(CORPORATE CAPITAL TRUST LOGO)
A Business Development Company

Maximum Offering of 209,000,000 Shares of Common Stock
 
Corporate Capital Trust, Inc. is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). We are managed by CNL Fund Advisors Company and KKR Asset Management LLC, both of which are registered as investment advisers with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. We also have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or a “RIC,” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
 
Our investment objective is to provide our shareholders with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation.
 
We are offering on a best efforts, continuous basis up to 209,000,000 shares of common stock at a current offering price of $11.10 per share. However, if our net asset value increases above our net proceeds per share as stated in this prospectus, we will sell our shares at a higher price as necessary to ensure that shares are not sold at a net price, after deduction of selling commissions and marketing support fees, that is below our net asset value per share. Also, if our net asset value per share declines below 97.5% of the public offering price, net of sales load, then, subject to certain conditions, we may suspend selling shares until the net asset value per share is greater than 97.5% of the public offering price, net of sales load. Accordingly, subscriptions for this offering will be for a specific dollar amount rather than a specified quantity of shares, which may result in subscribers receiving fractional shares rather than full share amounts.
 
There has been no public market for, or historical valuation of, our shares.  We commenced our continuous public offering of shares on April 4, 2011.  See  “Plan of Distribution.” We reserve the right to change our investment and operating policies without shareholder approval, except to the extent such approval is required by the 1940 Act.
 
An investment in our shares is not suitable for you if you might need access to the money you invest in the foreseeable future.
 
You will not have access to the money you invest for an indefinite period of time.
 
You will not be able to sell your shares regardless of how we perform.
 
Because you will be unable to sell your shares, you will be unable to reduce your exposure on any market downturn.
 
We do not intend to list our shares on any securities exchange during or for a significant time after the offering period, and we do not expect a secondary market in the shares to develop.
 
We have implemented a share repurchase program, but only a limited number of shares are eligible for repurchase. In addition, any such repurchases will be at an at least 10% discount to the current offering price in effect on the date of repurchase.
 
Significant portions of our distributions in previous years were not based on our investment performance, but were paid by our Advisor. Now we are obligated to repay our Advisor and these repayments will reduce the current and future distributions that you should otherwise receive from your investment.
 
We invest in securities that are rated below investment grade by rating agencies or that would be rated below investment grade if they were rated.  Below investment grade securities, which are often referred to as “junk,” have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. They may also be illiquid and difficult to value.
 
Investing in our common stock may be considered speculative and involves a high degree of risk, including the risk of a substantial loss of investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 15 to read about the risks you should consider before buying shares of our common stock.
 
Shares of our common stock are highly illiquid and appropriate only as a long-term investment. An investment in our common stock should be considered only by investors who can assess and bear the high degree of illiquidity and other substantial risks associated with such an investment.  See  ”Suitability Standards” and “Risk Factors.” Depending upon the terms and pricing of any additional offerings and the value of our investments, you may experience dilution in the book value and fair value of your shares.  See “Risk Factors – Risks related to an investment in our common stock – A shareholder’s interest in us will be diluted if we issue additional shares” on page 33 for more information.
 
This prospectus contains important information about us that a prospective investor should know before investing in our common stock. Please read this prospectus before investing and keep it for future reference. A statement of additional information, dated the same date as this prospectus and containing additional information about us, has been filed with the SEC. The statement of additional information is incorporated in its entirety into this prospectus by reference and its table of contents appears on page 112. We also file with the SEC annual, quarterly, and current reports, proxy statements, and other information regarding us. You may obtain a copy of any of these filings free of charge, make shareholder inquiries or request other information about us, by contacting us by mail at Shareholder Services, Corporate Capital Trust, Inc., 450 S. Orange Ave., Orlando, FL 32801, or by telephone at 866-650-0650. These documents are also available without charge at our website at www.corporatecapitaltrust.com. The SEC maintains a web site ( www.sec.gov) that contains the statement of additional information and other information regarding us.

(1)
Assumes all shares are sold at the offering price of $11.10 per share (as of October 29, 2013), which is subject to adjustment based upon, among other things, our net asset value per share. There can be no assurance we will be able to sell all the shares we have registered.
(2)
Your initial subscription amount must be at least $5,000 (or $4,000 for qualified plans).
(3)
The sales load includes up to 7% of the offering price for sales commissions, and up to 3% of the offering price for marketing support fees, neither of which will be paid by you for shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. The “marketing support fee” refers to the portion of the sales load available to participating broker-dealers for assistance in selling and marketing our shares.
(4)
In addition to the sales load, we estimate that we will incur in connection with this offering approximately $22.2 million of additional offering expenses through an assumed offering termination date of November 1, 2016. Accordingly, the offering expense reimbursement rate is expected to be 1.0% of maximum gross proceeds.
 
Because you will pay a sales load of up to 10% and offering expenses of up to 1.0% of the public offering price, if you invest $100 in our shares and pay the full sales load, at least $89.00 but less than $90.00 of your investment will actually be available to us for investment purposes.  As a result, based on the current public offering price of $11.10, you would have to experience an overall total return on your investment of between 11.1% and 12.4% in order to recover the maximum sales load and expected offering expenses.  See “Use of Proceeds” on page 64.
 
Neither the SEC, the Attorney General of the State of New York nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.  An investment in our shares is NOT a bank deposit and is NOT insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

  This prospectus is part of a registration statement we have filed with the SEC, in connection with a continuous offering process, to raise capital for us. In connection with that continuous offering process, we commenced our initial public offering on April 4, 2011.  This follow-on public offering commenced upon the initial effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is part.  Except where the context suggests otherwise, references in this prospectus to “the offering” or “this offering” mean this follow-on public offering. As we make material investments or have other material developments, we will periodically provide a prospectus supplement or may amend this prospectus to add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. We will seek to avoid interruptions in the continuous offering of our common stock, but may, to the extent permitted or required under the rules and regulations of the SEC, supplement the prospectus or file an amendment to the registration statement with the SEC if our net asset value per share: (i) declines more than 10% from the net asset value per share as of the effective date of this registration statement or (ii) increases to an amount that is greater than the net proceeds per share as stated in the prospectus. However, there can be no assurance that our continuous offering will not be interrupted during the SEC’s review of any such registration statement amendment.
 
  In addition, if the net asset value per share were to decline below 97.5% of the public offering price, net of sales load, for ten continuous business days (for this purpose, any day on which the principal stock markets in the United States are open for business), then, unless and until our board of directors determines otherwise, we will voluntarily suspend selling shares in this offering until the net asset value per share is greater than 97.5% of the public offering price, net of sales load. We will supplement the prospectus in the event that we need to change the public offering price to comply with this adopted policy.
 
  You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. Our Managing Dealer is CNL Securities Corp., which we refer to in this prospectus as our Managing Dealer. Neither we nor our Managing Dealer has authorized any other person to provide you with different information from that contained in this prospectus. The information contained in this prospectus is complete and accurate only as of the date of this prospectus, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or sale of our common stock. If there is a material change in our affairs, we will amend or supplement this prospectus. Any statement that we make in this prospectus may be modified or superseded by us in a subsequent prospectus supplement. The registration statement we filed with the SEC includes exhibits that provide more detailed descriptions of the matters discussed in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus, all prospectus supplements and the related registration statement exhibits, together with additional information described below under “Additional Information.”
 
  We maintain a website at www.corporatecapitaltrust.com. Information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and you should not consider that information to be part of this prospectus.
 
 
  Shares of our common stock offered through this prospectus are suitable only as a long-term investment for persons of adequate financial means such that they do not have a need for liquidity in this investment.

a net worth of at least $250,000.
 
  For purposes of determining the suitability of an investor, net worth in all cases should be calculated excluding the value of an investor’s home, home furnishings and automobiles. In the case of sales to fiduciary accounts, these minimum standards must be met by the beneficiary, the fiduciary account or the donor or grantor who directly or indirectly supplies the funds to purchase the shares if the donor or grantor is the fiduciary.
 
  Those selling shares on our behalf and participating broker-dealers and registered investment advisers recommending the purchase of shares in this offering are required to make every reasonable effort to determine that the purchase of shares in this offering is a suitable and appropriate investment for each investor based on information provided by the investor regarding the investor’s financial situation and investment objectives and must maintain records for at least six years of the information used to determine that an investment in the shares is suitable and appropriate for each investor. In making this determination, your participating broker-dealer, authorized representative or other person selling shares on our behalf will, based on a review of the information provided by you, consider whether you:
 
meet the minimum income and net worth standards established in your state; 
 
can reasonably benefit from an investment in our common stock based on your overall investment objectives and portfolio structure; 
 
 
ii

 
 
are able to bear the economic risk of the investment based on your overall financial situation, including the risk that you may lose your entire investment; and 
 
have an apparent understanding of the following: 
 
the fundamental risks of your investment;
 
the lack of liquidity of your shares;
 
the restrictions on transferability of your shares;
 
the background and qualification of our Advisors; and
 
the tax consequences of your investment.
 
  In purchasing shares, custodians or trustees of employee pension benefit plans or IRAs may be subject to the fiduciary duties imposed by ERISA, or other applicable laws and to the prohibited transaction rules prescribed by ERISA and related provisions of the Code. In addition, prior to purchasing shares, the trustee or custodian of an employee pension benefit plan or an IRA should determine that such an investment would be permissible under the governing instruments of such plan or account and applicable law.

We refer to CNL Financial Group, LLC as “CNL Financial Group” and to CNL Fund Advisors Company as “CNL.” We refer to KKR & Co. L.P. as “KKR & Co.” and to KKR Asset Management LLC as “KKR.” CNL and KKR serve as our investment advisors and are collectively referred to as our “Advisors.” We refer to our wholly owned special purpose financing subsidiaries, CCT Funding LLC, Halifax Funding LLC and Paris Funding LLC, as “CCT Funding,” “Halifax Funding” and “Paris Funding,” respectively.
 
     
 
Our Company
 
     
 
We are a non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company under the 1940 Act. Formed as a Maryland corporation on June 9, 2010, we are externally managed by CNL and KKR, which are collectively responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. Both of our Advisors are registered as investment advisers with the SEC. We have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or a RIC, under the Code.
 
     
 
Our investment objective is to provide our shareholders with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We intend to meet our investment objective by investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors. As of the date of this prospectus, our investment portfolio totaled $1.80 billion and consisted primarily of senior and subordinated debt. We anticipate that a substantial portion of our portfolio will consist of senior and subordinated debt, which we believe offer opportunities for superior risk-adjusted returns and income generation. Our debt investments may take the form of corporate loans or bonds, may be secured or unsecured and may, in some cases, be accompanied by warrants, options or other forms of equity participation. We may separately purchase common or preferred equity interests in transactions. Our portfolio is expected to include fixed-rate investments that generate absolute returns as well as floating-rate investments that provide protection in rising interest rate and inflationary environments.
 
     
 
We will seek to continue to build on the strong investment expertise and sourcing networks of our Advisors and adhere to an investment approach that emphasizes strong fundamental credit analysis and rigorous portfolio monitoring. We intend to continue to be disciplined in selecting investments and focus on opportunities that we perceive offer favorable risk/reward characteristics and relative value. We believe the market for lending is currently characterized by significant demand for capital and that we will continue to have considerable opportunities as a provider of capital to achieve attractive pricing and terms on our investments. We are raising funds with the goal of serving our target market and continuing to capitalize on what we believe is a compelling and sustained market opportunity.  See “Company Profile” beginning on page 37.
 
     
 
Use of Proceeds
 
     
 
Since commencing our continuous public offering and through October 29, 2013, we have sold 136,849,799 shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $1.48 billion.
 
     
 
We have used net proceeds raised to date, and will use the net proceeds from this offering to make investments in accordance with our investment objective and by following the strategies described in this prospectus. These proceeds also may be used for working capital purposes.  See “Use of Proceeds” beginning on page 64.
 
     
 
Based on prevailing market conditions, we will invest the proceeds from each weekly subscription closing generally within 30-90 days. The precise timing will depend on the availability of investment opportunities that are consistent with our investment objective and strategies. Until we are able to find such investment opportunities, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this offering primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, money market funds and high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment. This is consistent with our status as a business development company and our intention to qualify annually as a RIC.
 
     
 
We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to reduce our borrowings under revolving credit agreements, to pay our operating expenses and fund distributions to shareholders.  In addition, we will pay management fees under the Investment Advisory Agreement as described elsewhere in this prospectus.

  Distribution Policy    
         
  On June 8, 2011, we began authorizing and paying monthly distributions to our shareholders. Because we intend to maintain our qualification as a RIC, we intend to distribute at least 90% of our annual taxable income to our shareholders. Our board of directors meets quarterly to declare weekly distribution record dates and monthly distribution payment dates. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all. Each year, a statement on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution is mailed to our shareholders. See “Distributions” on page 65.  
                     
  We may fund our cash distributions to shareholders from any sources of funds available to us, including fee reductions by our Advisors that may be subject to repayment, as well as offering proceeds and borrowings. We have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from any available sources to make distributions. Distributions from offering proceeds or from borrowings could also reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in portfolio companies. Our distributions in our initial year of investment operations resulted from operating expense support payments by our Advisors to us that we are obligated to repay within three years. You should understand that such distributions were not based on our investment performance. You should also understand that our repayments to our Advisors in current and future periods will reduce the distributions that you would otherwise be entitled to receive. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the performance necessary to sustain our distributions, or that we will be able to continue to pay distributions at a specific rate, or at all. Our Advisors have no obligation to reduce their advisory fees or otherwise reimburse expenses in future periods.  
                     
  The general sources of paid distributions attributable to the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were as follows:

  Our Advisors    
                                         
  Our investment advisers are CNL, which is responsible for the overall management of our activities, and KKR, which is responsible for the day-to-day management of our investment portfolio. Under the overall supervision of our board of directors, CNL provides its investment advisory services under an investment advisory agreement with us, or the Investment Advisory Agreement, as amended, and its administrative services under an administrative services agreement with us, or the Administrative Services Agreement. KKR provides its services under a sub-advisory agreement with CNL and us, or the Sub-Advisory Agreement.  See “Advisory Agreements and Fees” beginning on page 59.  
                                         
  Our investment process is a collaborative effort between CNL and KKR and benefits from the combined business and specific industry knowledge, transaction expertise and deal-sourcing capabilities they bring. To facilitate communication and coordination, our Advisors hold regular meetings to plan and discuss our investment strategy, potential investment opportunities, current market developments and investment goals. We believe their joint involvement in our business provides us with substantial market insight and valuable access to investment opportunities.

About KKR
 
 KKR is a subsidiary of KKR & Co., a leading global investment firm with $83.5 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2013 and a 37-year history of leadership, innovation and investment excellence. Founded in 1976, KKR & Co. is a global firm with 18 offices and over 900 employees, including more than 200 investment professionals as of June 30, 2013. It operates an integrated global platform for sourcing and executing investments across multiple industries, asset classes and geographies, and its executives are incentivized to think of KKR as “one firm” and to promote the success of all of its endeavors. Since its inception, KKR & Co. has completed more than 200 private equity transactions with a total transaction value of over $470 billion. As of June 30, 2013, KKR had $19.9 billion of assets under management.
 
 KKR & Co. operates with a single culture that rewards investment discipline, creativity, determination and patience and the sharing of information, resources, expertise and best practices across offices and asset classes, subject to well-defined information sharing policies and procedures. Because it believes that deep industry knowledge is integral to sourcing deals, working with portfolio companies and creating value for investors, its investment professionals are organized in industry-specific teams that focus on nine core industries that require specialized knowledge and experience. These teams conduct their own primary research, develop views on industry themes and trends and proactively work to identify companies in which to invest, often on an exclusive basis. We believe this industry approach allows investment teams to become experts within their sectors and build strong relationships with companies needing capital, while covering the full corporate credit space.

Risk Factors
 
 An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk and may be considered speculative. You should carefully consider the information found in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 15 before deciding to invest in shares of our common stock. Risks involved in an investment in us include (among others) the following:
 
         
 
We are a relatively new company and are subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any business with a relatively short operating history, including the risk that we will not achieve our investment objective and that the value of our common stock could decline substantially.  
         
 
You should not expect to be able to sell your shares regardless of how we perform.  
         
   
If you are able to sell your shares of common stock, you will likely receive less than your purchase price and the current net asset value per share.  Because you will be unable to sell your shares, you will be unable to reduce your exposure on any market downturn.
 
         
   
We do not intend to list our common stock on any securities exchange during or for what may be a significant time after the offering period, and we do not expect a secondary market in the shares to develop.
 
         
   
We have implemented a share repurchase program, but only a limited number of shares of common stock are eligible for repurchase by us. In addition, any such repurchases will be at a price less than the current offering price in effect on the date that we initiate each quarterly repurchase offer.
 
         
   
You should consider that you may not have access to the money you invest for an indefinite period of time.
 
         
   
An investment in our shares of common stock is not suitable for you if you need access to the money you invest. See “Share Repurchase Program,” “Suitability Standards” and “Liquidity Strategy.”
 
         
   
Our distributions in our initial year of investment operations were not based on our investment performance, but were supported by our Advisor in the form of operating expense support payments.  Now we are obligated to repay our Advisors and these repayments will reduce the current and future distributions that you should otherwise receive from your investment.
 
         
 
Our portfolio companies may request our assistance in the management of their affairs, however we may not have director or shareholder controls over the business affairs of the companies to which we loan capital. In addition, our investments in portfolio companies will be structured to be held until maturity and may not provide us with favorable terms for short term liquidity of the capital that we invest in them.  
         
 
We have not established any limit on the extent to which we may use borrowings or offering proceeds to fund distributions to shareholders, which may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in assets, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to sustain distributions at any particular level. Our distributions may exceed our earnings, particularly during the period before we have substantially invested our net offering proceeds, which may result in commensurate reductions in net asset value per share.

This is a “best efforts” offering and, if we are unable to raise substantial funds we will be more limited in the number and type of investments we may make. As a result, our ability to diversify will be constrained.
 
       
 
Our investments may include original issue discount instruments. To the extent original issue discount constitutes a portion of our income, we will be exposed to typical risks associated with such income being required to be included in taxable and accounting income prior to receipt of the cash representing such income.
 
       
 
You should not rely on your own broker-dealer to make an independent review and investigation of the terms of this offering. Because you should not rely on your broker-dealer, you will not have the benefit of any independent review and evaluation of the terms of this offering by our Managing Dealer. In addition, we do not, and do not expect to, have research analysts reviewing our performance or our securities on an ongoing basis. Therefore, you will not have an independent review of our performance and the value of our common stock relative to other publicly traded companies.
 
       
 
The TRS entered into by our wholly owned financing subsidiary exposes us to certain risks, including market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and other risks associated with the use of leverage. Where indicated, some of our data includes TRS reference assets that are owned and held by a counterparty to the TRS.  See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Portfolio and Investment Activity” for more information.
 
       
 
Market Opportunity
 
 We pursue a strategy focused on investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors. We believe that the size of the market and these companies’ demand for flexible sources of capital have the potential to create an attractive investment environment for a number of reasons, including the following:
 
 
 
Current Market Environment. Although U.S. financial conditions have improved significantly since the recession of 2008-2009, we continue to identify highly interesting idiosyncratic investment opportunities. As U.S. corporate credit fundamentals have improved, default activity has decreased dramatically over the prior three years and remains low by historical standards. There have been unprecedented new issue-volumes as the financing environment has improved dramatically. Many large corporate issuers have benefited from this favorable capital market environment. Despite the relative ease with which large-scale corporates may have access to low-cost capital, there remains a substantial number of companies that, for a variety of reasons, are unable to access the syndicated debt markets on attractive financing terms. In the United States, we have often found such reasons to include size of issuer, complicated industry dynamics, regulatory overhang, as well as unique or complex capital structures. Given these market conditions, it is our view that providing senior and subordinated debt transactions to such companies represents an attractive investment opportunity. Furthermore, we believe the opportunity set for potential lending transactions is likely to increase given the potential for a gradual Federal Reserve tapering and for a move away from the current Central Bank-subsidized low-interest rate environment.
 
       
 
Significant Private Equity Capital Available for New Transactions. In addition to general refinancing opportunities that rely heavily on debt financing, we believe there is a large pool of committed but uninvested capital, both in the United States and globally, available for use in new private equity investments. Industry sources suggest that as of October 2013, there was more than $386 billion of private equity capital available for private equity investments in the United States alone. We expect that as a result of their investable capital, private equity firms will be active investors in U.S. medium- and large-sized companies over the next few years and will require significant amounts of debt to finance their transactions.
 
       
 
Greater Demand for Non-Traditional Sources of Debt Financing. We believe that the financial crisis of 2008 inspired a certain skepticism on the part of small and middle-market companies towards institutional banks. Facing balance sheet strain as a result of the financial crisis, we believe that these institutions have also become less focused on building a constructive, long-term relationship with smaller borrowers. Consequently, we believe there is an increasing trend for companies to seek financing from alternative capital providers, such as our Company, that are able to develop trusted relationships with borrowers and offer a higher degree of certainty.
 
       
 
Business Environment.  As new banking regulations, such as those implementing the 2010 Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s Third Accord (or, Basel III) and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (or, the Dodd-Frank Act), require financial institutions to meet increased capital requirements, we believe it will become difficult and inefficient for these institutions to meet the financing needs of growing medium- to large-sized companies.  This, in our view will continue to provide us with a potential market opportunity to deploy capital through primary issuance securities to this growing segment of the U.S. economy.

Our Potential Competitive Advantages
 
 As a business development company with a particular focus on lending activities, we experience competition from other business development companies, commercial banks, specialty finance companies, open-end and closed-end investment companies, opportunity funds, private equity funds and institutional investors, many of which generally have had greater financial resources than we do for the purposes of lending to U.S. businesses within our stated investment focus. These competitors may also have a lower cost of capital, may be subject to less regulatory oversight, and may have lower overall operating costs. The level of competition impacts both our ability to raise capital, find suitable corporate borrowers that meet our investment criteria and acquire and originate loans to these corporate borrowers. We may also face competition from other funds in which affiliates of KKR participate or advise.
 
 We believe we have the following potential competitive advantages over other capital providers that operate in the markets we target and allow us to take advantage of the market opportunity we have identified:
 
       
 
Proprietary Sourcing and Deal Origination. Our Advisors, through their deep industry relationships and investment teams that actively source new investments, provide us with immediate access to an established source of proprietary deal flow. CNL and KKR have built leading franchises and deep relationships with major companies, financial institutions and other investment and advisory institutions for sourcing new investments. KKR’s investment professionals are also organized into industry groups that conduct their own primary research, develop views on industry themes and trends and proactively work to identify companies in which to invest, often on an exclusive basis. We believe that our Advisors’ broad networks and the internal deal generation strategies of their investment teams create favorable opportunities to deploy capital across a broad range of originated transactions that have attractive investment characteristics.
 
       
 
Focusing on Preserving Capital and Minimizing Losses. We believe that protecting principal and avoiding capital losses are critical to generating attractive risk-adjusted returns. Toward that end, our investment process is designed to: (i) utilize our Advisors’ proprietary knowledge and deep industry relationships to identify attractive prospective portfolio companies, (ii) conduct rigorous due diligence to evaluate the creditworthiness of, and potential returns from, credit investments in such portfolio companies, (iii) stress test prospective investments to assess the viability of potential portfolio companies in a downside scenario and their ability to repay principal and (iv) structure investments and design covenants and other rights that anticipate and mitigate issues identified through this process.
 
       
 
Experienced Management and Investment Expertise. Each of our Advisors has more than 35 years of investment experience that spans a broad range of economic, market and financial conditions. By accessing their combined resources, skills and experience, we believe we benefit from CNL’s contrarian investment philosophy of focusing on underserved, undercapitalized markets and KKR’s rigorous investment approach, industry expertise and experience investing throughout a company’s capital structure.
 
       
 
Disciplined Credit Analysis and Portfolio Monitoring. Our Advisors provide us with immediate access to an established platform for evaluating investments, managing risk and focusing on opportunities that generate superior returns with appropriate levels of risk. Through KKR, we benefit from an investment infrastructure that currently employs more than 200 investment professionals, including more than 40 credit-focused investment professionals that currently track over 500 corporate credits. This platform should allow for intensive due diligence to filter investment opportunities and help select investments that offer the most favorable risk/reward characteristics.
 
       
 
Versatile Transaction Structuring and Flexible Capital. Our Advisors have experience and expertise in evaluating and structuring investments at all levels of a company’s capital structure and with varying features, providing numerous tools to manage risk while preserving opportunities for income, capital preservation and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We seek to continue to capitalize on this expertise and build our  investment portfolio that performs in a broad range of economic conditions while meeting the unique needs of a broad range of borrowers. Although we are subject to regulation as a business development company, we are not subject to many of the regulatory limitations that govern traditional lending institutions. As a result, we believe that we can be more flexible in selecting and structuring investments and adjusting investment criteria. We believe borrowers view this flexibility as a benefit, making us an attractive financing partner.
 
       
 
Long-Term Investment Horizon. We believe that our flexibility to make investments with a long-term perspective provides us with the opportunity to generate favorable returns on invested capital and expands the types of investments that we may consider. The long-term nature of our capital helps us avoid disposing of assets at unfavorable prices and we believe makes us a better partner for portfolio companies.
 
       
 
Limited Leverage. We anticipate maintaining a relatively low level of leverage compared to traditional financial institutions and many unregulated investment funds. We believe that limiting our leverage will reduce volatility and risk in our portfolio. Furthermore, by maintaining prudent leverage levels, we believe we will be better positioned to weather market downturns. We do not foresee at any time reaching the 200% asset coverage ratio limitation for business development companies, as defined in the 1940 Act.  We expect to borrow funds, including deemed senior securities, at an asset coverage ratio of approximately 250%.

Our Investment Strategy
 
 Our investment strategy focuses on creating an investment portfolio that generates superior risk-adjusted returns by carefully selecting investments through rigorous due diligence and actively managing and monitoring our portfolio. When evaluating an investment, we use the resources of our Advisors to develop an investment thesis and a proprietary view of a potential portfolio company’s intrinsic value. We believe our flexible approach to investing allows us to take advantage of opportunities that offer favorable risk/reward characteristics.
 
 While we consider each investment opportunity independently, we generally focus on portfolio companies that share the following characteristics:
 
       
 
Size. We seek to provide capital to medium- and large-sized companies, which typically have more defensible market positions, stronger franchises and operations and better credit characteristics relative to their smaller peers. Although there are no strict lower or upper limits on the size of a company in which we may invest, we expect to focus on companies with EBITDAs greater than $25 million.
 
       
 
Capital Structure. Our portfolio consists primarily of senior and subordinated debt, which may in some cases be accompanied by warrants, options, equity co-investments, or other forms of equity participation. We seek to invest in companies that generate free cash flow at the time of our investment and benefit from material investments from well-known equity investors.
 
       
 
Management Team. We seek to prioritize investing in portfolio companies with strong, existing management teams that we believe have a clear strategic vision, long-standing experience in their industry and a successful operating track record. We favor companies in which management’s incentives appear to be closely aligned with the long-term performance of the business, such as through equity ownership.
 
       
 
Stage of Business Life Cycle. We seek mature, privately owned businesses that have long track records of stable, positive cash flow. We do not intend to invest in start-up companies or companies with speculative business plans.
 
       
 
Industry Focus. While we will consider opportunities within all industries, we seek to prioritize industries having, in our view, favorable characteristics from a lending perspective. For example, we seek companies in established industries with stable competitive and regulatory frameworks, where the main participants have enjoyed predictable, low-volatility earnings. We give less emphasis to industries that are frequently characterized by less predictable and more volatile earnings.
 
       
 
Geography. As a business development company under the 1940 Act, we focus on and invest at least 70% of our total assets in U.S. companies. To the extent we invest in foreign companies, we intend to do so in accordance with 1940 Act limitations and only in jurisdictions with established legal frameworks and a history of respecting creditor rights, including countries that are members of the European Union, as well as Canada, Australia and Japan.
 
       
 
 While we believe that the criteria listed above are important in identifying and investing in portfolio companies, we consider each investment on a case-by-case basis. It is possible that not all of these criteria will be met by each portfolio company in which we invest. There is no limit on the maturity or duration of any investment in our portfolio. We anticipate that substantially all of the investments held in our portfolio will have either a sub-investment grade rating by Moody’s Investors Service and/or Standard & Poor’s or will not be rated by any rating agency. Investment sizes will vary as our capital base changes and will ultimately be at the discretion of our Advisors subject to oversight by our board of directors.
 
Other Factors Affecting Portfolio Construction
 
 As a business development company that is regulated under the 1940 Act and intends to qualify annually as a RIC under the Code, our investment activities are subject to certain regulatory restrictions that will shape our portfolio construction. These restrictions include requirements that we invest our capital primarily in U.S. companies that are privately owned, as well as investment diversification and source of income criteria that are imposed by the Code. For a description of certain valuation risks associated with our investments in privately owned companies, see “Risk Factors – A significant portion of our investment portfolio is recorded at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors and, as a result, there is and will be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments” on page 17.
 
 In addition, we generally are not permitted to co-invest alongside certain affiliates of our Advisors in privately negotiated transactions, absent an exemptive order from the SEC. On May 21, 2013, the SEC issued an order granting us exemptive relief that
 
       
 
 
6

 
 
               
 
expands our ability to co-invest with certain of our affiliates in privately negotiated transactions.  Subject to the conditions specified in the exemptive order, we are permitted to co-invest with those affiliates in certain additional investment opportunities, including investments originated and directly negotiated by KKR.
 
Portfolio and Investment Activity
 
 As of June 30, 2013, our investment program consisted of two main components.  First, since the inception of our investment activities we have been engaged in the direct purchase of debt securities primarily issued by portfolio companies, and these debt securities were acquired through both secondary market and primary issuance transactions. We refer to this investment component as our investment portfolio in this prospectus. Second, beginning in November 2012, we have been increasing our economic exposure to portfolio companies by entering into a total return swap, or TRS, arrangement with a commercial bank counterparty and directing the creation of a portfolio of underlying corporate bonds and loans that serve as reference assets under the TRS. We refer to this investment component as either our portfolio of TRS reference assets, or our TRS Portfolio. In the case of our portfolio of TRS reference assets, we receive all: (i) realized income and fees and (ii) realized capital gains generated by TRS reference assets.  In return, we must pay quarterly to the TRS counterparty a payment consisting of: (i) realized capital losses and (ii) financing costs that are based on (i) floating interest rate and (ii) the settled notional amount of TRS reference assets.  The settled notional amount of TRS reference assets is the net aggregate of notional amounts where the purchase and sale of reference assets underlying total return swaps have been settled by the counterparty and serves as the basis for paying financing charges to the counterparty under the TRS agreements.  The total notional amount of TRS reference assets includes the effect of purchases and sale of reference assets where trade settlement is pending.  At the end of the TRS contract life, we will receive additional economic benefit if the net value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets appreciates relative to the settlement date TRS notional amount.  Correspondingly, we will be required to pay the counterparty the amount, if any, by which the net value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets declines relative to the settlement date TRS notional amount. We do not own, or have physical custody of, the TRS reference assets. The TRS reference assets are not direct investments by us.
 
 As of June 30, 2013, our investment portfolio consisted of debt and equity securities relating to 98 portfolio companies diversified across 21 industry classifications. As of June 30, 2013, the TRS reference assets consisted of debt securities relating to 30 portfolio companies diversified across 14 industry classifications.
 
 The information presented in the following table is for further analysis of our investment portfolio and our TRS Portfolio. However, our investment program is not managed with any specific investment diversification or dispersion target goals. The following table summarizes the composition of our investment portfolio and our TRS Portfolio based on fair value as of June 30, 2013, excluding our short term investments.

Advisors Fees
 
 We pay CNL a fee for its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The fee consists of two components: a management fee and an incentive fee. The Sub-Advisory Agreement between CNL and KKR provides that KKR receives 50% of all fees payable to CNL under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2% of our average gross assets and is payable monthly in arrears. The incentive fee comprises the following two parts:
 
                                         
 
An incentive fee on net investment income, which we refer to as the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and is based upon our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding quarter. The quarterly incentive fee on net investment income is (a) 100% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income of between 1.75% and 2.1875% of average adjusted capital, plus (b) 20% of pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 2.1875% of average adjusted capital.
 
       
 
 
7

 
 
       
 
An incentive fee on capital gains is calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year. It is equal to 20% of our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of such calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fees on capital gains as calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) (subject to the limitation discussed in the next paragraph).
 
       
 
 From and after January 1, 2013, for purposes of computing the performance-based incentive fee payable to the Advisors, we disregard any gains associated with the TRS interest spread (which represents the difference between (i) the interest and fees received on total return swaps, and (ii) the interest paid to the total return swaps counterparty on the settled notional value of total return swaps), and we only consider the net realized gains or losses on the termination or maturity of total return swaps for the purpose of testing and computing incentive fees on capital gains that may be payable annually to the Advisors.
 
 The incentive fee may induce our Advisors to make investments on our behalf that are more risky or more speculative than would otherwise be the case. Similarly, because our management fee is calculated based on our gross assets (including any borrowings for investment purposes), our Advisors may be encouraged to use leverage to make additional investments. See “Risk Factors – Risks related to our Advisors and their respective affiliates – Our incentive fee may induce our Advisors to make speculative investments” on page 20 and “Advisory Agreements and Fees” beginning on page 59.
 
Suitability Standards
 
 Pursuant to applicable state securities laws, shares of common stock offered through this prospectus are suitable only as a long-term investment for persons of adequate financial means who have no need for liquidity in this investment. Initially, there is not expected to be any public market for the shares, which means that investors will likely have limited ability to sell their shares. As a result, we have established suitability standards which require investors to have either: (i) a net worth of at least $70,000 and an annual gross income of at least $70,000, or (ii) a net worth of at least $250,000. Under these standards, net worth does not include your home, home furnishings or personal automobiles. In addition, our Managing Dealer will require that a potential investor (1) can reasonably benefit from an investment in us based on such investor’s overall investment objectives and portfolio structuring; (2) is able to bear the economic risk of the investment based on the prospective shareholder’s overall financial situation; and (3) has apparent understanding of (a) the fundamental risks of the investment, (b) the risk that such investor may lose his or her entire investment, (c) the lack of liquidity of our shares, (d) the background and qualifications of our Advisors and (e) the tax consequences of the investment.  See “Suitability Standards” beginning on page ii for further details and additional suitability requirements that may apply to residents of specific states or clients of participating broker-dealers.
 
Plan of Distribution
 
 We are offering on a best efforts, continuous basis up to 209,000,000 shares of our common stock at our current offering price of $11.10 per share. Our Managing Dealer is CNL Securities Corp., which is an affiliate of CNL and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or SIPC. Our Managing Dealer is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares, but has agreed to use its best efforts to sell the shares offered. The minimum permitted purchase is $5,000 in shares of our common stock (or $4,000 for qualified plans). We will sell our shares on a continuous basis at the current offering price of $11.10. If or when our net asset value per share increases above our net proceeds per share as stated in this prospectus, our board of directors will increase our public offering price to ensure that shares are sold at a net price, after deduction of selling commissions and marketing support fees, that is not below our net asset value per share. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 104.

Shareholder Liquidity Strategy
 
 On or before December 31, 2018, our board of directors must consider, but is not required to recommend or complete, a liquidity event for our shareholders. A liquidity event could include: (i) a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange, (ii) a merger or another transaction approved by our board of directors in which our shareholders will receive cash or shares of a listed company, or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of our assets either on a complete portfolio basis or individually followed by a liquidation. We do not know at this time what circumstances will exist in the future and therefore we do not know what factors our board of directors will consider in determining whether to pursue a liquidity event in the future. If a liquidity event is not completed, shareholders may be required to hold their shares for an indefinite period of time. Prior to a liquidity event, our share repurchase program may provide a limited opportunity for you to have your shares of common stock repurchased as described below.  See “Company Profile – Shareholder Liquidity Strategy” beginning on page 52.
 
Our Distribution Reinvestment Plan
 
 We have adopted a distribution reinvestment plan that allows our shareholders to have the full amount of their distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock.  See “Distribution Reinvestment Plan” on page 110.
 
Share Repurchase Program
 
 We have adopted a share repurchase program in which we may repurchase, in each quarter, up to 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters.  We currently intend to limit the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares we can repurchase with the proceeds we receive from the issuance of shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of our board of directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the sale of our investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares. Our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program upon 30 days’ notice. All shares purchased by us pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued shares. See “Share Repurchase Program” beginning on page 111.
 
Reports to Shareholders
 
 Within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, we are required to file our quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, we are required to file our annual report on Form 10-K. We will provide a copy of our annual report on Form 10-K to all shareholders of record as of the end of each fiscal year shortly after filing it with the SEC. These reports, including any prospectus supplements, current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to these listed reports are made available free of charge on our website at  www.corporatecapitaltrust.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. See “Additional Information – Reports to Shareholders” beginning on page 112.
 
Taxation of Our Company
 
 We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level federal income taxes on ordinary income or capital gains we distribute to our shareholders from our tax earnings and profits. To maintain our RIC qualification, we must continue to meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and distribute annually at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. We will monitor our transactions to endeavor to prevent our disqualification as a RIC.  See “Tax Matters” beginning on page 114.

Example: We have provided an example of the projected dollar amount of total expenses that would be incurred over various periods with respect to a hypothetical $1,000 investment in our common stock. In calculating the following expense amounts, we have assumed that: (1) we have indebtedness, including deemed senior securities from the TRS arrangement, equal to 67% of our average net assets, (2) that our annual operating expenses remain at the levels set forth in the table above, (3) that the annual return on investments before fees and expenses is 5%, (4) that the net return after payment of fees and expenses is distributed to shareholders and reinvested at net asset value, and (5) that subscribers to our shares will pay an up-front selling commission of up to 7% and a marketing support fee of up to 3% with respect to common stock sold by us in this offering.

While the example assumes a 5% annual return on investment before fees and expenses, our performance will vary and may result in an annual return that is greater or less than 5%.  This example should not be considered a representation of your future expenses.  If we achieve sufficient returns on our investments to trigger a subordinated incentive fee on income of a material amount, both our distributions to our common shareholders and our expenses would be higher. If the 5% annual return is generated entirely from annual, realized capital gains, an incentive fee on capital gains under the Investment Advisory Agreement would be incurred, as shown above.  See “Advisory Agreements and Fees” for information concerning incentive fees. If we achieve sufficient returns on our investments to trigger a subordinated incentive fee on income of a material amount, our expenses would likely be higher.

As shares are sold, you will pay a maximum sales load of 10% for combined selling commissions and marketing support fees to our Managing Dealer in accordance with the terms of the managing dealer agreement, which we refer to in this prospectus as the Managing Dealer Agreement. Our Managing Dealer will engage unrelated, third-party participating broker-dealers in connection with the offering of shares. In connection with the sale of shares by participating broker-dealers, our Managing Dealer will reallow and pay participating broker-dealers up to: (a) 7% of the gross proceeds from their allocated sales and (b) 3% for marketing support fees.  See ”Plan of Distribution” for a description of the circumstances under which a selling commission and/or marketing support fee may be reduced or eliminated in connection with certain purchases. Selling commissions and marketing support fees will not be paid in connection with the purchase of shares pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan.

The offering expense reimbursement ratio of 1.0% is based on current estimates of (i) offering expenses of $22.2 million to be incurred and reimbursed by us in connection with this offering, (ii) 209 million shares sold pursuant to this offering and (iii) a public offering price of $11.10 per share over the term of this offering. While we believe that these estimates are reasonable, the actual offering expense reimbursement ratio may be higher than 1.0%. CNL and KKR are responsible for the payment of our organization and offering expenses to the extent that these expenses exceed 5% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering, without recourse against or reimbursement by us. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012, the effective offering expense reimbursement rates were 0.93% and 0.72% of gross offering proceeds, respectively.
   
 
Pursuant to an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement, as amended, between us and our Advisors agreed to pay certain of our operating expenses during the period June 16, 2011 through June 30, 2012.  We have been reimbursing and will continue to reimburse our Advisors for the full amount of these payments and our reimbursements have reduced and will continue to reduce the distributions that would otherwise be paid to shareholders.  Reimbursement payments are included in other expenses in the Fees and Expenses table above.  See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Contractual Obligations—Expense Support Agreement.”
   
(3)
The expenses of the distribution reinvestment plan are included in other expenses in the table above. See “Distribution Reinvestment Plan.” 
   
(4)
Net assets employed as the denominator for expense ratio computation is $1.73 billion.  This estimate is based on the assumption that we sell $1.04 billion worth of our common stock in the twelve month period ending September 30, 2014. Actual net assets will depend on the number of shares we sell, realized gains/losses, unrealized appreciation/depreciation and share repurchase activity.
   
(5)
Our base management fee paid to our Advisors is calculated at an annual rate of 2% on the average value of our gross assets, and assuming we borrow funds, including the deemed senior securities from the TRS arrangement, at 67% of net assets. The estimate in the Fees and Expenses table is greater than 2% since it is computed as a percentage of net assets. If we borrow funds in excess of the 67% debt-to-net asset value ratio, then our base management fee in relation to our net assets would be higher than the estimate presented in the fee table.
 
(6)
The estimate for incentive fees assumes that the incentive fees payable to our Advisors (including the accrual for net unrealized appreciation) will bear the same percentage to average net assets for 2013 as (i) the incentive fees, including the accrual for earned and unearned incentive fees on capital gains for 2012 ($1.98 million, as reported in our 2012 Form 10-K) bears to (ii) our average net assets for 2012 ($304.26 million, as reported in our 2012 Form 10-K), which percentage is 0.65%. Actual results for 2013 may differ materially from this estimate. No incentive fee was earned by the Advisors in 2012. Based on our current business plan, we anticipate that we may have sufficient capital gains and net investment income that could result in the payment of an incentive fee to our Advisors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. The incentive fees are based on our performance and will not be paid unless we achieve certain goals. See “Advisory Agreements and Fees” for more information concerning the incentive fees. The incentive fee, if any, comprises two parts: 
 
 
(i)
a subordinated incentive fee on income, which, at a maximum, for any quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% of our average adjusted capital, will equal 20% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income; and
     
 
(ii)
an incentive fee on capital gains that will equal 20% of our capital gains, if any, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital gains as calculated in accordance with GAAP (subject to the limitation discussed in the next paragraph).
 
 
From and after January 1, 2013, for purposes of computing the performance-based incentive fee payable to the Advisors, we disregard any gains associated with the TRS interest spread (which represents the difference between (i) the interest and fees received on total return swaps, and (ii) the interest paid to the total return swaps counterparty on the settled notional value of total return swaps), and we only consider the net realized gains or losses on the termination or maturity of total return swaps for the purpose of testing and computing incentive fees on capital gains that may be payable annually to the Advisors.
   
(7)
We borrow funds to make investments, and the costs associated with such borrowing will be indirectly borne by our investors. The estimate in the Fees and Expenses table assumes we borrow for investment purposes an amount equal to 67% of our net assets and that the weighted average all-in annual cost of borrowings, including the TRS financing costs, is 2.59%. 
   
(8)
From time to time, we may invest in the securities or other investment instruments of public investment companies or business development companies. We assume a daily average of $100 million invested in money market funds at an average annual operating expense ratio of 0.16%.
   
(9)
Other expenses are based on a projection of expenses we expect to incur in connection with administering our business and our company during calendar year 2013. The expenses of the distribution reinvestment plan are included in other expenses. The percentage presented in the Fees and Expenses table is based on the assumptions that (i) we achieve average net assets of approximately $1.03 billion during calendar year 2013, and (ii) that all remaining unreimbursed expense support payments as of December 31, 2012 will be accrued and included in other expenses as reimbursement payable to the Advisors. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Expenses.”

Q:
What are business development companies?
   
A:
Business development companies are closed-end funds that elect to be treated as business development companies under the 1940 Act. As such, business development companies are subject to only certain sections of and rules under the 1940 Act, as well as the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Business development companies typically invest in private or thinly traded public companies in the form of long-term debt or equity capital, with the goal of generating current income and/or capital growth. Business development companies can be internally or externally managed and may qualify to elect to be taxed as regulated investment companies, or RICs, for federal tax purposes if they so choose.
   
Q:
What is a RIC?
   
A:
A RIC is a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. A RIC generally does not have to pay corporate level federal income taxes on any income that it distributes to its shareholders as taxable distributions. To qualify as a RIC, a company must meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, in order to maintain RIC tax treatment, a company must distribute to its shareholders for each taxable year at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income,” which is generally its net ordinary income plus the excess of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses.
   
Q:
Will the distributions to which I would otherwise be entitled be reduced by reimbursements owed to the Advisors for expense support payments in prior years?
   
A:
You should understand that a significant amount of our prior distributions in calendar year 2011 were not based on our investment performance, but were supported by the Advisors in the form of operating expense support payments from the Advisors to us, and these payments are subject to reimbursement by us.  You should also understand that our reimbursements to the Advisors will reduce the distributions that you would otherwise be entitled to receive.  As of December 31, 2012, we accrued $1.83 million (approximately $0.06 per weighted average share outstanding in 2012) for reimbursement of the Advisors.  This amount, which was subsequently paid to the Advisors in the first quarter of 2013, would otherwise have been paid to shareholders in 2012.  As of June 30, 2013, we have accrued for additional reimbursements payable to the Advisors for prior-year expense support payments in the amount of $1.13 million (approximately $0.014 per weighted average share outstanding), and this amount is expected to be paid in the first quarter of 2014.  Both the paid and accrued amount in 2013 will complete our reimbursement obligations for all expense support payments from prior periods.
   
Q:
What is a “best efforts” securities offering and how long will this securities offering last?
   
A:
When shares of common stock are offered to the public on a “best efforts” basis, the broker-dealers participating in the offering are only required to use their best efforts to sell such shares. Broker-dealers are not underwriters, and they do not have a firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares of common stock. We currently intend to file post-effective amendments to this registration statement, which will be subject to SEC review, to allow us to continue this offering for at least two years. Under certain conditions, we may decide to extend this offering beyond two years.
   
