Staff Comments to Registration Statement
1. | Comment: Please confirm that the Merger continues to not be probable. |
Response: Although the Merger is contemplated, as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Board of Trustees has yet to approve the Merger and neither the Fund nor the Private BDC has entered into a definitive merger agreement. The Board of Trustees have scheduled a meeting primarily to discuss the end of year RIC distribution requirements but also to generally discuss the offering, distribution networks and the potential timing of the Merger. Accordingly, the Fund continues to believe that the Merger is not probable.
2. | Comment: On page 82, the disclosure states, “If the Merger does not occur, the Board’s current intent is to begin to wind down and/or liquidate and dissolve the Fund in an orderly manner.” Please include a bullet on the cover page with such disclosure. |
Response: The Fund undertakes to include the below bullet in its definitive prospectus filing pursuant to Rule 424 if the Merger has yet to occur.
• | If the Merger does not occur, the Board’s current intent is to begin to wind down and/or liquidate and dissolve the Fund in an orderly manner. |
3. | Comment: On page 154 of the Registration Statement, please delete “, generally” so that the sentence reads, “Repurchases of shares from shareholders by the Fund will be paid in cash promptly after the expiration of the tender offer within five business days of the last date that shareholders may tender shares for the repurchase offer.” |
Response: The Fund undertakes to update the disclosure in accordance with the comment in its definitive prospectus filing pursuant to Rule 424.
