    <p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in">We are an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the &#8220;1940 Act.&#8221; Our primary investment objective is to generate high current income, with a secondary objective to generate capital appreciation. We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing primarily in equity and junior debt tranches of collateralized loan obligations, or &#8220;CLOs,&#8221; that are collateralized by a portfolio consisting primarily of below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans with a large number of distinct underlying borrowers across various industry sectors. We may also invest in other related securities and instruments or other securities and instruments that our investment adviser believes are consistent with our investment objectives, including senior debt tranches of CLOs, loan accumulation facilities, or &#8220;LAFs,&#8221; and securities issued by other securitization vehicles, such as credit-linked notes and collateralized bond obligations, or &#8220;CBOs,&#8221; and synthetic investments, such as significant risk transfer securities and credit risk transfer securities issued by banks or other financial institutions. LAFs are short- to medium-term facilities often provided by the bank that will serve as the placement agent or arranger on a CLO transaction. LAFs typically incur leverage between four and six times prior to a CLO&#8217;s pricing. The CLO securities in which we primarily seek to invest are unrated or rated below investment grade and are considered speculative with respect to timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. Unrated and below investment grade securities are also sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk&#8221; securities. In addition, the CLO equity and junior debt securities in which we invest are highly leveraged (with CLO equity securities typically being leveraged ten times), which magnifies our risk of loss on such investments. See <strong>&#8220;<i>Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Investments-We may leverage our portfolio, which would magnify the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and will increase the risk of investing in us</i></strong>&#8221; in the accompanying prospectus.</p>

We determine the NAV per share of our common stock on a quarterly basis.

The last reported closing sales price for our common stock as of March&#160;31, 2025 was $8.10 per share, representing a 3.34% discount to the NAV per share of our common stock as of December&#160;31, 2024. Management&#8217;s unaudited estimate of the range of the NAV per share of our common stock as of March&#160;31, 2025 was between $7.18 and $7.28. In addition, management's unaudited estimate of the range of our net investment income and realized gain/loss per share of our common stock for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was between $0.31 and $0.35.</p>

Investors who purchase shares of the common stock at a premium may also may be subject to a heighted risk of loss under certain circumstances. Shares of common stock of closed-end management investment companies that are listed on an exchange frequently trade at a discount to their NAV. If our shares of common stock trade at a discount to our NAV, it will likely increase the risk of loss for purchasers of our securities.</strong></p>

We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or &#8220;RIC,&#8221; under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the &#8220;Code,&#8221; commencing with our tax year ended November&#160;30, 2014.</p>

      <p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in">Our primary investment objective is to generate high current income, with a secondary objective to generate capital appreciation. We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing primarily in equity and junior debt tranches of CLOs that are collateralized by a portfolio consisting primarily of below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans with a large number of distinct underlying borrowers across various industry sectors. We may also invest in other related securities and instruments or other securities and instruments that the Adviser believes are consistent with our investment objectives, including senior debt tranches of CLOs, LAFs, securities issued by other securitization vehicles, such as credit-linked notes and CBOs, and synthetic investments, such as significant risk transfer securities and credit risk transfer securities issued by banks or other financial institutions. We may also acquire securities issued by other investments companies, including closed-end funds, business development companies (&#8220;BDCs&#8221;), mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (&#8220;ETFs&#8221;), and may otherwise invest indirectly in securities consistent with our investment objectives. The amount that we will invest in other securities and instruments, which may include investments in debt and other securities issued by CLOs collateralized by non-U.S. loans or securities of other collective investment vehicles, will vary from time to time and, as such, may constitute a material part of our portfolio on any given date, all as based on the Adviser&#8217;s assessment of prevailing market conditions.</p>

    <p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in">The CLO securities in which we primarily seek to invest are rated below investment grade or, in the case of CLO equity securities, are unrated, and are considered speculative with respect to timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. Unrated and below investment grade securities are also sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk&#8221; securities. In addition, the CLO equity and junior debt securities in which we invest are highly leveraged (with CLO equity securities typically being leveraged ten times), which magnifies our risk of loss on such investments. LAFs are short- to medium-term facilities often provided by the bank that will serve as the placement agent or arranger on a CLO transaction. LAFs typically incur leverage between four and six times prior to a CLO&#8217;s pricing.</p>

Our investments in derivatives, other investment companies, and other instruments designed to obtain indirect exposure to credit and credit-related instruments are counted towards our 80% investment policy to the extent such instruments have similar economic characteristics to the investments included within that policy.

We are permitted to obtain leverage using any form of financial leverage instruments, including funds borrowed from banks or other financial institutions, margin facilities, notes or preferred stock and leverage attributable to reverse repurchase agreements or similar transactions. Over the long term, management expects us to operate under normal market conditions generally with leverage within a range of 27.5% to 37.5% of total assets, although the actual amount of our leverage will vary over time.

With respect to senior securities that are stocks (i.e., shares of our Preferred Stock), we are required under current law to have an asset coverage of at least 200%, as measured at the time of the issuance of any such shares of Preferred Stock and calculated as the ratio of our total assets (less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) over the aggregate amount of our outstanding senior securities representing indebtedness plus the aggregate liquidation preference of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock.</p>

As of December&#160;31, 2024, our asset coverage ratios in respect of (i)&#160;senior securities representing indebtedness and (ii)&#160;our outstanding Preferred Stock, each as calculated pursuant to Section&#160;18 of the 1940 Act, were 506% and 263%, respectively. In the event we fail to meet our applicable asset coverage ratio requirements, we may not be able to incur additional debt and/or issue additional Preferred Stock, and could be required by law or otherwise to sell a portion of our investments to repay some debt or redeem shares of Preferred Stock (if any) when it is disadvantageous to do so, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, and we may not be able to make certain distributions or pay dividends of an amount necessary to continue to qualify as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.</p>

Subject to the limitations under the 1940 Act, we may incur additional leverage opportunistically or not at all and may choose to increase or decrease our leverage. In addition, we may borrow for temporary, emergency or other purposes as permitted under the 1940 Act, which indebtedness would be in addition to the asset coverage requirements described above. By leveraging our investment portfolio, we may create an opportunity for increased net income and capital appreciation. However, the use of leverage also involves significant risks and expenses, which will be borne entirely by our common stockholders, and our leverage strategy may not be successful. For example, the more leverage is employed, the more likely a substantial change will occur in the NAV per share of our common stock. Accordingly, any event that adversely affects the value of an investment would be magnified to the extent leverage is utilized.

We may purchase and sell a variety of derivative instruments, including exchange-listed and over-the-counter, or &#8220;OTC,&#8221; options, futures, options on futures, swaps and similar instruments, various interest rate transactions, such as swaps, caps, floors or collars, and credit transactions and credit default swaps. We also may purchase and sell derivative instruments that combine features of these instruments. Collectively, we refer to these financial management techniques as &#8220;Derivative Transactions.&#8221; Our use of Derivative Transactions, if any, will generally be deemed to create leverage for us and involves significant risks. No assurance can be given that our strategy and use of derivatives will be successful, and our investment performance could diminish compared with what it would have been if Derivative Transactions were not used. See &#8220;<strong><i>Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Investments-We are subject to risks associated with any hedging or Derivative Transactions in which we participate</i></strong>&#8221; in the accompanying prospectus.</p>

Holders of our common stock who receive distributions in the form of additional shares of our common stock are nonetheless subject to the applicable federal, state or local taxes on the reinvested distribution but will not receive a corresponding cash distribution with which to pay any applicable tax. The DRIP agent (acting on our behalf) will primarily use newly-issued, authorized shares of common stock to implement reinvestment of distributions under the DRIP. Distributions that are reinvested through the issuance of new shares increase our stockholders&#8217; equity on which a management fee is payable to the Adviser. If we declare a distribution payable in cash, holders of shares of our common stock who opt-out of participation in the DRIP (including those holders whose shares are held through a broker or other nominee who has opted out of participation in the DRIP) generally will receive such distributions in cash.

Until appropriate investments or other uses can be found, we may invest in temporary investments, such as cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less, which we expect will have returns substantially lower than the returns that we anticipate earning from investments contemplated by our principal investment strategy, such as CLO securities and related investments.

We will effect a redemption on the date fixed by us, which date will not be later than 90 calendar days after the Series&#160;D Asset Coverage Cure Date, except that if we do not have funds legally available for the redemption of all of the required number of shares of preferred stock which have been designated to be redeemed or we otherwise are unable to effect such redemptions on or prior to 90 calendar days after the Series&#160;D Asset Coverage Cure Date, we will redeem those shares of preferred stock which we were unable to redeem on the earliest practicable date on which we are able to effect such redemption.</p>

We may provide in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption relating to a redemption contemplated to be effected pursuant to the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that we will not be required to effect such redemption unless each such condition has been satisfied. No defect in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption or delivery thereof will affect the validity of redemption proceedings except as required by applicable law.</p>

externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has registered as an investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the &#8220;1940 Act.&#8221; Our primary investment objective is to generate high current income, with
a secondary objective to generate capital appreciation. We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing primarily in equity
and junior debt tranches of collateralized loan obligations, or &#8220;CLOs,&#8221; that are collateralized by a portfolio consisting
primarily of below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans with a large number of distinct underlying borrowers across various industry
sectors. We may also invest in other related securities and instruments or other securities and instruments that the Adviser believes
are consistent with our investment objectives, including senior debt tranches of CLOs, loan accumulation facilities, or &#8220;LAFs&#8221;
and securities issued by other securitization vehicles, such as credit-linked notes and collateralized bond obligations, or &#8220;CBOs,&#8221;
and synthetic investments, such as significant risk transfer securities and credit risk transfer securities issued by banks or other financial
institutions. LAFs are short- to medium-term facilities often provided by the bank that will serve as the placement agent or arranger
on a CLO transaction. LAFs typically incur leverage between four and six times prior to a CLO&#8217;s pricing. The CLO securities in which
we primarily seek to invest are unrated or rated below investment grade and are considered speculative with respect to timely payment
of interest and repayment of principal. Unrated and below investment grade securities are also sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk&#8221;
securities. In addition, the CLO equity and junior debt securities in which we invest are highly leveraged (with CLO equity securities
typically being leveraged ten times), which magnifies our risk of loss on such investments.</p><div>

externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has registered as an investment company under the 1940
Act. We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or &#8220;RIC,&#8221; under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the &#8220;Code,&#8221; commencing with our tax year ended November&#160;30, 2014.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><span style="color: #231F20">Our
primary investment objective is to generate high current income, with a secondary objective to generate capital appreciation. We seek
to achieve our investment objectives by investing primarily in equity and junior debt tranches of CLOs that are collateralized by a portfolio
consisting primarily of below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans with a large number of distinct underlying borrowers across various
industry sectors. We may also invest in other related securities and instruments or other securities and instruments that the Adviser
believes are consistent with our investment objectives, including senior debt tranches of CLOs, LAFs, securities issued by other securitization
vehicles, such as credit-linked notes and CBOs, and synthetic investments, such as significant risk transfer securities and credit risk
transfer securities issued by banks or other financial institutions. We may also acquire securities issued by other investment companies,
including closed-end funds, business development companies (&#8220;BDCs&#8221;), mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (&#8220;ETFs&#8221;),
and may otherwise invest indirectly in securities consistent with our investment objectives. </span>The amount that we will invest in
other securities and instruments, which may include investments in debt and other securities issued by CLOs collateralized by non-U.S.
loans or securities of other collective investment vehicles, will vary from time to time and, as such, may constitute a material part
of our portfolio on any given date, all as based on the Adviser&#8217;s assessment of prevailing market conditions.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The CLO securities in which
we primarily seek to invest are rated below investment grade or, in the case of CLO equity securities, are unrated, and are considered
speculative with respect to timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. Unrated and below investment grade securities are also
sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk&#8221; securities. In addition, the CLO equity and junior debt securities in which we invest are
highly leveraged (with CLO equity securities typically being leveraged ten times), which magnifies our risk of loss on such investments.
LAFs are short- to medium-term facilities often provided by the bank that will serve as the placement agent or arranger on a CLO transaction.
LAFs typically incur leverage between four and six times prior to a CLO&#8217;s pricing.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">These investment objectives
and strategies are not fundamental policies of ours and may be changed by our board of directors without prior approval of our stockholders.

(<i>i.e.</i>, acquiring securities at the inception of a CLO), we seek to invest in CLO securities that the Adviser believes have the
potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns and to outperform other similar CLO securities issued within the respective vintage
period. In the secondary CLO market (<i>i.e.</i>, acquiring existing CLO securities), we seek to invest in CLO securities that the Adviser
believes have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns.</p>

In particular, the Adviser believes that, although typically exercised only a minority of the time in the Adviser&#8217;s experience,
the protective rights associated with holding a majority position in a CLO equity tranche (such as the ability to call the CLO after the
non-call period, to refinance/reprice certain CLO debt tranches after a period of time and to influence potential amendments to the governing
documents of the CLO) may reduce our risk in these investments. We may acquire a majority position in a CLO tranche directly, or we may
benefit from the advantages of a majority position where both we and other accounts managed by the Adviser collectively hold a majority
position, subject to any restrictions on our ability to invest alongside such other accounts. See <b><i>&#8220;Conflicts of Interest &#8212;

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Our investment portfolio
is comprised primarily of investments in the equity and junior debt tranches of CLOs. The CLOs that we primarily target are securitization
vehicles that pool portfolios of primarily below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans. Such pools of underlying assets are often
referred to as a CLO&#8217;s &#8220;collateral.&#8221; While the vast majority of the portfolio of most CLOs consists of senior secured
loans, many CLOs enable the CLO collateral manager to invest up to 10% of the portfolio in assets that are not first lien senior secured
loans, including second lien loans, unsecured loans, senior secured bonds and senior unsecured bonds.</p>


<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p>


<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">CLOs are generally required
to hold a portfolio of assets that is highly diversified by underlying borrower and industry and that is subject to a variety of asset
concentration limitations. Most CLOs are non-static, revolving structures that generally allow for reinvestment over a specific period
of time (the &#8220;reinvestment period&#8221;) which is typically up to five years. The terms and covenants of a typical CLO structure
are, with certain exceptions, based primarily on the cash flow generated by, and the par value (as opposed to the market price or fair
value) of, the collateral. These covenants include collateral coverage tests, interest coverage tests and collateral quality tests.</p>


