or unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, equity and equity-related securities which include common and preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock, and warrants. The Company may on occasion invest in smaller or larger companies if an attractive opportunity presents itself, especially when there are dislocations in the capital markets, including the high yield and large syndicated loan markets, which are often referred to as “junk” investments. Once the Company raises sufficient capital, the target credit investments will typically have maturities between three and ten years and generally range in size between $10 million and $125 million, although the investment size will vary with the size of the Company’s capital base. Prior to raising sufficient capital, the Company may make a greater number of investments in syndicated loan opportunities than it otherwise would expect to make in the future.
The Company is an externally managed closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Because the Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC and as a RIC under the Code, the Company’s portfolio is subject to diversification and other requirements.
In November 2020, the Company commenced operations and made its first portfolio company investment. On October 23, 2020, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, OR Lending IC LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which holds a California finance lenders license. OR Lending IC LLC makes loans to borrowers headquartered in California. From time to time the Company may form wholly-owned subsidiaries to facilitate the normal course of business.
The Company is managed by Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”). The Adviser is an indirect subsidiary of Blue Owl Capital, Inc. (“Blue Owl) (NYSE: OWL) and part of Owl Rock, a division of Blue Owl focused on direct lending. The Adviser is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”). Subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s Board, the Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory and management services to, the Company.
The Company has received an exemptive order that permits it to offer multiple classes of shares of common stock and to impose asset-based servicing and distribution fees and early withdrawal fees. The Company offers on a best efforts, continuous basis up to $2,500,000,000 in any combination of amount of shares of Class S, Class D, and Class I common stock. The share classes have different upfront selling commissions and ongoing servicing fees. Each class of common stock is offered through Blue Owl Securities LLC (formerly Owl Rock Capital Securities LLC) (d/b/a "Blue Owl Securities") (the “Dealer Manager”). The Dealer Manager is entitled to receive upfront selling commissions of up to 3.50% of the offering price of each Class S share sold in the offering and 1.50% of the offering price of each Class D share sold in the offering. Class I shares are not subject to upfront selling commissions. Any upfront selling commissions for the Class S shares and Class D shares sold in the offering will be deducted from the purchase price. Class S, Class D and Class I shares were offered at initial purchase prices per shares of $10.35, $10.15 and $10.00, respectively. Currently, the purchase price per share for each class of common stock varies, but will not be sold at a price below the Company’s net asset value per share of such class, as determined in accordance with the Company’s share pricing policy, plus applicable upfront selling commissions. On October 7, 2021, the Company filed a registration statement with respect to its proposed follow-on offering of up to $7,500,000,000 in any combination of shares of Class S, Class D and Class I common stock.
On September 30, 2020, the Adviser purchased 100 shares of the Company’s Class I common stock at $10.00 per share, which represented the initial public offering price of such shares. The Adviser will not tender these shares for repurchase as long as Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC remains the investment adviser of Owl Rock Core Income Corp. There is no current intention for Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC to discontinue its role. On October 15, 2020, the Company received a subscription agreement, totaling $25.0 million for the purchase of Class I common shares of its common stock from Owl Rock Feeder FIC ORCIC Equity LLC (“Feeder FIC Equity”). The shares purchased by the Adviser and Feeder FIC Equity are subject to a lock-up pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1) for a period of 180 days from the date of commencement of sales in the offering, and the Adviser, Feeder FIC Equity, and their permitted assigns may not engage in any transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the Class I shares.

Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
The Company commenced a continuous public offering of up to $2,500,000,000 in any combination of Class S, Class D, and Class I shares of its common stock on November 12, 2020. On November 12, 2020, the Company sold 700,000 shares pursuant to the subscription agreement with Feeder FIC Equity and met the minimum offering requirement for its continuous public offering of $2.5 million. The purchase price of these shares sold in the private placement was $10.00 per share. Since meeting the minimum offering requirement and commencing its continuous public offering through September 30, 2021, the Company has issued 17,515,705 shares of Class S common stock, 7,103,293 shares of Class D common stock and 42,810,584 shares of Class I common stock for gross proceeds of $164.9 million, $66.0 million and $398.6 million, respectively, including $1,000 of seed capital contributed by its Adviser in September 2020 and approximately $25.0 million in gross proceeds raised in the private placement from Feeder FIC Equity.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company is an investment company and, therefore, applies the specialized accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements, have been included. The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity 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 consolidated financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Cash
Cash consists of deposits held at a custodian bank. Cash is carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company deposits its cash with highly-rated banking corporations and, at times, may exceed the insured limits under applicable law.
Investments at Fair Value
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds received and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at the bid price of those market quotations. To validate market quotations, the Company utilizes a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of the quotations. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available, as is the case for substantially all of the Company’s investments, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, based on, among other things, the input of the Adviser, the Company’s audit committee, and independent third-party valuation firm(s) engaged at the direction of the Board.
As part of the valuation process, the Board takes into account relevant factors in determining the fair value of the Company’s investments, including: the estimated enterprise value of a portfolio company (i.e., the total fair value of the portfolio company’s debt and equity), the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments based on its earnings and cash flow, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, a comparison of the portfolio company’s securities to any similar publicly traded securities, and overall changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that may affect the price at which similar investments may be made in the future. When an external event such as a purchase or sale transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Board considers whether the pricing indicated by the external event corroborates its valuation.
20
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
The Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process, which includes, among other procedures, the following:
The Company conducts this valuation process on a quarterly basis.
The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB”) 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company considers its principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:
Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurs. In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, the Company applies the valuation policy approved by its Board that is consistent with ASC 820. Consistent with the valuation policy, the Company evaluates the source of the inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value. When an investment is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (such as broker quotes), the Company subjects those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for treatment as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. For example, the Company, or the independent valuation firm(s), reviews pricing support provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs.
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 Company’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be realized. Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may be subject to contractual and other restrictions on resale. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, it could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences 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 gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected herein.
Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act was recently adopted by the SEC and establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. We intend to comply with the new rule`s requirements on or before the compliance date in September 2022.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of discounts or premiums. Certain investments may have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK interest and dividends represent accrued interest or dividends that are added to the principal amount or liquidation amount of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or at the occurrence of a liquidation event. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, PIK interest and PIK dividend income earned was $1.1 million and $1.3 million, representing 7.0% and 6.8% of investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Discounts to par value on securities purchased are amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective security using the effective yield method. Premiums to par value on securities purchased are amortized to first call date. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts or premiums, if any. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income in the current period.
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued 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. If at any point we believe PIK interest is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK interest will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest income. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of September 30, 2021, no investments are on non-accrual status.
Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies.
Other Income
From time to time, the Company may receive fees for services provided to portfolio companies. These fees are generally only available to the Company as a result of closing investments, are normally paid at the closing of the investments, are generally non-recurring, and are recognized as revenue when earned upon closing of the investment. The services that the Adviser provides vary by investment, but can include closing, work, diligence or other similar fees and fees for providing managerial assistance to our portfolio companies.
Organization Expenses
Costs associated with the organization of the Company are expensed as incurred. These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs of organizing the Company.
Offering Expenses
Costs associated with the offering of common shares of the Company are capitalized as deferred offering expenses and are included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are amortized over a twelve-month period from incurrence. These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs incurred in connection with the Company’s continuous public offering of its common shares, the preparation of the Company’s registration statement, and registration fees.
Debt Issuance Costs
The Company records origination and other expenses related to its debt obligations as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized over the life of the related debt instrument. Debt issuance costs are presented on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a direct deduction from the debt liability. In circumstances in which there is not an associated debt liability amount recorded in the consolidated financial statements when the debt issuance costs are incurred, such debt issuance costs will be reported on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset until the debt liability is recorded.

Reimbursement of Transaction-Related Expenses
The Company may receive reimbursement for certain transaction-related expenses in pursuing investments. Transaction-related expenses, which are generally expected to be reimbursed by the Company’s portfolio companies, are typically deferred until the transaction is consummated and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on the date incurred. The costs of successfully completed investments not otherwise reimbursed are borne by the Company and are included as a component of the investment’s cost basis.
Cash advances received in respect of transaction-related expenses are recorded as cash with an offset to accrued expenses and other liabilities. Accrued expenses and other liabilities are relieved as reimbursable expenses are incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2020 and intends to qualify as a RIC thereafter. So long as the Company obtains and maintains its tax treatment for tax treatment as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its shareholders as dividends. Instead, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Company’s investors and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
To qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Company must distribute to its shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income” for that year, which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses. In order for the Company not to be subject to U.S. federal excise taxes, it must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any net ordinary income and capital gains in excess of capital losses for preceding years that were not distributed during such years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on this income.
The Company 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. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. There were no material uncertain income tax positions as of December 31, 2020. The 2020 tax year remains subject to examination by U.S. federal, state and local tax authorities.
Income and Expense Allocations
Income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses are allocated to each class of shares of the Company on the basis of the aggregate net asset value of that class in relation to the aggregate net asset value of the Company.
Expenses that are common to all share classes are borne by each class of shares based on the net assets of the Company attributable to each class. Expenses that are specific to a class of shares are allocated to such class either directly or through the servicing fees paid pursuant to the Company’s distribution plan. “See Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions – Shareholder Servicing Plan.”
