(1)  Unless otherwise indicated, debt investments held by the SBLA JV are denominated in USD dollars and are income producing. All investments are pledged as collateral under a credit facility, unless otherwise indicated.
   
(2)  Unless otherwise indicated, loan contains a variable rate structure, and may be subject to an interest rate floor. Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR” or “S”), which generally resets periodically. For each loan, the SBLA JV has indicated the reference rate used (including any adjustments per the loan agreements), and provided the spread and interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2026.
   
(3)  The cost represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, as applicable, on debt investments using the effective interest method in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
   
(4)  Unless otherwise indicated, issuers of debt held by the SBLA JV are domiciled in the United States.
   
(5)  All investments are valued using unobservable inputs (Level 3), unless otherwise noted (see “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “Note 4 -Investments”).
   
(6)  Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion, although the investment may be subject to unused commitment fees. Negative cost and fair value result from the unfunded commitment being valued below par and/or unamortized fees, which are capitalized to the investment cost. As of March 31, 2026, the total unfunded loan commitment was approximately $14.2 million.