<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p>


<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">A CLO funds the purchase
of a portfolio of primarily senior secured loans via the issuance of CLO equity and debt securities in the form of multiple, primarily
floating rate, debt tranches. The CLO debt tranches typically are rated &#8220;AAA&#8221; (or its equivalent) at the most senior level
down to &#8220;BB&#8221; or &#8220;B&#8221; (or its equivalent), which is below investment grade, at the junior level by Moody&#8217;s
Investors Service,&#160;Inc., or &#8220;Moody&#8217;s,&#8221; S&amp;P Global Ratings, or &#8220;S&amp;P,&#8221; and/or Fitch Ratings,&#160;Inc.,
or &#8220;Fitch.&#8221; The interest rate on the CLO debt tranches is the lowest at the AAA-level and generally increases at each level
down the rating scale. The CLO equity tranche is unrated and typically represents approximately 8% to 11% of a CLO&#8217;s capital structure.
Below investment grade and unrated securities are sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk&#8221; securities. The diagram below is for illustrative
purposes only and highlights a hypothetical structure intended to depict a typical CLO. A minority of CLOs also include a B-rated debt
tranche (in which we may invest), and the structure of CLOs in which we invest may otherwise vary from this example. The left column represents
the CLO&#8217;s assets, which support the liabilities and equity in the right column. The right column shows the various classes of debt
and equity issued by the hypothetical CLO in order of seniority as to rights in payments from the assets. The percentage ranges appearing
below the rating of each class represents the percent such class comprises of the overall &#8220;capital stack&#8221; (i.e., total debt
and equity issued by the CLO).</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">CLOs have two priority-of-payment
schedules (commonly called &#8220;waterfalls&#8221;), which are detailed in a CLO&#8217;s indenture and govern how cash generated from
a CLO&#8217;s underlying collateral is distributed to the CLO&#8217;s equity and debt investors. The interest waterfall applies to interest
payments received on a CLO&#8217;s underlying collateral. The principal waterfall applies to cash generated from principal on the underlying
collateral, primarily through loan repayments and the proceeds from loan sales. Through the interest waterfall, any excess interest-related
cash flow available after the required quarterly interest payments to CLO debt investors are made and certain CLO expenses (such as administration
and collateral management fees) are paid is then distributed to the CLO&#8217;s equity investors each quarter, subject to compliance with
certain tests.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">A CLO&#8217;s indenture typically
requires that the maturity dates of a CLO&#8217;s assets, typically five to eight years from the date of issuance of a senior secured
loan, be shorter than the maturity date of the CLO&#8217;s liabilities, typically 12 to 13 years from the date of issuance. However, CLO
investors do face reinvestment risk with respect to a CLO&#8217;s underlying portfolio. In addition, in most CLO transactions, CLO debt
investors are subject to prepayment risk in that the holders of a majority of the equity tranche can direct a call or refinancing of a
CLO, which would cause the CLO&#8217;s outstanding CLO debt securities to be repaid at par. See &#8220;<b><i>Risk Factors</i></b>.&#8221;</p>

leverage instruments, including funds borrowed from banks or other financial institutions, margin facilities, notes or Preferred Stock
and leverage attributable to reverse repurchase agreements or similar transactions. Over the long term, management expects us to operate
under normal market conditions generally with leverage within a range of 27.5% to 37.5% of total assets, although the actual amount of
our leverage will vary over time. Certain instruments that create leverage are considered to be senior securities under the 1940 Act.</p>

our leverage, including the outstanding Notes and the Preferred Stock, represented approximately 38.0% of our total assets (less current

of our Series&#160;AB Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock from January&#160;1, 2025 through March&#160;31, 2025, our leverage, including
the outstanding Notes and the Preferred Stock, represented approximately 38.3% of our total assets (less current liabilities) as of February&#160;28,
2025 (based on management&#8217;s unaudited estimate of the NAV per share of our common stock as of such date). As of December&#160;31,
2024, our asset coverage ratios in respect of (i)&#160;senior securities representing indebtedness and (ii)&#160;our outstanding Preferred
Stock, each as calculated pursuant to Section&#160;18 of the 1940 Act, were 506% and 263%, respectively. In the event we fail to meet
our applicable asset coverage ratio requirements, we may not be able to incur additional debt and/or issue additional Preferred Stock,
and could be required by law or otherwise to sell a portion of our investments to repay some debt or redeem shares of Preferred Stock
(if any) when it is disadvantageous to do so, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, and we may not be able to
make certain distributions or pay dividends of an amount necessary to continue to qualify as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">We expect that we will, or
that we may need to, raise additional capital in the future to fund our continued growth, and we may do so by entering into a credit facility,
issuing additional shares of Preferred Stock or debt securities or through other leveraging instruments. Subject to the limitations under
the 1940 Act, we may incur additional leverage opportunistically and may choose to increase or decrease our leverage. In addition, we
may borrow for temporary, emergency or other purposes as permitted under the 1940 Act, which indebtedness would be in addition to the
asset coverage requirements described above. By leveraging our investment portfolio, we may create an opportunity for increased net income
and capital appreciation. However, the use of leverage also involves significant risks and expenses, which will be borne entirely by our
stockholders, and our leverage strategy may not be successful. For example, the more leverage is employed, the more likely a substantial
change will occur in the NAV per share of our common stock. Accordingly, any event that adversely affects the value of an investment would
be magnified to the extent leverage is utilized. See <b><i>&#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; </i></b>and see also &#8220;<b><i>Business&#8212;&#8201;Our

</i></b>We may engage in &#8220;Derivative Transactions,&#8221; as described below, from time to time. To the extent we engage in Derivative
Transactions, we expect to do so to hedge against interest rate, credit, currency and/or other risks, or for other investment or risk
management purposes. We may use Derivative Transactions for investment purposes to the extent consistent with our investment objectives
if the Adviser deems it appropriate to do so. We may purchase and sell a variety of derivative instruments, including exchange-listed
and over-the-counter, or &#8220;OTC,&#8221; options, futures, options on futures, swaps and similar instruments, various interest rate
transactions, such as swaps, caps, floors or collars, and credit transactions and credit default swaps. We also may purchase and sell
derivative instruments that combine features of these instruments. Collectively, we refer to these financial management techniques as
&#8220;Derivative Transactions.&#8221; Our use of Derivative Transactions, if any, will generally be deemed to create leverage for us
and involves significant risks. No assurance can be given that our strategy and use of derivatives will be successful, and our investment
performance could diminish compared with what it would have been if Derivative Transactions were not used. See <b><i>&#8220;Risk Factors&#8221;</i></b>.</p>

Position. </i></b>We may take a temporary defensive position and invest all or a substantial portion of our total assets in cash or cash
equivalents, government securities or short-term fixed income securities during periods in which we believe that adverse market, economic,
political or other conditions make it advisable to maintain a temporary defensive position. As the CLOs and LAFs in which we invest are
generally illiquid in nature, we may not be able to dispose of such investments and take a defensive position. To the extent that we invest
defensively, we likely will not achieve our investment objectives.</p>

the fulfillment of which obligations may not be in the best interests of us or our stockholders. Further, certain of our stockholders
are affiliated with our Adviser or may from time to time have business relationships with the Adviser. In such cases, such stockholders

Adviser to act in the best interests of the Adviser and its client accounts (including us), act in good faith and in an ethical manner,
avoid conflicts of interests with the client accounts to the extent reasonably possible and identify and manage conflicts of interest
to the extent that they arise. Personnel subject to each code of ethics may invest in securities for their personal investment accounts,

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in; color: #231F20">We obtain
exposure to underlying senior secured loans through our investments in CLOs, but may obtain such exposure directly or indirectly through
other means from time to time. Such loans may become nonperforming or impaired for a variety of reasons. Nonperforming or impaired loans
may require substantial workout negotiations or restructuring that may entail a substantial reduction in the interest rate and/or a substantial
write-down of the principal of the loan. In addition, because of the unique and customized nature of a loan agreement and the private
syndication of a loan, certain loans may not be purchased or sold as easily as publicly traded securities, and, historically, the trading
volume in the loan market has been small relative to other markets. Loans may encounter trading delays due to their unique and customized
nature, and transfers may require the consent of an agent bank and/or borrower. Risks associated with senior secured loans include the
fact that prepayments generally may occur at any time without premium or penalty.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in; color: #231F20">In addition,
the portfolios of certain CLOs in which we invest may contain middle market loans. Loans to middle market companies may carry more inherent
risks than loans to larger, publicly traded entities. These companies generally have more limited access to capital and higher funding
costs, may be in a weaker financial position, may need more capital to expand or compete, and may be unable to obtain financing from public
capital markets or from traditional sources, such as commercial banks. Middle market companies typically have narrower product lines and
smaller market shares than large companies. Therefore, they tend to be more vulnerable to competitors&#8217; actions and market conditions,
as well as general economic downturns. These companies may also experience substantial variations in operating results. The success of
a middle market business may also depend on the management talents and efforts of one or two persons or a small group of persons. The
death, disability or resignation of one or more of these persons could have a material adverse impact on the obligor. Accordingly, loans
made to middle market companies may involve higher risks than loans made to companies that have greater financial resources or are otherwise
able to access traditional credit sources. Middle market loans are less liquid and have a smaller trading market than the market for broadly
syndicated loans and may have default rates or recovery rates that differ (and may be better or worse) than has been the case for broadly
syndicated loans or investment grade securities. There can be no assurance as to the levels of defaults and/or recoveries that may be
experienced with respect to middle market loans in any CLO in which we may invest. As a consequence of the forgoing factors, the securities
issued by CLOs that primarily invest in middle market loans (or hold significant portions thereof) are generally considered to be a riskier
investment than securities issued by CLOs that primarily invest in broadly syndicated loans.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in; color: #231F20">Covenant-lite
loans may comprise a significant portion of the senior secured loans underlying the CLOs in which we invest. Over the past decade, the
senior secured loan market has evolved from one in which covenant-lite loans represented a minority of the market to one in which such
loans represent a significant majority of the market. 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&#8217;s financial condition. Accordingly, to the extent that the
CLOs that we invest in hold covenant-lite loans, our CLOs 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.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in; color: #231F20">Our investments
consist primarily of CLO securities, and we may invest in other related structured finance securities. CLOs and structured finance securities
are generally backed by an asset or a pool of assets (typically senior secured loans and other credit-related assets in the case of a
CLO) that serve as collateral. We and other investors in CLO and related structured finance securities ultimately bear the credit risk
of the underlying collateral. In most CLOs, the structured finance securities are issued in multiple tranches, offering investors various
maturity and credit risk characteristics, often categorized as senior, mezzanine and subordinated/equity according to their degree of
risk. If there are defaults or the relevant collateral otherwise underperforms, scheduled payments to senior tranches of such securities
take precedence over those of junior tranches which are the focus of our investment strategy, and scheduled payments to junior tranches
have a priority in right of payment to subordinated/equity tranches.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in; color: #231F20">CLO and other
structured finance securities may present risks similar to those of the other types of debt obligations and, in fact, such risks may be
of greater significance in the case of CLO and other structured finance securities. For example, investments in structured vehicles, including
CBOs and equity and junior debt securities issued by CLOs, involve risks, including credit risk and market risk. Changes in interest rates
and credit quality may cause significant price fluctuations. A CBO is a trust which is often backed by a diversified pool of high risk,
below investment grade fixed income securities. The collateral can be from many different types of fixed income securities, such as high
yield debt, residential privately issued mortgage-related securities, commercial privately issued mortgage related securities, trust preferred
securities and emerging market debt. The pool of high yield securities underlying CBOs is typically separated into tranches representing
different degrees of credit quality. The higher quality tranches have greater degrees of protection and pay lower interest rates, whereas
the lower tranches, with greater risk, pay higher interest rates.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in; color: #231F20">In addition
to the general risks associated with investing in debt securities, CLO securities carry additional risks, including: (1)&#160;the possibility
that distributions from collateral assets will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (2)&#160;the quality of the collateral
may decline in value or default; (3)&#160;our investments in CLO equity and junior debt tranches will likely be subordinate in right of
payment to other senior classes of CLO debt; and (4)&#160;the complex structure of a particular security may not be fully understood at
the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results. Changes in the collateral held by a
CLO may cause payments on the instruments we hold to be reduced, either temporarily or permanently. Structured investments, particularly
the subordinated interests in which we invest, are less liquid than many other types of securities and may be more volatile than the assets
underlying the CLOs we may target. In addition, CLO and other structured finance securities may be subject to prepayment risk. Further,
the performance of a CLO or other structured finance security may be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including the security&#8217;s
priority in the capital structure of the issuer thereof, the availability of any credit enhancement, the level and timing of payments
and recoveries on and the characteristics of the underlying receivables, loans or other assets that are being securitized, remoteness
of those assets from the originator or transferor, the adequacy of and ability to realize upon any related collateral and the capability
of the servicer of the securitized assets. Additionally, adverse credit events impacting a CLO&#8217;s or structured finance security&#8217;s
underlying collateral would be expected to reduce cash flows payable to us as a CLO equity investor. In addition, there is a risk that
majority lenders to an underlying loan held by a CLO could amend or otherwise modify the loan to the detriment of the CLO (including,
for example, by transferring collateral or otherwise reducing the priority of the CLO&#8217;s investment within the borrower&#8217;s capital
structure). Such actions would impair the value of the CLO&#8217;s investment and, ultimately, us.&#160; There are also the risks that
the trustee of a CLO does not properly carry out its duties to the CLO, potentially resulting in loss to the CLO. In addition, the complex
structure of the security may produce unexpected investment results, especially during times of market stress or volatility. Investments
in structured finance securities may also be subject to liquidity risk.</p><div>

factors, including price volatility and availability of investments suitable for the CLO, which could hamper the ability of the collateral
manager to acquire a portfolio of collateral obligations that will satisfy specified concentration limitations and allow the CLO to reach
the target initial par amount of collateral prior to the effective date. An inability or delay in reaching the target initial par amount
of collateral may adversely affect the timing and amount of interest or principal payments received by the holders of the CLO debt securities
and distributions on the CLO equity securities and could result in early redemptions which may cause CLO debt and equity investors to
receive less than face value of their investment.</p><div>

as a RIC under the Code and requirements of the 1940 Act, we do not have fixed guidelines for diversification, we do not have any limitations
on the ability to invest in any one CLO. As our portfolio may be less diversified than the portfolios of some larger funds, we are more
susceptible to risk of loss if one or more of the CLOs in which we are invested experiences a high level of defaults on its collateral.
Similarly, the aggregate returns we realize may be significantly adversely affected if a small number of investments perform poorly or
if we need to write down the value of any one investment. We may also invest in multiple CLOs managed by the same CLO collateral manager,
thereby increasing our risk of loss in the event the CLO collateral manager were to fail, experience the loss of key portfolio management
employees or sell its business.</p><div>

subject to concentration risk since CLO portfolios tend to have a certain amount of overlap across underlying obligors. This trend is
generally exacerbated when demand for bank loans by CLO issuers outpaces supply. Market analysts have noted that the overlap of obligor
names among CLO issuers has increased recently and is particularly evident across CLOs of the same year of origination, as well as with
CLOs managed by the same asset manager. To the extent we invest in CLOs which have a high percentage of overlap, this may increase the
likelihood of defaults on our CLO investments occurring together.</p><div>

value of certain of our investments may be significantly affected by changes in interest rates. In general, rising interest rates will
negatively affect the price of a fixed rate instrument and falling interest rates will have a positive effect on the price of a fixed

and result in credit losses that may adversely affect the cash flows from investments held in the Company and/or such investments&#8217;

senior secured loans are generally floating rate instruments, our investments in senior secured loans through investments in equity and
junior debt tranches of CLOs are sensitive to interest rate levels and volatility. For example, because CLO debt securities are floating
rate securities, a reduction in interest rates would generally result in a reduction in the coupon payment and cash flow we receive on
our CLO debt investments. Further, there may be some difference between the timing of interest rate resets on the assets and liabilities
of a CLO. Such a mismatch in timing could have a negative effect on the amount of funds distributed to CLO equity investors. In addition,
CLOs may not be able to enter into hedge agreements, even if it may otherwise be in the best interests of the CLO to hedge such interest
rate risk. Furthermore, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, loan defaults may increase
and result in credit losses that may adversely affect our cash flow, fair value of our assets and operating results. In the event that
our interest expense were to increase relative to income, or sufficient financing became unavailable, our return on investments and cash
available for distribution to stockholders or to make other payments on our securities would be reduced. In addition, future investments
in different types of instruments may carry a greater exposure to interest rate risk.</p><div>