Distributions to Common Shareholders
Distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the record date. The amount to be distributed is determined by the Board and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by the Adviser. Net realized long-term capital gains, if any, would be generally distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
Subject to the Company’s board of directors’ discretion and applicable legal restrictions, the Company intends to authorize and declare cash distributions to the Company’s shareholders on a monthly or quarterly basis and pay such distributions on a monthly
23

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
basis. The per share amount of distributions for Class S, Class D, and Class I shares will differ because of different allocations of class-specific expenses. Specifically, because the ongoing servicing fees are calculated based on the Company’s net asset value for the Company’s Class S and Class D shares, the ongoing service fees will reduce the net asset value or, alternatively, the distributions payable, with respect to the shares of each such class, including shares issued under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. As a result, the distributions on Class S shares and Class D shares may be lower than the distributions on Class I shares.
The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which shareholders (except for residents of Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Vermont and Washington and clients of participating broker-dealers that do not permit automatic enrollment in the distribution reinvestment plan) will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company's same class of common stock to which the distribution relates unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash. The Company expects to use newly issued shares to implement the distribution reinvestment plan.
Consolidation
As provided under Regulation S-X and ASC Topic 946 - Financial Services - Investment Companies, the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than a wholly-owned investment company or controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the accounts of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries in its consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
New Accounting Pronouncements
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 London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” which expanded the scope of Topic 848 to include derivative instruments impacted by discounting transition. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. ASU No. 2021-01 provides increased clarity as the Company continues to evaluate the transition of reference rates and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2020-04 and 2021-01 on the consolidated financial statements.
Other than the aforementioned guidance, the Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had payables to affiliates of $6.0 million, primarily comprised of $2.7 million in costs and expenses reimbursable to the Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, $1.5 million of accrued performance based incentive fees, $0.4 million of management fees, $0.5 million in obligations to repay expense support from the Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, and costs and expenses reimbursable to the Adviser pursuant to the Administration Agreement. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had payables to affiliates of $0.2 million primarily comprised of amounts reimbursable to the Adviser pursuant to the Administration Agreement.
Administration Agreement
The Company has entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with the Adviser. Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Adviser performs, or oversees the performance of, required administrative services, which include providing office space, equipment and office services, maintaining financial records, preparing reports to shareholders and reports filed with the SEC, and managing the payment of expenses, and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered by others.
The Administration Agreement also provides that the Company reimburses the Adviser for certain organization costs incurred prior to the commencement of the Company’s operations, and for certain offering costs.
24
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
The Company reimburses the Adviser for services performed for it pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Adviser may delegate its obligations under the Administration Agreement to an affiliate or to a third party and the Company will reimburse the Adviser for any services performed for it by such affiliate or third party.
Unless earlier terminated as described below, the Administration Agreement, and subject to the consummation of the Transaction, the amended and restated administration agreement, will remain in effect until September 30, 2022 and from year to year thereafter if approved annually by a majority of the Board or by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting securities and, in each case, a majority of the independent directors. The Administration Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice, by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (as defined in the 1940 Act), or by the vote of a majority of the Board or by the Adviser.
No person who is an officer, director, or employee of the Adviser or its affiliates and who serves as a director of the Company receives any compensation from the Company for his or her services as a director. However, the Company reimburses the Adviser (or its affiliates) for an allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser or its affiliates to the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer, Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs (based on the percentage of time those individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business and affairs of the Company). Directors who are not affiliated with the Adviser receive compensation for their services and reimbursement of expenses incurred to attend meetings.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $0.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for costs and expenses reimbursable to the Adviser under the terms of the Administration Agreement.
Investment Advisory Agreement
The Company has entered into an amended and restated Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with the Adviser. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is responsible for managing the Company’s business and activities, including sourcing investment opportunities, conducting research, performing diligence on potential investments, structuring its investments, and monitoring its portfolio companies on an ongoing basis through a team of investment professionals.
The Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its services to the Company are not impaired.
Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company pays the Adviser a base management fee and may also pay a performance based incentive fee. The cost of both the management fee and the incentive fee will ultimately be borne by the Company’s shareholders.
Unless earlier terminated as described below, the Investment Advisory Agreement, and subject to the consummation of the Transaction, the amended and restated investment advisory agreement, will remain in effect until September 30, 2022 and from year-to-year thereafter if approved annually by a majority of the Board or by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting securities and, in each case, by a majority of independent directors.
The Investment Advisory Agreement will automatically terminate within the meaning of the 1940 Act and related SEC guidance and interpretations in the event of its assignment. In accordance with the 1940 Act, without payment of penalty, the Company may terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser upon 60 days’ written notice. The decision to terminate the agreement may be made by a majority of the Board of Directors or the shareholders holding a majority (as defined under the 1940 Act) of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock or the Adviser. In addition, without payment of penalty, the Adviser may generally terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement upon 120 days’ written notice.
From time to time, the Adviser may pay amounts owed by the Company to third-party providers of goods or services, including the Board, and the Company will subsequently reimburse the Adviser for such amounts paid on its behalf. Amounts payable to the Adviser are settled in the normal course of business without formal payment terms.
The base management fee is payable monthly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.25% based on the average value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar months. All or part of the
25
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
base management fee not taken as to any month will be deferred without interest and may be taken in any such month prior to the occurrence of a liquidity event. Base management fees for any partial month are prorated based on the number of days in the month. On February 23, 2021, the Adviser agreed to waive 100% of the base management fee for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Any portion of management fees waived shall not be subject to recoupment.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, management fees (gross of waivers) were $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, $52 thousand of management fees were waived.
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to an incentive fee. The incentive fee consists of two parts: (i) an incentive fee on income and (ii) an incentive fee on capital gains. Each part of the incentive fee is outlined below.
The incentive fee on income will be calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and will be based upon the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. In the case of a liquidation of the Company or if the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated, the fee will also become payable as of the effective date of the event.
The incentive fee on income for each calendar quarter will be calculated as follows:
The second component of the incentive fee, the “Capital Gains Incentive Fee,” will be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year during which the Investment Advisory Agreement is in effect. In the case of a liquidation, or if the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated, the fee will also become payable as of the effective date of such event. The annual fee will equal (i) 12.50% of the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of such calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less (ii) the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fees on capital gains as calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company will accrue but will not pay a Capital Gains Incentive Fee with respect to unrealized appreciation because a Capital Gains Incentive Fee would be owed to the Adviser if the Company was to sell the relevant investment and realize a capital gain. In no event will the incentive fee on capital gains payable pursuant hereto be in excess of the amount permitted by the Advisers Act, including Section 205 thereof.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred performance based incentive fees on net investment income of $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred performance based incentive fees based on capital gains of $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to receive up to 1.5% of gross offering proceeds raised in the continuous public offering until all organization and offering costs paid by the Adviser or its affiliates have been recovered. The Company bears all other expenses of its operations and transactions including, without limitation, those relating to: expenses deemed to be “organization and offering expenses” for purposes of Conduct Rule 2310(a)(12) of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (exclusive of commissions, the dealer manager fee, any discounts and other similar expenses paid by investors at the time of sale of the Company’s stock); the cost of corporate and organizational expenses relating to offerings of shares of common stock, subject to limitations included in the Investment Advisory Agreement; the cost of calculating the Company’s net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services; the cost of effecting any sales and repurchases of the common stock and other securities; fees and expenses payable under any dealer manager agreements, if any; debt service and other costs of borrowings or other financing arrangements; costs of hedging; expenses, including travel expense, incurred by the Adviser, or members of the Investment Team, or payable to third parties, performing due diligence on prospective portfolio companies and, if necessary, enforcing the Company’s rights; escrow agent, transfer agent and custodial fees and expenses; fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts; federal and state registration fees, any stock exchange listing fees and fees payable to rating agencies; federal, state and local taxes; independent directors’ fees and expenses, including certain travel expenses; costs of preparing financial statements and maintaining books and records and filing reports or other documents with the SEC (or other regulatory bodies) and other reporting and compliance costs, including registration fees, listing fees and licenses, and the compensation of professionals responsible for the preparation of the foregoing; the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to shareholders (including printing and mailing costs); the costs of any shareholder or director meetings and the compensation of personnel responsible for the preparation of the foregoing and related matters; commissions and other compensation payable to brokers or dealers; research and market data; fidelity bond, directors and officers errors and omissions liability insurance and other insurance premiums; direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing, mailing, long distance telephone and staff; fees and expenses associated with independent audits, outside legal and consulting costs; costs of winding up; costs incurred in connection with the formation or maintenance of entities or vehicles to hold the Company’s assets for tax or other purposes; extraordinary expenses (such as litigation or indemnification); and costs associated with reporting and compliance obligations under the Advisers Act and applicable federal and state securities laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall reimburse the Adviser (or its affiliates) for an allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser (or its affiliates) to the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs (based on a percentage of time such individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business affairs of the Company). Any such reimbursements will not exceed actual expenses incurred by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Adviser is responsible for the payment of the Company’s organization and offering expenses to the extent that these expenses exceed 1.5% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds, without recourse against or reimbursement by the Company.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, subject to the 1.5% organization and offering cost cap, the Company accrued initial organization and offering expenses of $2.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively.
From time to time, the Adviser may pay amounts owed by the Company to third-party providers of goods or services, including the Board, and the Company will subsequently reimburse the Adviser for such amounts paid on its behalf. Amounts payable to the Adviser are settled in the normal course of business without formal payment terms.
