Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2020

(unaudited)

Note 1. Organization

Audax Credit BDC Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that was formed on January 29, 2015. The Company is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, effective with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2015, the Company has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Company commenced business operations on July 8, 2015, the date on which the Company made its first investment. The Company has been formed for the purpose of investing primarily in the debt of leveraged, non-investment grade middle market companies, with the principal objective of generating income and capital appreciation.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

As an investment company, the accompanying financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of ASC Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies,” as amended (“ASC Topic 946”), which incorporates the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X, as well as generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

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. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management of the Company, the unaudited financial results included herein contain all adjustments, consisting solely of normal accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim period included herein. The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for future periods. The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less and money market mutual funds to be cash equivalents. No cash equivalent balances were held at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. At such dates, cash was not subject to any restrictions on withdrawal.

Expenses

The Company is responsible for investment expenses, legal expenses, auditing fees and other expenses related to the Company’s operations. Such fees and expenses, including expenses initially incurred by the Adviser, may be reimbursed by the Company.

Investment Valuation Policy

The Company conducts the valuation of the Company’s investments, pursuant to which the Company’s net asset value is determined, at all times consistent with GAAP and the 1940 Act. The Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of the Company’s Audit Committee, determines the fair value of the Company’s investments, for investments with a public market and for investments with no readily available public market, on at least a quarterly basis, in accordance with the terms of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” (“ASC 820”). The Company’s valuation procedures are set forth in more detail below.

ASC 820 defines fair value as “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.” Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. For some assets and liabilities, observable market transactions or market information might be available. For other assets and liabilities, observable market transactions and market information might not be available. However, the objective of a fair value measurement in both cases is the same – to estimate the price when an orderly transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions (that is, an exit price at the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability).

ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework which ranks the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instruments and their specific characteristics. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement is defined as follows:

Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these instruments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position, and a sale could reasonably be expected to impact the quoted price.

Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in markets that are not active, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.

judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments in this category include investments in privately held entities, non-investment grade residual interests in securitizations, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument.

Pursuant to the framework set forth above, the Company values securities traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the exchange closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments from pricing services, brokers or dealers’ quotes, or counterparty marks in order to value liquid assets that are not traded in active markets.

Pricing services aggregate, evaluate and report pricing from a variety of sources including observed trades of identical or similar securities, broker or dealer quotes, model-based valuations and internal fundamental analysis and research. When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient in accordance with GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined adequate, the Company uses the quote obtained.

Securities that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors, does not represent fair value, are each valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available. These valuation techniques vary by investment but include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and discounted cash flow analyses. Inputs for these valuation techniques include relative credit information, observed market movement, industry sector information, and other market data, which may include benchmarking of comparable securities, issuer spreads, reported trades, and reference data, such as market research publications, when available. The process used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by the investment professionals of the Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment using a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs and updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs. Additionally, as a part of the Company’s valuation process, the Adviser may be assisted by one or more independent valuation firms engaged by the Company; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with the Company’s senior management and members of the Adviser’s valuation team; (iii) the Company’s Audit Committee reviews the assessments of the Adviser or independent valuation firm (to the extent applicable) and provides the Company’s Board of Directors with recommendations with respect to the fair value of the investments in the Company’s portfolio; and (iv) the Company’s Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Company’s Audit Committee and determines the fair value of the investments in the Company’s portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Adviser, the independent valuation firm (to the extent applicable) and in accordance with the Company’s valuation policy.

The Company’s Audit Committee’s recommendation of fair value is generally based on its assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

the portfolio company’s ability to make payments;

the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

prevailing interest rates for like securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

comparisons to publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available as of the measurement date, which in many cases may reflect up to a one quarter lag in information.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which a pricing source is not sufficient may include the following:

private placements and restricted securities that do not have an active trading market;

securities whose trading has been suspended or for which market quotes are no longer available;

debt securities that have recently gone into default and for which there is no current market;

securities whose prices are stale; and

securities affected by significant events.

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the determination, in good faith, of the fair value of the Company’s portfolio investments.

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, these notes to the

Company’s financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on the Company’s financial statements.

Security transactions are recorded on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed or, in the case of privately issued securities, the closing date, which is when all terms of the transactions have been defined).

Realized gains and losses on investments are determined based on the identified cost method.

Refer to Note 3 — Investments for additional information regarding fair value measurements and the Company’s application of ASC 820.

Interest Income Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium, acquisition costs, and amendment fees and the accretion of original issue discount (“OID”), are recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Generally, when a loan becomes 120 days or more past due, or if the Company’s qualitative assessment indicates that the debtor is unable to service its debt or other obligations, the Company will place the loan on non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until the borrower has demonstrated the ability and intent to pay contractual amounts due. However, the Company will remain contractually entitled to this interest. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current or, due to a restructuring, the interest income is deemed to be collectible.

The Company currently holds loans in the portfolio that contain OID and expects to hold loans in the future that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. The Company recognizes OID for loans originally issued at a discount and recognizes the income over the life of the obligation based on an effective yield calculation. PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in a loan agreement, is added to the principal balance of a loan and recorded as income over the life of the obligation. Therefore, the actual collection of PIK income may be deferred until the time of debt principal repayment. To maintain the ability to be taxed as a RIC, the Company may need to pay out of both OID and PIK non-cash income amounts in the form of distributions, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash on either.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company held 179 investments in loans with OID. The Company accrued OID income of $93,473 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The unamortized balance of OID on debt investments as of March 31, 2020, totaled $1,797,901. As of December 31, 2019, the Company held 162 investments in loans with OID. The Company accrued OID income of $62,751 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The unamortized balance of OID investments as of December 31, 2019, totaled $1,733,632.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company held one investment which had a PIK interest component. The Company did not record any PIK interest income for three months ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2019, the Company held one investment which had a PIK interest component. The Company recorded $32,822 of PIK interest income for three months ended March 31, 2019.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company held $23,294,471 and $5,506,217 cash and cash equivalents, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned $28,670 and $50,720, respectively, of interest income related to cash, which is included in other interest income within the accompanying statement of operations.