Because CLOs generally issue debt on a floating rate basis, an increase in the relevant Benchmark will increase the financing costs of
CLOs. Many of the senior secured loans held by these CLOs have Benchmark floors such that, when the relevant Benchmark is below the stated
Benchmark floor, the stated Benchmark floor (rather than the Benchmark itself) is used to determine the interest payable under the loans.
Therefore, if the relevant Benchmark increases but stays below the average Benchmark floor rate of the senior secured loans held by a
CLO, there would not be a corresponding increase in the investment income of such CLOs. The combination of increased financing costs without
a corresponding increase in investment income in such a scenario could result in the CLO not having adequate cash to make interest or
other payments on the securities which we hold.</p><div>

If the applicable rate of interest on any CLO security is calculated with reference to a tenor which is discontinued, such rate of interest
will then be determined by the provisions of the affected CLO security, which may include determination by the relevant calculation agent
in its discretion. The administrator of a reference rate will not have any involvement in the affected CLOs or loans and may take any
actions in respect of such rate without regard to the effect of such actions on the CLOs or loans.</p><div>

of the transition from an interbank offered rate (&#8220;IBOR&#8221;) to a new reference rate in debt instruments and non-debt contracts.
Under the regulations, alteration or modification of the terms of a debt instrument to replace an operative rate that uses a discontinued

to holders of the CLO&#8217;s debt tranches based today on 3-month term plus a spread. The 3-month term rate may fluctuate in excess of
other potential term rates, which may result in many underlying corporate borrowers electing to pay interest based on a shorter, but in
any event lower, base rate. This mismatch in the rate at which CLOs earn interest and the rate at which they pay interest on their debt
tranches negatively impacts the cash flows on a CLO&#8217;s equity tranche, which may in turn adversely affect our cash flows and results
of operations. Unless spreads are adjusted to account for such increases, these negative impacts may worsen as the amount by which the
3-month term rate exceeds such other chosen term base rate.</p><div>

Rate Environment</i>. The senior secured loans underlying the CLOs in which we invest typically have floating interest rates. A rising
interest rate environment may increase loan defaults, resulting in losses for the CLOs in which we invest. In addition, increasing interest
rates may lead to higher prepayment rates, as corporate borrowers look to avoid escalating interest payments or refinance floating rate
loans. See &#8220;&#8212; <b><i>Risks Related to Our Investments &#8212; Our investments are subject to prepayment risk.</i></b>&#8221;
Further, a general rise in interest rates will increase the financing costs of the CLOs. However, since many of the senior secured loans
within these CLOs have Benchmark floors, if the Benchmark is below the applicable Benchmark floor, there may not be corresponding increases
in investment income which could result in the CLO not having adequate cash to make interest or other payments on the securities which
we hold.</p><div>

in which we invest, an underlying asset of any such CLO or any other type of credit investment in our portfolio declines in price or fails
to pay interest or principal when due because the issuer or debtor, as the case may be, experiences a decline in its financial status
either or both our income and NAV may be adversely impacted. Non-payment would result in a reduction of our income, a reduction in the
value of the applicable CLO security or other credit investment experiencing non-payment and, potentially, a decrease in our NAV. With
respect to our investments in CLO securities and credit investments that are secured, there can be no assurance that liquidation of collateral
would satisfy the issuer&#8217;s obligation in the event of non-payment of scheduled dividend, interest or principal or that such collateral
could be readily liquidated. In the event of bankruptcy of an issuer, we could experience delays or limitations with respect to its ability
to realize the benefits of any collateral securing a CLO security or credit investment. To the extent that the credit rating assigned
to a security in our portfolio is downgraded, the market price and liquidity of such security may be adversely affected. In addition,
if a CLO in which we invest triggers an event of default as a result of failing to make payments when due or for other reasons, the CLO
would be subject to the possibility of liquidation, which could result in full loss of value to the CLO equity and junior debt investors.
CLO equity tranches are the most likely tranche to suffer a loss of all of their value in these circumstances. Heightened inflationary
pressures could increase the risk of default by the Company&#8217;s underlying obligors.</p><div>

the Adviser&#8217;s valuations and projections take into account certain expected levels of prepayments, the collateral of a CLO may be
prepaid more quickly than expected. Prepayment rates are influenced by changes in interest rates and a variety of factors beyond our control
and consequently cannot be accurately predicted. Early prepayments give rise to increased reinvestment risk, as a CLO collateral manager
might realize excess cash from prepayments earlier than expected. If a CLO collateral manager is unable to reinvest such cash in a new
investment with an expected rate of return at least equal to that of the investment repaid, this may reduce our net income and the fair
value of that asset.</p><div>

includes equity and junior debt investments in CLOs, which involve a number of significant risks. CLOs are typically very highly levered
(with CLO equity securities being leveraged ten times), and therefore the equity and junior debt tranches in which we are currently invested
and in which we invest will be subject to a higher degree of risk of total loss. In particular, investors in CLO securities indirectly
bear risks of the collateral held by such CLOs. We generally have the right to receive payments only from the CLOs, and generally not
have direct rights against the underlying borrowers or the entity that sponsored the CLO. While the CLOs we target generally enable an
equity investor therein to acquire interests in a pool of senior secured loans without the expenses associated with directly holding the
same investments, we generally pay a proportionate share of the CLOs&#8217; administrative, management and other expenses if we make a
CLO equity investment. In addition, we may have the option in certain CLOs to contribute additional amounts to the CLO issuer for purposes
of acquiring additional assets or curing coverage tests, thereby increasing our overall exposure and capital at risk to such CLO. Although
it is difficult to predict whether the prices of assets underlying CLOs will rise or fall, these prices (and, therefore, the prices of
the CLOs&#8217; securities) are influenced by the same types of political and economic events that affect issuers of securities and capital
markets generally. The interests we acquire in CLOs generally are thinly traded or have only a limited trading market. CLO securities
are typically privately offered and sold, even in the secondary market. As a result, investments in CLO securities are illiquid.</p><div>

loans or bonds and structured finance securities with underlying exposure to CBO and CDO tranches, residential mortgage-backed securities,
commercial mortgage-backed securities, trust preferred securities and other types of securitizations. CLOs generally invest in lower-rated
debt securities that are typically rated below Baa/BBB by Moody&#8217;s, S&amp;P or Fitch. In addition, we may obtain direct exposure
to such financial assets/instruments. Securities that are not rated or are rated lower than Baa by Moody&#8217;s or lower than BBB by

credit and liquidity risk than investment grade obligations. High-yield debt securities are generally unsecured and may be subordinated
to certain other obligations of the issuer thereof. The lower rating of high-yield debt securities and below investment grade loans reflects
a greater possibility that adverse changes in the financial condition of an issuer or in general economic conditions or both may impair
the ability of the issuer thereof to make payments of principal or interest.</p><div>

of debt obligations also may be adversely affected by specific issuer developments, or the issuer&#8217;s inability to meet specific projected
business forecasts or the unavailability of additional financing. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer is significantly greater
for the holders of high-yield debt securities because such securities may be unsecured and may be subordinated to obligations owed to
other creditors of the issuer of such securities. In addition, the CLO issuer may incur additional expenses to the extent it (or any investment
manager) is required to seek recovery upon a default on a high yield bond (or any other debt obligation) or participate in the restructuring

of the loans held by CLOs in which we invest may consist of second lien loans. Second lien loans are secured by liens on the collateral

by, the rights of the senior creditors holding such other classes of obligations. In many circumstances, the CLO issuer may be prevented

that might be realized as a result of collection efforts or in connection with a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving a second
lien loan must generally be turned over to the first lien secured lender until the first lien secured lender has realized the full value
of its own claims. In addition, certain of the second lien loans contain provisions requiring the CLO issuer&#8217;s interest in the collateral
to be released in certain circumstances. These lien and payment obligation subordination provisions may materially and adversely affect
the ability of the CLO issuer to realize value from second lien loans and adversely affect the fair value of and income from our investment

of certain high-yield investments because there may be a thin trading market for such securities. To the extent that a secondary trading
market for non-investment grade high-yield investments does exist, it would not be as liquid as the secondary market for highly rated

supply and demand in loan trading will provide an adequate degree of liquidity or that the current level of liquidity will continue. Because
holders of such loans are offered confidential information relating to the borrower, the unique and customized nature of the loan agreement,

Although a secondary market may exist, risks similar to those described above in connection with an investment in high-yield debt investments

purchase in privately negotiated transactions may also be illiquid or subject to legal restrictions on their transfer. As a result of
this illiquidity, our ability to sell certain investments quickly, or at all, in response to changes in economic and other conditions
and to receive a fair price when selling such investments may be limited, which could prevent us from making sales to mitigate losses
on such investments. In addition, CLOs are subject to the possibility of liquidation upon an event of default, which could result in full

as a holder of such credit-linked notes, we would be subject to counterparty risk of the bank which issues the credit-linked notes (in

range of factors could adversely affect the ability of the borrower of an underlying asset to make interest or other payments on that
asset. To the extent that actual defaults and losses on the collateral of an investment exceed the level of defaults and losses factored
into its purchase price, the value of the anticipated return from the investment will be reduced. The more deeply subordinated the tranche
of securities in which we invest, the greater the risk of loss upon a default. For example, CLO equity is the most subordinated tranche
within a CLO and is therefore subject to the greatest risk of loss resulting from defaults on the CLO&#8217;s collateral, whether due
to bankruptcy or otherwise. Any defaults and losses in excess of expected default rates and loss model inputs will have a negative impact
on the fair value of our investments, will reduce the cash flows that we receive from our investments, adversely affect the fair value
of our assets and could adversely impact our ability to pay dividends. Furthermore, the holders of the equity and junior debt tranches
typically have limited rights with respect to decisions made with respect to collateral following an event of default on a CLO. In some
cases, the senior most class of notes can elect to liquidate the collateral even if the expected proceeds are not expected to be able
to pay in full all classes of notes. We could experience a complete loss of our investment in such a scenario.</p><div>

Certain participants in the derivatives market, including larger financial institutions, have experienced significant financial hardship

lack adequate capital or access to capital, it may experience margin calls or other regulatory requirements to increase equity. Under
such circumstances, the risk that a counterparty will be unable to honor its obligations may increase substantially. If a counterparty
becomes bankrupt, we may experience significant delays in obtaining recovery (if at all) under the derivative contract in bankruptcy or
other reorganization proceeding; if our claim is unsecured, we will be treated as a general creditor of such prime broker or counterparty
and will not have any claim with respect to the underlying security. We may obtain only a limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in
such circumstances. The counterparty risk for cleared derivatives is generally lower than for uncleared OTC derivatives since generally
a clearing organization becomes substituted for each counterparty to a cleared derivative and, in effect, guarantees the parties&#8217;
performance under the contract as each party to a trade looks only to the clearing house for performance of financial obligations. However,
there can be no assurance that the clearing house, or its members, will satisfy its obligations to us.</p><div>

risk</i>. Derivative Transactions, especially when traded in large amounts, may not be liquid in all circumstances, so that in volatile
markets we would not be able to close out a position without incurring a loss. Although both OTC and exchange-traded derivatives markets
may experience a lack of liquidity, OTC non-standardized derivative transactions are generally less liquid than exchange-traded instruments.
The illiquidity of the derivatives markets may be due to various factors, including congestion, disorderly markets, limitations on deliverable
supplies, the participation of speculators, government regulation and intervention, and technical and operational or system failures.
In addition, daily limits on price fluctuations and speculative position limits on exchanges on which we may conduct transactions in derivative
instruments may prevent prompt liquidation of positions, subjecting us to the potential of greater losses. As a result, we may need to
liquidate other investments to meet margin and settlement payment obligations.</p><div>

risk</i>. The prices of many derivative instruments, including many options and swaps, are highly volatile. Price movements of options
contracts and payments pursuant to swap agreements are influenced by, among other things, interest rates, changing supply and demand relationships,
trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies of governments, and national and international political and economic
events and policies. The value of options and swap agreements also depends upon the price of the securities or currencies underlying them.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>OTC trading</i>. Derivative
Transactions that may be purchased or sold may include instruments not traded on an organized market. The risk of non-performance by the
counterparty to such Derivative Transaction may be greater and the ease with which we can dispose of or enter into closing transactions
with respect to such an instrument may be less than in the case of an exchange traded instrument. In addition, significant disparities
may exist between &#8220;bid&#8221; and &#8220;ask&#8221; prices for certain derivative instruments that are not traded on an exchange.
Such instruments are often valued subjectively and may result in mispricing or improper valuations. Improper valuations can result in
increased cash payment requirements to counterparties or a loss of value, or both. In contrast, cleared derivative transactions benefit
from daily mark-to-market pricing and settlement, and segregation and minimum capital requirements applicable to intermediaries. Derivatives
are also subject to operational and legal risks. Operational risk generally refers to risk related to potential operational issues, including
documentation issues, settlement issues, system failures, inadequate controls, and human errors. Legal risk generally refers to insufficient
documentation, insufficient capacity or authority of counterparty, or legality or enforceability of a contract. Transactions entered into
directly between two counterparties generally do not benefit from such protections; however, certain uncleared derivative transactions
are subject to minimum margin requirements which may require us and our counterparties to exchange collateral based on daily marked-to-market
pricing. OTC trading generally exposes us to the risk that a counterparty will not settle a transaction in accordance with its terms and
conditions because of a dispute over the terms of the contract (whether or not bona fide) or because of a credit or liquidity problem,
thus causing us to suffer a loss. Such &#8220;counterparty risk&#8221; is accentuated for contracts with longer maturities where events
may intervene to prevent settlement, or where we have concentrated our transactions with a single or small group of counterparties.</p><div>

the fees and expenses (including management fees and other operating expenses) of the CLO equity securities in which we invest. CLO collateral
manager fees are charged on the total assets of a CLO but are assumed to be paid from the residual cash flows after interest payments
to the CLO senior debt tranches. Therefore, these CLO collateral manager fees (which generally range from 0.35% to 0.50% of a CLO&#8217;s
total assets) are effectively much higher when allocated only to the CLO equity tranche. The calculation does not include any other operating
expense ratios of the CLOs, as these amounts are not routinely reported to shareholders on a basis consistent with this methodology; however,
it is estimated that additional operating expenses of 0.30% to 0.70% could be incurred. In addition, CLO collateral managers may earn
fees based on a percentage of the CLO&#8217;s equity cash flows after the CLO equity has earned a cash-on-cash return of its capital and
achieved a specified &#8220;hurdle&#8221; rate.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">As part of the ordinary management
of its portfolio, a CLO will typically generate cash from asset repayments and sales and reinvest those proceeds in substitute assets,
subject to compliance with its investment tests and certain other conditions. The earnings with respect to such substitute assets will
depend on the quality of reinvestment opportunities available at the time. If the CLO collateral manager causes the CLO to purchase substitute
assets at a lower yield than those initially acquired (for example, during periods of loan compression or need to satisfy the CLO&#8217;s
covenants) or sale proceeds are maintained temporarily in cash, it would reduce the excess interest-related cash flow that the CLO collateral
manager is able to achieve. The investment tests may incentivize a CLO collateral manager to cause the CLO to buy riskier assets than
it otherwise would, which could result in additional losses. These factors could reduce our return on investment and may have a negative
effect on the fair value of our assets and the market value of our securities. In addition, the reinvestment period for a CLO may terminate
early, which would cause the holders of the CLO&#8217;s securities to receive principal payments earlier than anticipated. In addition,
in most CLO transactions, CLO debt investors are subject to the risk that the holders of a majority of the equity tranche, who can direct
a call or refinancing of a CLO, causing such CLO&#8217;s outstanding CLO debt securities to be repaid at par earlier than expected. There
can be no assurance that we will be able to reinvest such amounts in an alternative investment that provides a comparable return relative