Q:
At what periodic frequency will we accept and close on subscriptions?
   
A:
We schedule weekly closings on subscriptions received and accepted by us.
   
Q:
Will I receive a stock certificate?
   
A:
No. Our board of directors has authorized the issuance of shares of our capital stock without stock certificates. All shares of our common stock are issued in book-entry form only. The use of book-entry registration protects against loss, theft or destruction of stock certificates and reduces our offering costs and transfer agency costs.
   
Q:
Can I invest through my IRA, SEP or after-tax deferred account?
   
A:
Yes, subject to the suitability standards. A custodian, trustee or other authorized person must process and forward to us subscriptions made through individual retirement accounts, or IRAs, simplified employee pension plans, or SEPs, or after-tax deferred accounts. In the case of investments through IRAs, SEPs or after-tax deferred accounts, we will send the confirmation and notice of our acceptance to such custodian, trustee or other authorized person. Please be aware that in purchasing shares, custodians or trustees of employee pension benefit plans or IRAs may be subject to the fiduciary duties
 
 
12

 
 
  imposed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or ERISA, or other applicable laws and to the prohibited transaction rules prescribed by ERISA and related provisions of the Code. In addition, prior to purchasing shares, the trustee or custodian of an employee pension benefit plan or an IRA should determine that such an investment would be permissible under the governing instruments of such plan or account and applicable law. See ”Suitability Standards” for more information.
   
Q:
What kinds of fees will I be paying?
   
A:
There are two types of fees that you will incur. First, there are shareholder transaction expenses that are a one-time up-front fee. They are calculated as a percentage of the public offering price and made up of selling commissions, marketing support fees and offering expenses. Second, as an externally managed business development company, we also incur various recurring expenses, including the management fees and incentive fees that are payable under our Investment Advisory Agreement and administrative costs that are payable under our Administrative Services Agreement. See “Fees and Expenses” and “Advisory Agreements and Fees” for more information.
   
Q:
How will the payment of fees and expenses affect my invested capital?
   
A:
The payment of fees and expenses will reduce: (i) the funds available to us for investments in portfolio companies, (ii) the net income generated by us, (iii) funds available for distribution to our shareholders and (iv) the book value of your shares of common stock.
   
Q:
Are there any restrictions on the transfer of shares?
 
A:
No. Shares of our common stock have no preemptive, exchange, conversion or redemption rights and are freely transferable. We do not intend to list our securities on any securities exchange during the offering period, and we do not expect there to be a public market for our shares in the foreseeable future. As a result, your ability to sell your shares will be limited. We will not charge for transfers of our shares except for necessary and reasonable costs actually incurred by us. See ”Risk Factors – Risks related to an investment in our common stock.”
   
Q:
Will I be able to sell my shares of common stock in a secondary market?
   
A:
We do not intend to list our shares on a securities exchange during the offering period and do not expect a public market to develop for our shares in the foreseeable future. Because of the lack of a trading market for our shares, shareholders may not be able to sell their shares promptly or at a desired price. If you are able to sell your shares, you may have to sell them at a discount to the purchase price of your shares.
   
Q:
Will I otherwise be able to liquidate my investment?
   
A:
On or before December 31, 2018, our board of directors must consider, but is not required to recommend or complete, a liquidity event for our shareholders. A liquidity event could include: (i) a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange; (ii) a merger or other transaction approved by our board of directors in which our shareholders will receive cash or shares of another publicly traded company; or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of our assets, either on a complete portfolio basis or individually, followed by a liquidation. However, there can be no assurance that we will complete a liquidity event within such time or at all. To provide limited, interim liquidity to our shareholders, we conduct quarterly tender offers in accordance with the 1940 Act. This will be the only method available to our shareholders to obtain liquidity that we will offer prior to a liquidity event.  See “Share Repurchase Program.”
   
Q:
Will the distributions I receive be taxable?
   
A:
Yes. Although we intend to maintain annually our qualification as a RIC and generally not to pay federal corporate-level taxes, distributions by us generally are taxable to U.S. shareholders as ordinary income or capital gains. Distributions of our “investment company taxable income” (generally our net ordinary income plus realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses) will be taxable as ordinary income to U.S. shareholders to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional common stock. Distributions of our net capital gains (generally our realized net long-term capital gains in excess of realized net short-term capital losses) properly designated by us as “capital gain dividends” will be taxable to a U.S. shareholder as long-term capital gains in the case of individuals, trusts or estates, regardless of the U.S. shareholder’s holding period for his, her or its common stock and regardless of whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional common stock. Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits, or return of capital, first will reduce a U.S. shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in such shareholder’s common stock and, after the adjusted basis is reduced to zero, will constitute capital gains to such U.S. shareholder.  SeeTax Matters.”
 
 
13

 
 
Q:
When will I get my detailed tax information?
   
A:
Consistent with the Internal Revenue Service requirements, we intend to send to each of our U.S. shareholders, as promptly as possible after the end of each calendar year, a Form 1099-DIV detailing the amounts includible in such U.S. shareholder’s taxable income for such year as ordinary income and as long-term capital gain.
   
Q:
What is a total return swap?
   
A:
A total return swap, or TRS, is a contract in which one party agrees to make periodic payments to another party based on the change in the market value of the reference assets underlying the contract and any associated cash flows related to those reference assets, which may include a specified security, basket of securities or securities indices during the specified period, in return for periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate. A TRS effectively adds leverage to a portfolio by providing investment exposure to a security or market securities index without owning or taking physical custody of such security or investing directly in such security, basket of securities or specified index.  See“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Liquidity and Capital Resources— Total Return Swaps.”
   
Q:
Where are the principal executive offices of Corporate Capital Trust?
   
A:
Our principal executive offices are located at 450 S. Orange Ave., Orlando, FL 32801.
   
Q:
Who can help answer my questions?
 
A:
If you have more questions about this offering and the suitability of investing, you should contact your registered representative, financial advisor or investment advisory representative. If at any time you wish to receive this prospectus or the statement of additional information, or SAI, or any amendments to either of them, you may do so, free of charge, by contacting us through written communication at 450 S. Orange Ave., Orlando, FL 32801 or by telephone at 866-650-0650 or by downloading these materials on our website at  www.corporatecapitaltrust.com .

RISK FACTORS
 
Investing in our common stock involves a number of significant risks. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus, you should consider carefully the following information before making an investment in our common stock. The risks below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or not presently deemed material by us may also impair our operations and performance. If any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the net asset value and trading price, if any, of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
 
Risks related to our business
 
We have a limited operating history.
 
We are a relatively new company and are subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any business with a relatively short operating history, including the risk that we will not achieve or sustain our investment objective and that the value of our common stock could decline substantially.
 
Price declines in the medium- and large-sized corporate leveraged loan market may adversely affect the fair value of our portfolio, reducing our net asset value through increased net unrealized depreciation and the incurrence of realized losses.
 
Prior to the onset of the financial crisis that began in 2007, securitized investment vehicles, hedge funds and other highly leveraged non-bank financial institutions comprised the majority of the market for purchasing and holding senior and subordinated debt. As the trading price of the loans underlying these portfolios began to deteriorate beginning in the first quarter of 2007, we believe that many institutions were forced to raise cash by selling their interests in performing assets in order to satisfy margin requirements or the equivalent of margin requirements imposed by their lenders. This resulted in a forced deleveraging cycle of price declines, compulsory sales, and further price declines, with falling underlying credit values, widespread redemption requests, and other constraints resulting from the credit crisis generating further selling pressure.
 
Conditions in the medium- and large-sized U.S. corporate debt market may experience similar disruption or deterioration in the future, which may cause pricing levels to similarly decline or be volatile. As a result, our net asset value could decline through an increase in unrealized depreciation and incurrence of realized losses in connection with the sale of our investments, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our ability to achieve our investment objective depends on the Advisors’ ability to manage and support our investment process. If the Advisors were to lose a significant number of their respective key professionals, our ability to achieve our investment objective could be significantly harmed.
 
We do not have employees.  Additionally, we have no internal management capacity other than our appointed executive officers and are dependent upon the investment expertise, skill and network of business contacts of our Advisors to achieve our investment objective. Our Advisors evaluate, negotiate, structure, execute, monitor, and service our investments. Our success depends to a significant extent on the continued service and coordination of our Advisors, including their respective key professionals. The departure of a significant number of  key professionals from KKR and CNL could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our investment objective.
 
Our ability to achieve our investment objective also depends on the continued ability of our Advisors to identify, analyze, invest in, finance, and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria. Our Advisors’ capabilities in structuring the investment process, providing competent, attentive and efficient services to us, and facilitating access to financing on acceptable terms depend on the involvement of investment professionals in an adequate number and of adequate sophistication to match the corresponding flow of transactions. To achieve our investment objective, our Advisors may need to retain, hire, train, supervise, and manage new investment professionals to participate in our investment selection and monitoring process. Our Advisors may not be able to find qualified investment professionals in a timely manner or at all. Any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
In addition, both the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement have termination provisions that allow the agreements to be terminated by us on 60 days’ notice without penalty. Our Investment Advisory Agreement may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by CNL upon 120 days’ notice to us. The Sub-Advisory Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by KKR upon 120 days’ notice and may be terminated, without the payment of penalty, by CNL upon 60 days’ notice if our board of directors or holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock so direct. In addition, CNL and KKR have agreed that, in the event that one of them is removed by us other than for cause, or the advisory agreement of either of them is not renewed, the other will also terminate its agreement with us. The termination of either agreement
 
 
15

 
 
may adversely affect the quality of our investment opportunities. In addition, in the event either agreement were terminated, it may be difficult for us to replace CNL or for CNL to replace KKR.
 
The amount of any distributions we may make is uncertain. We may not be able to pay you distributions, or be able to sustain distributions at any particular level, and our distributions may not grow over time, and our distributions may be reduced. We have not established any limit on the extent to which we may use borrowings, if any, or offering proceeds to fund distributions (which may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in portfolio companies) and there can be no assurance that we will be able to sustain distributions at any particular level.
 
We pay distributions out of assets legally available for distribution. However, we cannot assure you that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a targeted level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. Our ability to pay distributions might be adversely affected by the impact of the risks described in this prospectus. In addition, the inability to satisfy the asset coverage test applicable to us as a business development company can limit our ability to pay distributions. Distributions from offering proceeds or from borrowings also could reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in interests of portfolio companies.  We cannot assure you that we will continue to pay distributions to our shareholders in the future.
 
Our distributions may exceed our earnings; therefore, portions of the distributions that we pay may represent a return of capital to you, which will lower your tax basis in your shares and reduce the amount of funds we have for investment in portfolio companies. We have not established any limit on the extent to which we may use borrowings, if any, or offering proceeds to fund distributions (which may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in portfolio companies).
 
In the event that we encounter delays in locating suitable investment opportunities, we may pay our distributions from offering proceeds or from borrowings in anticipation of future cash flow, which may constitute a return of your capital and will lower your tax basis in your shares. Distributions from offering proceeds or from borrowings also could reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in interests of portfolio companies.
 
Because our business model depends to a significant extent upon relationships with corporations, financial institutions and investment firms, the inability of the Advisors to maintain or develop these relationships, or the failure of these relationships to generate investment opportunities, could adversely affect our business.
 
We expect that CNL and KKR will depend on their relationships with corporations, financial institutions and investment firms, and we rely indirectly to a significant extent upon these relationships to provide us with potential investment opportunities. If CNL or KKR fails to maintain its existing relationships or develop new relationships or sources of investment opportunities, we may not be able to grow our investment portfolio. In addition, individuals with whom CNL and KKR have relationships are not obligated to provide us with investment opportunities, and, therefore, there is no assurance that such relationships will generate investment opportunities for us.
 
We may face increasing competition for investment opportunities, which could delay deployment of our capital, reduce returns and result in losses.
 
We compete for investments with other business development companies and investment funds (including registered investment companies, private equity funds and mezzanine funds), as well as traditional financial services companies such as commercial banks and other sources of funding. Moreover, alternative investment vehicles, such as hedge funds, have begun to invest in areas in which they have not traditionally invested, including making investments in our target market of privately owned U.S. companies. As a result of these new entrants, competition for investment opportunities in privately owned U.S. companies may intensify. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than we do. For example, some competitors may have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments than we have. These characteristics could allow our competitors to consider a wider variety of investments, establish more relationships and offer better pricing and more flexible structuring than we are able to do.
 
We may lose investment opportunities if we do not match our competitors’ pricing, terms, and structure criteria. If we are forced to match these criteria to make investments, we may not be able to achieve acceptable returns on our investments or may bear substantial risk of capital loss. A significant increase in the number and/or the size of our competitors in this target market could force us to accept less attractive investment terms. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a business development company or the source of income, asset diversification and distribution requirements we must satisfy to maintain our RIC status. The competitive pressures we face may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. As a result of this competition, we may not be able to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities from time to time. Also we may not be able to identify and make investments that are consistent with our investment objective.

A significant portion of our investment portfolio is recorded at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors and, as a result, there is and will be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments.
 
Under the 1940 Act, we are required to carry our portfolio investments at market value or, if there is no readily available market value, at fair value as determined in accordance with GAAP by our board of directors. There is not a public market or active secondary market for many of the securities of the privately held companies in which we invest. The majority of our investments are not publicly traded or actively traded on a secondary market but, instead, may be traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional investors. As a result, we value a significant portion of these securities quarterly at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors.
 
The determination of fair value, and thus the amount of unrealized gains or losses we may recognize in any year, is to a degree subjective, and our Advisors have a conflict of interest in making recommendations of fair value. We value these securities quarterly at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors based on input from our Advisors and our audit committee. Our board of directors may utilize the services of independent third-party valuation firms to aid it in determining the fair value of any securities. The types of factors that may be considered in determining the fair values of our investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow, current market interest rates and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, the valuations may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time due to changes in current market conditions. The determinations of fair value by our board of directors may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market and market quotations existed for these investments. Our net asset value could be adversely affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of our investments were materially higher than the values that we ultimately realize upon the disposal of such investments.
 
Our board of directors may change our operating policies and strategies without prior notice or shareholder approval, the effects of which may be adverse to our shareholders.
 
Our board of directors has the authority to modify or waive our current operating policies, investment criteria and strategies without prior notice and without shareholder approval. We cannot predict the effect any changes to our current operating policies, investment criteria and strategies would have on our business, net asset value, operating results and the value of our common stock. However, the effects might be adverse, which could negatively impact our ability to pay you distributions and cause you to lose all or part of your investment. Moreover, we will have significant flexibility in investing the net proceeds of this offering and may use the net proceeds from this offering in ways with which investors in us may not agree.
 
Changes in laws or regulations governing our operations may adversely affect our business or cause us to alter our business strategy.
 
We and our portfolio companies are subject to regulation at the local, state, and federal levels. Changes to the laws and regulations governing our permitted investments may require a change to our investment strategy. Such changes could differ materially from our strategies and plans as set forth in this prospectus and may shift our investment focus from the areas of expertise of our Advisors. Thus, any such changes, if they occur, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of your investment.
 
We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly results.
 
We could experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a number of factors, including our ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet our investment criteria, the interest rate payable and default rates on the debt securities we acquire, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets, and general economic conditions. These occurrences could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, the value of your investment in us and our ability to pay distributions to you and our other shareholders.
 
Any unrealized losses we experience on our portfolio may be an indication of future realized losses, which could reduce our income available for distribution.
 
As a business development company, we are required to carry our investments at market value or, if no market value is ascertainable, at the fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. Decreases in the market values or fair values of our investments relative to amortized cost will be recorded as unrealized depreciation. Any unrealized losses in our loan portfolio could be an indication of a portfolio company’s inability to meet its repayment obligations to us with respect to the affected loans. This could result in realized losses in the future and ultimately in reductions of our income available for distribution in future periods. In addition, decreases in the market value or fair value of our investments will reduce our net asset value.  See “Determination of Net Asset Value.”

We are a non-diversified investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and therefore we are not limited with respect to the proportion of our assets that may be invested in securities of a single issuer.
 
We are classified as a non-diversified investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act, which means that we are not limited by the 1940 Act with respect to the proportion of our assets that we may invest in securities of a single issuer. To the extent that we assume large positions in the securities of a small number of issuers, or within a particular industry, our net asset value may fluctuate to a greater extent than that of a diversified investment company as a result of changes in the financial condition or the market’s assessment of the issuer. We may also be more susceptible to any single economic or regulatory occurrence than a diversified investment company. However, we are subject to the diversification requirements applicable to RICs under Subchapter M of the Code. See “Tax Matters.”
 
If we internalize our management functions, your interest in us could be diluted, we could incur other significant costs associated with being self-managed and may not be able to retain or replace key personnel, and we may have increased exposure to litigation as a result of internalizing our management functions.
 
We may internalize management functions provided by our Advisors. Our board of directors may decide in the future to acquire assets and personnel from our Advisors or their affiliates for consideration that would be negotiated at that time. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in retaining our Advisors’ key personnel in the event of a management internalization transaction. In the event we were to acquire either of our Advisors, we cannot be sure of the form or amount of consideration or other terms relating to any such acquisition, which could take many forms, including cash payments, promissory notes and/or shares of our stock. The payment of such consideration could reduce our net investment income.
 
We cannot reasonably estimate the amount of fees to our Advisors that we would avoid paying, and the costs we would incur, if we acquired these entities, or acquired assets and personnel from these entities. If the expenses we assume as a result of management internalization are higher than the expenses we avoid paying to our Advisors, our net investment income would be lower than it otherwise would have been had we not acquired these entities, or acquired assets and personnel from these entities.
 
Additionally, if we internalize our management functions, we could have difficulty integrating these functions. Currently, the officers and associates of our administrator and related parties and contracting parties with our administrator perform general and administrative functions, including accounting and financial reporting. We may fail to properly identify the appropriate mix of personnel and capital needs to operate as a stand-alone entity. An inability to manage an internalization transaction effectively could result in our incurring additional costs and divert our management’s attention from effectively managing our portfolio or our operations.
 
In recent years, management internalization transactions have been the subject of shareholder litigation. Shareholder litigation can be costly and time-consuming, and there can be no assurance that any litigation expenses we might incur would not be significant or that the outcome of litigation would be favorable to us. Any amounts we are required to expend defending any such litigation will reduce our net investment income.
 
Risks related to our Advisors and their respective affiliates
 
The Advisors have limited experience managing a business development company.
 
Our Advisors have only two years of experience managing a vehicle regulated as a business development company and may not be able to continue to operate our business successfully or achieve our investment objective. As a result, an investment in our shares of common stock may entail more risk than the shares of common stock of a comparable company with a substantial operating history.
 
The 1940 Act and the Code impose numerous constraints on the operations of business development companies and RICs that do not apply to the other types of investment vehicles previously managed by the Advisors. For example, under the 1940 Act, business development companies are generally required to invest at least 70% of their total assets primarily in securities of qualifying U.S. private or thinly traded companies. Moreover, qualification for RIC tax treatment under subchapter M of the Code requires satisfaction of source-of-income, asset diversification and other requirements. The failure to comply with these provisions in a timely manner could prevent us from qualifying as a business development company or RIC or could force us to pay unexpected taxes and penalties, which could be material. The Advisors’ lack of experience in managing a portfolio of assets under such constraints may hinder their ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and, as a result, achieve our investment objective.
 
 
18

 
 
The Advisors and their respective affiliates, including our officers and some of our directors, may face conflicts of interest caused by compensation arrangements with us and our affiliates, which could result in increased risk-taking by us.
 
The Advisors and their respective affiliates will receive substantial fees from us in return for their services, and these fees could influence the advice provided to us. Generally, the more equity we sell in public offerings and the greater the risk assumed by us with respect to our investments, the greater the potential for growth in our assets and profits (and, correlatively, the fees payable by us to the Managing Dealer and the Advisors). These compensation arrangements could affect our Advisors’ or their respective affiliates’ judgment with respect to public offerings of equity and investments made by us, which allow the Managing Dealer to earn additional marketing support fees and the Advisors to earn increased asset management fees.
 
The time and resources that individuals associated with the Advisors devote to us may be diverted, and we may face additional competition due to the fact that neither CNL nor KKR is prohibited from raising money for or managing another entity that makes the same types of investments that we target.
 
The Advisors currently manage other investment entities and are not prohibited from raising money for and managing future investment entities that make the same types of investments as those we target. As a result, the time and resources that our Advisors devote to us may be diverted, and during times of intense activity in other programs they may devote less time and resources to our business than is necessary or appropriate. In addition, we may compete with any such investment entity for the same investors and investment opportunities.
 
The Advisors will experience conflicts of interest in connection with the management of our business affairs.
 
Our Advisors will experience conflicts of interest in connection with the management of our business affairs, relating to the allocation of investment opportunities by the Advisors and its affiliates; compensation to the Advisors; services that may be provided by the Advisors and its affiliates to issuers in which we invest; investments by us and other clients of the Advisors, subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act; the formation of additional investment funds by the Advisors; differing recommendations given by the Advisors to us versus other clients; the Advisors’ use of information gained from issuers in our portfolio to investments by other clients, subject to applicable law; and restrictions on the Advisors’ use of “inside information” with respect to potential investments by us.
 
The Advisors have incentives to favor their respective other accounts and clients over us, which may result in conflicts of interest that could be harmful to us.
 
Because our Advisors manage assets for other investment companies, pooled investment vehicles and/or other accounts (including institutional clients, pension plans and certain high net worth individuals), certain conflicts of interest are present.  For instance, an Advisor may receive fees from certain accounts that are higher than the fees received by the Advisor from us, or receive a performance-based fee on certain accounts.  In those instances, a portfolio manager for the Advisor has an incentive to favor the higher and/or performance-based fee accounts over us. In addition, a conflict of interest exists to the extent an Advisor has proprietary investments in certain accounts, where its portfolio managers or other employees have personal investments in certain accounts or when certain accounts are investment options in the Advisor’s employee benefit plans. The Advisor has an incentive to favor these accounts over us.
 
An Advisor’s actions on behalf of its other accounts and clients may be adverse to us and our investments and harmful to us.
 
Each of our Advisors manages assets for accounts other than us, including private funds (for purposes of this section, “Advisor Funds”). Actions taken by an Advisor on behalf of its Advisor Funds may be adverse to us and our investments which could harm our performance.  For example, we may invest in the same credit obligations as other Advisor Funds, although, to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, our investments may include different obligations of the same issuer.  Decisions made with respect to the securities held by one Advisor Fund may cause (or have the potential to cause) harm to the different class of securities of the issuer held by other Advisor Funds (including us).  As a further example, an Advisor may manage accounts that engage in short sales of (or otherwise take short positions in) securities or other instruments of the type in which we invest, which could harm our performance for the benefit of the accounts taking short positions, if such short positions cause the market value of the securities to fall.
 
Our Advisors will face restrictions on their use of inside information about existing or potential investments that they acquire through their relationships with other advisory clients, and those restrictions may limit the freedom of our Advisors to enter into or exit from investments for us, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
 
The members, officers, directors, employees, principals or affiliates of our Advisors may come into possession of material, non-public information.  The possession of such information may limit the ability of our Advisors to buy or sell a security or otherwise to participate in an investment opportunity.  In certain circumstances, employees of our Advisors may serve as board
 
 
19

 
 
members or in other capacities for portfolio or potential portfolio companies, which could restrict our ability to trade in the securities of such companies.  For example, if personnel of an Advisor come into possession of material non-public information with respect to our investments, such personnel will be restricted by our Advisor’s information-sharing policies and procedures or by law or contract from sharing such information with our management team, even where the disclosure of such information would be in our best interests or would otherwise influence decisions taken by the members of the management team with respect to that investment.  This conflict and these procedures and practices may limit the freedom of our Advisors to enter into or exit from potentially profitable investments for us which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to fully leverage the resources and industry expertise of our Advisors’ other businesses.  Additionally, there may be circumstances in which one or more individuals associated with and Advisor will be precluded from providing services to us because of certain confidential information available to those individuals or to other parts of the Advisor.
 
We may be obligated to pay our Advisors incentive fees even if we incur a net loss due to a decline in the value of our portfolio.
 
Our Investment Advisory Agreement entitles CNL to receive an incentive fee based on our net investment income regardless of any capital losses. In such case, we may be required to pay CNL an incentive fee for a fiscal quarter even if there is a decline in the value of our portfolio or if we incur a net loss for that quarter. CNL will pay 50% of any such incentive fee to KKR.
 
Any incentive fee payable by us that relates to our net investment income may be computed and paid on income that may include interest that has been accrued but not yet received. If a portfolio company defaults on a loan that is structured to provide accrued interest income, it is possible that accrued interest income previously included in the calculation of the incentive fee will become uncollectible. Our Advisors are not obligated to reimburse us for any part of the incentive fee they received that was based on accrued interest income that we never received as a result of a subsequent default, and such circumstances would result in our paying a subordinated incentive fee on income we never receive.
 
For federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income in some circumstances in which we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash and to make distributions with respect to such income to maintain our status as a RIC. Under such circumstances, we may have difficulty meeting the annual distribution requirement necessary to maintain RIC tax treatment under the Code. This difficulty in making the required distribution may be amplified to the extent that we are required to pay an incentive fee with respect to such accrued income. As a result, we may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital, or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax. For additional discussion regarding the tax implications of being a RIC, see “Tax Matters.”
 
Our incentive fee may induce our Advisors to make speculative investments.
 
The incentive fee payable by us to CNL (50% of which will be paid to KKR) may create an incentive for our Advisors to make investments on our behalf that are risky or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangements. The way in which the incentive fee is determined may encourage our Advisors to use leverage to increase the return on our investments.
 
In addition, the fact that our base management fee— a portion of which is paid to KKR —is payable based upon our gross assets (which includes any borrowings for investment purposes, any unrealized depreciation or appreciation on the TRS and any cash collateral on deposit pursuant to the terms of the TRS) may encourage our Advisors to use leverage to make additional investments.  Under certain circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor holders of our common stock. Such a practice could result in our investing in more speculative securities than would otherwise be the case, which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during cyclical economic downturns.
 
Our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates will be restricted.
 
We are prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with certain of our affiliates without the prior approval of a majority of the independent directors and, in some cases, the SEC. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding voting securities will be our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act, and we will generally be prohibited from buying or selling any securities from or to such affiliate, absent the prior approval of our board of directors and, in some cases, the SEC. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain “joint” transactions with certain of our affiliates, which in certain circumstances could include investments in the same portfolio company (whether at the same or different times to the extent the transaction involves jointness), without prior approval of our board of directors and, in some cases, the SEC. If a person acquires more than 25% of our voting securities, we will be prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such person or certain of that person’s affiliates, or entering into prohibited joint transactions with such persons, absent the prior approval of the SEC. Similar restrictions limit our ability to transact business with our officers or directors or their affiliates. The SEC has interpreted the business development company regulations governing transactions with affiliates to prohibit certain joint transactions involving entities that share a common

investment adviser. As a result of these restrictions, we may be prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to any portfolio company that is controlled by a fund managed by either of our Advisors or their respective affiliates without the prior approval of the SEC, which may limit the scope of investment opportunities that would otherwise be available to us.
 
We may, however, invest alongside our Advisors’ and their respective affiliates’ other clients, including other entities they manage, which we refer to as affiliates’ other clients, in certain circumstances where doing so is consistent with applicable law and SEC staff interpretations and guidance. We may also invest alongside the other clients of our Advisors, as otherwise permissible under regulatory guidance, applicable regulations and the Advisors’ allocation policies. It is our policy to base our board of directors’ determinations as to the amount of capital available for investment on such factors as: the amount of cash on-hand, existing commitments and reserves the targeted leverage level, the targeted asset mix and diversification requirements and other investment policies and restrictions set by our board of directors or imposed by applicable laws, rules, regulations or interpretations. However, we can offer no assurance that investment opportunities will be allocated to us fairly or equitably in the short-term or over time.
 
In situations where co-investment with affiliates’ other clients is not permitted under the 1940 Act and related rules, existing or future staff guidance, or the terms and conditions of exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC (as discussed below), our Advisors will need to decide which client or clients will proceed with the investment. Generally, we will not have an entitlement to make a co-investment in these circumstances and, to the extent that another client elects to proceed with the investment, we will not be permitted to participate. Moreover, except in certain circumstances, we are unable to invest in any issuer in which an affiliates’ other client holds a controlling interest.
 
We and our Advisors applied for exemptive relief from the SEC under the 1940 Act to allow us additional latitude to co-invest alongside our Advisors’ and their respective affiliates. On May 21, 2013, the SEC issued a final order granting the requested exemptive relief. The exemptive relief permits us to participate in certain transactions originated by the Advisors or their respective affiliates. However, affiliates of our Advisors whose primary business includes the origination of investments may engage in investment advisory businesses with client accounts that compete with us, and those affiliates have no obligation to make their originated investment opportunities available to our Advisors or to us.
 
We may make investments that could give rise to a conflict of interest.
 
We do not expect to invest in, or hold securities of, companies that are controlled by affiliates’ other clients. However, an affiliates’ other clients may invest in, and gain control over, one of our portfolio companies. If an affiliates’ other client, or clients, gains control over one of our portfolio companies, it may create conflicts of interest and may subject us to certain restrictions under the 1940 Act. As a result of these conflicts and restrictions our Advisors may be unable to implement our investment strategies as effectively as they could have in the absence of such conflicts or restrictions. For example, as a result of a conflict or restriction, our Advisors may be unable to engage in certain transactions that they would otherwise pursue. In order to avoid these conflicts and restrictions, our Advisors may choose to exit these investments prematurely and, as a result, we would forego any positive returns associated with such investments. In addition, to the extent that an affiliates’ other client holds a different class of securities than we as a result of such transactions, our interests may not be aligned.
 
We plan to forego any benefit that could result from investing in companies controlled by affiliates’ other clients.
 
We do not expect to invest in, or hold securities of, companies that are controlled by affiliates’ other clients. We do not expect to pursue or hold investments in these companies even if our Advisors determine that these investments meet our investment objective and strategies. As a result, we will forgo the opportunity to receive any positive returns associated with investing in companies controlled by affiliates’ other clients.
 
We are not managed by KKR & Co. or CNL Financial Group, but rather subsidiaries of both and may not replicate the success of those entities.
 
We are managed by our Advisors and not by CNL Financial Group or KKR & Co. Our performance may be lower or higher than the performance of other entities managed by CNL Financial Group or KKR & Co. or their affiliates and their past performance is no guarantee of our future results.

Risks related to business development companies
 
The requirement that we invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets could preclude us from investing in accordance with our current business strategy; conversely, the failure to invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets could result in our failure to maintain our status as a business development company.
 
As a business development company, the 1940 Act prohibits us from acquiring any assets other than certain qualifying assets unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such acquisition, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets. Therefore, we may be precluded from investing in what we believe are attractive investments if such investments are not qualifying assets. Conversely, if we fail to invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could lose our status as a business development company, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and result of operations. Similarly, these rules could prevent us from making additional investments in existing portfolio companies, which could result in the dilution of our position, or could require us to dispose of investments at an inopportune time to comply with the 1940 Act. If we were forced to sell non-qualifying investments in the portfolio for compliance purposes, the proceeds from such sale could be significantly less than the current value of such investments.
 
Failure to maintain our status as a business development company would reduce our operating flexibility.
 
If we do not remain a business development company, we might be regulated as a closed-end investment company under the 1940 Act, which would subject us to substantially more regulatory restrictions and correspondingly decrease our operating flexibility.
 
Regulations governing our operation as a business development company and RIC will affect our ability to raise capital and the way in which we raise additional capital or borrow for investment purposes, which may have a negative effect on our growth. As a business development company, the necessity of raising additional capital may expose us to risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage.
 
As a result of the annual distribution requirement to qualify as a RIC, we may need to access the capital markets periodically to raise cash to fund new investments in portfolio companies. We may issue “senior securities,” including borrowing money from banks or other financial institutions only in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after such incurrence or issuance. If we issue senior securities, we are exposed to typical risks associated with leverage, including an increased risk of loss. Our ability to issue different types of securities is also limited. Compliance with these requirements may unfavorably limit our investment opportunities and reduce our ability in comparison to other companies to profit from favorable spreads between the rates at which we can borrow and the rates at which we can lend. Therefore, we intend to continuously issue equity securities, which may lead to shareholder dilution.
 
We may borrow for investment purposes. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy the asset coverage test, which would prohibit us from paying distributions and could prevent us from qualifying as a RIC, which would generally result in a corporate-level tax on any income and net gains. If we cannot satisfy the asset coverage test, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments and, depending on the nature of our debt financing, repay a portion of our indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous. Also, any amounts that we use to service our indebtedness would not be available for distributions to our common shareholders.
 
In addition, we anticipate that as market conditions permit, we may securitize our loans to generate cash for funding new investments. To securitize loans, we may create a wholly owned subsidiary, contribute a pool of loans to the subsidiary and have the subsidiary issue primarily investment grade debt securities to purchasers who we would expect to be willing to accept a substantially lower interest rate than the loans earn. We would retain all or a portion of the equity in the securitized pool of loans. Our retained equity would be exposed to any losses on the portfolio of loans before any of the debt securities would be exposed to such losses. Accordingly, if the pool of loans experienced a low level of losses due to defaults, we would earn an incremental amount of income on our retained equity but we would be exposed, up to the amount of equity we retained, to that proportion of any losses we would have experienced if we had continued to hold the loans in our portfolio.
 
If we cannot obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our ability to acquire investments and to expand our operations will be adversely affected.
 
The net proceeds from the sale of shares will be used for our investment opportunities, and, if necessary, the payment of operating expenses and the payment of various fees and expenses such as management fees, incentive fees and other fees. Any working capital reserves we maintain may not be sufficient for investment purposes, and we may require additional debt or equity financing to operate. Pursuant to tax rules that apply to us, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to our shareholders to maintain our RIC status. Accordingly, in the event that we need additional capital in the future for investments or for any other reason we may need to access
 
 
22

 
 
the capital markets periodically to issue debt or equity securities or borrow from financial institutions in order to obtain such additional capital. These sources of funding may not be available to us due to unfavorable economic conditions, which could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us. Consequently, if we cannot obtain further debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our ability to acquire additional investments and to expand our operations will be adversely affected. As a result, we would be less able to achieve portfolio diversification and our investment objective, which may negatively impact our results of operations and reduce our ability to make distributions to our shareholders.
 
Risks related to our investments
 
Our investments in portfolio companies may be risky, and we could lose all or part of our investment.
 
We pursue a strategy focused on investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors.
 
Senior Debt. When we invest in senior debt, we generally seek to take a security interest in the available assets of the portfolio company, including equity interests in any of its subsidiaries. There is a risk that the collateral securing our investments may decrease in value over time or lose its entire value, may be difficult to sell in a timely manner, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based upon the success of the business and market conditions, including as a result of the inability of the portfolio company to raise additional capital. Also, in some circumstances, our lien could be subordinated to claims of other creditors. In addition, deterioration in a portfolio company’s financial condition and prospects, including its inability to raise additional capital, may be accompanied by deterioration in the value of the collateral for the loan. Consequently, the fact that a loan is secured does not guarantee that we will receive principal and interest payments according to the loan’s terms, or at all, or that we will be able to collect on the loan should we be forced to enforce our remedies.
 
Subordinated Debt. Our subordinated debt investments are generally subordinated to senior debt and are generally unsecured. This may result in a heightened level of risk and volatility or a loss of principal, which could lead to the loss of the entire investment. These investments may involve additional risks that could adversely affect our investment returns. To the extent interest payments associated with such debt are deferred, such debt may be subject to greater fluctuations in valuations, and such debt could subject us and our shareholders to non-cash income. Since we will not receive any principal repayments prior to the maturity of some of our subordinated debt investments, such investments will be of greater risk than amortizing loans.
 
Equity Investments. We expect to make selected equity investments. In addition, when we invest in senior and subordinated debt, we may acquire warrants or options to purchase equity securities or benefit from other types of equity participation. Our goal is ultimately to dispose of these equity interests and realize gains upon our disposition of such interests. However, the equity interests we receive may not appreciate in value and, in fact, may decline in value. Accordingly, we may not be able to realize gains from our equity interests, and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience.
 
Most debt securities in which we invest will not be rated by any rating agency and, if they were rated, they would be rated as below investment grade quality. Debt securities rated below investment grade quality are generally regarded as having predominantly speculative characteristics and may carry a greater risk with respect to a borrower’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal.
 
To the extent original issue discount constitutes a portion of our income, we will be exposed to risks associated with the deferred receipt of cash representing such income.
 
Our investments may include original issue discount instruments. To the extent original issue discount constitutes a portion of our income, we will be exposed to typical risks associated with such income being required to be included in taxable and accounting income prior to receipt of cash, including the following:
 
Original issue discount instruments may have unreliable valuations because the accruals require judgments about collectability.
 
Original issue discount instruments may create heightened credit risks because the inducement to trade higher rates for the deferral of cash payments typically represents, to some extent, speculation on the part of the borrower.
 
For accounting purposes, cash distributions to shareholders representing original issue discount income do not come from paid-in capital, although they may be paid from the offering proceeds. Thus, although a distribution of original issue discount income comes from the cash invested by the shareholders, the 1940 Act does not require that shareholders be given notice of this fact.
 
 
23

 
 
In the case of payment-in-kind, or “PIK,” “toggle” debt, the PIK election has the simultaneous effects of increasing the investment income, thus increasing the potential for realizing incentive fees.
 
Original issue discount creates risk of non-refundable cash payments to the Advisors based on non-cash accruals that may never be realized.
 
Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, our investments in such companies.
 
We pursue a strategy focused on investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors. Our portfolio companies may have, or may be permitted to incur, other debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, the debt in which we invest. By their terms, such debt instruments may entitle the holders to receive payment of interest or principal on or before the dates on which we are entitled to receive payments with respect to the debt instruments in which we invest. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company, holders of debt instruments ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before we receive any distribution. After repaying such senior creditors, such portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use for repaying its obligation to us. In the case of debt ranking equally with debt instruments in which we invest, we would have to share on an equal basis any distributions with other creditors holding such debt in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of the relevant portfolio company.
 
Subordinated liens on collateral securing debt that we will make to our portfolio companies may be subject to control by senior creditors with first priority liens. If there is a default, the value of the collateral may not be sufficient to repay in full both the first priority creditors and us.
 
Certain debt investments that we make in portfolio companies will be secured on a second priority basis by the same collateral securing senior debt of such companies. The first priority liens on the collateral will secure the portfolio company’s obligations under any outstanding senior debt and may secure certain other future debt that may be permitted to be incurred by the portfolio company under the agreements governing the debt. The holders of obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral will generally control the liquidation of and be entitled to receive proceeds from any realization of the collateral to repay their obligations in full before us. In addition, the value of the collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from the sale or sales of all of the collateral would be sufficient to satisfy the debt obligations secured by the second priority liens after payment in full of all obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral. If such proceeds are not sufficient to repay amounts outstanding under the debt obligations secured by the second priority liens, then we, to the extent not repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the collateral, will only have an unsecured claim against the portfolio company’s remaining assets, if any.
 
We may also make unsecured debt investments in portfolio companies, meaning that such investments will not benefit from any interest in collateral of such companies. Liens on such portfolio companies’ collateral, if any, will secure the portfolio company’s obligations under its outstanding secured debt and may secure certain future debt that is permitted to be incurred by the portfolio company under its secured debt agreements. The holders of obligations secured by such liens will generally control the liquidation of, and be entitled to receive proceeds from, any realization of such collateral to repay their obligations in full before us. In addition, the value of such collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from sales of such collateral would be sufficient to satisfy our unsecured debt obligations after payment in full of all secured debt obligations. If such proceeds were not sufficient to repay the outstanding secured debt obligations, then our unsecured claims would rank equally with the unpaid portion of such secured creditors’ claims against the portfolio company’s remaining assets, if any.
 
The rights we may have with respect to the collateral securing the debt investments we make in our portfolio companies with senior debt outstanding may also be limited pursuant to the terms of one or more inter-creditor agreements that we enter into with the holders of senior debt. Under such an inter-creditor agreement, at any time that obligations that have the benefit of the first priority liens are outstanding, any of the following actions that may be taken in respect of the collateral will be at the direction of the holders of the obligations secured by the first priority liens: the ability to cause the commencement of enforcement proceedings against the collateral; the ability to control the conduct of such proceedings; the approval of amendments to collateral documents; releases of liens on the collateral; and waivers of past defaults under collateral documents. We may not have the ability to control or direct such actions, even if our rights are adversely affected.
 
 
24

 
 
There may be circumstances where our debt investments could be subordinated to claims of other creditors or we could be subject to lender liability claims.
 
Although we generally structure certain of our investments as senior debt, if one of our portfolio companies were to go bankrupt, depending on the facts and circumstances, including the extent to which we actually provided managerial assistance to that portfolio company or a representative of us or the Advisors sat on the board of directors of such portfolio company, a bankruptcy court might re-characterize our debt investment and subordinate all or a portion of our claim to that of other creditors. In situations where a bankruptcy carries a high degree of political significance, our legal rights may be subordinated to other creditors.
 
In addition, lenders in certain cases can be subject to lender liability claims for actions taken by them when they become too involved in the borrower’s business or exercise control over a borrower. It is possible that we could become subject to a lender’s liability claim, including as a result of actions taken if we render significant managerial assistance to, or exercise control or influence over the board of directors of, the borrower.
 
We generally will not control the business operations of our portfolio companies and, due to the illiquid nature of our holdings in our portfolio companies, may not be able to dispose of our interest in our portfolio companies.
 
We do not expect to control most of our portfolio companies, although we may have board representation or board observation rights, and our debt agreements may impose certain restrictive covenants on our borrowers. As a result, we are subject to the risk that a portfolio company in which we invest may make business decisions with which we disagree and the management of such company, as representatives of the holders of their common equity, may take risks or otherwise act in ways that do not serve our interests as debt investors. Due to the lack of liquidity for our investments in non-traded companies, we may not be able to dispose of our interests in our portfolio companies as readily as we would like or at an appropriate valuation. As a result, a portfolio company may make decisions that could decrease the value of our portfolio holdings.
 
We are exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates.
 
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Because we use debt to finance investments, our net investment income depends, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest those funds. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. In periods of rising interest rates when we have debt outstanding, our cost of funds will increase, which could reduce our net investment income.
 
In addition, interest rates have recently been at or near historic lows. In the event of a significant rising interest rate environment, our portfolio companies with adjustable-rate loans could see their payments increase and there may be a significant increase in the number of our portfolio companies who are unable or unwilling to pay interest and repay their loans. Investments in companies with adjustable-rate loans may also decline in value in response to rising interest rates if the rates at which they pay interest do not rise as much, or as quickly, as market interest rates in general. Similarly, during periods of rising interest rates, our investments with fixed rates may decline in value because the fixed coupon rate is below market yield.
 
We may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to limit our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent such activities are not prohibited by the 1940 Act. These activities may limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the hedged portfolio. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
International investments create additional risks.
 
We have made, and expect to continue to make, investments in portfolio companies that are domiciled outside of the United States. We anticipate that up to 30% of our investments may be in these types of assets. Our investments in foreign portfolio companies are deemed “non-qualifying assets”, which means, as required by the 1940 Act, they may not constitute more than 30% of our total assets at the time of our acquisition of any asset, after giving effect to the acquisition.  Notwithstanding the limitation on our ownership of foreign portfolio companies, such investments subject us to many of the same risks as our domestic investments, as well as certain additional risks, including the following:
 
foreign governmental laws, rules and policies, including those restricting the ownership of assets in the foreign country or the repatriation of profits from the foreign country to the United States;
 
foreign currency devaluations that reduce the value of and returns on our foreign investments;
 
 
 
25

 
 
adverse changes in the availability, cost and terms of investments due to the varying economic policies of a foreign country in which we invest;
 
adverse changes in tax rates, the tax treatment of transaction structures and other changes in operating expenses of a particular foreign country in which we invest;
 
the assessment of foreign-country taxes (including withholding taxes, transfer taxes and value added taxes, any or all of which could be significant) on income or gains from our investments in the foreign country;
 
adverse changes in foreign-country laws, including those relating to taxation, bankruptcy and ownership of assets;
 
changes that adversely affect the social, political and/or economic stability of a foreign country in which we invest;
 
high inflation in the foreign countries in which we invest, which could increase the costs to us of investing in those countries
 
deflationary periods in the foreign countries in which we invest, which could reduce demand for our assets in those countries and diminish the value of such investments and the related investment returns to us; and
 
legal and logistical barriers in the foreign countries in which we invest that materially and adversely limit our ability to enforce our contractual rights with respect to those investments.
 
In addition we may make investments in countries whose governments or economies may prove unstable. Certain of the countries in which we may invest may have political, economic and legal systems that are unpredictable, unreliable or otherwise inadequate with respect to the implementation, interpretation and enforcement of laws protecting asset ownership and economic interests. In some of the countries in which we may invest, there may be a risk of nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, which may have an adverse effect on our portfolio companies in those countries and the rates of return we are able to achieve on such investments. We may also lose the total value of any investment which is nationalized, expropriated or confiscated.  The financial results and investment opportunities available to us, particularly in developing countries and emerging markets, may be materially and adversely affected by any or all of these political, economic and legal risks.
 
We may acquire various structured financial instruments for purposes of “hedging” or reducing our risks, which may be costly and ineffective and could reduce our cash available for distribution to our shareholders.
 
We may seek to hedge against interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations and credit risk by using structured financial instruments such as futures, options, swaps and forward contracts, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. Use of structured financial instruments for hedging purposes may present significant risks, including the risk of loss of the amounts invested. Defaults by the other party to a hedging transaction can result in losses in the hedging transaction. Hedging activities also involve the risk of an imperfect correlation between the hedging instrument and the asset being hedged, which could result in losses both on the hedging transaction and on the instrument being hedged. Use of hedging activities may not prevent significant losses and could increase our losses. Further, hedging transactions may reduce cash available to pay distributions to our shareholders.
 
The TRS and any other derivative transactions into which we may enter expose us to certain risks, including market risk, liquidity risk and other risks associated with the use of leverage.
 
