At June 30, 2018, we had equity ownership in approximately 73.7% of our LMM investments 2. The weighted‐average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates for all debt investments at cost as of June 30, 2018, including accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt instruments and any debt investments on non‐accrual status. As of June 30, 2018, there were no investments on non‐accrual status. Weighted‐average annual effective yield is higher than what an investor in shares in our common stock will realize on its investment because it does not reflect our expenses or any sales load paid by an investor. 3. Weighted average metrics are calculated using investment cost basis weighting 4. Includes CSWC debt investments only. Calculated as the amount of each portfolio company’s debt (including CSWC’s position and debt senior or pari passu to CSWC’s position, but excluding debt subordinated to CSWC’s position) in the capital structure divided by each portfolio company’s adjusted EBITDA. Management uses this metric as a guide to evaluate relative risk of its position in each portfolio debt investment Page 10