Affiliated Transactions
The Company may be prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with its affiliates without prior approval of the directors who are not interested persons, and in some cases, the prior approval of the SEC. The Company relies on exemptive relief that has been granted to the Adviser to co-invest with other funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates, in a manner consistent with the Company’s investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. Pursuant to such exemptive relief, the Company generally is permitted to co-invest with certain of its affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the Board make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Company and its shareholders and do not involve overreaching of the Company or its shareholders on the part of any person concerned, (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of the Company’s shareholders and is consistent with its investment objective and strategies, (3) the investment by its affiliates would not disadvantage the Company, and the Company’s participation would not be on a basis different from or less advantageous than that on which its affiliates are investing, and (4) the proposed investment by the Company would not benefit the Adviser or its affiliates or any affiliated person of any of them (other than the parties to the transaction), except to the extent permitted by the exemptive relief and applicable law, including the limitations set forth in Section 57(k) of the 1940 Act.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
In addition, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC on April 8, 2020 and applicable to all BDCs, through December 31, 2020, the Company was permitted, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to complete follow-on investments in its existing portfolio companies with certain private funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates and covered by the Company’s exemptive relief, even if such private funds have not previously invested in such existing portfolio company. Without this order, private funds would generally not be able to participate in such co-investments with the Company unless the private funds had previously acquired securities of the portfolio company in a co-investment transaction with the Company. Although the conditional exemptive order has expired, the SEC`s Division of Investment Management has indicated that until March 31, 2022, it will not recommend enforcement action, to the extend that any BDC with an existing coinvestment order continues to engage in certain transactions described in the conditional exemptive order, pursuant to the same terms and conditions described therein.
The Adviser is affiliated with Owl Rock Technology Advisors LLC (“ORTA”), Owl Rock Capital Private Fund Advisors LLC (“ORPFA”), and Owl Rock Diversified Advisors LLC (“ORDA”). ORTA, ORPFA and the Adviser, the “Owl Rock Advisers”, are also investment advisers. The Owl Rock Advisers are indirect affiliates of Blue Owl and comprise “Owl Rock,” a division of Blue Owl focused on direct lending. The Owl Rock Advisers’ allocation policy seeks to ensure equitable allocation of investment opportunities over time between the Company, and other funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates. As a result of exemptive relief, there could be significant overlap in the Company’s investment portfolio and the investment portfolio of other funds managed by Owl Rock that could avail themselves of exemptive relief and that have an investment objective similar to the Company’s.
Dealer Manager Agreement
The Company has entered into a dealer manager agreement (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”) with Blue Owl Securities, an affiliate of the Adviser, and participating broker-dealer agreements with certain broker-dealers. Under the terms of the Dealer Manager Agreement and the participating broker-dealer agreements, Blue Owl Securities serves as the dealer manager, and certain participating broker-dealers solicit capital, for the Company’s public offering of shares of Class S, Class D, and Class I common stock. Blue Owl Securities will be entitled to receive upfront selling commissions of up to 3.50% of the offering price of each Class S share sold in this offering. Blue Owl Securities will be entitled to receive upfront selling commissions of up to 1.50% of the offering price of each Class D share sold in this offering. Blue Owl Securities anticipates that all or a portion of the upfront selling commissions will be retained by, or reallowed (paid) to, participating broker-dealers. Blue Owl Securities will not receive upfront selling commissions with respect to any class of shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan or with respect to purchases of Class I shares.
Upfront selling commissions for sales of Class S and Class D shares may be reduced or waived in connection with volume or other discounts, other fee arrangements or for sales to certain categories of purchasers.
Blue Owl Securities, an affiliate of Blue Owl, is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
Shareholder Servicing Plan
Subject to FINRA limitations on underwriting compensation and pursuant to a distribution plan adopted by the Company in compliance with Rules 12b-1 and 17d-3 under the 1940 Act, as if those rules applied to the Company, the Company will pay Blue Owl Securities servicing fees for ongoing services as follows:
The Company will not pay an ongoing servicing fee with respect to the Company’s outstanding Class I shares.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid servicing fees with respect to Class D shares of $33 thousand and $46 thousand, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid servicing fees with respect to Class S shares of $223 thousand and $260 thousand, respectively.
28
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
The servicing fees are paid monthly in arrears. Blue Owl Securities will reallow (pay) all or a portion of the ongoing servicing fees to participating broker-dealers and servicing broker-dealers for ongoing services performed by such broker-dealers, and will waive ongoing servicing fees to the extent a broker-dealer is not eligible to receive it for failure to provide such services. Because the ongoing servicing fees are calculated based on the Company’s net asset values for the Company’s Class S and Class D shares, they will reduce the net asset values or, alternatively, the distributions payable, with respect to the shares of each such class, including shares issued under it`s distribution reinvestment plan. The Company will cease paying ongoing servicing fees at the date at which total underwriting compensation from any source in connection with this offering equals 10% of the gross proceeds from it`s offering (excluding proceeds from issuances pursuant to it`s distribution reinvestment plan). This limitation is intended to ensure that the Company satisfies the requirements of FINRA Rule 2310, which provides that the maximum aggregate underwriting compensation from any source, including compensation paid from offering proceeds and in the form of “trail commissions,” payable to underwriters, broker-dealers, or affiliates thereof participating in an offering may not exceed 10% of gross offering proceeds, excluding proceeds received in connection with the issuance of shares through a distribution reinvestment plan.
Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement
The Company has entered into the Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Adviser, the purpose of which is to ensure that no portion of the Company’s distributions to shareholders will represent a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Expense Support Agreement became effective as of the date that the Company met the minimum offering requirement.
On a quarterly basis, the Adviser reimburses the Company for “Operating Expenses” (as defined below) in an amount equal to the excess of the Company’s cumulative distributions paid to the Company’s shareholders in each quarter over “Available Operating Funds” (as defined below) received by the Company on account of its investment portfolio during such quarter. Any payments required to be made by the Adviser pursuant to the preceding sentence are referred to herein as an “Expense Payment”.
Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, “Operating Expenses” means all of the Company’s operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) the Company’s estimated investment company taxable income (including realized net short-term capital gains reduced by realized net long-term capital losses), (ii) the Company’s realized net capital gains (including the excess of realized net long-term capital gains over realized net short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies, if any (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included under clauses (i) and (ii) above).
The Adviser’s obligation to make an Expense Payment will automatically become a liability of the Adviser and the right to such Expense Payment will be an asset of the Company’s on the last business day of the applicable quarter. The Expense Payment for any quarter will be paid by the Adviser to the Company in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds, and/or offset against amounts due from the Company to the Adviser no later than the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company closes it’s books for such quarter, or (ii) forty-five days after the end of such quarter.
Following any quarter in which Available Operating Funds exceed the cumulative distributions paid by the Company in respect of such quarter (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), the Company will pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, in accordance with the stipulations below, as applicable, to the Adviser, until such time as all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to the Company within three years prior to the last business day of such quarter have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Company are referred to as a “Reimbursement Payment”.
The amount of the Reimbursement Payment for any quarter shall equal the lesser of (i) the Excess Operating Funds in respect of such quarter and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to the Company within three years prior to the last business day of such quarter that have not been previously reimbursed by the Company to the Adviser. The payment will be reduced to the extent that such Reimbursement Payments, together with all other Reimbursement Payments paid during the fiscal year, would cause Other Operating Expenses defined as the Company’s total Operating Expenses, excluding base management fees, incentive fees, organization and offering expenses, distribution and shareholder servicing fees, financing fees and costs, interest expense, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses (on an annualized basis and net of any Expense Payments received by the Company during the fiscal year) to exceed the lesser of: (i) 1.75% of the Company’s average net assets attributable to the shares of the Company’s common stock for the fiscal year-to-date period after taking such Expense Payments into account; and (ii) the percentage of the Company’s average net assets attributable to shares of the Company’s common stock represented by Other
29
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
Operating Expenses during the fiscal year in which such Expense Payment was made (provided, however, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to any Reimbursement Payment which relates to an Expense Payment made during the same fiscal year).
No Reimbursement Payment for any quarter will be made if: (1) the “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” (as defined below) declared by the Company at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is less than the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, or (2) the Company’s “Operating Expense Ratio” (as defined below) at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” means the annualized rate (based on a 365 day year) of regular cash distributions per share exclusive of returns of capital, distribution rate reductions due to distribution and shareholder fees, and declared special dividends or special distributions, if any. The “Operating Expense Ratio” is calculated by dividing Operating Expenses, less organizational and offering expenses, base management and incentive fees owed to Adviser, and interest expense, by the Company’s net assets.
The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by the Adviser, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. The Company or the Adviser may terminate the Expense Support Agreement at any time, with or without notice. The Expense Support Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of (a) the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, or (b) a determination by the Company`s Board to dissolve or liquidate the Company. Upon termination of the Expense Support Agreement, the Company will be required to fund any Expense Payments that have not been reimbursed by the Company to the Adviser.
As of September 30, 2021, the amount of Expense Support Payments provided by the Adviser since inception is $2.6 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded obligations to repay Expense Support from the Adviser of $0.5 million. The Company may or may not reimburse remaining expense support in the future.
The following table presents a summary of all expenses supported, and recouped, by the Adviser for each of the following three month periods in which the Company received Expense Support from the Adviser and the associated dates through which such expenses may be subject to reimbursement from the Company pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement:

________________
The Company typically determines the fair value of its performing Level 3 debt investments utilizing a yield analysis. In a yield analysis, a price is ascribed for each investment based upon an assessment of current and expected market yields for similar investments and risk profiles. Additional consideration is given to the expected life, portfolio company performance since close, and other terms and risks associated with an investment. Among other factors, a determinant of risk is the amount of leverage used by the portfolio company relative to its total enterprise value, and the rights and remedies of the Company’s investment within the portfolio company’s capital structure.