As of November 2012, our wholly owned special purpose financing subsidiary, Halifax Funding, became a party to a total return swap arrangement, or TRS, with The Bank of Nova Scotia, referred to as the counterparty. Pursuant to the TRS, we periodically receive any income generated by TRS reference assets underlying the TRS and collected by the counterparty.  We also receive the realized gains from the liquidation of TRS reference assets over the life of the TRS.  Correspondingly, if there is a net realized loss from the liquidation of TRS reference assets over the life of the TRS, we are required to periodically pay the counterparty the amount of such net realized losses. Pursuant to the terms of the TRS arrangement, we must pay the counterparty a series of floating rate periodic payments over the life of the TRS.  These periodic payments are based on the settled notional amounts of the underlying TRS reference assets.
 
The TRS effectively adds leverage to our portfolio by providing us investment and economic exposure to a security or portfolio of securities without our owning, investing directly in, or taking physical custody of such security or portfolio of securities.
 
The TRS is subject to market risk, liquidity risk and risk of imperfect correlation between the value of the TRS and the TRS reference assets underlying the TRS.  In addition, because the TRS is a form of synthetic leverage, it is subject to risks associated with the use of leverage. Moreover, we may incur certain costs in connection with the TRS that could in the aggregate be significant.
 
The TRS is subject to the risk that the counterparty will default on its payment obligations under the TRS arrangement or that one party will otherwise not be able to meet its contractual obligations to the other. Under the TRS, we make periodic payments based on a variable interest rate and have to post collateral to secure our obligations to the counterparty.  In addition, by making periodic
 
 
26

 
 
payments based on a variable interest rate, we bear the risk of depreciation with respect to the value of the TRS reference assets underlying the TRS and may be required under the terms of the TRS to post additional collateral on a dollar-for-dollar basis in the event the value of the TRS reference assets underlying the TRS depreciates in a material amount relative to any cash collateral previously posted by us.
 
If the counterparty chooses to exercise its termination rights under the TRS, it is possible that, because of adverse market conditions existing at the time of such termination, we will owe more to the counterparty (or will be entitled to receive less from the counterparty) than we would otherwise have if we controlled the timing of such termination.
 
For purposes of determining our compliance with the asset coverage ratio test applicable to us as a business development company, we will treat the outstanding notional amount of the TRS and any further total return swap to which we are a party, less the actual amount of any cash collateral posted by us under the TRS and such further total return swap, as a senior security for the life of that instrument.  Further, for purposes of determining our compliance with the 70% qualifying assets requirement of Section 55(a) under the 1940 Act, we will treat each loan or bond underlying the TRS and any further total return swap to which we are a party as a qualifying asset if the obligor on such loan is an eligible portfolio company and as a non-qualifying asset if the obligor is not an eligible portfolio company.
 
Economic recessions or downturns could impair our portfolio companies and harm our operating results.
 
Many of our portfolio companies are susceptible to economic slowdowns or recessions and may be unable to repay our debt investments during these periods. Therefore, our non-performing assets may increase, and the value of our portfolio is likely to decrease during these periods. Adverse economic conditions may also decrease the value of any collateral securing our senior or second lien loans. A severe recession may further decrease the value of such collateral and result in losses of value in our portfolio and a decrease in our revenues, net income, assets and net worth. Unfavorable economic conditions also could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us on terms we deem acceptable. These events could prevent us from increasing investments and harm our operating results.
 
Since the third quarter of 2007, global credit and other financial markets have suffered substantial stress, volatility, illiquidity and disruption. The financial services sector was negatively impacted by significant write-offs as the value of the assets held by financial firms declined, impairing their capital positions and abilities to lend and invest. Such value declines were exacerbated by widespread forced liquidations. Such forced liquidations impacted many investors and investment vehicles, leading to a decline in the supply of capital for investment and depressed pricing levels for many assets. These events significantly diminished overall confidence in the debt and equity markets, engendered unprecedented declines in the values of certain assets and caused extreme economic uncertainty.
 
A prolonged period of market illiquidity may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, unfavorable economic conditions, including rising interest rates, may also increase our funding costs, limit our access to capital markets or negatively impact our ability to obtain financing, particularly from the debt markets. Future financial market uncertainty could also lead to further financial market disruptions and could further impact our ability to obtain financing. These events could limit our investment originations, limit our ability to grow and negatively impact our operating results.
 
Defaults by our portfolio companies will harm our operating results.
 
A portfolio company’s failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders could lead to defaults and, potentially, termination of its debt financing and foreclosure on its secured assets, which could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize a portfolio company’s ability to meet its obligations under the debt or equity securities that we hold. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms, which may include the waiver of certain financial covenants, with a defaulting portfolio company.
 
An investment strategy focused primarily on privately held companies presents certain challenges, including the lack of available information about these companies.
 
We invest primarily in privately held companies. Investments in private companies pose certain incremental risks as compared to investments in public companies including that they:
 
have reduced access to the capital markets, resulting in diminished capital resources and ability to withstand financial distress;
 
may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet their obligations under their debt securities that we hold, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of any collateral and a reduction in the likelihood of us realizing any guarantees we may have obtained in connection with our investment;
 
may have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors’ actions and changing market conditions, as well as general economic downturns;
 
 
27

 
 
are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these persons could have a material adverse impact on our portfolio company and, in turn, on us; and
 
generally have less predictable operating results, may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence, and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. In addition, our executive officers, directors and members of the Advisors’ management may, in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from our investments in the portfolio companies.
 
In addition, investments in private companies tend to be less liquid. The securities of private companies are not publicly traded or actively traded on the secondary market and are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional investors. These over-the-counter secondary markets may be inactive during an economic downturn or a credit crisis. In addition, the securities in these companies will be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or will otherwise be less liquid than publicly traded securities. If there is no readily available market for these investments, we are required to carry these investments at fair value as determined by our board of directors. As a result, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we had previously recorded these investments. We may also face other restrictions on our ability to liquidate an investment in a portfolio company to the extent that we, our Advisors or any of their respective affiliates have material nonpublic information regarding such portfolio company or where the sale would be an impermissible joint transaction. The reduced liquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to dispose of them at a favorable price, and, as a result, we may suffer losses.
 
Finally, little public information generally exists about private companies and these companies may not have third-party credit ratings or audited financial statements. We must therefore rely on the ability of our Advisors to obtain adequate information through due diligence to evaluate the creditworthiness and potential returns from investing in these companies. Additionally, these companies and their financial information will not generally be subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other rules that govern public companies. If we are unable to uncover all material information about these companies, we may not make a fully informed investment decision, and we may lose money on our investments.
 
We may be subject to lender liability judgments.
 
A number of U.S. judicial decisions have upheld judgments obtained by borrowers against lending institutions on the basis of various evolving legal theories, collectively termed “lender liability.” Generally, lender liability is founded on the premise that a lender has violated a duty (whether implied or contractual) of good faith, commercial reasonableness and fair dealing, or a similar duty owed to the borrower or has assumed an excessive degree of control over the borrower resulting in the creation of a fiduciary duty owed to the borrower or its other creditors or shareholders. Because of the nature of our investments in portfolio companies (including that, as a business development company, we may be required to provide managerial assistance to those portfolio companies), we may be subject to allegations of lender liability.
 
We may not have the funds or ability to make additional investments in our portfolio companies or to fund our unfunded commitments.
 
After our initial investment in a portfolio company, we may be called upon from time to time to provide additional funds to such company or have the opportunity to increase our investment through the exercise of a warrant or other right to purchase common stock. There is no assurance that we will make, or will have sufficient funds to make, follow-on investments. Even if we have sufficient capital to make a desired follow-on investment, we may elect not to make a follow-on investment because we may not want to increase our level of risk, we prefer other opportunities, we are limited in our ability to do so by compliance with business development company requirements, or we desire to maintain our RIC status. Our ability to make follow-on investments may also be limited by our Advisors’ allocation policies. Any decisions not to make a follow-on investment or any inability on our part to make such an investment may have a negative impact on a portfolio company in need of such an investment, may result in a missed opportunity for us to increase our participation in a successful operation or may reduce the expected return on the investment.
 
Prepayments of our debt investments by our portfolio companies could adversely impact our results of operations and reduce our return on equity.
 
We are subject to the risk that the investments we make in our portfolio companies may be repaid prior to maturity. When this occurs, we will generally reinvest these proceeds in temporary investments, pending their future investment in new portfolio companies. These temporary investments will typically have substantially lower yields than the debt being prepaid and we could experience significant delays in reinvesting these amounts. Any future investment in a new portfolio company may also be at lower yields than the debt that was repaid. As a result, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected if one or more of our portfolio companies elect to prepay amounts owed to us. Additionally, prepayments, net of prepayment fees, could negatively impact our return on equity.

The agreements governing each of our revolving credit facilities contain various covenants which, if not complied with, could accelerate repayment under the relevant facility, thereby materially and adversely affecting our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and our ability to pay distributions to our shareholders.
 
Each of our wholly owned, special purpose financing subsidiaries (CCT Funding, Halifax Funding and Paris Funding), is party to a revolving or term credit facility with one or more lenders.  We or either of our special purpose financing subsidiaries may become party to such facilities in the future. The agreements governing these facilities currently, and are likely to continue to, contain default provisions such as:
 
the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within three business days of when due;
 
borrowings under the facility exceeding the applicable advance rates;
 
the purchase by us or the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable, of certain ineligible assets;
 
the insolvency or bankruptcy of us or the relevant financing subsidiary;
 
the decline of our or the relevant financing subsidiary’s, as applicable, net asset value below a specified threshold; and
 
fraud or other illicit acts by us, KKR or CNL in our or their respective investment advisory capacities.
 
An event of default under the relevant facility may result, among other things, in the termination of the availability of further funds under the facility and an accelerated maturity date for all amounts outstanding under the facility. This could disrupt our business, reduce our revenues and, by delaying any dividends allowed to us under the facility until the lender has been paid in full, reduce our liquidity and cash flow and impair our ability to grow our business, make distribution payments to our shareholders and maintain our status as a RIC.
 
The agreements governing each facility would require us or the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable, to comply with certain operational covenants. These covenants may, for example, require us or the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable, to, among other things, maintain eligible assets with an aggregate equity value, net of borrowing balance, equal to or exceeding specified amounts under the facility. In addition, under the relevant facility, the occurrence of certain “Super-Collateralization Events” may result in an increase of the collateral equity value that we or the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable, is required to maintain. Super-Collateralization Events would include, among other things:
 
certain key employees ceasing to be directors, principals, officers or investment managers of KKR;
 
the bankruptcy or insolvency of KKR or CNL;
 
KKR or CNL ceasing to act as sub-advisor or advisor for us or CCT Funding;
 
our ceasing to act as the relevant financing subsidiary’s investment manager, becoming bankrupt or insolvent, defaulting on certain material agreements or failing to maintain a net asset value above a specified threshold; and
 
fraud or other illicit acts by us, KKR or CNL in our or their respective investment advisory capacities.
 
A decline in the value of assets owned by us or the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable or the occurrence of a Super-Collateralization Event under the relevant facility could result in our being required to retain, acquire or contribute to the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable, additional assets, which would likely disrupt our business and impact our ability to meet our investment objectives and pay distributions to our shareholders.
 
The failure to meet collateral requirements under the relevant facility or the occurrence of any other event of default that results in the termination of such facility may force us to liquidate positions at a time and/or at a price that is disadvantageous to us and could result in losses. In addition, upon the occurrence of an event of default under the relevant facility, the related lender would have the right to the assets pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under the facility and could sell such assets in order to satisfy amounts due under the facility.
 
Each borrowing under any facility will be subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. We cannot assure you that we or the relevant financing subsidiary, as applicable, will be able to borrow funds under the relevant facility at any particular time or at all. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a more detailed discussion of the terms of our credit facilities.

To the extent that we borrow money, the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested in us will be magnified and may increase the risk of investing in us. Borrowed money may also adversely affect the return on our assets, reduce cash available for distribution to our shareholders, and result in losses.
 
The use of borrowings, also known as leverage, increases the volatility of investments by magnifying the potential for gain or loss on invested equity capital. Since we use leverage to partially finance our investments, through borrowing from banks and other lenders, you will experience increased risks of investing in our common stock. If the value of our assets decreases, leveraging will cause net asset value to decline more sharply than it otherwise would if we had not borrowed and employed leverage. Similarly, any decrease in our income would cause net income to decline more sharply than it would have if we had not borrowed and employed leverage. Such a decline could negatively affect our ability to make distributions to our shareholders. In addition, our shareholders will bear the burden of any increase in our expenses as a result of our use of leverage, including interest expenses and any increase in the management or incentive fees payable to the Advisors.
 
The amount of leverage that we employ depends on our Advisors’ and our board of directors’ assessment of market and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing. There can be no assurance that leveraged financing will be available to us on favorable terms or at all. However, to the extent that we use leverage to finance our assets, our financing costs will reduce cash available for distributions to shareholders. Moreover, we may not be able to meet our financing obligations and, to the extent that we cannot, we risk the loss of some or all of our assets to liquidation or sale to satisfy the obligations. In such an event, we may be forced to sell assets at significantly depressed prices due to market conditions or otherwise, which may result in losses.
 
As a business development company, we are required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total borrowings and other senior securities, which include all of our borrowings and any preferred stock that we may issue in the future, of at least 200%. If this ratio declines below 200%, we cannot incur additional debt and could be required to sell a portion of our investments to repay some debt when it is disadvantageous to do so. This could have a material adverse effect on our operations, and we may not be able to make distributions.
 
As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, $25.34 million and $159.62 million, respectively, was borrowed and outstanding under our credit facility. As of December 31, 2012 the weighted average interest rate for all amounts borrowed and outstanding under the credit facility was 2.26%.
 
Illustration. The following table illustrates the effect of leverage on returns from an investment in our common stock assuming various annual returns, net of expenses. The calculated results in the table are hypothetical and actual returns may be higher or lower than those presented in the table. The calculated results are based on the following assumptions:
 
$741.67 million in income earning total assets at beginning of 2013 (i.e., assumed total assets for the purpose of this illustration is equal to investments at fair value as of December 31, 2012 and reduced by the amount of payables for investments purchased plus the TRS reference assets at fair value);
 
$159.62 million in senior securities from the credit facility outstanding for 2013;
 
$76.04 million in deemed senior securities from the TRS for 2013;
 
an unused credit facility commitment balance of $15.38 million for 2013 and a commitment fee of 0.50% on unused credit facility commitment balances;
 
$611.49 million in net assets attributable to common stock; and
 
a current effective interest rate of 2.239%, which includes the impact of the TRS, for 2013.
 
In order to compute the “corresponding return to shareholders,” the “assumed return on our portfolio (net of expenses)” is multiplied by the assumed total assets to obtain an assumed return to us. The accrued interest expense is calculated by adding (i) the product of the assumed current effective interest rate times the assumed debt outstanding, and (ii) the product of the commitment fee times the assumed unused credit facility commitment balance. The accrued interest expense as so calculated is then subtracted from the assumed return to us in order to determine the return available to shareholders. The return available to shareholders is then divided by the total amount of net assets attributable to common stock to determine the “corresponding return to shareholders.” The amortization of deferred credit facility financing costs is not considered in accrued interest expense; actual interest payments may be different.

The illustrative results in the table above indicate that an assumed -5.0% annual return on our earning assets in 2013 would hypothetically result in a -6.94% return to shareholders of our common stock. Likewise, an assumed 5.0% annual return on our earning assets in 2013 would hypothetically result in a 5.19% return to shareholders of our common stock. Finally, our portfolio must hypothetically earn an annual return of 0.8% in 2013 in order to cover annual interest payments on the assumed level of debt outstanding in 2013.
 
Risks related to an investment in our common stock
 
Investors will not know the purchase price per share at the time they submit their subscription agreements and could receive fewer shares of common stock than anticipated if our board of directors determines to increase the offering price to comply with the requirement that we avoid selling shares below net asset value.
 
The purchase price at which you purchase shares will be determined at each closing date to ensure that the sales price is equal to or greater than the then-current net asset value of our shares, after deducting selling commissions and marketing support fees. As a result, your purchase price may be higher than the prior subscription closing price per share, and therefore you may receive a smaller number of shares than if you had subscribed at the prior subscription closing price. See ”Determination of Net Asset Value.”
 
If we are unable to raise substantial funds in our ongoing, continuous “best efforts” offering, we will be limited in the number and type of investments we may make, and the value of your investment in us may be reduced in the event our assets under-perform.
 
Our continuous offering is being made on a best efforts basis, whereby our Managing Dealer and participating broker-dealers are only required to use their best efforts to sell our shares and have no firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares. To the extent that less than the maximum number of shares is subscribed for, the opportunity for diversification of our investments may be decreased and the returns achieved on those investments may be reduced as a result of allocating all of our expenses among a smaller capital base.
 
Our shares are not listed on an exchange or quoted through a quotation system and will not be listed for the foreseeable future, if ever. Therefore, our shareholders will have limited liquidity and may not receive a full return of invested capital upon selling their shares.
 
Our shares are illiquid investments for which there is not a secondary market nor is it expected that any such secondary market will develop in the future. On or before December 31, 2018, our board of directors must consider, but is not required to recommend, a liquidity event for our shareholders. A future liquidity event could include: (i) a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange; (ii) a merger or another transaction approved by our board of directors in which our shareholders will receive cash or shares of a listed company; or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of our assets either on a complete portfolio basis or individually followed by a liquidation. Certain types of liquidity events, such as a listing, would allow us to retain our investment portfolio intact while providing our shareholders with access to a trading market for their securities.
 
We do not know at this time what circumstances will exist in the future and therefore we do not know what factors our board of directors will consider in determining whether to pursue a liquidity event in the future.
 
Also, since a portion of the public offering price from the sale of shares in this offering will be used to pay expenses and fees, the full offering price paid by the shareholders will not be invested in portfolio companies. As a result, even if we do complete a liquidity event, you may not receive a return of all of your invested capital. If we do not successfully complete a liquidity event, liquidity for your shares will be limited to participation in our share repurchase program, which we have no obligation to maintain.
 
If our shares are listed on a national securities exchange or quoted through a quotation system, we cannot assure you a public trading market will develop or, if one develops, that such trading market can be sustained. Shares of companies offered in an initial public offering often trade at a discount to the initial offering price due to underwriting discounts and related offering expenses. Also, shares of closed-end investment companies and business development companies frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value. This characteristic of closed-end investment companies is separate and distinct from the risk that our net asset value per share of common stock may decline. We cannot predict whether our common stock, if listed, will trade at, above or below net asset value.
 
 
31

 
 
We intend, but are not required, to offer to repurchase your shares on a quarterly basis. As a result you will have limited opportunities to sell your shares and, to the extent you are able to sell your shares under the program, you may not be able to recover the amount of your investment in our shares.
 
We have adopted a share repurchase program to allow you to tender your shares to us on a quarterly basis at a price that is approximately equal to our net asset value as of the last business date of each relevant calendar quarter.  The share repurchase program includes numerous restrictions that limit your ability to sell your shares. We currently intend to limit the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares we can repurchase with the proceeds we receive from the issuance of shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of our board of directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the sale of our investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares. We limit repurchases in each quarter to 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters. To the extent that the number of shares put to us for repurchase exceeds the number of shares that we are able to purchase, we will repurchase shares on a pro rata basis, not on a first-come, first-served basis. Further, we will have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under federal law or Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency. These limits may prevent us from accommodating all repurchase requests made in any year. Our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program upon 30 days’ notice. We will notify our shareholders of such developments: (i) in our quarterly reports or (ii) by means of a separate mailing to you, accompanied by disclosure in a current or periodic report under the Exchange Act. In addition, under the quarterly share repurchase program, we have discretion to not repurchase shares, to suspend the program, and to cease repurchases. Further, the program has many limitations and should not be relied upon as a method to sell shares promptly and at a desired price.
 
The timing of our repurchase offers pursuant to our share repurchase program may be at a time that is disadvantageous to our shareholders.
 
When we make quarterly repurchase offers pursuant to the share repurchase program, we may offer to repurchase shares at a price that is lower than the price that you paid for shares in this offering. As a result, to the extent you paid an offering price that includes the related sales load and to the extent you have the ability to sell your shares pursuant to our share repurchase program, then the price at which you may sell shares, which will be at a price approximately equal to our net asset value on the last business day of the calendar quarter, may be lower than the amount you paid in connection with the purchase of shares in this offering.
 
Because our Managing Dealer is an affiliate of CNL, its due diligence review of us is not considered independent. The absence of an independent due diligence review increases the risks and uncertainty you face as a shareholder.
 
Our Managing Dealer, CNL Securities Corp., is an affiliate of CNL. As a result, its due diligence review and investigation of us and this prospectus cannot be considered to be an independent review. Therefore, you do not have the benefit of an independent review and investigation of this offering of the type normally performed by an unaffiliated, independent underwriter in an underwritten public securities offering. You should not rely on your own broker-dealer to make an independent review and investigation of the terms of this offering. Because you should not rely on your broker-dealer, you will not have the benefit of any independent review and evaluation of the terms of this offering by the Managing Dealer. In addition, we do not, and do not expect to, have research analysts reviewing our performance or our securities on an ongoing basis. Therefore, you will not have an independent review of our performance and the value of our common stock relative to other publicly traded companies.
 
We may be unable to invest a significant portion of the net proceeds of this offering on acceptable terms in an acceptable timeframe.
 
Delays in investing the net proceeds of this offering may impair our performance. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to identify investments that meet our investment objective or that any investment that we make will produce a positive return. We may be unable to invest the net proceeds of our offering on acceptable terms within the time period that we anticipate or at all, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.
 
Before making investments, we will invest the net proceeds of our public offering primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, repurchase agreements, and/or other high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment. This will produce returns that are significantly lower than the returns, which we expect to achieve when our portfolio is fully invested in securities meeting our investment objective. As a result, any distributions that we pay while our portfolio is not fully invested in securities meeting our investment objective may be lower than the distributions that we may be able to pay when our portfolio is fully invested in securities meeting our investment objective.

A shareholder’s interest in us will be diluted if we issue additional shares, which could reduce the overall value of an investment in us.
 
Our shareholders do not have preemptive rights to any shares we issue in the future. Our charter, which we refer to herein as the articles of incorporation, authorizes us to issue up to 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock. Pursuant to our articles of incorporation, a majority of our entire board of directors may amend our articles of incorporation to increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares of stock or the number of authorized shares of stock of any class or series without shareholder approval. After you purchase shares, our board may elect to sell additional shares in the future or issue equity interests in private offerings.  To the extent we issue additional equity interests at or below net asset value, after you purchase our shares, your percentage ownership interest in us may be diluted. In addition, depending upon the terms and pricing of any additional offerings and the value of our investments, you may also experience dilution in the book value and fair value of your shares.
 
Under the 1940 Act, we generally are prohibited from issuing or selling our common stock at a price below net asset value per share, which may be a disadvantage as compared with certain public companies. We may, however, sell our common stock, or warrants, options, or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the current net asset value of our common stock if our board of directors and independent directors determine that such sale is in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders, and our shareholders, including a majority of those shareholders that are not affiliated with us, approve such sale. In any such case, the price at which our securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price that, in the determination of our board of directors, closely approximates the fair value of such securities (less any distributing commission or discount). If we raise additional funds by issuing common stock or senior securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common stock, then the percentage ownership of our shareholders at that time will decrease and you will experience dilution.
 
Preferred stock could be issued with rights and preferences that would adversely affect holders of our common stock.
 
This offering does not include an offering of preferred stock. However, under the terms of our articles of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series without shareholder approval, which could potentially adversely affect the interests of existing shareholders.
 
Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law could deter takeover attempts.
 
Our bylaws exempt us from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, which significantly restricts the voting rights of control shares of a Maryland corporation acquired in a control share acquisition. If our bylaws were amended to repeal this exemption from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, that statute may make it more difficult for a third party to obtain control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating such a transaction. Although we do not presently intend to adopt such an amendment to our bylaws, there can be no assurance that we will not so amend our bylaws at some time in the future. We will not, however, amend our bylaws to make us subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act without our board of directors determining that doing so would not conflict with the 1940 Act and obtaining confirmation from the SEC that it does not object to that determination.
 
Additionally, our board of directors may, without shareholder action, authorize the issuance of shares of stock in one or more classes or series, including preferred stock. Our board of directors may also, without shareholder action, amend our articles of incorporation to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have authority to issue. These provisions may inhibit a change of control in circumstances that could give the holders of our common stock the opportunity to realize a premium over the value of our common stock.
 
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk.
 
The investments we make in accordance with our investment objective may result in a higher amount of risk than alternative investment options and includes volatility or loss of principal. Our investments in portfolio companies may be highly speculative and aggressive and, therefore, an investment in our common stock may not be suitable for someone with lower risk tolerance.
 
The net asset value of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.
 
The net asset value and liquidity, if any, of the market for shares of our common stock may be significantly affected by numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not be directly related to our operating performance. These factors include:
 
changes in the value of our portfolio of investments and derivative instruments;
   
changes in regulatory policies or tax guidelines, particularly with respect to RICs or business development companies;
 
 
33

 
 
loss of RIC or business development company status;
   
distributions that exceed our net investment income and net income as reported according to GAAP;
   
changes in earnings or variations in operating results;
   
changes in accounting guidelines governing valuation of our investments;
   
any shortfall in revenue or net income or any increase in losses from levels expected by investors;
   
departure of either of our Advisors or certain of their respective key personnel;
   
general economic trends and other external factors; and
   
loss of a major funding source.
 
The price that the investor pays for our shares may not reflect the current net asset value of our company at the time of his or her subscription.
 
If our net asset value increases above our net proceeds per share as stated in this prospectus, we will sell our shares at a higher price as necessary to ensure that shares are not sold at a net price, after deduction of selling commissions and marketing support fees, that is below our net asset value per share. Also we will file a supplement to the prospectus with the SEC, or amend our registration statement, if our net asset value per share: (i) declines more than 10% from the net asset value per share as of the effective date of this registration statement or (ii) increases to an amount that is greater than the net proceeds per share as stated in the prospectus. Therefore, the net proceeds per share, net of all sales load, from a new investor may be in excess of the then current net asset value per share.
 
In addition, if the net asset value per share were to decline below 97.5% of the public offering price, net of sales load, for ten continuous business days (for this purpose, any day on which the principal stock markets in the United States are open for business), then, unless and until our board of directors determines otherwise, we will voluntarily suspend selling shares in this offering until the net asset value per share is greater than 97.5% of the public offering price, net of sales load.
 
Federal income tax risks
 
We will be subject to corporate-level income tax if we are unable to maintain our qualification as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.
 
To maintain RIC tax treatment under the Code, we must meet the following minimum annual distribution, income source and asset diversification requirements. See “Tax Matters.”
 
The minimum annual distribution requirement for a RIC will be satisfied if we distribute to our shareholders on an annual basis at least 90% of our net ordinary taxable income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. In addition, a RIC may, in certain cases, satisfy the 90% distribution requirement by distributing dividends relating to a taxable year after the close of such taxable year under the “spillover dividend” provisions of subchapter M. We would be taxed on any retained income and/or gains, including any short-term capital gains or long-term capital gains. We must also satisfy an additional annual distribution requirement during each calendar year in order to avoid a 4% excise tax on the amount of the under-distribution. Because we use debt financing, we are subject to (i) an asset coverage ratio requirement under the 1940 Act and (ii) certain financial covenants under loan and credit agreements that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from making distributions necessary to satisfy the distribution requirements. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we could fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment, or could be required to retain a portion of our income or gains, and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.
 
The income source requirement will be satisfied if we obtain at least 90% of our annual income from dividends, interest, gains from the sale of stock or securities, or similar sources.
 
The asset diversification requirement will be satisfied if we meet certain asset diversification requirements at the end of each quarter of our taxable year. To satisfy this requirement, at least 50% of the value of our assets must consist of cash, cash equivalents (including receivables), U.S. Government securities, securities of other RICs, and other acceptable securities; and no more than 25% of the value of our assets can be invested in the securities, other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs, of one

issuer, of two or more issuers that are controlled, as determined under applicable Code rules, by us and that are engaged in the same or similar or related trades or businesses or of certain “qualified publicly traded partnerships.” Failure to meet these requirements may result in our having to dispose of certain investments quickly in order to prevent the loss of RIC status. Because most of our investments will be in private companies, and therefore will be relatively illiquid, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and could result in substantial losses.
 
If we fail to qualify for or maintain RIC tax treatment for any reason and are subject to corporate income tax, the resulting corporate taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of income available for distribution, and the amount of our distributions.
 
We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income.
 
For federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income in circumstances in which we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash. For example, if we hold debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as having original issue discount (such as debt instruments with PIK, secondary market purchase of debt securities at discount to par, interest or, in certain cases, increasing interest rates or debt instruments that were issued with warrants), we must include in income each year a portion of the original issue discount that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same taxable year. We may also have to include in income other amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as deferred loan origination fees that are paid after origination of the loan or are paid in non-cash compensation such as warrants or stock. Furthermore, we may invest in non-U.S. corporations (or other non-U.S. entities treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that could be treated under the Code and U.S. Treasury regulations as “passive foreign investment companies” and/or “controlled foreign corporations.” The rules relating to investment in these types of non-U.S. entities are designed to ensure that U.S. taxpayers are either, in effect, taxed currently (or on an accelerated basis with respect to corporate level events) or taxed at increased tax rates at distribution or disposition. In certain circumstances this could require us to recognize income where we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash.
 
A portion of our income may constitute original issue discount or other income required to be included in taxable income prior to receipt of cash. Further, we may elect to amortize market discounts and include such amounts in our taxable income in the current year, instead of upon disposition, as an election not to do so would limit our ability to deduct interest expenses for tax purposes. Because any original issue discount or other amounts accrued will be included in our investment company taxable income for the year of the accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our shareholders in order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement, even if we will not have received any corresponding cash amount. As a result, we may have difficulty meeting the annual distribution requirement necessary to maintain RIC tax treatment under the Code. We may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital, make a partial share distribution, or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, and choose not to make a qualifying share distribution, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.

COMPANY PROFILE
 
We are a non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company under the 1940 Act. Formed as a Maryland corporation on June 9, 2010, we are externally managed by CNL and KKR, which are collectively responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. Both of our Advisors are registered as investment advisers with the SEC. We elected to be treated, beginning with our first taxable year ending December 31, 2011, and intend to qualify annually as a RIC under the Code.
 
Our investment objective is to provide our shareholders with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We intend to meet our investment objective by investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors. As of the date of this prospectus, our invesment portfolio totaled $1.80 billion and consisted primarily of senior and subordinated debt. We anticipate that a substantial portion of our portfolio will continue to consist of senior and subordinated debt, which we believe offer opportunities for superior risk-adjusted returns and income generation. Our debt investments may take the form of corporate loans or bonds, may be secured or unsecured and may, in some cases, be accompanied by warrants, options or other forms of equity participation. We may separately purchase common or preferred equity interests in transactions. Our portfolio can be expected to include fixed-rate investments that generate absolute returns as well as floating-rate investments that provide protection in rising interest rate and inflationary environments.
 
We will seek to continue to build on the strong investment expertise and sourcing networks of our Advisors and adhere to an investment approach that emphasizes strong fundamental credit analysis and rigorous portfolio monitoring. We intend to continue to be disciplined in selecting investments and focus on those opportunities that we perceive offer favorable risk/reward characteristics and relative value. We believe the market for lending is currently characterized by significant demand for capital and that we will continue to have considerable opportunities as a provider of capital to achieve attractive pricing and terms on our investments. We are raising funds with the goal of serving our target market and continuing to capitalize on what we believe is a compelling and sustained market opportunity.
 
We are issuing only shares of our common stock in this offering and there are no classes of securities that are currently senior to the shares in which you are investing. Each share of common stock has equal rights to distributions, voting, liquidation, and conversion. Our common stock is non-assessable such that there is no liability for calls or assessments, nor are there any preemptive or redemption rights in favor of existing shareholders. Our distributions are neither set at predetermined times nor at minimum rates.  See “– Shareholder Liquidity Strategy.”
 
Our Advisors
 
Our investment advisers are CNL, which is responsible for the overall management of our activities, and KKR, which is responsible for the day-to-day management of our investment portfolio. CNL provides its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement and under the Administrative Services Agreement, and KKR provides its services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The activities of both Advisors are subject to the supervision and oversight of our board of directors.
 
Our investment process is a collaborative effort between CNL and KKR, and we benefit from the combined business and specific industry knowledge, transaction expertise and deal-sourcing capabilities they bring. To facilitate communication and coordination, our Advisors hold regular meetings to plan and discuss our investment strategy, potential investment opportunities, current market developments and investment goals. We believe their joint involvement in our business provides us with substantial market insight and valuable access to investment opportunities.
 
As required by the Omnibus Guidelines, as adopted by the North American Securities Administrators Association, our Advisors and their parent entities have an aggregate net worth in excess of $22.1 million. No portion of such net worth will be available to us to satisfy any of our liabilities or other obligations.

About KKR
 
KKR is a subsidiary of KKR & Co. L.P. (“KKR & Co.”), a leading global investment firm with $83.5 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2013 and a 37-year history of leadership, innovation and investment excellence. Founded in 1976, KKR & Co. is a global firm with 18 offices and over 900 employees, including more than 200 investment professionals as of June 30, 2013. It operates an integrated global platform for sourcing and executing investments across multiple industries, asset classes and geographies, and its executives are incentivized to think of KKR & Co. as “one firm” and to promote the success of all of its endeavors. Since its inception, KKR & Co. has completed more than 200 private equity transactions with a total transaction value of over $470 billion. As of June 30, 2013, KKR had $19.9 billion of assets under management in credit investments.
 
KKR & Co. operates with a single culture that rewards investment discipline, creativity, determination and patience and the sharing of information, resources, expertise and best practices across offices and asset classes, subject to well-defined information sharing policies and procedures. Because it believes that deep industry knowledge is integral to sourcing deals, working with portfolio companies and creating value for investors, its investment professionals are organized in industry-specific teams that focus on nine core industries which require specialized knowledge and experience. These teams conduct their own primary research, develop views on industry themes and trends and proactively work to identify companies in which to invest, often on an exclusive basis. We believe this industry approach allows investment teams to become experts within their sectors and build strong relationships with companies needing capital, while covering the full corporate credit space. 
 
KKR is a Delaware limited liability company that has been registered as an investment adviser with the SEC since October 15, 2008. It manages a specialty finance company and a number of investment funds, structured finance vehicles and separately managed accounts that invest capital in both liquid and illiquid credit strategies on behalf of some of the largest public and private pension plans, global financial institutions, university endowments and other institutional and public market investors. As of June 30, 2013, KKR had $19.9 billion of credit assets under management and, with more than 40 investment professionals focused on corporate credit, tracked over 400 different borrowers. Its investment professionals utilize an industry and thematic approach to investing and benefit from access, where appropriate, to the broader resources and intellectual capital of KKR & Co.  KKR’s principal business address is 9 West 57th Street, New York, New York 10019.
 
Market Opportunity
 
We pursue a strategy focused on investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors. We believe that the size of the market and these companies’ demand for flexible sources of capital have the potential to create an attractive investment environment for a number of reasons, including the following:
 
Current Market Environment. Although U.S. financial conditions have improved significantly since the recession of 2008-2009, we continue to identify highly interesting idiosyncratic investment opportunities. As U.S. corporate credit fundamentals have improved, default activity has decreased dramatically over the prior three years and remains low by historical standards.  There have been unprecedented new issue-volumes as the financing environment has improved dramatically.  Many large corporate issuers have benefited from this favorable capital market environment.  Despite the relative ease with which large-scale corporates may have access to low-cost capital en masse, there remains a substantial number of companies that, for a variety of reasons, are unable to access the syndicated debt markets on attractive financing terms.  In the United States, we have often found such reasons to include size of issuer, complicated industry dynamics, regulatory overhang, as well as unique or complex capital structures.  Given these market conditions, it is our view that
 
 
38

 
 
 
providing senior and subordinated debt transactions to such companies represents an attractive investment opportunity. Furthermore, we believe the opportunity set for potential lending transactions is likely to increase given the potential for a gradual Federal Reserve tapering and for a move away from the current Central Bank-subsidized low-interest rate environment.
 
Significant Private Equity Capital Available for New Transactions. In addition to general refinancing opportunities that rely heavily on debt financing, we believe there is a large pool of committed but uninvested capital, both in the United States and globally, available for use in new private equity investments. Industry sources suggest that as of October 2013, there was more than $386 billion of private equity capital available for private equity investments in the United States alone. We expect that as a result of their investable capital, private equity firms will be active investors in U.S. medium- and large-sized companies over the next few years and will require significant amounts of debt to finance their transactions.
 
Greater Demand for Non-Traditional Sources of Debt Financing. We believe that the financial crisis of 2008 inspired a certain skepticism on the part of small and middle-market companies towards institutional banks. Facing balance sheet strain as a result of the financial crisis, we believe that these institutions have also become less focused on building a constructive, long-term relationship with smaller borrowers. Consequently, we believe there is an increasing trend for companies to seek financing from alternative capital providers, such as our Company, that are able to develop trusted relationships with borrowers and offer a higher degree of certainty.
 
Business Environment.  As new banking regulations, such as those implementing Basel III and the Dodd-Frank Act, require financial institutions to meet increased capital requirements, we believe it will become difficult and inefficient for these institutions to meet the financing needs of growing medium- to large-sized companies.  This, in our view will continue to provide us with a potential market opportunity to deploy capital through primary issuance securities to this growing segment of the U.S. economy.
 
Our Potential Competitive Advantages
 
As a business development company with a particular focus on lending activities, we experience competition from other business development companies, commercial banks, specialty finance companies, open-end and closed-end investment companies, opportunity funds, private equity funds and institutional investors, many of which may have greater financial resources than we do for the purposes of lending to U.S. businesses within our stated investment focus. These competitors may also have a lower cost of capital, may be subject to less regulatory oversight, and may have lower overall operating costs. The level of competition impacts both our ability to raise capital, find suitable corporate borrowers that meet our investment criteria and acquire and originate loans to these corporate borrowers. We may also face competition from other funds in which affiliates of KKR participate or advise.
 
We believe we have the following potential competitive advantages over other capital providers that operate in the markets we target and allow us to take advantage of the market opportunity we have identified: 
 
Proprietary Sourcing and Deal Origination. Our Advisors, through their deep industry relationships and investment teams that actively source new investments, provide us with immediate access to an established source of proprietary deal flow. CNL and KKR have built leading franchises and deep relationships with major companies, financial institutions and other investment and advisory institutions for sourcing new investments. KKR’s investment professionals are also organized into industry groups that conduct their own primary research, develop views on industry themes and trends and proactively work to identify companies in which to invest, often on an exclusive basis. We believe that our Advisors’ broad networks and the internal deal generation strategies of their investment teams create favorable opportunities to deploy capital across a broad range of originated transactions that have attractive investment characteristics. 
 
Focusing on Preserving Capital and Minimizing Losses. We believe that protecting principal and avoiding capital losses are critical to generating attractive risk-adjusted returns. Toward that end, our investment process is designed to: (i) utilize our Advisors’ proprietary knowledge and deep industry relationships to identify attractive prospective portfolio companies, (ii) conduct rigorous due diligence to evaluate the creditworthiness of, and potential returns from, credit investments in such portfolio companies, (iii) stress test prospective investments to assess the viability of potential portfolio companies in a downside scenario and their ability to repay principal and (iv) structure investments and design covenants and other rights that anticipate and mitigate issues identified through this process. 
 
Experienced Management and Investment Expertise. Each of our Advisors has more than 35 years of investment experience that spans a broad range of economic, market and financial conditions. By accessing their combined resources, skills and experience, we believe we benefit from CNL’s contrarian investment philosophy of focusing on underserved, undercapitalized markets and KKR’s rigorous investment approach, industry expertise and experience investing throughout a company’s capital structure.

Disciplined Credit Analysis and Portfolio Monitoring. Our Advisors provide us with immediate access to an established platform for evaluating investments, managing risk and focusing on opportunities that generate superior returns with appropriate levels of risk. Through KKR, we benefit from an investment infrastructure that currently employs more than 200 investment professionals, including more than 40 credit-focused investment professionals that currently track over 500 corporate credits. This platform should allow for intensive due diligence to filter investment opportunities and help select investments that offer the most favorable risk/reward characteristics. 
 
Versatile Transaction Structuring and Flexible Capital. Our Advisors have experience and expertise in evaluating and structuring investments at all levels of a company’s capital structure and with varying features, providing numerous tools to manage risk while preserving opportunities for income, capital preservation and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We seek to continue to capitalize on this expertise and build our investment portfolio that performs in a broad range of economic conditions while meeting the unique needs of a broad range of borrowers. Although we are subject to regulation as a business development company, we are not subject to many of the regulatory limitations that govern traditional lending institutions. As a result, we believe that we can be more flexible in selecting and structuring investments and adjusting investment criteria. We believe borrowers view this flexibility as a benefit, making us an attractive financing partner.
 
Long-Term Investment Horizon. We believe that our flexibility to make investments with a long-term perspective provides us with the opportunity to generate favorable returns on invested capital and expands the types of investments that we may consider. The long-term nature of our capital helps us avoid disposing of assets at unfavorable prices and we believe makes us a better partner for portfolio companies. 
 
Limited Leverage. We anticipate maintaining a relatively low level of leverage compared to traditional financial institutions and many unregulated investment funds. We believe that limiting our leverage will reduce volatility and risk in our portfolio. Furthermore, by maintaining prudent leverage levels, we believe we will be better positioned to weather market downturns. We do not foresee at any time reaching the 200% asset coverage ratio limitation, as defined in1940 Act, for business development companies.  We expect to borrow funds, consisting of senior securities, at an asset coverage ratio of approximately 250%.
 
Investment Types
 
We focus primarily on investments in senior and subordinated debt of eligible portfolio companies, which we believe offer opportunities for superior risk-adjusted returns and income generation. Our debt investments may be secured in varying degrees of priority or may be unsecured. We may also invest in common or preferred equity of portfolio companies or hold instruments that convert into such securities. The following diagram illustrates the placement of these investments lie in a typical portfolio company’s capital structure.
 
Typical Capital Structure Diagram
 
(FLOW CHART)
 
Senior debt is situated at the top of the capital structure and typically has the first claim on the assets and cash flows of a company followed by subordinated debt, preferred equity and common equity, respectively. Other than common equity, each category of investment may be further divided into different classes of holders that have different rankings, or priorities, among themselves. Due to this priority of cash flows, an investment’s risk increases as it moves further down the capital structure. Investors are usually compensated for assuming the risk associated with junior status in the form of higher expected returns, either through higher interest payments or potentially greater capital appreciation. We rely on our Advisors’ experience to structure investments, possibly using all levels of the capital structure, which we believe will perform in a broad range of economic environments.

Our Investment Strategy
 
Our investment strategy is focused on creating and growing an investment portfolio that generates superior risk-adjusted returns by carefully selecting investments through rigorous due diligence and actively managing and monitoring our investment portfolio. Throughout this prospectus we may refer to the issuers of our investments as portfolio companies.  When evaluating an investment in, or investment security issued by a portfolio company, we use the resources of our Advisors to develop an investment thesis and a proprietary view of a potential portfolio company’s intrinsic value. We believe our flexible approach to investing allows us to take advantage of opportunities that offer the most favorable risk/reward characteristics. Except as restricted by the 1940 Act or by the Code, we deem all of our investment policies to be non-fundamental, which means that they may be changed by our board of directors without shareholder approval.
 
Investment Approach
 
We analyze corporate debt investments both from the “top-down” and the “bottom-up.” Our top-down analysis involves a macroeconomic analysis of relative asset valuations, long-term industry trends, business cycles, interest rate expectations, credit fundamentals and technical factors to target specific industry sectors and asset classes in which to invest. Our bottom-up analysis includes a rigorous analysis of the credit fundamentals and capital structure of each portfolio company considered for investment and a thorough review of the impact of credit and industry trends and dislocation events on a potential investment.
 
Our Transaction Process
 
(FLOW CHART)
 
Sourcing and Selecting Investments
 
We expect our relationships with our Advisors to provide us with immediate access to established sources of deal flow. We seek to benefit from transaction opportunities that arise in the ordinary course from their strong brands, established investment infrastructure, significant amounts of investable capital, and deep relationships with leading executives at major companies, financial institutions and other investment and advisory institutions who are seeking capital or participating in the capital formation process. To enhance our opportunities and increase the amount of investments that we may consider, we intend to further capitalize on proprietary investment opportunities that KKR identifies and develops through primary research, industry activities and deal sourcing skills of its investment professionals.
 
Due Diligence
 
Once a potential investment has been identified, the relevant investment team will screen the opportunity and make a preliminary determination concerning whether to proceed with a more comprehensive due diligence review. Because KKR is responsible for the day-to-day operations of our investment portfolio, its professionals lead our due diligence processes. The objective of our due diligence process is to identify attractive investment opportunities based on the facts and circumstances surrounding an investment and identify applicable business, financial, tax, accounting, structural, legal or other issues in order to determine whether an investment is suitable.
 
When evaluating the suitability of a debt investment, we employ an ownership-oriented, “private equity” approach to credit underwriting and subject each investment to a rigorous credit analysis. This review considers industry dynamics, the issuer’s competitive position, the quality and track record of the issuer’s management team, margin stability, industry and company trends, pricing terms, expected returns, credit structure, credit ratings, and historical and projected financial data. KKR’s investment professionals may meet with management or use the services of outside advisors and industry experts as appropriate to assist them in the due diligence process. We have access to the full available resources of both our Advisors, including KKR & Co. professionals that focus on other asset classes, where appropriate and permitted under information barriers and ethical walls.

