regulated pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940 (&ldquo;1940 Act&rdquo;), we may invest up to 30% of our assets in non-qualifying
portfolio investments, as permitted by the 1940 Act. Specifically, we may invest up to 30% of our assets in entities that are not
considered &ldquo;eligible portfolio companies&rdquo; (as defined in the 1940 Act), including companies located outside of the
United States, entities that are operating pursuant to certain exceptions under the 1940 Act, and publicly-traded entities with
a market capitalization exceeding $250 million. As of March 31, 2018, we had invested 84.5% of our assets in securities of portfolio

as of March 31, 2018. Changes in business or industry trends or in the financial condition, results of operations, or the market&rsquo;s

Total Return, Inc. (<I>&ldquo;we,&rdquo; &ldquo;us,&rdquo; &ldquo;our,&rdquo; &ldquo;Equus&rdquo; and the &ldquo;Fund</I>&rdquo;),
a Delaware corporation, was formed by Equus Investments II, L.P. (the &ldquo;Partnership&rdquo;) on August 16, 1991. On July 1,
1992, the Partnership was reorganized and all of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership were transferred to the Fund in
exchange for shares of common stock of the Fund. Our shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol EQS. On August
11, 2006, our shareholders approved the change of the Fund&rsquo;s investment strategy to a total return investment objective.
This strategy seeks to provide the highest total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. In connection with
this strategic investment change, the shareholders also approved the change of name from Equus II Incorporated to Equus Total Return,
Inc.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">So long as we remain an investment company
and not an operating company as contemplated in our <I>Plan of Reorganization</I> described in Note 6 below, we will attempt to
maximize the return to stockholders in the form of current investment income and long-term capital gains by investing in the debt
and equity securities of companies with a total enterprise value of between $5.0 million and $75.0 million, although we may engage
in transactions with smaller or larger investee companies from time to time. We seek to invest primarily in companies pursuing
growth either through acquisition or organically, leveraged buyouts, management buyouts and recapitalizations of existing businesses
or special situations. Our income-producing investments consist principally of debt securities including subordinate debt, debt
convertible into common or preferred stock, or debt combined with warrants and common and preferred stock. Debt and preferred equity
financing may also be used to create long-term capital appreciation through the exercise and sale of warrants received in connection
with the financing. We seek to achieve capital appreciation by making investments in equity and equity-oriented securities issued
by privately-owned companies (or smaller public companies) in transactions negotiated directly with such companies. Given market
conditions over the past several years and the performance of our portfolio, our Management and Board of Directors believe it prudent
to continue to review alternatives to refine and further clarify the current strategies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">We elected to be treated as a BDC under
the 1940 Act. We currently qualify as a regulated investment company (&ldquo;RIC&rdquo;) for federal income tax purposes and, therefore,
are not required to pay corporate income taxes on any income or gains that we distribute to our stockholders. We have certain wholly
owned taxable subsidiaries (&ldquo;Taxable Subsidiaries&rdquo;) each of which holds one or more portfolio investments listed on
our Schedules of Investments. The purpose of these Taxable Subsidiaries is to permit us to hold certain income-producing investments
or portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies, or LLCs, (or other forms of pass-through entities) and still satisfy
the RIC tax requirement that at least 90% of our gross revenue for income tax purposes must consist of investment income. Absent
the Taxable Subsidiaries, a portion of the gross income of these income-producing investments or of any LLC (or other pass-through

did not consist of investment income, it could jeopardize our ability to qualify as a RIC and, therefore, cause us to incur significant
federal income taxes. The income of the LLCs (or other pass-through entities) owned by Taxable Subsidiaries is taxed to the Taxable
Subsidiaries and does not flow through to us, thereby helping us preserve our RIC status and resultant tax advantages. We do not
consolidate the Taxable Subsidiaries for income tax purposes and they may generate income tax expense because of the Taxable Subsidiaries&rsquo;
ownership of the portfolio companies. We reflect any such income tax expense on our Statements of Operations.</P>

and economic volatility which has become endemic in the past few years has resulted in a relatively limited amount of available
debt financing for small and medium-sized companies such as Equus and its portfolio companies. Such debt financing generally has
shorter maturities, higher interest rates and fees, and more restrictive terms than debt facilities available in the past. In addition,
during these years and continuing into the first three months of 2018, the price of our common stock remained well below our net
asset value, thereby making it undesirable to issue additional shares of our common stock below net asset value. Because of these
challenges, our near-term strategies shifted from originating debt and equity investments to preserving liquidity necessary to
meet our operational needs. Key initiatives that we have previously undertaken to provide necessary liquidity include monetizations,
the suspension of dividends and the internalization of management. We are also evaluating potential opportunities that could enable
us to effect a Consolidation and become an operating company as described in Note 6 &ndash; <I>Plan of Reorganization</I> below.