Significant unobservable quantitative inputs typically used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s Level 3 debt investments primarily include current market yields, including relevant market indices, but may also include quotes from brokers, dealers, and pricing services as indicated by comparable investments. For the Company’s Level 3 equity investments, a market approach, based on comparable publicly-traded company and comparable market transaction multiples of revenues, EBITDA, or some combination thereof and comparable market transactions typically would be used.
Debt Not Carried at Fair Value
Fair value is estimated by discounting remaining payments using applicable current market rates, which take into account changes in the Company’s marketplace credit ratings, or market quotes, if available. The following table presents the carrying and fair values of the Company’s debt obligations as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Promissory Note
On October 15, 2020, the Company as borrower, entered into a Loan Agreement (the "Original Loan Agreement") with Owl Rock Feeder FIC ORCIC Debt LLC ("Feeder FIC Debt"), an affiliate of the Adviser, as lender, to enter into revolving promissory notes (the "Promissory Notes") to borrow up to an aggregate of $50 million from Feeder FIC Debt.
On March 31, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Original Loan Agreement to increase the aggregate amount that could be borrowed pursuant to the Promissory Note from $50 million to $75 million. The Original Loan Agreement was amended and restated (as amended through the date hereof, the "Loan Agreement") on May 12, 2021. On August 26, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Loan Agreement to increase the aggregate amount that could be borrowed pursuant to the Promissory Note from $75 million to $100 million. On September 13, 2021, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Loan Agreement to increase the aggregate amount that could be borrowed pursuant to the Promissory Note from $100 million to $250 million and extended the maturity date to February 28, 2023. The Company may re-borrow any amount repaid; however there is no funding commitment between Feeder FIC Debt and the Company.
The interest rate on amounts borrowed pursuant to Promissory Notes, prior to May 12, 2021, was based on either the rate of interest for a LIBOR-Based Advance or the rate of interest for a Prime-Based Advance as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 20, 2020, as amended from time to time, by and among the Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC, as borrower, East West Bank, as Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender and a Lender and Investec Bank PLC as a Lender.
The interest rate on amounts borrowed pursuant to the Promissory Notes after May 12, 2021 is based on the lesser of the rate of interest for an ABR Loan or a Eurodollar Loan under the Credit Agreement dated as of April 15, 2021, as amended or supplemented from time to time, by and among the Adviser, as borrower, the several lenders from time to time party thereto, MUFG Union Bank, N.A., as Collateral Agent and MUFG Bank, Ltd., as Administrative Agent.
The unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Promissory Note and accrued interest thereon is payable by the Company from time to time at the discretion of the Company but immediately due and payable upon 120 days written notice by Owl Rock Feeder FIC ORCIC Debt LLC, and in any event due and payable in full no later than February 28, 2023. The Company intends to use the borrowed funds to, among other things, make investments in portfolio companies consistent with its investment strategies.
Revolving Credit Facility
On April 14, 2021, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Revolver”). The parties to the Facility include the Company, as Borrower, the lenders from time to time parties thereto (each a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation as Administrative Agent, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and MUFG Union Bank, N.A. as Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Runners and Syndication Agents, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A., as Documentation Agents.
On September 29, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Revolver to among other things, (i) change the rate under the Revolver for borrowings denominated in Sterling from a LIBOR-based rate to daily simple SONIA (Sterling Overnight Index Average) subject to certain adjustments specified in the Revolver and (ii) change the rate under the Revolver for borrowings denominated in Swiss Francs from a LIBOR-based rate to SARON (Swiss Average Rate Overnight) subject to certain adjustments specified in the Revolver. The other material terms of the Revolver were unchanged
38
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
The Revolver is guaranteed by OR Lending IC LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, and will be guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company that are formed or acquired by the Company in the future (collectively, the “Guarantors”). Proceeds of the Revolver may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments.
The maximum principal amount of the Revolver is $600,000,000, subject to availability under the borrowing base, which is based on the Company’s portfolio investments and other outstanding indebtedness. Maximum capacity under the Revolver may be increased to $1,100,000,000 through the exercise by the Borrower of an uncommitted accordion feature through which existing and new lenders may, at their option, agree to provide additional financing. The Revolver is secured by a perfected first-priority interest in substantially all of the portfolio investments held by the Company and each Guarantor, subject to certain exceptions, and includes a $50,000,000 limit for swingline loans.
The availability period under the Revolver will terminate on April 14, 2025 (“Commitment Termination Date”) and the Revolver will mature on April 14, 2026 (“Maturity Date”). During the period from the Commitment Termination Date to the Maturity Date, the Company will be obligated to make mandatory prepayments under the Revolver out of the proceeds of certain asset sales and other recovery events and equity and debt issuances.
The Company may borrow amounts in U.S. dollars or certain other permitted currencies. Amounts drawn under the Revolver, will bear interest at either LIBOR plus a margin of 2.00%, or the prime rate plus a margin of 1.00%. The Company may elect either the LIBOR or prime rate at the time of drawdown, and loans may be converted from one rate to another at any time at the Company’s option, subject to certain conditions. Further, the Revolver builds in a hardwired approach for the replacement of LIBOR loans in U.S. dollars. For LIBOR loans in other permitted currencies, the Revolver includes customary fallback mechanics for the Company and the Administrative Agent to select an alternative benchmark, subject to the negative consent of required Lenders. The Company will also pay a fee of 0.375% on undrawn amounts under the Revolver.
The Revolver includes customary covenants, including certain limitations on the incurrence by the Company of additional indebtedness and on the Company’s ability to make distributions to its shareholders, or redeem, repurchase or retire shares of stock, upon the occurrence of certain events and certain financial covenants related to asset coverage and liquidity and other maintenance covenants, as well as customary events of default.
SPV Asset Facility I
On September 16, 2021 (the “SPV Asset I Facility Closing Date”), Core Income Funding I LLC ("Core Income Funding I”), a Delaware limited liability company and newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “SPV Asset Facility I”), with Core Income Funding I, as borrower, the lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), Natixis, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company as Collateral Agent and Alter Domus (US) LLC as Document Custodian.
From time to time, the Company expects to sell and contribute certain investments to Core Income Funding I pursuant to a Sale and Contribution Agreement by and between the Company and Core Income Funding I. No gain or loss will be recognized as a result of the contribution. Proceeds from the SPV Asset Facility I will be used to finance the origination and acquisition of eligible assets by Core Income Funding I, including the purchase of such assets from the Company. The Company retains a residual interest in assets contributed to or acquired by Core Income Funding I through its ownership of Core Income Funding I. The maximum principal amount of the Credit Facility is $300 million; the availability of this amount is subject to an overcollateralization ratio test, which is based on the value of Core Income Funding I’s assets from time to time, and satisfaction of certain conditions, including an interest coverage ratio test, certain concentration limits and collateral quality tests.
The SPV Asset Facility I provides for the ability to (1) draw term loans and (2) draw and redraw revolving loans under the SPV Asset Facility I for a period of up to two years after the Closing Date unless the revolving commitments are terminated or converted to term loans sooner as provided in the SPV Asset Facility I (the “Commitment Termination Date”). Unless otherwise terminated, the SPV Asset Facility I will mature on September 16, 2031 (the “Stated Maturity”). Prior to the Stated Maturity, proceeds received by Core Income Funding I from principal and interest, dividends, or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Company, subject to certain conditions. On the Stated Maturity, Core Income Funding I must pay in full all outstanding fees and expenses and all principal and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Company.

Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
Amounts drawn bear interest at LIBOR (or, in the case of certain lenders that are commercial paper conduits, the lower of their cost of funds and LIBOR plus 0.25%) plus an applicable margin that ranges from 1.55% to 2.15% depending on a ratio of broadly syndicated loans to middle market loans in the collateral. From the Closing Date to the Commitment Termination Date, there is a commitment fee that steps up during the year after the Closing Date from 0.00% to 0.625% per annum on the undrawn amount, if any, of the revolving commitments in the SPV Asset Facility I. The SPV Asset Facility I contains customary covenants, including certain financial maintenance covenants, limitations on the activities of Core Income Funding I, including limitations on incurrence of incremental indebtedness, and customary events of default. The SPV Asset Facility I is secured by a perfected first priority security interest in the assets of Core Income Funding I and on any payments received by Core Income Funding I in respect of those assets. Assets pledged to the Lenders will not be available to pay the debts of the Company.
Unsecured Notes
September 2026 Notes
On September 23, 2021, the Company issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% notes due 2026 (the “September 2026 Notes”) in a private placement in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and for initial resale to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act. The September 2026 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration.