and commentary regarding potential significant changes to U.S. trade policies, treaties and tariffs. There continues to exist significant
uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and other countries with respect to such trade policies, treaties
and tariffs. These developments, or the perception that any of them could occur, could have a material adverse effect on global economic
conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and could trigger a significant reduction in international trade, supply chain
disruptions, an oversupply of certain manufactured goods, substantial price reductions of goods and possible failure of individual companies

either in losses to the funds due to subsequent declines in the value of such investment or, if we have entered into a contract to sell
the security, could result in possible liability to the purchaser. Transaction costs of buying and selling foreign securities also are
generally higher than those involved in domestic transactions. Furthermore, foreign financial markets have, for the most part, substantially
less volume than U.S. markets, and securities of many foreign companies are less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities

of return on our portfolio, the leverage would result in a lower rate of return to the common stockholders than if we had not issued Preferred

if the market value of our portfolio were to decline, the leverage would result in a greater decrease in NAV to the common stockholders
than if we were not leveraged through the issuance of Preferred Stock and debt securities. This greater NAV decrease would also tend to
cause a greater decline in the market price for our common stock. We might be in danger of failing to maintain the required asset coverage

cash flow and are otherwise unable to obtain funds necessary to meet required payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on
our indebtedness, or if we otherwise fail to comply with the various covenants, including financial and operating covenants, in the instruments
governing any future indebtedness, we could be in default under the terms of the agreements governing such indebtedness. In the event
of such default, the holders of such indebtedness could elect to declare all the funds borrowed thereunder to be due and payable, together
with accrued and unpaid interest, the lenders of the debt we may incur in the future could elect to terminate their commitments, cease
making further loans and institute foreclosure proceedings against our assets, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.
If our operating performance declines, we may in the future need to seek to obtain waivers from the required lenders or holders of any
debt that we may incur in the future to avoid being in default. If we breach our covenants under our debt and seek a waiver, we may not
be able to obtain a waiver from the required lenders or holders of the debt. If this occurs, we would be in default and our lenders or
debt holders could exercise their rights as described above, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation. If we are unable to
repay debt, lenders having secured obligations could proceed against the collateral securing the debt. Because any future debt will likely
have customary cross-default provisions, if the indebtedness thereunder or under any future credit facility is accelerated, we may be
unable to repay or finance the amounts due. See &#8220;<b><i>Description of Our Debt Securities</i></b>.&#8221;</p><div>

value and, consequently, the amount of unrealized gains and losses in our portfolio, are to a certain degree subjective and dependent
on a valuation process approved and overseen by our board of directors. Certain factors that may be considered in determining the fair
value of our investments include non-binding indicative bids and the number of trades (and the size and timing of each trade) in an investment.
Valuation of certain investments is also based, in part, upon third party valuation models which take into account various market inputs.
Investors should be aware that the models, information and/or underlying assumptions utilized by the Adviser or such models will not always
correctly capture the fair value of an asset. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of securities that are not publicly
traded like those we hold, are inherently uncertain, they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates. The
Adviser&#8217;s determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active public market
for these securities existed. The Adviser&#8217;s determinations of the fair value of our investments have a material impact on our net
earnings through the recording of unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and may cause our NAV on a given date to understate
or overstate, possibly materially, the value that we may ultimately realize on one or more of our investments. See <b><i>&#8220;Conflicts

commitment agreement will not be subject to the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act, if we reasonably believe, at the time
we enter into such agreement, that we will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet our obligations with respect to all such

Section&#160;619 of the Dodd-Frank Act, commonly referred to as the &#8220;Volcker Rule,&#8221; generally prohibits, subject to certain
exemptions, covered banking entities from engaging in proprietary trading or sponsoring, or acquiring or retaining an ownership interest
in, a hedge fund or private equity fund, or &#8220;covered funds,&#8221; (which have been broadly defined in a way which could include
many CLOs). Given the limitations on banking entities investing in CLOs that are covered funds, the Volcker Rule&#160;may adversely affect
the market value or liquidity of any or all of the investments held by us. Although the Volcker Rule&#160;and the implementing rules&#160;exempt
&#8220;loan securitizations&#8221; from the definition of covered fund, not all CLOs will qualify for this exemption.</p><div>

federal agencies responsible for implementing the Volcker Rule&#160;adopted amendments to the Volcker Rule&#8217;s implementing regulations,
including changes relevant to the treatment of securitizations (the &#8220;Volcker Changes&#8221;). Among other things, the Volcker Changes
ease certain aspects of the &#8220;loan securitization&#8221; exclusion, and create additional exclusions from the &#8220;covered fund&#8221;
definition, and narrow the definition of &#8220;ownership interest&#8221; to exclude certain &#8220;senior debt interests.&#8221; Also,
under the Volcker Changes, a debt interest would no longer be considered an &#8220;ownership interest&#8221; solely because the holder
has the right to remove or replace the manager following a cause-related default. The Volcker Changes were effective October&#160;1, 2020It
is currently unclear how, or if, the Volcker Changes will affect the CLO securities in which the Company invests.</p><div>

In October&#160;2014, six federal agencies (the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or the &#8220;FDIC,&#8221; the Comptroller of the
Currency, the Federal Reserve Board, the SEC, the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Federal Housing Finance Agency)
adopted joint final rules&#160;implementing certain credit risk retention requirements contemplated in Section&#160;941 of the Dodd-Frank
Act, or the &#8220;Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules.&#8221; These rules&#160;were published in the Federal Register on December&#160;24,
2014. With respect to the regulation of CLOs, the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules&#160;require that the &#8220;sponsor&#8221; or a &#8220;majority
owned affiliate&#8221; thereof (in each case as defined in the rules), will retain an &#8220;eligible vertical interest&#8221; or an &#8220;eligible
horizontal interest&#8221; (in each case as defined therein) or any combination thereof in the CLO in the manner required by the Final
U.S. Risk Retention Rules.</p><div>

Rules&#160;became fully effective on December&#160;24, 2016, or the &#8220;Final U.S. Risk Retention Effective Date,&#8221; and to the
extent applicable to CLOs, the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules&#160;contain provisions that may adversely affect the return of our investments.
On February&#160;9, 2018, a three judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, or the &#8220;DC
Circuit Court,&#8221; rendered a decision in <i>The Loan Syndications and Trading Association v. Securities and Exchange Commission and
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System</i>, No.&#160;1:16-cv-0065, in which the DC Circuit Court held that open market CLO collateral
managers are not &#8220;securitizers&#8221; subject to the requirements of the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules, or the &#8220;DC Circuit
Ruling.&#8221; Thus, collateral managers of open market CLOs are no longer required to comply with the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules&#160;at
this time. As such, it is possible that some collateral managers of open market CLOs will decide to dispose of the notes (or cause their
majority owned affiliates to dispose of the notes) constituting the &#8220;eligible vertical interest&#8221; or &#8220;eligible horizontal
interest&#8221; they were previously required to retain, or decide to take other action with respect to such notes that is not otherwise
prohibited by the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules. To the extent either the underlying collateral manager or its majority-owned affiliate
divests itself of such notes, this will reduce the degree to which the relevant collateral manager&#8217;s incentives are aligned with
those of the noteholders of the CLO (which may include us as a CLO noteholder), and could influence the way in which the relevant collateral
manager manages the CLO assets and/or makes other decisions under the transaction documents related to the CLO in a manner that is adverse
to us.</p><div>

applicable to open market CLOs. The ultimate impact of the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules&#160;on the loan securitization market and
the leveraged loan market generally remains uncertain, and any negative impact on secondary market liquidity for securities comprising
a CLO may be experienced due to the effects of the Final U.S. Risk Retention Rules&#160;on market expectations or uncertainty, the relative

or such investors determine that the underlying assets were not &#8220;inappropriately originated.&#8221; The Japanese investors to which
the JRR Rule&#160;applies include banks, bank holding companies, credit unions (<i>shinyo kinko</i>), credit cooperatives (<i>shinyo kumiai</i>),
labor credit unions (<i>rodo kinko</i>), agricultural credit cooperatives (<i>nogyo kyodo kumiai</i>), ultimate parent companies of large
securities companies and certain other financial institutions regulated in Japan (such investors, &#8220;Japanese Affected Investors&#8221;).
Such Japanese Affected Investors may be subject to punitive capital requirements and/or other regulatory penalties with respect to investments
in securitizations that fail to comply with the Japanese Retention Requirement.</p><div>

effective on March&#160;31, 2019. At this time, there are a number of unresolved questions and no established line of authority, precedent
or market practice that provides definitive guidance with respect to the JRR Rule, and no assurances can be made as to the content, impact
or interpretation of the JRR Rule. In particular, the basis for the determination of whether an asset is &#8220;inappropriately originated&#8221;
remains unclear and, therefore, unless the JFSA provides further specific clarification, it is possible that CLO securities we have purchased
may contain assets deemed to be &#8220;inappropriately originated&#8221; and, as a result, may not be exempt from the Japanese Retention
Requirement. The JRR Rule&#160;or other similar requirements may deter Japanese Affected Investors from purchasing CLO securities, which
may limit the liquidity of CLO securities and, in turn, adversely affect the price of such CLO securities in the secondary market. Whether
and to what extent the JFSA may provide further clarification or interpretation as to the JRR Rule&#160;is unknown.</p><div>

On February&#160;9, 2022, the SEC proposed certain rules&#160;and amendments under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, to
enhance the regulations applicable to private fund advisers (the &#8220;Proposed Private Fund Rules&#8221;) that, if adopted in their
current form, would affect investment advisers such as the CLO collateral managers, by, among other things, (i)&#160;requiring such managers
to comply with additional reporting and compliance obligations, (ii)&#160;prohibiting certain types of preferential treatment, including,
among other things, the provision of information regarding portfolio holdings of the private fund, and (iii)&#160;prohibiting or imposing
requirements on certain business practices, including prohibiting certain types of indemnification (which could include indemnification
provided for in the CLO&#8217;s management agreement) and requiring fairness opinions for adviser-led secondary transactions. Because
most CLOs in which we invest rely on Section&#160;3(c)(7)&#160;of the 1940 Act, each such CLO will be considered a &#8220;private fund&#8221;
within the meaning of the Proposed Private Fund Rules. The costs in complying with certain of the reporting and compliance obligations
under the Proposed Private Fund Rules&#160;could be substantial, and it is unclear if the costs of preparing such reports would be borne
by the CLO or the CLO&#8217;s collateral manager. If the CLOs in which we invest are responsible for such expenses, it could affect the
return on our investments in CLO securities. In addition, if any CLO collateral manager were prohibited from discussing the underlying
portfolio of CLO assets with investors, entirely or absent highly specific disclosure, it could result in a reduction or elimination of
any CLO collateral manager&#8217;s ability to provide information to us relating to such CLO&#8217;s assets other than the reporting required
by the CLO&#8217;s transaction documents. In addition, the Proposed Private Fund Rules&#160;could adversely affect a CLO&#8217;s ability
to consummate a refinancing or other optional redemption. As a result, adoption of the Proposed Private Fund Rules&#160;could have a material
and adverse effect on the market value and/or liquidity of the CLO securities in which we invest.</p><div>

time to time has undertaken a broad review of the potential risks associated with different asset management activities, focusing on,
among other things, liquidity risk and leverage risk. The staff of the Division of Investment Management of the SEC has, in correspondence
with registered management investment companies, previously raised questions about the level of, and special risks associated with, investments
in CLO securities. While it is not possible to predict what conclusions, if any, the staff may reach in these areas, or what recommendations,
if any, the staff might make to the SEC, the imposition of limitations on investments by registered management investment companies in
CLO securities could adversely impact our ability to implement our investment strategy and/or our ability to raise capital through public
offerings, or could cause us to take certain actions that may result in an adverse impact on our stockholders, our financial condition
and/or our results of operations. We are unable at this time to assess the likelihood or timing of any such regulatory development.</p><div>

in inflation rates, as has recently occurred in the U.S., have had in the past, and may in the future have, negative effects on economies

could significantly affect the operation of the issuers of securities or other investments in which the Company invests. Governmental
efforts to curb inflation often have negative effects on the level of economic activity. As such, inflation and rapid fluctuations in
inflation rates can adversely affect the financial performance of the Company and/or the collateral underlying the CLOs in which it invests.
There can be no assurance that inflation will not continue to be a serious problem and have an adverse impact on the performance of the
Company and its investments. Were significant inflation to continue, the effect on the Adviser&#8217;s strategy could be materially adverse.</p><div>

earning from investments in CLO securities and related investments. Investors should expect, therefore, that before we have fully invested

interest income at a modest rate, which may not exceed our expenses during this period. To the extent that the net proceeds from an offering