Other Income Recognition

The Company generally records prepayment fees upon receipt of cash or as soon as the Company becomes aware of the prepayment.

Dividend income on equity investments is accrued to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected and if the Company has the option to collect such amounts in cash.

Prepayment fees and dividend income are both accrued in other income in the accompanying statements of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company accrued $14,740 and $17,810 of other income, respectively, related to amendment fees.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13") which introduces new fair value disclosure requirements as well as eliminates and modifies certain existing fair value disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 would be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Note 3. Investments

Fair Value

In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of the Company’s investments is determined to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, assuming an orderly transaction between willing market participants on the measurement date. This fair value definition focuses on exit price in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs. ASC 820 also establishes the three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of a financial instrument as of the measurement date as described in Note–2 – Significant Accounting Policies.

As of March 31, 2020, $282,476,467 of the Company’s investments were valued using unobservable inputs, and $43,388,747 were valued using observable inputs. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, $65,946,077 transferred into Level 3 due to a decrease in observable prices in the market and $20,650,498 out of Level 3 due to price transparency.

As of December 31, 2019, $249,452,590 of the Company’s investments were valued using unobservable inputs, and $81,422,321 were valued using observable inputs. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, $46,005,506 and $22,977,630 of investments transferred into and out of Level 3, respectively.

The following table presents the Company’s investments carried at fair value as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, by caption on the Company’s accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and by security type.

(3)

Inputs are weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range.

The table above does not include $4,608,380 of debt, equity and preferred shares which management values using other unobservable inputs, such as EBITDA and EBITDA multiples, as well as other qualitative information, including company specific information.

Fair value measurements can be sensitive to changes in one or more of the valuation inputs. Changes in market yields, discounts rates, leverage, EBITDA or EBITDA multiples (or revenue or revenue multiples), each in isolation, may change the fair value of certain of the Company’s investments. Generally, an increase or decrease in market yields, discount rates or leverage or a decrease in EBITDA or EBITDA multiples (or revenue or revenue multiples) may result in a corresponding decrease or increase, respectively, in the fair value of certain of the Company’s investments.

The following tables provide the changes in fair value, broken out by security type, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 for all investments for which the Company determines fair value using unobservable (Level 3) factors.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

The Company has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with the Adviser. In accordance with the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company pays the Adviser certain fees as compensation for its services, such fees consisting of a base management fee and an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”). The services the Adviser provides to the Company, subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s Board of Directors, include managing the day-to-day operations of, and providing investment services to, the Company. The Company also entered into a management fee waiver agreement with the Adviser (the “Waiver Agreement”), which the Company or the Adviser may terminate upon 60 days’ prior written notice.

Management Fee

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.0% of the Company’s average gross assets including cash and any temporary investments in cash-equivalents, including U.S. government securities and other high-quality investment grade debt investments that mature in 12 months or less from the date of investment, payable quarterly in arrears on a calendar quarter basis.

Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive the right to receive the base management fee to the extent necessary so that the base management fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement equals, and is calculated in the same manner as if, the base management fee otherwise payable by the Company were calculated at an annual rate equal to 0.65% (instead of an annual rate of 1.00%).

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded base management fees of $880,852 and waivers to the base management fees of $308,298, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded base management fees of $738,654 and waivers to the base management fees of $258,529, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

Incentive Fee

The Incentive Fee has two parts, as follows: one is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses accrued for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense on any credit facilities or outstanding debt and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee).

The Company determines pre-incentive fee net investment income in accordance with GAAP, including, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature, such as debt instruments with PIK interest, OID securities and accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, computed net of all realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a hurdle of 1.0% per quarter (4.0% annualized). The Company determines its average gross assets during each fiscal quarter and calculates the base management fee payable with respect to such amount at the end of each fiscal quarter. As a result, a portion of the Company’s net investment income is included in its gross assets for the period between the date on which such income is earned and the date on which such income is distributed. Therefore, the Company’s net investment income used to calculate part of the Incentive Fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s gross assets used to calculate the 1.0% annual base management fee. The Company pays its Adviser an Incentive Fee with respect to its pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

no amount is paid on the income-portion of the Incentive Fee in any calendar quarter in which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle of 1.0% (4.0% annualized);

100% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.1765 % in any calendar quarter (4.706% annualized). The Company refers to this portion of its pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.1765%) as the “catch-up” provision. The catch-up is meant to provide the Adviser with 15.0% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if net investment income exceeds 1.1765% in any calendar quarter (4.706% annualized); and

15.0% of the amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.1765% in any calendar quarter (4.706% annualized) is payable to the Adviser.

Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive its right to receive the Incentive Fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income to the extent necessary so that such Incentive Fee equals, and is calculated in the same manner as, the corresponding Incentive Fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, if such Incentive Fee (i) were calculated based upon the Adviser receiving 10.0% (instead of 15.0%) of the applicable pre-incentive fee net investment income and (ii) did not include any “catch-up” feature in favor of the Adviser.