The September 2026 Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of September 23, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 23, 2021 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “September 2026 Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. The September 2026 Notes will mature on September 23, 2026 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at our option at any time or from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the September 2026 Indenture. The September 2026 Notes initially bear interest at a rate of 3.125% per year payable semi-annually on March 23 and September 23 of each year, commencing on March 23, 2022. Concurrent with the issuance of the September 2026 Notes, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement for the benefit of the purchasers of the September 2026 Notes. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC with respect to an offer to exchange the September 2026 Notes for a new issue of debt securities registered under the Securities Act with terms substantially identical to those of the September 2026 Notes (except for provisions relating to transfer restrictions and payment of additional interest) and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate such exchange offer on the earliest practicable date after the registration statement has been declared effective but in no event later than 365 days after the initial issuance of the September 2026 Notes. If the Company fails to satisfy its registration obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, it will be required to pay additional interest to the holders of the September 2026 Notes. The September 2026 Notes will be our direct, general unsecured obligations and will rank senior in right of payment to all of our future indebtedness or other obligations that are expressly subordinated, or junior, in right of payment to the September 2026 Notes. The September 2026 Notes will rank pari passu, or equal, in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness or other obligations that are not so subordinated, or junior. The September 2026 Notes will rank effectively subordinated, or junior, to any of the Company’s future secured indebtedness or other obligations (including unsecured indebtedness that the Company later secures) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The September 2026 Notes will rank structurally subordinated, or junior, to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.
The September 2026 Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants requiring the Company to (i) comply with the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act, whether or not it is subject to those requirements, and (ii) provide financial information to the holders of the September 2026 Notes and the Trustee if the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the September 2026 Indenture.
In addition, if a change of control repurchase event, as defined in the September 2026 Indenture, occurs prior to maturity, holders of the September 2026 Notes will have the right, at their option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash some or all of the September 2026 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the September 2026 Notes being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
On February 23, 2021 the Company’s Board declared regular monthly distributions for March 2021 through June 2021. The regular monthly cash distributions, each in the gross amount of $0.05145833 per share, are payable on April 28, 2021, May 28, 2021, June 28, 2021 and July 29, 2021 to shareholders of records as of March 31, 2021, April 30, 2021, May 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively.
On May 5, 2021, the Company’s Board declared regular monthly distributions for July 2021 through September 2021. The regular monthly cash distributions, each in the gross amount of $0.05145833 per share, are payable on August 27, 2021, September 28, 2021, and October 28, 2021 to shareholders of records as of July 31, 2021, August 31, 2021, and September 30, 2021, respectively.
On August 3, 2021, the Company’s Board declared regular monthly distributions for October 2021 through December 2021. The regular monthly cash distributions, each in the gross amount of $0.05145833 per share, are payable on November 30, 2021, December 31, 2021, and January 31, 2022 to shareholders of records as of October 31, 2021, November 30, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.
On September 13, 2021, the Company’s Board declared special monthly distributions for October 2021 through December 2021. The special monthly cash distributions, each in the gross amount of $0.00144722, $0.00289444, and $0.00434166 per share, are payable on November 30, 2021, December 29, 2021, and January 31, 2022 to shareholders of records as of October 31, 2021, November 30, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.
The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which shareholders (except for residents of Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Vermont and Washington and clients of participating broker-dealers that do not permit automatic enrollment in the distribution reinvestment plan) will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s same class of common stock to which the distribution relates unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash. The Company expects to use newly issued shares to implement the distribution reinvestment plan.
The Company may fund its cash distributions to shareholders from any source of funds available to the Company, including but not limited to offering proceeds, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to it on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense support from the Adviser, which is subject to recoupment. In no event, however, will funds be advanced or borrowed for the purpose of distributions, if the amount of such distributions would exceed the Company’s accrued and received revenues for the previous four quarters, less paid and accrued operating expenses with respect to such revenues and costs.
Through September 30, 2021, a portion of the Company’s distributions resulted from expense support from the Adviser, and future distributions may result from expense support from the Adviser, each of which is subject to repayment by the Company within three years from the date of payment. The purpose of this arrangement is to avoid distributions being characterized as a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Shareholders should understand that any such distribution is not based on the Company’s investment performance, and can only be sustained if the Company achieves positive investment performance in future periods and/or the Adviser continues to provide expense support. Shareholders should also understand that the Company’s future repayments of expense support will reduce the distributions that they would otherwise receive. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the performance necessary to sustain these distributions, or be able to pay distributions at all.
Sources of distributions, other than net investment income and realized gains on a U.S. GAAP basis, include required adjustments to U.S. GAAP net investment income in the current period to determine taxable income available for distributions. The following table reflects the sources of cash distributions on a U.S. GAAP basis that the Company has declared on its shares of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2021:

Share Repurchases
The Board has complete discretion to determine whether the Company will engage in any share repurchase, and if so, the terms of such repurchase. At the discretion of the Board, the Company may use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings, and cash from the sale of its investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares.
The Company has commenced a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company intends to conduct quarterly repurchase offers to allow its shareholders to tender their shares at a price equal to the net offering price per share for the applicable class of shares on each date of repurchase.
All shares purchased by the Company pursuant to the terms of each offer to repurchase will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued shares.
The Company intends to limit the number of shares to be repurchased in each quarter to no more than 5.00% of its’ outstanding shares of common stock.
Any periodic repurchase offers are subject in part to the Company’s available cash and compliance with the BDC and RIC qualification and diversification rules promulgated under the 1940 Act and the Code, respectively. While the Company intends to continue to conduct quarterly tender offers as described above, the Company is not required to do so and may suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time.

Note 10. Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and intends to operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC thereafter, the Company must, among other things, distribute to its shareholders in each taxable year generally at least 90% of the Company’s investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, and net tax-exempt income for that taxable year. To maintain tax treatment as a RIC, the Company,

Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
among other things, intends to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders, which generally relieves the Company from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company can be expected to carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year dividend distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such income, the Company will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did not record an expense for U.S. federal excise tax.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
Note 12. Subsequent Events
In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date of issuance. There are no subsequent events to disclose except for the following:
On November 2, 2021, the Company’s Board declared regular monthly distributions for January 2022 through March 2022. The regular monthly cash distributions, each in the gross amount of $0.05580000 per share, are payable on February 28, 2022, March 31, 2022, and April 29, 2022 to shareholders of records as of 9 PM EST on January 31, 2022, February 28, 2022, and March 31, 2022, respectively.
As of November 12, 2021, the Company has issued 29,818,604 shares of its Class S common stock, 13,828,329 shares of its Class D common stock, and 58,919,835 shares of its Class I common stock and has raised total gross proceeds of $280.3 million, $128.6 million, and $548.7 million, respectively, including seed capital of $1,000 contributed by its Adviser in September 2020 and approximately $25.0 million in gross proceeds raised from Feeder FIC Equity. In addition, as of November 12, 2021, the Company has received $281 million in subscription payments which the Company accepted on November 1, 2021 and which is pending the Company’s determination of the net asset value per share applicable to such purchase.
On October 5, 2021, Core Income Funding II LLC (“Core Income Funding II”), a Delaware limited liability company and the Company's newly formed subsidiary entered into a loan and financing and servicing agreement (the “SPV Asset Facility II”), with Core Income Funding II, as borrower, the Company, as equityholder and service provider, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as Facility Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, as collateral agent, and Alter Domus (US) LLC as collateral custodian.
From time to time, the Company expects to sell and contribute certain loan assets to Core Income Funding II pursuant to a Sale and Contribution Agreement by and between the Company and Core Income Funding II. No gain or loss will be recognized as a result of the contribution. Proceeds from the SPV Asset Facility II will be used to finance the origination and acquisition of eligible assets by Core Income Funding II, including the purchase of such assets from the Company. The Company retains a residual interest in assets contributed to or acquired by Core Income Funding II through the Company's ownership of Core Income Funding II. The maximum principal amount of the SPV Asset Facility II is $500 million; the availability of this amount is subject to the borrowing base, which is determined on the basis of the value and types of Core Income Funding II’s assets from time to time, and satisfaction of certain conditions, including interest spread and weighted average coupon tests, certain concentration limits and collateral quality tests.
The SPV Asset Facility II provides for the ability to borrow, reborrow, repay and prepay advances under the SPV Asset Facility II for a period of up to three years after the Closing Date unless such period is extended or accelerated under the terms of the SPV Asset Facility II (the “Revolving Period”). Unless otherwise extended, accelerated or terminated under the terms of the SPV Asset Facility II, the SPV Asset Facility II will mature on the date that is two years after the last day of the Revolving Period (the “Facility Termination Date”). Prior to the Facility Termination Date, proceeds received by Core Income Funding II from principal and interest, dividends, or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding advances, and the excess may be returned to the Company, subject to certain conditions. On the Facility Termination Date, Core Income Funding II must pay in full all outstanding fees and expenses and all principal and interest on outstanding advances, and the excess may be returned to the Company.
Amounts drawn under the SPV Asset Facility II bear interest at LIBOR (or, in the case of certain Lenders that are commercial paper conduits, the lower of (a) their cost of funds and (b) LIBOR, such LIBOR not to be lower than zero) plus a spread equal to 2.00% per annum, which spread will increase (a) on and after the end of the Revolving Period by 0.15% per annum if no event of
50
Owl Rock Core Income Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
default has occurred and (b) by 2.00% per annum upon the occurrence of an event of default (such spread, the “Applicable Margin”). LIBOR may be replaced as a base rate under certain circumstances. During the Revolving Period, Core Income Funding II will pay an undrawn fee ranging from 0.00% to 0.25% per annum on the undrawn amount, if any, of the revolving commitments in the SPV Asset Facility. During the Revolving Period, if the undrawn commitments are in excess of a certain portion (initially 12.5% and increasing in stages to 25%, 50% and 75%) of the total commitments under the SPV Asset Facility II, Core Income Funding II will also pay a make-whole fee equal to the Applicable Margin multiplied by such excess undrawn commitment amount, reduced by the undrawn fee payable on such excess. Core Income Funding II will also pay Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, certain fees (and reimburse certain expenses) in connection with its role as facility agent. The SPV Asset Facility II contains customary covenants, including certain financial maintenance covenants, limitations on the activities of Core Income Funding II, including limitations on incurrence of incremental indebtedness, and customary events of default. The SPV Asset Facility II is secured by a perfected first priority security interest in the assets of Core Income Funding II and on any payments received by Core Income Funding II in respect of those assets. Assets pledged to the Lenders will not be available to pay the Company's debts.