Structural Advantages of CLOs</b></p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">CLOs are generally required
to hold a portfolio of assets that is highly diversified by underlying borrower and industry and that is subject to a variety of asset
concentration limitations. Most CLOs are non-static, revolving structures that generally allow for reinvestment over a reinvestment period,
which is typically up to five years. The terms and covenants of a typical CLO structure are, with certain exceptions, based primarily
on the cash flow generated by, and the par value (as opposed to the market price or fair value) of, the collateral. These covenants include
collateral coverage tests, interest coverage tests and collateral quality tests.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">CLOs have two priority-of-payment
schedules (commonly called &#8220;waterfalls&#8221;), which are detailed in a CLO&#8217;s indenture and govern how cash generated from
a CLO&#8217;s underlying collateral is distributed to the CLO&#8217;s debt and equity investors. The interest waterfall applies to interest
payments received on a CLO&#8217;s underlying collateral. The principal waterfall applies to cash generated from principal on the underlying
collateral, primarily through loan repayments and the proceeds from loan sales. Through the interest waterfall, any excess interest-related
cash flow available after the required quarterly interest payments to CLO debt investors are made and certain CLO expenses (such as administration
and management fees) are paid is then distributed to the CLO&#8217;s equity investors each quarter, subject to compliance with certain
tests.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The Adviser believes that
excess interest-related cash flow is an important driver of CLO equity returns. In addition, relative to certain other high-yielding credit
investments such as mezzanine or subordinated debt, CLO equity is expected to have a shorter payback period with higher front-end loaded
quarterly cash flows during the early years of a CLO&#8217;s life if there is no disruption in the interest waterfall due to a failure
to remain in compliance with certain tests.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Most CLOs are non-static,
revolving structures that generally allow for reinvestment over a reinvestment period. Specifically, a CLO&#8217;s collateral manager
normally has broad latitude&#8201;-&#8201;within a specified set of asset eligibility and diversity criteria&#8201;-&#8201;to manage
and modify a CLO&#8217;s portfolio over time. We believe that skilled CLO collateral managers can add significant value to both CLO debt
and equity investors through a combination of their credit expertise and a strong understanding of how to manage effectively within the
rules-based structure of a CLO.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">After the CLO&#8217;s reinvestment
period has ended, in accordance with the CLO&#8217;s principal waterfall, cash generated from principal payments or other proceeds are
generally distributed to repay CLO debt investors in order of seniority. That is, the AAA tranche investors are repaid first, the AA tranche
investors second and so on, with any remaining principal being distributed to the equity tranche investors. In certain instances, principal
may be reinvested after the end of the reinvestment period.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">CLOs contain a variety of
structural features and covenants that are designed to enhance the credit protection of CLO debt investors, including overcollateralization
tests and interest coverage tests. The overcollateralization tests and interest coverage tests require CLOs to maintain certain levels
of overcollateralization (measured as par value of assets to liabilities subject to certain adjustments) and interest coverage, respectively.
If a CLO breaches an overcollateralization test or interest coverage test, excess interest-related cash flow that would otherwise be available
for distribution to the CLO equity tranche investors is diverted to prepay CLO debt investors in order of seniority until such time as
the covenant breach is cured. If the covenant breach is not or cannot be cured, the CLO equity investors (and potentially other debt tranche
investors) may experience a deferral of cash flow, a partial or total loss of their investment and/or the CLO may eventually experience
an event of default. For this reason, CLO equity investors are often referred to as being in a first loss position. The Adviser will have
no control over whether or not the CLO is able to satisfy its relevant interest coverage tests or overcollateralization tests.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">CLOs also typically have
interest diversion tests, which also act to ensure that CLOs maintain adequate overcollateralization. If a CLO breaches an interest diversion
test, excess interest-related cash flow that would otherwise be available for distribution to the CLO equity tranche investors is diverted
to acquire new loan collateral until the test is satisfied. Such diversion would lead to payments to the equity investors being delayed
and/or reduced.</p><div>

mark-to-market triggers and, with limited exceptions (such as the proportion of assets rated &#8220;CCC+&#8221; or lower (or their equivalent)
by which such assets exceed a specified concentration limit, discounted purchases and defaulted assets), CLO covenants are generally calculated
using the par value of collateral, not the market value or purchase price. As a result, a decrease in the market price of a CLO&#8217;s
performing collateral portfolio does not generally result in a requirement for the CLO collateral manager to sell assets (i.e., no forced
sales) or for CLO equity investors to contribute additional capital (i.e., no margin calls).</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Senior secured loans have
the most senior position in a borrower&#8217;s capital structure or share the senior position with other senior debt securities of the
borrower. This capital structure position generally gives holders of senior secured loans a priority claim on some or all of the borrower&#8217;s
assets in the event of default and therefore the lenders will be paid before certain other creditors of the borrower. Broadly syndicated
senior secured loans are typically originated and structured by banks on behalf of corporate borrowers with proceeds often used for leveraged
buyout transactions, mergers and acquisitions, stock repurchases, recapitalizations, refinancings, financing capital expenditures, and
internal growth. Broadly syndicated senior secured loans are typically acquired through both primary bank syndications and in the secondary
market, and distributed by the arranging bank to a diverse group of investors primarily consisting of CLOs, loan and high-yield bond registered
funds, loan separate accounts, banks, insurance companies, finance companies and hedge funds. Senior secured loans are floating rate instruments,
typically making quarterly interest payments based on a spread over LIBOR. We believe that senior secured loans represent an attractive
and stable base of collateral for CLOs. In most cases, a senior secured loan will be secured by specific collateral of the issuer. In
some cases, senior secured loans trade in the secondary market at a price below par (i.e., below 100% of face value). During a CLO&#8217;s
reinvestment period the CLO collateral manager has the ability to purchase such discounted loans, which presents an opportunity to generate
capital appreciation to the extent that the loan&#8217;s price increases or ultimately repays at par.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Senior secured loans generally
are negotiated between a borrower and several financial institution lenders represented by one or more lenders acting as agent of all
the lenders. The agent is responsible for negotiating the loan agreement that establishes the terms and conditions of the senior secured
loan and the rights of the borrower and the lenders. The agent is responsible for negotiating the loan agreement that establishes the
terms and conditions of the senior secured loan and the rights of the borrower and the lenders. Senior secured loans also have contractual
terms designed to protect lenders. Senior secured loans also have contractual terms designed to protect lenders. These covenants may include
mandatory prepayment out of excess cash flows, restrictions on dividend payments, the maintenance of minimum financial ratios, limits
on indebtedness and financial tests. Breach of these covenants generally is an event of default and, if not waived by the lenders, may
give lenders the right to accelerate principal and interest payments. Other senior secured loans may be issued with less restrictive covenants
which are often referred to as &#8220;covenant-lite&#8221; transactions. In a &#8220;covenant-lite&#8221; loan, the covenants that require
the borrower to &#8220;maintain&#8221; certain financial ratios are eliminated altogether, and the lenders are left to rely only on covenants
that restrict a company from &#8220;incurring&#8221; or actively engaging certain action. But a covenant that only restricts a company
from incurring new debt cannot be violated simply by a deteriorating financial condition, the company has to take affirmative action to
breach it. The impact of these covenant-lite transactions may be to retard the speed with which lenders will be able to take control over
troubled deals. We generally acquire senior secured loans of borrowers that, among other things, in the Adviser&#8217;s judgment, can
make timely payments on their senior secured loans and that satisfy other credit standards established by the Adviser.</p><div>

we succeed to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement of the assigning lender and becomes a lender under the loan agreement
with the same rights and obligations as the assigning lender. These rights include the ability to vote along with the other lenders on
such matters as enforcing the terms of the loan agreement (e.g., declaring defaults, initiating collection action,&#160;etc.). Taking
such actions typically requires a vote of the lenders holding at least a majority of the investment in the loan, and may require a vote
by lenders holding two-thirds or more of the investment in the loan. Because we typically do not hold a majority of the investment in
any loan, we will not be able by ourselves to control decisions that require a vote by the lenders.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">While we believe that senior
secured loans and CLO securities have certain attractive fundamental attributes, such securities are subject to a number of risks as discussed
in the &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; section of this prospectus. Among our primary targeted investments, the risks associated with CLO equity
are generally greater than those associated with CLO debt. In addition, many of the statistics and data noted in this prospectus relate
to historical periods when market conditions were, in some cases, materially different than they are as of the date of this prospectus.
As with other asset classes, market conditions and dynamics for senior secured loans and CLO securities evolve over time. For example,
over the past decade, the senior secured loan market has evolved from one in which covenant-lite loans represented a minority of the market
to one in which such loans represent a significant majority of the market.</p><div>

management of other vehicles and accounts by the Adviser&#8217;s affiliates and Senior Investment Team, give rise to certain conflicts

our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement to Eagle
Point Administration, and any interest expense and/or dividends paid on any issued and outstanding debt or Preferred Stock, but excluding
the incentive fee). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such
as original issue discount, debt instruments PIK interest and zero-coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in

Administration Agreement, pursuant to which the Administrator furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping
and record-keeping services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or arranges for the performance
of, our required administrative services, which include being responsible for the financial records which we are required to maintain
and preparing reports to our stockholders. In addition, the Administrator provides us with accounting services; assists us in determining
and publishing our NAV; oversees the preparation and filing of our tax returns; monitors our compliance with tax laws and regulations;
and prepares, and assists us with any audits by an independent public accounting firm of, our financial statements. The Administrator
is also responsible for the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders and the maintenance of our website; provides support
for our investor relations; generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services
rendered to us by others; and provides such other administrative services as we may from time to time designate. Payments under the Administration
Agreement are equal to an amount based upon our allocable portion of the Administrator&#8217;s overhead in performing its obligations
under the Administration Agreement, including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions and our allocable
portion of the compensation of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and our allocable portion of the compensation
of any administrative support staff. Our allocable portion of such total compensation is based on an allocation of the time spent on us
relative to other matters. To the extent the Administrator outsources any of its functions, we pay the fees on a direct basis, without
profit to the Administrator. Certain accounting and other administrative services have been delegated by the Administrator to SS&amp;C
Technologies,&#160;Inc., or &#8220;SS&amp;C,&#8221; for which the fee is calculated based on our net assets (subject to a monthly minimum),
and certain investor relations related services have been delegated to ICR, LLC, or &#8220;ICR,&#8221; whose charges are payable monthly.
The Administration Agreement may be terminated by us without penalty upon not less than 60 days&#8217; written notice to the Administrator
and by the Administrator upon not less than 90 days&#8217; written notice to us. The Administration Agreement will remain in effect if
approved by the board of directors, including by a majority of our independent directors, on an annual basis. For the year ended December&#160;31,
2024, we were charged a total of $1.4 million in administration fees consisting of $0.8 million and $0.6 million, relating to services

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">We determine the NAV per
share of our common stock by dividing the value of our portfolio investments, cash and other assets (including interest accrued but not
collected) less all of our liabilities (including accrued expenses, the aggregate liquidation preference of our Preferred Stock, borrowings
and interest payables) by the total number of outstanding shares of our common stock on a quarterly basis (or more frequently, as appropriate).
The most significant estimate inherent in the preparation of our financial statements is the valuation of investments and the related
amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded. There is no single method for determining fair value in good
faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio
investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. Rule&#160;2a-5 under the 1940
Act establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Pursuant to Rule&#160;2a-5, our board
has elected to designate the Adviser as &#8220;valuation designee&#8221; to perform fair value determinations in respect of our portfolio
investments that do not have readily available market quotations.</p><div>

820 <i>Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures </i>of the Financial Accounting Standards Board&#8217;s Accounting Standards Codification,
as amended, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value
measurements. Fair value is the estimated amount that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price).</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">In valuing our investments
in CLO debt, CLO equity and LAFs, the Adviser considers a variety of relevant factors, including price indications from a third-party
pricing service, recent trading prices for specific investments, recent purchases and sales known to the Adviser in similar securities
and output from a third-party financial model. The third-party financial model contains detailed information on the characteristics of
CLOs, including recent information about assets and liabilities, and is used to project future cash flows. Key inputs to the model, including
assumptions for future loan default rates, recovery rates, prepayment rates, reinvestment rates and discount rates are determined by considering
both observable and third-party market data and prevailing general market assumptions and conventions as well as those of the Adviser.</p><div>

utilizes a third-party pricing service in connection with the valuation of our investments in CLO debt. However, if pricing from such
third-party pricing service is determined to be stale or otherwise not reflective of current market conditions, the Adviser may use an
average of independent broker quotes to determine fair value. The Adviser engages a third-party independent valuation firm as an input
to the valuation of the fair value of our investments in CLO equity. The valuation firm&#8217;s advice is only one factor considered in
the valuation of such investments, and the Adviser does not rely on such advice in determining the fair value of our investments in accordance
with the 1940 Act.</p><div>

is valued at least each quarter in accordance with the Adviser&#8217;s valuation policies and procedures. Fair valuations are ultimately
determined by the Adviser&#8217;s valuation committee, which is comprised of a majority of non-investment personnel. Our board of directors
oversees the valuation designee and the process that it uses to determine the fair value of our assets. In this regard, the board receives
periodic and, as applicable, prompt reporting regarding certain material valuation matters, as required by Rule&#160;2a-5 under the 1940
Act.</p><div>

directors, and the Adviser and certain of its affiliates and their officers and employees, including the Senior Investment Team, have
several conflicts of interest as a result of the other activities in which they engage. The Adviser and the Administrator are affiliated
with other entities engaged in the financial services business. In particular, the Adviser and the Administrator are affiliated with Stone
Point, and certain members of the Adviser&#8217;s Board of Managers are principals of Stone Point. Pursuant to certain management agreements,
Stone Point has received delegated authority to act as the investment manager of the Trident Funds, which hold a significant number of
shares of our common stock. See &#8220;<b><i>Control Persons and Principal Stockholders</i></b>.&#8221; The Adviser and the Administrator
are primarily indirectly owned by certain of the Trident Funds through intermediary holding companies. The Trident Funds and other private
equity funds managed by Stone Point invest in financial services companies. Further, the Adviser and its affiliates engage and may in
the future engage in a variety of business activities, including investment management, financing, and software analytics. As such, the
Adviser and its affiliates may have multiple business relationships with CLO collateral managers that encompass a range of activities,
such as investing in CLOs managed by a CLO collateral manager on behalf of the Company, financing, or investing in other securities issued
by, other vehicles managed by such CLO collateral manager or an affiliate thereof, or otherwise providing advisory, research or data services
to such CLO collateral manager for compensation. These relationships may cause the Adviser&#8217;s, the Administrator&#8217;s and certain
of their affiliates&#8217; interests, and the interests of their officers and employees, including the Senior Investment Team, to diverge
from our interests and may result in conflicts of interest that may not be foreseen, which conflicts may not be resolved in a manner that
is always or exclusively in our best interest.</p><div>

to manage accounts for multiple clients, including accounts for affiliates of the Adviser or their directors, officers or employees, following
the same, similar or different investment objectives, philosophies and strategies as those used by the Adviser for our account. In those
situations, the Adviser and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest in allocating investment opportunities between us and any other
account managed by such person. See <b><i>&#8220;&#8212; Allocation of Opportunities&#8221; </i></b>below. Such conflicts of interest
would be expected to be heightened where the Adviser manages an account for an affiliate or its directors, officers or employees. In addition,
certain of these accounts may provide for higher management fees or have incentive fees or may allow for higher expense reimbursements,
all of which may contribute to a conflict of interest and create an incentive for the Adviser to favor such other accounts. Further, accounts
managed by the Adviser or certain of its affiliates hold, and may in the future be allocated, certain investments in CLOs, such as debt
tranches, which conflict with the positions held by other accounts in such CLOs, such as us. For example, another Eagle Point-managed
account could hold a senior debt position in an issuer's capital structure while we hold a subordinated position. In these cases, when
exercising the rights of each account with respect to such investments, the Adviser and/or its affiliates will have a conflict of interest
as actions on behalf of one account may have an adverse effect on another account managed by the Adviser or such affiliate, including
us. In such cases, such conflicts may not be resolved in a manner that is always or exclusively in our best interests.</p><div>

special purpose vehicles, indebtedness for borrowed money, as well as leverage in the form of Derivative Transactions, additional shares
of Preferred Stock, debt securities and other structures and instruments, in significant amounts and on terms that the Adviser and our
board of directors deem appropriate, subject to applicable limitations under the 1940 Act. Such leverage may be used for the acquisition
and financing of our investments, to pay fees and expenses and for other purposes. Such leverage may be secured and/or unsecured. Any
such leverage does not include leverage embedded or inherent in the CLO structures in which we invest or in derivative instruments in
which we may invest. The more leverage we employ, the more likely a substantial change will occur in our NAV. Accordingly, any event that
adversely affects the value of an investment would be magnified to the extent leverage is utilized. Our incentive fee structure and the
formula for calculating the fee payable to the Adviser may incentivize the Adviser to pursue speculative investments and use leverage
in a manner that adversely impacts our performance. The incentive fee payable to the Adviser is based on our Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment
Income, as calculated in accordance with our Investment Advisory Agreement. This may encourage the Adviser to use leverage to increase
the return on our investments, even when it may not be appropriate to do so, and to refrain from de-levering when it would otherwise be
appropriate to do so. In addition, because our management fee is based in part on the paid-in capital of any Preferred Stock that we issue,
we may have an incentive to incur leverage by issuing additional Preferred Stock when it is not appropriate to do so or when it is advantageous
to use other forms of leverage, such as issuing debt. Under certain circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of
default, which would impair the value of our securities.</p><div>