The second part of the Incentive Fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 15.0% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from June 16, 2015, the effective date of our registration statement on Form 10 (file no. 000-55426), through the end of each 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 capital gain Incentive Fees with respect to each of the investments in the Company’s portfolio.

Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive the right to receive the Incentive Fee on capital gains to the extent necessary so that such portion of the Incentive Fee equals, and is calculated in the same manner as, the corresponding Incentive Fee on capital gains, if such portion of the Incentive Fee were calculated based upon the Adviser receiving 10.0% (instead of 15.0%).

In addition, pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive the right to receive both components of the Incentive Fee to the extent necessary so that it does not receive Incentive Fees which are attributable to income and gains of the Company that exceed an annualized rate of 12.0% in any calendar quarter.

The waivers from the Adviser will remain effective until terminated earlier by either party upon 60 days’ prior written notice.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded incentive fees related to net investment income of $661,359. Offsetting the incentive fees were waivers of the incentive fees of $563,778 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded incentive fees related to net investment income of $612,128. Offsetting the incentive fees were waivers of the incentive fess of $489,291 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

Administrative Fee

The Company has also entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with Audax Management Company, LLC (the “Administrator”) under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Company. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or oversees the performance of administrative services necessary for the operation of the Company, which include being responsible for the financial records which the Company is required to maintain and prepare reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Administrator assists in determining and publishing the Company’s net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of the Company’s tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Company’s stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. The Company reimburses the Administrator for its allocable portion of the costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator for overhead in performance by the Administrator of its duties under the Administration Agreement, including the cost of facilities, office equipment and the Company’s allocable portion of cost of compensation and related expenses of its Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and their respective staffs, as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator relating to any administrative or operating services provided by the Administrator to the Company. Such costs are reflected as an administrative fee in the accompanying statements of operations.

The Company has also entered into a fee waiver agreement with the Administrator, pursuant to which the Administrator may waive, in whole or in part, its entitlement to receive reimbursements from the Company.

The Company accrued administrative fees of $66,250, for each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

Note 6. Income Tax

The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, as well as elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, the Company generally is not subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it timely distributes as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to its stockholders. To qualify to be treated as a RIC, the Company is required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements, and to timely distribute dividends out of assets legally available for distributions to its stockholders of an amount generally equal to at least 90% of the sum of its net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any (i.e., “investment company taxable income,” determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid), for each taxable year. The amount to be paid out as distributions to the Company’s stockholders is determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and is based on management’s estimate of the fiscal year earnings. Based on that estimate, the Company intends to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes. Although the Company currently intends to distribute its net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term capital losses), if any, recognized in respect of each taxable year as dividends out of the Company’s assets legally available for distribution, the Company in the future may decide to retain for investment and be subject to entity-level income tax on such net capital gains. Additionally, depending on the level of taxable income earned in a taxable year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year distributions into the next taxable year and incur a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year distributions, the Company will accrue an excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as such excess taxable income is earned.

The Company had aggregate distributions declared and paid to its stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2019 of $17,084,202, or $0.52 per share. The tax character of the distributions declared and paid represented $16,941,968 from ordinary income and $142,234 from tax return of capital. The Company had aggregate distributions declared and paid to its stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2018 of $13,002,172, or $0.52 per share. The tax character of the distributions declared and paid represented $12,537,786 from ordinary income, $450,049 capital gains, and $14,337 from tax return of capital.

The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually at the end of the Company’s taxable year, based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full taxable year and distributions paid for the full taxable year. Therefore, a determination made on an interim basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of distributions for a full taxable year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will be reported to the Company’s stockholders subject to information reporting after the close of each calendar year on Form 1099-DIV.

As of December 31, 2019, the components of accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments and net investment losses and losses on a tax basis as detailed below differ from the amounts reflected in the Company’s statements of assets and liabilities by temporary book/tax differences primarily arising from amortization of organizational expenditures.

	As of December 31, 2019
Other temporary book/tax differences	$	(213,307	)
Net tax basis unrealized depreciation		(1,847,095	)
Accumulated net realized loss		(670,443	)
Components of tax distributable deficit at period end	$	(2,730,845	)

Certain losses incurred by the Company after October 31 of a taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Company’s next taxable year. The Company did not incur such losses after October 31 of the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2019.

Capital losses are generally eligible to be carried forward indefinitely, and retain their status as short-term or long-term in the manner originally incurred by the Company. The Company did not maintain any capital losses as of December 31, 2019. The Company has evaluated tax positions it has taken, expects to take, or that are otherwise relevant to the Company for purposes of determining whether any relevant tax positions would “more-likely-than-not” be sustained by the applicable tax authority in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” as modified by ASC Topic 946. The Company has analyzed such tax positions and has concluded that no unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded for uncertain tax positions for taxable years that may be open. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. The Company’s U.S. federal tax returns for fiscal years 2017, 2018 and 2019 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company records tax positions that are not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold as tax expenses as well as any applicable penalties or interest associated with such positions. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, no tax expense or any related interest or penalties were incurred.

