Average Annual Total Returns (as of June 30, 2026)

 

   1 Month   Quarter   6 Month   1 Year   3 Year   5 Year   Since

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. – NAV   -1.56%   -1.13%   1.71%   2.68%   5.76%   5.77%   5.82%

The performance data quoted above represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investment return and value of the Fund shares will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or repurchased, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance may be lower or higher than performance data quoted. Fund performance current to the most recent month-end is available by calling 1-844-943-5378 or by visiting www.yieldstreetalternativeincomefund.com.

 

*Fund’s inception date is March 9, 2020.

 

**The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index measures the investment grade, US dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market. The index includes Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, fixed-rate agency mortgage backed securities, asset backed securities, and commercial mortgage backed securities. The S&P U.S. High Yield Corporate Bond Index measures the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated, high-yield corporate bonds issued by companies whose country of risk uses official G-10 currencies, excluding those countries that are members of the United Nations Eastern European Group. Qualifying securities must have a below-investment-grade rating and maturities of one or more months. The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index and S&P U.S. High Yield Corporate Bond Index are not adjusted to reflect sales changes, expenses or other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The Indices are unmanaged and unlike the Fund, they are not affected by cash flow. It is not possible to invest directly in the Indices.

 

For illustrative purposes only. All figures represent past performance and are not indicative of future results. No investment strategy can guarantee performance results.

 

Total returns are based on changes in NAV. Returns reflect the deduction of all Fund expenses, including investment advisory fees, operating expenses, and other Fund expenses.

 

Total return assumes the reinvestment of all distributions.

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

 

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund commenced operations on March 9, 2020. The Fund’s shares are not publicly traded.

 

The Fund’s investment objective is to generate current income and, as a secondary objective, capital appreciation. The Fund intends to seek to achieve its investment objective by primarily investing in debt securities and other credit instruments across multiple sectors, either directly or through separate investment structures or vehicles that provide the Fund with exposure to such securities (“Credit Investments”). Such Credit Investments may include instruments directly or indirectly secured by real or personal property.

 

Willow Asset Management, LLC, formerly known as YieldStreet Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), serves as the investment adviser of the Fund pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”). The Adviser is a Delaware limited liability company that is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”). Prytania Investment Advisors LLP ("Prytania") serves as an investment sub-adviser for the Fund pursuant to an Investment Subadvisory Agreement (the "Subadvisory Agreement"). Prytania is a United Kingdom limited liability partnership that is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC pursuant to the Advisers Act.

 

The Adviser also serves as the Fund’s administrator (the “Administrator”), and in such capacity provides, or arranges for the provision of, the administration services necessary for the Fund to operate. The Adviser, in its capacity as the Fund’s administrator, expects to retain one or more sub-administrators from time to time to provide certain administrative services to the Fund on its behalf. ALPS Fund Services, Inc., together with certain affiliated entities (collectively, “AFS”), has been retained to serve as the Fund's sub-administrator (in such capacity, the “Sub-Administrator”) and to provide the Fund with certain administrative services on behalf of the Administrator.

 

The Fund has established wholly-owned subsidiaries, YP-HP-S JV Corp., YS PP REQ. II P LLC Southgate Apartments and YS PP REQ. I LLC Hines Park (the "Subsidiaries") which serve to hold equity or equity-like investments in partnerships. All intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation. The Fund consolidates its Subsidiaries for accounting purposes but the Subsidiaries are not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes and may incur U.S. federal income tax expense as a result.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies. The accounting policies are in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

 

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of income, expense and gains and losses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material.

 

Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, credit worthiness of the Fund’s portfolio and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.

 

Restricted Cash: Restricted cash is subject to legal or contractual restriction by third parties as well as a restriction to withdrawal or use, including restrictions that require the funds to be used for a specified purpose and restrictions that limit the purpose for which the funds can be used.

 

Fair Value Measurements: The Fund follows guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, where fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. Fair value should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not assumptions specific to the entity.

 

Fair value measurements are determined quarterly, monthly, or daily within a framework that establishes a three-tier hierarchy which classifies fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on the best information available.

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
  June 30, 2026 (Unaudited)

 

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value, as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.

 

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. The types of investments that would generally be included in this category include publicly traded securities with restrictions on disposition, and certain convertible securities; and

 

Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. Fair value for these investments is determined using valuation methodologies that consider 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, valuations for comparable companies, current and projected operating performance and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant judgment. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, these values may differ materially from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed. Investments that are included in this category generally are privately held debt, equity, and certain convertible securities.

 

The availability of observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the investment. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of estimating fair value, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than if the fair value was determined using observable inputs. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

 

An investment level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level input, individually or in the aggregate, that is significant to fair value measurement. The valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value during the period ended June 30, 2026 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.

 

Investment Valuation: The Board of Directors has approved valuation policies and procedures that provide a framework for determining the fair value of Investments in compliance with U.S. GAAP, the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder. The Board of Directors has designated the Adviser as its “valuation designee” pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, and in that role the Adviser is responsible for performing fair value determinations relating to Investments, including periodically assessing and managing any material valuation risks and establishing and applying fair value methodologies, in accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board of Directors. The Adviser provides the Board of Directors with periodic reports on a quarterly basis or, more frequently if necessary, describing the valuation process applicable to that period. The Board of Directors ultimately is responsible for fair value determinations under the 1940 Act and satisfies its responsibility through its oversight of the valuation designee in accordance with Rule 2a-5.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis for financial reporting purposes and amounts payable or receivable for trades not settled as of period end are reflected as liabilities and assets, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Operations are recorded on a trade date basis. Cost is determined by the specific identification method. Interest is recorded on an accrual basis and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest and/or dividends in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest/dividend cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest/dividend cash payments will be collected. Such non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest or dividends are paid in cash, and in management's judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining interest or dividend obligations. Interest or dividend cash payments received on non-accrual designated investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment.

 

Payment-In-Kind Income: Some of the Fund’s loans may have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Fund capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK income generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. Upon capitalization, PIK income is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. The Fund places investments on non-accrual status when principal or interest/dividend is not expected to be paid.

 

Expense Recognition: Expenses include investment advisory fees and may include professional fees, including but not limited to insurance expenses, legal fees, directors’ fees, audit and tax service expenses and other general and administrative expenses. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.

 

Other Income: Loan origination fees, original issue discount (“OID”), and market discounts are capitalized and accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans using the effective interest method or straight-line, as applicable. Upon the prepayment of a loan, prepayment premiums, any unamortized loan origination fees, OID, or market discounts are recorded as interest income. In addition, exit fees and prepayment fees are also included in other income and are recorded when earned.

Distributions: Distributions to common shareholders, which are determined in accordance with the Plan of Distribution set forth in the Fund’s prospectus and with federal income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Board of Directors expects to authorize, and the Fund intends to declare and pay ordinary cash distributions on a quarterly basis. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually.

 

Federal Income Taxes: The Fund has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a RIC, the Fund generally will not have to pay Fund-level federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that the Fund distributes to shareholders from the Fund’s tax earnings and profits.

 

In order to continue to qualify for RIC tax treatment, among other things, the Fund is required to distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income and intends to distribute all of the Fund’s investment company taxable income and net capital gains to common shareholders. The character of income and gains that the Fund will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from U.S. GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.

 

The Fund follows ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Penalties or interest, if applicable, that may be assessed relating to income taxes would be classified as other operating expenses in the financial statements. As of June 30, 2026, there were no uncertain tax positions and no amounts accrued for interest or penalties. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Although the Fund files both federal and state income tax returns, the Fund’s major tax jurisdiction is federal. The Fund’s tax returns for each tax year since 2022 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

 

Segment Evaluation: The Fund uses the management approach to determine reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Fund’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for making decisions, allocating resources, and assessing performance. The Fund’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Treasurer, who reviews consolidated results presented within the Fund’s consolidated financial statements when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Fund. The CODM determined that the Fund has only one operating segment as defined by ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This is supported by the single investment strategy of the Fund, against which the CODM assesses performance.

(1)The weighted average is calculated by multiplying the unobservable input by the weight of each investment over the sum of the fair value of the underlying investments.

 

The yield analysis technique is an analysis whereby expected cash flows of the loan are discounted to determine a present value using internal rate of return. Significant increases or decreases in the internal rate of return would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value measurement.

 

The estimated recovery rate (“ERR”) is the rate the Fund is expected to recover of the investment at the conclusion of the recovery management process. This rate is based on an asset specific valuation framework that can utilize fair value of collateral, comparable transactions, discount cash flow analysis, and/or contingency based events.

 

The Net Asset Value (“NAV”) is determined using the reported net asset value per share of the investee fund, or its equivalent (“NAV”), as a practical expedient for fair value if the reported NAV of the investee fund is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles applied to investment companies. In order to use the practical expedient, the Adviser has internal processes to independently evaluate the fair value measurement process utilized by the underlying investee fund to calculate the investee fund's NAV. Such internal processes include the evaluation of the investee fund’s policies and related internal controls in place to estimate the fair value of its underlying investments that are included in the NAV calculation, performing ongoing operational due diligence, review of the investee fund’s audited financial statements and ongoing monitoring of other relevant qualitative and quantitative factors. If the Adviser determines, based on its own due diligence and investment monitoring procedures, that the reporting NAV of an investee fund does not represent fair value, the Adviser shall estimate the fair value in good faith and as determined under U.S. GAAP and approved policies and procedures.

 

Bonds, collateralized loan obligations, and other quoted investments that are not exchange-traded or traded on an OTC marketplace are generally valued based on the last reliable “bid” quotation available as of the measurement date. The Fund regularly reviews bond prices on its service provider, ICE, for these quotes.

For recent transaction technique, generally, new private investments purchased within 45 business days before the valuation date are not reviewed by an independent third-party valuation firm. These investments are held at purchase price initially unless such valuation, in the judgment of the Adviser’s Valuation Committee, does not represent fair value. These investments are generally transitioned to an independent third-party valuation firm to assist the Adviser’s Valuation Committee in determining the application of a valuation methodology at the next valuation date. The Adviser’s Valuation Committee will convene if there has been a material change to the underlying company, industry or market between the time of investment and the valuation date.

 

Investment Transactions: Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term obligations, for the period ended June 30, 2026, were as follows:

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Investment Advisory: Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to a management fee (the “Adviser Management Fee”). The Adviser Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average of the Fund’s net assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. The Adviser Management Fee is payable quarterly in arrears. Adviser Management Fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately prorated and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the relevant month or quarter. The Fund incurred expenses in the amount of $579,952 for investment advisory fees in the Consolidated Statement of Operations during the period ended June 30, 2026.

 

Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to pay Prytania a sub-advisory fee for investment advisory and management services (the “Sub-Advisory Management Fee”). The Sub-Advisory Management Fee is paid directly by the Adviser out of its Adviser Management Fee.

 

Administration: The Fund has also entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with the Adviser under which the Adviser, among other things, provides (or oversees, or arranges for, the provision of) the administrative services and facilities necessary for the Fund to operate.

 

The Administrator expects to retain one or more sub-administrators from time to time to provide certain administrative services to the Fund on behalf of the Administrator. AFS has been retained to serve as our Sub-Administrator and to provide us with certain administrative services on behalf of the Administrator. For their services as Sub-Administrator, the Fund pays a registered fund services fee to AFS which is calculated as the greater of a minimum fee or fees based on the annual net assets of the Company (with such minimum fees subject to an annual cost of living adjustment), plus out of pocket expenses. AFS (including through its affiliate SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions, Inc.) has also been retained to provide certain transfer agency and other services to the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, for which it receives separate compensation from the Company and/or its subsidiaries.

 

The Fund will bear all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Fund’s operation, administration and transactions that are not specifically assumed by the Administrator (or the Adviser, if not the Administrator), including the cost of any sub-administrator. Effective July 1, 2024, for providing these facilities and services the Fund has agreed to pay to the Administrator a fee equal to 0.0375% of the Fund’s net assets attributable to common shares, determined as of the end of each calendar quarter (0.15% annualized); provided, that the aggregate amount of such fee plus the amount of the registered fund services fee paid by the Fund to AFS as the sub-administrator (which for the avoidance of doubt does not include any other fees, costs or expenses payable by the Fund or any subsidiary thereof to AFS for other services) shall on an annual basis be no more than 0.35% of the Fund’s average net assets attributable to common shares. In addition, we will reimburse the Administrator (or such affiliate) for any fees, costs or expenses that are paid by the Administrator (or an affiliate thereof) on our behalf.

Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, effective July 1, 2024 the Administrator has agreed to waive the fees, costs and expenses payable to it by the Fund pursuant to the Administration Agreement and to pay or absorb expenses of the Fund so that its total annual expenses (excluding (i) interest payable on debt, (ii) federal, state, local and foreign taxes, (iii) acquired fund fees and expenses, (iv) extraordinary expenses, (v) management fees payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, (vi) the administrative fee payable pursuant to the Administration Agreement and (vii) the registered fund services fee payable to AFS) will not exceed 1.50% of the average net assets attributable to our common shares on an annual basis (the “Expense Limitation”). With respect to any amounts waived or absorbed by the Administrator pursuant to the Expense Limitation, the Administrator is entitled to recoup such amounts for a period of up to three years from the date that such fees were waived or such costs or expenses were absorbed, provided that the Adviser is able to effect such recoupment without causing our total annual expenses (after recoupment) to exceed the lesser of (a) the expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver, and (b) any expense limitation in effect at the time of the recoupment.

 

Prior to July 1, 2024, under the Administration Agreement, in lieu of the administrative fee and expense limitation described above, the Fund agreed to reimburse the Administrator for the fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities to the Fund; provided, that the aggregate amount of fees, costs and expenses, including organizational and offering expenses, allowed to be reimbursed by the Fund to the Administrator were limited to no more than 0.125% (0.50% annualized) of the Fund’s net assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents), as determined at the end of such calendar quarter, taking into account any fees, costs and expenses paid directly by the Fund during such calendar quarter, but excluding non-administrative expenses incurred by the Fund, including but not limited to (i) interest payable on debt, (ii) federal, state, local and foreign taxes, and (iii) management fees payable to the Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement; provided that, for a period of three years from the date of a previous waiver of costs and expenses by the Administrator, any amounts not reimbursed with respect to a given calendar quarter remained subject to reimbursement in any subsequent calendar quarter, subject to compliance with the applicable expense reimbursement limitation for such subsequent calendar quarter (the “Prior Expense Arrangement”).

 

Amounts due from the Adviser consist of expense support repayments, management fees, routine non-compensation overhead, operating expenses, tax expenses and offering expenses paid on behalf of the Fund. All balances due from the Adviser are settled quarterly. Pursuant to the terms of the Prior Expense Arrangement, the Administrator paid and/or reimbursed Fund expenses totaling $5,091 during the period ended June 30, 2026, of which $5,091 remained subject to recoupment by the Adviser through 2029. Since inception, the Adviser reimbursed fund expenses exceeding the Expense Limitation totaling $11,044,238 of which $3,347,086 remained subject to recoupment by the Adviser. The Adviser recouped $32,327 of previously waived expenses in the fiscal period ended June 30, 2026.

 

As of June 30, 2026, the following amounts remained subject to recoupment by the Administrator based upon their potential expiration dates:

 

2026   2,034,143 
2027   1,160,589 
2028   147,263

NOTE 6. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

 

On March 9, 2020, the Fund completed its initial closing (the “Initial Closing”), selling the minimum number of shares required pursuant to the initial offering, and raised approximately $15,380,000 in gross proceeds. Investors can generally subscribe into the Fund on a weekly basis on that day’s reported Net Asset Value (“NAV”).

 

At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on March 18, 2026, the Board of Directors determined to suspend the offering and sale of Fund shares while a proposed reorganization of the Fund was pending. See Note 15 below. The Fund’s shares are not currently listed on any securities exchange.

 

Prior to March 18, 2026, the Fund was offering up to 100 million shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“shares”), at the Net Asset Value per share. The shares were offered directly by the Fund, and the Fund did not retain an underwriter, dealer manager or broker dealer in connection with the offer and sale of the shares offered. The minimum permitted subscription amount was $20,000 of the shares, although the Fund had discretion to waive or increase or decrease this minimum permitted subscription amount from time to time.

NOTE 7. REPURCHASE PROGRAM

 

At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on March 18, 2026, the Board of Directors determined to suspend the Fund's share repurchase program while a proposed reorganization of the Fund was pending. See Note 15 below. Prior to such suspension, the Fund offered to repurchase shares on a quarterly basis on such terms as determined by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, unless, in the judgment of the Fund’s Board of Directors, such repurchases would not be in the Fund’s best interests or would violate applicable law. The Fund conducted such repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 14E and Rule 13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the 1940 Act. Any offer to repurchase shares was conducted solely through tender offer materials delivered to each shareholder.

 

The Fund limited the number of shares to be repurchased pursuant to its repurchase program in any calendar year to 20% of the number of shares outstanding, or 5% in each quarter, though the actual number of shares that the Fund offered to repurchase could be less. To the extent the Fund’s Board of Directors determined that it is appropriate to do so, the Fund had the flexibility to reduce the repurchase price in any quarter by up to 2% in order to offset the expenses it expected to incur in connection with conducting such repurchase offer. At the discretion of the Fund’s Board of Directors, the Fund was permitted to use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the sale of investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares. A certain amount of cash was permitted to be reserved for upcoming investments. The Fund offered to repurchase such shares at a price equal to the net asset value per share of the Fund’s common stock as of the close of business on the date each share repurchase offer expired.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors, in their discretion, had the flexibility to direct the Fund to undertake one or more tender offers outside of the Fund's share repurchase program (referred to as "special tender offers"). The timing and terms and conditions of any such special tender offers were left to the discretion of the Board of Directors, and there was no guarantee that the Fund would engage in any special tender offers. The Fund would generally expect to conduct only one tender offer in any given calendar quarter, and might refrain from conducting one under the Fund's share repurchase program to the extent the Board of Directors elected to conduct a special tender offer in any particular calendar quarter.

NOTE 9. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

 

The Fund entered into a Loan Guarantee and Security Agreement (“Line of Credit Agreement”) with Esquire Bank, National Association (“Bank”) to secure a revolving line of credit. Borrowings under the Line of Credit Agreement bear interest at the one month SOFR plus 200 basis points with a floor of 6.50%. For the period ended June 30, 2026, the Fund used the facility. In February 2026, the Fund repaid in full its outstanding balance under the Line of Credit Agreement and the line was subsequently closed. From the start of the period through February 13, 2026 (when the line was closed), the average amount of borrowings outstanding was $10,000,000. The average interest rate paid on these borrowings was 6.5%. Following February 13, 2026, the Fund had no borrowings outstanding. Under the Line of Credit Agreement, the Fund was required to maintain a bank asset coverage ratio equal to or greater than 300%. The bank asset coverage ratio is defined as (1) the sum of (x) the value of all portfolio investments and (y) the total amount of cash on deposit excluding the direct proceeds of any advances under the revolving bank line of credit, divided by (2) the total credit extensions under the line of credit. During the period ended June 30, 2026, the Fund remained in compliance with the Bank Asset Coverage Ratio.

Under the 1940 Act, the Fund is not permitted to incur indebtedness, including through the issuance of debt securities, unless immediately thereafter the Fund will have an asset coverage of at least 300%. In general, the term “asset coverage” for this purpose means the ratio which the value of the total assets of the Fund, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, bears to the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness of the Fund. In addition, the Fund may be limited in its ability to declare any cash distribution on its capital stock or purchase its capital stock unless, at the time of such declaration or purchase, the Fund has an asset coverage (on its indebtedness) of at least 200% after deducting the amount of such distribution or purchase price, as applicable. During the period ended June 30, 2026, the Fund remained in compliance with the asset coverage ratio requirements provided in the 1940 Act.

 

NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES

 

The Fund’s policy is to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net realized (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) gains to shareholders.

 

The Subsidiaries elected to be treated as C-Corporations for federal and state income tax purposes. State tax returns are filed in various states in which an economic presence exists. Current state taxes consist of income taxes, franchise taxes, business taxes, excise taxes or gross receipts taxes, depending on the state in which the returns are filed. Income taxes are charged based on apportioned income for each state.

 

In accordance with ASC 740, the Subsidiaries may recognize deferred income taxes for differences in the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, tax credit carryforwards or net operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and the rates on the date of enactment.

 

The Fund's semi-annual tax provision is calculated under the discrete method which treats the interim period as if it were the annual period and determines the income tax expense or benefit on that basis. The discrete method is applied when application of the estimated annual effective tax rate is impractical because it is not possible to reliably estimate the annual effective tax rate. The Fund believes, at this time, the use of this discrete method is more appropriate than the annual effective tax rate method due to the high degree of uncertainty in estimating annual pretax income.

 

Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which differ from U.S. GAAP, and, therefore, may differ significantly in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. The amounts and characteristics of tax basis distributions and composition of distributable earnings/(accumulated losses) are finalized at the Fund's fiscal year-end.

The tax character of the distributions paid by the Fund during the year ended December 31, 2025, was as follows:

 

2025    
Distributions Paid From:     
Ordinary income  $7,154,188 
Return of capital   1,773,453 
Total  $8,927,641 

 

Under current law, capital losses maintain their character as short-term or long-term and are carried forward to the next tax year without expiration. As of June 30, 2026, the following amounts are available as carry forwards to the next tax year:

 

Fund  Short Term   Long Term 
  $18,116   $3,564,332 

 

Capital loss carryovers used during the year ended December 31, 2025 were $977,384.

 

The amount of net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) and the cost of investment securities for tax purposes, including short-term securities at June 30, 2026, were as follows:

 

Cost of investments for income tax purposes  $121,596,537 
Gross appreciation (excess of value over tax cost)  $10,500,186 
Gross depreciation (excess of tax cost over value)   (5,918,503)
Net unrealized appreciation  $4,581,683 

 

The differences between book-basis and tax-basis are primarily due to the Fund’s investments in partnerships and defaulted securities.

The income tax expense (benefit) for the year ended December 31, 2025, consists of the following:

 

   December 31, 2025 
Current Expense     
Federal  $476,572 
State   130,957 
    607,529 
Deferred (Benefit)/Expense     
Federal   (772,271)
State   (264,242)
    (1,036,513)
Total Income Tax Benefit  $(428,984)

 

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the provision for (benefit from) income taxes differed from the statutory tax rate (21%) primarily due to adjustments to the Fund’s investments in partnerships and state income taxes.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has generated federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $3,053,542. Yearly utilization of the NOL carryforwards have certain tax limitations and do not expire. In addition, the Company has approximately $1,863,636 of state NOL carryovers.

 

NOTE 11. RISK FACTORS

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss may exist from things such as changes in the market (market risk) or failure or inability of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). See below for a detailed description of select principal risks.

 

Credit Risk: Credit risk is the risk that one or more fixed income securities in our portfolio will decline in price or fail to pay interest or principal when due as a result of a decline in the financial status of the issuer of the security. Credit risk is increased when a portfolio security is downgraded or the perceived creditworthiness of the issuer deteriorates. To the extent that the Fund invests in below investment grade securities, the Fund will be exposed to a greater amount of credit risk than a fund that only invests in investment grade securities. In addition, to the extent the Fund uses credit derivatives, such use will expose the Fund to additional risk in the event that the bonds underlying the derivatives default and/or the counterparty fails to perform. The degree of credit risk depends on the issuer's financial condition and on the terms of the securities.

 

Although the Fund expects to invest in investments that are directly or indirectly secured by collateral, the Fund may be exposed to losses resulting from default and foreclosure of any such investments in which the Fund has invested. Therefore, the value of underlying collateral, the creditworthiness of borrowers and the priority of liens are each of great importance in determining the value of the investments. No guarantee can be made regarding the adequacy of the protection of our security in the investments in which the Fund invests. Moreover, in the event of foreclosure or default, the Fund may assume direct ownership of any assets collateralizing such defaulted investments where we are the lender of record. The liquidation proceeds upon the sale of such assets may not satisfy the entire outstanding balance of principal and interest on such investments, resulting in a loss. Any costs or delays involved in the effectuation of processing foreclosures or liquidation of the assets collateralizing such investments will further reduce proceeds associated therewith and, consequently, increase possible losses. In addition, no assurances can be made that borrowers or third parties will not assert claims in connection with foreclosure proceedings or otherwise, or that such claims will not interfere with the enforcement of our rights.

Investing involves the possibility of the Fund's investments being subject to potential losses arising from material misrepresentation or omission on the part of borrowers or issuers whose investments the Fund holds, either directly or indirectly through participation agreements. The investments may also be subject to fraudulent behavior by an originator, a joint venture partner, manager or other service provider. Such inaccuracy or incompleteness of representations or fraudulent behavior may adversely affect the valuation of our investments and, in the case of investments, may adversely affect the ability of the relevant investment to perfect or effectuate a lien on the collateral securing the loan. The quality of the Fund's investments is subject to the accuracy of representations made by the underlying issuers. The Fund will rely upon the accuracy and completeness of representations made by borrowers, issuers, originators, other counterparties, joint venture partners, managers and other service providers and cannot guarantee that the Fund will detect occurrences of fraud. Under certain circumstances, payments by borrowers or issuers to the Fund may be reclaimed if any such payment is later determined to have been a fraudulent conveyance or a preferential distribution.

 

Concentration Risk: To the extent that the Fund portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class, the Fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more vulnerable to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class.

 

Debt Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in debt securities, the value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of debt securities. In general, the market price of debt securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default) and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

 

Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the value of financial instruments. The Fund may be exposed to risks associated with the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its financial position and cash flows. The Fund may be exposed to interest rate risk as a result of mismatches or gaps in the amounts of assets and liabilities that mature or reprice in a given period.

 

Investment Strategy and Asset Class Risks: The Fund pursues an opportunistic investment strategy that may include exposure to a wide range of asset classes, including but not limited to real estate equity, real estate debt, private credit, and litigation finance. Each of these asset classes is subject to significant risks that may differ materially from those associated with traditional securities investments. Such risks may include illiquidity, valuation uncertainty, market volatility, sensitivity to interest rates and credit conditions, counterparty risk, and heightened regulatory, legal, or operational risks. In addition, these investments may be concentrated, highly speculative, and dependent on factors outside the Fund's control, such as macroeconomic trends, judicial outcomes, and the availability of financing. There can be no assurance that any of these investments will perform as expected, that the Fund will be able to realize valuations at targeted levels, or that investors will not lose some or all of their invested capital.

Liquidity Risk: The Fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the Fund may have to sell them at a loss.

 

Market Risk: Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.

 

Money Market Fund Risk: The Fund may invest in underlying money market funds that either seek to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value (“stable share price money market funds”) or that have a share price that fluctuates (“variable share price money market funds”). Although an underlying stable share price money market fund seeks to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value, it is possible to lose money by investing in such a money market fund. Because the share price of an underlying variable share price money market fund will fluctuate, when a fund sells the shares it owns they may be worth more or less than what the fund originally paid for them. In addition, neither type of money market fund is designed to offer capital appreciation. Certain underlying money market funds may impose a fee upon the sale of shares or may temporarily suspend the ability to sell shares if such fund's liquidity falls below required minimums.

 

Prepayment and Extension Risk: Certain fixed-income securities are subject to the risk that the securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected, especially during periods of falling or rising interest rates, respectively. Prepayments of obligations could cause the Fund to forgo future interest income on the portion of the security's principal repaid early and force the Fund to reinvest that money at the lower prevailing interest rates. Extensions of obligations could cause the Fund to exhibit additional volatility and hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest. Either case could hurt the Fund's performance.

 

Secured Loan Risk: Secured loans hold the most senior position in the capital structure of a borrower. Secured loans in most circumstances are fully collateralized by assets of the borrower. Thus, secured loans are generally repaid before unsecured bank loans, corporate bonds, subordinated debt, trade creditors, and preferred or common shareholders. Substantial increases in interest rates may cause an increase in loan defaults as borrowers may lack resources to meet higher debt service requirements. The value of the Fund’s assets may also be affected by other uncertainties such as economic developments affecting the market for senior secured term loans or affecting borrowers generally. Moreover, the security for the Fund’s investments in secured loans may not be recognized for a variety of reasons, including the failure to make required filings by lenders, directors or other responsible parties and, as a result, the Fund may not have priority over other creditors as anticipated.

Secured loans may include restrictive covenants, which must be maintained by the borrower. The Fund may have an obligation with respect to certain senior secured term loan investments to make additional loans upon demand by the borrower. In general, loans unlike certain bonds, usually do not have call protection. This means that such interests, while having a stated term, may be prepaid, often without penalty. The rate of such prepayments may be affected by, among other things, general business and economic conditions, as well as the financial status of the borrower. Prepayment would cause the actual duration of a senior loan to be shorter than its stated maturity.

 

Secured loans typically will be secured by pledges of collateral from the borrower in the form of tangible and intangible assets. In some instances, the Fund may invest in secured debt that is secured only by stock of the borrower or its subsidiaries or affiliates. The value of the collateral may decline below the principal amount of the senior secured term loans subsequent to an investment by the Fund.

 

Reliance on Third-Parties and FDIC-Insured Banks to Process Transactions. The Fund relies on third-party and FDIC-insured depository institutions to process its transactions, including payments on investments and distributions to investors. If its third-party vendor and/or FDIC-insured bank that processes transactions, were no longer able to do so for any reason, the Fund would be required to transition such services. In such event, the Fund could experience significant delay in its ability to process payments timely and the investors' ability to receive distributions on the Interests will be delayed or impaired. Such events have occurred in the past and may occur again in the future.

 

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Fund may enter into certain credit agreements, all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Fund is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrowers’ discretion. Unfunded commitments and funded portions of credit agreements are marked-to-market. At June 30, 2026, the Fund had unfunded commitments shown below:

NOTE 14. INDEMNIFICATIONS

 

Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its Officers and Directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with service providers that may contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under those arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

 

NOTE 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On March 18, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Fund approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization providing for (i) the transfer of all of the Assets (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement) of the Fund (also referred to as the "Acquired Fund") to the Opportunistic Credit Interval Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”) in exchange for Consideration (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement) which shall be comprised of newly issued Class I common shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Fund, no par value (the “Acquiring Fund Shares”), (ii) the assumption of all Assumed Liabilities (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement) of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund, and (iii) the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the Acquired Fund Shareholders (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement) as part of the complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund (the “Reorganization”), subject to approval by the Fund’s shareholders and the satisfaction of certain other conditions.

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. Distribution Reinvestment Policy
  June 30, 2026 (Unaudited)

 

Distribution Reinvestment Policy. The Fund has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan administered by DST Systems, Inc. (“Transfer Agent”), pursuant to which Fund shareholders may elect to have the full amount of their cash distributions (either income dividends or capital gains or other distributions (each, a “Distribution” and collectively, “Distributions”), net of any applicable U.S. withholding tax, reinvested in additional shares of the same class. The Board of Directors adopted an amended and restated DRP on February 19, 2021.

 

The Fund has adopted an “opt out” distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which the full amount of each new stockholder’s cash distributions will be reinvested in additional shares unless you opt out of the plan by delivering a written notice to our reinvestment agent. If your shares are held by a broker or other financial intermediary and you wish to opt out of the plan, you should notify your broker or other financial intermediary. Current stockholders will not participate in the plan unless you have previously enrolled in, or if previously opted out, enroll in, the distribution reinvestment plan. Any distributions of our shares pursuant to the Fund's distribution reinvestment plan are dependent on the continued registration of our securities or the availability of an exemption from registration in the recipient’s home state. Participants in the Fund's distribution reinvestment plan are free to revoke their participation in the distribution plan within a reasonable time as specified in the plan. If you elect to no longer participate in the plan you will receive any distributions the Fund declares in cash. If our Board of Directors authorizes, and the Fund declares, a cash distribution, and you have not opted out of the plan, then you will have your cash distributions reinvested in additional shares, rather than receiving the cash distributions. During this offering, the Fund generally intends to coordinate distribution payment dates so that the same price that is used for the closing date immediately following such distribution payment date will be used to calculate the purchase price for purchasers under the distribution reinvestment plan. In such case, your reinvested distributions will purchase shares at a price equal to 100% of the price that shares are sold in the offering at the closing immediately following the distribution payment date. Shares issued pursuant to the Fund's distribution reinvestment plan will have the same voting rights as the Fund's shares offered pursuant to this prospectus. No commissions or fees will be assessed pursuant to the Fund's distribution reinvestment plan. You will be subject to income tax on the amount of any dividends you receive, even if you participate in the Fund's distribution reinvestment plan and do not receive such dividends in the form of cash.

 

If you wish to receive your distribution in cash, you must deliver a written notice to the Fund's reinvestment agent. If you are a registered stockholder, you will automatically have your entire distribution reinvested in shares and the reinvestment agent will set up an account for shares you acquire through the plan and will hold such shares in non-certificated form.

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. Distribution Reinvestment Policy
  June 30, 2026 (Unaudited)

 

The Fund intends to use newly issued shares to implement the plan and determine the number of shares the Fund issue to you as follows:

 

To the extent the Fund’s shares are not listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on an over-the-counter market or a national market system (collectively, an “Exchange”):

 

oduring any period when the Fund is making a “best-efforts” public offering of the Fund’s shares, the number of shares to be issued to you shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to you by a price equal to 100% of the price that the shares are sold in the offering at the closing immediately following the distribution payment date; and

 

oduring any period when the Fund is not making a “best-efforts” offering of the Fund’s shares, the number of shares to be issued to you shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to you by a price equal to the net asset value as determined by our Board of Directors.

 

To the extent the Fund’s shares are listed on an Exchange, the number of shares to be issued to you shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to you by the market price per share of our shares at the close of regular trading on such Exchange on the valuation date fixed by the Board of Directors for such distribution.

 

There will be no sales charges to you if you elect to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan. The Fund will pay the reinvestment agent’s fees under the plan.

 

If you receive your ordinary cash distributions in the form of shares, you generally are subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as you would be had you elected to receive your distributions in cash. Your basis for determining gain or loss upon the sale of shares received in a distribution from us will be equal to the total dollar amount of the distribution payable in cash. Any shares received in a distribution will have a holding period for tax purposes commencing on the day following the day on which the shares are credited to your account.

 

The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or terminate the distribution reinvestment plan. The Fund may terminate the plan upon notice delivered to you at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any distribution by us. You may terminate your participation in the plan from within the YieldStreet Portal.

 

The Fund has filed the complete form of our distribution reinvestment plan with the SEC as an exhibit to the Fund’s registration statement.

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements
  June 30, 2026 (Unaudited)

 

Board Consideration and Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

 

On May 27, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Yieldstreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”), including the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Fund (the “Independent Directors”) as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), met (with the Independent Directors present together and in person) (the “Meeting”) to discuss, among other things, the continuance of each of (i) the investment advisory agreement between Willow Asset Management LLC (the “Adviser”) and the Fund (the “Advisory Agreement”) and (ii) the investment sub-advisory agreement between the Adviser and Prytania Investment Advisors LLP (“Prytania” or the “Sub-Adviser”) on behalf of the Fund (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement” and, collectively with the Advisory Agreement, the “Agreements”).

 

In advance of the Meeting, the Board requested and received from the Adviser and Sub-Adviser information about the Fund, the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and the Agreements, certain portions of which are discussed below. Prior to their approvals, the Independent Directors had the opportunity to review the materials provided and met privately without representatives of the Adviser present. The Board also received a memorandum from Fund counsel discussing the legal standards under the 1940 Act and other applicable law for their consideration of the proposed approval of each Agreement.

 

In assessing each Agreement, the Directors evaluated and weighed several considerations that they believed to be relevant in light of the legal advice furnished to them by Fund counsel and made a decision in the exercise of their own business judgment. They considered a variety of factors, including those discussed below. In their deliberations, the Board and the Independent Directors did not identify any particular factor that was controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The summaries below do not identify all the matters considered by the Board but provide a summary of the principal matters the Board considered.

 

Following its review and consideration, the Board, including the Independent Directors, determined that the terms of each Agreement were reasonable and that the approval of such Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Board, including all the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the continuance each Agreement for an additional one-year term through May 31, 2027 (or such shorter period as applicable in light of the pending reorganization of the Company).

 

Consideration and Approval of Continuation of Investment Advisory Agreement

 

Materials Reviewed and the Review Process:

 

Prior to approving the continuation of the Fund’s existing Advisory Agreement, the Independent Directors had requested and had been provided with detailed materials relating to the Fund, the Adviser, and the Advisory Agreement. The materials, among other things, included information about the Adviser’s business and operations; information regarding the background and experience of relevant personnel providing services to the Fund; information about the advisory, administrative and other material services rendered by the Adviser or its affiliates to the Fund, including information about the Adviser’s portfolio management process; information comparing the investment advisory fees, total expenses and performance of the Fund to those of a group of comparable funds; information relating to the profitability of the Adviser’s overall relationship with the Fund; and information about the Adviser’s policies and procedures, including its overall program for compliance and risk management; and information related to the Adviser’s engagement and oversight of third party service providers, including but not limited to Prytania, who serves as Sub-Adviser with respect to a portion of the Fund’s overall portfolio.

YieldStreet Alternative Income Fund Inc. Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements
  June 30, 2026 (Unaudited)

 

Factors Considered:

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services: The Directors received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund under the existing Advisory Agreement. The Directors reviewed and considered the research and decision-making processes utilized by the Adviser, including the methods adopted to seek to achieve the Fund’s investment objectives in a manner consistent with the Fund’s policies and restrictions. The Directors considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s personnel, including the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the key investment personnel responsible for servicing the Fund. The Directors considered, among other things, information provided to the Board with respect to the Adviser’s business, leadership and financial condition, the level of commitment to the Fund by the Adviser and its principals, the various investment strategies employed by the Adviser in the Fund’s portfolio and portfolio risk management process. in addition, the Board considered the Adviser’s general oversight responsibilities with respect to the Fund, including its role in overseeing Prytania, which manages a portion of the Fund’s overall portfolio.

 

The Board also considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser in the coming months in light of the proposed reorganization of the Fund into a third-party fund, the Opportunistic Credit Interval Fund, and the Adviser’s representations regarding its commitment and capacity to continue to service the Fund in the event that such reorganization is not consummated.

 

The Board agreed that they were satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of services rendered, and to be rendered, by the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement. The Board also concluded that the services rendered, and to be rendered, by the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement were not duplicative of services rendered by the Adviser pursuant to the Administration Agreement between the Adviser and the Fund, nor were they duplicative of the services rendered by the Sub-Adviser pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser.

 

Performance: The Directors reviewed performance information for the Fund’s shares for the year-to-date, 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and since-inception periods through March 31, 2026 compared to the performance of comparable registered closed-end investment companies with investment mandates, structural features, and performance objectives comparable to the Fund (the “Peer Group”) over the same periods. The Directors noted that the Fund’s performance was within the range of the Peer Group, noting that the Fund had outperformed the Peer Group median for the year-to-date and 5-year periods, the Fund’s performance was in line with the Peer Group median for the three-year period, and the Fund’s performance trailed the median during the one-year and since inception periods. In considering the Fund’s performance compared to the Peer Group, the Board noted that given the limited universe of competitor funds, no group of peers or benchmark present a perfect comparison to the Fund, given that each potential peer fund has certain distinguishing characteristics with respect to structure, scale, life cycle, risk tolerance, objectives and strategies and other factors; however, the Board considered that the Peer Group was comprised of similar funds with investment mandates, structural features, and performance objectives most comparable to the Fund and determined the Peer Group, and the process for establishing such Peer Group, to be reasonable. The Directors also considered the Fund’s recent performance trajectory and the ability of the Adviser to evaluate and selectively invest in debt securities and other credit instruments that will help the Fund realize its stated investment objectives of generating income and preserving capital. After consideration of the recent and long-term investment performance of the Fund, the Adviser’s experience in managing the Fund, the quality of the Adviser’s investment personnel and other factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance of the Fund and the Adviser was consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies and therefore satisfactory.

Costs of Services and Profits to the Adviser: The Board considered the total expense ratio of the Fund and the management fees paid to the Adviser, noting that the Fund’s management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average net assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and acknowledging that the Adviser also receives quarterly administrative services fee equal to 0.0375% (0.15% annualized) of the Fund’s net assets attributable to common shares, subject to the expense limitation set forth in the Administration Agreement. The Board noted that because of this structure, to the extent that the Fund holds cash and/or cash equivalents, the actual management fee paid by the Fund would be lower than 1.00%. However, assuming full investment of the Fund’s assets and therefore a management fee of 1.00%, the Board observed that the Fund’s management fee was the second lowest among the funds in its Peer Group (third lowest if the administrative services fee paid to the Adviser were included in the management fee), notwithstanding that certain funds within the Peer Group were significantly larger than the Fund. The Board also noted that the Adviser does not collect performance-based fees in addition to the management fee, and that sub-advisory fees paid to Prytania pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement are paid by the Adviser out of its management fee and not separately borne by the Fund. The Board considered the portion of the management fee retained by the Adviser and not paid through to the Sub-Adviser and found such amount to be reasonable.

 

The Board also considered the Fund’s expense ratio compared to the expense ratios of its peers. The Board reviewed comparative expense data for the Fund and its Peer Group and observed that the Fund’s annual expense ratio was lower than five of the seven funds included in the Peer Group and was below the median and the mean for the Peer Group. The Board considered the Adviser’s profitability of the Fund to the Adviser. They considered that the Fund has been profitable to the Adviser, and that the Adviser started recouping certain waived fees and reimbursed expenses from the Fund. They also observed that that the Adviser has, over the life of the Fund, reimbursed a significant amount of expenses to the Fund.

 

After consideration of the foregoing, the Board found that the fees and expenses of the Fund, in light of the nature and quality of the services provided, amount of assets under management, costs associated with implementing and monitoring the Fund’s investment strategy and other factors, as well as the Adviser’s anticipated level of estimated profitability, were fair and reasonable.

Economies of Scale: The Board considered whether the Adviser’s fee reflects any such economies of scale in a manner that is fair and reasonable and beneficial for the Fund’s investors. The Board considered the Adviser’s efforts to create efficiencies and lower the costs of audit, valuation, and legal services to the Fund and noted that the Fund has not reached an asset size that would allow the Adviser to fully realize economies of scale. The Board also considered that given the nature of the Fund’s private credit and real estate investment strategies, there is limited opportunity for economies of scale in portfolio management because as assets increase, the work to source and underwrite private investments likewise increases. Following further discussion of the Fund’s asset levels, expectations for growth and level of fees, the Board determined that the Adviser’s fee was fair and reasonable when considering the Fund’s asset levels and economies of scale.

 

Other Benefits to the Adviser: The Directors reviewed and considered any incidental benefits derived or to be derived by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. They considered that the Fund has increased participation on the Adviser’s platform and objective of providing access to various alternative asset classes managed by the Adviser. The Directors also considered the ancillary benefit that the Adviser derives compensation in its role as administrator to the Fund, and the compensation to be received by the Adviser in exchange for access to books and records relating to the Adviser’s management of the Fund, should the proposed reorganization be approved by shareholders and consummated.

 

Conclusion:

 

Having requested and reviewed such information from the Adviser as the Board believed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Directors concluded that the compensation of the Adviser was appropriate under the Advisory Agreement and the continuance of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

 

Consideration and Approval of Continuation of Sub-Advisory Agreement

 

Materials Reviewed and the Review Process:

 

Prior to approving the continuation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Independent Directors had requested and had been provided with detailed materials relating to the Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The materials, among other things, included information about the Sub-Adviser’s business and financial condition; information regarding the background and experience of relevant personnel who would be providing services to the Fund; information about the advisory, administrative and any other material services proposed to be rendered by the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates to the Fund, including information about the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management process; details of the Sub-Adviser’s performance over time in comparison to relevant market data; information regarding the sub-advisory fees proposed to be paid to the Sub-Adviser and comparative information regarding sub-advisory fees paid by similar funds and accounts; information related to the anticipated profitability of the Sub-Adviser’s relationship with the Fund; and information about the Sub-Adviser’s policies and procedures, including its overall program for compliance and risk management. The Board also considered input from the Adviser in evaluating and recommending Prytania to continue to serve as a sub-adviser to the Fund.

Factors Considered:

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services: The Directors received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund under Sub-Advisory Agreement. They considered Prytania’s experience and reputation as a global structured credit specialist. The Directors considered Prytania’s proposed investment strategy of investing in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), U.S. asset-backed securities (“ABS”), commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) and one or more underlying business development companies in a manner consistent with the Fund’s policies and restrictions as well as Prytania’s investment and risk management processes.

 

The Directors considered the background and experience of the Sub-Adviser’s personnel, including the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the key investment personnel that would be responsible for managing the Sub-Adviser’s portion of the Fund’s portfolio. The Directors considered the presentations delivered by representatives of the Sub-Adviser at meetings throughout the prior year, during which such representatives reported on the sub-advised portion of the Fund’s portfolio. The Directors also considered the Adviser’s assessment of Prytania’s performance on behalf of the Fund and the Adviser’s recommendation to renew the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Directors also discussed the Sub-Adviser’s financial condition, noting no concerns regarding the firm’s continued viability.

 

The Board also considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Sub-Adviser in the coming months in light of the proposed reorganization of the Fund into a third-party fund, the Opportunistic Credit Interval Fund, and Sub-Adviser’s commitment to continuing to service the Fund through at least the term of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, or through the closing of the proposed reorganization, whichever is sooner.

 

The Board agreed that they were satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of services rendered by the Sub-Adviser under the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

 

Performance: The Directors considered Prytania’s performance record and considered Prytania’s performance with respect to the Fund in comparison to performance data relating to other funds and accounts managed by Prytania with similar asset class exposures to the strategy employed by Prytania within the Fund’s portfolio. The Directors considered such information in light of the expansion of the scope of Prytania’s mandate beyond CLO investments to a broader set of structured credit investments as directed by the Adviser, consistent with the Fund’s policies and restrictions as disclosed to investors. The Directors also considered the ability of the Sub-Adviser to evaluate and selectively make structured credit investments in line with the Fund’s investment objectives and portfolio restrictions and took into account the Adviser’s assessment of such ability. After consideration of Prytania’s recent and long-term investment performance of Prytania, Prytania’s experience in managing structured credit strategies, the experience of Prytania’s personnel and other factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance of Prytania was consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies and therefore satisfactory.

 

Costs of Services, Economies of Scale and Profits to the Adviser: The Board considered the proposed sub-advisory fee to be paid to Prytania. The Directors considered the representation from the Adviser that the Adviser had focused on negotiating a competitive fee structure for the Fund, and that the sub-advisory fee is paid by the Adviser out of its investment management fee and not be separately borne by the Fund. They noted that when Prytania was added as a sub-adviser to the Fund, the investment advisory fee paid to the Adviser was not increased. The Directors also considered comparative information provided with respect to fees and noted that Prytania’s proposed sub-advisory fee was generally similar to or lower than the fees charged by Prytania to other comparable funds and accounts.

The Directors concluded that the fees to be paid to Prytania by the Adviser are reasonable in light of the services performed for the Fund and anticipated economies of scale.

 

Other Benefits to the Sub-Adviser:

 

The Directors reviewed and considered any incidental benefits derived or to be derived by the Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. They considered Prytania’s expectation that the relationship can bring long-term growth to both parties, based on Prytania’s experience with longer term relationship funds that have developed in this manner.

 

Conclusion:

 

Having requested and reviewed such information from the Adviser and Sub-Adviser as the Board believed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Directors concluded that the compensation of the Sub-Adviser was appropriate under the Sub-Advisory Agreement and that the continuance of the Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