and the Administrator will be required to determine how certain costs and expenses are to be allocated among the Company and certain other
accounts. Often, an expense is relevant only to the Company and would be borne only by us. However, it is sometimes the case that costs
and expenses are relevant to more than one account. To the extent the Company, on the one hand, and Adviser, Administrator and/or one
or more accounts, on the other hand, incur costs or expenses that are applicable to more than one of them, the Adviser and the Administrator
will allocate such costs and expenses in a manner that they determine to be fair and reasonable, notwithstanding their potential interest
in the outcome, and may make corrective allocations should they determine that such corrections are necessary or advisable. Further, the
Adviser and the Administrator and their affiliates, and their respective personnel and the investment funds serviced by such persons,
have interests in companies that provide services to asset management firms such as the Adviser, and to other businesses. Because of these
relationships, such persons have a conflict of interest when considering service providers with respect to the Company and have an incentive
to select those service providers in which such persons have an interest. The selection of such a service provider may result in the Company
bearing fees and expenses paid to a service provider that is affiliated with, or otherwise has a relationship with, the Adviser, the Administrator
or their affiliates.</p><div>

and the Administrator have a conflict of interest where a service provider provides services directly to the Adviser and/or the Administrator

may potentially obtain services at a lower cost than it otherwise could have as a result of the service provider&#8217;s work performed
on behalf of, and the compensation paid to the service provider by, the Company. In addition, the Adviser and the Administrator and their
affiliates may use some of the same service providers as are retained on behalf of the Company and, in some cases, fee rates, amounts
or discounts may be offered to the Adviser, the Administrator and/or their affiliates by a third party service provider which differ from
those offered to the Company as a result of scheduled or ad hoc rate changes, differences in the scope, type or nature of the service
or transaction, alternative fee arrangements and negotiation.</p><div>

in a qualified publicly traded partnership, or other income (including, but not limited to, gains from options, futures or forward contracts)
derived with respect to our business of investing in stock, securities and currencies, or the &#8220;90% Gross Income Test.&#8221; A &#8220;qualified
publicly traded partnership&#8221; is a publicly traded partnership that meets certain requirements with respect to the nature of its
income. To qualify as a RIC, we must also satisfy certain requirements with respect to the diversification of our assets. We must have,
at the close of each quarter of the tax year, at least 50% of the value of our total assets represented by cash, cash items, U.S. government
securities, securities of other RICs and other securities that, in respect of any one issuer, do not represent more than 5% of the value
of our assets nor more than 10% of the voting securities of that issuer. In addition, at those times, not more than 25% of the value of
our assets may be invested in securities (other than U.S. government securities or the securities of other RICs) of any one issuer, or
of two or more issuers, which we control and which are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses or related trades or businesses,
or of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships, or the &#8220;Asset Diversification Tests.&#8221; If we fail to satisfy the
90% Gross Income Test, we will nevertheless be considered to have satisfied the test if (i)&#160;(a)&#160;such failure is due to reasonable
cause and not due to willful neglect and (b)&#160;we report the failure pursuant to Treasury Regulations to be adopted, and (ii)&#160;we
pay a tax equal to the amount by which our gross non-qualifying income exceeds one ninth of our gross qualifying income. If we fail to
meet any of the Asset Diversification Tests with respect to any quarter of any tax year, we will nevertheless be considered to have satisfied
the requirements for such quarter if we cure such failure within six months and either (i)&#160;such failure is de minimis or (ii)&#160;(a)&#160;such
failure is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect and (b)&#160;we report the failure under Treasury Regulations to be
adopted and pay an excise tax. If we fail to qualify as a RIC for more than two consecutive taxable years and then seek to re-qualify

taxable income in circumstances in which we do not receive cash. For example, if we hold debt instruments that are treated under applicable

circumstances), we must include in income each tax year a portion of the OID that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless

we have not yet received in cash, such as contractual PIK interest (which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance and
due at the end of the loan term) and deferred loan origination fees that are paid after origination of the loan or are paid in non-cash
compensation such as warrants or stock. Because any original issue discount or other amounts accrued will be included in our investment

we invest may constitute PFICs for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Because we acquire interests treated as equity for U.S. federal income

to federal income tax on a portion of any &#8220;excess distribution&#8221; or gain from the disposition of such shares even if such income
is distributed as a taxable dividend by us to our stockholders. Additional charges in the nature of interest may be imposed on us in respect
of deferred taxes arising from any such excess distributions or gains. If we invest in a PFIC and elect to treat the PFIC as a QEF in
lieu of the foregoing requirements, we will be required to include in income each tax year our proportionate share of the ordinary earnings
and net capital gain of the QEF, even if such income is not distributed to us. Alternatively, we can elect to mark-to-market at the end
of each tax year (as well as on certain other dates described in the Code) our shares in a PFIC; in this case, we will recognize as ordinary
income any increase in the value of such shares, and as an ordinary loss any decrease in such value to the extent it does not exceed prior
increases included in our ordinary income. Under either election, we may be required to recognize in a tax year taxable income in excess
of our distributions from PFICs and our proceeds from dispositions of PFIC stock during that tax year, and we may be required to distribute
such taxable income in order to satisfy the 90% Gross Income Test, the Excise Tax Distribution Requirement or the 90% Distribution Requirement.

Holders of Our Stock</i>. A U.S. Shareholder that is a tax-exempt organization for U.S. federal income tax purposes and therefore generally
exempt from U.S. federal income taxation may nevertheless be subject to taxation to the extent that it is considered to derive unrelated
business taxable income (&#8220;UBTI&#8221;). The direct conduct by a tax-exempt U.S. Shareholder of the activities that we propose to
conduct could give rise to UBTI. However, a RIC is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its business activities generally
will not be attributed to its shareholders for purposes of determining their treatment under current law. Therefore, a tax-exempt U.S.
Shareholder should not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation solely as a result of such shareholder&#8217;s direct or indirect ownership
of shares of our stock and receipt of distributions with respect to such shares (regardless of whether we incur indebtedness). Moreover,
under current law, if we incur indebtedness, such indebtedness will not be attributed to a tax-exempt U.S. Shareholder. Therefore, a tax-exempt
U.S. Shareholder should not be treated as earning income from &#8220;debt-financed property&#8221; and distributions that we pay should
not be treated as &#8220;unrelated debt-financed income&#8221; solely as a result of indebtedness that we incur. Certain tax-exempt private
universities are subject to an additional 1.4% excise tax on their &#8220;net investment income,&#8221; including income from interest,
dividends, and capital gains. Proposals periodically are made to change the treatment of &#8220;blocker&#8221; investment vehicles interposed
between tax-exempt investors and non-qualifying investments. In the event that any such proposals were to be adopted and applied to RICs,
the treatment of dividends payable to tax-exempt investors could be adversely affected. In addition, special rules&#160;would apply if
we were to invest in certain real estate mortgage investment conduits or taxable mortgage pools, which we do not currently plan to do,
that could result in a tax-exempt U.S. Shareholder recognizing income that would be treated as UBTI.</p><div>

acquirer to acquire us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. These provisions are expected to discourage certain coercive
takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our
board of directors. These measures may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change in control that might otherwise be in the best
interests of our stockholders. These provisions could have the effect of depriving stockholders of an opportunity to sell their shares
at a premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain control over us. Such attempts could have
the effect of increasing our expenses and disrupting our normal operations. We believe that the benefits of these provisions outweigh
the potential disadvantages of discouraging any such acquisition proposals because the negotiation of such proposals may improve their
terms. Our board of directors has considered these provisions and has determined that the provisions are in the best interests of us and
our stockholders generally.</p><div>

board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the board of directors, may be filled only by vote of a majority
of the directors then in office. The limitations on the ability of our stockholders to remove directors and fill vacancies could make
it more difficult for a third-party to acquire, or discourage a third-party from seeking to acquire, control of us.</p><div>

of the holders of any class or classes or series of shares as may be required by the 1940 Act. In considering whether to vote on any proposal
to convert us to an open-end management investment company, our board of directors may consider any potential benefits to stockholders
that may potentially be achieved based on the circumstances and related risks, and whether it would be in the long-term best interests
of stockholders to do so in light of any necessary changes in our investment policies and other factors. The composition of our portfolio
likely could prohibit us from complying with regulations of the SEC applicable to open-end management investment companies. Accordingly,
conversion likely would require significant changes in our investment policies and may require liquidation of a substantial portion of
relatively illiquid portions of its portfolio, to the extent such positions are held. In the event of conversion, the shares of our common
stock would cease to be listed on the NYSE or other national securities exchange or market system. Any outstanding shares of our Preferred
Stock would be redeemed by us prior to such conversion. Our board of directors believes, however, that the closed-end structure is desirable,
given our investment objectives and policies. Investors should assume, therefore, that it is unlikely that the board of directors would
vote to convert us to an open-end management investment company. Stockholders of an open-end management investment company may require
the open-end management investment company to redeem their shares at any time (except in certain circumstances as authorized by or under
the 1940 Act) at their NAV, less such redemption charge, if any, as might be in effect at the time of a redemption. We would expect to
pay all such redemption requests in cash, but intends to reserve the right to pay redemption requests in a combination of cash or securities.
If such partial payment in securities were made, investors may incur brokerage costs in converting such securities to cash. If we were
converted to an open-end fund, it is likely that new shares of our common stock would be sold at NAV plus a sales load.</p><div>

however, that any such an issuance must adhere to the requirements of the 1940 Act, Delaware law and any other limitations imposed by
law.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">With respect to senior securities
that are stocks (i.e., shares of our Preferred Stock), we are required under current law to have an asset coverage of at least 200%, as
measured at the time of the issuance of any such shares of Preferred Stock and calculated as the ratio of our total assets (less all liabilities
and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) over the aggregate amount of our outstanding senior securities representing indebtedness
plus the aggregate liquidation preference of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. In addition the 1940 Act requires that (i)&#160;the
holders of shares of Preferred Stock must be entitled as a class to elect two directors at all times and to elect a majority of the directors
if dividends or other distribution on the Preferred Stock are in arrears by two years or more and (ii)&#160;such class of stock have complete
priority over any other class of stock as to distribution of assets and payment of dividends or other distributions, which shall be cumulative.
Some matters under the 1940 Act require the separate vote of the holders of any issued and outstanding Preferred Stock. We believe that
the availability for issuance of Preferred Stock will provide us with increased flexibility in structuring future financings and acquisitions.</p><div>

we had $32,423,800 aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes outstanding, $93,250,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes
outstanding, $115,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes and $44,850,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes outstanding.
We may issue additional debt securities in one or more series. The specific terms of each series of debt securities will be described
in the particular prospectus supplement relating to that series. The prospectus supplement may or may not modify the general terms found
in this prospectus and will be filed with the SEC. For a complete description of the terms of a particular series of debt securities,
you should read both this prospectus and the prospectus supplement relating to that series.</p><div>

for all bonds and notes of companies that are publicly offered, the Notes and any future debt securities we may issue, are governed by
a document called an &#8220;indenture.&#8221; An indenture is a contract between us and a financial institution acting as trustee on your
behalf, and is subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The trustee has two main roles. First, the trustee
can enforce your rights against us if we default. There are some limitations on the extent to which the trustee acts on your behalf, described
in the second paragraph under <b><i>&#8220;&#8212; Events of Default &#8212; Remedies if an Event of Default Occurs.&#8221; </i></b>Second,
the trustee performs certain administrative duties for us with respect to our debt securities.</p><div>

not this description, defines your rights as a holder of debt securities. We have filed the indenture with the SEC. See <b><i>&#8220;Additional
Information&#8221; </i></b>for information on how to obtain a copy of the indenture.</p><div>

the powers and trust obligations of each trustee described in this prospectus will extend only to the one or more series of indenture
securities for which it is trustee. If two or more trustees are acting under the indenture, then the indenture securities for which each
trustee is acting would be treated as if issued under separate indentures.</p><div>

buying and selling the debt security must work out between themselves the appropriate purchase price. The most common manner is to adjust

and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution
of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act, and any discounts and commissions they receive from us and
any profit realized by them on the resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities

independent broker-dealer will not be greater than 8% of the gross proceeds of the sale of securities offered pursuant to this prospectus

in overallotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange
Act. Overallotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids
to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum price. Syndicate-covering or other
short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities, either through exercise of the overallotment option or in the open market
after the distribution is completed, to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from
a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a stabilizing or covering transaction to cover short positions.
Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue
any of the activities at any time.</p><div>

are described elsewhere in this prospectus. The following is a description of the various investment policies that may be engaged in,

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>Loan Accumulation Facilities.
</i>We may invest capital in LAFs, which are short- to medium-term facilities often provided by the bank that will serve as the placement
agent or arranger on a CLO transaction and which acquire loans on an interim basis that are expected to form part of the portfolio of
such future CLO. Investments in LAFs have risks that are similar to those applicable to investments in CLOs as described in this prospectus.
In addition, there typically will be no assurance that the future CLO will be consummated or that the loans held in such a facility are
eligible for purchase by the CLO. Furthermore, we likely will have no consent rights in respect of the loans to be acquired in such a
facility and in the event we do have any consent rights, they will be limited. In the event a planned CLO is not consummated, or the loans
are not eligible for purchase by the CLO, we may be responsible for either holding or disposing of the loans. This could expose us primarily
to credit and/or mark-to-market losses, and other risks. LAFs typically incur leverage from four to six times prior to a CLO&#8217;s closing
and as such the potential risk of loss will be increased for such facilities that employ leverage.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>Debt Securities. </i>We
may invest in debt securities, including debt securities rated below investment grade, or &#8220;junk&#8221; securities. Debt securities
of corporate and governmental issuers in which we may invest are subject to the risk of an issuer&#8217;s inability to meet principal
and interest payments on the obligations (credit risk) and also may be subject to price volatility due to such factors as interest rate
sensitivity, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity (market risk).</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>Senior Secured Loans.</i>
This category of investments primarily includes Assignments of performing senior secured loans to corporate borrowers. Senior secured
loans are typically acquired through both primary bank syndications and in the secondary market. In most cases, a senior secured loan
will be secured by specific collateral of the issuer. In some cases, senior secured loans trade in the secondary market at a price below
par (i.e., below 100% of face value). During a CLO&#8217;s reinvestment period the CLO collateral manager has the ability to purchase
such discounted loans, which presents an opportunity to generate capital appreciation to the extent that the loan&#8217;s price increases
or ultimately repays at par.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Senior secured loans are
loans that are typically made to business borrowers to finance leveraged buy-outs, recapitalizations, mergers, stock repurchases, or internal
growth. Senior secured loans generally are negotiated between a borrower and several financial institution lenders represented by one
or more lenders acting as agent of all the lenders. The agent is responsible for negotiating the loan agreement that establishes the terms
and conditions of the senior secured loan and the rights of the borrower and the lenders. We will primarily purchase Assignments of portions
of senior secured loans from third parties and may invest in participations in senior secured loans. Senior secured loans have the most
senior position in a borrower&#8217;s capital structure or share the senior position with other senior debt securities of the borrower.
This capital structure position generally gives holders of senior secured loans a priority claim on some or all of the borrower&#8217;s
assets in the event of default and therefore the lenders will be paid before certain other creditors of the borrower.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Senior secured loans also
have contractual terms designed to protect lenders. These covenants may include mandatory prepayment out of excess cash flows, restrictions
on dividend payments, the maintenance of minimum financial ratios, limits on indebtedness and other financial tests. Breach of these covenants
generally is an event of default and, if not waived by the lenders, may give lenders the right to accelerate principal and interest payments.
Other senior secured loans may be issued with less restrictive covenants which are often referred to as &#8220;covenant-lite&#8221; transactions.
In a &#8220;covenant-lite&#8221; loan, the covenants that require the borrower to &#8220;maintain&#8221; certain financial ratios are
eliminated altogether, and the lenders are left to rely only on covenants that restrict a company from &#8220;incurring&#8221; or actively
engaging certain action. But a covenant that only restricts a company from incurring new debt cannot be violated simply by a deteriorating
financial condition, the company has to take affirmative action to breach it. The impact of these covenant-lite transactions may be to
retard the speed with which lenders will be able to take control over troubled deals. We generally acquire senior secured loans of borrowers
that, among other things, in the Adviser&#8217;s judgment, can make timely payments on their senior secured loans and that satisfy other
credit standards established by the Adviser.</p><div>