M&amp;A transactions and/or a discounted cash flow analysis. The net asset value analysis is used to derive a value of an underlying
investment (such as real estate property) by dividing a relevant earnings stream by an appropriate capitalization rate. For this
purpose, we consider capitalization rates for similar properties as may be obtained from guideline public companies and/or relevant
transactions. The liquidation analysis is intended to approximate the net recovery value of an investment based on, among other
things, assumptions regarding liquidation proceeds based on a hypothetical liquidation of a portfolio company&rsquo;s assets. The
discounted cash flow analysis uses valuation techniques to convert future cash flows or earnings to a range of fair values from
which a single estimate may be derived utilizing an appropriate discount rate. The measurement is based on the net present value

we perform a yield analysis assuming a hypothetical current sale of the security to determine if a debt security has been impaired.&nbsp;The
yield analysis considers changes in interest rates and changes in leverage levels of the portfolio company as compared to the market
interest rates and leverage levels. Assuming the credit quality of the portfolio company remains stable, the Fund will use the
value determined by the yield analysis as the fair value for that security if less than the cost of the investment.</P>

value is the price 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 and sets out a fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level
3). Inputs are broadly defined as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The three levels
of the fair value hierarchy are described below:</P>

for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The
inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information under the circumstances and may require significant
management judgment or estimation.</P>

measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment&rsquo;s level within
the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors

observable are generally private investments in the debt and equity securities of operating companies. The primary valuation method
used to estimate the fair value of these Level 3 investments is the discounted cash flow method (although a liquidation analysis,
option theoretical, or other methodology may be used when more appropriate). The discounted cash flow approach to determine fair
value (or a range of fair values) involves applying an appropriate discount rate(s) to the estimated future cash flows using</P>

comparing the latest arm&rsquo;s length or market transactions involving the subject security to the selected benchmark credit
spread, assumed growth rate (in cash flows), and capitalization rates/multiples (for determining terminal values of underlying
portfolio companies). The valuation based on the inputs determined to be the most reasonable and probable is used as the fair value
of the investment. The determination of fair value using these methodologies may take into consideration a range of factors including,
but not limited to, the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading
values on public exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance, financing transactions subsequent
to the acquisition of the investment and anticipated financing transactions after the valuation date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">To assess the reasonableness of the
discounted cash flow approach, the fair value of equity securities, including warrants, in portfolio companies may also consider
the market approach&mdash;that is, through analyzing and applying to the underlying portfolio companies, market valuation multiples
of publicly-traded firms engaged in businesses similar to those of the portfolio companies. The market approach to determining
the fair value of a portfolio company&rsquo;s equity security (or securities) will typically involve: (1) applying to the portfolio
company&rsquo;s trailing twelve months (or current year projected) EBITDA a low to high range of enterprise value to EBITDA multiples
that are derived from an analysis of publicly-traded comparable companies, in order to arrive at a range of enterprise values for
the portfolio company; (2) subtracting from the range of calculated enterprise values the outstanding balances of any debt or equity
securities that would be senior in right of payment to the equity securities we hold; and (3) multiplying the range of equity values
derived therefrom by our ownership share of such equity tranche in order to arrive at a range of fair values for our equity security
(or securities). Application of these valuation methodologies involves a significant degree of judgment by Management.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining
the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may
differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially
from the values that may ultimately be received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other
restrictions or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded instruments. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment
in a forced or liquidation sale, we might realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been
recorded. With respect to Level 3 investments, where sufficient market quotations are not readily available or for which no or
an insufficient number of indicative prices from pricing services or brokers or dealers have been received, we undertake, on a
quarterly basis, our valuation process as described above.</P>

commitments to our portfolio company investments; however, under certain circumstances, we may be called on to make follow-on investments
in certain portfolio companies. If we do not have sufficient funds to make follow-on investments, the portfolio company in need
of the investment may be negatively impacted. Also, our equity interest in the estimated fair value of the portfolio company could

record interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis to the extent that
we expect to collect such amounts. We accrete or amortize discounts and premiums on securities purchased over the life of the respective
security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion
of discount and/or amortization of premium on debt securities. We stop accruing interest on investments when we determine that
interest is no longer collectible. We may also impair the accrued interest when we determine that all or a portion of the current
accrual is uncollectible. If we receive any cash after determining that interest is no longer collectible, we treat such cash as
payment on the principal balance until the entire principal balance has been repaid, before we recognize any additional interest
income. We will write off uncollectible interest upon the occurrence of a definitive event such as a sale, bankruptcy, or reorganization
of the relevant portfolio interest.</P>

industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the ASC. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should
recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Under the new guidance, an entity is required
to perform the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in
the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract,
and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The new guidance will significantly enhance
comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets. Additionally, the
guidance requires improved disclosures as to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized.</P>

Exchange with MVC Capital</B> &mdash;On May 14, 2014, we announced that the Fund intended to effect a reorganization pursuant to
Section 2(a)(33) of the 1940 Act (hereinafter, the &ldquo;Plan of Reorganization&rdquo;). As a first step to consummating the Plan
of Reorganization, we sold to MVC Capital, Inc. (&ldquo;MVC&rdquo;) 2,112,000 newly-issued shares of the Fund&rsquo;s common stock
in exchange for 395,839 shares of MVC (such transaction is hereinafter referred to as the &ldquo;Share Exchange&rdquo;). MVC is
a business development company traded on the NYSE that provides long-term debt and equity investment capital to fund growth, acquisitions
and recapitalizations of companies in a variety of industries. The Share Exchange was calculated based on the Fund&rsquo;s and
MVC&rsquo;s respective net asset value per share. At the time of the Share Exchange, the number of MVC shares received by Equus
represented approximately 1.73% of MVC&rsquo;s total outstanding shares of common stock.</P>

Agreement, dated May 12, 2014, entered into by Equus and MVC which memorialized the Share Exchange, we intend to finalize the Plan
of Reorganization by pursuing a merger or consolidation with MVC, a subsidiary of MVC, or one or more of MVC&rsquo;s portfolio
companies (the &ldquo;Consolidation&rdquo;). Absent Equus merging or consolidating with/into MVC or a subsidiary thereof, our current
intention is for Equus to (i) consummate the Consolidation with a portfolio company of MVC, (ii) terminate its election to be classified
as a BDC under the 1940 Act, and (iii) be restructured as a publicly-traded operating company focused on the energy and/or financial
services sector.</P>

with ETR Merger Sub, Inc., a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Equus, certain shareholders of USG&amp;E, and MVC as a selling
shareholder of U.S. Gas &amp; Electric, Inc. (&ldquo;USG&amp;E&rdquo;) and as representative of the selling USG&amp;E shareholders.
On May 30, 2017, USG&amp;E and MVC notified us that they had accepted a proposal from Crius Energy Trust, that was considered by
the respective boards of directors of USG&amp;E and MVC to constitute a &ldquo;Superior Proposal&rdquo; (as such term is defined
in the Merger Agreement) to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, and, accordingly, provided us with a notice of termination
pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Further, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, USG&amp;E paid us a termination fee of $2.5 million
(see Note 4 &ndash; <I>Related Party Transactions and Agreements</I> below).</P>

the termination of the Merger Agreement with USG&amp;E described above, we intend to pursue a Consolidation and the completion
of our Plan of Reorganization with another operating company and withdraw our BDC election if so authorized by our stockholders.
While we are presently evaluating various opportunities that could enable us to accomplish a Consolidation, we cannot assure you
that we will be able to do so within any particular time period or at all. Moreover, we cannot assure you that the terms of any
such transaction that would embody a Consolidation would be acceptable to us.</P>

January 6, 2017 and again on August 25, 2017, holders of a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Fund approved our cessation

BDC, each effective as of a date designated by the Board and our Chief Executive Officer. These separate authorizations, which
have since expired, were given as a consequence of the Plan of Reorganization described above. As our intention is to continue
to seek a transformative transaction that would result in a Consolidation under our Plan of Reorganization, we anticipate that
we will again receive such an authorization in 2018. Notwithstanding any such authorization to withdraw our BDC election, we will
not submit any such withdrawal unless and until Equus has entered into a definitive agreement to effect a Consolidation. Further,
even if we are again authorized to withdraw our election as a BDC, we will require a subsequent affirmative vote from holders of
a majority of our outstanding voting shares to enter into any such definitive agreement or change the nature of our business.</P>