COVID-19

The Company is continuing to assess what additional adverse financial and operational consequences may result from the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated economic turbulence. The potential impact to our results will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain the spread of COVID-19 or reduce its impact, all of which are beyond our control. As such, the Company cannot predict the extent to which its financial condition and results of operations will be affected, and the magnitude of such consequences remains uncertain as of the filing of this quarterly report.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, except where the context suggests otherwise, the terms “we,” us,” our” and the “Company” refer to Audax Credit BDC Inc. The information contained in this section should be read in the conjunction with the financial statements and notes to the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

This report and other statements contain forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and undue reliance should not be placed thereon. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our company, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “may,” “continue,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including:

our future operating results;

our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;

our ability to continue to effectively manage our business due to COVID-19 and similar pandemics;

the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies;

the ability of our Adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments;

changes in the general economy;

risk associated with possible disruptions in our operations or the economy generally;

the effect of investments that we expect to make;

our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;

actual and potential conflicts of interest with Adviser and its affiliates;

the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its effect on the industries in which we invest;

changes in political, economic or industry conditions, the interest rate environment or conditions affecting the financial and capital markets, which could result in changes to the value of our assets;

the adequacy of our financing sources and working capital;

the ability of our Adviser and its affiliates to attract and retain highly talented professionals;

our ability to qualify and maintain our qualification as a BDC and as a RIC; and

the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (file no. 814-01154) (the “Annual Report”).

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described or identified in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Report and our Annual Report. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this quarterly report. Moreover, we assume no duty and do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Audax Credit BDC Inc. is a Delaware corporation that was formed on January 29, 2015. We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, we have elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We intend to meet our investment objective by investing primarily in senior secured debt of privately owned U.S. middle- market companies. We intend to invest at least 80% of our net assets plus the amount of any borrowings in “credit instruments,” which we define as any fixed income instruments.

Although we have no present intention of doing so, we may decide to incur leverage. If we do incur leverage, however, we anticipate that it will be used in limited circumstances and on a short-term basis for purposes such as funding distributions. As a BDC, we are limited in our use of leverage under the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, a BDC generally is required to maintain asset coverage of 200% for senior securities representing indebtedness (such as borrowings from banks or other financial institutions) or stock (such as preferred stock). The Small Business Credit Availability Act, which was signed into law on March 23, 2018, provides that a BDC's required asset coverage under the 1940 Act may be reduced from 200% (i.e., $1 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity) to 150% (i.e., $2 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity). This reduction in asset coverage permits a BDC to double the amount of leverage it may utilize, subject to certain approval, timing and reporting requirements, including either stockholder approval or approval of a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the BDC and who have no financial interest in the arrangement. In addition, as a non-traded BDC, if we receive the relevant approval to increase our authorized leverage, we will be required to offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their shares of Common Stock over the next year following the calendar quarter in which the approval was obtained. In determining whether to use leverage, we will analyze the maturity, covenants and interest rate structure of the proposed borrowings, as well as the risks of such borrowings within the context of our investment outlook and the impact of leverage on our investment portfolio. The amount of any leverage that we will employ as a BDC will be subject to oversight by our Board of Directors.

We generate revenue in the form of interest on the debt securities that we hold in our portfolio companies. The senior debt we invest in generally has stated terms of three to ten years. Our senior debt investments generally bear interest at a floating rate. Interest on debt securities is generally payable quarterly or semiannually. In some cases, some of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or PIK interest. The principal amount of the debt securities and any accrued but unpaid interest generally will become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment and other fees in connection with transactions, although we do not expect to do so. OID as well as market discount and premium are accreted and amortized in determining our interest income. We record any prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as income.

COVID-19

The market disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have continued to adversely affect the business operations of some, if not all, of our portfolio companies and have affected, and may continue to affect, our operations and the operations of our Adviser. While we are closely monitoring this situation, we cannot predict the impact of COVID-19 on our future financial condition, with any level of certainty. However, we expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will have a material adverse impact on our future net asset value, net investment income, the fair value of our portfolio investments, and the results of operations and financial condition of our portfolio companies. For more information, see “Recent Developments—COVID-19 Developments” below.

PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

Portfolio Composition

The fair value of our investments, comprised of syndicated loans and equity, as of March 31, 2020, was approximately $325,865,214 and held in 172 portfolio companies as of March 31, 2020. The fair value of our investments, comprised of syndicated loans and equity, as of December 31, 2019, was approximately $330,874,911 and held in 164 portfolio companies as of December 31, 2019.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we invested in 28 new syndicated investments for a combined $25,224,701 and in existing investments for a combined $9,103,107.

As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2019, our entire portfolio consisted of non-controlled/non-affiliated investments.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Subsequent to March 31, 2020 and through June 18, 2020, we invested $206,025 at cost in two portfolio companies.

The issuance of the Common Stock is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof. The Company has not engaged in general solicitation or advertising with regard to the issuance and sale of the Common Stock and has not offered securities to the public in connection with such issuance and sale.

COVID-19 Developments

As the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve, we cannot reasonably predict its full impact on our business operations, including its duration in the United States and worldwide and the magnitude of the economic impact of the outbreak, including with respect to the travel restrictions, business closures and other quarantine measures imposed on service providers and other individuals by various local, state, and federal governmental authorities, as well as non-U.S. governmental authorities. As such, the extent to which COVID-19 and/or other health pandemics may continue to negatively affect our operating results and financial condition and the operating results and financial condition of our portfolio companies, or the duration of any potential business or supply-chain disruption for us, our Adviser and/or our portfolio companies, is uncertain.

We will continue to monitor the rapidly evolving developments relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and guidance from U.S. and international authorities, including federal, state and local public health officials and may take additional actions based on their recommendations. In these circumstances, there may be developments beyond our control requiring us to adjust our plan of operation. As such, given the dynamic nature of this situation, we cannot reasonably estimate the impacts of COVID-19 on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the future. However, we do expect that it will have a material adverse impact on our future net asset value, net investment income, the fair value of our portfolio investments, and the results of operations and financial condition of our portfolio companies, and that such adverse effects will continue for the duration of the pandemic and potentially for some time thereafter.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The net increase or decrease in net assets from operations may vary substantially from period to period as a result of various factors, including the recognition of realized gains and/or losses and net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation. This “Results of Operations” section should be read in conjunction with the “COVID-19 Developments” section above.

