<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">----------------------------</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">NEW YORK, NY (August 17,
2021) &ndash; On August   16, 2021, the co-chief executive officers of CION Investment Corporation (&ldquo;CIC&rdquo;), a
CION Investments company, declared&nbsp;regular monthly cash distributions for September 2021.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"> The regular monthly cash
distributions of $0.04413 per share will be paid on September 14, 2021 to shareholders of record as of September  13, 2021.
Shareholders who previously elected to receive distributions in additional shares of CIC common stock pursuant to CIC&rsquo;s
distribution reinvestment plan will be issued additional shares for the September 2021 distributions on September 14, 2021.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B></B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>Certain Information About Distributions</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The determination of the tax attributes
of CIC&rsquo;s distributions is made annually as of the end of CIC&rsquo;s fiscal year based upon its taxable income and distributions
paid, in each case, for the full year. Therefore, a determination as to the tax attributes of the distributions made on a quarterly
basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes for a full year. CIC intends to update shareholders quarterly with
an estimated percentage of its distributions that resulted from taxable ordinary income. The actual tax characteristics of distributions
to shareholders will be reported to shareholders annually on a Form 1099-DIV. The payment of future distributions on CIC&rsquo;s
common stock is subject to the discretion of the Board and applicable legal restrictions, and therefore, there can be no assurance
as to the amount or timing of any such future distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">CIC&nbsp;may fund&nbsp;its cash
distributions to shareholders from any sources of funds available to it, including borrowings, net investment income from
operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other
distributions paid to&nbsp;it on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense&nbsp;support
from CION Investment Management, LLC (&ldquo;CIM&rdquo;), which&nbsp;is subject to recoupment.&nbsp; The purpose of this arrangement
is to avoid such distributions being characterized as a return of capital. Shareholders should understand that any distributions funded by expense
support from CIM are not based on CIC&rsquo;s investment performance, and any such distributions can only be sustained if CIC maintains
positive investment performance in future periods and/or CIM continues to provide such expense support. Shareholders should also understand
that CIC&rsquo;s future repayments of expense support will reduce the distributions that they would otherwise receive. There can be no
assurance that CIC will be able to pay distributions at all. CIM has no obligation to provide expense support to CIC in future periods.
To date, distributions have not been paid from offering proceeds and distributions have not included a return of capital. CIC has not
established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions.</P>