Incentive Compensation</B>&mdash;On June 13, 2016, our shareholders approved the adoption of our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (&ldquo;Incentive
Plan&rdquo;). On January 10, 2017, the SEC issued an order approving the Incentive Plan and certain awards intended to be made
thereunder. The Incentive Plan is intended to promote the interests of the Fund by encouraging officers, employees, and directors
of the Fund and its affiliates to acquire or increase their equity interest in the Fund and to provide a means whereby they may
develop a proprietary interest in the development and financial success of the Fund, to encourage them to remain with and devote
their best efforts to the business of the Fund, thereby advancing the interests of the Fund and its stockholders. The Incentive
Plan is also intended to enhance the ability of the Fund and its affiliates to attract and retain the services of individuals who
are essential for the growth and profitability of the Fund. The Incentive Plan permits the award of restricted stock as well as
common stock purchase options. The maximum number of shares of common stock that are subject to awards granted under the Incentive
Plan is 2,434,728 shares. The term of the Incentive Plan will expire on June 13, 2026. On March 17, 2017, we granted awards of
restricted stock under the Incentive Plan to certain of our directors and executive officers in the aggregate amount of 844,500
shares. The awards are each subject to a vesting requirement over a 3-year period unless the recipient thereof is terminated or
removed from their position as a director or executive officer without &ldquo;cause&rdquo;, or as a result of constructive termination,
as such terms are defined in the respective award agreements entered into by each of the recipients and the Fund. As of March 31,
2018, 280,000 shares of restricted stock which were granted pursuant to the Incentive Plan, remained unvested. We account for share-based
compensation using the fair value method, as prescribed by ASC 718, <I>Compensation&mdash;Stock Compensation</I>. Accordingly,
for restricted stock awards, we measure the grant date fair value based upon the market price of our common stock on the date of
the grant and amortize the fair value of the awards as share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which
is generally the vesting term. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we recorded compensation expense of $0.2 million
and $0.5 million, respectively, in connection with these awards.</FONT>&nbsp;</P>

2011 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund to make investments in companies in the energy sector, with particular emphasis on
income-producing oil &amp; gas properties. In December 2011, we contributed $250,000 to the capital of Equus Energy. On December
27, 2012, we invested an additional $6.8 million in Equus Energy for the purpose of additional working capital and to fund the
purchase of $6.6 million in working interests, which presently comprise 144 producing and non-producing oil and gas wells. The
working interests include associated development rights of approximately 22,360 acres situated on 12 separate properties in Texas
and Oklahoma. The working interests range from a <I>de minimus</I> amount to 50% of the leasehold that includes these wells.</P>

interests located in the Conger Field, a productive oil and gas field on the edge of the Permian Basin that has experienced successful
gas and hydrocarbon extraction in multiple formations. Equus Energy, which holds a 50% working interest in each of these Conger
Field wells, is working with Chevron in a recompletion program of existing Conger Field wells to the Wolfcamp formation, a zone
containing oil as well as gas and natural gas liquids. Part of Equus Energy&rsquo;s acreage rights described above also includes
a 50% working interest in possible new drilling to the base of the Canyon formation (approximately 8,500 feet) on 2,400 acres in
the Conger Field. Also included in the interests acquired by Equus Energy are working interests of 7.5% and 2.5% in the Burnell
and North Pettus Units, respectively, which collectively comprise approximately 13,000 acres located in the area known as the &ldquo;Eagle
Ford Shale&rdquo; play.</P>

follow the <I>Full Cost Method of Accounting</I> for oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with
property acquisition, exploration, and development activities are capitalized. Capitalized costs include lease acquisitions, geological
and geophysical work, delay rentals, costs of drilling, completing and equipping successful and unsuccessful oil and gas wells
and related costs. Gains or losses are normally not recognized on the sale or other disposition of oil and gas properties. Gains
or losses are normally reflected as an adjustment to the full cost pool.</P>

