Annualized Distribution Rate reflects May’s distribution annualized and divided by last reported NAV from April. Distributions are not guaranteed. Past performance does not predict future returns. Distributions have been and may in the future be funded through sources other than cash flow. We cannot guarantee that we will make distributions, and if we do we may fund such distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital, or offering proceeds, and although we generally expect to fund distributions from cash flow from operations, we have not established limits on the amounts we may pay from such sources. A return of capital (1) is a return of the original amount invested, (2) does not constitute earnings or profits and (3) will have the effect of reducing the basis such that when a shareholder sells its shares the sale may be subject to taxes even if the shares are sold for less than the original purchase price. Distributions may also be funded in significant part, directly or indirectly, from temporary waivers or expense reimbursements borne by the investment adviser or its affiliates, that may be subject to reimbursement to the investment adviser or its affiliates. The repayment of any amounts owed to our affiliates will reduce future distributions to which you would otherwise be entitled. Annualized Distribution Rate for other share classes are as follows: 10.09% for Class D.

Total Net Return is calculated as the change in NAV per share during the period, plus distributions per share (assuming dividends and distributions are reinvested) divided by the beginning NAV per share. All returns shown are derived from unaudited financial information and are net of all Fund expenses, including general and administrative expenses, transaction related expenses, management fees, and incentive fees, but exclude the impact of early repurchase deductions on the repurchase of shares that have been outstanding for less than one year. Past performance does not predict future returns. The returns have been prepared using unaudited data and valuations of the underlying investments in the Fund’s portfolio, which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for the Fund’s NAV. Valuations based upon unaudited reports from the underlying investments may be subject to later adjustments, may not correspond to realized value and may not accurately reflect the price at which assets could be liquidated.

This calculation includes all Direct Lending investments for which fair value is determined by the Valuation Designee and excludes quoted assets and ABL investments. LTV is calculated as the current total net debt through each respective loan tranche divided by the estimated enterprise value of the portfolio company.

Accordingly, the Fund makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information.

Amounts were derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial statements, have not been independently verified by the Fund, and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. Accordingly, the Fund makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information.