second lien senior floating rate loans and other floating rate debt securities, coupon rates are floating, not fixed and are tied to a
benchmark lending rate, the most popular of which is LIBOR. The interest rates of these floating rate debt securities vary periodically
based upon a benchmark indicator of prevailing interest rates.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">When we purchase an Assignment,
we succeed to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement of the assigning lender and becomes a lender under the loan agreement
with the same rights and obligations as the assigning lender. These rights include the ability to vote along with the other lenders on
such matters as enforcing the terms of the loan agreement (e.g., declaring defaults, initiating collection action,&#160;etc.). Taking
such actions typically requires a vote of the lenders holding at least a majority of the investment in the loan, and may require a vote
by lenders holding two-thirds or more of the investment in the loan. Because we typically do not hold a majority of the investment in
any loan, we will not be able by ourselves to control decisions that require a vote by the lenders.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>High Yield Securities.</i>
We may invest in high yielding, fixed income securities rated below investment grade (e.g., rated below &#8220;Baa3&#8221; by Moody&#8217;s
or below &#8220;BBB-&#8221; by S&amp;P or Fitch). Below investment grade and unrated securities are also sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk&#8221;
securities.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Ratings are based largely
on the historical financial condition of the issuer. Consequently, the rating assigned to any particular security is not necessarily a
reflection of the issuer&#8217;s current financial condition, which may be better or worse than the rating would indicate. We may invest
in comparable quality unrated securities that, in the opinion of the Adviser, offer comparable yields and risks to those securities which
are rated.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Debt obligations rated in
the lower ratings categories, or which are unrated, involve greater volatility of price and risk of loss of principal and income. In addition,
lower ratings reflect a greater possibility of an adverse change in financial condition affecting the ability of the issuer to make payments
of interest and principal.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The market price and liquidity
of lower rated fixed income securities generally respond to short-term corporate and market developments to a greater extent than do the
price and liquidity of higher rated securities because such developments are perceived to have a more direct relationship to the ability
of an issuer of such lower rated securities to meet its ongoing debt obligations.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Reduced volume and liquidity
in the high yield bond market or the reduced availability of market quotations will make it more difficult to dispose of the bonds and
to value accurately our assets. The reduced availability of reliable, objective data may increase our reliance on management&#8217;s judgment
in valuing high yield bonds. In addition, our investments in high yield securities may be susceptible to adverse publicity and investor
perceptions, whether or not justified by fundamental factors. Our investments, and consequently our NAV, will be subject to the market
fluctuations and risks inherent in all securities.</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p><div>


</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>Defaulted Securities.</i>
We may invest in defaulted securities. The risk of loss due to default may be considerably greater with lower-quality securities because
they are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other debt of the issuer. Investing in defaulted debt securities involves risks
such as the possibility of complete loss of the investment where the issuer does not restructure to enable it to resume principal and
interest payments. If the issuer of a security in our portfolio defaults, we may have unrealized losses on the security, which may lower
our NAV. Defaulted securities tend to lose much of their value before they default. Thus, our NAV may be adversely affected before an
issuer defaults. In addition, we may incur additional expenses if it must try to recover principal or interest payments on a defaulted
security.</p><div>

Bankers&#8217; Acceptances and Time Deposits. </i>We may acquire certificates of deposit, bankers&#8217; acceptances and time deposits.
Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates issued against funds deposited in a commercial bank for a definite period of time
and earning a specified return. Bankers&#8217; acceptances are negotiable drafts or bills of exchange, normally drawn by an importer or
exporter to pay for specific merchandise, which are &#8220;accepted&#8221; by a bank, meaning in effect that the bank unconditionally
agrees to pay the face value of the instrument on maturity. Certificates of deposit and bankers&#8217; acceptances acquired by us will
be dollar-denominated obligations of domestic banks, savings and loan associations or financial institutions at the time of purchase,
have capital, surplus and undivided profits in excess of $100 million (including assets of both domestic and foreign branches), based
on latest published reports, or less than $100 million if the principal amount of such bank obligations are fully insured by the U.S.
government. In addition to purchasing certificates of deposit and bankers&#8217; acceptances, to the extent permitted under our investment
objectives and policies stated in this prospectus, we may make interest-bearing time or other interest-bearing deposits in commercial
or savings banks. Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits maintained at a banking institution for a specified period of time at a specified
interest rate.</p><div>

Notes. </i>We may invest a portion of our assets in commercial paper and short-term notes. Commercial paper consists of unsecured promissory
notes issued by corporations. Issues of commercial paper and short-term notes will normally have maturities of less than nine months and
fixed rates of return, although such instruments may have maturities of up to one year. Commercial paper and short-term notes will consist
of issues rated at the time of purchase &#8220;A-2&#8221; or higher by S&amp;P, &#8220;Prime-1&#8221; or &#8220;Prime-2&#8221; by Moody&#8217;s,

managers. There is not an active secondary market for CLO Class&#160;M notes, fee notes and participation agreements. Further, CLO Class&#160;M
notes, fee notes and participation agreements may have significant restrictions on transfer and require continued ownership of certain
amounts of CLO equity in the related CLO for the instrument to be valid. CLO Class&#160;M notes, fee notes and participation agreements
are also subject to the risk of early call of the CLO, and may have no make-whole or other yield protection provisions.</p><div>

</i>Among the debt securities in which we may invest are zero coupon securities. Zero coupon securities are debt obligations that do not
entitle the holder to any periodic payment of interest prior to maturity or a specified date when the securities begin paying current
interest. They are issued and traded at a discount from their face amount or par value, which discount varies depending on the time remaining
until cash payments begin, prevailing interest rates, liquidity of the security and the perceived credit quality of the issuer. The market
prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the prices of securities that pay interest periodically and in cash
and are likely to respond to changes in interest rates to a greater degree than do other types of debt securities having similar maturities
and credit quality. Original issue discount earned on zero coupon securities must be included in our income. Thus, to quality for tax
treatment as a RIC and to avoid a certain excise tax on undistributed income, we may be required to distribute as a dividend an amount
that is greater than the total amount of cash we actually receive. These distributions must be made from our cash assets or, if necessary,
from the proceeds of sales of portfolio securities. We will not be able to purchase additional income-producing securities with cash used
to make such distributions, and our current income ultimately could be reduced as a result.</p><div>

</div><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in"><i>U.S. Government Securities.
</i>We may invest in debt securities issued or guaranteed by agencies, instrumentalities and sponsored enterprises of the U.S. Government.
Some U.S. government securities, such as U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and mortgage-related securities guaranteed by the Government
National Mortgage Association, are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S.; others, such as those of the Federal Home Loan
Banks, or &#8220;FHLBs,&#8221; or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or &#8220;FHLMC,&#8221; are supported by the right of the
issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage Association, or &#8220;FNMA,&#8221; are
supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency&#8217;s obligations; and still others, such as
those of the Student Loan Marketing Association, are supported only by the credit of the issuing agency, instrumentality or enterprise.
Although U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises, such as the FHLBs, FHLMC, FNMA and the Student Loan Marketing Association, may be chartered
or sponsored by Congress, they are not funded by Congressional appropriations, and their securities are not issued by the U.S. Treasury
or supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government and involve increased credit risks. Although legislation has been enacted
to support certain government sponsored entities, including the FHLBs, FHLMC and FNMA, there is no assurance that the obligations of such
entities will be satisfied in full, or that such obligations will not decrease in value or default. It is difficult, if not impossible,
to predict the future political, regulatory or economic changes that could impact the government sponsored entities and the values of
their related securities or obligations. In addition, certain governmental entities, including FNMA and FHLMC, have been subject to regulatory
scrutiny regarding their accounting policies and practices and other concerns that may result in legislation, changes in regulatory oversight
and/or other consequences that could adversely affect the credit quality, availability or investment character of securities issued by
these entities. U.S. Government debt securities generally involve lower levels of credit risk than other types of debt securities of similar
maturities, although, as a result, the yields available from U.S. Government debt securities are generally lower than the yields available
from such other securities. Like other debt securities, the values of U.S. government securities change as interest rates fluctuate. Fluctuations
in the value of portfolio securities will not affect interest income on existing portfolio securities but will be reflected in our NAV.</p><div>

volatility. It may be more difficult to value such securities and the spread between the bid and asked prices of such securities may be
greater than normally expected. If the Adviser&#8217;s evaluation of the risks and anticipated outcome of an investment in a distressed

are a type of senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt security issued by financial institutions that combines both aspects of bonds and
ETFs. An ETN&#8217;s returns are based on the performance of a market index minus fees and expenses. Similar to ETFs, ETNs are listed
on an exchange and traded in the secondary market. However, unlike an ETF, an ETN can be held until the ETN&#8217;s maturity, at which
time the issuer will pay a return linked to the performance of the market index to which the ETN is linked minus certain fees. Unlike
regular bonds, ETNs do not make periodic interest payments and principal is not protected. ETNs are subject to credit risk and the value
of an ETN may drop due to a downgrade in the issuer&#8217;s credit rating, despite the underlying market benchmark or strategy remaining
unchanged. The value of an ETN may also be influenced by time to maturity, level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack
of liquidity in underlying assets, changes in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer&#8217;s credit rating, and economic,
legal, political, or geographic events that affect the referenced underlying asset. When we invest in ETNs we will bear our proportionate
share of any fees and expenses borne by the ETN. Our decision to sell our ETN holdings may be limited by the availability of a secondary
market. In addition, although an ETN may be listed on an exchange, the issuer may not be required to maintain the listing and there can
be no assurance that a secondary market will exist for an ETN.</p><div>

We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing primarily in equity and junior debt tranches of CLOs that are collateralized by a portfolio consisting primarily of below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans with a large number of distinct underlying borrowers across various industry sectors. We may also invest in other related securities and instruments or other securities and instruments that the Adviser believes are consistent with our investment objectives, including senior debt tranches of CLOs, LAFs, securities issued by other securitization vehicles, such as credit-linked notes and CBOs, and synthetic investments, such as significant risk transfer securities and credit risk transfer securities issued by banks or other financial institutions. We may also acquire securities issued by other investments companies, including closed-end funds, business development companies (&#8220;BDCs&#8221;), mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (&#8220;ETFs&#8221;), and may otherwise invest indirectly in securities consistent with our investment objectives. The amount that we will invest in other securities and instruments, which may include investments in debt and other securities issued by CLOs collateralized by non-U.S. loans or securities of other collective investment vehicles, will vary from time to time and, as such, may constitute a material part of our portfolio on any given date, all as based on the Adviser&#8217;s assessment of prevailing market conditions.</p>

Investors may not agree with our decisions, and our use of the proceeds may not yield any return on your investment. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. Our management may use the net proceeds for purposes that may not improve our financial condition or market value. Our failure to apply the net proceeds of this offering effectively could impair our ability to pursue our growth strategy or could require us to raise additional capital. Pending their use, we intend to invest the net proceeds from the offering in temporary investments, such as cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less.

A Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption will be provided not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption in such Notice of Redemption, or the &#8220;Series&#160;F Redemption Date.&#8221; If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to either the mandatory redemption provisions triggered by our failure to maintain the required asset coverage or the optional redemption provisions, the shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed will be selected either (1)&#160;pro rata among Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, (2)&#160;by lot, or (3)&#160;in such other manner as our board of directors may determine to be fair and equitable. If fewer than all shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption mailed to such holder will also specify the number of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder or the method of determining such number. We may provide in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption relating to a redemption contemplated to be effected pursuant to the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that we will not be required to effect such redemption unless each such condition has been satisfied. No defect in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption or delivery thereof will affect the validity of redemption proceedings except as required by applicable law.</p>

We will be entitled to receive, promptly after the Series&#160;F Redemption Date, any Deposit Securities in excess of the aggregate redemption price of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock called for redemption on the Series&#160;F Redemption Date. Any Deposit Securities so deposited that are unclaimed at the end of 90 calendar days from the Series&#160;F Redemption Date will, to the extent permitted by law, be repaid to us, after which the holders of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock so called for redemption can look only to us for payment of the Series&#160;F Redemption Price.

No default will be deemed to have occurred if we have failed to deposit in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent the applicable redemption price with respect to any shares where (1)&#160;the Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption relating to such redemption provided that such redemption was subject to one or more conditions precedent and (2)&#160;any such condition precedent has not been satisfied at the time or times and in the manner specified in such Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption. Notwithstanding the fact that a Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption has been provided with respect to any shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock in accordance with their terms if Deposit Securities for the payment of the redemption price of such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock have not been deposited in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent for that purpose.</p>

      &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in"&gt;Our primary investment objective is to generate high current income, with a secondary objective to generate capital appreciation. We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing primarily in equity and junior debt tranches of CLOs that are collateralized by a portfolio consisting primarily of below investment grade U.S. senior secured loans with a large number of distinct underlying borrowers across various industry sectors. We may also invest in other related securities and instruments or other securities and instruments that the Adviser believes are consistent with our investment objectives, including senior debt tranches of CLOs, LAFs, securities issued by other securitization vehicles, such as credit-linked notes and CBOs, and synthetic investments, such as significant risk transfer securities and credit risk transfer securities issued by banks or other financial institutions. We may also acquire securities issued by other investments companies, including closed-end funds, business development companies (&#x201c;BDCs&#x201d;), mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (&#x201c;ETFs&#x201d;), and may otherwise invest indirectly in securities consistent with our investment objectives. The amount that we will invest in other securities and instruments, which may include investments in debt and other securities issued by CLOs collateralized by non-U.S. loans or securities of other collective investment vehicles, will vary from time to time and, as such, may constitute a material part of our portfolio on any given date, all as based on the Adviser&#x2019;s assessment of prevailing market conditions.&lt;/p&gt;

Our management may use the net proceeds for purposes that may not improve our financial condition or market value. Our failure to apply the net proceeds of this offering effectively could impair our ability to pursue our growth strategy or could require us to raise additional capital. Pending their use, we intend to invest the net proceeds from the offering in temporary investments, such as cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders.&lt;/p&gt;

Dividends will be paid by the Redemption and Payment Agent to the holders of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on the applicable record date preceding the applicable Series&#160;C Dividend Payment Date. Dividends that are in arrears for any past Series&#160;C Dividend Period may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Series&#160;C Dividend Payment Date. Such payments are made to holders of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on such date, which date will not be more than 20 nor less than 7 calendar days before the payment date, as may be fixed by our board of directors. Any payment of dividends in arrears will first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on any Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock which may be in arrears. See &#x201c;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;i&gt;-Adjustment to Fixed Dividend Rate-Default Period&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&#x201d; below.&lt;/p&gt;

If full cumulative dividends and distributions due have not been declared and paid on all outstanding shares of preferred stock of any series, any dividends and distributions being declared and paid on Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock will be declared and paid as nearly pro rata as possible in proportion to the respective amounts of dividends and distributions accumulated but unpaid on the shares of each such series of preferred stock on the relevant Series&#160;C Dividend Payment Date. No holders of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock will be entitled to any dividends and distributions in excess of full cumulative dividends and distributions as provided in the certificate of designation.&lt;/p&gt;

The term senior security also does not include any such promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness in any case where such a loan is for temporary purposes only and in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of our total assets at the time when the loan is made; a loan is presumed under the 1940 Act to be for temporary purposes if it is repaid within 60 calendar days and is not extended or renewed; otherwise such loan is presumed not to be for temporary purposes.&lt;/p&gt;

The terms of office of the persons who are directors at the time of that election will not be affected by the election of the New Preferred Directors.