to the members. However, the Company is subject to certain state income taxes. Texas margin tax applies to legal entities conducting
business in Texas. The margin tax is based on our Texas sourced taxable margin. The tax is calculated by applying a tax rate to
a base that considers both revenue and expenses and therefore has the characteristics of an income tax. Taxable Subsidiaries may
generate income tax expense because of the Taxable Subsidiaries&rsquo; ownership of the portfolio companies. We reflect any such
income tax expense on our Statements of Operations.&nbsp; As of March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, the Company had no federal income
tax expense.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">We attempt to maximize the return to
stockholders in the form of current investment income and long-term capital gains by investing in the debt and equity securities
of companies with a total enterprise value of between $5.0 million and $75.0 million, although we may engage in transactions with
smaller or larger investee companies from time to time. We seek to invest primarily in companies pursuing growth either through
acquisition or organically, leveraged buyouts, management buyouts and recapitalizations of existing businesses or special situations.
Our income-producing investments consist principally of debt securities including subordinate debt, debt convertible into common
or preferred stock, or debt combined with warrants and common and preferred stock. Debt and preferred equity financing may also
be used to create long-term capital appreciation through the exercise and sale of warrants received in connection with the financing.
We seek to achieve capital appreciation by making investments in equity and equity-oriented securities issued by privately-owned
companies (and smaller public companies) in transactions negotiated directly with such companies. Given market conditions over
the past several years and the performance of our portfolio, our management and Board of Directors believe it is prudent to continue
to review alternatives to refine and further clarify the current strategies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">We elected to be treated as a BDC under
the 1940 Act. We currently qualify as a RIC for federal income tax purposes and, therefore, are not required to pay corporate income
taxes on any income or gains that we distribute to our stockholders. We have certain wholly owned Taxable Subsidiaries each of
which holds one or more portfolio investments listed on our Schedules of Investments. The purpose of these Taxable Subsidiaries
is to permit us to hold certain income-producing investments or portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies, or
LLCs, (or other forms of pass-through entities) and still satisfy the RIC tax requirement that at least 90% of our gross revenue
for income tax purposes must consist of investment income. Absent the Taxable Subsidiaries, a portion of the gross income of these
income-producing investments or of any LLC (or other pass-through entity) portfolio investment, as the case may be, would flow
through directly to us for the 90% test. To the extent that such income did not consist of investment income, it could jeopardize
our ability to qualify as a RIC and, therefore, cause us to incur significant federal income taxes. The income of the LLCs (or
other pass-through entities) owned by Taxable Subsidiaries is taxed to the Taxable Subsidiaries and does not flow through to us,
thereby helping us preserve our RIC status and resultant tax advantages. We do not consolidate the Taxable Subsidiaries for income
tax purposes and they may generate income tax expense because of the Taxable Subsidiaries&rsquo; ownership of the portfolio investments.
We reflect any such income tax expense on our Statements of Operations.</P>

Exchange with MVC Capital</B> &mdash;On May 14, 2014, we announced that the Fund intended to effect a reorganization pursuant to
Section 2(a)(33) of the 1940 Act (hereinafter, the &ldquo;Plan of Reorganization&rdquo;). As a first step to consummating the Plan
of Reorganization, we sold to MVC Capital, Inc. (&ldquo;MVC&rdquo;) 2,112,000 newly-issued shares of the Fund&rsquo;s common stock
in exchange for 395,839 shares of MVC (such transaction is hereinafter referred to as the &ldquo;Share Exchange&rdquo;). MVC is
a business development company traded on the NYSE that provides long-term debt and equity investment capital to fund growth, acquisitions
and recapitalizations of companies in a variety of industries. The Share Exchange was calculated based on the Fund&rsquo;s and
MVC&rsquo;s respective net asset value per share. At the time of the Share Exchange, the number of MVC shares received by Equus
represented approximately 1.73% of MVC&rsquo;s total outstanding shares of common stock.</P>