Revenue

Total investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 is presented in the table below.

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020		Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Total interest income from non-controlled/non-affiliated investments	$	5,202,708	$	4,870,004
Total other interest income		28,670		50,720
Total other income		14,740		17,810
Total investment income	$	5,246,118	$	4,938,534

Total investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased to $5,246,118 from $4,938,534 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and was driven by our interest income from our increasing investment balance. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, the size of our debt portfolio was $342,129,261 and $299,195,293 at amortized cost, respectively, with total debt principal amount outstanding of $343,927,162 and $300,491,292, respectively.

Expenses

Total expenses net of waivers for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020			Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

Base management fee^(a)	$	880,852		$	738,654
Incentive fee^(a)		661,359			612,128
Administrative fee^(a)		66,250			66,250
Directors' fees		52,500			52,500
Professional fees		97,942			154,681
Other expenses		48,385			104,601
Total expenses		1,807,288			1,728,814
Base management fee waivers^(a)		(308,298	)		(258,529	)
Incentive fee waivers^(a)		(563,778	)		(489,291	)
Total expenses, net of waivers	$	935,212		$	980,994

(a) Refer to Note 4-Related Party Transactions within the financial statements for a description of the relevant fees.

The increase in base management fees before waivers for the three months ended March 31, 2020 in comparison to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was driven by our increasing invested balance. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we accrued gross base management fees before waivers of $880,852 and $738,654, respectively. Offsetting those fees, we recognized base management fee waivers of $308,298 and $258,529 for three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we accrued incentive fees related to net investment income before waivers of $661,359 and $612,128, respectively. Offsetting those fees, we recognized incentive fee waivers of $563,778 and $489,291, respectively. Additionally, we accrued $66,250 of administrative fees for each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Refer to Note 4 — Related Party Transactions in the notes accompanying our financial statements for more information related to base management fees, incentive fees and waivers.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred professional fees of $97,942 and $154,681, respectively, related to audit fees, tax fees, and legal fees. The decrease in professional fees was driven by a decrease in legal expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. We also incurred expenses related to fees paid to our independent directors of $52,500 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Realized and Unrealized Gains and Losses

We recognized $(3,776) and $27,919 in net realized (losses) gains for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:

Type	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020			Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
First Lien Debt	$	(14,333,735	)	$	54,772
Second Lien Debt		(1,173,867	)		1,974
Equity and Preferred Shares		(29,931	)		(400,268	)
Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments	$	(15,537,533	)	$	(343,522	)

Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily due to the change in the results and financial position of the portfolio companies Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to a decrease in performance of our portfolio companies.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of any offering of shares of our common stock (“Shares”), from cash flows from interest and fees earned from our investments, and from principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. Our primary use of cash is investments in portfolio companies, payments of our expenses and cash distributions to our stockholders. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had cash of $23,294,471 and $5,506,217, respectively. This “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section should be read in conjunction with the “COVID-19 Developments” section above.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $2,788,254. The primary operating activities during this period were investments in portfolio companies. This was offset by repayments of bank loans and sales of investments. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $28,747,093. The primary operating activity during this period was investment in portfolio companies. This was partially offset by repayments of bank loans.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had twelve and eighteen investments with unfunded commitments of $3,147,697 and $3,878,962, respectively. We believe that, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had sufficient assets to adequately cover any obligations under our unfunded commitments.

The following table summarizes our total portfolio activity during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020			Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

Beginning investment portfolio	$	330,874,911		$	264,662,881

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by our financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $15,000,000 from issuances of 1,588,983 shares of Common Stock to our stockholders in connection with our capital calls during the period. Net cash provided by our financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $20,000,000 from issuances of 2,114,165 shares of Common Stock to our stockholders in connection with our capital calls during the period.

Equity Activity

The number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, were 36,698,229 and 35,109,246, respectively.

Distributions to Stockholders – Common Stock Distributions

We have elected to be treated as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, we generally are not subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on ordinary income or capital gains that we timely distribute as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to our stockholders. To qualify to be taxed as a RIC and thus avoid corporate-level income tax on the income that we distribute as dividends to our stockholders, we are required to distribute dividends to our stockholders each taxable year generally of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for any dividends paid. To avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings, we are required to distribute dividends to our stockholders in respect of each calendar year of an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of our ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for such calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of our capital gain net income, adjusted for certain ordinary losses, for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year and (iii) any income or capital gains recognized, but not distributed, in preceding calendar years and on which we incurred no federal income tax. We intend to make distributions to stockholders on an annual basis of substantially all of our net investment income. Although we intend to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment. In addition, the extent and timing of special dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors and will largely be driven by portfolio specific events and tax considerations.

We may fund our cash distributions from any sources of funds available, including offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and fee waivers from our Adviser. Our distributions may exceed our earnings, especially during the period before we have substantially invested the proceeds from an offering. As a result, a portion of the distributions may represent a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus the source of a distribution to our stockholders may be the original capital invested by the stockholder rather than our income or gains. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We did not declare or pay distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions is made annually at the end of our taxable year, based upon our taxable income for the full taxable year and distributions paid for the full taxable year. Therefore,estimates made on an interim basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will be reported to stockholders subject to information reporting after the close of each calendar year on Form 1099-DIV.