If we fail to call such a special meeting, it may be called at our expense by any such holder on like notice. The record date for determining the holders of shares of preferred stock entitled to notice of and to vote at such special meeting shall be the close of business on the business day preceding the calendar day on which such notice is mailed.

Any payment of dividends in arrears will first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends.

Dividends will be paid by the Redemption and Payment Agent to the holders of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on the applicable record date preceding the applicable Series&#160;F Dividend Payment Date. Dividends that are in arrears for any past Series&#160;F Dividend Period may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Series&#160;F Dividend Payment Date. Such payments are made to holders of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on such date, which date will not be more than 20 nor less than 7 calendar days before the payment date, as may be fixed by our board of directors. Any payment of dividends in arrears will first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on any Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock which may be in arrears.

If fewer than all shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption mailed to such holder will also specify the number of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder or the method of determining such number. We may provide in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption relating to a redemption contemplated to be effected pursuant to the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that we will not be required to effect such redemption unless each such condition has been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the fact that a Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption has been provided with respect to any shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock in accordance with their terms if Deposit Securities for the payment of the redemption price of such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock have not been deposited in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent for that purpose.&lt;/p&gt;

The terms of office of the persons who are directors at the time of that election will not be affected by the election of the New Preferred Directors.

Any preferred stock issued after the date hereof will vote with the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock as a single class on the matters described above, and the issuance of any other preferred stock by us may reduce the voting power of the holders of the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock.&lt;/p&gt;

If we fail to call such a special meeting, it may be called at our expense by any such holder on like notice. The record date for determining the holders of shares of preferred stock entitled to notice of and to vote at such special meeting shall be the close of business on the business day preceding the calendar day on which such notice is mailed. At any such special meeting and at each meeting of holders of shares of preferred stock held during a Voting Period at which directors are to be elected, such holders, voting together as a class (to the exclusion of the holders of all our other securities and classes of capital stock), will be entitled to elect the number of New Preferred Directors prescribed above on a one-vote-per-share basis.&lt;/p&gt;

Dividends that are in arrears for any past Series&#160;C Dividend Period may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Series&#160;C Dividend Payment Date. Such payments are made to holders of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on such date, which date will not be more than 20 nor less than 7 calendar days before the payment date, as may be fixed by our board of directors. Any payment of dividends in arrears will first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on any Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock which may be in arrears.

If full cumulative dividends and distributions due have not been declared and paid on all outstanding shares of preferred stock of any series, any dividends and distributions being declared and paid on Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock will be declared and paid as nearly pro rata as possible in proportion to the respective amounts of dividends and distributions accumulated but unpaid on the shares of each such series of preferred stock on the relevant Series&#160;C Dividend Payment Date.

For purposes of determining our asset coverage for senior securities representing indebtedness in connection with the payment of dividends or other distributions on or purchases or redemptions of stock, the term senior security does not include any promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness issued in consideration of any loan, extension or renewal thereof, made by a bank or other person and privately arranged, and not intended to be publicly distributed. The term senior security also does not include any such promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness in any case where such a loan is for temporary purposes only and in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of our total assets at the time when the loan is made; a loan is presumed under the 1940 Act to be for temporary purposes if it is repaid within 60 calendar days and is not extended or renewed; otherwise such loan is presumed not to be for temporary purposes.&lt;/p&gt;

A Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption will be provided not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption in such Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption, or the &#x201c;Series&#160;C Redemption Date.&#x201d; If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to either the mandatory redemption provisions triggered by our failure to maintain the required asset coverage or the optional redemption provisions, the shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed will be selected either (1)&#160;pro rata among Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock or (2)&#160;by lot. If fewer than all shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption mailed to such holder will also specify the number of shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder or the method of determining such number. We may provide in any Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption relating to a redemption contemplated to be effected pursuant to the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that we will not be required to effect such redemption unless each such condition has been satisfied.

We will be entitled to receive, promptly after the Series&#160;C Redemption Date, any Deposit Securities in excess of the aggregate redemption price of shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock called for redemption on the Series&#160;C Redemption Date. Any Deposit Securities so deposited that are unclaimed at the end of 90 calendar days from the Series&#160;C Redemption Date will, to the extent permitted by law, be repaid to us, after which the holders of shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock so called for redemption can look only to us for payment of the Series&#160;C Redemption Price.

No default will be deemed to have occurred if we have failed to deposit in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent the applicable redemption price with respect to any shares where (1)&#160;the Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption relating to such redemption provided that such redemption was subject to one or more conditions precedent and (2)&#160;any such condition precedent has not been satisfied at the time or times and in the manner specified in such Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption. Notwithstanding the fact that a Series&#160;C Notice of Redemption has been provided with respect to any shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on such shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock in accordance with their terms if Deposit Securities for the payment of the redemption price of such shares of Series&#160;C Term Preferred Stock have not been deposited in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent for that purpose.&lt;/p&gt;

Dividends that are in arrears for any past Series&#160;D Dividend Period may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Series&#160;D Dividend Payment Date. Such payments are made to holders of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on such date, which date will not be more than 20 nor less than 7 calendar days before the payment date, as may be fixed by our board of directors. Any payment of dividends in arrears will first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on any Series&#160;D Preferred Stock which may be in arrears.

The term senior security also does not include any such promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness in any case where such a loan is for temporary purposes only and in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of our total assets at the time when the loan is made; a loan is presumed under the 1940 Act to be for temporary purposes if it is repaid within 60 calendar days and is not extended or renewed; otherwise such loan is presumed not to be for temporary purposes.&lt;/p&gt;

A Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption will be provided not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption in such Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption, or the &#x201c;Series&#160;D Redemption Date.&#x201d; If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to either the mandatory redemption provisions triggered by our failure to maintain the required asset coverage or the optional redemption provisions, the shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock to be redeemed will be selected either (1)&#160;pro rata among Series&#160;D Preferred Stock or (2)&#160;by lot. If fewer than all shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption mailed to such holder will also specify the number of shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder or the method of determining such number. We may provide in any Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption relating to a redemption contemplated to be effected pursuant to the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;D Preferred Stock that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that we will not be required to effect such redemption unless each such condition has been satisfied. No defect in any Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption or delivery thereof will affect the validity of redemption proceedings except as required by applicable law.&lt;/p&gt;

We will be entitled to receive, promptly after the Series&#160;D Redemption Date, any Deposit Securities in excess of the aggregate redemption price of shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock called for redemption on the Series&#160;D Redemption Date. Any Deposit Securities so deposited that are unclaimed at the end of 90 calendar days from the Series&#160;D Redemption Date will, to the extent permitted by law, be repaid to us, after which the holders of shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock so called for redemption can look only to us for payment of the Series&#160;D Redemption Price.

No default will be deemed to have occurred if we have failed to deposit in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent the applicable redemption price with respect to any shares where (1)&#160;the Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption relating to such redemption provided that such redemption was subject to one or more conditions precedent and (2)&#160;any such condition precedent has not been satisfied at the time or times and in the manner specified in such Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption. Notwithstanding the fact that a Series&#160;D Notice of Redemption has been provided with respect to any shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on such shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock in accordance with their terms if Deposit Securities for the payment of the redemption price of such shares of Series&#160;D Preferred Stock have not been deposited in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent for that purpose.&lt;/p&gt;

Dividends will be paid by the Redemption and Payment Agent to the holders of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on the applicable record date preceding the applicable Series&#160;F Dividend Payment Date. Dividends that are in arrears for any past Series&#160;F Dividend Period may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Series&#160;F Dividend Payment Date. Such payments are made to holders of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock as their names appear on our registration books on such date, which date will not be more than 20 nor less than 7 calendar days before the payment date, as may be fixed by our board of directors. Any payment of dividends in arrears will first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on any Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock which may be in arrears.

If full cumulative dividends and distributions due have not been declared and paid on all outstanding shares of preferred stock of any series, any dividends and distributions being declared and paid on Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock will be declared and paid as nearly pro rata as possible in proportion to the respective amounts of dividends and distributions accumulated but unpaid on the shares of each such series of preferred stock on the relevant Series&#160;F Dividend Payment Date.

The term senior security also does not include any such promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness in any case where such a loan is for temporary purposes only and in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of our total assets at the time when the loan is made; a loan is presumed under the 1940 Act to be for temporary purposes if it is repaid within 60 calendar days and is not extended or renewed; otherwise such loan is presumed not to be for temporary purposes.&lt;/p&gt;

A Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption will be provided not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption in such Notice of Redemption, or the &#x201c;Series&#160;F Redemption Date.&#x201d; If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to either the mandatory redemption provisions triggered by our failure to maintain the required asset coverage or the optional redemption provisions, the shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed will be selected either (1)&#160;pro rata among Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, (2)&#160;by lot, or (3)&#160;in such other manner as our board of directors may determine to be fair and equitable. If fewer than all shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption mailed to such holder will also specify the number of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder or the method of determining such number. We may provide in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption relating to a redemption contemplated to be effected pursuant to the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that we will not be required to effect such redemption unless each such condition has been satisfied. No defect in any Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption or delivery thereof will affect the validity of redemption proceedings except as required by applicable law.&lt;/p&gt;
                &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
                &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in"&gt;If we give a Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption, then at any time from and after the giving of such Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption and prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Series&#160;F Redemption Date (so long as any conditions precedent to such redemption have been met or waived by us), we will (i)&#160;deposit with the Redemption and Paying Agent Deposit Securities having an aggregate market value at the time of deposit not less than the redemption price of the shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock to be redeemed on the Series&#160;F Redemption Date and (ii)&#160;give the Redemption and Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the applicable redemption price to the holders of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock called for redemption on the Series&#160;F Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Series&#160;F Redemption Date is the Mandatory Redemption Date, then such deposit of Deposit Securities will be made no later than 15 calendar days prior to the Mandatory Redemption Date.&lt;/p&gt;

                &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in"&gt;Upon the date of the deposit of Deposit Securities by us for purposes of redemption of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, all rights of the holders of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock so called for redemption will cease and terminate except the right of the holders thereof to receive the applicable redemption price and such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock will no longer be deemed outstanding for any purpose whatsoever (other than the transfer thereof prior to the applicable Series&#160;F Redemption Date and other than the accumulation of dividends on such stock in accordance with the terms of the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock up to, but excluding, the applicable Series&#160;F Redemption Date). We will be entitled to receive, promptly after the Series&#160;F Redemption Date, any Deposit Securities in excess of the aggregate redemption price of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock called for redemption on the Series&#160;F Redemption Date. Any Deposit Securities so deposited that are unclaimed at the end of 90 calendar days from the Series&#160;F Redemption Date will, to the extent permitted by law, be repaid to us, after which the holders of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock so called for redemption can look only to us for payment of the Series&#160;F Redemption Price. We will be entitled to receive, from time to time after the Series&#160;F Redemption Date, any interest on the Deposit Securities so deposited.&lt;/p&gt;
                &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
                &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in"&gt;If any redemption for which a Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption has been provided is not made by reason of the absence of our legally available funds in accordance with the certificate of designation and applicable law, such redemption will be made as soon as practicable to the extent such funds become available. No default will be deemed to have occurred if we have failed to deposit in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent the applicable redemption price with respect to any shares where (1)&#160;the Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption relating to such redemption provided that such redemption was subject to one or more conditions precedent and (2)&#160;any such condition precedent has not been satisfied at the time or times and in the manner specified in such Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption. Notwithstanding the fact that a Series&#160;F Notice of Redemption has been provided with respect to any shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock in accordance with their terms if Deposit Securities for the payment of the redemption price of such shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock have not been deposited in trust with the Redemption and Paying Agent for that purpose.&lt;/p&gt;
              &lt;/div&gt;

              &lt;p style="font:10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;margin:0pt 0;text-align:justify;text-indent:0.25in"&gt;We may, in our sole discretion and without a stockholder vote, modify the redemption procedures with respect to notification of redemption for the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, provided that such modification does not materially and adversely affect the holders of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock or cause us to violate any applicable law, rule&#160;or regulation.&lt;/p&gt;

The holders of outstanding shares of our common stock together with the holders of outstanding shares of our preferred stock, voting together as a single class, will elect the remaining members of the board of directors. Under our certificate of incorporation, our directors are divided into three classes, with the term of one class expiring at each annual meeting of our stockholders.

The terms of office of the persons who are directors at the time of that election will not be affected by the election of the New Preferred Directors.

Any preferred stock issued after the date hereof will vote with the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock as a single class on the matters described above, and the issuance of any other preferred stock by us may reduce the voting power of the holders of the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock.&lt;/p&gt;

If we fail to call such a special meeting, it may be called at our expense by any such holder on like notice. The record date for determining the holders of shares of preferred stock entitled to notice of and to vote at such special meeting shall be the close of business on the business day preceding the calendar day on which such notice is mailed. At any such special meeting and at each meeting of holders of shares of preferred stock held during a Voting Period at which directors are to be elected, such holders, voting together as a class (to the exclusion of the holders of all our other securities and classes of capital stock), will be entitled to elect the number of New Preferred Directors prescribed above on a one-vote-per-share basis.&lt;/p&gt;

So long as any shares of preferred stock are outstanding, we will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares of the preferred stock outstanding at the time, voting as a separate class, file a voluntary application for relief under federal bankruptcy law or any similar application under state law for so long as we are solvent and does not foresee becoming insolvent.&lt;/p&gt;

For purposes of the foregoing, the vote of a &#x201c;majority of the outstanding shares of preferred stock&#x201d; means the vote at an annual or special meeting duly called (a)&#160;of 67% or more of such shares present at a meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy at such meeting, or (b)&#160;of more than 50% of such outstanding shares, whichever is less.&lt;/p&gt;

No shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock held by us will have any voting rights or be deemed to be outstanding for voting or for calculating the voting percentage required on any other matter or other purposes.&lt;/p&gt;

The holders of shares of Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock will have no rights to cumulative voting. In the event that we fail to declare or pay any dividends on shares of the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, the exclusive remedy of the holders will be the right to vote for additional directors as discussed above; provided that the foregoing does not affect our obligation to accumulate and, if permitted by applicable law and the certificate of designation for the Series&#160;F Term Preferred Stock, pay dividends at the Series&#160;F Default Rate as discussed above.&lt;/p&gt;