Transaction Structuring and Execution
 
In addition to due diligence, we believe that structuring transactions appropriately is a key factor to producing strong investment results under any economic conditions. Accordingly, we actively consider transaction structures and seek to process and negotiate terms that provide opportunities for superior risk-adjusted returns while still addressing the financing and business needs of the prospective portfolio company. To accomplish this goal, we work with the management teams and other financing providers to structure a financing package that will work for all parties and establish how an investment is expected to perform relative to other sources of capital. Relevant investment features may include investment seniority, collateral packages, cash interest payments, PIK interest payments, amortization schedules for principal repayments, redemption features, maturity dates, sinking fund provisions, covenants and pricing terms.
 
In the case of debt investments, we seek to structure each transaction in a manner that protects our rights and manages our risk while creating incentives for the prospective portfolio company to achieve its business plan and improve its profitability. For example, in addition to seeking a more senior position in the capital structure of our portfolio companies, we may limit the downside potential of our investments by:
 
requiring a total return on our investments (including both interest and potential equity appreciation) that compensates us for credit risk;
 
incorporating “put” rights and “call protection” into the investment structure; and
 
negotiating affirmative and negative covenants, default penalties, lien protection, change of control provisions and other creditor rights that protect our capital while affording the portfolio company as much flexibility in managing its business as is prudent.
 
Our debt investments may be accompanied by warrants, options or other forms of equity participation that provide additional consideration or “upside” in a transaction. Because warrants and other similar rights generally require only a nominal cost to exercise, they may generate additional investment returns with little incremental cost to us. We may also structure warrants and other similar rights to provide provisions protecting our rights as a minority-interest holder, as well as puts, or rights to sell such securities back to the company, upon the occurrence of specified events. In many cases, we may also obtain registration rights in connection with these investments that enhance the transferability of our investment.
 
Each investment that we make requires the approval of both of our Advisors. Once an investment has received the approval of both our Advisors, the transaction may be effected. Certain affiliated co-investment transactions may also require review and approval by our independent directors. Certain affiliated co-investment transactions, may also require review and approval by our independent  directors. Specifically, the 1940 Act imposes significant limits on co-investment with affiliates such as other funds or pools of capital  managed by CNL or KKR, and we generally will not be permitted to co-invest alongside our affiliates in privately negotiated  transactions unless such transactions are permitted pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC or the transaction is otherwise permitted under existing regulatory guidance, such as syndicated transactions where price is the only negotiated term. On May 21,  2013, the SEC issued an order granting us exemptive relief that expands our ability to co-invest with certain of our affiliates in  privately negotiated transactions. Subject to the conditions specified in the exemptive order, we are permitted to co-invest with those  affiliates in certain additional investment opportunities, including investments originated and directly negotiated by our Advisors. See “Management.”
 
Monitoring Investments
 
Our Advisors meet regularly to discuss and review our portfolio. Because KKR is responsible for the day-to-day management of our portfolio, its professionals lead our ongoing portfolio monitoring process using daily, quarterly and annual analyses for our investments. Daily analyses include morning market meetings, industry and company pricing runs, and industry and company reports. Quarterly analyses include the preparation of quarterly operating results, reconciliations of actual results to projections and updates to financial models (including baseline and stress cases). Annual analyses involve preparing annual credit memoranda, conducting internal audits and testing compliance with monitoring and documentation requirements.
 
As a business development company, we are required to offer and provide managerial assistance to our portfolio companies. This assistance could involve monitoring the operations of our portfolio companies, participating in board and management meetings, consulting with and advising officers of portfolio companies and providing other organizational and financial guidance. Our Advisors or our administrator will make available such managerial assistance, on our behalf, to our portfolio companies, whether or not they request this assistance.

Exiting Investments
 
We seek to invest in portfolio companies that can generate consistent cash flow to repay their loans while maintaining growth in their businesses. We expect this internally generated cash flow to be a key means through which we will receive timely payment of interest and loan principal. Additionally, we seek to invest in portfolio companies whose business models and growth prospects offer attractive exit possibilities via third-party transactions, including sales to strategic or other buyers and initial public offerings of common stock. Such third-party transactions may be particularly important in realizing capital gains through the equity portions of our investments. We may also seek to exit investments in secondary market transactions when price targets are achieved or circumstances otherwise warrant.
 
Characteristics of Investments
 
While we consider each investment opportunity independently, we generally focus on portfolio companies that share the following characteristics:
 
Size. We seek to provide capital to medium- and large-sized companies, which typically have more defensible market positions, stronger franchises and operations and better credit characteristics relative to their smaller peers. Although there are no strict lower or upper limits on the size of a company in which we may invest, we expect to focus on companies with EBITDAs greater than $25 million. 
 
Capital Structure. Our portfolio consists primarily of senior and subordinated debt, which may in some cases be accompanied by warrants, options, equity co-investments, or other forms of equity participation. We seek to invest in portfolio companies that generate free cash flow at the time of our investment and benefit from material investments from well-known equity investors. 
 
Management Team. We seek to prioritize investing in portfolio companies with strong, existing management teams that we believe have a clear strategic vision, long-standing experience in their industry and a successful operating track record. We favor companies in which management’s incentives appear to be closely aligned with the long-term performance of the business, such as through equity ownership.
 
Stage of Business Life Cycle. We seek mature, privately owned businesses that have long track records of stable, positive cash flow. We do not intend to invest in start-up companies or companies with speculative business plans. 
 
Industry Focus. While we will consider opportunities within all industries, we seek to prioritize industries having, in our view, favorable characteristics from a lending perspective. For example, we seek companies in established industries with stable competitive and regulatory frameworks, where the main participants have enjoyed predictable, low-volatility earnings. We give less emphasis to industries that are frequently characterized by less predictable and more volatile earnings. 
 
Geography. As a business development company under the 1940 Act, we focus on and invest at least 70% of our total assets in U.S. companies. To the extent we invest in foreign companies, we intend to do so in accordance with 1940 Act limitations and only in jurisdictions with established legal frameworks and a history of respecting creditor rights, including countries that are members of the European Union, as well as Canada, Australia and Japan.
 
While we believe that the criteria listed above are important in identifying and investing in portfolio companies, we consider each investment on a case-by-case basis. It is possible that not all of these criteria will be met by each portfolio company in which we invest. There is no limit on the maturity or duration of any investment in our portfolio. We anticipate that substantially all of the investments held in our portfolio will have either a sub-investment grade rating by Moody’s Investors Service and/or Standard & Poor’s or will not be rated by any rating agency. Investment sizes will vary as our capital base changes and will ultimately be at the discretion of our Advisors subject to oversight by our board of directors.
 
Other Factors Affecting Portfolio Construction
 
As a business development company that is regulated under the 1940 Act and intends to qualify annually as a RIC under the Code, our investment activities are subject to certain regulatory restrictions that impact our portfolio construction. These restrictions include requirements that we invest our capital primarily in U.S. companies that are privately owned, as well as investment diversification and source of income criteria that are imposed by the Code.
 
 
43

 

In addition, we generally are not permitted to co-invest alongside certain affiliates of our Advisors in privately negotiated transactions, absent an exemptive order from the SEC. On May 21, 2013, the SEC issued an order granting us exemptive relief that expands our ability to co-invest with certain of our affiliates in privately negotiated transactions.  Subject to the conditions specified in the exemptive order, we are permitted to co-invest with those affiliates in certain additional investment opportunities, including investments originated and directly negotiated by KKR.
 
Portfolio Update
 
As of June 30, 2013, our investment program consisted of two main components.  First, since the inception of our investment activities, we have been engaged in the direct purchase of debt securities primarily issued by portfolio companies, and these debt securities were acquired through both secondary market and primary issuance transactions.  We refer to this investment component as our investment portfolio in this prospectus. Second, beginning in November 2012, we have been increasing our economic exposure to portfolio companies by entering into a total return swap arrangement with a commercial bank counterparty and directing the creation of a portfolio of underlying corporate bonds and loans that serve as reference assets under the TRS. We refer to this investment component as our portfolio of TRS reference assets in this prospectus. In the case of our portfolio of TRS reference assets, we receive all: (i) realized income and fees and (ii) realized capital gains generated by TRS reference assets.  In return, we must pay quarterly to the TRS counterparty a payment consisting of: (i) realized capital losses and (ii) financing costs that are based on a floating interest rate and the settled notional amount of TRS reference assets. The settled notional amount of TRS reference assets is the net aggregate of notional amounts where the purchase and sale of reference assets underlying total return swaps have been settled by the counterparty and serves as the basis for paying financing charges to the counterparty under the TRS agreements.  The total notional amount of TRS reference assets includes the effect of purchases and sale of reference assets where trade settlement is pending.  At the end of the TRS contract life, we will receive additional economic benefit if the net value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets appreciates relative to the settlement date TRS notional amount.  Correspondingly, we will be required to pay the counterparty the amount, if any, by which the net value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets declines relative to the settlement date TRS notional amount. We do not own, or have physical custody of, the TRS reference assets. The TRS reference assets are not direct investments by us.
 
During the years ending December 31, 2012 and 2011, we invested $992.0 million and $106.8 million, respectively, in portfolio companies, and we sold investment positions totaling $358.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, our investment portfolio consisted of 165 and 142 investment positions in 126 and 110 portfolio companies, respectively, for a total fair value of $697.7 million and $106.6 million, respectively, excluding our short term investments and derivative instruments.  As of December 31, 2012, the TRS provided us with economic exposure to 54 investment positions represented by 47 portfolio companies with a total value of $164.8 million.  There were seven investment positions and 19 portfolio companies represented in both our investment portfolio and our portfolio of TRS reference assets as of December 31, 2012.  We had not entered into any TRS as of December 31, 2011.

The following table sets forth certain information as of June 30, 2013 with respect to each portfolio company in which we had a debt or equity investment.  For information relating to the value of our investments and the general terms of loans to our portfolio companies at June 30, 2013, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Portfolio and Investment Activity” and our audited consolidated schedule of investments, which forms part of our consolidated financial statements.

Shareholder Liquidity Strategy
 
On or before December 31, 2018, our board of directors must consider, but is not required to recommend or complete, a liquidity event for our shareholders. If a liquidity event is not completed at that time, our board of directors, as part of its ongoing duties, would continue to consider potential liquidity events and options as they become available to the Company.  However, there is no assurance that a liquidity event will be completed at any particular time or at all. A liquidity event could include: (i) a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange; (ii) a merger or another transaction approved by our board of directors in which our shareholders will receive cash or shares of a publicly traded company; or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of our assets either on a complete portfolio basis or individually followed by a liquidation. Certain types of liquidity events, such as one involving a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange, would allow us to retain our investment portfolio intact. If we determine to list our securities on a national securities exchange, we expect to, but are not required to, maintain our external management structure.
 
In making a determination of whether a liquidity event is in the best interest of the shareholders, our board may consider a variety of criteria, including such factors as market conditions, the trading prices of other comparable vehicles that are publicly traded, portfolio diversification, portfolio performance, our financial condition, potential access to capital and the potential for shareholder liquidity. At this time, we do not know what circumstances will exist in the future and therefore we do not know what factors our board of directors will consider in determining whether to pursue a liquidity event in the future.
 
If a liquidity event is not completed, shareholders may be required to hold their shares for an indefinite period of time. Prior to a liquidity event, our share repurchase program may provide a limited opportunity for you to have your shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, at a price which may reflect a discount from the purchase price you paid for the shares being repurchased. A liquidity event involving a merger or sale of all or substantially all of our assets would require the approval of our shareholders in accordance with our articles of incorporation. See “Share Repurchase Program” for a detailed description of the share repurchase program.
 
Legal Proceedings
 
Neither we, our Advisors nor our Managing Dealer are currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us or against our Advisors or Managing Dealer.
 
From time to time, we and individuals employed by us may be party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. In addition, our business and the businesses of our Advisors and Managing Dealer are subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings. Legal proceedings, lawsuits, claims and regulatory proceedings are subject to many uncertainties and their ultimate outcomes are not predictable with assurance.

Board of Directors
 
Our business is managed under the direction of our board of directors. The responsibilities of the board of directors include the oversight of our investment activities, quarterly valuations of our assets, financing arrangements and corporate governance activities. The board of directors currently has an independent director committee, an audit committee and a nominating and governance committee, and it may establish additional committees from time to time as necessary to fulfill their obligations. Our board of directors consists of five members, three of whom are not “interested persons” as defined in the 1940 Act, which means that they are not affiliated with either us or our Advisors. In this prospectus, we refer to the directors that are not “interested persons” as our independent directors.
 
Information regarding our board of directors is set forth below. Unless otherwise noted, the address for each director is c/o Corporate Capital Trust, Inc., 450 South Orange Ave., Orlando, FL 32801.

Interested Directors
 
Thomas K. Sittema serves as a Director and Chairman of our board of directors. He also serves as director and investment committee member of CNL. In addition, Mr. Sittema currently serves as chief executive officer and director of CNL Financial Group, Inc. and director and/or an officer of various affiliates of CNL Financial Group. Mr. Sittema joined CNL Financial Group in November 2009 and is responsible for the overall management of its investments. From 1982 to October 2009, he served in various roles with Bank of America Corporation and predecessors including NationsBank, NCNB and affiliate successors. Most recently he served as managing director of real estate, gaming, and lodging investment banking for Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Mr. Sittema joined the real estate investment banking division of Banc of America Securities at its formation in 1994 and initially assisted in the establishment and build-out of the company’s securitization/permanent loan programs. He also assumed a corporate finance role with the responsibility for mergers and acquisitions, or M&A, advisory and equity and debt capital raising for his client base. Throughout his career, Mr. Sittema has led numerous M&A transactions, equity offerings and debt transactions, including high grade and high-yield offerings, commercial paper and commercial mortgage-backed security conduit originations and loan syndications. Mr. Sittema received his B.A. in Business Administration from Dordt College, and an M.B.A. with a concentration in Finance from Indiana University.
 
Mr. Sittema was selected as one of our two Interested Directors because of his extensive investment banking experience, particularly with regard to equity offerings, debt transactions and loan syndications. His experience with advisory and capital raising on behalf of clients is particularly relevant to his directorship and, we believe, provides us with exceptional experience upon which to draw. Mr. Sittema’s experience in this regard provides value to our board of directors in its assessment and management of risk. In addition, we believe that Mr. Sittema’s experience as an investment advisory representative is valuable to our board of directors in its oversight of our regulatory and compliance requirements as well as its exercise of fiduciary duties to us and our shareholders.
 
Erik A. Falk serves as a Director. Mr. Falk joined KKR & Co. as a director in 2008 and is currently a member of the ultimate general partner of KKR & Co.  Mr. Falk brings more than 20 years of experience to his position as a portfolio manager and co-head of leveraged credit at KKR. Mr. Falk is also a member of KKR’s Leveraged Credit Investment Committee, Private Credit Investment Committee and Portfolio Management Committee. Prior to joining KKR & Co., Mr. Falk was a managing director at Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. since 2000, where he was most recently global co-head of the securitized products group. In addition to leadership positions in recruiting and sitting on the boards of several of the bank’s companies, Mr. Falk was a member of the global markets North American management committee and a member of the complex transactions underwriting committee for the bank.  Mr. Falk co-ran a global group of over 220 people focused on principal investing, bond underwriting, direct lending and advisory business in securitized products. He was also the global head of the special situations group where he launched a global principal finance business focused on value trading and investing based on financial and asset valuation in both distressed and performing situations. Prior to that, Mr. Falk worked for Credit Suisse First Boston where he was a director in their asset-backed securities department. He originated and executed capital market securitizations for banks, auto finance companies, airlines, student loan originators and CLO issuers. Mr. Falk graduated from Stanford University with an M.S. and B.S. in Chemical Engineering.

Mr. Falk was selected as one of the Company’s two Interested Directors because of his prior experience and familiarity with the Company. Equally significant is his knowledge and experience with business development initiatives and with portfolio risk management and analytics, both of which we believe are key qualifications for providing sound direction and leadership. Mr. Falk also possesses experience in portfolio management across multiple strategies, which we believe will be invaluable to our portfolio investment process.
 
Independent Directors
 
Frederick Arnold serves as an Independent Director. Mr. Arnold currently serves as a member of the board of directors of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and as a member of the board of directors of Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. Additionally, Mr. Arnold currently serves as a member of the board of directors of CIFC Corp. Mr. Arnold has held a series of senior financial positions, most recently serving as executive vice president, chief financial officer and a member of the executive committee of Capmark Financial Group, Inc. from September 2009 to January 2011, where he played a leadership role in that company’s bankruptcy filing and related transactions. Previously, he served as executive vice president of finance for Masonite Corporation, a manufacturing company, from February 2006 to September 2007. While at Willis Group from 2000 to 2003, Mr. Arnold served as chief financial and administrative officer of Willis North America, as group chief administrative officer of Willis Group Holdings Ltd. and as executive vice president of strategic development for Willis Group Holdings Ltd. He also served as a member of the Willis Group executive committee while holding the latter two positions. Prior to these roles, Mr. Arnold spent 20 years as an investment banker primarily at Lehman Brothers and Smith Barney, where he served as managing director and head of European corporate finance. During this time, his practice focused on originating and executing mergers and acquisitions and equity financings across a wide variety of industries and geographies. He also provides pro-bono transactional advice to the New York City Investment Partnership and performs fundraising leadership activities for Amherst College. Mr. Arnold received a J.D. from Yale University, M.A. from Oxford University and undergraduate degree, summa cum laude, from Amherst College.
 
Mr. Arnold was selected as one of our three Independent Directors because of his extensive leadership experience and financial expertise having been an international investment banker for 20 years.
 
James H. Kropp serves as an Independent Director. Mr. Kropp currently serves as chief investment officer of SLKW Investments LLC, successor to i3 Funds, LLC, a position he has held since 2008.  He is also a Manager of Microproperties LLC, where he has served in this capacity since 2011. He was the interim chief financial officer of TaxEase LLC, a property tax lender and tax lien investor from 2010 to February 2012. Between January 2006 and December 2008, Mr. Kropp served as senior vice president of investments at Gazit Group USA, Inc., a real estate investor owned by a company listed on the Tel Aviv stock exchange. Since 1998, Mr. Kropp has been a director, chairman of the compensation committee and member of the nominating/corporate governance committee of PS Business Parks, Inc., a public real estate investment trust whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Mr. Kropp became an independent trustee of American Homes 4 Rent and chairman of its audit committee at its founding in November 2012.  From May 2007 to February 2010, Mr. Kropp was an independent trustee of The CNL Funds, a registered investment company, serving as chairman of the audit committee and a member of the governance and independent trustee committees. Mr. Kropp received a B.B.A.-Finance from St. Francis College and completed the MBA/CPA preparation program from New York University. Mr. Kropp has, in the past, been licensed to serve in a variety of supervisory positions (including financial, options and compliance principal) by the National Association of Securities Dealers. He is a member of the American Institute of CPAs.
 
Mr. Kropp was selected as one of our three Independent Directors because of his prior experience on several investment fund committees. We believe Mr. Kropp’s direct experience with investments as a portfolio manager and registered investment adviser is valuable to our board of directors. He also has extensive accounting, auditing and finance expertise which, we believe, is beneficial in providing leadership on the audit committee.
 
Kenneth C. Wright serves as an Independent Director. Mr. Wright has been a partner with the law firm of Baker & Hostetler LLP since 1990.  Mr. Wright has regularly practiced in the areas of transaction structuring, acquisitions, dispositions, public and private offerings of securities, structured finance and international financings and transactions. Mr. Wright also serves on the board of the Florida Opportunity Fund, funded (i) by the Florida legislature to invest in seed capital and early stage venture capital funds that agree to invest in Florida, (ii) by the Florida Energy and Climate Commission to invest in Florida businesses to increase the use of energy efficient and renewable energy technologies, equipment and materials, and (iii) under the Small Business Jobs Act to provide venture capital to select companies in Florida with perceived long-term growth potential.   Mr. Wright received his J.D. from Southern Methodist University, his M.B.A. from the University of Texas at Austin, and his B.A. in Mathematics from Cameron University.
 
Mr. Wright was selected as one of our three Independent Directors because of his extensive legal expertise in transaction structuring and acquisitions. We believe Mr. Wright’s experience representing public companies and financial service companies provides value to our board of directors. His considerable knowledge of corporate and securities law and experience with public offering and structured finance transactions provide practical value to our board of directors.

Board Committees
 
In addition to serving on our board of directors, our directors also serve on one or more of the following committees which have been established by our board of directors to handle certain designated responsibilities. The board of directors has designated a chairman of each committee. The board of directors may establish additional committees, change the membership of any committee, fill all vacancies, and designate alternate members to replace any absent or disqualified member of any committee, or to dissolve any committee as it deems necessary and in our best interest.
 
Independent Director Committee. Our independent director committee consists of all of our independent directors. Kenneth C. Wright currently serves as chairman of the independent director committee. The independent director committee assists the board of directors by acting as a liaison between the board of directors and our principal service providers, including without limitation, our Advisors.

Our independent director committee held three meetings during 2012.
 
Audit Committee. Our audit committee consists of all of our independent directors. James H. Kropp serves as chairman of the audit committee. Our board of directors has determined that James H. Kropp is an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act. The audit committee operates pursuant to a written charter and meets periodically as necessary. A copy of the audit committee’s charter is available on our website:  www.corporatecapitaltrust.com.  The audit committee is responsible for selecting, engaging and discharging our independent accountants, reviewing the plans, scope and results of the audit engagement with our independent accountants, approving professional services provided by our independent accountants (including compensation therefore), reviewing the independence of our independent accountants and reviewing the adequacy of our internal controls over financial reporting. Our audit committee held five meetings during 2012.
 
Nominating and Governance Committee. Our nominating and governance committee consists of all of our independent directors. Frederick Arnold serves as chairman of the nominating and governance committee. The nominating and governance committee operates pursuant to a written charter and meets periodically as necessary. A copy of the nominating and governance committee’s charter is available on our website:  www.corporatecapitaltrust.com . The nominating and governance committee is responsible for selecting, researching, and nominating directors for election by our shareholders, selecting nominees to fill vacancies on the board or a committee of the board, developing and recommending to the board a set of corporate governance principles and overseeing the evaluation of the board and our management. Our nominating and governance committee will consider shareholders’ proposed nominations for directors. A shareholder who desires to recommend a nominee must submit a request in writing pursuant to the relevant provisions of our bylaws. Our nominating and governance committee will consider nominees recommended in writing by a shareholder (other than shareholder recommendations of himself or herself) to serve as directors, provided that: (i) such person is a shareholder of our company at the time he, she or it recommends such nominee and is entitled to vote at the meeting of shareholders at which directors will be elected; and (ii) the committee will make the final determination as to the qualifications of the individual to be nominated. The committee will evaluate each nominee recommended by a shareholder to serve as director in the same manner as it would evaluate potential nominees identified by the committee. Our nominating and governance committee held four meetings during 2012.

Board Leadership Structure
 
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Among other things, our board of directors sets broad policies for us and approves the appointment of our investment advisers, administrator and officers. The role of our board of directors, and of any individual director, is one of oversight and not of management of our day-to-day affairs.
 
Under our bylaws, our board of directors may designate one of our directors as chair to preside over meetings of our board of directors and meetings of shareholders, and to perform such other duties as may be assigned to him or her by our board of directors. Presently, Mr. Sittema serves as chairman of our board of directors and is an “interested person” by virtue of his professional association with CNL Financial Group. We believe that it is in the best interests of our shareholders for Mr. Sittema to serve as chair of our board of directors because of his significant experience in matters of relevance to our business. Our board of directors has determined that the compositions of the audit committee and the independent director committee are appropriate means to address any potential conflicts of interest that may arise from the chair’s status as an interested person of us. We believe that our board of directors’ flexibility to determine its chair and reorganize its leadership structure from time to time is in the best interests of us and our shareholders.
 
Each year, our independent directors will designate an independent director to serve as the lead independent director on our board of directors. The designation of a lead independent director is for a one-year term, but the lead independent director may succeed himself or herself in that position.  If the lead independent director is unavailable for a meeting, his or her immediate predecessor will serve as lead independent director for such meeting. The lead independent director will preside over meetings of our independent director committee. The lead independent director will also serve as a liaison between our independent director committee and our management on a wide variety of matters, including agenda items for our board of directors meetings. Designation as such does not impose on the lead independent director any obligations or standards greater than or different from those of our other directors.
 
All of the independent directors play an active role on the board of directors. The independent directors compose a majority of our board of directors and are closely involved in all material deliberations related to us. Our board of directors believes that, with these practices, each independent director has an equal involvement in the actions and oversight role of our board of directors and equal accountability to us and our shareholders. Our independent directors meet separately (i) as part of each regular board of directors meeting and (ii) with our chief compliance officer, as part of at least one board of directors meeting each year. Our independent director committee may hold additional meetings at the request of the lead independent director or another independent director.
 
Our board of directors believes that its leadership structure—a chair of our board of directors who is separate from our chief executive officer, a lead independent director and committees led by independent directors—is the optimal structure for us at this time. Our board of directors, which will review its leadership structure periodically as part of its annual self-assessment process, further believes that its structure is presently appropriate to enable it to exercise its oversight of us.
 
Board Role in Risk Oversight
 
Our board of directors oversees our business and operations, including certain risk management functions. Risk management is a broad concept comprising many disparate elements (for example, investment risk, issuer and counterparty risk, compliance risk, operational risk, and business continuity risk). Our board of directors implements its risk oversight function both as a whole and through its committees. In the course of providing oversight, our board of directors and its committees receive reports on our Advisors’ activities, including reports regarding our investment portfolio and financial accounting and reporting. Our board of directors also receives a quarterly report from our chief compliance officer, who reports on our compliance with the federal and state securities laws and our internal compliance policies and procedures as well as those of our Advisors, Managing Dealer, administrator and transfer agent. The audit committee’s meetings with our independent public accounting firm also contribute to its oversight of certain internal control risks. In addition, our board of directors meets periodically with our Advisors to receive reports regarding our operations, including reports on certain investment and operational risks, and our independent directors are encouraged to communicate directly with senior members of our management.
 
Our board of directors believes that this role in risk oversight is appropriate. We believe that we have robust internal processes in place and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks. However, not all risks that may affect us can be identified or processes and controls developed to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence or effects, and some risks are beyond the control of us, our Advisors and our other service providers.

Our investment process is a collaborative effort between CNL and KKR and benefits from the combined business and specific industry knowledge, transaction expertise and deal-sourcing capabilities they bring. CNL is responsible for the overall management of our activities and KKR is responsible for the day-to-day management of our investment portfolio. CNL provides its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement and under the Administrative Services Agreement with us, and KKR provides its services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement with CNL and us. The activities of both of our Advisors are subject to the supervision and oversight by our board of directors.
 
CNL oversees our day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, investor relations, and other administrative services.  CNL also performs, or oversees the performance of, our corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports for our shareholders and reports filed with the SEC.  In addition, CNL assists us in calculating our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our shareholders and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others.
 
For providing these services, facilities and personnel, we reimburse CNL for administrative expenses it incurs in performing its obligations.  The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (i) CNL’s actual costs and (ii) the amount that we would be required to pay for comparable administrative services in the same geographic location.  CNL is required to allocate the cost of such services to us based on objective factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics.  Our board of directors assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to us of obtaining similar services from third-party providers known to be available.  In addition, our board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality.  Finally, our board of directors compares the total amount paid to CNL for such services as a percentage of our net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable business development companies. We do not reimburse CNL for any services for which it receives a separate fee, or for rent, depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items allocated to a controlling person of CNL.
 
Advisory Services
 
Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement, our Advisors are responsible for the following:
 
determining the composition and allocation of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such strategies; 
   
identifying, evaluating, negotiating and structuring the investments we make; 
   
performing due diligence on prospective portfolio companies; 
   
executing, closing, servicing and monitoring the investments we make; 
   
determining the securities and other assets that we will purchase, retain or sell; and 
   
providing us with such other investment advisory, research and related services as we may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of our capital.
 
KKR is primarily responsible for initially identifying, evaluating, negotiating and structuring our investments. These activities are carried out by its investment teams and are subject to the oversight of KKR’s senior investment personnel. Each investment that we make requires the approval of both our Advisors. Certain affiliated co-investment transactions may require the additional approval of our independent director committee.
 
Additionally, as a business development company, we must offer managerial assistance to our portfolio companies. This managerial assistance may include monitoring the operations of our portfolio companies, participating in board and management meetings, consulting with and advising officers of our eligible portfolio companies and providing other organizational and financial guidance. Our Advisors or our administrator make available such managerial assistance, on our behalf, to our eligible portfolio companies whether or not they request this assistance. We may receive fees for these services and will reimburse our Advisors for their allocated costs in providing such assistance, subject to review and approval by our board of directors.

Administrative Services
 
Under the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement, and on our behalf, CNL performs or oversees the performance of various administrative services that we require. These include investor services, general ledger accounting, fund accounting, maintaining required financial records, calculating our net asset value, filing tax returns, preparing and filing SEC reports, preparing, printing and disseminating shareholder reports and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. CNL provides us with facilities and access to personnel necessary for our business and these services. For providing these services, facilities and personnel, we reimburse CNL for administrative expenses it incurs in performing its obligations.
 
Term; Effective Date
 
Each of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement was approved by our board of directors on March 16, 2011 and became effective on April 4, 2011. After an initial two-year term, such agreements must be re-approved annually by our board of directors (including a majority of our independent directors), or the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities.  On March 12, 2013, our board of directors, including our independent directors, approved the renewal of each of these agreements for an additional one-year term through March 18, 2014, subject to earlier termination in accordance with their respective terms. The renewal approvals were made in accordance with, and on a basis of an evaluation satisfactory to our board of directors as required by, Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder. In evaluating these agreements, our board of directors considered a number of factors, including: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided by CNL and KKR; (ii) our investment performance; (iii) comparative data with respect to advisory fees or similar expenses paid by other business development companies with similar investment objectives and (iv) information about the services to be performed and the personnel performing such services under each of the agreements.
 
Each of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment. In accordance with the 1940 Act, we may terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement with CNL and cause CNL to terminate the Sub-Advisory Agreement with KKR upon 60 days’ written notice. The decision to terminate any agreement may be made by a majority of our independent directors or the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock. CNL and KKR have separately agreed between themselves that, in the event that one of them is removed by us as investment advisor other than for cause, the other will also terminate its advisory agreement with us.
 
CNL is permitted to voluntarily terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement, and KKR is permitted to voluntarily terminate the Sub-Advisory Agreement, upon 120 days’ prior written notice. CNL may not terminate the Sub-Advisory Agreement without the consent of our independent directors or the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock.
 
Investment Advisory Fees
 
We pay CNL a fee for its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement consisting of two components: a management fee and an incentive fee. CNL compensates KKR for advisory services that it provides to us with 50% of the fees that CNL receives from us under the Investment Advisory Agreement. We believe that this fee structure benefits shareholders by aligning the compensation of both of our Advisors with our overall investment performance. The cost of both the management fee and the incentive fee is ultimately borne by our shareholders.
 
Management Fee
 
The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2% of our average gross assets and it is payable monthly in arrears. The determination of average gross assets reflects changes in the fair market value of portfolio investments.
 
Incentive Fee
 
The incentive fee comprises two parts: (i) a subordinated incentive fee on income and (ii) an incentive fee on capital gains. Each part of the incentive fee is outlined below.
 
The subordinated incentive fee on income is earned on pre-incentive fee net investment income and shall be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar quarter during which the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement are in effect. In the case of a liquidation or if the Investment Advisory Agreement or Sub-Advisory Agreement is terminated, the fee will also become payable as of the effective date of the event.
 
 
60

 

 
The subordinated incentive fee on income for each quarter is calculated as follows:
 
No subordinated incentive fee on income is payable in any calendar quarter in which the pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed a quarterly return to investors of 1.75% per quarter on our average adjusted capital. We refer to this as the quarterly preferred return. 
   
All of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the quarterly preferred return, but is less than or equal to 2.1875% on our average adjusted capital in any quarter, is payable to the Advisors. We refer to this portion of our subordinated incentive fee on income as the catch up. It is intended to provide an incentive fee of 20% on all of our pre-incentive fee net investment income when our pre-incentive fee net investment income reaches 2.1875% on our average adjusted capital in any quarter. 
   
For any quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% on our average adjusted capital, the subordinated incentive fee on income shall equal 20% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, because the preferred return and catch up will have been achieved. 
   
Pre-incentive fee net investment income is defined as interest income, dividend income and any other income accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter, including the management fee, expenses payable under the Administrative Services Agreement, any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding (i) the incentive fee, (ii) any expense support payments under our Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement with the Advisers (see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Contractual Obligations —Expense Support Agreement”), (iii) any reimbursement by us of expense support payments, and (iv) any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. 
   
Adjusted capital is defined as (a) cumulative proceeds generated from sales of our common stock, including proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan, net of sales loads (sales commissions and marketing support fees) and (b) reduced for (i) distributions paid to our shareholders that represent return of capital and (ii) amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase program.
 
The following is a graphical representation of the calculation of the quarterly subordinated incentive fee on income:
 
Quarterly Subordinated Incentive Fee on
Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income
(expressed as a percentage of average adjusted capital)
 
(GRAPHIC)
 
Percentage of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income
Allocated to Quarterly Incentive Fee
 
The incentive fee on capital gains is earned on liquidated investments and shall be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year during which the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement are in effect. In the case of a liquidation, or if the Investment Advisory Agreement or Sub-Advisory Agreement is terminated, the fee will also become payable as of the effective date of such event. The annual fee will equal 20% of our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, net of (i) all realized capital losses and unrealized depreciation on a cumulative basis from inception and (ii) the aggregate amount, if any, previously paid incentive fees on capital gains as calculated in accordance with GAAP (subject to the limitation discussed in the next sentence).  From and after January 1, 2013, for purposes of computing the performance-based incentive fee payable to the Advisors, we disregard any gains associated with the TRS interest spread (which represents the difference between (i) the interest and fees received on total return swaps, and (ii) the interest paid to the total return swaps counterparty on the settled notional value of total return swaps), and we only consider the net realized gains or losses on the termination or maturity of total return swaps for the purpose of testing and computing incentive fees on capital gains that may be payable annually to the Advisors.
 
 
61

 
 
Because of the structure of the subordinated incentive fee on income and the incentive fee on capital gains, it is possible that we may pay such fees in a quarter where we incur a net loss. For example, if we receive pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the 1.75% on average adjusted capital for a quarter, we will pay the applicable incentive fee even if we have incurred a net loss in the quarter due to a realized or unrealized capital loss. Our Advisors will not be under any obligation to reimburse us for any part of the incentive fee they receive that is based on prior period accrued income that we never receive as a result of a subsequent decline in the value of our portfolio or any borrower default.
 
The fees that are payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement for any partial period will be appropriately prorated. The fees are calculated using a detailed policy and procedure approved by our Advisors and our board of directors, including a majority of the independent directors, and such policy and procedure are consistent with the description of the calculation of the fees set forth above.
 
Our Advisors may elect to defer or waive all or a portion of the fees that would otherwise be paid to them in their sole discretion. Any portion of a fee not taken as to any month, quarter or year will be deferred without interest and may be taken in any such other month prior to the occurrence of a liquidity event as our Advisors may determine in their sole discretion. To the extent that KKR elects to receive its allocable share of the fees in a particular form or waive or defer all or any portion of its allocable share of the fees, CNL will make the election on its behalf and any amounts due to KKR under the Sub-Advisory Agreement will be adjusted accordingly.

Scenario 1 – Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income
 
Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the 1.75% preferred return rate, therefore there is no catch up or split incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income.
 
Scenario 2 – Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income
 
Pre-incentive fee net investment income falls between the 1.75% preferred return rate and the catch up of 2.1875%, therefore the incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income is 100% of the pre-incentive fee above the 1.75% preferred return at 0.2%.
 
Scenario 3 – Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income
 
Pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds the 1.75% preferred return and the 2.1875% catch up provision. Therefore the catch up provision is fully satisfied by the 0.4375% of pre-incentive fee net investment income above the 1.75% preferred return rate and there is a 20% incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income above the 2.1875% “catch up.” This provides a 0.56% incentive fee which represents 20% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Example 2 – Incentive Fee on Capital Gains
 
Assumptions
 
Year 1:
No net realized capital gains or losses
   
Year 2:
6% realized capital gains and 1% realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation; capital gain incentive fee = 20% x (realized capital gains for year computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation at year end)
     
Year 1 Incentive Fee on Capital Gains
= 20% x (0)
   
= 0
   
= No Incentive Fee on Capital Gains
     
Year 2 Incentive Fee on Capital Gains
= 20% x (6% -1%)
   
= 20% x 5%
   
= 1%
 
Indemnification of Our Advisors
 
The Investment Advisory Agreement provides that CNL and KKR and each of its officers, directors, persons associated with each advisor, shareholders (and owners of the shareholders), controlling persons and agents are entitled to indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by them in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceedings arising out of or otherwise based on the performance of any of such advisor’s duties or obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement or the Sub-Advisory Agreement, as applicable, or otherwise as our investment adviser, (i) to the extent such damages, liabilities, cost and expenses (A) are not fully reimbursed by insurance and (B) do not arise by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in such advisor’s performance of such duties or obligations, or such advisor’s reckless disregard of such duties or obligations, and (ii) otherwise to the fullest extent such indemnification is consistent with the provisions of our articles of incorporation, the 1940 Act, the laws of the State of Maryland and other applicable law.

Since commencing our continuous public offering and through October 29, 2013, we have sold 136,849,799 shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $1.48 billion.
 
We have used net proceeds raised to date, and will use the net proceeds from this offering to make investments in accordance with the investment objective and strategies described in this prospectus. These proceeds also may be used for working capital. Net proceeds received by us from the sale or liquidation of assets, are expected to be reinvested by us in assets in accordance with our investment objectives and investment strategies.
 
Based on prevailing market conditions, we anticipate that we will invest the proceeds from each subscription closing generally within 30-90 days. The precise timing will depend on the availability of investment opportunities that are consistent with our investment objective and strategies. Until we are able to find such investment opportunities, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this offering primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, money market funds and high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment. This is consistent with our status as a business development company and our election to be taxed as a RIC. During this time, we may also use a portion of the net proceeds to reduce our borrowings under revolving credit agreements, to pay our operating expenses and fund distributions to shareholders. In addition, during this time, we will pay management fees under the Investment Advisory Agreement as described elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
The following table sets forth our estimates of how we intend to use the gross proceeds from this offering if we sell: (1) $750 million worth of shares, and (2) the maximum number of shares registered in this offering, or 209,000,000 shares, both at the current offering price of $11.10 per share. The amount of net proceeds may be more or less than the amount depicted in the table below depending on the current public offering price of the common stock and the actual number of shares of common stock, if any, we sell in the offering.
 
The amounts in the table below assume that the full fees and commissions are paid on all shares of our common stock offered to the public on a best efforts basis. All or a portion of the selling commission and marketing support fee may be reduced or eliminated in connection with certain categories of sales such as sales for which a volume discount applies, sales through investment advisers or banks acting as trustees or fiduciaries, and sales to our affiliates. The reduction in these fees, as appropriate, will be accompanied by a corresponding reduction in the per share purchase price but will not affect the amounts available to us for investments. Because the amounts in the following table are estimates, they may not accurately reflect the actual receipt or use of the offering proceeds.

On June 8, 2011, we began authorizing and paying monthly distributions to our shareholders. We will distribute pro rata to our shareholders funds received by us that we deem unnecessary for us to retain. Any distributions to our shareholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. We expect to continue making monthly distributions unless our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions, or other factors prohibit us from doing so. From time to time, but not less than quarterly, we will review our accounts to determine whether distributions to our shareholders are appropriate.
 
We may fund our cash distributions to shareholders from any sources of funds available to us, including fee reductions by our Advisors that may be subject to repayment, as well as offering proceeds and borrowings.  We have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from any available sources to make distributions.  Our distributions in our initial year of investment operations resulted from operating expense support payments by our Advisors to us that we are obligated to repay within three years.  You should understand that such distributions were not based on our investment performance.  You should also understand that our repayments to our Advisors in future periods will reduce the distributions that you would otherwise be entitled to receive.  There can be no assurance that we will achieve the performance necessary to sustain our distributions, or that we will be able to continue to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.  Our Advisors have no obligation to reduce their advisory fees or otherwise reimburse expenses in future periods.
 
The following table presents the total cash distributions declared per share of common stock outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2013:

Each year a statement on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-DIV (or such successor form) identifying the source of the distribution is mailed to our shareholders. Our distributions may exceed our earnings, especially during the period before we have substantially invested the proceeds from this offering. As a result, a portion of the distributions we make may represent a return of capital for tax purposes. The tax basis of shares must be reduced by the amount of any return of capital distributions, which will result in an increase in the amount of any taxable gain (or a reduction in any deductible loss) on the sale of shares.

We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code. To maintain RIC tax treatment, we must distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary taxable income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to our shareholders. A RIC may satisfy the 90% distribution requirement by actually distributing dividends (other than capital gain dividends) during the taxable year. In addition, a RIC may, in certain cases, satisfy the 90% distribution requirement by distributing dividends relating to a taxable year after the close of such taxable year under the “spillover dividend” provisions of sub-chapter M. If a RIC makes a spillover dividend the amounts will be included in the 1099s for the year the spillback distribution is paid (stated differently there is no impact of a spillback distribution to the shareholder).
 
In order to minimize certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we currently intend to distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of: (i) 98% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made by us to use our taxable year) and (iii) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no federal income tax.
 
We currently intend to distribute net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually out of the assets legally available for such distributions. However, we may decide in the future to retain such capital gains for investment and elect to treat such gains as deemed distributions to you. If this happens, you will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as if you had received an actual distribution of the capital gains that we retain and reinvested the net after tax proceeds in us. In this situation, you would be eligible to claim a tax credit (or, in certain circumstances, a tax refund) equal to your allocable share of the tax we paid on the capital gains deemed distributed to you. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit the payment of any cash distributions and, if we issue senior securities, we will be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes us to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings. See “Tax Matters.”
 
We have adopted an “opt-in” distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which you may elect to have the full amount of your cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock.  See “Distribution Reinvestment Plan.”

Total investment return-net price is a measure of total return for shareholders who purchased the Company’s common stock at the beginning of the period, including dividends declared during the period. Total investment return-net price is based on (i) the purchase of one share at the public offering price, net of sales load, on the first day of the period, (ii) the sale at the net asset value per share on the last day of the period, of (A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the cash payment for distributions payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment return-net price calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan are issued at the then public offering price, net of sales load, on each monthly distribution payment date. There is no public market for the Company’s shares and the market value at sale is assumed to be equal to net asset value per share on the last day of the period.  The Company’s performance changes over time and currently may be different than that shown above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.   Investment performance is presented without regard to sales load that may be incurred by our shareholders in the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock.

Total investment return-net asset value is a measure of the change in total value for shareholders who held the Company’s common stock at the beginning and end of the period, including dividends declared during the period. Total investment return-net asset value is based on (i) the beginning period net asset value per share on the first day of the period, (ii) the net asset value per share on the last day of the period, of (A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the value of distributions payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment return-net asset value calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan are issued at the then public offering price, net of sales load, on each monthly distribution payment date.

Revolving Credit Facilities
 
CCT Funding is party to a revolving credit facility with Deutsche Bank and the other lenders from time to time thereto (the “Lenders”). Deutsche Bank serves as administrative agent under the credit facility. As of September 30, 2013, the credit facility provides for borrowings by CCT Funding in an aggregate amount up to $265 million on a committed basis. As of December 31, 2012, approximately $159.62 million was borrowed and outstanding under the revolving credit facility, and, as of September 30, 2013, approximately $264.44 million was borrowed and outstanding under the credit facility.
 
Paris Funding is party to a revolving credit facility with BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage, Inc. under which we may borrow up to $200 million.  This credit facility became effective on June 12, 2013.  As of September 30, 2013, $125 million was borrowed and outstanding under this credit facility.
 
On September 4, 2013, our Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and ING Capital, LLC.  This credit facility provides for loans to be made in dollars and other foreign currencies in an initial aggregate amount of $285 million. It also includes an “accordion” feature that allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility to a maximum of $600 million.  As of September 30, 2013, $117 million was borrowed and outstanding under this credit facility.
 
For a description of these three credit facilities, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Credit Facility.”
 
Total Return Swap
 
On November 15, 2012, Halifax Funding, our newly-formed, wholly owned, special purpose financing subsidiary entered into a TRS arrangement with The Bank of Nova Scotia (“BNS”), which consist of a set of agreements that are collectively referred to herein as the TRS agreements.   Pursuant to the terms of the TRS agreements, Halifax Funding may select a portfolio of single-name corporate loans and bonds with a maximum aggregate notional amount of $500 million. Halifax Funding is required to initially cash collateralize a specified percentage of each loan or bond (generally, at least 40% of the notional amount of such loan or bond) in accordance with margin requirements described in the TRS agreements.
 
For purposes of determining our compliance with the asset coverage ratio test applicable to us as a business development company, we regard the TRS total notional amount at the end of the period, less the total amount of cash collateral posted under the TRS, as a senior security for the life of the TRS. (See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Total Return Swaps.”)
 
As of December 31, 2012, the total notional amount of the portfolio of TRS reference assets was $164.01 million, and the total amount of cash collateral posted under the TRS was $87.97 million, resulting in $76.04 million of deemed senior securities from the TRS arrangement.

The information in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in the registration statement.
 
Overview
 
We are a non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company under the 1940 Act. Formed as a Maryland corporation on June 9, 2010, we are externally managed by our Advisors, CNL and KKR.  Our Advisors are responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. Both Advisors are registered as investment advisers with the SEC.  CNL also provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate.
 
Investment Objective and Investments
 
Our investment objective is to provide our shareholders with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We intend to meet our investment objective by investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies (also referred to as “portfolio companies”) with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of our Advisors. A substantial portion of our portfolio consists of senior and subordinated debt, which we believe offer potential opportunities for superior risk-adjusted returns and income generation. Our debt investments may take the form of corporate loans or bonds, may be secured or unsecured and may, in some cases, be accompanied by warrants, options or other forms of equity participation. We may also potentially purchase common or preferred equity interests in our portfolio companies.
 
