Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and can be identified by words such as &#34;anticipate,&#34; &#34;estimate,&#34; &#34;will,&#34; &#34;should,&#34; &#34;may,&#34; &#34;expect,&#34; &#34;project,&#34; &#34;believe,&#34; &#34;intend,&#34; &#34;seek,&#34; &#34;plan&#34; and similar expressions or their negative forms, or by references to strategy, plans, or intentions. Forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future operations, business strategies, performance, financial condition, liquidity and prospects, taking into account information currently available to us.

If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and strategies may vary materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. The following factors are examples of those that could cause actual results to vary from those stated or implied by our forward-looking statements&#58; changes in interest rates and the market value of our investments, market volatility, changes in the default rates on corporate loans, our ability to borrow to finance our assets, changes in government regulations affecting our business, a deterioration in the market for collateralized loan obligations, our ability to adapt to the new regulatory regime associated with our conversion to a closed-end fund&#47;RIC, potential business disruption related to our conversion to a closed-end fund&#47;RIC, ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of our conversion to a closed-end fund&#47;RIC, and other changes in market conditions and economic trends, such as changes to fiscal or monetary policy, heightened inflation, increased tariffs, slower growth or recession, and currency fluctuations. Furthermore, as stated above, forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, those described under the heading &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; in our Registration Statement on Form N-2, which can be accessed through the link to our SEC filings under &#34;For Investors&#34; on our website (at www.ellingtoncredit.com) or at the SEC's website (www.sec.gov).