Related Party Fees

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded base management fees of $880,852 and $738,654, respectively. Offsetting these fees were waivers to the base management fees of $308,298 and $258,529, respectively, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded incentive fees of $661,359 and $612,128, respectively. Offsetting these waivers to the incentive fees of $563,778 and $489,291, respectively, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

For each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded administrative fees of $62,500, respectively, as set forth within the accompanying statements of operations.

Fees due to related parties as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 on our accompanying statements of assets and liabilities were as follows:

	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Net base management fee due to Adviser	$	572,554	$	569,600

Total Related Party Fees Due	$	736,385	$	754,386

(a) Expenses paid on behalf of the Company by the Adviser

Tender Offers

We do not currently intend to list shares of our Common Stock on any securities exchange, and we do not expect a public market for them to develop in the foreseeable future. Therefore, stockholders should not expect to be able to sell their shares of our Common Stock promptly or at a desired price. To provide our stockholders with limited liquidity, we may, in the absolute discretion of our Board of Directors, conduct an annual tender offer. Our tenders for the shares of Common Stock, if any, would be conducted on such terms as may be determined by our Board of Directors and in accordance with the requirements of applicable law, including Section 23(c) of the 1940 Act and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. We have not commenced any tender offers, and we do not currently intend to conduct any tender offers.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This discussion of our operations is based upon our financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our 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. In addition to the discussion below, we describe our critical accounting policies in the notes to our financial statements.

Valuation of Investments

We conduct the valuation of our investments, pursuant to which our net asset value is determined, at all times consistent with GAAP and the 1940 Act. Our Board of Directors, with the assistance of our Audit Committee,determines the fair value of our investments, for investments with a public market and for investments with no readily available public market, on at least a quarterly basis, in accordance with the terms of ASC 820. Our valuation procedures are set forth in more detail below.

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement is defined as follows:

Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. We do not adjust the quoted price for these instruments, even in situations where we hold a large position, and a sale could reasonably be expected to impact the quoted price.

Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments in this category include investments in privately held entities, non-investment grade residual interests in securitizations, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

Pursuant to the framework set forth above, we value securities traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the exchange closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. We may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of our investments from pricing services, brokers or dealers’ quotes, or counterparty marks in order to value liquid assets that are not traded in active markets.

Pricing services aggregate, evaluate and report pricing from a variety of sources including observed trades of identical or similar securities, broker or dealer quotes, model-based valuations and internal fundamental analysis and research. When doing so, we determine whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined adequate, we use the quote obtained.

Securities that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the our Board of Directors, does not represent fair value, are each valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available. These valuation techniques vary by investment but include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and discounted cash flow analyses. Inputs for these valuation techniques include relative credit information, observed market movement, industry sector information, and other market data, which may include benchmarking of comparable securities, issuer spreads, reported trades, and reference data, such as market research publications, when available. The process used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by the investment professionals of the Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment using a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs and updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs. Additionally, as a part of our valuation process, the Adviser may be assisted by one or more independent valuation firms engaged by us; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with our senior management and members of the Adviser’s valuation team; (iii) the Audit Committee reviews the assessments of the Adviser or independent valuation firm (to the extent applicable) and provides our Board of Directors with recommendations with respect to the fair value of the investments in our portfolio; and (iv) Our Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the our Audit Committee and determines the fair value of the investments in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Adviser, the independent valuation firm (to the extent applicable) and in accordance with our valuation policy.

Our Audit Committee’s recommendation of fair value is generally based on its assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

the portfolio company’s ability to make payments;

the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

prevailing interest rates for like securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

comparisons to publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available as of the measurement date, which in many cases may reflect up to a one quarter lag in information.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which a pricing source is not sufficient may include the following:

private placements and restricted securities that do not have an active trading market;

securities whose trading has been suspended or for which market quotes are no longer available;

debt securities that have recently gone into default and for which there is no current market;

securities whose prices are stale; and

securities affected by significant events.

Our Board of Directors is responsible for the determination, in good faith, of the fair value of our portfolio investments.

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our financial statements.

Refer to Note 3 — Investments in the notes to our accompanying financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report for additional information regarding fair value measurements and our application of ASC 820.

Revenue Recognition

We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt securities with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance, we generally will not accrue PIK interest for accounting purposes if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. We do not accrue as a receivable interest on loans and debt securities for accounting purposes if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. OID, market discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized using the effective interest method as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation

We measure net realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees and prepayment penalties. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when gains or losses are realized.

PIK Interest

We may have investments in our portfolio that contain a PIK interest provision. Any PIK interest will be added to the principal balance of such investments and is recorded as income if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is collectible. In order to maintain our status as a RIC, substantially all of this income must be included in the amounts paid out by us to stockholders in the form of dividends, even if we have not collected any cash.

U.S. Income Taxes

We have elected to be subject to tax as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally will not have to incur any corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that we distribute as dividends to our stockholders. To qualify and maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements as well as distribute dividends to our stockholders each taxable year of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to any distributions paid.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a taxable year, we may choose to retain taxable income in excess of current year distributions into the next taxable year. We would then incur a 4% excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income may exceed estimated current year distributions, we will accrue an excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned. We did not accrue any excise tax for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017.

Because U.S. federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified within capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent differences may also result from differences in classification in certain items, such as the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.

We evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reversed and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current fiscal year. All penalties and interest associated with any income taxes accrued are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, ongoing analyses of tax law, regulations and interpretations thereof. Our accounting policy on income taxes is critical because if we are unable to qualify, or once qualified, maintain our tax status as a RIC, we would be required to record a provision for corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes, as well as any related state or local taxes which may be significant to our financial results.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we, or the Adviser, may become party to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings related to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Neither we nor the Adviser is currently subject to any material legal proceedings.

Unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not reflected in our accompanying statements of assets and liabilities. Our unfunded commitments may be significant from time to time. These commitments are subject to the same underwriting and ongoing portfolio maintenance as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that we hold. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We use cash flow from normal and early principal repayments and proceeds from borrowings and offerings to fund these commitments. As of March 31, 2020, we had twelve investments with unfunded commitments of $3,147,697. As of December 31, 2019, we had eighteen investments with unfunded commitments of $3,878,962. We believe that, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had sufficient assets to adequately cover any obligations under our unfunded commitments.

ITEM

3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. During the period covered by our financial statements, many of the loans in our portfolio had floating interest rates, and we expect that many of our loans to portfolio companies in the future will also have floating interest rates based on LIBOR or an equivalent risk-free index rate. Interest rate fluctuations may have a substantial negative impact on our investments, the value of our Common Stock and our rate of return on invested capital. In addition, U.S. and global capital markets and credit markets have experienced a higher level of stress due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in an increase in the level of volatility across such markets and a general decline in value of the securities held by us. 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. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, all of our investments included variable rates with a minimum guaranteed rate, or floor, and bore interest at the minimum guaranteed rate.

In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a decrease in LIBOR and a general reduction of certain interest rates by the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks. A continued decline in interest rates, including LIBOR, could result in a reduction of our gross investment income.

Change in interest rates	Increase (decrease) in investment income
Down 300 basis points		(1,309,014	)
Down 200 basis points		(1,309,014	)
Down 100 basis points		(1,309,014	)
Up 100 basis points		3,415,433
Up 200 basis points		6,786,705
Up 300 basis points		10,187,418

Although we believe that this measure is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not reflect potential changes in the credit market, credit quality, size and composition of the assets on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and other business developments that could affect our net increase in net assets resulting from operations or net investment income. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from those shown above.

In addition, any investments we make that are denominated in a foreign currency will be subject to risks associated with changes in currency exchange rates. These risks include the possibility of significant fluctuations in the foreign currency markets, the imposition or modification of foreign exchange controls and potential illiquidity in the secondary market. These risks will vary depending upon the currency or currencies involved.

We may hedge against interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2020, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that there was a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting specifically related to valuations in the context of an unprecedented and severe market dislocation, as described below. Our management has designed additional procedures, including via the use of independent valuation experts where applicable, to help us better achieve our disclosure objectives in future periods. We also note that, in the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020. Based on the assessment, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective controls over the application of fair value accounting with respect to the validation of fair value methodologies for certain of the Company’s investments. Specifically, the controls were not sufficiently designed to ensure the appropriateness of the fair value determinations reached for certain Level 3 debt holdings in the context of the current period of extreme market dislocation and volatility caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective in providing reasonable assurance that material valuation information about us was recorded and timely communicated to our management.

As described below, this deficiency in internal control over financial reporting did not result in a misstatement due to the proactive steps taken by our management. However, in the absence of such steps, it could have resulted in a misstatement to the valuations of one or more of our investments. In turn, such a misstatement could have resulted in a material misstatement to our interim financial statements as of March 31, 2020 that would not have been prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constituted a “material weakness” (which is generally defined as “a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not have been prevented or detected on a timely basis”).

This material weakness was brought to the attention of management prior to the issuance of any financial statements covering the period during which the material weakness existed (i.e., the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Based on a number of factors, including the timely discovery and expected short duration of the material weakness as being directly tied to the current period of extreme market dislocation and volatility caused by COVID-19, and our performance of the remedial procedures performed, our management has concluded that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. Further, based upon our investigation and analysis of the identified weakness, our management has concluded that such material weakness did not affect any financial statements issued for any period prior to the reporting period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Remediation Plan

Management plans to implement steps to remediate the material weakness described above related to our valuation process. For example, during periods determined by management, such as a period of severe market dislocation and volatility, management would determine whether to utilize one or more independent valuation experts as part of its valuation process for Level 3 debt holdings. Management also plans to undertake additional review procedures, which may include designating a member of the Valuation Committee to monitor and report to the Valuation Committee to ensure that, particularly during any period of market dislocation and volatility, fair values for all Level 3 debt holdings are validated through one or more other valuation techniques or processes that are acceptable under ASC 820 (which may include the use of independent valuation experts).

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as specified above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II–OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM

1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceeding, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.

From time to time, we, our Adviser or Administrator may be a 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. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings, lawsuits and claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Our businesses are also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us.

ITEM

1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risks discussed below, important risk factors that could cause results or events to differ from current expectations are described in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on March 17, 2020.

Legislation passed in 2018 allows us to incur additional leverage and would require us to offer liquidity to our stockholders.

Under the 1940 Act, a BDC generally is required to maintain asset coverage of 200% for senior securities representing indebtedness (such as borrowings from banks or other financial institutions) or stock (such as preferred stock). The Small Business Credit Availability Act, which was signed into law on March 23, 2018, provides that a BDC’s required asset coverage under the 1940 Act may be reduced from 200% (i.e., $1 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity) to 150% (i.e., $2 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity). This reduction in asset coverage permits a BDC to double the amount of leverage it may utilize, subject to certain approval, timing and reporting requirements, including either stockholder approval or approval of a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the BDC and who have no financial interest in the arrangement. As a result, if we receive the relevant approval and we comply with the applicable disclosure requirements, we would be able to incur additional leverage, which may increase the risk of investing in us. In addition, since our base management fee is payable based upon our average adjusted gross assets, which includes any borrowings for investment purposes, our base management fee expenses may increase if we incur additional leverage.