As of June 30, 2013, our investment program consisted of two main components.  First, since the inception of our investment activities we have been engaged in the direct purchase of debt securities primarily issued by portfolio companies, and these debt securities were acquired through both secondary market and primary issuance transactions.  We refer to this investment component as our “investment portfolio” in this prospectus. Second, beginning in November 2012, we have been increasing our economic exposure to portfolio companies by entering into a total return swap, or TRS, arrangement with a commercial bank counterparty and directing the creation of a portfolio of underlying corporate bonds and loans that serve as reference assets under the TRS. We refer to this investment component as our portfolio of TRS reference assets or “TRS Portfolio” in this prospectus. In the case of our TRS Portfolio, we receive all: (i) realized income and fees and (ii) realized capital gains generated by TRS reference assets.  In return, we must pay quarterly to the TRS counterparty a payment consisting of: (i) realized capital losses and (ii) financing costs that are based on a floating interest rate and the notional amount of TRS reference assets.  At the end of the TRS contract life, we will receive additional economic benefit if the net value of the TRS Portfolio appreciates relative to its notional amount.  Conversely, we will be required to pay the counterparty the amount, if any, by which the net value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets declines relative to its notional amount. We do not own, or have physical custody of, the TRS reference assets. The TRS reference assets are not direct investments by us.
 
On May 23, 2013 we were granted exemptive relief by the SEC which expanded our ability to co-invest in privately negotiated transactions with other investment funds affiliated with KKR, which to as “Co-Investment Transactions” in this prospectus. Accordingly, our Advisors are able to pursue and access investment opportunities where:
 
 
(i)
the business terms for investing debt and equity capital in the portfolio company are negotiated in all respects,
 
 
(ii)
KKR or one or more of its affiliates is directly sourcing and negotiating the business terms of the Co-Investment Transaction, and
 
 
(iii)
we can establish and liquidate our investment position alongside other investment funds that are managed by KKR or that represent affiliates of KKR.
 
Our Advisors expect that these Co-Investment Transactions will represent an increasing portion of the investment portfolio and therefore we can expect some of the following changes as a result of more emphasis on Co-Investment Transactions as another means to invest in the debt securities issued by portfolio companies:
 
 
An increase in the proportion of debt investments of portfolio companies that are originated directly by KKR and its affiliates as primary market negotiated transactions, and a commensurate reduction in the proportion of our portfolio that is comprised of debt investments that are acquired and liquidated through secondary market transactions, thereby altering the liquidity characteristics of our investment portfolio;
 
 
 
69

 
 
 
An increase in the average amount invested per portfolio company as a result of (i) a reduction in the overall number of portfolio companies held in the investment portfolio and (ii) the likely increase in the average amount of capital that is committed to primary market negotiated transactions, including Co-Investment Transactions, thereby altering the investment diversification and concentration characteristics of our investment portfolio;
 
 
An increase in the number of investments and the proportion of our portfolio that will rely on valuation inputs that are unobservable and where initially there is little, if any, market activity for the Co Investment Transaction, thereby relying to a greater extent on the Company’s board of directors to determine in good faith the fair value of an increasing number of our investments, including Co-Investment Transactions in accordance with the our valuation policies and procedures;
 
 
The addition of new borrowing arrangements, including secured credit facilities and unsecured debt issuance, to finance Co-Investment Transactions with borrowed capital in addition to equity capital available to us, while adhering to the borrowing limitations that already apply to us and other business development companies pursuant to the 1940 Act.
 
 The level of our investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including: the demand for debt from creditworthy privately owned U.S. companies, the level of merger, acquisition and refinancing activity involving private companies, the availability of credit to finance transactions, the general economic environment, the competitive investment environment for the types of investments we currently seek and intend to seek in the future, the amount of equity capital we raise from offering common stock in our company and the amount of capital we may borrow under our revolving credit facilities.
 
As a business development company, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we may not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Under the relevant SEC rules, the term “eligible portfolio company” includes all private companies, companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of less than $250 million. These rules also permit us to include as qualifying assets certain follow-on investments in companies that were eligible portfolio companies at the time of initial investment but that no longer meet the definition of eligible portfolio company at the time of the follow-on investment.
 
Revenues
 
We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest on the debt securities of portfolio companies that we acquire and hold for investment purposes. Our investments in debt securities generally have an expected maturity of three to ten years, although we have no lower or upper constraint on maturity, and we typically earn interest at a fixed or floating rates. Interest on our debt securities is generally payable to us quarterly or semi-annually. In some cases, our debt investments may partially defer cash interest payments with payment-in-kind provisions. Any outstanding principal amount of our debt securities and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment fees, commitment fees, origination fees, and fees for providing significant managerial assistance.  While the reference assets underlying the total return swap agreements generate interest income and fees, such amounts, net of the financing amounts we pay quarterly to the TRS counterparty, are recorded as realized gains pursuant to GAAP when payable to us.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of a base management fee and, depending on our operating results, performance-based incentive fees, reimbursable expenses under the investment advisory agreement, interest expense and financing fees, amortization of deferred offering expenses, fund administrative expenses, and third-party expenses incurred under the administrative services agreement and custody/accounting agreements. The base management fee and performance-based incentive fees compensate the Advisors for their efforts and resources in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and investment transactions.

Business Environment
 
Over the second quarter of 2013 the market’s uncertainty regarding future U.S. monetary policy precipitated in a sell-off, and will likely continue to shape the performance of high yield bonds and bank loans over the remainder of the year.  Fundamentals and robust credit underwriting remain a priority as recent market driven volatility caused default rates to trend higher from their post credit-crisis lows.  In the second quarter, bond funds, which are more subject to interest-rate risk than loan funds, experienced outflows while capital inflows into loan funds remained steady.  While we expect that floating rate bank loans will remain a significant percentage of our portfolio, the backup in bond yields created an attractive re-entry point to selectively increase allocations to high yield bonds during the three months ended June 30, 2013. Further, market volatility and increasing merger and acquisition activity has begun to tilt investment yields back into lenders’ favor and over the next few quarters we expect that proprietary deals of Co-Investment Transactions will be an increasing part of our investment strategy over the next few quarters.
 
The combination of interest rate increases and bond fund cash outflows led the bond market to losses this quarter while loans were less affected due to their floating rate nature and cash inflows into loan funds. The S&P Leveraged Loan Index, a measure of senior secured debt, increased 0.19% during the second quarter of 2013 and the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II, a measure of subordinated debt, decreased 1.35% over the same period. Three-month LIBOR, a common base rate for loans, continued its descent in the second quarter of 2013 by decreasing 1 basis point (“bps”) from first quarter of 2013 and 19 bps from the same period last year, to finish the period at 0.27%. The five-year US Treasury note interest yield, a common benchmark for bond yield comparisons, continued its ascent by increasing 64 bps for the quarter and 69 bps over the trailing 12 months, to finish the period at 1.41%.

While the investment portfolio and the TRS Portfolio are accounted for, and presented as, two distinct portfolios, the two portfolios had 15 debt investment positions and 19 portfolio companies in common as of June 30, 2013. The fair value of our investment portfolio, excluding our short term investments, increased by 33% during the three months ended June 30, 2013 primarily due to an increase in equity capital available for investment; the fair value of our TRS Portfolio decreased by 60% during the same period, primarily due to a substantial deletion and liquidation of reference assets in the TRS Portfolio.  More importantly, the overall changes in the (i) the number of portfolio companies, (ii) the number of debt investments and (iii) the relative allocation of investment activity between the investment portfolio and the TRS Portfolio during the three months ended June 30, 2013 were the result of opportunistic harvesting of unrealized gains and portfolio strategic repositioning activities conducted by our Advisors that will allow us to invest in primary market negotiated Co-investment Transactions and other originated transactions. We invested $46.73 million in one Co-Investment Transaction during the three months ended June 30, 2013 (Polyconcept).

Our investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit, unfunded delayed draw loan commitments or revolving credit facilities, which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of June 30, 2013, we had two unfunded loan commitments (one portfolio company) that totaled $20,150,000.  We maintain sufficient liquidity in the form of cash on hand, cash proceeds from unsettled liquidated investments, and borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facilities to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.
 
As of June 30, 2013, we neither “control” nor are we an “affiliated person” (each as defined in the 1940 Act) of any of our portfolio companies. Under the 1940 Act, we generally would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if we own beneficially, either directly or through one or more controlled companies, 25% or more of its voting securities; and generally would be an “affiliated person” of a portfolio company if we directly or indirectly own or otherwise control 5% or more of its voting securities
 
Investment Activity for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011
 
Our flexible mandate allows for our Advisors to actively manage yield and risk by re-allocating the portfolio between fixed and floating securities, senior and subordinated securities, as well as between secondary and primary debt issuance transactions. One of the most noticeable evidences of our flexible investment mandate is the shift towards direct and indirect investment participation in primary debt issuance transactions.  As of December 31, 2012, we had investment exposure to approximately $290 million of corporate debt securities that were acquired as portfolio investments or as TRS reference assets in transactions featuring the original issuance of these debt securities.  See “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for a comprehensive list of all investments in portfolio companies that we held in our investment portfolio as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and TRS reference assets as of December 31. 2012.
 
During the year ending December 31, 2012, we invested $991.95 million in the securities issued by portfolio companies. These investments were sourced, underwritten and monitored by our Advisors. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we sold investment positions totaling $358.60 million. As of December 31, 2012, our investment portfolio consisted of 165 investment positions in 126 portfolio companies, representing a total fair value of $697.67 million, excluding our short term investments and derivative instruments.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, we added 62 new portfolio companies to our investment portfolio and we exited from our investment positions in 46 portfolio companies that had been held in the investment portfolio at December 31, 2011.
 
During the year ending December 31, 2011, we invested $106.81 million in portfolio companies.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, we sold investment positions totaling $0.48 million. As of December 31, 2011, our investment portfolio consisted of 142 investment positions in 110 portfolio companies, for a total fair value of $106.59 million, excluding our short term investments.
 
The portfolio of TRS reference assets provides us with economic exposure to 54 debt investment positions represented by 47 portfolio companies with a total value of approximately $164.77 million.  There were seven investment positions and 19 portfolio companies represented in both our investment portfolio and our TRS portfolio of reference assets as of December 31, 2012.

The information presented below is for further analysis of our investment portfolio and our portfolio of TRS reference assets, or TRS portfolio. However, our investment program is not managed with any specific investment diversification or dispersion target goals. The following table summarizes the composition of our investment portfolio and our portfolio of TRS reference assets based on fair value as of December 31, 2012, excluding our short term investments: We do not own, or have physical custody of, the TRS reference assets. The reference assets are not direct investments of our Company.

Our investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit, unfunded delayed draw loan commitments or revolving credit facilities, which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of December 31, 2012, we held two unfunded delayed draw loan commitments that amounted to $1,012,317.  As of December 31, 2011, we held one delayed draw line of credit investment position; however, this investment was fully funded and does not represent an unfunded loan commitment with recourse to us.  We maintain sufficient cash on hand to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Offering of Common Stock
 
On June 23, 2010, we filed our registration statement with the SEC to register our initial public offering as part of our continuous offering process.  That initial public offering commenced on April 4, 2011 when the registration statement was declared effective.  The initial public offering terminates, and this follow-on public offering commences, upon the initial effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is part.  We raised in our continuous public offering net proceeds of $220.29 million and $406.74 million during the three and six months ending June 30, 2013, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013, we have raised net proceeds of $1,015.87 million through the sale of 103.66 million shares of common stock since we commenced our continuous public offering, including the reinvestment of distributions into shares of our common stock.  Nearly all of this equity capital has been applied to acquire investment positions in portfolio companies.
 
Credit Facilities
 
We borrow funds to invest alongside the equity capital proceeds of our offering to increase our investment positions in portfolio companies and to further diversify the number of portfolio company investment positions. We may issue “senior securities,” including borrowing money from banks or other financial institutions only in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after such borrowing incurrence or issuance of our corporate debt securities, if any.
 
Deutsche Bank Credit Facility
 
In 2011, our wholly-owned special purpose financing subsidiary CCT Funding entered into a revolving credit facility agreement as amended, the “Deutsche Bank Credit Facility”) with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (“Deutsche Bank”). At the time CCT Funding initially entered into the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility, Deutsche Bank was the sole initial lender. On February 11, 2013, CCT Funding, Deutsche Bank and a second lender entered into an amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility.  The Third Amendment amended the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility by providing for, among other things, the extension of a new tranche of loan commitments (the “Tranche D Loans”) permitting additional borrowings in an aggregate amount of up to $100.00 million. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan became a Lender under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility.
 
CCT Funding has appointed us to manage its investment portfolio pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. CCT Funding’s obligations to the lenders under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of CCT Funding. The obligations of CCT Funding under the revolving credit facility are non-recourse to us. Approximately 66% of our total investment portfolio, including money market investments, was held as collateral at CCT Funding under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility as of June 30, 2013.
 
The Deutsche Bank Credit Facility currently provides for borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $340.00 million.  We have incurred costs of $1.34 million in connection with arranging and amending the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility, primarily consisting of upfront commitment and legal fees.  We have recorded these costs as deferred financing costs on our condensed consolidated statement of assets and liabilities and we amortize these costs to interest expense over the life of the credit facility.  As of June 30, 2013, $0.82 million of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.
 
As of June 30, 2013, $69.44 million was borrowed and outstanding as Tranche A Loans. The unused commitment balances were $5.56 million, $65.00 million, $100.00 million and $100.00 million under the Tranche A Loans, Tranche B1 Loans, Tranche B2 Loans and Tranche D Loans commitments, respectively. For the three months and six months ending June 30, 2013, our all-in cost of financing for the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility, including fees and expenses, was 2.86% and 2.66%, respectively.
 
BNP Credit Facility
 
On June 4, 2013, we entered into a committed facility arrangement (the “BNP Credit Facility”), which became effective on June 12, 2013, with BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage, Inc. (“BNP”) under which we may borrow up to $200 million.  The BNP Credit Facility consists of a set of agreements (namely, a Committed Facility Agreement by and between us and BNP (the “CFA”), a U.S. PB Agreement by and between us and BNP and a Special Custody and Pledge Agreement by and among us, BNP and State Street Bank and Trust Company, each dated as of June 4, 2013), which we collectively referred to as the Financing Agreements.  The BNP Credit Facility is secured by certain assets in our portfolio that have been pledged as collateral.  The amount of assets that we are required to pledge is determined in accordance with the margin requirements of the BNP Credit Facility. Approximately 13% of our total investment portfolio, including money market investments, was pledged as collateral under the BNP Credit Facility as of June 30, 2013. Interest is charged at the annual rate of one month LIBOR plus 1.10% and is payable monthly. The Company also pays an annual commitment fee of 0.55% on any unused commitment amounts.   In connection with the Financing Agreements, we have made customary representations and warranties and are required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities.

On August 29, 2013, we assigned the Financing Agreements to Paris Funding, a Delaware limited liability company that is our wholly-owned subsidiary. In connection with such assignment, Paris Funding and BNP entered into an Amended and Restated Committed Facility Agreement that effected the following amendments to the CFA: (a) revising the defined term “Maximum Commitment Financing” to provide that if Paris Funding does not send BNP, prior to December 30, 2013, a notice electing to maintain the Maximum Commitment Financing at $200 million, then the Maximum Commitment Financing will be reduced from time to time by the amount by which the Maximum Commitment Financing exceeds 120% of the outstanding debt financing under the Financing Agreements (but in no event would the Maximum Commitment Financing be reduced to an amount less than $50 million), (b) providing that if, at any date after December 30, 2013, the outstanding debt financing under the Financing Agreements is less than 80% of the Maximum Commitment Financing, then the commitment fee on any unused commitment amounts shall increase from 0.55% to 0.75% and (c) including the following additional facility termination events: (i) Paris Funding’s entry into any additional indebtedness with a party other than BNP or its affiliates beyond the financing provided under the Financing Agreements and (ii) Paris Funding’s pledge of any securities it owns or holds to any party other than BNP and its affiliates.
 
As of June 30, 2013, $100.00 million was borrowed and outstanding under the BNP Credit Facility. For the three months and six months ending June 30, 2013, our all-in cost of financing for the BNP Credit Facility, including fees and expenses, was 2.46%. We have incurred costs of $0.41 million in connection with arranging the BNP Credit Facility, primarily consisting of upfront commitment and legal fees.  We have recorded these costs as deferred financing costs on our condensed consolidated statement of assets and liabilities and we amortize these costs to interest expense over the initial term of the credit facility.  As of June 30, 2013, $0.39 million of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.
 
Senior Secured Credit Facility
 
On September 4, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “JPM Credit Agreement”). The JPM Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”) consisting of loans to be made in dollars and other foreign currencies in an initial aggregate amount of $285 million.  Availability under the Senior Secured Credit Facility will terminate on September 4, 2016 (the “Revolver Termination Date”) and the outstanding loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facility will mature on September 4, 2017.  The Senior Secured Credit Facility also requires mandatory prepayment of interest and principal upon certain events during the term-out period commencing on the Revolver Termination Date.  The stated borrowing rate under the Senior Secured Credit Facility is based on LIBOR plus an applicable spread of 2.50% or on an “alternate base rate” (which is the highest of a prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%) plus an applicable spread of 1.50%, or, with respect to borrowings in non-LIBOR currencies, on a rate applicable to such currency plus an applicable spread of 2.50%.  Pursuant to a Guarantee and Security Agreement dated as of the Closing Date and entered into among us, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (in its capacity as administrative agent and in its capacity as collateral agent) and the other parties thereto (the “Guarantee and Security Agreement”), the Senior Secured Credit Facility is secured by all of our portfolio investments and our cash and securities accounts (in each case, subject to certain exclusions), and provides, under certain conditions, for a guaranty to be provided by certain of our subsidiaries.  In connection with the security interest established under the Guarantee and Security Agreement, we, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as collateral agent, and State Street Bank and Trust Company, in its capacity as custodian, entered into a Control Agreement dated as of the Closing Date in order to, among other things, perfect such security interest in, and provide for control of, the related collateral.  JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. serves as administrative agent under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and ING Capital, LLC serves as syndication agent under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.  JPMorgan Securities LLC and ING Capital LLC serve as joint bookrunners and joint lead arrangers.
 
The Senior Secured Credit Facility includes an “accordion” feature that allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility to a maximum of $600 million.
 
Under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, we have made certain representations and warranties and are required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar revolving credit facilities, including, without limitation, covenants related to: (a) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (b) limitations on certain investments, (c) limitations on certain asset transfers and restricted payments, (d) maintaining a certain minimum shareholders’ equity, (e) maintaining a ratio of total assets (less total liabilities) to total indebtedness of us and our subsidiaries of not less than 2.0:1.0, (f) satisfying a liquidity test, and (g) limitations on the creation or existence of agreements that prohibit liens on certain of our properties and certain of our subsidiaries.  The Senior Secured Credit Facility also includes usual and customary events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.
 
In addition to the covenants described above, borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility (and the incurrence of certain other permitted debt) will be subject to compliance with a borrowing base that will apply different advance rates to different types of assets in our portfolio.  Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility will also be subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the 1940 Act.
 
 
79

 

As of June 30, 2013, the ratio of total credit facility borrowings-to-adjusted total assets was 14%. (Adjusted total assets is equal to total consolidated assets excluding payable for investments purchased.) We will continue to draw on the revolving credit facilities and combine borrowed funds with equity capital to increase and expand our investment positions in portfolio companies. Additionally, we may further increase the aggregate borrowing commitment in the future beyond the current amount of $540.00 million that is available to us from two revolver credit facilities, and/or we may add additional credit arrangements.  See “Note 11 Revolving Credit Facilities and Borrowings” in our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding our credit facilities.
 
Total Return Swaps
 
On November 15, 2012, Halifax Funding, our wholly-owned, special purpose financing subsidiary, entered into a TRS arrangement with The Bank of Nova Scotia (“BNS”).  Our TRS arrangement with BNS consists of a set of agreements (namely, an ISDA 2002 Master Agreement, together with the Schedule thereto and Credit Support Annex to such Schedule, by and between Halifax Funding LLC and BNS, and a Confirmation Letter Agreement by and between Halifax Funding and BNS, and a tri-party custodian agreement between Halifax Funding and BNS and The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York , each dated as of November 15, 2012), and are collectively referred to herein as the TRS Agreements. Under the terms of the TRS Agreements, each reference asset in the TRS portfolio constitutes a separate total return swap transaction, although all calculations, payments and transfers required to be made under the TRS are calculated and treated on an aggregate basis, based upon all such transactions.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the TRS Agreements, Halifax Funding may select single-name corporate loans and bonds and create a TRS portfolio with a maximum aggregate notional amount of $500.00 million. Halifax Funding is required to initially cash collateralize a specified percentage of each loan or bond (generally, at least 40% of the notional amount of such loan or bond) in accordance with margin requirements stipulated in the TRS Agreements.
 
Pursuant to Halifax Funding’s limited liability company operating agreement, we act as the manager of Halifax Funding and exercise Halifax Funding’s rights under the TRS, including selecting the specific loans or bonds to be included in, or deleted from, the TRS Portfolio. The loans and/or bonds selected by Halifax Funding for purposes of inclusion in the TRS Portfolio are selected by us in accordance with our investment objective.  Each selected loan or bond, and the TRS Portfolio taken as a whole, must also meet criteria described in the TRS Agreements.  BNS, as calculation agent, determines whether each loan or bond complies with the TRS portfolio criteria. Halifax Funding receives quarterly from BNS all collected interest and fees from the portfolio of TRS reference assets. Halifax Funding pays to BNS interest at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR+0.80% per annum if the initial investment amount (i.e., posted cash collateral) equals or exceeds 50% of the notional amount, or three-month LIBOR+1.00% if the initial investment amount is less than 50% of the TRS notional amount. In addition, upon the sale or repayment of any TRS reference asset, Halifax Funding will either receive from BNS the realized gain in the value of such reference asset relative to its notional amount, or pay to BNS any realized loss in the value of the reference asset relative to its notional amount.  The required amount of collateral may exceed 50% of the notional amount in the event that reference asset(s) or groupings of assets exceed certain portfolio concentration threshold.
 
Under the terms of the TRS Agreements, Halifax Funding may be required to post additional collateral, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, in the event of depreciation in the value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets after such value decreases below a specified amount. The minimum additional collateral that Halifax Funding is required to post pursuant to the TRS Agreements is equal to the amount required to ensure that the value of the TRS credit support is equal to 25% of the value of the TRS Portfolio.
 
The obligations of Halifax Funding under the TRS Agreements are non-recourse to us and our exposure under the TRS Agreements is limited to the amount of collateral that is posted pursuant to the terms of the TRS Agreements. We have no contractual obligation to post any collateral or to make any payments on behalf of Halifax Funding to BNS.  We may, but are not obligated to, increase our equity capital investment in Halifax Funding for the purpose of funding any additional collateral or payment obligations for which Halifax Funding may become obligated during the term of the TRS Agreements. If we do not make any such additional equity capital investment in Halifax Funding and Halifax Funding fails to meet its obligations under the TRS Agreements, then BNS will have the right to terminate the TRS Agreements and seize the collateral posted by Halifax Funding. In the event of an early termination of the TRS, Halifax Funding would be required to pay an early termination fee.
 
In connection with the TRS Agreements, Halifax Funding has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, financial reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default and termination events, the TRS Agreements contain the following additional termination events, among others: (a) the occurrence of an event that materially and adversely affects us and that BNS reasonably believes could also materially impair Halifax Funding’s ability to perform its obligations under the TRS Agreements; (b) a regulatory or judicial authority’s initiation of a proceeding for financial fraud or criminal wrongdoing against us that is reasonably likely to adversely impact the risk profile of an investment in or loan to Halifax Funding; (c) specified material reductions in Halifax Funding’s net asset value, including if, at any time, such net asset value declines to less than 50% of its net asset value in effect either as of the last day of
 
 
80

 
 
the preceding calendar year or as of the date of the TRS Agreements; (d) Halifax Funding’s material amendment to, or material failure to comply with, its investment strategies or restrictions, to the extent that, in light of such amendment or non-compliance, BNS reasonably expects Halifax Funding to be unable to observe its obligations under the TRS Agreements; and (e) if, at any time, out of a group of seven specifically identified key KKR personnel, fewer than four continue to be partners, members, directors or employees of KKR or serve investment or risk assessment roles in respect of KKR.
 
For purposes of the asset coverage ratio test applicable to us under the 1940 Act as a business development company, we treat the difference between (i) the TRS notional amount, and (ii) the actual amount of cash collateral posted by Halifax Funding under the TRS, as a senior security for the life of the TRS Agreements. Further, for purposes of determining our compliance with the 70% qualifying asset requirement of Section 55(a) under the 1940 Act, we treat a TRS reference asset as a qualifying asset if the obligor associated with the TRS reference asset is an eligible portfolio company and as a non-qualifying asset if the obligor is not an eligible portfolio company.
 
The collateral required to be posted under the TRS was initially held in the custody of The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York, as custodian (“BNS Trust”), pursuant to a custodial agreement (the “BNS Custodian Agreement”) among us, Halifax Funding, BNS, and BNS Trust.  Effective July 22, 2013, BNS Trust resigned as custodian in connection with the TRS, and the BNS Custodian Agreement was terminated without any early termination penalties incurred by us or Halifax Funding.  The resignation of BNS Trust was made in connection with broader decision by BNS to discontinue its custody business operations in the United States.
 
In connection with the termination of the BNS Custodian Agreement, Halifax Funding and BNS entered into a Control Agreement dated as of July 22, 2013 (the “Control Agreement”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company, as custodian (the “Custodian”).  Pursuant to an amendment to the TRS, the Custodian succeeds BNS Trust as the custodian in connection with the TRS.  Under the terms and conditions of the Control Agreement, which are in all material respects substantially the same as those of the BNS Custodian Agreement, the Custodian will maintain and perform certain custodial services with respect to the collateral under the TRS and the obligations of the Custodian will continue until BNS has notified the Custodian in writing that all obligations of Halifax Funding under the TRS have been satisfied or the Control Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms.
 
On July 22, 2013, we, Halifax Funding, BNS and BNS Trust entered into an Amending Agreement (the “Amending Agreement”), which effected the following amendments to the TRS Agreements:
 
The Amending Agreement establishes a new defined term, namely, a “Credit Rating Decline Event,” which encompasses certain specified downgrades of BNS’s credit rating by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services or Moody’s Investors Services, Inc.  The Amending Agreement further provides that if, at any time following the occurrence of a Credit Rating Decline Event, Halifax Funding were to elect to terminate the TRS, then Halifax Funding would not be obligated to make certain otherwise required make-whole payments to BNS (provided that the Credit Rating Decline Event is continuing at the time of such election).
 
The Amending Agreement implements certain revisions to the TRS Agreements to reflect (i) the termination of the BNS Custodian Agreement, (ii) the entry into the Control Agreement by the parties thereto, and (iii) the related resignation of BNS Trust, and succession of the Custodian, as custodian in connection with the TRS.
 
The Amending Agreement amends the TRS Agreement to (i) include specified U.S.-dollar-denominated, negotiable, certificated, certificates of deposit within the definition of “Eligible Collateral,” at a 100% Valuation Percentage (as defined in the TRS Agreements) if issued by BNS, or a 95% Valuation Percentage if not issued by BNS, and (ii) effect certain associated conforming changes to the TRS Agreements.  Prior to the Amending Agreement, cash was the only Eligible Collateral.

Distributions Paid and Declared
 
We pay our monthly distributions in the form of cash. Shareholders may elect to reinvest their distributions as additional shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. Any distributions reinvested under our distribution reinvestment plan remain taxable to the U.S. shareholder.
 
We declared our first distribution on September 9, 2011.  The following table reflects the cash distributions per share and the total amount of distributions that we have declared on our common stock during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013:

See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the sources of distributions on a GAAP basis. The performance-based incentive fees as of December 31, 2012 included only the incentive fee on capital gains.  The performance-based incentive fees as of December 31, 2011 included an earned subordinated incentive fee on income of $176,847 and an unearned incentive fee on capital gains of $105,723.  The unearned incentive fee on capital gains payable to the Advisors as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, represents a non-cash expense, and is considered an additional source of distributions.  Accordingly, the net investment income before unearned incentive fees was $17.67 million and $0.96 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and represented 76% and 112%, respectively of declared distributions over the same period.
 
Approximately 50% of the distributions we paid in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 were reinvested in shares of our common stock at the prevailing net offering price per share at the time of distribution payments and represent an additional source of capital to invest in portfolio companies. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the sources of distributions on a GAAP basis.  Paid distributions that exceed taxable income available for distributions are recorded as a return of capital to our shareholders and that final determination is conducted after the end of the calendar year.  The following table presents potential additional sources of taxable income available for distributions, estimated as of June 30, 2013; events subsequent to June 30, 2013 may materially alter the year-end book-tax adjustments that ultimately determine the sources of required and paid distributions.

The above table does not present all adjustments to calculate taxable income available for distributions.  The final determination of taxable income, as well as the tax classifications of the 2013 calendar year paid distributions, is made annually at the end of the year. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
We estimate that 99.5% of our distributions paid in the six months ended June 30, 2013 were covered by estimated taxable income available for distributions.  We routinely disclose the sources of paid distributions to our shareholders on periodic reports that accompany (i) quarterly account statements and (ii) monthly distribution checks that are prepared and directly sent by our transfer agent to our shareholders. We do not expect to use equity capital or borrowed funds to pay distributions to shareholders nor do we expect our shareholders to incur a return of capital on a tax basis in connection with paid distributions for the full 2013 calendar year.
 
On June 17, 2013, our board of directors declared a distribution of $0.015004 per share for nine record dates beginning July 2, 2013 and ending on August 27, 2013. The distributions will be paid to shareholders at the end of each month.

Results of Operations
 
Results comparisons for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
 
Set forth below are our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012. The growth of our investment portfolio since June 30, 2012 is primarily due to  the increase in equity capital from our offering, and this increase in both (i) capital available for investment, including borrowed funds, and (ii) investment activity contributed to significant increases in investment income, operating expenses, net investment income and net assets between the comparative periods, as discussed below.
 
Investment income
 
Investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $20.53 million and $6.25 million, respectively.  The largest component of investment income was interest income of $19.50 million and $6.25 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in interest income is due primarily to the growth of our investment portfolio over the last year. Incremental amounts of equity capital that we received as net proceeds from our offering on a weekly basis were deployed throughout the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 in the acquisition of investment securities issued by portfolio companies. We also generated fee income of $0.93 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013, earned as structuring service fees in connection with Co-Investment Transactions. We did not earn any fee income during the three months ended June 30, 2012. We expect our investment portfolio to continue to grow during the remainder of 2013 and, accordingly, we believe that reported investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is not representative of our stabilized performance or our future performance. We expect further increases in investment income in future periods due to (i) an increasing proportion of investments held for the entire period relative to the proportion of incremental net investment activity during each quarter, (ii) a growing base of investments in portfolio company that we expect to result from the expected increases in equity capital available to us for investment purposes from our offering and (iii) additional structuring service fees that may be earned on Co-Investment Transactions. The interest income earned by the TRS reference assets is not included in investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, but rather it is included in the fair value of the TRS, and eventually recorded as part of realized gain or loss on derivative instruments in connection with quarterly TRS settlement payments.
 
Operating expenses
 
Our total operating expenses were $6.97 million and $3.13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our operating expenses included $6.49 million and $1.62 million in base management fees attributed to the investment advisory services of our Advisors for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our Advisors are also eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. We recorded a reduction in performance-based incentive fee expense of $4.07 million and $0.34 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This expense reduction was directly attributable to our net realized and unrealized loss of approximately $10.17 million and $1.64 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, since our accrual for incentive fees on capital gains tracks the overall changes in our realized and unrealized gains (losses). Additionally, we recently implemented a change in the computation of performance-based incentive fees that effectively reduces the amount of incentive fees on capital gains that the Advisors can earn from the TRS investment and this change partly contributed to a reduction in performance incentive fees in the three months ended June 30, 2013.  As discussed in “Note 6. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” in our condensed consolidated financial statements, the calculation of performance-based incentive fees disregards any net realized and unrealized gains associated with the TRS interest spread.  See the Results Comparisons for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 for a discussion of whether the cumulative performance-based incentive fees were earned and payable to our Advisors.

Prior period payments of incentive fees on capital gains are equal to $0.
 
We recorded interest expense of $1.54 million and $0.51 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily in connection with borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. The increase in interest expense is attributable to the increase in our weighted average debt outstanding to $218.89 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $66.62 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Our other operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 include $1.55 million and $0.08 million in offering expense, $0.48 million and $0.26 million in administrative services expenses, $0.32 million and $0.35 million in professional services expense, $0.13 million and $0.03 million in custodian and accounting fees, $0.08 million and $0.05 million in director fees and expenses and $0.45 million and $0.20 million in other expenses, respectively.  We also incurred organization expenses of $0.37 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012.
 
As our asset base and number of shareholders have grown, our general and administrative expenses have increased accordingly, but at a slower rate compared to the growth rate in the asset base. We expect certain variable operating expenses to continue to increase due to the anticipated growth in the size of our asset base and the number of active shareholder accounts. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the annualized ratio of core operating expenses (excluding investment advisory fees, interest expense and reimbursement of organization and offering expenses, and including net expense support) to average net assets was 0.65%, as compared to 1.26% for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  A significant portion of operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was offset by the Advisors’ Expense Support Payments (as defined and discussed below under “—Contractual Obligations —Expense Support Agreement”). Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may also increase or decrease our overall operating expenses and expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance, an increase or reduction in borrowed funds, and changes in LIBOR base interest rates, among other factors.
 
Expense Support Payments and Reimbursement Payments - Expense Support Payments from the Advisors were $0.63 million and we accrued $0.30 million as probable Reimbursement Payment obligation for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The provisions of the Expense Support Agreement that provide for Expense Support Payments from the Advisors to us were not extended beyond June 30, 2012, and therefore there were no Expense Support Payments from the Advisors for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Additionally, we paid $1.83 million and accrued $1.14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as probable Reimbursement Payment obligation relative to the cumulative Expense Support Payments of $2.97 million. Accordingly, our payments and accrual of Reimbursement Payments equals 100% of cumulative Expense Support Payments as of June 30, 2013 and there were no further accruals of Reimbursement Payments during the three months ended June 30, 2013.  (See “—Contractual Agreements, —Expense Support Agreement,” below for further details about the Expense Support Agreement. Also see “Note 6. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” included within our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the Expense Support Payments and Reimbursement Payments.)
 
Net investment income
 
Our net investment income totaled $13.57 million ($0.15 per share) and $3.71 million ($0.17 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The primary drivers of variation in net investment income per share are (i) the significant decrease in performance-based incentive fees during the three month period ended June 30, 2013 and (ii) the receipt of expense support payments from Advisors in the three months ended June 2012.  The decline in net investment income per share can also be partly attributed to the TRS Portfolio, which is not a contributor to GAAP net investment income since the  TRS Portfolio collected and accrued interest income and TRS financing charges are included in the TRS fair value, and eventually recorded as part of realized gain or loss on derivative instruments in connection with quarterly TRS settlement payments.  The table below shows net investment income and net investment income per share for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, before the effects of unearned performance-based incentive fees and expense support, which we refer to as adjusted net investment income (non-GAAP).

Net realized gain
 
We sold investments and received principal payments of $238.98 million and $17.68 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2013, from which we realized net gains of $3.58 million.  Our net realized gain on derivative instruments of $1.78 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was comprised of a $2.29 million realized gain on the TRS and a $0.51 million realized loss on foreign currency forward contracts.  The net realized loss on foreign currency transactions was an additional $0.41 million. We sold investments and received principal payments of $17.27 million and $7.03 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2012, from which we realized a net gain of $0.54 million.  We also realized a net gain on foreign currency transactions of $0.05 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the net change in unrealized depreciation on investments totaled $14.47 million, the net change in unrealized depreciation on derivative instruments totaled $0.63 million and the net change in unrealized depreciation on foreign currency translation totaled $0.02 million. The change in unrealized appreciation on investments was primarily driven by price declines in our fixed rate debt investments, which resulted from an increase in the US Treasury note interest yield and commensurate expansion in required yield on high yield bonds.  The net change in unrealized depreciation on derivative instruments consisted of net unrealized depreciation on the TRS Portfolio of $1.87 million and net unrealized appreciation on foreign currency forward contracts of $1.24 million.  The net change in TRS unrealized depreciation consisted of (i) spread interest income of $1.82 million, (ii) an increase in realized gains on the TRS reference assets of $2.87 million and (iii) unrealized depreciation on the TRS reference assets of $6.56 million.  For the three months ended June 30, 2012, there was a decrease in net unrealized depreciation of $2.22 million, comprised of a change in net unrealized depreciation on investments of $2.10 million and a change in net unrealized depreciation on foreign currency translation $0.12 million.
 
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $3.39 million and $2.08 million, respectively.
 
Results Comparisons for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
 
Investment income
 
Investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $35.88 million and $9.63 million, respectively.  The largest component of investment income was interest income of $34.74 million and $9.62 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in investment income is due primarily to the growth of our investment portfolio over the last year. Incremental amounts of equity capital that we received as net proceeds from our offering on a weekly basis were deployed throughout the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 in the acquisition of investment securities issued by portfolio companies. We also generated fee income of $0.95 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013, in the form of structuring service fees earned on Co-Investment Transactions.  We did not earn any fee income during the six months ended June 30, 2012. We expect our investment portfolio to continue to grow during the remainder of 2013 and, accordingly, we believe that reported investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is not representative of our stabilized performance or our future performance. We expect further increases in investment income in future periods due to (i) an increasing proportion of investments held for the entire period relative to the proportion of incremental net investment activity during each quarter, (ii) a growing base of portfolio company investments that we expect to result from the expected increases in equity capital available to us for investment purposes from our offering and borrowed capital, and (iii) additional structuring service fees earned on Co-Investment Transactions. The interest income earned by the TRS reference assets is not included in investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, but rather it is included in the TRS fair value, and eventually recorded as part of realized gain or loss on derivative instruments in connection with quarterly TRS settlement payments.
 
Operating expenses
 
Our total operating expenses were $19.78 million and $6.34 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our operating expenses included $11.35 million and $2.52 million in base management fees attributed to the investment advisory services of our Advisors for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our Advisors are also eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. We recorded performance-based incentive fee expense of $0.14 million and $0.53 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, we recently implemented a change in the computation of performance-based incentive fees that effectively reduces the amount of incentive fees on capital gains that the Advisors can earn from the TRS investment. As discussed in “Note 6. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” in our condensed consolidated financial statements, the calculation of performance-based incentive fees disregards any net realized and unrealized gains associated with the TRS interest spread. A portion of performance-based incentive fees on capital gains is accrued with respect to net unrealized appreciation in our investment portfolio and derivative instruments, although no such performance-based incentive fee on capital gains with respect to such net unrealized appreciation is payable by us unless and until the net unrealized appreciation is actually realized in a cumulative amount that exceeds any unrealized depreciation that is recorded in our investment portfolio. The actual amount of performance-based incentive fees that are due and payable to the Advisors is determined at the end of the calendar year.  As of December 31, 2012 the Advisors had not received, nor earned, any payment of incentive fees on capital gains since the inception of the Company.

The following table illustrates that none of the recorded incentive fee on capital gains would potentially be payable to the Advisors if (i) the cumulative net realized gains were to remain unchanged, and (ii) the unrealized depreciation in the investment portfolio was to remain unchanged through the end of the current year.  However, the relativity between Cumulative net realized gains and unrealized depreciation have the potential to change materially based on subsequent investment disposition activity and changes in market values of investments contributing to unrealized depreciation in the portfolio.

Prior period payments of incentive fees on capital gains are equal to $0.
 
We recorded interest expense of $2.85 million and $0.83 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily in connection with borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. The increase in interest expense is attributable to the increase in our weighted average debt outstanding to $217.53 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $62.11 million the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
Our other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 include $2.65 million and $0.08 million in offering expense, $0.90 million and $0.43 million in administrative services expenses, $0.67 million and $0.56 million in professional services expense, $0.21 million and $0.07 million in custodian and accounting fees, $0.15 million and $0.10 million in director fees and expenses and $0.86 million and $0.32 million in other expenses, respectively.  We also incurred organization expenses of $0.90 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
As our asset base and number of shareholders have grown, our general and administrative expenses have increased accordingly, but at a slower rate compared to the growth rate in the asset base. We expect certain variable operating expenses to continue to increase because of the anticipated growth in the size of our asset base and the number of open shareholder accounts. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the ratio of annualized core operating expenses (excluding investment advisory fees, interest expense and reimbursement of organization and offering expenses, and including net expense support) to average net assets was 0.98%. This ratio is not comparable to the six months ended June 30, 2012, because during that period the Advisors’ Expense Support Payments (as defined and discussed below under “—Contractual Obligations —Expense Support Agreement”) exceeded our core operating expenses. We generally expect core operating expenses to decline as a percentage of our net assets during periods of asset growth over the next several calendar quarters. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may also increase or decrease our overall operating expenses and expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance, an increase or reduction in borrowed funds, and changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.
 
Expense Support Payments and Reimbursement Payments - Expense Support Payments from the Advisors were $1.59 million and we accrued $0.30 million as probable Reimbursement Payment obligation for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The provisions of the Expense Support Agreement that provide for Expense Support Payments from the Advisors to us were not extended beyond June 30, 2012, and therefore there were no Expense Support Payments from the Advisors for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Additionally, we paid $1.83 million and accrued $1.14 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as probable Reimbursement Payment obligation relative to the cumulative Expense Support Payments of $2.97 million. Accordingly, our payments and accrual of reimbursement of Expense Support Payments equals 100% of cumulative Expense Support Payments as of June 30, 2013.  (See “—Contractual Agreements, —Expense Support Agreement,” below for further details about the Expense Support Agreement. Also see “Note 6. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” included within our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the Expense Support Payments and Reimbursement Payments.)

Net investment income
 
Our net investment income totaled $14.97 million ($0.18 per share) and $4.85 million ($0.29 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The primary drivers of the decrease in net investment income per share are (i) accrued reimbursement of expense support payable to the Advisors in the six month period ended June 30, 2013 and (ii) the receipt of expense support payments from Advisors in the six months ended June 2012. Additionally, the TRS Portfolio is not a contributor to GAAP net investment income. The interest income earned by the TRS Portfolio is included in the fair value of the TRS, and eventually recorded as part of realized gain or loss on derivative instruments in connection with quarterly TRS settlement payments.  The table below shows net investment income and net investment income per share for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, before the effects of unearned performance-based incentive fees and expense support, which we refer to as adjusted net investment income (non-GAAP).

We sold investments and received principal payments of $288.50 million and $59.70 million, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2013, from which we realized net gains of $4.59 million.  Our net realized gain on derivative instruments of $2.65 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was comprised of a $2.53 million realized gain on the TRS and a $0.12 million realized gain on foreign currency forward contracts.  The net realized loss on foreign currency transactions was $0.40 million. We sold investments and received principal payments of $38.81 million and $9.40 million, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2012, from which we realized a net gain of $1.27 million.  We also realized a net gain on foreign currency transactions of $0.04 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the net change in unrealized depreciation on investments totaled $0.97 million, the net change in unrealized appreciation on derivative instruments totaled $6.00 million and the net change in unrealized depreciation on foreign currency translation totaled $0.01 million. The change in unrealized appreciation on investments was primarily driven by price declines in our fixed rate debt investments, which resulted from an increase in the US Treasury note interest yield.  The net change in unrealized appreciation on derivative instruments consisted of net unrealized appreciation on the TRS Portfolio of $4.61 million and net unrealized appreciation on foreign currency forward contracts of $1.39 million.  The net change in TRS unrealized appreciation consisted of (i) spread interest income of $4.33 million, (ii) realized gains on the TRS reference assets of $3.19 million and (iii) unrealized depreciation on the TRS reference assets of $2.91 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the net change in unrealized appreciation on investments was $1.52 million and the net change in unrealized depreciation on foreign currency translation was $0.14 million.
 
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $26.84 million and $7.55 million, respectively.
 
Net Assets, Net Asset Value per Share and Total Investment Returns
 
Net assets increased $400.54 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The most significant increase in net assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was attributable to capital transactions including (i) new issuance of shares of common stock, and (ii) reinvestment of distributions in the combined amount of $406.74 million. Net investment income contributed $14.97 million to the growth in net assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Other increases in net assets were attributable to (i) unrealized appreciation on investments, derivative instruments and foreign currency translation of $5.03 million and (ii) net realized gains of $6.84 million. Distributions to shareholders in the amount of $31.54 million and the repurchase of shares of common stock in the amount of $1.50 million contributed to a reduction in net assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Net assets increased $218.86 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The most significant increase in net assets during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was attributable to capital transactions including (i) new issuance of shares of common stock, and (ii) reinvestment of distributions in the combined amount of $217.40 million. Net investment income contributed $4.85 million to the growth in net assets during the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Other increases in net assets were attributable to (i) unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translation of $1.39 million and (ii) net realized gains of $1.31 million. Distributions to shareholders in the amount of $6.09 million contributed to a reduction in net assets during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
Our net asset value per share was $9.78 and $9.75 on June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. After considering (i) the overall appreciation in net asset value per share, (ii) paid distributions of approximately $0.39 per share, and (iii) the assumed reinvestment of those distributions at 90% of the prevailing offering price per share, then the total investment return was 4.30% for shareholders who held our shares over the entire six-month period ending June 30, 2013.
 
Initial shareholders who subscribed to the Offering in June 2011 with an initial investment of $10,000 and an initial purchase price equal to $9.00 per share (public offering price net of sales load) have seen the value of their investment grow by 27.0% (see chart below), or an annualized return of 12.5%. Initial shareholders who subscribed to the Offering in June 2011 with an initial investment of $10,000 and an initial purchase price equal to $10.00 per share (the initial public offering price) have registered a total investment return of 14.3%, or an annualized return of 6.8%. Over the same time period the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index, a primary measure of senior debt covering the U.S. leveraged loan market which currently consists of approximately 1,100 credit facilities throughout numerous industries, and the Merrill Lynch US High Yield Master II Index, a primary measure of subordinated debt consisting of approximately 2,000 high yield corporate bonds, registered cumulative total returns of approximately 11.1% and 17.2% in the period from June 17, 2011 to June 30, 2013, respectively.

