PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
This supplement replaces in its entirety the third paragraph in the section entitled “Prospectus Summary-Credit Facility” beginning on page 9 of the Prospectus (as supplemented on June 5, 2014 and July 25, 2014) with the following:
 
On March 11, 2014, we entered into a $70 million senior secured credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “Syndicated Credit Facility”) with Capital One as the administrative agent, and other banks as participants (together with Capital One, the “Lenders”) in the Facility. This Syndicated Credit Facility amends and restates in its entirety the Credit Facility. In connection with the entry into the Syndicated Credit Facility, on March 11, 2014, we borrowed $20 million, $13 million of which was used to satisfy our obligations under the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Syndicated Credit Facility bear interest, subject to the Company’s election, on a per annum basis equal to (i) the adjusted LIBOR rate plus 2.75% or (ii) the base rate plus 1.75%. The base rate is defined as the higher of (a) the prime rate or (b) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus 0.5%. The adjusted LIBOR rate is defined in the credit agreement for the Syndicated Credit Facility as the LIBOR rate plus such amount as adjusted for statutory reserve requirements for Eurocurrency liabilities. The Company pays unused commitment fees of 0.25% per annum on the unused lender commitment under the Syndicated Credit Facility if more than 50% of the Syndicated Credit Facility is being used and a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on the unused lender commitments under the Syndicated Credit Facility if less than 50% of the Syndicated Credit Facility is being used. The Syndicated Credit Facility has a three year term, with two one-year extension options, subject to approval of the Lenders. Additionally, the Syndicated Credit Facility has an accordion provision allowing borrowing capacity to increase to $150 million. Borrowings under the Syndicated Credit Facility are secured by all of the Company’s assets, other than the assets of certain permitted structured subsidiaries (the “Structured Subsidiaries”), as well as all of the assets and a pledge of equity ownership interests, of any future subsidiaries of the Company (other than Structured Subsidiaries), which would be joined as





guarantors. The agreement for the Syndicated Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants usual and customary for credit facilities of this nature, including, but not limited to: (i) maintaining an interest coverage ratio of at least 2.0 to 1.0 (ii) maintaining an asset coverage ratio of at least 2.25 to 1.0 and (iii) maintaining a minimum consolidated tangible net worth, excluding Structured Subsidiaries, of at least $50 million. Additionally, we must provide information to Capital One on a regular basis, preserve our corporate existence, comply with applicable laws, including the 1940 Act, pay obligations when they become due, and invest the proceeds of the Offering in accordance with our investment objectives and strategies (subject to certain limitations, as set forth in the Syndicated Credit Facility). Further, the Syndicated Credit Facility contains limitations on incurrence of other indebtedness (other than by Structured Subsidiaries), limitations on industry concentration, an anti-hoarding provision to protect the collateral under the Syndicated Credit Facility, as well as usual and customary default provisions including, without limitation: (i) a default in the payment of interest and principal; (ii) insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company; (iii) a material adverse change in our business; or (iv) breach of any covenant, representation or warranty in the loan agreement or other credit documents and failure to cure such breach within defined periods. Additionally, the Syndicated Credit Facility requires us to obtain written approval from the administrative agent prior to entering into any material amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Advisory Agreement. The Syndicated Credit Facility has a maturity date of March 11, 2017. On September 22, 2014, we and the Lenders entered into a Second Amendment to the Syndicated Credit Facility that increased the revolver commitments to $105 million.