Borrowings of Core Income Funding II are considered the Company's borrowings for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with “ITEM 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS”. This discussion contains forward-looking statements, which relate to future events or the future performance or financial condition of Owl Rock Core Income Corp. and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and in “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS”. This discussion also should be read in conjunction with the “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements” set forth on page 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ materially from those implied or expressed in any forward-looking statements.
Overview
Owl Rock Core Income Corp. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act. Formed as a Maryland corporation on April 22, 2020, we are externally managed by Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”) which is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. The Adviser is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. On October 23, 2020, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, OR Lending IC LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which holds a California finance lenders license. OR Lending IC LLC makes loans to borrowers headquartered in California. From time to time we may form wholly-owned subsidiaries to facilitate the normal course of business.
We are managed by our Adviser. Our Adviser is an indirect subsidiary of Blue Owl Capital, Inc. (“Blue Owl”) (NYSE: OWL) and part of Owl Rock, a division of Blue Owl focused on direct lending. Our Adviser is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). Subject to the overall supervision of our Board, our Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory and management services, to us. The Adviser or its affiliates may engage in certain organizational activities and receive attendant arrangement, structuring or similar fees. Our Adviser is responsible for managing our business and activities, including sourcing investment opportunities, conducting research, performing diligence on potential investments, structuring our investments, and monitoring our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis through a team of management professionals. Our Board consists of six directors, five of whom are independent.
We have received an exemptive order that permits us to offer multiple classes of shares of common stock and to impose asset-based servicing and distribution fees and early withdrawal fees. We are offering on a best efforts, continuous basis up to $2,500,000,000 in any combination of amount of shares of Class S, Class D and Class I common stock. The share classes have different upfront selling commissions and ongoing servicing fees. Each class of common stock will be offered through Blue Owl Securities LLC (d/b/a Blue Owl Securities) (the “Dealer Manager”). The Dealer Manager is entitled to receive upfront selling commissions of up to 3.50% of the offering price of each Class S share sold in the offering and 1.50% of the offering price of each Class D share sold. Class I shares are not subject to upfront selling commissions. Any upfront selling commissions for the Class S shares and Class D shares sold in the offering will be deducted from the purchase price. Class S, Class D and Class I shares were offered at initial purchase prices per shares of $10.35, $10.15 and $10.00, respectively. Currently, the purchase price per share for each class of common stock varies, but will not be sold at a price below the Company’s net asset value per share of such class, as determined in accordance with the Company’s share pricing policy, plus applicable upfront selling commissions.
On September 30, 2020, the Advisor purchased 100 shares of our Class I common stock at $10.00 per share, which represents the initial public offering price. The Adviser will not tender these shares for repurchase as long as Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC remains the investment adviser of Owl Rock Core Income Corp. There is no current intention for Owl Rock Capital Advisors LLC to discontinue its role. On October 15, 2020, we received a subscription agreement, totaling $25.0 million for the purchase of Class I common shares of our common stock from Feeder Owl Rock Feeder FIC ORCIC Equity LLC (“Feeder FIC Equity”), an entity affiliated with the Adviser. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had called all of the $25.0 million commitment from Feeder FIC Equity.
We commenced our continuous public offering of up to $2,500,000,000 in any combination of amount of shares of Class S, Class D, and Class I common stock on November 12, 2020. On November 12, 2020, we sold 700,000 shares pursuant to the subscription agreement with Feeder FIC Equity and met the minimum offering requirement for our continuous public offering of $2.5 million. The purchase price of these shares sold in the private placement was $10.00 per share. Since meeting the minimum offering requirement and commencing our continuous public offering through September 30, 2021, the Company has issued 17,515,705 shares of Class S common stock, 7,103,293 shares of Class D common stock, and 42,810,584 shares of Class I common stock for gross proceeds of
52
$164.9 million, $66.0 million, and $398.6 million, respectively, including $1,000 of seed capital contributed by our Adviser in September 2020 and approximately $25.0 million in gross proceeds raised in the private placement from Feeder FIC Equity. The shares purchased by the Adviser and Feeder FIC Equity are subject to a lock-up pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1) for a period of 180 days from the date of commencement of sales in the offering, and the Adviser, Feeder FIC Equity, and their permitted assignees may not engage in any transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the Class I shares. On October 7, 2021, we filed a registration statement with respect to our proposed follow-on offering of up to $7,500,000,000 in any combination Class S, Class D and Class I common shares.
Our Adviser also serves as investment adviser to Owl Rock Capital Corporation and Owl Rock Capital Corporation II.
Blue Owl consists of two divisions: Owl Rock, which focuses on direct lending and Dyal, which focuses on providing capital to institution alternative asset managers. Owl Rock is comprised of the Adviser, Owl Rock Technology Advisors LLC (“ORTA”), Owl Rock Capital Private Fund Advisors LLC (“ORPFA”) and Owl Rock Diversified Advisors LLC (“ORDA”). The Adviser, ORTA, ORPFA and ORDA, the “Owl Rock Advisers” are investment advisers.
In addition, we and the Adviser have entered into a dealer manager agreement with Blue Owl Securities and certain participating broker dealers to solicit capital.
We may be prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, the prior approval of the SEC. We rely on exemptive relief that has been granted to our Adviser and its affiliates, have been granted exemptive relief by the SEC to permit us to co-invest with other funds managed by our Adviser or certain of its affiliates, the Owl Rock Clients in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. Pursuant to such exemptive relief, we generally are permitted to co-invest with certain of our affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transactions, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our shareholders and do not involve overreaching by us or our shareholders on the part of any person concerned, (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our shareholders and is consistent with our investment objective and strategies, (3) the investment by our affiliates would not disadvantage us, and our participation would not be on a basis different from or less advantageous than that on which our affiliates are investing, and (4) the proposed investment by us would not benefit our Adviser or its affiliates or any affiliated person of any of them (other than the parties to the transaction), except to the extent permitted by the exemptive relief and applicable law, including the limitations set forth in Section 57(k) of the 1940 Act. In addition, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC on April 8, 2020 and applicable to all BDCs, through December 31, 2020, we were permitted, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to complete follow-on investments in our existing portfolio companies with certain private funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates and covered by our exemptive relief, even if such other funds had not previously invested in such existing portfolio company. Without this order, private funds would not be able to participate in such follow-on investments with us unless the private funds had previously acquired securities of the portfolio company in a co-investment transaction with us. Although the conditional exemptive order has expired, the SEC’s Division of Investment Management has indicated that until March 31, 2022, it will not recommend enforcement action, to the extent that any BDC with an existing coinvestment order continues to engage in certain transactions described in the conditional exemptive order, pursuant to the same terms and conditions described therein. The Owl Rock Advisers` investment allocation policy seeks to ensure equitable allocation of investment opportunities between us and/or other funds managed by our Adviser or its affiliates. As a result of the exemptive relief, there could be significant overlap in our investment
53
portfolio and the investment portfolio of other funds managed by Owl Rock that could avail themselves of exemptive relief and that have an investment objective similar to ours.
We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and intend to elect to be taxed as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) for tax purposes under the Code. As a result, we are required to comply with various statutory and regulatory requirements, such as:
COVID-19 Developments
In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID -19 was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. In response to the outbreak, our Adviser instituted a work from home policy and began monitoring the ability of its employees to safely return to the office. In October 2021, the Adviser began a return to in-office work plan across all of its offices.
We have and continue to assess the impact of COVID-19 on our portfolio companies. We cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its duration in the United States and worldwide, the effectiveness of governmental responses designed to mitigate strain to businesses and the economy and the magnitude of the economic impact of the outbreak. The COVID-19 pandemic and preventative measures taken to contain or mitigate its spread have caused, and are continuing to cause, business shutdowns and cancellations of events and travel. In addition, while economic activity remains healthy and well improved from the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to observe supply chain interruptions, labor difficulties, commodity inflation and elements of economic and financial market instability both globally and in the United States.
We have built out our portfolio management team to include workout experts and continue to closely monitor our portfolio companies; however, we are unable to predict the duration of any business and supply-chain disruptions or labor difficulties, whether COVID-19 will negatively affect our portfolio companies’ operating results or the impact that such disruptions may have on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our Investment Framework
We are a Maryland corporation organized primarily to originate and make loans to, and make debt and equity investments in, U.S. middle market companies. Our investment objective is to generate current income, and to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. Since our Adviser and its affiliates began investment activities in April 2016 through September 30, 2021, our Adviser and its affiliates have originated $43.6 billion aggregate principal amount of investments, of which $40.9 billion aggregate principal amount of investments prior to any subsequent exits or repayments, was retained by either us or a corporation or fund advised by our Adviser or its affiliates. We seek to generate current income primarily in U.S. upper middle market companies through direct originations of senior secured loans or originations of unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, investments in equity-related securities including warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity.
We define “middle market companies” generally to mean companies with earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, or “EBITDA,” between $10 million and $250 million annually and/or annual revenue of $50 million to $2.5 billion at the time of investment, although we may on occasion invest in smaller or larger companies if an opportunity presents itself.