The calculations for the Growth of $10,000 Initial Investment are based upon the following assumptions: (i) an initial investment of $10,000 in our common stock at the beginning of the period, at a share price of $10.00 per share (including sales load) and $9.00 per share (excluding sales load),  (ii) the reinvestment of monthly distributions in accordance with our distribution reinvestment plan (iii) the sale of the entire investment position at the net asset value per share on the last day of the period; and (iv)  the cash payment for distributions payable to shareholders, if any, on the last day of the period.

Our shares are illiquid investments for which there is not a secondary market, and we do not expect a secondary market in our shares to develop in the future. You should not expect to be able to resell your shares regardless of how we perform. If you are able to sell your shares, you will likely receive less than your purchase price. Our net asset value, cumulative returns and annualized returns — which are based in part upon determinations of fair value of Level 3 investments by our board of directors, not active market quotations — are inherently uncertain. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
 
Comparisons for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011
 
Set forth below are our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.  Our portfolio investment activity commenced on July 1, 2011 and our investment portfolio growth since July 1, 2011 is primarily due to growth in equity and borrowed capital, and this rise in both capital available for investment and investment activity primarily accounted for the significant increases in investment income, operating expenses, net investment income and net assets between the comparative periods, as discussed below.
 
Investment income
 
We generated investment income of $35.58 million and $0.10 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our investment income primarily consists of interest earned on senior and subordinated debt investments held in our investment portfolio. This comparative increase in investment income is due to the growth of our investment portfolio since commencing investment operations in July 2011. The level of interest income we receive is directly related to (i) our rate of investing equity capital and borrowed funds into the investment securities of portfolio companies, (ii) the weighted average balance of interest-bearing investments throughout the period, and (iii) the weighted average yield of our investments.  The interest earned by the TRS reference assets is not recorded as investment income, but rather included in the value of the TRS, and eventually recorded as part of realized gain or loss on derivative instruments in connection with quarterly TRS settlement dates.
 
Operating expenses
 
Our total operating expenses were $19.65 million and $1.48 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our operating expenses included $9.19 million and $0.35 million in base management fees attributed to the investment advisory services of CNL and KKR for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our operating expenses also include administrative services expenses attributed to CNL of $0.75 million and $0.16 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
 
Our Advisors are eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. We recorded incentive fee expense of $1.98 million and $0.28 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. A significant portion of incentive fees on capital gains is accrued with respect to net unrealized appreciation in our investment portfolio, although no such incentive fee is actually payable by us with respect to such net unrealized appreciation unless and until the net unrealized appreciation is actually realized in a cumulative amount that exceeds any unrealized depreciation in our investment portfolio. The actual amount due and payable to the Advisors is determined at the end of the calendar year.  As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the cumulative realized gains were $3.05 million and $0.01 million, respectively, and the unrealized depreciation in our investment portfolio was $8.76 million and $0.49 million, respectively, therefore the Advisors have not received, nor earned, any payment of incentive fees on capital gains since the inception of the Company.
 
We recorded interest expense of $2.87 million and $0.09 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in connection with borrowing under our revolving credit facility which became effective on August 23, 2011. Professional services expenses, primarily consisting of audit and legal fees, grew to $1.09 million during the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $0.23 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, reflecting (i) an increase in routine external audit services and (ii) legal services in connection with our SEC exemptive relief application and (iii) other corporate legal services.
 
As our asset base and number of investors have grown, our general and administrative expenses have increased accordingly, but at a slower rate compared to the growth rate in the asset base. We expect certain variable operating expenses to continue to increase because of the anticipated growth in the size of our asset base and the number of open shareholder accounts. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the ratio of core operating expenses (excluding investment advisory fees, interest expense and reimbursement of organization and offering expenses, and including net expense support) to average net assets was 1.23%.  All operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011, with the exception of unearned incentive fees on capital gains in the amount of $105,723, were offset by the Advisors’ Expense Support Payments (as defined and discussed under “—Contractual Obligations —Expense Support Agreement”). We generally expect core operating expenses to decline as a percentage of our net assets during periods of asset growth over the next several calendar quarters. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may also increase or decrease our overall operating expenses and our overall expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.

Expense Support Payments and Reimbursement Payments - Expense Support Payments from the Advisors were $1.59 million and $1.38 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 and for the period from July 1, 2011 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2011, respectively. The provisions of the Expense Support Agreement that provide for Expense Support Payments to us from our Advisors terminated by their terms on, and thus the Advisors’ commitment to make Expense Support Payments to us ended on, June 30, 2012.  We accrued $1.83 million as probable Reimbursement Payment obligation relative to the cumulative Expense Support Payments of $3.0 million as of December 31, 2012. See “—Contractual Obligations —Expense Support Agreement,” below for further details about the Expense Support Agreement. Also see “Note 6. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” included within our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the Expense Support Payments and Reimbursement Payments.

Net investment income
 
Our net investment income totaled $15.69 million ($0.50 per share) and $0.85 million ($0.67 per share) for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The higher net investment income per share in 2011 as compared to 2012 is primarily due to nearly 100% expense support from our Advisors during the year ended December 31, 2011, and partially offset by a significant increase in total investment income per share during the year ended December 31, 2012.  Additionally, the portfolio of TRS reference assets is not a source of investment income or a contributor to net investment income. The interest earned by the TRS reference assets is included in the value of the TRS, and eventually recorded as part of realized gain or loss on derivative instruments in connection with quarterly TRS settlement dates.
 
Net realized gain
 
We sold investments and received principal payments of $358.60 million and $51.93 million, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2012, from which we realized net gains of $3.48 million.  Our net realized loss on derivative instruments of $0.43 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 was comprised entirely of losses on foreign currency forward contracts.  The net realized loss on foreign currency transactions was an additional $0.01 million. We sold investments of $0.48 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, from which we realized a net gain of $0.01 million. The quarterly TRS settlement payments that begin in January 2013 will be recorded as net realized gains and losses on derivative instruments.
 
Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation
 
For the year ended December 31, 2012, the net change in unrealized appreciation on investments totaled $5.76 million, the net change in unrealized appreciation on derivative instruments totaled $1.20 million and the net change in unrealized depreciation on foreign currency translation totaled $0.04 million. The change in unrealized appreciation on investments was primarily driven by the appreciation in fair values, including tighter credit spreads, as recorded in several investment positions held in our investment portfolio.  The net change in unrealized appreciation on derivative instruments consisted of net unrealized appreciation on the TRS of $1.35 million and net unrealized depreciation on foreign currency forward contracts of $0.15 million.  The net change in unrealized appreciation on the TRS consisted of spread interest income of $0.94 million, realized losses of $0.35 million on the TRS reference assets and an unrealized gain on the TRS reference assets of $0.76 million.  For the year ended December 31, 2011, the net change in unrealized depreciation on investments was $0.48 million and the net change in unrealized appreciation on foreign currency translation was $0.04 million.

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations
 
For the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $25.65 million and $1.38 million, respectively.
 
Net Assets, Net Asset Value per Share, Annual Investment Return and Total Return since Inception
 
Net assets increased $546.32 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The most significant increase in net assets during the year ended December 31, 2012 was attributable to the new issuance of shares of common stock and reinvestment of distributions, net of share repurchases, in the combined amount of $543.99 million. Net investment income contributed $15.69 million to the growth in net assets during the year ended December 31, 2012.  Other increases in net assets were attributable to (i) unrealized appreciation on investments, derivative instruments and foreign currency translation of $6.92 million and (ii) net realized gains of $3.04 million. Distributions to shareholders in the amount of $23.32 million contributed to a reduction in net assets during the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
Net assets increased $64.96 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The most significant increase in net assets during the year ended December 31, 2011 was attributable to the new issuance of shares of common stock and reinvestment of distributions in the combined amount of $64.44 million. Net investment income contributed $0.85 million to the growth in net assets during the year ended December 31, 2011.  Other increases in net assets were attributable to (i) unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translation of $0.52 million and (ii) net realized gains of $0.01 million. Distributions to shareholders in the amount of $0.86 million contributed to a reduction in net assets during the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
Our net asset value per share was $9.75 and $9.21 on December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. After considering (i) the overall changes in net asset value per share, (ii) paid distributions of approximately $0.76 per share during the year ended December 31, 2012, and (iii) the assumed reinvestment of those distributions at 90% of the prevailing offering price per share, then the total investment return was 14.3% for shareholders who held our shares over the entire twelve-month period ending December 31, 2012.
 
Initial shareholders who subscribed to the Offering in June 2011 with an initial investment of $10,000 and an initial purchase price equal to $9.00 per share (public offering price net of sales load) have seen the value of their investment grow by 21.8% (see chart below), or an annualized return of 13.6%.  Investment performance is presented in the narrative without regard to sales load that may be incurred by shareholders in the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock. Initial shareholders who subscribed to the Offering in June 2011 with an initial investment of $10,000 and an initial purchase price equal to $10.00 per share (the initial public offering price) have registered a total investment return of 9.6%, or an annualized return of 6.1%. Over the same time period the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index, a primary measure of senior debt covering the U.S. leveraged loan market which currently consists of approximately 1,100 credit facilities throughout numerous industries, and the Merrill Lynch US High Yield Master II Index, a primary measure of subordinated debt consisting of approximately 2,000 high yield corporate bonds, had total returns of approximately 8.6% and 15.5% respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2013.
 
Contractual Obligations
 
Investment Advisory Agreements – We have entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with CNL for the overall management of our investment activities. We and CNL have also entered into the Sub-Advisory Agreement with KKR, under which KKR is responsible for the day-to-day management of our investment portfolio. CNL compensates KKR for advisory services that it provides to the Company with 50% of the base management fees and performance-based incentive fees that CNL receives under the Investment Advisory Agreement. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, CNL earns a management fee equal to an annual rate of 2% of our average gross assets (including assets purchased with borrowed funds and unsettled trades, unrealized appreciation or depreciation on total return swaps and collateral posted with custodian in connection with TRS, but excluding deferred offering expense), and an incentive fee based on our performance. The incentive fee is comprised of the following two parts:
 
 
(i)
a subordinated incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, that is paid quarterly if earned, and it is computed as the sum of (A) 100% of quarterly pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 1.75% of average adjusted capital up to a limit of 0.4375% of average adjusted capital, and (B) 20% of pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 2.1875% of average adjusted capital, and
 
 
92

 
 
(ii)
an incentive fee on capital gains that is paid annually if earned, and it is equal to 20% of (A) all realized gains on a cumulative basis from inception, net of (i) all realized losses on a cumulative basis, (ii) unrealized depreciation at year-end and (iii) disregarding any net realized gains associated with the TRS interest spread (which represents the difference between (a) the interest and fees received on total return swaps, and (b) the financing fees paid to the total return swaps counterparty), and subtracting (B) the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital gains.
 
The terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement entitle CNL (and indirectly KKR) to receive up to 5% of gross proceeds in connection with the Offering as reimbursement for organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors on our behalf. The Advisors waived our requirement to reimburse them for organization and offering expenses for the period from June 17, 2011 through January 31, 2012. The waiver of the reimbursement requirements did not reduce the amount of organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors that are eligible for reimbursement in future periods. Beginning February 1, 2012, we implemented an expense reimbursement rate equal to 0.75% of gross Offering proceeds to initiate the reimbursement of organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors.  The reimbursement rate was increased to 1.0% of gross Offering proceeds on March 1, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the Advisors have been reimbursed in the amounts of $0.90 million for organization expenses and $6.55 million for offering expenses, including any payable balances for reimbursement of offering expenses. As of June 30, 2013, the Advisors carried a balance of approximately $1.63 million for expenses incurred on our behalf in connection with the Offering, net of (i) incremental offering expenses incurred by the Advisors on our behalf and (ii) our reimbursement payments to the Advisors and any payable balances for reimbursement of offering expenses.
 
The Advisors are expected to continue to incur offering expenses on our behalf throughout the remainder of Offering period and the reimbursement of the Advisor for offering expenses they incur on our behalf is expected to continue through the termination date of the Offering.  We expect the reimbursement rate to remain at or below 1.0% for the remainder of the Offering.  See “Note 6 Agreements and Related Party Transactions” in our condensed consolidated financial statements for expanded discussion of the Investment Advisory Agreements.
 
Expense Support Agreement - We are party to an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement with CNL and KKR (as amended, the “Expense Support Agreement”) pursuant to which CNL and KKR jointly and severally agreed to reimburse us for a specified percentage of our operating expenses (an “Expense Support Payment”) during the Expense Support Payment Period beginning on June 17, 2011. On March 16, 2012, we and the Advisors entered into an amendment and restatement of the Expense Support Agreement, effective April 1, 2012, that extended the terminal date of the Expense Support Payment Period to June 30, 2012 and reduced the operating expense reimbursement ratio from 65% to 25%.  As of June 30, 2012, the Advisors had incurred $2.97 million of Expense Support Payments. The provisions of the Expense Support Agreement that provide for Expense Support Payments to us from our Advisors terminated by their terms on, and thus the Advisors’ commitment to make Expense Support Payments to us ended on, June 30, 2012.
 
During the term of the Expense Support Agreement, the Advisors are entitled to an annual year-end reimbursement payment by us for unreimbursed Expense Support Payments made under the Agreement (a “Reimbursement Payment”), but such Reimbursement Payments may only be made within three years after the calendar year in which such Expense Support Payments are made. No Reimbursement Payment may be paid by us to the extent that it would cause our Other Operating Expenses (Other Operating Expenses is equal to Operating Expenses, but excluding base advisory fees and including a Reimbursement Payment) to exceed 1.75% of average net assets attributable to common shares as of the calendar year-end (the “Reimbursement Limit Percentage”).  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we made a Reimbursement Payment of $1.83 million.  As of June 30, 2013 we have accrued an additional $1.14 million for probable Reimbursement Payment obligation. The Company records the liability for the Reimbursement Payments based on a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the end of each reporting period. As of June 30, 2013, all Expense Support Payments received from the Advisors have been either repaid or accrued for probable reimbursement.
 
Revolving Credit Facilities –As discussed above under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources – Credit Facilities,” CCT Funding has entered into revolving credit facilities with Deutsche Bank and BNP. As of June 30, 2013, the credit facilities provided for borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $540.00 million on a committed basis and $169.44 million was borrowed and outstanding under the credit facilities. (See “— Liquidity and Capital Resources — Credit Facilities” above and “Note 11. Revolving Credit Facilities and Borrowings” in our condensed consolidated financial statements for expanded discussion of the revolving credit facilities.)

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ.
 
Our critical accounting policies are described in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly see Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of critical accounting policies. We consider these accounting policies critical because they involve management judgments and assumptions, require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These judgments will affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of recently issued accounting pronouncements. We do not believe that any recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks
 
We are subject to financial market risks, in particular changes in interest rates. Future changes in interest rates will likely have effects on the interest income we earn on our portfolio investments, the fair value of our fixed income investments, the interest rates and interest expenses associates with the money we borrow for investment purposes, and the fair value of loan balances.
 
Subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act, we may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts. Although hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates. During the period from January 1, 2013 to June 30, 2013, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.
 
As of June 30, 2013, approximately 60.5% of our portfolio of debt investments, or approximately $688.91 million measured at par value, featured floating or variable interest rates. The variable interest rate debt investments are usually based on three-month LIBOR (the base rate) and typically have durations of three months after which the base rates are reset to then prevailing three-month LIBOR. At June 30, 2013, approximately 88.0% of our portfolio of variable interest rate debt investments, or approximately $606.19 million measured at par value, featured minimum base rates, or base rate floors, and the weighted average base rate floor for such investments was 1.25%. Variable interest rate investments that feature a base rate floor generally reset to the then prevailing three-month LIBOR only if the reset base rate exceeds the base rate floor on the applicable interest rate reset date, in which cases we may benefit through an increase in interest income from such interest rate adjustments. At June 30, 2013, we held an aggregate investment position of $82.72 million at par value in variable interest rate debt investments that featured variable interest rates without any minimum base rates, or approximately 12.0% of our portfolio of variable interest rate debt investments. In the case of these “no base rate floor” variable interest debt investments held in our portfolio, we may benefit from increases in the base rates that may subsequently result in an increase in interest income from such interest rate adjustments.

Because we borrow money to make investments, our net investment income is partially dependent upon the difference between the interest rate at which we invest borrowed funds and the interest rate at which we borrow funds. In periods of rising interest rates and when we have borrowed capital with floating interest rates, then our interest expense would increase, which could increase our financing costs and reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we continue to acquire and hold fixed-rate debt investments. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. Pursuant to the amended terms of our Deutsche Bank Credit Facility as discussed above (see “— Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — Credit Facilities”), CCT Funding borrows at a floating base rate of (i) one-month LIBOR plus 1.70% for Tranche A Loans ($69.44 million loan balance outstanding and $5.56 million unused commitment), (ii) three-month LIBOR plus 1.50% for Tranche B1 Loans ($65.00 million unused commitment),  (iii) three-month LIBOR plus 2.325% for Tranche B2 Loans ($100.00 million unused commitment) and (iv) three-month LIBOR plus 2.325% for Tranche D Loans ($100.00 million unused commitment). Additionally, pursuant to the terms of our BNP Credit Facility, we borrow at a floating base rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.10% for the credit facility borrowings ($100.00 million loan balance outstanding and $100.00 million unused commitment) Therefore, if we were to completely draw down the unused Tranche A Loans commitment and the maximum Tranche B1, B2 and D Loans commitment amounts in our Deutsche Bank facility and the maximum commitment amount in our BNP facility, we expect that our weighted average direct interest cost will increase by approximately 38 bps, as compared to our current weighted average direct interest cost for borrowed funds. We expect that any further expansion of the current revolving credit facilities, or any future credit facilities that we or any subsidiary may enter into, will also be based on a floating base rate. As a result, we are subject to continuous risks relating to changes in market interest rates.
 
Under the terms of the TRS agreements between Halifax Funding and BNS, Halifax Funding pays interest to BNS at a floating rate based on three-month LIBOR in exchange for the right to receive the economic benefits of a portfolio of TRS reference assets having a maximum aggregate notional amount of $500.00 million.
 
Assuming that the consolidated schedule of investments as of June 30, 2013 was to remain constant with regards to the investment portfolio and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate sensitivity or investment portfolio allocations, the upper section of the table below presents an estimated and hypothetical increase in interest income due to an immediate and persistent 12-month increase in the base rates associated with our debt investments featuring variable interest rates.
 
The middle section of the table below also presents sensitivity analysis for a persistent 12-month increase in the base interest rates that apply to our floating rate credit facility and the associated increase in interest expense, as well as the net effect of change in interest rates on the TRS unrealized appreciation (depreciation).  For persistent LIBOR increases of less than 150 basis points, the increase in interest expense may be partially offset by the hypothetical increase in interest income associated with our floating rate debt investments; for a persistent LIBOR increase greater than 200 basis points, then the increase in interest expense may be wholly offset by the hypothetical increase in interest income associated with our floating rate debt investments, in both cases assuming that the consolidated schedule of investments as of June 30, 2013 was to remain constant with regards to the Investment Portfolio and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate sensitivity or investment portfolio allocations.

Pursuant to the TRS Agreements, Halifax Funding receives from BNS all collected interest and fees derived from  the TRS reference assets and pays to BNS interest at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR+80 bps per annum on the settled notional amount of TRS reference assets. As of June 30, 2013, 58.8% of the TRS reference assets, or approximately $82.45 million measured at par value, featured floating or variable interest rates.  At June 30, 2013, 100% of the TRS reference assets with variable interest rates featured minimum base rate floors, or approximately $82.45 million measured at par value, and the weighted average base rate floor for such TRS reference assets was 1.19%.  As of June 30, 2013, the total notional amount of the portfolio of TRS reference assets was $140.98 million, and the settled notional amount was $212.99 million.  For the purpose of presenting this net interest sensitivity analysis, we have assumed that all TRS reference assets are settled as of June 30, 2013 and that the TRS notional amount would equal $140.98 million upon which the financing payments to BNS are based.
 
The interest rate sensitivity analysis presented above does not consider the potential impact of the changes in value of our debt investments and the net asset value of our common stock in the event of sudden increases in interest rates associated with high yield corporate bonds.  Approximately 39.5% of our debt investment portfolio is invested in fixed interest rate, high yield corporate debt investments.  Rising market interest rates will most likely lead to value declines for high yield corporate bonds and a decline in the net asset value of our common stock, while declining market interest rates will most likely lead to an increase in bond values.

General
 
Under the terms of our articles of incorporation, our authorized capital stock consists solely of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share.There is currently no market for our common stock, and we can offer no assurances that a market for our shares will develop in the future. We do not intend for the shares offered under this prospectus to be listed on any national securities exchange during the offering period. There are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase our stock. No stock has been authorized for issuance under any equity compensation plans. Under Maryland law, our shareholders generally are not personally liable for our debts or obligations.
 
All provisions of our articles of incorporation shall be equally applicable to each shareholder, including but not limited to those pertaining to liquidation, conversion and redemption rights. None of our shares are subject to further calls or to assessments, sinking fund provisions, obligations of the company or potential liabilities associated with ownership of the security (not including investment risks).

Common Stock
 
Under the terms of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, holders of our shares of common stock are entitled to: 
 
one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, with no cumulative voting rights and with a plurality of the votes cast being subject to elect all of the directors standing for election; and 
 
receive ratably our net assets available after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
 
All shares of our common stock, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Under the terms of our articles of incorporation, holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive, appraisal, subscription, redemption, sinking fund, or conversion rights. Shares of our common stock are freely transferable, except where their transfer is restricted by federal and state securities laws or by contract. Under the terms of our articles of incorporation, holders of our common stock will not be subject to further calls or assessments. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to the rights of the holders of any series of our preferred stock which we may designate and issue in the future.
 
The following actions may not be taken without a vote of the following specified proportions of the outstanding shares of our common stock:
 
at least 50%: 
 
appointing a new investment adviser 
 
changing the nature of our business so that we cease to be, or withdraw our election to be treated as a business development company 
 
 
more than 50%: 
 
modifying our articles of incorporation (except as otherwise described herein) or modifying our bylaws to materially adversely affect the rights of the shareholders 
 
selling our assets to either of the Advisors or any of their respective affiliates 
 
selling all or substantially all of our assets other than in the ordinary course of our business 
 
causing the merger or other reorganization of us

at least two-thirds: 
 
amending our articles of incorporation to make our common stock a “redeemable security” 
 
amending our articles of incorporation to convert us, whether by merger or otherwise, from a “closed-end company” to an “open-end company” (as such terms are defined in the 1940 Act)
 
amending the provisions of our articles of incorporation relating to (i) shareholder voting, (ii) director removal and (iii) the amendment of our articles of incorporation and bylaws 
 
removal of one or more directors, except such removal may be only for cause, as is defined in our articles of incorporation.
 
Preferred Stock
 
This offering does not include an offering of preferred stock. However, under the terms of our articles of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series without shareholder approval. The board has discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges, and liquidation preferences of each series of preferred stock. The purpose of authorizing our board of directors to issue preferred stock and determine its rights and preferences is to eliminate delays associated with a shareholder vote on specific issuances. In the event we issue preferred stock, we will supplement this prospectus accordingly. We will not offer preferred stock to our Advisors or their affiliates except on the same terms as offered to all other shareholders.
 
Preferred stock could be issued with rights and preferences that would adversely affect the holders of common stock. Preferred stock could also be used as an anti-takeover device. Every issuance of preferred stock will be required to comply with the requirements of the 1940 Act. The 1940 Act requires that: (1) immediately after issuance and before any distribution is made with respect to our common stock and before any purchase of common stock is made, such preferred stock together with all other senior securities must not exceed an amount equal to 50% of our total assets after deducting the amount of such distribution or purchase price, as the case may be, and (2) the holders of shares of preferred stock, if any are issued, must be entitled as a class to elect two directors at all times and to elect a majority of the directors if distributions on such preferred stock are in arrears by two years or more. Certain matters under the 1940 Act require the separate vote of the holders of any issued and outstanding preferred stock. We believe that the availability for issuance of preferred stock will provide us with increased flexibility in structuring future financings and acquisitions.
 
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification
 
Our articles of incorporation, subject to the conditions set forth under Maryland law, eliminate the personal liability of our shareholders, directors and officers for monetary damages and requires us to indemnify and hold harmless our officers, directors, employees, controlling persons and agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our articles of incorporation prohibit us from indemnifying an officer, director, employee and controlling person and any other person or entity acting as our agent (which would include, without limitation, our advisor and its affiliates) unless each of the following conditions are met: (i) the party seeking indemnification has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in our best interest; (ii) the party seeking indemnification was acting or performing services on our behalf; (iii) such liability or loss was not the result of (A) negligence or misconduct, in the case that the party seeking indemnification is a director (other than an independent director), or (B) gross negligence or willful misconduct, in the case that the party seeking indemnification is an independent director; and (iv) such indemnification is recoverable only out of our net assets and not from our shareholders.
 
Our articles of incorporation also contain limits on indemnifying against liability arising under the securities laws. Specifically, the SEC takes the position that indemnification against liabilities arising under the Securities Act is contrary to public policy and unenforceable. Indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, controlling persons and agents, including our advisor or its affiliates, will not be allowed for liabilities arising from or out of a violation of state or federal securities laws, unless one or more of the following conditions are met: 
 
there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged material securities law violations as to the indemnitee; 
 
such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the indemnitee; or 
 
a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which the securities were offered as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.
 
 
98

 
 
We will pay or reimburse funds to an indemnitee, including our advisor or an affiliate of our advisor, for reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding if all of the following are satisfied: 
 
the proceeding relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on our behalf; 
 
the party seeking such advancement has provided us with written affirmation of such party’s good faith belief that such party has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification; 
 
the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a shareholder or the legal action is initiated by a shareholder acting in his capacity as such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advancement; and 
 
the party seeking indemnification undertakes to repay the advanced funds to us, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which such party is found not to be entitled to indemnification.
 
Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law
 
The Maryland Business Combination Act, subject to limitations, prohibits certain business combinations between a Maryland corporation (like we are) and an interested shareholder (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock after we had 100 or more beneficial owners or is our affiliate or associate and was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of our then outstanding stock at any time within the two-year period immediately prior to the date in question and after we had 100 or more beneficial owners of our stock) or an affiliate of any interested shareholder, for five years following the most recent date on which the shareholder became an interested shareholder, and thereafter imposes special appraisal rights and supermajority shareholder voting requirements on these combinations. The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act provides that “control shares” of a Maryland corporation (defined as shares which, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the shareholder, entitle the shareholder to exercise, or direct the exercise of, one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing directors) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares”) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by the corporation’s shareholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares.
 
The provisions of these two statutes generally apply to a Maryland corporation unless the corporation’s charter or bylaws exempt the corporation from such provisions. Our articles of incorporation contain provisions that expressly exempt us from the Maryland Business Combination Act and our bylaws contain provisions that expressly exempt us from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act.
 
Classified board of directors
 
Our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms. At each annual meeting of our shareholders, the successors to the class of directors whose term expires at such meeting will be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders held in the third year following the year of their election. Each director holds office for the term to which he or she is elected and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualifies. We believe that the longer time required to elect a majority of a classified board of directors will help to ensure the continuity and stability of our management and policies.
 
Election of directors
 
Our bylaws provide that a plurality of all votes cast at a meeting of shareholders duly called and at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient to elect a director. Each share may be voted for as many individuals as there are directors to be elected and for whose election the share is entitled to be voted. Pursuant to our articles of incorporation, our board of directors may amend the bylaws to alter the vote required to elect directors.
 
Number of directors; vacancies; removal
 
Our articles of incorporation provide that the number of directors will be five (5), which number may be increased or decreased from time to time only by the board of directors in accordance with our bylaws, but shall never be less than the minimum number required by the Maryland General Corporation Law. Our bylaws provide that a majority of our entire board of directors may at any time increase or decrease the number of directors. However, unless our bylaws are amended, the number of directors may never be less than one, which is the minimum number required by the Maryland General Corporation Law, nor more than 11. Any vacancies caused by an increase in the size of the board of directors, or by the death, resignation, or removal of a director may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors in office, even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum, and any director elected to fill a vacancy will serve for the remainder of the full term of the directorship in which the vacancy occurred and until a successor is elected and qualifies, subject to any applicable requirements of the 1940 Act.
 
 
99

 
 
Our articles of incorporation provide that a director may be removed only for cause, as defined in our articles of incorporation, and then only by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast generally in the election of directors.
 
Conflict with 1940 Act
 
Our bylaws provide that, if and to the extent any provision of the Maryland General Corporation Law or any provision of our articles of incorporation or bylaws conflicts with any provision of the 1940 Act, the applicable provision of the 1940 Act will control.
 
Transfer Agent

Relevance of Our Net Asset Value
 
Our net asset value will: 
 
be disclosed in our quarterly and annual financial statements; 
 
be used to determine the price per share that is paid to shareholder participants in our quarterly share repurchase program, and the price per share paid by participants in our distribution reinvestment plan after the conclusion of this offering; 
 
be an input in the computation of fees earned by our Advisors and other service providers whose fees are linked, directly or indirectly, in whole or part to the value of our gross assets; and 
 
be evaluated alongside the net proceeds per share to us from this offering to ensure the amount of net proceeds per share at each subscription closing date is greater than, or equal to, net asset value per share.
 
Allocation of Responsibilities for Determination of Our Net Asset Value
 
Our board of directors – with the assistance of our Advisors, officers and, through them, independent valuation agents – is responsible for the periodic determination of our net asset value. Prior to such determination, our Advisors and officers will calculate, and provide to the audit committee of our board of directors, an estimate of our net asset value. This information will be presented to our audit committee at its quarterly meetings and any other time when a determination of our net asset value is required. Our audit committee will review, and recommend to our board of directors for adoption, our quarterly and annual financial statements for inclusion in our periodic reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K, and such financial statements will include a determination of our net asset value and net asset value per share as of the last day of each calendar quarter. These financial statements will, in turn, be reviewed and approved by our full board of directors.
 
Allocation of Responsibilities for Determination of Fair Value of Our Portfolio Investments
 
Our board of directors – with the assistance of our Advisors, officers and, through them, independent valuation agents – is responsible for determining in good faith the fair value of our portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Our board of directors will make this determination on a quarterly basis and any other time when a decision is required regarding the fair value of our portfolio investments for which market quotations are not available. A determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. The notes to our financial statements will refer to the uncertainty with respect to our fair value estimates and any change in such fair value estimates. We expect that each determination of the fair value of our portfolio investments will be made upon the recommendation of our audit committee.
 
Our board of directors and our audit committee will review and approve our pricing and valuation policies and procedures that will be implemented and followed by our Advisors and officers, and will review and approve any revisions to such policies and procedures.. In addition, we expect that our board of directors will retain one or more independent valuation agents to work with our Advisors and officers to provide additional inputs for consideration by our audit committee and to work directly with our full board of directors, at the board of directors’ request, with respect to the fair value of our portfolio investments.
 
In addition, our board of directors:
 
Meets at least quarterly with our: 
 
Chief Compliance Officer and reviews the Chief Compliance Officer’s surveillance findings in general, and the Chief Compliance Officer’s findings in particular with regard to our Advisors’ and our officers’ implementation of the valuation procedures; 
 
Advisors and officers to ensure that we have taken appropriate remedial action to cure deficiencies, if any, related to our internal control over financial reporting, which may impact the valuation policies and procedures adopted by our board of directors; and 
 
Reviews any changes in ASC 820 against our approved valuation policies and procedures to ensure that such valuation policies and procedures are modified and approved, as appropriate, in light of current accounting guidance;
 
Because our board of directors has the ultimate responsibility for determining, in good faith, the fair value of our portfolio investments, our board of directors will have direct access to all entities and all persons, including any independent valuation agents, that are involved in assisting with the valuation of our portfolio investments in order to discuss with them the valuation methodologies they have utilized. We believe this enables our board of directors to fulfill its responsibilities despite any conflicts of interest that may exist.
 
 
101

 
 
Determination of Our Net Asset Value
 
The board of directors determines the net asset value per share of our outstanding shares of common stock quarterly by dividing the value of total assets minus liabilities by the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding at the time of determination.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, we base fair value on observable market prices or parameters, or derive fair value from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, we apply valuation models. These valuation techniques used in our valuation models involve some level of estimation and judgment, the degree of which depends on price transparency for the instruments or market and the financial instruments’ complexity. We categorize assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in our financial statements based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. Hierarchical levels, as defined under GAAP, are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuations of these assets and liabilities, and are as follows:
 
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The types of assets carried at level 1 fair value generally consist of equity securities that are listed on active security exchanges.
 
Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices included in level 1, are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.
 
Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset.
 
A significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability is an indication that transactions or quoted prices may not be representative of fair value because, in such market conditions, there may be increased instances of transactions that are not orderly. In those circumstances, we believe further analysis of transactions or quoted prices is needed, and a significant adjustment to the transactions or quoted prices may be necessary to estimate fair value.
 
The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial asset or liability and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new, whether the financial instrument is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, and current market conditions. To the extent that we base valuation upon models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by us in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Depending on the relative liquidity in the markets for certain assets, we may transfer assets to level 3 if we determine that observable quoted prices, obtained directly or indirectly, are not available. The variability of the observable inputs affected by the factors described above may cause instruments to be reallocated between levels 1, 2, and/or 3, which we will recognize at the end of the reporting period.
 
Many financial assets and liabilities have bid and ask prices that can be observed in the marketplace. Bid prices reflect the highest price that we and others are willing to pay for an asset. Ask prices represent the lowest price that we and others are willing to accept for an asset. For financial assets and liabilities whose inputs are based on bid-ask prices, we will not require that fair value always be a predetermined point in the bid-ask range. Our policy is to allow for mid-market pricing and adjusting to the point within the bid-ask range that meets our best estimate of fair value.
 
We record the TRS at fair value.  The fair value of the TRS is primarily based on (i) the increase or decrease in the value of the TRS reference assets relative to the notional amounts, together with (ii) accrued interest income and fee income, (iii) TRS swap financing costs on the TRS settled trade notional amount, and (iv) certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The TRS reference assets are valued pursuant to the valuation algorithm specified in each TRS agreement, including reliance on indicative bid prices provided by independent third-party pricing services. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. On a quarterly basis, the Company’s management reviews, tests and compares (i) the indicative bid prices assigned to each TRS reference asset by the TRS counterparty, based on the inputs provided to TRS counterparty by third-party pricing services with (ii) third-party service provider pricing inputs that are independently sourced by our management and/or its Advisors. To the extent our

management has any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the TRS reference assets, such valuations are discussed or challenged with the TRS counterparty pursuant to the terms of the TRS agreements. Additionally, the Company’s management reviews the calculations of both collected and accrued interest, total return swap financing costs, and realized gains and losses that also determine the aggregate fair value of the TRS. For additional disclosures on the TRS, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources—Total Return Swaps.”
 
Value Determinations in Connection with this Continuous Offering
 
To the extent that the net asset value per share increases subsequent to the last weekly closing, the price per share may increase. Therefore, persons who subscribe for shares of our common stock in this offering must submit subscriptions for a certain dollar amount, rather than a number of shares of common stock and, as a result, may receive fractional shares of our common stock.
 
In connection with each subscription closing on the sale of shares of our common stock offered pursuant to the prospectus on a continuous basis, we expect that our board of directors may delegate to our officers the authority to test that the net proceeds per share from the sale of shares are equal to, or greater than, our current net asset value per share on the date of each weekly subscription closing. Our officers may consult with our board of directors or audit committee members to confirm their determination that we are not selling shares of our common stock at a price which, after deducting selling commissions and marketing support fees, is below our then current net asset value. We expect that our officers, acting under delegated authority from our board of directors, will consider the following factors, among others, in making such determination:
 
the net asset value of our common stock as disclosed in our most recent periodic report filed with the SEC;
 
our Advisors’ and officers’ assessment of whether any material change in net asset value has occurred (including through any realization of net gains from the sale of a portfolio investment), or any material change in the fair value of portfolio investments has occurred, in each case, from the period beginning on the date of the most recently disclosed net asset value to the period ending two days prior to the date of the weekly subscription closing of our common stock; and
 
the magnitude of the difference between the net asset value disclosed in the most recent periodic report we filed with the SEC and our officers’ assessment of any material change in the net asset value since the date of the most recently disclosed net asset value, and the offering price of the shares of our common stock at the date of the weekly subscription closing.
 
Importantly, this determination does not require that we calculate and disclose net asset value in connection with each weekly closing and sale of shares of our common stock, but instead it involves the determination by our Advisors and officers, or by our board of directors, that we are not selling shares of our common stock at a price which, after deducting selling commissions and marketing support fees, is below the then current net asset value on the date of sale.
 
Moreover, to the extent that there is more than a remote possibility that we may: (i) issue shares of our common stock at a price which, after deducting selling commissions and marketing support fees, is below the then current net asset value of our common stock on the date of sale or (ii) trigger the undertaking provided herein to suspend the offering of shares of our common stock pursuant to the prospectus if the net asset value fluctuates by certain amounts in certain circumstances until the prospectus is amended, the board of directors or a committee thereof will elect, in the case of clause (i) above, either to postpone the weekly closing until such time that there is no longer the possibility of the occurrence of such event or to undertake to determine net asset value within two days prior to any such sale to ensure that such sale will not be made at a price which, after deducting selling commissions and marketing support fees, is below our then current net asset value, and, in the case of clause (ii) above, to comply with such undertaking or to undertake to determine net asset value to ensure that such undertaking has not been triggered.
 
These valuation processes and procedures are part of our compliance program. Records will be made contemporaneously with all determinations described in this section and these records will be maintained with other records we are required to maintain under the 1940 Act. Promptly following any adjustment to the offering price per share of our common stock offered pursuant to the prospectus, we intend to update the prospectus by filing a prospectus supplement with the SEC. We also intend to make updated information available via our website:  www.corporatecapitaltrust.com.

We are offering a maximum of 209,000,000 shares of our common stock to the public at a current offering price of $11.10 per share, except as provided below. Our Managing Dealer is CNL Securities Corp. The shares are being offered on a “best efforts” basis, which means generally that the Managing Dealer is required to use only its best efforts to sell the shares and it has no firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares. We intend that the shares of common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus will not be listed on any national securities exchange during the offering period, and neither our Managing Dealer nor the participating broker-dealers intend to act as market-makers with respect to our common stock. This prospectus also relates to the shares that we will offer under our distribution reinvestment plan.  See “Distribution Reinvestment Plan.”
 
Under applicable SEC rules, generally, an issuer may offer and sell securities in a continuous offering, like this offering, only until the third anniversary of the initial effective date of the registration statement under which the securities are being offered and sold.  However, if, in accordance with SEC rules, a new registration statement is filed by the issuer before the end of that three-year period, then the continuous offering of securities covered by the prior registration statement (provided such continuous offering had commenced within three years of the initial effective date) may continue until the effective date of the new registration statement, if so permitted under the new registration statement.  In such a circumstance, the issuer may also choose to enlarge the continuous offering by including on such new registration statement a further amount of securities, in addition to any unsold securities covered by the earlier registration statement.  Because our current registration statement for this offering was initially declared effective on November 1, 2013, this offering will expire on November 1, 2016.
 
This offering must be registered in every state in which we offer or sell shares. Generally, such registrations are for a period of one year. Thus, we may have to stop selling shares in any state in which our registration is not renewed or otherwise extended annually. We reserve the right to terminate this offering at any time prior to the stated termination date.
 
Managing Dealer
 
Our Managing Dealer is CNL Securities Corp., which is an affiliate of CNL and a member of FINRA and the SIPC. The Managing Dealer is headquartered at 450 S. Orange Avenue, Orlando Florida. Our Managing Dealer will act as a distributor of our shares of common stock offered by this prospectus.
 
Subject to certain reductions described below, our Managing Dealer will receive selling commissions of up to 7% of the gross proceeds of shares sold in the offering. The Managing Dealer will also receive a marketing support fee of up to 3% of the gross offering proceeds for marketing support fees. The term “marketing support fees” refers to a portion of the sales load available to participating broker-dealers for assistance in selling and marketing our shares.
 
Our Managing Dealer will engage unrelated, third-party participating broker-dealers in connection with the offering of shares. As used in this prospectus, the term participating broker-dealers includes the Managing Dealer, other members of FINRA, and entities exempt from broker-dealer registration. In connection with the sale of shares by participating broker-dealers, our Managing Dealer may reallow to such participating broker-dealers all or any portion of its selling commissions or marketing support fees attributable to such participating broker-dealers’ respective sales.
 
The Managing Dealer may reallow all or any portion of the marketing support fees for each share sold by a participating broker, provided that the participating broker agrees to comply with one or more of the following conditions:
 
To have and use internal marketing support personnel (such as telemarketers or a marketing director) to assist the managing dealer’s marketing team;
 
To have and use marketing communications vehicles such as newsletters, conference calls, interactive CD-ROMS and mail to promote our company and this Offering;
 
To answer investors’ inquiries concerning quarterly statements, valuations, distribution rates, tax information, annual reports, reinvestment and redemption rights and procedures, and the Fund’s financial status;
 
To assist investors with reinvestments and redemptions;
 
To maintain the technology necessary to adequately service our investors as otherwise associated with the Offering; or
 
To provide other services as requested by investors from time to time.
 
 
104

 

See “Special Discounts” for a description of the circumstances under which a selling commission and/or marketing support fee may be reduced or eliminated in connection with certain purchases. Selling commissions and marketing support fees will not be paid in connection with the purchase of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. We will also reimburse the Managing Dealer for reasonable out-of-pocket due diligence expenses that are incurred by the Managing Dealer and/or participating broker-dealers, provided that such expenses are detailed on itemized invoices.
 
In addition, we and, to a lesser extent, our affiliates may reimburse our Managing Dealer and their associated persons and affiliates for other expenses incurred, including expenses related to  bona fide  training and education meetings, sales seminars, wholesaling activities and legal expenses. Amounts paid by us to our Managing Dealer may be paid by our Managing Dealer to any participating brokers. We may also reimburse the participating brokers for certain expenses incurred in connection with this offering. Expenses that we may pay to participating brokers, or those expenses our Managing Dealer reallows to participating brokers, include reimbursements for costs and expenses related to investor and broker/dealer sales and training meetings, broker/dealer  bona fide  training and education meetings for such meetings conducted by us, our Managing Dealer or participating brokers and including costs of technology associated with the offering and other costs and expenses related to such technology costs. The expense reimbursements described in this paragraph, and the permissible forms of non-cash compensation described in the paragraph below, will be paid from the selling commissions and/or the marketing support fees that are paid in this offering.
 
We, or our affiliates, may provide permissible forms of non-cash compensation to registered representatives of our Managing Dealer and the participating broker-dealers, the value of which may not exceed an aggregate of $100 per sales person, per year. In the event other incentives are provided to registered representatives of the Managing Dealer or the participating broker-dealers, those incentives will be paid only in cash, and such payments will be made only to the Managing Dealer, not to participating broker-dealers or to their registered representatives. Sales incentive programs offered to the Managing Dealer or to participating broker-dealers must first have been submitted for review by FINRA and must comply with Rule 5110 or Rule 2310, as applicable. Costs incurred in connection with such sales incentive programs, if any, will be considered underwriting compensation. Rule 2310 provides that the maximum compensation payable from any source to FINRA members participating in an offering may not exceed 10% of gross offering proceeds, excluding proceeds from a distribution reinvestment plan.
 
To the extent permitted under applicable law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws, we have agreed to indemnify the Managing Dealer, participating broker-dealers, and selected registered investment advisers against certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act and liabilities arising from breaches of our representations and warranties contained in the Managing Dealer Agreement.
 
The Managing Dealer and participating broker-dealers are required to deliver a copy of the prospectus to each potential investor. We may make this prospectus, our subscription agreement, certain offering documents, administrative and transfer forms, as well as certain marketing materials, available electronically to the Managing Dealer and participating broker-dealers as an alternative to paper copies when possible. As a result, if the Managing Dealer or a participating broker-dealer chooses, with an investor’s prior consent, it may provide an investor with the option of receiving the prospectus, a subscription agreement, offering documents, administrative and transfer forms, as well as marketing materials, electronically. If the Managing Dealer or a participating broker-dealer chooses to offer electronic delivery of these documents to an investor, it will comply with all applicable requirements of the SEC and FINRA and any laws or regulations related to the electronic delivery of documents. In any case, an investor may always receive a paper copy of these documents upon request to the Managing Dealer or the participating broker-dealer.
 
Share Distribution Channels
 
We expect our Managing Dealer to use multiple distribution channels to sell our shares. These channels may have different selling commissions, and consequently, a different purchase price for the shares. Our Managing Dealer is expected to engage participating broker-dealers in connection with the sale of the shares of this offering in accordance with participating broker agreements. No participating broker-dealers had entered into a participating broker agreement related to this offering prior to the effective date of our registration statement. Except as otherwise described, selling commissions and marketing support fees will be paid by us to our Managing Dealer in connection with such sales.
 
We may pay reduced selling commissions to our Managing Dealer in connection with the sale of shares of our common stock to investors whose contracts for investment advisory and related brokerage services include a fixed or “wrap” fee feature. Investors may agree with their participating brokers that no selling commissions will be payable with respect to the purchase of their shares: (1) if the investor has engaged the services of a registered investment adviser or other financial advisor who will be paid compensation for investment advisory services or other financial or investment advice or (2) if the investor is investing through a bank trust account with respect to which the investor has delegated the decision-making authority for investments made through the account to a bank trust department. The net proceeds to us will not be affected by reducing the selling commissions payable in connection with such transaction. Neither our Managing Dealer nor its affiliates are expected to directly or indirectly compensate any person engaged as an investment adviser or a bank trust department by a potential investor to induce such investment adviser or bank trust department to advise favorably for an investment in shares of our common stock. See ”— Special Discounts.”
 
