Explanation of Responses:
Remarks:
Immediately prior to February 14, 2014, Hottinger Capital Corp ("HCC") owned 121,047 shares of SWZ common stock, 1,825 of which it received on January 24, 2014 in consideration for the payment of SWZ's previously-announced year-end distribution. The shares of SWZ owned by HCC were tendered in SWZ's cash tender offer for up to 4,579,480 of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock, which expired at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 11, 2014 (the "Offer"). As the total number of shares tendered by SWZ's stockholders in the Offer exceeded the number of shares SWZ offered to purchase, SWZ purchased its shares from tendering stockholders on a pro-rated basis pursuant to the terms of the Offer. HCC had 22,348 shares accepted by SWZ for purchase in the Offer, at a price of $14.93 per share (95% of SWZ's net asset value per share as of the close of regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange on February 12, 2014).
