Principal Business and Organization	Principal Business and Organization CNL Strategic Capital, LLC (the “Company”) is a limited liability company that primarily seeks to acquire and grow durable, middle-market U.S. businesses. The Company is externally managed by CNL Strategic Capital Management, LLC (the “Manager”) and sub-managed by Levine Leichtman Strategic Capital, LLC (the “Sub-Manager”). The Manager is responsible for the overall management of the Company’s activities and the Sub-Manager is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company’s assets. The Manager and the Sub-Manager are each registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Company conducts and intends to continue its operations so that the Company and each of its subsidiaries do not fall within, or are excluded from, the definition of an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The Company intends to target businesses that are highly cash flow generative, with annual revenues primarily between $15 million and $250 million and whose management teams seek an ownership stake in the company. The Company’s business strategy is to acquire controlling equity interests in combination with debt positions and in doing so, provide long-term capital appreciation and current income while protecting invested capital. The Company seeks to structure its investments with limited, if any, third-party senior leverage. The Company intends for a significant majority of its total assets to be comprised of long-term controlling equity interests and debt positions in the businesses it acquires. In addition, and to a lesser extent, the Company may acquire other debt and minority equity positions. The Company intends to acquire, directly or through syndication, various types of debt including secured and senior unsecured debt, notes and other instruments. The Company may also acquire minority equity interests as a standalone investment or as a co-investment in combination with other funds and partnerships managed by the Sub-Manager or its affiliates. The Company expects that these positions will comprise a minority of its total assets. The Company commenced its initial public offering of up to $1.1 billion of its limited liability company interests (“shares”) on March 7, 2018 (the “Initial Public Offering”), which included up to $100.0 million of shares being offered through its distribution reinvestment plan, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (the “Initial Registration Statement”). On November 1, 2021, the Company commenced a follow-on public offering of up to $1.1 billion of shares (the “Follow-On Public Offering”), which included up to $100.0 million of shares being offered through its distribution reinvestment plan, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Follow-On Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On November 1, 2024, the Company commenced a second follow-on public offering of up to $1.1 billion of shares (the “Second Follow-On Public Offering,” and together with the Initial Public Offering and the Follow-On Public Offering, the “Public Offerings”), which includes up to $100.0 million of shares being offered through its distribution reinvestment plan, and terminated the Follow-On Public Offering. Through the Second Follow-On Public Offering, the Company is offering, in any combination, four classes of shares: Class A shares, Class T shares, Class D shares and Class I shares (collectively, the “Non-founder shares”). There are differing selling fees and commissions and dealer manager fees for each share class. The Company also pays distribution and shareholder servicing fees, subject to certain limits, on the Class T and Class D shares sold in the Second Follow-On Public Offering (excluding sales pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan). See Note 7. “Capital Transactions” and Note 13. “Subsequent Events” for additional information related to the Public Offerings.