 
105

 
 
We also expect to deliver our shares through independent investment advisers (affiliated with registered broker-dealers) and through banks and other entities exempt from broker-dealer registration and acting as trustees or fiduciaries.
 
Subject to compliance with applicable regulations, we may sell shares directly to certain institutional investors in negotiated transactions in which no party is acting as an underwriter, dealer or agent. We will determine the per share price through negotiations with these institutional investors.
 
Special Discounts
 
We may waive or reduce certain fees and expenses in connection with the sale of our shares that will represent a discount to the price at which our securities are offered to the public. However, the amount of net proceeds to us is not expected to be affected by these discounts.
 
Our executive officers and directors and their immediate family members, as well as officers and persons associated with our Advisors and its members and their affiliates and their immediate family members (including spouses, parents, grandparents, children and siblings) and other individuals designated by our management, and, if approved by our board of directors, joint venture partners, consultants and other service providers, may purchase shares of our common stock in this offering and may be charged a reduced rate for certain fees and expenses in respect of such purchases. We expect that a limited number of shares of our common stock will be sold to individuals designated by our management, net of all selling commissions and marketing support fees, shortly after the commencement of the offering. However, except for certain share ownership and transfer restrictions contained in our articles of incorporation, there is no limit on the number of shares of our common stock that may be sold to such persons.
 
In addition, the selling commission and the marketing support fee may be reduced or waived in connection with certain categories of sales, such as sales for which a volume discount applies, distribution reinvestment plan sales, sales to certain institutional investors, sales through investment advisers or banks acting as trustees or fiduciaries, sales to our affiliates, sales to employees of selected participating broker-dealers, sales made by certain selected participating brokers at the discretion of the Managing Dealer, sales in wrap accounts managed by participating brokers or their affiliates, and sales in managed accounts that are managed by participating brokers or their affiliates. We may also make certain sales directly to these groups designated by our management without a broker-dealer intermediary. For such direct sales, all selling commissions and marketing support fees will be waived. We may also sell shares at a discount to the public offering price in the event that the investor:
 
pays a broker a fixed fee, e.g., a percentage of assets under management, for investment advisory and broker services, which is referred to as a “wrap fee,” except that, with regard to certain participating broker arrangements, if the wrap fee arrangement is with a federally registered investment adviser that is dually registered as a broker-dealer and provides financial planning services, then the investor may pay both selling commissions and the reallowed marketing support fee,
 
has engaged the services of a registered investment adviser with whom the investor has agreed to pay compensation for investment advisory services or other financial or investment advice (other than a registered investment adviser that is also registered as a broker-dealer who does not have a fixed or “wrap fee” feature or other asset fee arrangement with the investor); or
 
is investing through a bank or other entity exempt from broker-dealer registration acting as trustee or fiduciary.
 
If an investor purchases shares through one of these channels in this offering, we will sell the shares at a negotiated discount of 7%, 7.5%, 8%, or 8.5% from the public offering price, reflecting that selling commissions, and in some cases a portion of the marketing support fee, will not be paid in connection with such purchases. We expect to receive the same net proceeds per share for sales of shares through these channels. Neither our Managing Dealer nor its affiliates are expected to compensate any person engaged as a financial advisor by a potential investor to induce such financial advisor to advise favorably for an investment in us.
 
We are also offering volume discounts to investors who purchase more than $500,000 of shares of our common stock through the same selected broker-dealer in our offering. The net proceeds per share to us from a sale eligible for a volume discount will be the same, but the selling commissions payable to the selected broker-dealer will be reduced. The following table shows the discounted price per share and the reduced selling commissions payable for volume sales of our shares; the marketing support fee of 3% will still be applied at all volume levels.

We will apply the reduced selling price per share and selling commissions to the incremental shares within the indicated range only. Thus, for example, a total subscription amount of $1,250,000 would result in the purchase of 113,996.329 shares at a weighted average purchase price of $10.965 per share as shown below:
 
$500,000 at $11.100 per share=45,045.045 shares (7% selling commission + 3% marketing support fee); 
 
$250,000 at $10.989 per share=22,750.023 shares (6% selling commission + 3% marketing support fee); 
 
$250,000 at $10.878 per share=22,982.166 shares (5% selling commission + 3% marketing support fee); and 
 
$250,000 at $10.767 per share=23,219.095 shares (4% selling commission + 3% marketing support fee).
 
To qualify for a volume discount in connection with multiple purchases of our shares you must use the same participating broker-dealer for each purchase and you must mark the “Additional Investment” space on the subscription agreement. We are not responsible for failing to combine purchases if you fail to mark the “Additional Investment” space. Once you qualify for a volume discount, you will be eligible to receive the benefit of such discount for subsequent purchases of shares in our offering through the same participating broker-dealer. To the extent requested in writing by an investor as described above, our volume discount is cumulative. To the extent an investor’s cumulative purchases qualify for a volume discount, such investor’s purchases will qualify for a volume discount equal to: (i) the volume discount for the applicable purchase or (ii) to the extent the subsequent purchase, when aggregated with the prior purchase(s), qualifies for a greater volume discount, the volume discount for such aggregated purchases.
 
To the extent purchased through the same participating broker-dealer, the following persons may combine their purchases as a “single purchaser” for the purpose of qualifying for a volume discount:
 
an individual, his or her spouse, their children under the age of 21, and all pension or trust funds established by each such individual;
 
a corporation, partnership, association, joint-stock company, trust fund, or any organized group of persons, whether incorporated or not;
 
an employees’ trust, pension, profit-sharing, or other employee benefit plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code; and
 
all pensions, trusts, or other funds maintained by a given bank.
 
In the event that a person wishes to have his or her order combined with orders made by others for the purposes of being treated as a “single purchaser,” that person must request such treatment in writing at the time of subscription, setting forth the basis for the discount and identifying the orders to be combined. Any request will be subject to verification that the orders to be combined may be treated as purchases made by a single purchaser. If the subscription agreements for the combined orders of persons wishing to be treated as a single purchaser are submitted at the same time, then the commissions payable and discounted share price will be allocated pro rata among the combined orders on the basis of the respective amounts of each order. If the subscription agreements are not submitted at the same time, the volume discount provisions will apply only to the order that qualifies the single purchaser for the volume discount and the subsequent orders of that single purchaser.
 
 
107

 
 
Only shares of our common stock purchased in this offering pursuant to this prospectus are eligible for volume discounts. Shares of our common stock purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan will not be eligible for a volume discount nor will such shares count toward the threshold limits listed above that qualify individuals for the various discount levels.
 
Other Discounts
 
Notwithstanding the above, the Managing Dealer may, in its sole discretion, enter into an agreement with a participating broker-dealer whereby such participating broker-dealer may aggregate subscriptions as part of a combined order for the purpose of offering investors reduced aggregate selling commissions and marketing support fees, provided that any such aggregate group of subscriptions must be received from such participating broker-dealer. Additionally, the Managing Dealer may, in its sole discretion, aggregate subscriptions as part of a combined order for the purpose of offering investors reduced aggregate selling commissions and marketing support fees, provided that any such aggregate group of subscriptions must be received from the Managing Dealer. Any reduction in selling commissions and marketing support fees would be prorated among the separate subscribers.
 
FINRA member firms selling certain non-traded direct participation programs are required to disclose all pertinent facts relating to the liquidity and marketability of the program, including whether prior programs offered by the program sponsor liquidated on or around the date or time period disclosed in the prospectuses for those programs.  Affiliates of CNL Financial Group previously sponsored three non-traded REIT programs and currently sponsor four additional non-traded public REIT programs. The three prior non-traded public REIT programs have gone full cycle, meaning from raising initial capital to payout, and, for those programs in which the prospectus disclosed a date by which the program might be liquidated, all were liquidated prior to such projected date.
 
Our Managing Dealer has served as the managing dealer for all of the above referenced non-traded public REIT offerings.

Any investor who purchases shares of our common stock in this offering may elect to participate in our distribution reinvestment plan by making a written election to participate in such plan on his or her subscription agreement at the time he or she subscribes for shares.
 
We have adopted an “opt-in” distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which you may elect to have the full amount of your cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. There will be no selling commissions, marketing support fees or other sales charges to you if you elect to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan. We will pay the reinvestment agent’s fees under the plan.
 
Participation in the Distribution Reinvestment Plan will commence with the next distribution paid after receipt of an investor’s written election to participate in the plan and to all other calendar months thereafter, provided such election is received at least 15 business days prior to the last day of the calendar month.
 
Any purchases of our stock pursuant to our 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 our distribution reinvestment plan are free to elect or revoke reinstatement in the distribution plan within a reasonable time as specified in the plan. If you do not elect to participate in the plan you will automatically receive any distributions we declare in cash. For example, if our board of directors authorizes, and we declare, a cash distribution, then if you have “opted in” to our distribution reinvestment plan you will have your cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving the cash distributions.
 
Your distribution amount will purchase shares at a per share price equivalent to the net asset value per share at the reinvestment date (90% of the public offering price) pursuant to the effective registration statement at the time of purchase. In the event that this offering is suspended or terminated, then the reinvestment purchase price will be the net asset value per share. Shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan will have the same voting rights as our shares of common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus.
 
If you wish to receive your distribution in cash, no action will be required on your part to do so. If you are a registered shareholder, you may elect to have your entire distribution reinvested in shares of additional stock by notifying DST Systems, Inc., the reinvestment agent and our transfer agent and registrar, in writing so that such notice is received by the reinvestment agent no later than the record date for distributions to shareholders. If you elect to reinvest your distributions in additional shares of stock, the reinvestment agent will set up an account for shares you acquire through the plan and will hold such shares in non-certificated form. If your shares are held by a broker or other financial intermediary, you may “opt-in” to our distribution reinvestment plan by notifying your broker or other financial intermediary of your election.
 
During each quarter, but in no event later than 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter, our transfer agent or another designated agent will mail and/or make electronically available to each participant in the distribution reinvestment plan, a statement of account describing, as to such participant, the distributions received during such quarter, the number of shares of our common stock purchased during such quarter, and the per share purchase price for such shares. At least annually, we will include tax information for income earned on shares under the distribution reinvestment plan on a Form 1099-DIV that is mailed to you. We reserve the right to amend, suspend or terminate the distribution reinvestment plan. Any distributions reinvested through the issuance of shares through our distribution reinvestment plan will increase our gross assets on which the management fee and the incentive fee are determined and paid under our Investment Advisory Agreement.
 
For additional discussion regarding the tax implications of participation in the distribution reinvestment plan, see “Tax Matters.” Additional information about the distribution reinvestment plan may be obtained by contacting shareholder services for Corporate Capital Trust, Inc. at 866-650-0650.

During the term of this offering, we do not intend to list our shares on a securities exchange and we do not expect there to be a public market for our shares. As a result, if you purchase shares of our common stock, your ability to sell your shares will be limited.
 
We conduct quarterly tender offers on approximately 10% of our weighted average number of outstanding shares in any 12-month period, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 under the Exchange Act and the 1940 Act, to allow our shareholders to tender their shares at a specific offer price that is determined based upon our net asset value per share as of the end of our most recent fiscal quarter prior to the initiation of each tender offer program. Our share repurchase program includes numerous restrictions that limit your ability to sell your shares.
 
We limit the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares we can repurchase with the proceeds we receive from the sale of shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan.  See “Distribution Reinvestment Plan.” At the sole discretion of our board of directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from liquidation of investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares. In addition, we will limit repurchases in each quarter to 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters. You may tender all of the shares of our common stock that you own. There is no repurchase priority for a shareholder under the circumstances of death or disability of such shareholder.
 
To the extent that the number of shares of our common stock tendered to us for repurchase exceeds the number of shares that we are able to purchase, we will repurchase shares on a pro rata basis. Further, we will have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under federal law or Maryland law, which prohibit distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency. The limitations and restriction described above may prevent us from accommodating all repurchase requests made in any year. Our share repurchase program has many limitations, including the limitations described above, and should not in any way be viewed as the equivalent of a secondary market.
 
We offer to repurchase shares on such terms as may be determined by our board of directors in its complete and absolute discretion unless, in the judgment of our independent directors, such repurchases would not be in the best interests of our shareholders or would violate applicable law. There is no assurance that our board will exercise its discretion to continue to offer to repurchase shares or that there will be sufficient funds available to accommodate all of our shareholders’ requests for repurchase. As a result, we may repurchase less than the full amount of shares that you request to have repurchased. If we do not repurchase the full amount of your shares that you have requested to be repurchased, or we determine not to make repurchases of our shares, you will likely not be able to dispose of your shares, even if we under-perform. Any periodic repurchase offers will be subject in part to our available cash and compliance with the RIC qualification and diversification rules and the 1940 Act. Shareholders will not pay a fee to us in connection with our repurchase of shares under the share repurchase program.

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to a shareholder who purchases our common stock pursuant to this offering. This summary is subject to change by legislative or administrative action, and any change may be retroactive. The discussion does not purport to deal with all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to us, or which may be important to particular shareholders in light of their individual investment circumstances or to some types of shareholders subject to special tax rules, such as financial institutions, broker-dealers, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, partnerships or other pass-through entities, persons holding our common shares in connection with a hedging, straddle, conversion or other integrated transactions, persons engaged in a trade or business in the United States or persons who have ceased to be U.S. citizens or to be taxed as resident aliens or shareholders who contribute assets to us in exchange for our shares. This discussion assumes that the shareholders hold their common shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, assets held for investment). No attempt is made to present a detailed explanation of all U.S. federal income tax aspects affecting us and our shareholders, and the discussion set forth herein does not constitute tax advice. No ruling has been or will be sought from the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, regarding any matter discussed herein. Tax counsel has not rendered any legal opinion regarding any tax consequences relating to us or our shareholders. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisers to determine the U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of investing in our shares.
 
Taxation of our Company
 
Beginning with our taxable year ending December 31, 2011, we elected to be treated, and we intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify as a RIC, we must: (a) derive in each taxable year at least 90% of our gross income from dividends, interest (including tax-exempt interest), payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, other income (including but not limited to gain from options, futures and forward contracts) derived with respect to our business of investing in stock, securities or currencies, or net income derived from an interest in a “qualified publicly traded partnership,” or QPTP; and (b) diversify our holdings so that, at the end of each quarter of each taxable year: (i) at least 50% of the market value of our total assets is represented by cash and cash items, U.S. Government securities, the securities of other regulated investment companies, and other securities, with other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of our total assets and not more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer (subject to the exception described below), and (ii) not more than 25% of the market value of our total assets is invested in the securities of any issuer (other than U.S. Government securities and the securities of other regulated investment companies), the securities of any two or more issuers that we control and that are determined to be engaged in the same business or similar or related trades or businesses, or the securities of one or more QPTPs. We may generate certain income that might not qualify as good income for purposes of the 90% annual gross income requirement described above. We will monitor our transactions to endeavor to prevent our disqualification as a RIC.
 
In addition, as a RIC, we must distribute to our shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income,” which is generally our net ordinary income plus the excess of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses. In this prospectus, we refer to this distribution requirement as the Annual Distribution Requirement. A RIC can elect to treat as paid, during the taxable year, certain dividends actually paid by the RIC in the subsequent taxable year. Such dividends commonly are referred to as spillback dividends. This election affects only the tax treatment of the RIC. The shareholders generally are taxed on dividends in the year of actual distribution of such dividends. Any dividend declared by us in October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to shareholders of record on a specified date in such a month and actually paid during January of the following year, will be treated as if it had been received by our U.S. shareholders on December 31 of the year in which the dividend was declared.
 
As a RIC, in any fiscal year with respect to which we distribute at least 90% of the sum of our: (i) ”investment company taxable income,” which includes, among other items, dividends, interest, the excess of any net realized short-term capital gains over net realized long-term capital losses, and other taxable income (other than any net capital gain), reduced by deductible expenses, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends and distributions paid and (ii) net tax exempt interest income (which is the excess of our gross tax exempt interest income over certain disallowed deductions), we (but not our shareholders) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on investment company taxable income and net capital gains distributed to our shareholders. We intend to distribute, in cash and/or our own shares, annually, all or substantially all of such income. To the extent that we retain our net capital gains for investment or any investment company taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax. We may choose to retain our net capital gains for investment or any investment company taxable income, and pay the associated federal corporate income tax, including the federal excise tax described below.
 
We may retain some or all of its realized net long-term capital gains in excess of realized net short-term capital losses and designate the retained net capital gains as a “deemed distribution.” In that case, among other consequences, we will pay tax on the retained amount each U.S. shareholder will be required to include his, her, or its share of the deemed distribution in income as if it had been actually distributed to the U.S. shareholder, and the U.S. shareholders will be entitled to claim a credit equal to his, her, or its
 
 
114

 
 
allocable share of the tax paid thereon by us. The amount of the deemed distribution net of such tax will be added to the U.S. shareholder’s cost basis for his, her or its common stock. Since we expect to pay tax on any retained net capital gains at our regular corporate tax rate, and since that rate is in excess of the maximum rate currently payable by individuals on long-term capital gains, the amount of tax that individual shareholders will be treated as having paid and for which they will receive a credit will exceed the tax they owe on the retained net capital gain. Such excess generally may be claimed as a credit against the U.S. shareholder’s other federal income tax obligations or may be refunded to the extent it exceeds a shareholder’s liability for federal income tax. A shareholder that is not subject to federal income tax or otherwise required to file a federal income tax return would be required to file a federal income tax return on the appropriate form to claim a refund with respect to the allocable share of the taxes that we have paid. For federal income tax purposes, the tax basis of shares owned by a shareholder will be increased by an amount equal to the excess of the amount of undistributed capital gains included in the shareholder’s gross income and the tax deemed paid by the shareholder as described in this paragraph. To utilize the deemed distribution approach, we must provide written notice to shareholders prior to the expiration of 60 days after the close of the relevant taxable year. We cannot treat any of its investment company taxable income as a “deemed distribution.” We may also make actual distributions to our shareholders of some or all of realized net long-term capital gains in excess of realized net short-term capital losses.
 
Amounts not distributed on a timely basis in accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax payable by us. To avoid this tax, we must distribute (or be deemed to have distributed) during each calendar year an amount equal to the sum of:
 
 
1.
at least 98% of our ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for the calendar year;
 
 
2.
at least 98.2% of the amount by which our capital gains exceed our capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made by us to use our taxable year); and
 
 
3.
certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax.
 
While we intend to distribute any income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize imposition of the 4% federal excise tax, sufficient amounts of our taxable income and capital gains may not be distributed to avoid entirely the imposition of the tax. In that event, we will be liable for the tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the foregoing distribution requirement.
 
If, in any particular taxable year, we do not satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement or otherwise were to fail to qualify as a RIC (for example, because we fail the 90% annual gross income requirement described above), all of our taxable income (including our net capital gains) will be subject to tax at regular corporate rates without any deduction for distributions to shareholders, and distributions generally will be taxable to the shareholders as ordinary dividends to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits.
 
We may decide to be taxed as a regular corporation even if we would otherwise qualify as a RIC if we determine that treatment as a regular corporation for a particular year would be in our best interests.
 
Taxation of U.S. Shareholders
 
For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. shareholder” is a holder or a beneficial holder of shares which is for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (1) a person who is a citizen or resident of the U.S., (2) a domestic corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes), (3) an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or (4) a trust if: (a) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) the trust has in effect a valid election to be treated as a domestic trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If a partnership or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. tax purposes holds the shares, the tax treatment of the partnership and each partner generally will depend on the activities of the partnership and the activities of the partner. Partnerships acquiring shares, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors. Prospective investors that are not U.S. shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in our shares, including the potential application of U.S. withholding taxes.
 
Distributions we pay to our shareholders from our ordinary income or from an excess of net realized short-term capital gains over net realized long-term capital losses, which together we refer to in this prospectus as “ordinary income dividends,” are generally taxable to you as ordinary income to the extent of our earnings and profits. Due to our expected investments, in general, distributions will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporate shareholders and will not qualify for the reduced rates of tax for qualified dividend income allowed to individuals. Distributions made to you from an excess of net realized long-term capital gains over net realized short-term capital losses, which we refer to in this prospectus as “capital gain dividends,” including capital gain dividends credited to you but retained by us, are taxable to you as long-term capital gains if they have been properly designated by us, regardless of the length of time you have owned our shares. Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits will first reduce the
 
 
115

 
 
adjusted tax basis of your shares and, after the adjusted tax basis is reduced to zero, will constitute capital gains to you (assuming the shares are held as a capital asset). The reduction in the tax basis of shares by the amount of any return of capital distributions, which will generally result in an increase in the amount of any taxable gain (or a reduction in any deductible loss) on the sale of shares. Generally, you will be provided with a written notice designating the amount of any ordinary income dividends and capital gain dividends or other distributions as promptly as practicable after the close of the taxable year.
 
In the event that we retain any net capital gains, we may designate the retained amounts as undistributed capital gains in a notice to our shareholders. If a designation is made, shareholders would include in income, as long-term capital gains, their proportionate share of the undistributed amounts, but would be allowed a credit or refund, as the case may be, for their proportionate share of the corporate tax paid by us. In addition, the tax basis of shares owned by a U.S. shareholder would be increased by an amount equal to the difference between: (i) the amount included in the U.S. shareholder’s income as long-term capital gains and (ii) the U.S. shareholder’s proportionate share of the corporate tax paid by us.
 
If, in January of any year, we pay our shareholders a dividend that was declared during the final calendar quarter of the preceding year to our shareholders of record as of a specified date in such calendar quarter, then the dividend will be treated for tax purposes as being paid by us and received by our shareholders on December 31 of such preceding year (  i.e. , the year in which the dividend was declared). Dividends and other taxable distributions are taxable to our shareholders even if they are reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. In addition, to the extent that a shareholder purchases additional shares within the Distribution Reinvestment Plan at a discount to fair market value of the shares, the shareholder will be treated for tax purposes as having received an additional distribution equal to the amount of the purchase price discount. A shareholder designating a distribution for reinvestment will be taxed on the amount of such distribution as ordinary income to the extent such distribution is from current or accumulated earnings and profits, unless we have designated all or a portion of the distribution as a capital gain dividend or as a return of capital. In that event, such designated portion of the distribution will be taxed as long-term capital gain or as a return of capital, respectively. Any stock received in a purchase under our Distribution Reinvestment Plan will have a holding period for tax purposes commencing on the day following the day on which shares are credited to your account. If you are purchasing our shares pursuant to a volume discount or any other reduction in selling commissions or other fees, as set forth elsewhere in this prospectus, you should consult with your own tax advisor before electing to participate in the Distribution Reinvestment Plan.
 
A U.S. shareholder will realize gain or loss on the sale or exchange of our common shares in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. shareholder’s adjusted basis in the shares sold or exchanged and the amount realized on their disposition. Generally, a gain or loss recognized by a U.S. shareholder on the sale or other disposition of our common shares will result in capital gain or loss to such shareholder, and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year at the time of sale. Any loss realized by a shareholder upon the sale or exchange of our shares held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any capital gain dividends received (including amounts credited as an undistributed capital gain dividend) by such shareholder. A loss realized on a sale or exchange of our shares will be disallowed if other substantially identical shares are acquired (whether through the automatic reinvestment of dividends or otherwise) within a 61-day period beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the date that the shares are disposed of. In this case, the basis of the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Present law taxes both long-term and short-term capital gains of corporations at the rates applicable to ordinary income.
 
Federal law will require us to report our shareholders’ cost basis, gain/loss, and holding period to the IRS on Form 1099s when “covered” securities are sold. For purposes of these reporting requirements, all of our shares acquired by non-tax exempt shareholders, including those acquired through our Distribution Reinvestment Plan, will be considered covered securities. We have chosen FIFO (first-in, first-out) as our standing (default) tax lot identification method for all shareholders. A tax lot identification method is the way we will determine which specific shares are deemed to be sold when there are multiple purchases on different dates at differing transaction prices, and the entire position is not sold at one time. Our standing tax lot identification method is the method covered securities will be reported on your Form 1099 if you do not select a specific tax lot identification method. You may choose a method different than our standing method and will be able to do so from the time you are admitted as a shareholder up through and until the sale of the covered securities. For those securities defined as “covered” under current IRS cost basis tax reporting regulations, we are responsible for maintaining accurate cost basis and tax lot information for tax reporting purposes. We are not responsible for the reliability or accuracy of the information for those securities that are not “covered.” We encourage you to refer to the appropriate IRS regulations or consult your tax advisor with regard to your personal circumstances and any decisions you may make with respect to choosing a tax lot identification method.
 
As required by the Internal Revenue Code, we will send each of our U.S. shareholders, as promptly as possible after the end of each calendar year, a notice detailing the amounts includible in such U.S. shareholder’s taxable income for such year as ordinary income and as long-term capital gain. In addition, the federal tax status of each year’s distributions generally will be reported to the IRS (including the amount of dividends, if any, eligible for the “qualified dividend income” rate). Distributions may also be subject to additional state, local and foreign taxes depending on a U.S. shareholder’s particular situation. Dividends distributed by us generally will not be eligible for the corporate dividends received deduction.
 
 
116

 
 
We may be required to withhold federal income tax, which we refer to in this prospectus as backup withholding, from all taxable distributions to any non-corporate U.S. shareholder: (1) who fails to furnish us with a correct taxpayer identification number or a certificate that such shareholder is exempt from backup withholding or (2) with respect to whom the IRS notifies us that such shareholder has failed to properly report certain interest and dividend income to the IRS and to respond to notices to that effect. An individual’s taxpayer identification number is typically his or her social security number. Any amount withheld under backup withholding is allowed as a credit against the U.S. shareholder’s federal income tax liability, provided that proper information is provided to the IRS.
 
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal income tax and withholding tax, and state, local, and foreign tax consequences of an investment in our shares.
 
Company Investments
 
Certain of our investment practices are subject to special and complex U.S. federal income tax provisions that may: (i) disallow, suspend, or otherwise limit the allowance of certain losses or deductions, including the dividends received deduction, (ii) convert lower taxed long-term capital gains and qualified dividend income into higher taxed short-term capital gains or ordinary income, (iii) convert ordinary loss or a deduction into capital loss (the deductibility of which is more limited), (iv) cause us to recognize income or gain without a corresponding receipt of cash, (v) adversely affect the time as to when a purchase or sale of stock or securities is deemed to occur, (vi) adversely alter the characterization of certain complex financial transactions, and (vii) produce income that will not qualify as good income for purposes of the 90% annual gross income requirement described above. We will monitor our transactions and may decide to make certain tax elections, may be required to borrow money, or may be required to dispose of securities to mitigate the effect of these rules and prevent disqualification of us as a RIC.
 
Investments we make in securities issued at a discount or providing for deferred interest or paid-in-kind interest are subject to special tax rules that will affect the amount, timing, and character of distributions to our shareholders. For example, with respect to securities issued at a discount, we will generally be required to accrue daily, as income, a portion of the discount and to distribute such income each year to maintain our qualification as a RIC and to avoid U.S. federal income and excise taxes. Since in certain circumstances we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty making distributions in the amounts necessary to satisfy the requirements for maintaining RIC status and for avoiding U.S. federal income and excise taxes. Accordingly, we may have to sell some of our investments at times we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital, distribute our own shares, or reduce new investment originations to meet these distribution requirements. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify as a RIC and thereby be subject to corporate-level income tax.
 
In the event we invest in foreign securities, we may be subject to withholding and other foreign taxes with respect to those securities. We do not expect to satisfy the requirement to pass through to our shareholders their share of the foreign taxes paid by us.
 
We may invest in non-U.S. corporations (or other non-U.S. entities treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Thus, it is possible that one or more such entities in which we invest could be treated under the Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations as a “passive foreign investment company” or a “controlled foreign corporation.” The rules relating to investment in these types of non-U.S. entities are designed to ensure that U.S. taxpayers are either, in effect, taxed currently (or on an accelerated basis with respect to corporate level events) or taxed at increased tax rates at distribution or disposition. In certain circumstances this could require us to recognize income where we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash and make distributions with respect to such income in order to maintain our status as a RIC. Under such circumstances, we may have difficulty meeting the Annual Distribution Requirement necessary to maintain RIC tax treatment under the Code. Under certain circumstances an investment in a passive investment company could result in a tax to our company and/or an increase in the amount of taxable distributions by our company.

Non-income producing security.
(a)
 
Security may be an obligation of one or more entities affiliated with the named company.
(b)
 
Denominated in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise noted.
(c)
 
Represents amortized cost for debt securities and cost for common stock.
(d)
 
Non-Control/Non-Affiliate investments are defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”) as investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. Controlled investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in which more than 25% of the voting securities are owned or where the ability to nominate greater than 50% of the board representation is maintained. Affiliate investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in which between 5% and 25% of the voting securities are owned and the investments are not classified as Controlled investments.
(e)
 
Security or portion thereof is held within CCT Funding, LLC and is pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility with Deutsche Bank.
(f)
 
A portfolio company domiciled in a foreign country.
(g)
 
The investment is not a qualifying asset as defined in Section 55(a) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act.  A business development company may not acquire any asset other than qualifying assets, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the company’s total assets. The Company calculates its compliance with the qualifying assets test on a “look through” basis by disregarding the value of the Company’s total return swaps and treating each loan underlying the total return swaps as either a qualifying asset or non-qualifying asset based on whether the obligor is an eligible portfolio company.  On this basis, 80.6% of the Company’s total assets represented qualifying assets as of June 30, 2013.
(h)
 
This security was acquired in a transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Rule 144A thereunder. This security may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, normally to qualified institutional buyers.
(i)
 
Security or portion thereof is pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under the committed facility agreement with BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage, Inc. and eligible to be hypothecated as allowed under Rule 15c2-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act subject to the limits of the Rehypothecation Agreement.
(j)
 
Investments classified as Level 3 whereby fair value was determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (see Note 2).
(k)
 
Position or portion thereof unsettled as of June 30, 2013.
(l)
 
A portfolio company investment structured as a credit-linked floating rate note.
(m)
 
7-day effective yield as of June 30, 2013.
(n)
 
As of June 30, 2013, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was $16,379,004; the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value was $11,108,361; the net unrealized appreciation was $5,270,643; the aggregate cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes was $1,177,747,620.
(o)
 
Investment was on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2013.

CORPORATE CAPITAL TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.
Principal Business and Organization
 
Corporate Capital Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on June 9, 2010. The Company is a non-diversified closed-end management investment company and it is regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “40 Act”). The Company’s investment objective is to provide its shareholders with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation, by investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of its advisors.
 
The Company is externally managed by CNL Fund Advisors Company (“CNL”) and KKR Asset Management LLC (“KKR”) (collectively the “Advisors”), which are responsible for sourcing potential investments, analyzing and conducting due diligence on prospective investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring the Company’s investment portfolio on an ongoing basis. Both Advisors are registered as investment advisers with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). CNL also provides the administrative services necessary for the Company to operate.
 
The Company is currently selling shares of its common stock pursuant to a registration statement on Form N-2 (as amended and supplemented, the “Registration Statement”) and it is offering to sell, on a continuous basis, 150 million shares of common stock for approximately $1.7 billion (the “Offering”). The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 4, 2011 and the Company commenced its Offering. The Company commenced business operations on June 17, 2011 and it commenced investment operations on July 1, 2011.
 
As of June 30, 2013, the Company had two wholly owned financing subsidiaries; CCT Funding LLC (“CCT Funding”), which was established on July 15, 2011 for the purpose of arranging a secured, revolving credit facility with a bank and to borrow money to invest in portfolio companies, and Halifax Funding LLC (“Halifax Funding”), which was established on October 11, 2012 for the purpose of entering into total return swaps (“TRS”).

Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim periods, have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
 
Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including certain financial statement footnotes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted herein. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes related thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which was filed with the SEC on March 18, 2013. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
 
Use of Estimates - The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, (ii) the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period and (iii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits, foreign currency, and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Valuation of Investments - The Company measures the value of its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC Topic 820”), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
 
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from independent pricing services, broker-dealers or market makers. With respect to the Company’s portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Company’s board of directors is responsible for determining in good faith the fair value in accordance with the valuation policy approved by the board of directors. The board of directors will make this fair value determination on a quarterly basis and any other time when a decision regarding the fair value of the portfolio investments is required. A
 
 
F-22

 
 
determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of portfolio investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
 
ASC Topic 820 also defines hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuations of these assets and liabilities, and the hierarchical levels are described as follows:
 
Level 1Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Publicly listed equities and debt securities, publicly listed derivatives, money market fund/ short term investment funds and foreign currency are generally included in Level 1. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments.
 
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. In certain cases, debt and equity securities are valued on the basis of prices from orderly transactions for similar investments in active markets between market participants and provided by reputable dealers or independent pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrices, market transactions in comparable investments, and various relationships between investments. Investments generally included in this category are corporate bonds and loans, convertible debt indexed to publicly listed securities, foreign currency forward contracts and certain over-the-counter derivatives.
 
Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant judgment or estimation. Investments generally included in this category are total return swap agreements, corporate bonds/loans and common stock investments that lack observable market pricing.
 
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and it considers factors specific to the investment.
 
Security Transactions, Realized/Unrealized Gains or Losses, and Income Recognition - Security transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. The Company measures realized gains or losses from the repayment or sale of investments using the specific identification method. The amortized cost basis of investments includes (i) the original cost and (ii) adjustments for the accretion/amortization of market discounts and premiums, original issue discount and loan origination fees. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums to par value and accretion of discounts to par value. Discounts and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. Premiums and discounts are determined based on the cash flows expected to be collected for a particular investment. Structuring service fees, origination, closing, commitment, and other upfront fees are generally non-recurring and recognized as revenue when earned. Loan origination fees received from corporate borrowers in connection with the closing of investments are accreted over the contractual life of the loan based on the effective interest method as interest income. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties, unamortized loan origination fees, unamortized original issue discount, and unamortized market discounts are recorded as interest income.
 
The Company has investments in debt securities which contain a contractual payment-in-kind, or PIK, interest provision. If the borrower elects to pay, or is obligated to pay, PIK interest, and if deemed collectible in management’s judgment, then the PIK interest is computed at the contractual rate specified in the investment’s credit agreement, the computed PIK interest is added to the investment’s principal balance, and the computed PIK interest is recorded as interest income.
 
Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.
 
Loans or debt securities are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are at least 90 days past due or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Generally, accrued interest is reversed when a loan or a debt security is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans or debt securities may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Non-accrual loans and debt securities are restored to accrual
 
 
F-23

 
 
status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
 
Derivative Instruments - The Company’s derivative instruments include foreign currency forward contracts and total return swaps.  The Company marks the value of its derivative instruments to market value through net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the TRS is composed of the net accrued interest income and accrued interest expense owed and the overall change in fair value of the TRS reference assets. Realized gains and losses that occur upon the cash settlement of the derivative instruments are included in net realized gain (loss) on derivative instruments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains and losses on the TRS are composed of any realized gains or losses on the TRS reference assets and the net interest received or paid on the quarterly TRS settlement date.
 
Deferred Financing Costs - Deferred financing costs represent fees and other direct costs incurred in connection with arranging the Company’s borrowings and total return swaps. These amounts are initially recorded as prepaid and deferred expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities and then subsequently amortized over the contractual term of the credit facilities and total return swap agreements as interest expense.
 
Paid In Capital - The Company records the proceeds from the sale of its common stock on a net basis to (i) capital stock and (ii) paid in capital in excess of par value, excluding all commissions and marketing support fees.
 
Foreign Currency Translation, Transactions and Gains/Losses - Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) at the exchange rate on the last business day of the reporting period for the fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities; and (ii) at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective recording dates for the purchase and sale of investment securities, income, expenses, gains and losses.
 
Net assets and fair values are presented based on the applicable foreign exchange rates described above and the Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held; therefore the fluctuations related to foreign exchange rate conversion are included with the net realized gain (loss) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments.
 
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from activity in foreign currency forward contracts, sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded by the Company and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid by the Company. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from currency translation for foreign currency forward contracts is included in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from foreign currency translation for other receivables or payables is presented as net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency translation in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts is included with unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.
 
Management Fees - The Company accrues for the base management fee (recorded as investment advisory fees) and performance-based incentive fees, including (i) a subordinated incentive fee on income and (ii) an incentive fee on capital gains. The Company records the liability for the incentive fee on capital gains based on a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the end of each reporting period. Therefore the accrual for incentive fee on capital gains includes the recognition of incentive fee on both net realized gains and net unrealized appreciation, if any, although any such incentive fee associated with net unrealized appreciation is neither earned nor payable to the Advisors until net unrealized appreciation is realized as net realized gains. Additionally the determination of whether the accrued incentive fee associated with net realized gains is earned and payable to the Advisors can only be made at the end of the calendar year. The two components of performance-based incentive fees are combined and expensed on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and accrued on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as accrued performance-based incentive fees.
 
Organization and Offering Expenses - Organization expenses, including reimbursement payments to Advisors, are expensed on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Continuous offering expenses, including reimbursement payments to Advisors, but excluding commission and marketing support fees, are accumulated monthly and capitalized on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as deferred offering expenses and then subsequently expensed over a 12-month period.
 
Earnings per Share - Earnings per share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period.
 
 
F-24

 
 
Distributions - Distributions are generally declared by the Company’s board of directors each calendar quarter and recognized as distribution liabilities on the record date.
 
The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of distributions on behalf of shareholders. Shareholders who have elected to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock at a price per share equivalent to the public offering price on the distribution payment date, net of commissions and marketing support fees.
 
Federal Income Taxes - The Company has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to maintain its qualification as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). Generally, a RIC is not subject to federal income taxes on distributed income and gains if it distributes at least 90% of “Investment Company Taxable Income,” as defined in the Code. The Company intends to distribute sufficient dividends to maintain its RIC status each year and it does not anticipate paying a material level of federal income taxes in the future. Prior to the Company’s election for tax treatment as a RIC, it was subject to corporate federal and state income taxes on its taxable income. The Company did not have taxable income prior to the RIC election in 2011.
 
The Company is also generally subject to nondeductible federal excise taxes if it does not distribute an amount at least equal to the sum (i) 98% of net ordinary income, (ii) 98.2% of the Company’s capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Company paid no federal income tax. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this excess taxable income.
 
The Company recognizes in its condensed consolidated financial statements the effect of a tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria of ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Overall –Recognition, nor did it have any unrecognized tax benefits as of the periods presented herein. Although the Company files federal and state tax returns, its major tax jurisdiction is federal.
 
Book and tax basis differences relating to permanent book and tax differences are reclassified among the Company’s capital accounts, as appropriate at year-end. Additionally, the tax character of distributions is determined in accordance with the Code which differs from GAAP.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2013, the FASB clarified the scope of offsetting disclosure requirements which require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods, with retrospective disclosures required for all comparative periods presented. The guidance did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
3.
Investments
 
The Company is engaged in a strategy to invest primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies. The primary investment concentrations include (i) senior debt securities and (ii) subordinated debt securities. The fair value of senior and subordinated debt investments will generally fluctuate with, among other things, changes in prevailing interest rates, the general supply of, and demand for, debt capital among private and public companies, general domestic and global economic conditions, the condition of certain financial markets, developments or trends in any particular industry and changes in the financial condition and credit quality of each security’s issuer.
 
Investment purchases, sales and principal payments/paydowns are summarized below for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These purchase and sale amounts exclude short-term investments (i.e. money market fund investments) and derivative instruments.

The Company’s investment portfolio may contain debt investments that are in the form of lines of credit, unfunded delayed draw loan commitments, or revolving credit facilities which require the Company to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had one such unfunded loan commitment that amounted to $20,150,000.  The Company maintains sufficient liquidity in the form of cash, short term investments or borrowing capacity under its credit facilities to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.
 
As of June 30, 2013, debt instruments on non-accrual status represented 1.2% and 0.9% of total investments on a cost and fair value basis, respectively.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts:
 
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to facilitate settlement of purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies and to economically hedge the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. These contracts are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the contract exchange rate and the current market exchange rate as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses are recognized when forward contracts are settled. Risks may arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts; the Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with creditworthy counterparties.

Total Return Swaps:
 
On November 15, 2012, Halifax Funding entered into the TRS with the Bank of Nova Scotia (“BNS” or “counterparty”).
 
The TRS arrangement with BNS consists of a set of TRS agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the TRS, Halifax Funding may select a portfolio of single-name corporate loans and/or bonds (each a “TRS reference asset” and together the “TRS reference assets”) with a maximum aggregate notional amount of $500,000,000. Under the terms of the TRS agreements, each TRS reference asset included in the TRS portfolio constitutes a separate total return swap transaction, although all calculations, payments and transfers required to be made under the TRS agreements are calculated and treated on an aggregate basis, based upon all such transactions.
 
Halifax Funding receives quarterly from BNS (i) all collected interest and fees generated by TRS reference assets and (ii) realized gains from the sale or repayment of TRS reference assets, if any. Halifax Funding pays to BNS (i) interest on the TRS settled notional amount at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR+0.80% per annum if the initial investment amount (i.e. posted collateral) equals or exceeds 50% of the TRS trade basis notional amount, or three-month LIBOR+1.00% if the initial investment amount is less than 50% of the TRS trade basis notional amount and (ii) realized losses, if any. In addition, upon the termination of the TRS arrangement, Halifax Funding will either receive from BNS any net realized gain, or pay to BNS any net realized loss, in the liquidation of TRS reference assets.
 
Generally, the required collateral amount is at least 40% of the notional amount of each TRS reference asset at the time that such TRS reference asset is confirmed for acquisition by the counterparty. Halifax Funding may be required to post additional collateral, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, in the event of depreciation in the value of TRS reference assets after such value decreases below a specified amount. Halifax Funding is required to post additional collateral to ensure that the collateral market value, as solely determined by BNS, is at least equal to 25% of the value of the TRS portfolio.
 
The obligations of Halifax Funding under the TRS agreements are non-recourse to the Company and the Company’s exposure to the TRS is limited to the amount of cash collateral that is posted pursuant to the terms of the TRS agreements.  The Company has no contractual obligation to post any cash collateral or to make any interest payments to BNS. The Company may, but is not obligated to, increase its equity investment in Halifax Funding for the purpose of funding additional cash collateral or payment obligations for which Halifax Funding may become obligated during the term of the TRS agreements. If the Company does not make any such additional equity investment in Halifax Funding and Halifax Funding fails to meet its obligations under the TRS agreements, then BNS will have the right to terminate the TRS and use the collateral posted by Halifax Funding with the custodian to offset any amount owed to BNS. The Company may terminate the TRS at any time upon providing at least 30 days notice prior to the proposed settlement date of the TRS reference assets related to such termination. In the event of an early termination of the TRS, Halifax Funding would be required to pay an early termination fee based on the maximum spread amount to be earned by BNS over the life of the TRS Agreements. Halifax Funding would have been required to pay an early termination fee of $6,204,327 if the TRS had been terminated as of June 30, 2013. In the absence of an early termination as just described, the TRS will terminate on January 15, 2016.
 
As of June 30, 2013, Halifax Funding had selected 32 underlying debt positions with a total notional amount of $140,975,798 and had posted $107,948,112 in cash collateral, which is recorded as cash collateral on deposit with custodian on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The TRS settled notional amount as of June 30, 2013 was $212,994,046. The settled notional amount as of June 30, 2013 includes unsettled additions of reference assets of $19,286,516 and unsettled deletions of reference assets of $91,304,764.
 
As of December 31, 2012, Halifax Funding had selected 54 underlying debt positions with a total notional amount of $164,011,774 and had posted $87,974,019 in cash collateral, which is recorded as cash collateral on deposit with custodian on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The TRS settled notional amount as of December 31, 2012 was $105,013,915.

For the assets and investment that have more than one valuation technique, the Company may rely on the stated techniques individually or in the aggregate based on a weight ascribed to each valuation technique, ranging from 0 – 100%. Broker quotes obtained for valuation purposes are reviewed by the Company relative to other valuation techniques.
(3)
Weighted average amounts are based on the estimated fair values.
(4)
This column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs in isolation could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

The TRS was valued in accordance with the TRS agreements as discussed below.
 
(2)
For the assets and investment that have more than one valuation technique, the Company may rely on the stated techniques individually or in the aggregate based on a weight ascribed to each valuation technique, ranging from 0 – 100%. Indicative broker quotes obtained for valuation purposes are reviewed by the Company relative to other valuation techniques.

Weighted average amounts are based on the estimated fair values.

This column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs in isolation could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

The more significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s senior and subordinated loan investments are third-party indicative broker quotes. In the event that there are limited broker quotes, then the valuation process will further rely on the inputs from comparable investments and/or discounted cash flow analysis. Depending on the type of debt investment position held by the Company, the relative comparable value analysis may rely on any of (i) market yields, (ii) discount margin, (iii) illiquidity discount and (iv) leverage EBITDA multiples analysis to either confirm a single indicative broker quote, or to determine a fair value in the absence of any broker quote. Other significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments are also disclosed in the tables above. Any significant increases or decreases in these unobservable inputs would result in significant increases or decreases in the fair value of the Company’s investments.

The TRS is also classified as Level 3 at June 30, 2013. The Company valued its TRS in accordance with the TRS agreements between Halifax Funding and BNS, which collectively established the TRS. Pursuant to the TRS agreements, the value of the TRS is based on (i) the increase or decrease in the value of the TRS reference assets relative to the notional amounts, together with (ii) accrued interest income and fee income, (iii) TRS swap financing costs on the TRS settled notional amount, and (iv) certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The TRS reference assets are valued pursuant to the valuation algorithm specified in the TRS Agreements, including reliance on indicative bid prices provided by independent third-party pricing services. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. On a quarterly basis, the Company's management reviews, tests and compares (i) the indicative bid prices assigned to each TRS reference asset by BNS, based on the inputs provided to BNS by third-party pricing services with (ii) third-party service provider pricing inputs that are independently sourced by the Company’s management and/or its Advisors. To the extent the Company's management has any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the TRS reference assets, such valuations are discussed or challenged with BNS pursuant to the terms of the TRS agreements. Additionally, the Company’s management reviews the calculations of both collected and accrued interest, total return swap financing costs, and realized gains and losses that also determine the aggregate fair value of the TRS.  For additional disclosures on the Company’s TRS, including quantitative disclosures of the current period conclusions of the fair value components, as reviewed and determined by the Company’s board of directors, refer to Note 4.