Agreement, dated May 12, 2014, entered into by Equus and MVC which memorialized the Share Exchange, we intend to finalize the Plan
of Reorganization by pursuing a merger or consolidation with MVC, a subsidiary of MVC, or one or more of MVC&rsquo;s portfolio
companies (the &ldquo;Consolidation&rdquo;). Absent Equus merging or consolidating with/into MVC or a subsidiary thereof, our current
intention is for Equus to (i) terminate its election to be classified
as a BDC under the 1940 Act, and (ii) be restructured as a publicly-traded operating company focused on the energy and/or financial
services sector.</P>

shareholder of U.S. Gas &amp; Electric, Inc. (&ldquo;USG&amp;E&rdquo;) and as representative of the selling USG&amp;E shareholders.
On May 30, 2017, USG&amp;E and MVC notified us that they had accepted a proposal from Crius Energy Trust, that was considered by
the respective boards of directors of USG&amp;E and MVC to constitute a &ldquo;Superior Proposal&rdquo; (as such term is defined
in the Merger Agreement) to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, and, accordingly, provided us with a notice of termination
pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Further, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, USG&amp;E paid us a termination fee of $2.5 million

While we are presently evaluating various opportunities that could enable us to accomplish a Consolidation, we cannot assure you

BDC, each effective as of a date designated by the Board and our Chief Executive Officer. These separate authorizations, which
have since expired, were given as a consequence of the Plan of Reorganization described above. As our intention is to continue
to seek a transformative transaction that would result in a Consolidation under our Plan of Reorganization, we anticipate that
we will again receive such an authorization in 2018. Notwithstanding any such authorization to withdraw our BDC election, we will
not submit any such withdrawal unless and until Equus has entered into a definitive agreement to effect a Consolidation. Further,
even if we are again authorized to withdraw our election as a BDC, we will require a subsequent affirmative vote from holders of
a majority of our outstanding voting shares to enter into any such definitive agreement or change the nature of our business.</P>

the adoption of our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (&ldquo;Incentive Plan&rdquo;). On January 10, 2017, the SEC issued an order approving
the Incentive Plan and certain awards intended to be made thereunder. The Incentive Plan is intended to promote the interests of
the Fund by encouraging officers, employees, and directors of the Fund and its affiliates to acquire or increase their equity interest
in the Fund and to provide a means whereby they may develop a proprietary interest in the development and financial success of
the Fund, to encourage them to remain with and devote their best efforts to the business of the Fund, thereby advancing the interests
of the Fund and its stockholders. The Incentive Plan is also intended to enhance the ability of the Fund and its affiliates to
attract and retain the services of individuals who are essential for the growth and profitability of the Fund. The Incentive Plan
permits the award of restricted stock as well as common stock purchase options. The maximum number of shares of common stock that
are subject to awards granted under the Incentive Plan is 2,434,728 shares. The term of the Incentive Plan will expire on June
13, 2026. On March 17, 2017, we granted awards of restricted stock under the Plan to certain of our directors and executive officers
in the aggregate amount of 844,500 shares. The awards are each subject to a vesting requirement over a 3-year period unless the
recipient thereof is terminated or removed from their position as a director or executive officer without &ldquo;cause&rdquo;,
or as a result of constructive termination, as such terms are defined in the respective award agreements entered into by each of
the recipients and the Fund. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we recorded compensation expense of $0.2 million
and $0.5 million, respectively, in connection with these awards.</P>

Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period
and end-of-period amounts shown on the statements of cash flows. The amendments of this ASU should be applied using a retrospective
transition method and are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We

2016-19, <I>Technical Corrections and Improvements, </I>which makes minor corrections and clarifications that affect a wide variety
of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, including an amendment to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, which clarifies
the difference between a valuation approach and a valuation technique when applying the guidance of that Topic. The amendment also
requires an entity to disclose when there has been a change in either or both a valuation approach and/or a valuation technique.
The transition guidance for the ASC Topic 820 amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the
use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. Early application is permitted for any fiscal year or interim
period for which the entity&rsquo;s financial statements have not yet been issued. Our adoption of this ASU did not have an impact

industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the ASC. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should
recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Under the new guidance, an entity is required
to perform the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in
the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract,
and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The new guidance will significantly enhance
comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets. Additionally, the
guidance requires improved disclosures as to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized.</P>

rate of 2.3% during the first quarter of 2018, following an annualized increase of 3.2% and 2.9% during the third and fourth quarters,
respectively, of 2017. Despite a labor market at near full employment, the more modest increase in the first quarter of 2018 as
compared to the two previous quarters was reflective of decreased consumer spending and lower orders for durable goods. The Conference
Board Economic Forecast, however, projects overall GDP growth in 2018 to be 2.8%, increasing to 3.0% in 2019, with expectations
of continued strong consumer spending and low unemployment offset by slower export growth to Europe and emerging markets. Overall
housing starts continued to show tepid growth throughout the first quarter, increasing 1.9% to 1.3 million units during March 2018,
but also showing weakness in single family home starts, which fell 3.7% during the month. Sales of existing homes also increased
a modest 1.1% in March 2018, but amid high inventories, many economists see this figure decreasing through the rest of 2018. Business
investment slowed during the first quarter of 2018 due to lower purchases of durable goods with the exception of civilian aircraft.

decreased 10%, indicating a more concentrated number of high value transactions. Spurred by U.S. tax code changes, market
conditions for business transactions during 2017 and the first quarter of 2018 have continued to steadily improve, continuing
a multi-year trend, as larger corporations have had increased access to credit markets and are still holding significant
amounts of cash and have focused on acquisitions as part of future growth plans. Private equity funds were able to raise a
record amount of funds in 2017 at $453 billion, increasing their assets under management to over $1 trillion. However, the
abundance of capital has also put upward pressure on asset prices and has constrained expected yields. (Source: <I>Prequin</I>).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">We are subject to financial market risks,
including changes in interest rates with respect to investments in debt securities and outstanding debt payable, as well as changes
in marketable equity security prices. In the future, we may invest in companies outside the United States, including in Europe
and Asia, which would give rise to exposure to foreign currency value fluctuations. We do not use derivative financial instruments
to mitigate any of these risks. The return on investments is generally not affected by foreign currency fluctuations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">Our investments in portfolio securities
consist of some fixed-rate debt securities. Since the debt securities are generally priced at a fixed rate, changes in interest
rates do not directly affect interest income. In addition, changes in market interest rates are not typically a significant factor
in the determination of fair value of these debt securities, since the securities are generally held to maturity. We determine
their fair values based on the terms of the relevant debt security and the financial condition of the issuer.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">A major portion of our investment portfolio
consists of debt and equity investments in private companies. Modest changes in public market equity prices generally do not significantly
impact the estimated fair value of these investments. However, significant changes in market equity prices can have a longer-term
effect on valuations of private companies, which could affect the carrying value and the amount and timing of gains or losses
realized on these investments. A small portion of the investment portfolio could also consist of common stock in publicly traded
companies. These investments are directly exposed to equity price risk, in that a hypothetical ten percent change in these equity
prices would result in a similar percentage change in the fair value of these securities.</P>

other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Fund in the reports that we file
or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC&rsquo;s
rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer

of the Fund&rsquo;s &ldquo;disclosure controls and procedures&rdquo; (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) as of March 31, 2018. Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded
that the Fund&rsquo;s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level. There has been no change
in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2018, that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/normal Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 24.5pt"><B>Shareholder
Complaint</B>&mdash;On November 16, 2016, Samuel Zalmanoff filed a lawsuit against the Fund and members of the Board
of Directors in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware. The lawsuit was filed in connection with the Fund&rsquo;s
2016 Equity Incentive Plan (&ldquo;Incentive Plan&rdquo;) which was adopted by the Board of Directors on April 15, 2016,
approved by the Equus shareholders on June 13, 2016, and approved, with certain standard exceptions, by the Securities and
Exchange Commission on January 10, 2017. Mr. Zalmanoff&rsquo;s complaint, which purports to be on behalf of all non-affiliate
Equus shareholders entitled to vote for the Incentive Plan, purports to allege a breach by the Board of Directors of its
fiduciary duties of disclosure in connection with the Incentive Plan, and seeks an order from the court: (i) enjoining
implementation of the Incentive Plan, (ii) requiring the Fund to revise its disclosures relating to the Incentive Plan, and
(iii) for an award of costs, attorneys&rsquo; fees, and expenses. We believe that this lawsuit, and the allegations included
therein,  are without merit and intend to continue a vigorous defense  against the same. On September 22, 2017, we filed a
motion for summary judgment regarding this action. The plaintiff has not yet filed an opposition to our motion and a hearing
on the motion has not been set by the court.</P>

Equus into an operating company in furtherance of our Plan of Reorganization, we may be subject to a number of risks associated
with this process, the transactions that would embody a Consolidation of Equus with another company, as well as specific risks
associated with the commercial enterprise with which Equus would seek to combine itself. We intend to identify, as will be reasonably
possible, such risks and include the same in our subsequent filings and reports with the Commission.</P>