We expect that generally our portfolio composition will be majority debt or income producing securities, which may include “covenant-lite” loans (as defined below), with a lesser allocation to equity or equity-linked opportunities, including publicly traded debt instruments, which we may hold directly or through special purposes vehicles. These investments may include high-yield bonds, which are often referred to as “junk bonds”, and broadly syndicated loans. In addition, we may invest a portion of our portfolio in opportunistic investments, such as in large U.S. companies or foreign companies, which will not be our primary focus, but will be intended to enhance returns to our Shareholders. Our portfolio composition may fluctuate from time to time based on market conditions and interest rates. We generally intend to investment in companies with low loan-to-value ratios, which we consider to be 50% or lower.
54
Covenants are contractual restrictions that lenders place on companies to limit the corporate actions a company may pursue. Generally, the loans in which we expect to invest will have financial maintenance covenants, which are used to proactively address materially adverse changes in a portfolio company’s financial performance. However, to a lesser extent, we may invest in “covenant-lite” loans. We use the term “covenant-lite” to refer generally to loans that do not have a complete set of financial maintenance covenants. Generally, “covenant-lite” loans provide borrower companies more freedom to negatively impact lenders because their covenants are incurrence-based, which means they are only tested and can only be breached following an affirmative action of the borrower, rather than by a deterioration in the borrower’s financial condition. Accordingly, to the extent we invest in “covenant-lite” loans, we may have fewer rights against a borrower and may have a greater risk of loss on such investments as compared to investments in or exposure to loans with financial maintenance covenants.
As of September 30, 2021, our average investment size in each of our portfolio companies was approximately $19.7 million based on fair value. As of September 30, 2021, excluding certain investments that fall outside our typical borrower profile, our portfolio companies representing 87.9% of our total debt portfolio based on fair value, had weighted average annual revenue of $632 million and weighted average annual EBITDA of $140 million.
The companies in which we invest use our capital to support their growth, acquisitions, market or product expansion, refinancings and/or recapitalizations. The debt in which we invest typically is not rated by any rating agency, but if these instruments were rated, they would likely receive a rating of below investment grade (that is, below BBB- or Baa3), which is often referred to as “junk”.
Key Components of Our Results of Operations
Investments
We focus primarily on the direct origination of loans to middle market companies domiciled in the United States.
Our level of investment activity (both the number of investments and the size of each investment) can and will vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.
In addition, as part of our risk strategy on investments, we may reduce the levels of certain investments through partial sales or syndication to additional lenders.
Revenues
We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate income from dividends on either direct equity investments or equity interests obtained in connection with originating loans, such as options, warrants or conversion rights. Our debt investments typically have a term of three to ten years. As of September 30, 2021, greater than 99.9% of our debt investments based on fair value bear interest at a floating rate, subject to interest rate floors in certain cases. Interest on our debt investments is generally payable either monthly or quarterly.
Our investment portfolio consists of floating rate loans, and our credit facility bears interest at a floating rate. Macro trends in base interest rates like London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and any alternative reference rates may affect our net investment income over the long term. However, because we generally originate loans to a small number of portfolio companies each quarter, and those investments vary in size, our results in any given period, including the interest rate on investments that were sold or repaid in a period compared to the interest rate of new investments made during that period, often are idiosyncratic, and reflect the characteristics of the particular portfolio companies that we invested in or exited during the period and not necessarily any trends in our business or macro trends.
Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) as interest income using the effective yield method for term instruments and the straight-line method for revolving or delayed draw instruments. Repayments of our debt investments can reduce interest income from period to period. The frequency or volume of these repayments may fluctuate significantly. We record
55
prepayment premiums on loans as interest income. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, loan origination, structuring, or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance to our portfolio companies and possibly consulting fees.
Dividend income on equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded companies.
Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds from sales of investments. We recognize realized gains or losses on investments based on the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. We record current period changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of the management fee, performance based incentive fee, expenses reimbursable under the Administration Agreement and Investment Advisory Agreement, legal and professional fees, interest and other debt expenses and other operating expenses. The management fee and performance based incentive fee compensate our Adviser for work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing, monitoring and realizing our investments.
Except as specifically provided below, all investment professionals and staff of the Adviser, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory and management services to us, and the base compensation, bonus and benefits, and the routine overhead expenses, of such personnel allocable to such services, are provided and paid for by the Adviser. We bear our allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser (or its affiliates) to our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs (based on a percentage of time such individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to our business affairs). We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations, administration and transactions, including, but not limited to (i) investment advisory fees, including management fees and incentive fees, to the Adviser, pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement; (ii) our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement; and (iii) all other expenses of our operations and transactions including, without limitation, those relating to:
56
We expect, but cannot assure, that our general and administrative expenses will increase in dollar terms during periods of asset growth, but will decline as a percentage of total assets during such periods.
Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement
We have entered into an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Adviser, the purpose of which is to ensure that no portion of our distributions to shareholders will represent a return of capital for tax purposes. The Expense Support Agreement became effective as of November 12, 2020, the date that the Company met the minimum offering requirement.
On a quarterly basis, the Adviser shall reimburse us for “Operating Expenses” (as defined below) in an amount equal to the excess of our cumulative distributions paid to our shareholders in each quarter over “Available Operating Funds” (as defined below) received by us on account of our investment portfolio during such quarter. Any payments required to be made by the Adviser pursuant to the preceding sentence are referred to herein as an “Expense Payment”.
Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, “Operating Expenses” means all of our operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) our estimated investment company taxable income (including realized net short-term capital gains reduced by realized net long-term capital losses), (ii) our realized net capital gains (including the excess of realized net long-term capital gains over realized net short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies, if any (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included under clauses (i) and (ii) above).
The Adviser’s obligation to make an Expense Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Adviser and the right to such Expense Payment will be an asset of ours on the last business day of the applicable quarter. The Expense Payment for any quarter will be paid by the Adviser to us in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds, and/or offset against amounts due from us to the Adviser no later than the earlier of (i) the date on which we close our books for such quarter, or (ii) forty-five days after the end of such quarter.
Following any quarter in which Available Operating Funds exceed the cumulative distributions paid by us in respect of such quarter (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), we will pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, in accordance with the stipulations below, as applicable, to the Adviser, until such time as all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to us within three years prior to the last business day of such quarter have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by us are referred to as a “Reimbursement Payment”.
The amount of the Reimbursement Payment for any quarter shall equal the lesser of (i) the Excess Operating Funds in respect of such quarter and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to us within three years prior to the last business day of such quarter that have not been previously reimbursed by us to the Adviser. The payment will be reduced to the extent that such Reimbursement Payments, together with all other Reimbursement Payments paid during the fiscal year, would cause Other Operating Expenses defined as our total Operating Expenses, excluding base management fees, incentive fees, organization and offering expenses, distribution and shareholder servicing fees, financing fees and costs, interest expense, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses on an annualized basis and net of any Expense Payments received by us during the fiscal year to exceed the lesser of: (i) 1.75% of our average net assets attributable to the shares of our common stock for the fiscal year-to-date period after taking such Expense Payments into account; and (ii) the percentage of our average net assets attributable to shares of our common stock represented by Other Operating Expenses during the fiscal year in which such Expense Payment was made (provided, however, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to any Reimbursement Payment which relates to an Expense Payment made during the same fiscal year).
No Reimbursement Payment for any quarter will be made if: (1) the “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” (as defined below) declared by us at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is less than the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, or (2) our “Operating Expense Ratio” (as defined below) at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, “Effective Rate of
57
Distributions Per Share” means the annualized rate (based on a 365 day year) of regular cash distributions per share exclusive of returns of capital, distribution rate reductions due to distribution and shareholder fees, and declared special dividends or special distributions, if any. The “Operating Expense Ratio” is calculated by dividing Operating Expenses, less organizational and offering expenses, base management and incentive fees owed to Adviser, and interest expense, by our net assets.
The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by the Adviser, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. We or the Adviser will be able to terminate the Expense Support Agreement at any time, with or without notice. The Expense Support Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of (a) the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, or (b) a determination by our Board to dissolve or liquidate the Company. Upon termination of the Expense Support Agreement, we will be required to fund any Expense Payments that have not been reimbursed by us to the Adviser. As of September 30, 2021, the amount of Expense Support payments provided by our Adviser since inception is $2.6 million.
Fee Waivers
On September 30, 2020, the Adviser agreed to waive 100% of the base management fee for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Any portion of the base management fee waived will not be subject to recoupment.
On February 23, 2021, the Adviser agreed to waive 100% of the base management fee for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Any portion of the base management fee waived will not be subject to recoupment.
Reimbursement of Administrative Services
We will reimburse our Adviser for the administrative expenses necessary for its performance of services to us. However, such reimbursement will be made at an amount equal to the lower of our Adviser’s actual costs or the amount that we would be required to pay for comparable administrative services in the same geographic location. Also, such costs will be reasonably allocated to us on the basis of assets, revenues, time records or other reasonable methods. We will not reimburse our Adviser for any services for which it receives a separate fee, for example rent, depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items allocated to a controlling person of our Adviser.
Leverage
The amount of leverage we use in any period depends on a variety of factors, including cash available for investing, the cost of financing and general economic and market conditions. We have received approvals that allow us to reduce our asset coverage ratio to 150%. and in connection with their subscription agreements, our investors are required to acknowledge our ability to operate with an asset coverage ratio that may be as low as 150%. As a result, we generally will be permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to the common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, would at least be equal to 150% immediately after each such issuance. This reduced asset coverage ratio permits us to double the amount of leverage we can incur. For example, under a 150% asset coverage ratio we may borrow $2 for investment purposes of every $1 of investor equity whereas under a 200% asset coverage ratio we may only borrow $1 for investment purposes for every $1 of investor equity.
In any period, our interest expense will depend largely on the extent of our borrowing and we expect interest expense will increase as we increase our leverage over time subject to the limits of the 1940 Act. In addition, we may dedicate assets to financing facilities.
Market Trends
We believe the middle-market lending environment provides opportunities for us to meet our goal of making investments that generate attractive risk-adjusted returns based on a combination of the following factors,
Limited Availability of Capital for Middle-Market Companies. We believe that regulatory and structural changes in the market have reduced the amount of capital available to U.S. middle-market companies. In particular, we believe there are currently fewer providers of capital to middle market companies. We believe that many commercial and investment banks have, in recent years, de-emphasized their service and product offerings to middle-market businesses in favor of lending to large corporate clients and managing capital markets transactions. In addition, these lenders may be constrained in their ability to underwrite and hold bank loans and high yield securities for middle-market issuers as they seek to meet existing and future regulatory capital requirements. We also believe that there are a lack of market participants that are willing to hold meaningful amounts of certain middle-market loans. As a result, we believe our ability to minimize syndication risk for a company seeking financing by being able to hold its loans without
58
having to syndicate them, coupled with reduced capacity of traditional lenders to serve the middle-market, present an attractive opportunity to invest in middle-market companies.
Capital Markets Have Been Unable to Fill the Void in U.S. Middle Market Finance Left by Banks. While underwritten bond and syndicated loan markets have been robust in recent years, middle market companies are less able to access these markets for reasons including the following:
High Yield Market – Middle market companies generally do not issue debt in amounts large enough to be attractively sized bonds. High yield bonds are generally purchased by institutional investors who, among other things, are focused on the liquidity characteristics of the bond being issued. For example, mutual funds and exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) are significant buyers of underwritten bonds. However, mutual funds and ETFs generally require the ability to liquidate their investments quickly in order to fund investor redemptions and/or comply with regulatory requirements. Accordingly, the existence of an active secondary market for bonds is an important consideration in these entities’ initial investment decision. Because there typically is little or no active secondary market for the debt of U.S. middle market companies, mutual funds and ETFs generally do not provide debt capital to U.S. middle market companies. We believe this is likely to be a persistent problem and creates an advantage for those like us who have a more stable capital base and have the ability to invest in illiquid assets.
Syndicated Loan Market – While the syndicated loan market demand is modestly more accommodating to middle market issuers, as with bonds, loan issue size and liquidity are key drivers of institutional and, correspondingly, underwriters’ willingness to underwrite the loans. Loans arranged through a bank are done either on a “best efforts” basis or are underwritten with terms plus provisions that permit the underwriters to change certain terms, including pricing, structure, yield and tenor, otherwise known as “flex”, to successfully syndicate the loan, in the event the terms initially marketed are insufficiently attractive to investors. Furthermore, banks are generally reluctant to underwrite middle market loans because the arrangement fees they may earn on the placement of the debt generally are not sufficient to meet the banks’ return hurdles. Loans provided by companies such as ours provide certainty to issuers in that we can commit to a given amount of debt on specific terms, at stated coupons and with agreed upon fees. As we are the ultimate holder of the loans, we do not require market “flex” or other arrangements that banks may require when acting on an agency basis.
Robust Demand for Debt Capital. We believe U.S. middle market companies will continue to require access to debt capital to refinance existing debt, support growth and finance acquisitions. In addition, we believe the large amount of uninvested capital held by funds of private equity firms, estimated by Preqin Ltd., an alternative assets industry data and research company, to be $1.5 trillion as of October 2020, will continue to drive deal activity. We expect that private equity sponsors will continue to pursue acquisitions and leverage their equity investments with secured loans provided by companies such as us.
The Middle Market is a Large Addressable Market. According to GE Capital’s National Center for the Middle Market 2nd quarter 2020 Middle Market Indicator, there are approximately 200,000 U.S. middle market companies, which have approximately 48 million aggregate employees. Moreover, the U.S. middle market accounts for one-third of private sector gross domestic product (“GDP”). GE defines U.S. middle market companies as those between $10 million and $1 billion in annual revenue, which we believe has significant overlap with our definition of U.S. middle market companies.
Attractive Investment Dynamics. An imbalance between the supply of, and demand for, middle market debt capital creates attractive pricing dynamics. We believe the directly negotiated nature of middle market financings also generally provides more favorable terms to the lender, including stronger covenant and reporting packages, better call protection, and lender-protective change of control provisions. Additionally, we believe BDC managers’ expertise in credit selection and ability to manage through credit cycles has generally resulted in BDCs experiencing lower loss rates than U.S. commercial banks through credit cycles. Further, we believe that historical middle market default rates have been lower, and recovery rates have been higher, as compared to the larger market capitalization, broadly distributed market, leading to lower cumulative losses.
Conservative Capital Structures. Following the credit crisis, which we define broadly as occurring between mid-2007 and mid-2009, lenders have generally required borrowers to maintain more equity as a percentage of their total capitalization, specifically to protect lenders during economic downturns. With more conservative capital structures, U.S. middle market companies have exhibited higher levels of cash flows available to service their debt. In addition, U.S. middle market companies often are characterized by simpler capital structures than larger borrowers, which facilitates a streamlined underwriting process and, when necessary, restructuring process.
Attractive Opportunities in Investments in Loans. We invest in senior secured or unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, equity and equity-related securities. We believe that opportunities in senior secured loans are significant because of the floating rate structure of most senior secured debt issuances and because of the strong defensive characteristics of these types of investments. Given the current low interest rate environment, we believe that debt issues with floating
59
interest rates offer a superior return profile as compared with fixed-rate investments, since floating rate structures are generally less susceptible to declines in value experienced by fixed-rate securities in a rising interest rate environment. Senior secured debt also provides strong defensive characteristics. Senior secured debt has priority in payment among an issuer’s security holders whereby holders are due to receive payment before junior creditors and equity holders. Further, these investments are secured by the issuer’s assets, which may provide protection in the event of a default.
Portfolio and Investment Activity
As of September 30, 2021, based on fair value, our portfolio consisted of 84.2% first lien senior secured debt investments (of which we consider 65% to be unitranche debt investments (including “last-out” portions of such loans)), 14.2% second-lien senior secured debt investments, 0.1% unsecured debt investments, 0.8% preferred equity investments, and 0.7% common equity investments.
As of September 30, 2021, our weighted average total yield of the portfolio at fair value and amortized cost was 7.0% and 7.0%, respectively, and our weighted average yield of debt and income producing securities at fair value and amortized cost was 7.0% and 7.0%, respectively.
As of September 30, 2021 we had investments in 73 portfolio companies with an aggregate fair value of $1,441.4 million. As of September 30, 2021, we had net leverage of 1.46x debt-to-equity.
Based on current market conditions, the pace of our investment activities, including originations and repayments, may vary. Currently, the strength of the financing and merger and acquisitions markets, and the current low interest rate environment, has led to increased originations, an active pipeline of investment opportunities and an increased demand for unitranche debt investments.

The weighted average yield of our debt and income producing securities is not the same as a return on investment for our shareholders but, rather, relates to a portion of our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of our and our subsidiaries’ fees and expenses. The weighted average yield was computed using the effective interest rates as of each respective date,
62
including accretion of original issue discount and loan origination fees, but excluding investments on non-accrual status, if any. There can be no assurance that the weighted average yield will remain at its current level.
Our Adviser monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if they are meeting their respective business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action with respect to each portfolio company. Our Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:
As part of the monitoring process, our Adviser employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Adviser rates the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 5. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account the performance of the portfolio company’s business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The rating system is as follows:
Investment Rating |
| Description |
1 |
| Investments rated 1 involve the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The borrower is performing above expectations, and the trends and risk factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally favorable;
|
2 |
| Investments rated 2 involve an acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of origination or acquisition. The borrower is generally performing as expected and the risk factors are neutral to favorable. All investments or acquired investments in new portfolio companies are initially assessed a rating of 2;
|
3 |
| Investments rated 3 involve a borrower performing below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has increased somewhat since origination or acquisition;
|
4 |
| Investments rated 4 involve a borrower performing materially below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has increased materially since origination or acquisition. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments may be past due (but generally not more than 120 days past due); and
|
5 |
| Investments rated 5 involve a borrower performing substantially below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has increased substantially since origination or acquisition. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Loans rated 5 are not anticipated to be repaid in full and we will reduce the fair market value of the loan to the amount we anticipate will be recovered. |
Our Adviser rates the investments in our portfolio at least quarterly and it is possible that the rating of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments rated 3, 4 or 5, our Adviser enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued 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 is paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate income from dividends on either direct equity investments or equity interest obtained in connection with originated loans, such as options, warrants or conversion rights. Included in interest income are other fees such as prepayment fees and accelerated amortization of upfront fees from unscheduled paydowns. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, PIK interest and dividends earned was $1.1 million and $1.3 million, representing approximately 7.0% and 6.8% of investment income, respectively. Additionally, we were initially capitalized on September 30, 2020 and commenced investing activities on November 10, 2020. As a result, comparisons may not be meaningful.