No securities were transferred into the Level 3 hierarchy and six were transferred out of the Level 3 hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2013. These investments were transferred at fair value as of the beginning of the quarter in which they were transferred. The classification transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 were based on the observed changes in liquidity based on information supplied by a third party pricing source, whereby such liquidity information is routinely reviewed no less frequently than monthly. All realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings (changes in net assets) and are reported as separate line items within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The carrying value of cash and foreign currency is classified as Level 1 with respect to the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the Company’s credit facilities approximates their fair value and they would be classified as Level 2 with regards to the fair value hierarchy.

Agreements and Related Party Transactions

The Company entered into a managing dealer agreement with CNL Securities Corp., an affiliate of CNL. CNL Securities Corp. serves as the managing dealer of the Offering and in connection therewith receives selling commissions of up to 7% of gross offering proceeds and a marketing support fee of up to 3% of gross offering proceeds. All or any portion of these fees may be reallowed to participating brokers. The Company will pay a maximum sales load of 10% of gross offering proceeds for all combined selling commissions and marketing support fees.

The Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with CNL (together with one amendment, the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) for the overall management of the Company’s investment activities. The Company and CNL have entered into a sub-advisory agreement with KKR (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”), under which KKR is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company’s investment portfolio. CNL compensates KKR for advisory services that it provides to the Company with 50% of the base management fees and performance-based incentive fees that CNL receives under the Investment Advisory Agreement. CNL earns a base management fee equal to an annual rate of 2% of the Company’s average gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed months and it is computed and paid monthly. Gross assets include assets purchased with borrowed funds, TRS unrealized depreciation or appreciation and collateral posted with custodian in connection with TRS, but exclude deferred offering expense. CNL also earns a performance-based incentive fee that is comprised of the following two parts:

(i)
a subordinated incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, that is paid quarterly if earned, and it is computed as the sum of (A) 100% of quarterly pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 1.75% of average adjusted capital up to a limit of 0.4375% of average adjusted capital, and (B) 20% of pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 2.1875% of average adjusted capital and

(ii)
an incentive fee on capital gains that is paid annually if earned, and it is equal to 20% of (A) all realized gains on a cumulative basis from inception, net of (i) all realized losses on a cumulative basis, (ii) unrealized depreciation at year end and (iii) disregarding any net realized gains associated with the TRS interest spread (which represents the difference between (a) the interest and fees received on total return swaps, and (b) the financing fees paid to the total return swaps counterparty), and subtracting  (B) the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital gains.
 
The terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement entitle CNL (and indirectly KKR) to receive up to 5% of gross proceeds in
 
 
F-36

 
 
connection with the Offering as reimbursement for organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors on behalf of the Company. Beginning February 1, 2012, the Company implemented an initial reimbursement rate of 0.75% of gross offering proceeds to initiate the reimbursement of organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors. Beginning March 1, 2013, the Company changed the reimbursement rate to 1% of gross offering proceeds.

The Company entered into an administrative services agreement with CNL (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) whereby CNL performs, and oversees the performance of, various administrative services on behalf of the Company. Administrative services may include transfer agency oversight and supervisory services, shareholder communication services, general ledger accounting services, calculating the Company’s net asset value, maintaining required corporate and financial records, financial reporting for the Company and its subsidiaries, internal audit services, reporting to the Company's board of directors and lenders, preparing and filing income tax returns, preparing and filing SEC reports, preparing, printing and disseminating shareholder reports, overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and shareholder distributions, administering the quarterly share repurchase programs, compliance services, and management and oversight of service providers in their performance of administrative and professional services rendered for the Company. CNL may also enter into agreements with its affiliates for the performance of select administrative services. The Company reimburses CNL for the professional services and expenses it incurs in performing its administrative obligations on behalf of the Company.
 
CNL, certain CNL affiliates, and KKR receive compensation for advisory services and/or reimbursement of expenses in connection with (i) the performance and supervision of administrative services and (ii) the Offering. Related party fees, expenses and reimbursement of expenses incurred in the three and six month period ended June 30, 2013 and the three and six month period ended June 30, 2012 are summarized below:

The Advisors received reimbursement payments for offering expenses in the amount of $3,637,309 in the six months ended June 30, 2013, including $436,903 that was recorded as reimbursement payable at December 31, 2012. The Company recorded a reimbursement payable to the Advisors in the amount of $791,890 for offering expenses as of June 30, 2013 which is included in other accrued expenses and liabilities on the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The Advisors received reimbursement payments for organization and offering expenses in the amount of $1,184,860 in the six months ended June 30, 2012, including $896,218 for organization expenses and $288,642 for offering expenses. The Company recorded a reimbursement payable to the Advisors in the amount of $430,780 for offering expenses as of June 30, 2012 which is included in other accrued expenses and liabilities on the condensed statements of assets and liabilities. As of June 30, 2013, the outstanding unreimbursed Offering expenses, net of reimbursement payable, amounted to $1,627,885.

On June 7, 2011, the Company entered into an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with CNL and KKR pursuant to which CNL and KKR jointly and severally agreed to pay to the Company all operating expenses (an “Expense Support Payment”) during the Expense Support Payment Period between June 17, 2011 to December 31, 2011. On December 16, 2011, the Company and the Advisors entered into an amendment to the Expense Support Agreement, effective January 1, 2012, that extended the terminal date of the Expense Support Payment Period to March 31, 2012 and reduced the Reimbursement Ratio from 100% to 65% of the Company’s Operating Expenses. The Amendment also redefined Operating Expenses as all operating costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Company, as determined under GAAP, including base advisory fees payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, and excluding (i) performance-based incentive fees payable pursuant to the
 
 
F-37

 
 
Investment Advisory Agreement, (ii) organization and offering expenses, and (iii) all interest costs related to borrowings for such period. On March 16, 2012, the Company and the Advisors entered into an amendment and restatement of the Expense Support Agreement, effective April 1, 2012, that extended the terminal date of the Expense Support Payment Period to June 30, 2012 and reduced the Reimbursement Ratio from 65% to 25% of the Company’s Operating Expenses. Expense support payments ceased on July 1, 2012.

During the term of the Expense Support Agreement, the Advisors are entitled to an annual year-end reimbursement payment by the Company for unreimbursed Expense Support Payments made under the Expense Support Agreement (a “Reimbursement Payment”), but such Reimbursement Payments may only be paid (i) within three years after the year in which such Expense Support Payments are attributable, and (ii) to the extent that it would not cause the Company’s Other Operating Expenses (Operating Expenses excluding base management fees and including a Reimbursement Payment) to exceed 1.75% of average net assets attributable to common shares as of the end of any such calendar year (the “Reimbursement Limit Percentage”). The Company records the liability for the Reimbursement Payments based on a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the end of each reporting period.

Presented below is a summary of Expense Support Payments and the associated terminal eligibility dates for Reimbursement Payments for the years ending December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.

The Company conducts quarterly tender offers pursuant to its share repurchase program. The Company currently limits the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares it can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the issuance of shares of its common stock under its distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of the Company’s board of directors, the Company may also 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. The Company will limit repurchases in each quarter to 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters. The Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program upon 30 days’ notice.

(1)
The per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.
 
 
(2)
The amount shown at this caption is the balancing figure derived from the other figures in the schedule. The amount shown at this caption for a share outstanding throughout the entire period may not agree with the change in the aggregate net realized and unrealized gains and losses in portfolio securities for the period because of the timing of sales of the Company’s shares in relation to fluctuating market values for the portfolio securities.
 
 
(3)
The per share data for distributions is the actual amount of distributions paid or payable per share of common stock outstanding during the entire period; distributions per share are rounded to the nearest $0.01.
 
 
(4)
The continuous issuance of common stock may cause an incremental increase in net asset value per share due to the sale of shares at the then prevailing public offering price and the receipt of net proceeds per share by the Company in excess of net asset value per share on each subscription closing date. The per share data was derived by computing (i) the sum of (A) the number of shares issued in connection with subscriptions and/or distribution reinvestment on each share transaction date times (B) the differences between the net proceeds per share and the net asset value per share on each share transaction date, divided by (ii) the total shares outstanding at the end of the period.
 
 
(5)
The per share impact of the Company’s repurchase of common stock is a reduction to net asset value of less than $0.01 per share during the applicable period.
 
 
(6)
Total investment return-net price is a measure of total return for shareholders who purchased the Company’s common stock at the beginning of the period, including dividends declared during the period. Total investment return-net price is based on (i) the purchase of one share at the public offering price, net of sales load, on the first day of the period, (ii) the sale at the net asset value per share on the last day of the period, of (A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the cash payment for distributions payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment return-net price calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan are issued at the then public offering price, net of sales load, on each monthly distribution payment date. Since there is no public market for the Company’s shares, then the terminal sales price per share is assumed to be equal to net asset value per share on the last day of the period. The Company’s performance changes over time and currently may be different than that shown above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment performance is presented without regard to sales load that may be incurred by shareholders in the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock.
 
 
(7)
Total investment return-net asset value is a measure of the change in total value for shareholders who held the Company’s common stock at the beginning and end of the period, including dividends declared during the period. Total investment return-net asset value is based on (i) the beginning period net asset value per share on the first day of the period, (ii) the net asset value per share on the last day of the period, of (A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the value of distributions payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment return-net asset value calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan are issued at the then public offering price, net of sales load, on each monthly distribution payment date. Since there is no public market for the Company’s shares, then terminal market value per share is assumed to be equal to net asset value per share on the last day of the period. The Company’s performance changes over time and currently may be different than that shown above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment performance is presented without regard to sales load that may be incurred by shareholders in the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock.
 
 
(8)
The computation of average net assets and average credit facility borrowings during the period is based on the daily value of net assets and borrowing balances, respectively. Ratios are not annualized.
 
 
 (9)
Asset coverage ratio is equal to (i) the sum of (A) net assets at the end of the period and (B) debt outstanding at the end of the period, divided by (ii) total debt outstanding at the end of the period. For purposes of the asset coverage ratio test applicable to the Company as a business development company, the Company regards the TRS total notional amount at the end of the period, less the total amount of cash collateral posted by Halifax Funding under the TRS, as a senior security for the life of the TRS. These data are presented in Note 4 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

See Note 8 of the condensed consolidated financial statements for further insight into the sources of distributions that contribute to the occurrence of distributions in excess of net investment income.

Deutsche Bank Credit Facility
 
On February 11, 2013, CCT Funding, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, (“Deutsche Bank”), and the other lenders party thereto entered into an amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the multi-lender, revolving credit facility (“the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility”) that CCT Funding originally entered into with Deutsche Bank on August 22, 2011. Deutsche Bank is a lender and serves as administrative agent under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility.
 
The Third Amendment amended the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility by providing for, among other things, the extension of a new tranche of loan commitments (the “Tranche D Loans”) permitting additional borrowings in an aggregate amount of up to $100,000,000. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan became a Lender under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility. The Third Amendment reclassified the prior Tranche B Loans as the “Tranche B2 Loans” and the prior Tranche C Loans as the “Tranche B1 Loans.” As amended, loans under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility will generally bear interest based on a three-month adjusted LIBOR (“Adjusted LIBOR”) for the relevant interest period (except with respect to the Tranche A Loans, which bear interest based on one-month Adjusted LIBOR), plus a spread. Upfront fees and unfunded commitment fees were also incurred with respect to the Tranche B1 Loans, Tranche B2 Loans and Tranche D Loans under the Third Amendment. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has incurred deferred financing costs of $1,338,036 in connection with arranging and amending the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility.
 
Under the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility, CCT Funding has made certain representations and warranties and it is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for credit agreements of this nature. As of June 30, 2013, management believes that the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Deutsche Bank Credit Facility.

BNP Credit Facility
 
On June 4, 2013, the Company entered into a committed facility arrangement, which became effective on June 12, 2013, with BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage, Inc. (“BNP”) under which the Company may borrow up to $200,000,000. The BNP Credit Facility consists of a set of agreements (namely, a Committed Facility Agreement by and between the Company and BNP (the “BNP Credit Facility”), a U.S. Prime Brokerage Agreement by and between the Company and BNP and a Special Custody and Pledge Agreement by and among the Company, BNP and State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Custodian”), each dated as of June 4, 2013), which are collectively referred to herein as the BNP Financing Agreements.
 
The Company pledges certain of its assets as collateral to secure borrowings under the BNP Credit Facility. The pledged assets may consist of U.S. cash, U.S. Government securities and other margin-eligible securities acceptable to BNP and the Custodian. Such pledged assets are held in a segregated custody account with the Custodian. The amount of assets required to be pledged by the Company is determined in accordance with the margin requirements described in the BNP Financing Agreements. The Company retains the benefits of ownership of the assets pledged to secure borrowings under the Financing Agreements. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has investments with a fair value of $159,345,198 pledged as collateral under the BNP Credit Facility. Interest is charged at the rate of one month LIBOR plus 1.10% and is payable monthly. The Company also pays an annual commitment fee of 0.55% on any unused commitment amounts. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has incurred deferred financing costs of $413,503 in connection with arranging the BNP Credit Facility.
 
In connection with the BNP Credit Facility, the Company has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default and facility termination events, the BNP Financing Agreements contain the following additional facility termination events, among others: (a) the occurrence of a default, termination event or similar condition by the Company under third-party contracts above a specified value; (b) any change in BNP’s interpretation of applicable law that, in the reasonable opinion of external counsel to BNP, has the effect of impeding or prohibiting the arrangements under the BNP Financing Agreements; (c) specified material reductions in the Company’s net asset value, including if such net asset value declines at any month-end to less than 50% of its net asset value in effect as of the most recent fiscal year end; (d) any change in the Company’s fundamental investment policies; and (e) the termination of the investment management agreement with the Company’s investment advisor or if the Company’s investment advisor otherwise ceases to act as investment advisor of the Company and is not immediately replaced. The Company may terminate the BNP Credit Facility with 180 days’ notice. If certain margin and collateral requirements, minimum net assets or other covenants are not met, the BNP Credit Facility could be deemed in default and result in termination. Absent a default or facility termination event, BNP is required to provide the Company with 364 days’ notice prior to terminating or amending the BNP Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2013, management believes that the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the BNP Credit Facility.
 
Under the terms of the BNP Financing Agreements, BNP has the ability to borrow a portion of the pledged collateral (“Rehypothecated Securities”), subject to certain limits. The Company receives a fee from BNP in connection with any Rehypothecated Securities. The Company may designate any security within the pledged collateral as ineligible to be a Rehypothecated Security, provided there are eligible securities within the segregated custody account in an amount equal to the outstanding borrowings owed by the Company to BNP. The Company may recall any Rehypothecated Security at any time and BNP must, to the extent commercially reasonable, return such security or equivalent security within a commercially reasonable period. In the event BNP does not return the security, the Company will have the right to, among other things, apply and set off an amount equal to 100% of the then-current fair market value of such Rehypothecated Securities against any outstanding borrowings owed to BNP under the Financing Agreements. Rehypothecated Securities are marked-to-market daily and if the value of all Rehypothecated Securities exceeds 100% of the outstanding borrowings owed by the Company under the BNP Financing Agreements, BNP may either reduce the amount of Rehypothecated Securities to eliminate such excess or deposit into the segregated custody account an amount of cash equal to such excess. The Company will continue to receive interest and the scheduled repayment of principal balances on Rehypothecated Securities.

Guarantees and Commitments
 
In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into guarantees on behalf of portfolio companies. Under these arrangements, the Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. The Company has no such guarantees outstanding at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s unfunded commitments amounted to $20,150,000 for two loans associated with one portfolio company.

Subsequent Events
 
On July 10, 2013, the Company filed its tender offer statement with the SEC on Schedule TO. The Company is offering to repurchase up to 1,596,287 shares of common stock at a cash price of $9.78 per share.
 
As of August 9, 2013, the total amount borrowed under the Company’s credit facilities was $334,440,000.

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Corporate Capital Trust, Inc.:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities of Corporate Capital Trust, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), including the consolidated schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the period from June 9, 2010 (inception) to December 31, 2010, and the consolidated financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the period from June 17, 2011 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2011. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, by correspondence with the custodians, or loan agents; where replies were not received we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations, changes in its net assets, and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the period from June 9, 2010 (inception) to December 31, 2010, and the financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the period from June 17, 2011 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Non-income producing security.
(a)
Security may be an obligation of one or more entities affiliated with the named company.
(b)
Denominated in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise noted.
(c)
Represents amortized cost for debt securities and cost for common stock.
(d)
Non-Control/Non-Affiliate investments are defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”) as investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. Controlled investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in which more than 25% of the voting securities are owned or where the ability to nominate greater than 50% of the board representation is maintained. Affiliate investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in which between 5% and 25% of the voting securities are owned and the investments are not classified as Controlled investments.
(e)
Security or portion thereof is held within CCT Funding, LLC and is pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility with Deutsche Bank.
(f)
This security was acquired in a transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to Rule 144A thereunder. This security may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, normally to qualified institutional buyers.
(g)
The investment is not a qualifying asset as defined in Section 55(a) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. A business development company may not acquire any asset other than qualifying assets, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the company’s total assets. The Company calculates its compliance with the qualifying assets test on a "look through" basis by disregarding the value of the Company’s total return swaps and treating each loan underlying the total return swaps as either a qualifying assets or non-qualifying asset based on whether the obligor is an eligible portfolio company. On this basis, 79.3% of the Company’s total assets represented qualifying assets as of December 31, 2012.
(h)
A portfolio company domiciled in a foreign country.
(i)
Investments classified as Level 3 whereby fair value was determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (see Note 2).
(j)
Position or portion thereof unsettled as of December 31, 2012.
(k)
A portfolio company investment structured as a credit-linked floating rate note.
(l)
7-day effective yield as of December 31, 2012.
(m)
As of December 31, 2012, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was $14,999,786; the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value was $8,758,754; the net unrealized appreciation was $6,241,032; the aggregate cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes was $704,629,567.
(n)

CORPORATE CAPITAL TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

1.
Principal Business and Organization

Corporate Capital Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on June 9, 2010. The Company is a non-diversified closed-end management investment company and it is regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “40 Act”). The Company’s investment objective is to provide its shareholders with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation, by investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on originated transactions sourced through the networks of its advisors.
 
The Company is externally managed by CNL Fund Advisors Company (“CNL”) and KKR Asset Management LLC (“KKR”) (collectively the “Advisors”), which are responsible for sourcing potential investments, analyzing and conducting due diligence on prospective investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring the Company’s investment portfolio on an ongoing basis. Both Advisors are registered as investment advisers with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). CNL also provides the administrative services necessary for the Company to operate.
 
The Company is currently selling shares of its common stock pursuant to a registration statement on Form N-2 (as amended and supplemented, the “Registration Statement”) and it is offering to sell, on a continuous basis, 150 million shares of common stock for approximately $1.6 billion (the “Offering”). The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 4, 2011 and the Company commenced its Offering. The Company commenced business operations on June 17, 2011 and it commenced investment operations on July 1, 2011.
 
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had two wholly owned financing subsidiaries, CCT Funding LLC (“CCT Funding”), which was established on July 15, 2011 for the purpose of arranging a secured, revolving credit facility with a bank and to borrow money to invest in portfolio companies, and Halifax Funding LLC (“Halifax Funding”), which was established on October 11, 2012 for the purpose of entering into total return swaps (“TRS”).

Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-K and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company consolidates the results of the Company’s subsidiaries in its consolidated financial statements. All intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, (ii) the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period and (iii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits, foreign currency, and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Valuation of Investments - The Company measures the value of its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC Topic 820”), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
 
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from independent pricing services, broker-dealers or market makers. With respect to the Company’s portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Company’s board of directors is responsible for determining in good faith the fair value in accordance with the valuation policy approved by the board of directors. The board of directors will make this fair value determination on a quarterly basis and any other time when a decision regarding the fair value of the portfolio investments is required. A determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of portfolio investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
 
 
F-64

 

ASC Topic 820 also defines hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuations of these assets and liabilities, and the hierarchical levels are described as follows:
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Publicly listed equities, debt securities and publicly listed derivatives are generally included in Level 1. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments. The Company’s money market fund/short term investment funds and foreign currency are included in this category.
 
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. In certain cases, debt and equity securities are valued on the basis of prices from orderly transactions for similar investments in active markets between market participants and provided by reputable dealers or independent pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrices, market transactions in comparable investments, and various relationships between investments. Investments generally included in this category are corporate bonds and loans, convertible debt indexed to publicly listed securities, foreign currency forward contracts and certain over-the-counter derivatives.
 
Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant judgment or estimation. Investments generally included in this category are total return swap agreements, and corporate bonds/loans and common stock investments that lack observable market pricing.
 
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and it considers factors specific to the investment.
 
Security Transactions, Realized/Unrealized Gains or Losses, and Income Recognition - Security transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. The Company measures realized gains or losses from the repayment or sale of investments using the specific identification method. The amortized cost basis of investments includes (i) the original cost and (ii) adjustments for the accretion/amortization of market discounts and premiums, original issue discount and loan origination fees. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums to par value and accretion of discounts to par value. Discounts and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. Premiums and discounts are determined based on the cash flows expected to be collected for a particular investment. Structuring service fees, origination, closing, commitment and other upfront fees are generally non-recurring and recognized as revenue when earned. Loan origination fees received in connection with the closing of investments are accreted over the contractual life of the loan based on the effective interest method as interest income. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties, unamortized loan origination fees, unamortized original issue discount, and unamortized market discounts are recorded as interest income.
 
The Company has investments in debt securities which contain a contractual payment-in-kind, or PIK, interest provision. If the borrower elects to pay, or is obligated to pay, PIK interest, and if deemed collectible in management’s judgment, then the PIK interest is computed at the contractual rate specified in the investment’s credit agreement, the computed PIK interest is added to the principal balance of the investment, and the computed PIK interest is recorded as interest income.
 
Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.

Loans or debt securities are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are at least 90 days past due or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Generally, accrued interest is reversed when a loan or a debt security is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans or debt securities may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Non-accrual loans and debt securities are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
 
 
F-65

 
 
Derivative Instruments - The Company’s derivative instruments include foreign currency forward contracts and total return swaps. The Company marks its derivatives to market through net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Costs - Deferred financing costs represent fees and other direct costs incurred in connection with arranging the Company’s borrowings and the TRS. These amounts are initially recorded as prepaid and deferred expenses on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities and then subsequently amortized over the contractual term of the credit facility or TRS as interest expense.
 
Paid In Capital - The Company records the proceeds from the sale of its common stock on a net basis to (i) capital stock and (ii) paid in capital in excess of par value, excluding all commissions and marketing support fees.

Foreign Currency Translation, Transactions and Gains/Losses - Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) at the exchange rate on the last business day of the reporting period for the fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities; and (ii) at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective recording dates for the purchase and sale of investment securities, income, expenses, gains and losses.
 
Net assets and fair values are presented based on the applicable foreign exchange rates described above and the Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held; therefore the fluctuations related to foreign exchange rate conversion are included with the net realized gain (loss) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments.
 
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from activity in foreign currency forward contracts, sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded by the Company and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid by the Company. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from currency translation for foreign currency forward contracts is included in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from foreign currency translation for other receivables or payables is presented as net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency translation in the consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts is included with unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Management Fees - The Company accrues for the base management fee (recorded as investment advisory fees) and performance-based incentive fees, including (i) a subordinated incentive fee on income and (ii) an incentive fee on capital gains. The Company records the liability for the incentive fee on capital gains based on a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the end of each reporting period. Therefore the accrual for incentive fee on capital gains includes the recognition of incentive fee on both net realized gains and net unrealized appreciation, if any, although any such incentive fee associated with net unrealized appreciation is neither earned nor payable to the Advisors until net unrealized appreciation is realized as net realized gains. Additionally the determination of whether the accrued incentive fee associated with net realized gains is earned and payable to the Advisors can only be made at the end of the calendar year. The two components of performance-based incentive fees are combined and expensed on the consolidated statements of operations and accrued on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as accrued performance-based incentive fees.

Organization and Offering Expenses - Organization expenses, including reimbursement payments to Advisors, are expensed on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Continuous offering expenses, including reimbursement payments to Advisors, but excluding commission and marketing support fees, are accumulated monthly and capitalized on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as deferred offering expenses and then subsequently expensed over a 12-month period.

Earnings per Share - Earnings per share is calculated based upon the daily weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period.

Dividends and Distributions - Dividends and distributions are declared by the Company’s board of directors each calendar quarter and recognized as distribution liabilities on the ex-dividend date. The ex-dividend date for the Company’s common stock is the same as the record date. Net realized gains, if any, generally are distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such net realized gains for investment.

The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of distributions on behalf of shareholders. Shareholders who have elected to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock at a price per share equivalent to the public offering price on the distribution payment date, net of commissions and marketing support fees.
 
 
F-66

 
 
Federal Income Taxes - The Company has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to maintain its qualification as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). Generally, a RIC is not subject to federal income taxes on distributed income and gains if it distributes at least 90% of “Investment Company Taxable Income,” as defined in the Code. The Company intends to distribute sufficient dividends to maintain its RIC status each year and it does not anticipate paying a material level of federal income taxes in the future.

The Company is also generally subject to nondeductible federal excise taxes if it does not distribute an amount at least equal to the sum (i) 98% of net ordinary income, (ii) 98.2% of the Company’s capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Company paid no federal income tax. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this excess taxable income.

The Company recognizes in its consolidated financial statements the effect of a tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria of ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Overall –Recognition, nor did it have any unrecognized tax benefits as of the periods presented herein. Although the Company files federal and state tax returns, its major tax jurisdiction is federal.
 
Book and tax basis differences relating to permanent book and tax differences are reclassified among the Company’s capital accounts, as appropriate. Additionally, the tax character of distributions is determined in accordance with the Code which may differ from GAAP. See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements.
 
Prior to the Company’s election for tax treatment as a RIC, it was subject to corporate federal and state income taxes on its taxable income. The Company did not have taxable income prior to the RIC election in 2011.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2013, the FASB clarified the scope of offsetting disclosure requirements which require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods, with retrospective disclosures required for all comparative periods presented. The Company does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
3.
Investments
 
The Company is engaged in a strategy to invest primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies. The primary investment concentrations include (i) senior debt securities and (ii) subordinated debt securities. The fair value of senior and subordinated debt investments will generally fluctuate with, among other things, changes in prevailing interest rates, the general supply of, and demand for, debt capital among private and public companies, general domestic and global economic conditions, the condition of certain financial markets, developments or trends in any particular industry and changes in the financial condition and credit quality of each security’s issuer.

Investment purchases, sales and principal payments/paydowns are summarized below for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. These purchase and sale amounts exclude short-term investments (i.e. money market fund investments) and derivative instruments.

The Company’s investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit, unfunded delayed draw loan commitments, or revolving credit facilities, which require the Company to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had two unfunded delayed draw loan commitments that amounted to $1,012,317. The Company maintains sufficient cash on hand to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.
 
As of December 31, 2012, none of the Company’s debt investments were on non-accrual status or in monetary default.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts:

The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to facilitate settlement of purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies and to economically hedge the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date (usually the security transaction settlement date) at a negotiated forward rate. These contracts are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the contract exchange rate and the current market exchange rate as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses are recognized when forward contracts are settled. Risks may arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts; the Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with creditworthy counterparties.

There were no open foreign currency forward contracts at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2012, the details of the Company’s open foreign currency forward contracts were as follows:

Total Return Swaps:

On November 15, 2012, Halifax Funding entered into the TRS with the Bank of Nova Scotia (“BNS”).

The TRS arrangement with BNS consists of a set of TRS agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the TRS, Halifax Funding may select a portfolio of single-name corporate loans and/or bonds (each a “TRS reference asset” and together the “TRS reference assets”) with a maximum aggregate notional amount of $500,000,000. Under the terms of the TRS, each reference asset included in the TRS portfolio constitutes a separate total return swap transaction, although all calculations, payments and transfers required to be made under the TRS are calculated and treated on an aggregate basis, based upon all such transactions.

Halifax Funding receives quarterly from BNS i) all collected interest and fees generated by the TRS reference assets and ii) realized gains, if any. Halifax Funding pays to BNS i) interest on the TRS settled notional amount at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR+0.80% per annum if the initial investment amount (i.e. posted collateral) equals or exceeds 50% of the TRS trade basis notional amount, or three-month LIBOR+1.00% if the initial investment amount is less than 50% of the TRS trade basis notional amount and ii) realized losses, if any. In addition, upon the termination, sale or repayment of any reference asset, Halifax Funding will either receive from BNS the net realized gain in the value, or pay to BNS any net realized loss in the value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets.

Generally, the required collateral amount is at least 40% of the notional amount of each TRS reference asset at the time that such TRS reference asset is confirmed for inclusion as a TRS reference asset by the counterparty. Halifax Funding may be required to post additional cash collateral, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, in the event of depreciation in the value of the reference assets after such value decreases below a specified amount. The minimum additional TRS cash collateral that Halifax Funding is required to post is equal to the amount required to ensure that the collateral market value, as solely determined by BNS, is at least equal to 25% of the value of the portfolio of TRS reference assets.

 
F-70

 

The obligations of Halifax Funding under the TRS agreements are non-recourse to the Company and the Company’s exposure to the TRS is limited to the amount of cash collateral that is posted pursuant to the terms of the TRS agreement. The Company has no contractual obligation to post any cash collateral or to make any interest payments to BNS. The Company may, but is not obligated to, increase its equity investment in Halifax Funding for the purpose of funding additional cash collateral or payment obligations for which Halifax Funding may become obligated during the term of the TRS agreements. If the Company does not make any such additional equity investment in Halifax Funding and Halifax Funding fails to meet its obligations under the TRS agreements, then BNS will have the right to terminate the TRS and use the cash collateral posted by Halifax Funding with the custodian to offset any amount owed to BNS. In the event of an early termination of the TRS, Halifax Funding would be required to pay an early termination fee. In the absence of an early termination as described above, the TRS will terminate on January 15, 2016. The Company may terminate the TRS at any time upon providing at least 30 days’ notice prior to the proposed settlement date of the reference assets related to such termination.

Realized gains and losses on the TRS are composed of any gains or losses on the reference assets as well as the net interest received or paid on the quarterly TRS settlement date. Unrealized gains and losses on the TRS are composed of the net accrued interest income and accrued interest expense owed and the overall change in fair value of the reference assets. The fair value of the TRS is included in unrealized appreciation on derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The change in value of the TRS is included in the consolidated statements of operations as net change in unrealized appreciation on derivative instruments.

As of December 31, 2012, Halifax Funding had selected 54 underlying loans with a total notional amount of $164,011,774 and had posted $87,974,019 in cash collateral (of which only $65,604,709 was required to be posted), which is reflected in cash collateral on deposit with custodian on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The settled notional amount as of December 31, 2012 was $105,013,915. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company and it wholly subsidiary CCT Funding sold $113,951,381 of loans at market prices to BNS in connection with the selection and acquisition of TRS reference assets.

The following table summarizes the fair value components of the portfolio of TRS reference assets as of December 31, 2012, as determined by the Company’s board of directors:

The TRS was valued in accordance with the TRS Agreement as discussed below.
(2)
For the assets and investment that have more than one valuation technique, the Company may rely on the stated techniques individually or in the aggregate based on a weight ascribed to each valuation technique, ranging from 0 – 100%. Broker quotes obtained for valuation purposes are reviewed by the Company relative to other valuation techniques.
(3)
Weighted average amounts are based on the estimated fair values. If noted as NA, then the number of inputs is too few to compute the weighted average for the range.

The more significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s senior and subordinated loan investments are quotes obtained from unaffiliated brokers. In the event that there are limited broker quotes, then the valuation process will further rely on the inputs from comparable investments and/or discounted cash flow analysis. Depending on the type of loan investment position held by the Company, the relative comparable value analysis may rely on any of (i) market yields, (ii) discount margin, (iii) illiquidity discount and (iv) leverage EBITDA multiples analysis to either confirm a single broker quote, or to generate a fair value in the absence of any broker quote. Other significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments are also disclosed in the table above. Any significant increases or decreases in these unobservable inputs would result in significant increases or decreases in the fair value of the Company’s investments.

The TRS is also classified as Level 3 at December 31, 2012. The Company valued its TRS in accordance with the TRS agreements between Halifax Funding and BNS, which collectively established the TRS. Pursuant to the TRS agreements, the value of the TRS is based on (i) the increase or decrease in the value of the TRS reference assets relative to the notional amounts, together with (ii) accrued interest income and fee income, (iii) TRS swap financing costs on the TRS settled trade notional amount, and (iv) certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The TRS reference assets are valued pursuant to the valuation algorithm specified the TRS Agreement, including reliance on indicative bid prices provided by independent third-party pricing services. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. On a quarterly basis, the Company’s management reviews, tests and compares (i) the indicative bid prices assigned to each TRS reference asset by BNS, based on the inputs provided to BNS by third-party pricing services with (ii) third-party service provider pricing inputs that are independently sourced by the Company’s management and/or its Advisors. To the extent the Company’s management has any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the TRS reference assets, such valuations are discussed or challenged with BNS pursuant to the terms of the TRS agreements. Additionally, the Company’s management reviews the calculations of both collected and accrued interest, total return swap financing costs, and realized gains and losses that also determine the aggregate fair value of the TRS. For additional disclosures on the Company’s TRS, including quantitative disclosures of the current period conclusions of the fair value components, as reviewed and approved by the Company’s board of directors, refer to Note 4.

Eight securities were transferred into the Level 3 hierarchy and four were transferred out of the Level 3 hierarchy during the year ended December 31, 2012. These investments were transferred at fair value as of the beginning of the quarter in which they were transferred. The classification transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 were based on the observed changes in liquidity based on information supplied by a third party pricing source, whereby such liquidity information is routinely reviewed no less frequently than monthly. All realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings (changes in net assets) and are reported as separate line items within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The Company held no investments prior to July 1, 2011 and there were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 relative to prior periods.

The carrying value of cash and foreign currency is classified as Level 1 with respect to the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the revolving credit facility approximates its fair value and it would be classified as Level 2 with respect to the fair value hierarchy.

Agreements and Related Party Transactions

The Company entered into a managing dealer agreement with CNL Securities Corp., an affiliate of CNL. CNL Securities Corp. serves as the managing dealer of the Offering and in connection therewith receives selling commissions of up to 7% of gross offering proceeds, a marketing support fee of up to 3% of gross offering proceeds, and reimbursement of due diligence and certain other expenses incurred in connection with the Offering. All or any portion of these fees and expense reimbursements may be reallowed to participating brokers. The Company will pay a maximum sales load of 10% of gross offering proceeds for all combined selling commissions, marketing support fees and expense reimbursements.

The Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with CNL (together with one amendment, the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) for the overall management of the Company’s investment activities. The Company and CNL have entered into a sub-advisory agreement with KKR (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”), under which KKR is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company’s investment portfolio. CNL earns a base management fee equal to an annual rate of 2% of the Company’s average gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed months and it is computed and paid monthly. Gross assets include assets purchased with borrowed funds, unrealized depreciation or appreciation on total return swaps and cash collateral on deposit with custodian in connection with TRS, but exclude deferred offering expense. CNL also earns a performance-based incentive fee that is comprised of the following two parts: (i) a subordinated incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, and (ii) an incentive fee on capital gains. The subordinated incentive fee, paid quarterly if earned, is computed as the sum of (A) 100% of quarterly pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 1.75% of average adjusted capital up to a limit of 0.4375% of average adjusted capital, and (B) 20% of pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 2.1875% of average adjusted capital. The incentive fee on capital gains, paid annually if earned, is equal to 20% of realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, net of (A) all realized capital losses and unrealized depreciation on a cumulative basis and (B) net of the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital gains. CNL compensates KKR for advisory services that it provides to the Company with 50% of the base management fees and performance-based incentive fees that CNL receives under the Investment Advisory Agreement.

In November 2012, the Company entered into the TRS for the purpose of gaining economic exposure to a portfolio of broadly syndicated corporate loans and bonds. For purposes of computing the performance-based incentive fee, the Company, in a manner consistent with GAAP, treats both a) the interest spread, which represents the difference between i) the interest and fees received on the TRS reference assets and ii) the interest paid to BNS on the settled notional value of the TRS, and b) the net realized gains or losses on the sale or maturity of TRS reference assets as realized gains or losses on derivative instruments. Therefore the net economic benefits, if any, associated with the TRS are included in the computation of the incentive fee on capital gains.

The terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement entitle CNL (and indirectly KKR) to receive up to 5% of gross proceeds in connection with the Offering as reimbursement for organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors on behalf of the Company. The Advisors waived the requirement for the Company to reimburse them for organization and offering expenses for the period from June 17, 2011 through January 31, 2012. The waiver of organization and offering expense reimbursement requirements did not reduce the overall amount of organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors that is eligible for reimbursement by the Company in future periods. Beginning February 1, 2012, the Company implemented a reimbursement rate of 0.75% of gross offering proceeds to initiate the reimbursement of organization and offering expenses incurred by the Advisors.

The Company entered into an administrative services agreement with CNL (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) whereby CNL performs, and oversees the performance of, various administrative services on behalf of the Company. Administrative services may include transfer agency oversight and supervisory services, shareholder communication services, general ledger accounting, maintaining required corporate and financial records, financial reporting for the Company and its subsidiaries, audit services, preparation of reports to the Company’s board of directors and lenders, calculating the Company’s net asset value, filing tax returns, preparing and filing SEC reports, preparing, printing and disseminating shareholder reports, overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and shareholder distributions, oversight of services providers and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. CNL may also enter into agreements with its affiliates for the performance of select administrative services or the retention of personnel. The Company reimburses CNL and its affiliates for the professional services and expenses it incurs in performing its administrative obligations on behalf of the Company.

CNL, certain CNL affiliates, and KKR receive compensation and reimbursement of expenses in connection with (i) the performance and supervision of administrative services and (ii) the Offering. Related party fees, expenses and reimbursement of expenses incurred in the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are summarized below:

The Advisors received reimbursement payments for organization and offering expenses in the amount of $3,814,094 in the year ended December 31, 2012, including $896,218 for organization expenses and $2,917,876 for offering expenses. The Company recorded a reimbursement payable to the Advisors in the amount of $436,903 for offering expenses as of December 31, 2012 which is included in other accrued expenses and liabilities on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

On June 7, 2011, the Company entered into an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with CNL and KKR pursuant to which CNL and KKR jointly and severally agreed to pay to the Company all operating expenses (an “Expense Support Payment”) during the Expense Support Payment Period between June 17, 2011 to December 31, 2011. On December 16, 2011, the Company and the Advisors entered into an amendment to the Expense Support Agreement, effective January 1, 2012, that extended the terminal date of the Expense Support Payment Period to March 31, 2012 and reduced the Reimbursement Ratio from 100% to 65% of the Company’s Operating Expenses. The Amendment also redefined Operating Expenses as all operating costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Company, as determined under GAAP, including base advisory fees payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, and excluding (i) performance-based incentive fees payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, (ii) organization and offering expenses, and (iii) all interest costs related to borrowings for such period. On March 16, 2012, the Company and the Advisors entered into an amendment and restatement of the Expense Support Agreement, effective April 1, 2012, that extended the terminal date of the Expense Support Payment Period to June 30, 2012 and

reduced the Reimbursement Ratio from 65% to 25% of the Company’s Operating Expenses. Expense support payments ceased on July 1, 2012.

(1)         As of December 31, 2012 the Company has accrued $1,829,749 for potential annual year-end reimbursement payment to Advisors.

During the term of the Expense Support Agreement, the Advisors are entitled to an annual year-end reimbursement payment by the Company for unreimbursed Expense Support Payments made under the Expense Support Agreement (a “Reimbursement Payment”), but such Reimbursement Payments may only be paid (i) within three years after the year in which such Expense Support Payments are attributable, (ii) to the extent that it would not cause the Company’s Other Operating Expenses (Operating Expenses excluding base and incentive advisory fees and organization/offering expenses) to exceed 1.91% of average net assets attributable to common shares as of the end of any such calendar year and (iii) after January 1, 2013 (the “Reimbursement Limit Percentage”). On December 31, 2012, the Company and the Advisors entered into an amendment to the Expense Support Agreement that reduced the Reimbursement Limit Percentage to 1.75%. The Company records the liability for the Reimbursement Payments based on a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the end of each reporting period. Management believes that additional liabilities for Reimbursement Payments are not probable as of December 31, 2012.

Indemnification - The Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement provide certain indemnification to the Advisors, their directors, officers, persons associated with the Advisors, and their affiliates. The managing dealer agreement provides certain indemnification to the managing dealer and each participating broker and their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons. As of December 31, 2012, management believes that the risk of incurring any losses for such indemnification is remote.

The Company intends to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to its share repurchase program. The Company currently intends to limit the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares it can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the issuance of shares of its common stock under its distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of the Company’s board of directors, the Company may also 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. The Company will limit repurchases in each quarter to 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters. The Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program upon 30 days’ notice.
The following table is a summary of the share repurchases completed during the year ended December 31, 2012:

(1)
The per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding during the year/period.
 
(2)
The amount shown at this caption is the balancing figure derived from the other figures in the schedule. The amount shown at this caption for a share outstanding throughout the entire period may not agree with the change in the aggregate net realized and unrealized gains and losses in portfolio securities for the period because of the timing of sales of the Company’s shares in relation to fluctuating market values for the portfolio securities.
 
(3)
The per share data for distributions is the actual amount of distributions paid or payable per share of common stock outstanding during the entire period; distributions per share are rounded to the nearest $0.01.
 
(4)
The continuous issuance of common stock may cause an incremental increase in net asset value per share due to the sale of shares at the then prevailing public offering price and the receipt of net proceeds per share by the Company in excess of net asset value per share on each subscription closing date. The per share data was derived by computing (i) the sum of (A) the number of shares issued in connection with subscriptions and/or distribution reinvestment on each share transaction date times (B) the differences between the net proceeds per share and the net asset value per share on each share transaction date, divided by (ii) the total shares outstanding at the end of the period.
 
(5)
Total investment return-net price is a measure of total return for shareholders who purchased the Company’s common stock at the beginning of the period, including dividends declared during the period. Total investment return-net price is based on (i) the purchase of one share at the public offering price, net of sales load, on the first day of the period, (ii) the sale at the net asset value per share on the last day of the period, of (A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the cash payment for distributions payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment return-net price calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan are issued at the then public offering price, net of sales load, on each monthly distribution payment date. Since there is no public market for the Company’s shares, then the terminal sales price per share is assumed to be equal to net asset value per share on the last day of the period. The Company’s performance changes over time and currently may be different than that shown above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment performance is presented without regard to sales load that may be incurred by shareholders in the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock.
 
(6)
Total investment return-net asset value is a measure of the change in total value for shareholders who held the Company’s common stock at the beginning and end of the period, including dividends declared during the period. Total investment return-net asset value is based on (i) the beginning period net asset value per share on the first day of the period, (ii) the net asset value per share on the last day of the period, of (A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the value of distributions payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment return-net asset value calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan are issued at the then public offering price, net of sales load, on each monthly distribution payment date. Since there is no public market for the Company’s shares, then terminal market value per share is assumed to be equal to net asset value per share on the last day of the period. The Company’s performance changes over time and currently may be different than that shown above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment performance is presented without regard to sales load that may be incurred by shareholders in the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock.
 
(7)
The computation of average net assets during the period is based on the daily value of net assets.
 
(8)
Asset coverage ratio is equal to (i) the sum of (A) net assets at the end of the period and (B) total debt outstanding at the end of the period, divided by (ii) total debt outstanding at the end of the period. For purposes of the asset coverage ratio test applicable to the Company as a business development company, the Company regards the TRS total notional amount at the end of the period, less the total amount of cash collateral posted by Halifax Funding under the TRS, as a senior security for the life of the TRS. These data are presented in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements.
 
 (9)
Expense support is equal to the difference between (A) reimbursement of expense support and (B) expense support, as reported on the consolidated statements of operations.

Revolving Credit Facility and Borrowings

On August 22, 2011, CCT Funding entered into a revolving credit facility agreement (including amendments, the “Credit Agreement”) with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (“Deutsche Bank”). As of December 31, 2012, Deutsche Bank is the sole initial lender and serves as administrative agent under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement initially provided for borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $75,000,000 on a committed basis (the “Tranche A Loans”). To partially exercise the accordion feature, CCT Funding entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) of its Credit Agreement on February 28, 2012, which provided for the extension of a second tranche of commitments permitting additional borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $100,000,000 (the “Tranche B Loans”). On August 20, 2012, CCT Funding entered into a second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement, which provided for the extension of a third tranche of additional borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $65,000,000 (the “Tranche C Loans”), for total borrowings available under the facility of $240,000,000. Under the Credit Agreement, CCT Funding has made certain representations and warranties and it is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for credit agreements of this nature. As of December 31, 2012, management believes that the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has incurred deferred financing costs of $303,403 in connection with arranging and amending the Credit Agreement.

Guarantees and Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into guarantees on behalf of portfolio companies. Under these arrangements, the Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. The Company has no such guarantees outstanding at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2012, the Company was committed to fund $1,012,317 for two delayed draw term loans associated with two portfolio companies. The Company received a non-refundable fee of $30,488 in connection with one delayed draw term loan commitment.

13.
Federal Income Taxes

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with the Code and federal tax regulations, which may differ from amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. The book-to-tax basis differences, which could be material, are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Company and expenses incurred by the Company. Permanent book and tax basis differences result in reclassifications to paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed realized gain/(loss). Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net realized gain/(loss) may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in subsequent periods.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company made the following reclassifications of permanent book and tax basis differences:
