3. Management Fees, Incentive Fees and Other Expenses

On November 30, 2020, the Company entered into an investment management agreement with the Advisor (the “Investment Management Agreement”). Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Advisor, for its service to the Company, is entitled to receive a management fee from the Company and an incentive fee. The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 0.90% of the Company’s total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) and payable quarterly in arrears. For the period from the date the Company first issued shares of common stock to one or more investors (other than the Advisor and its affiliates) through the end of the first calendar quarter, no management fee was payable. Subsequently, the management fee is calculated based on the value of the Company’s total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. The management fees for any partial quarter are appropriately prorated.

The incentive fee is only incurred to the extent the Company’s cumulative total return (after the incentive fee) exceeds a 6% annual rate on daily weighted-average unreturned capital contributions. Subject to that limitation, the incentive fee is calculated on net investment income (before incentive fee) and net realized gains (net of any unrealized depreciation) at a rate of 12.5%. The incentive fee is computed as the difference between the incentive fee earned and incentive fee paid, subject to the total return hurdle, on a cumulative basis, and is payable quarterly in arrears. As of September 30, 2026, the Company’s cumulative performance did not exceed the total return hurdle and, as a result, no incentive compensation was accrued for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2025 the Company’s cumulative performance did not exceed the total return hurdle, and as such, no incentive compensation was accrued for the three months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, $0.4 million out of the potential $2.3 million incentive fees was earned.

There were no incentive fees on capital gains accrued on a hypothetical liquidation basis (but not payable) under GAAP for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. There can be no assurance that unrealized capital appreciation and depreciation will be realized in the future, or that any accrued capital gains incentive fee will become payable under the Investment Management Agreement. Incentive fee amounts on capital gains actually paid by the Company will specifically exclude consideration of unrealized capital appreciation, consistent with requirements under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”) and the Investment Management Agreement.

The Company bears all expenses incurred in connection with its business, including fees and expenses of outside contracted services, such as custodian, administrative, legal, audit and tax preparation fees, costs of valuing investments, insurance costs, brokers’ and finders’ fees relating to investments, and any other transaction costs associated with the purchase and sale of investments.