We have not commenced any tender offers, and we do not currently intend to conduct any tender offers. As a non-traded BDC, however, if we receive the relevant approval to increase our authorized leverage, we will be required to offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their Shares over the next year following the calendar quarter in which the approval was obtained. The timing and method for such offers has not been determined at this time.

Global capital markets could enter a period of severe disruption and instability due to future recessions, political instability, geopolitical turmoil and foreign hostilities, disease pandemics and other serious health events. These market disruptions have historically had and could again have a materially adverse effect on debt and equity capital markets in the United States, which could have a materially adverse impact on our business and financial condition.

The U.S. capital markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruption following the global outbreak of COVID-19. Disruptions in the capital markets have increased the spread between the yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets and valuation impacts. Such disruptions are adversely affecting our business, and future market disruptions and/or illiquidity could continue to impact us negatively. These events have limited, and could continue to limit, our investment opportunities, may limit our ability to grow and could negatively impact our operating results and the fair values of our investments.

5. OTHER INFORMATION

Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting local, state and federal government responses, the Company availed itself of an extension to file its Quarterly Report originally due on May 15, 2020 by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC. In taking such action, the Company relied on the order issued by the SEC on March 25, 2020 (which extended and superseded a prior order issued on March 4, 2020), pursuant to Section 36 of the Exchange Act (Release No. 34-88465) (the “COVID-19 Filing Extension Order”), regarding exemptions granted to certain public companies. The COVID-19 Filing Extension Order allows a registrant up to an additional 45 days after the original due date to file certain required reports with the SEC, if the registrant’s ability to file such reports timely was affected due to COVID-19.

Due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the spread of COVID-19 throughout the United States, and the significant market disruptions that have resulted from such spread, the Company undertook additional review of the fair value of its portfolio with the assistance of third-party independent valuation firms. Given the time taken for this additional review of the Company’s portfolio investments, the Company’s preparation of the Quarterly Report originally due on May 15, 2020 was disrupted. As such, the Company relied on the COVID-19 Filing Extension Order and made use of the 45-day grace period provided by the COVID-19 Filing Extension Order to delay the filing of that Quarterly Report.

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

Audax Credit BDC Inc.

101 Huntington Avenue

Boston, Massachusetts 02199

Ladies and Gentlemen:

1. Subscription.

(a) The undersigned (the “Investor”) subscribes for and agrees to contribute to Audax Credit BDC Inc. or any successor thereto (the “Company”) the aggregate capital commitment in the amount set forth on the signature page hereto (“Capital Commitment”), and such Investor shall receive shares of common stock of the Company at the time of each drawdown under the Capital Commitment. The Investor understands that the Company has elected to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that this subscription (i) is irrevocable on the part of the Investor, (ii) is conditioned upon acceptance by or on behalf of the Company and (iii) may be accepted or rejected in whole or in part by the Company in its sole discretion at any time. The Investor agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Company’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time (the “Memorandum”), the Company’s certificate of incorporation, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (as amended from time to time, the “Charter”), the Company’s bylaws, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix B (as amended from time to time, the “Bylaws”), the Investment Advisory Agreement by and between Audax Management Company (NY), LLC, our investment adviser (the “Adviser”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix C (as amended from time to time, the “Advisory Agreement”), the Administration Agreement by and between the Company and Audax Management Company, LLC, our administrator (the “Administrator”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix D (as amended from time to time, the “Administration Agreement” and, together with the Memorandum, the Charter, the Bylaws and the Advisory Agreement, collectively the “Operative Documents”), together with this subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”). Capitalized terms not defined herein are used as defined in the Memorandum.

The Company has filed a registration statement on Form 10 (the “Form 10 Registration Statement”) which registered its common stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Form 10 Registration Statement is not the offering document pursuant to which the Company is conducting this offering of securities and may not include all information regarding the Company contained in the Memorandum. Accordingly, Investors should rely exclusively on information contained in the Memorandum in making their investment decisions.

(b) Payment in cleared funds for Shares must be received three business days prior to the Closing Date (as defined below). Subject to any legal or regulatory restrictions before the Closing Date, the Investor’s payment (the “Payment”) shall be held by the Company in a non-interest bearing account. If the subscription is rejected, the Payment shall be returned promptly to the Investor, and this Subscription Agreement shall have no force or effect.

2. Closings.

(a) The closing of the Offering (as defined in the Memorandum) will take place at the offices of Dechert LLP at 100 Oliver St., 40^th Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, on the date the Company accepts the Subscription Agreement unless otherwise agreed to by the parties (such date being the “Closing Date”). The Company may accept (in whole or in part) and countersign this Subscription Agreement at any time prior to or on the Closing Date.

(b) The Investor agrees to provide any information reasonably requested by the Company to verify the accuracy of the representations contained herein, including, without limitation, the Investor Questionnaire. Upon acceptance of this Subscription Agreement (in whole or in part), the Company shall deliver to the Investor or its representative, a countersigned copy of this Subscription Agreement and other documents and instruments necessary to reflect the Capital Commitment, including any documents and instruments to be delivered pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

3. Drawdowns.

(a) Subject to Section 3(d), the Investor agrees to purchase Shares for an aggregate purchase price equal to its Capital Commitment, payable at such times and in such amounts as required by the Company. The Company shall deliver a notice (the “Drawdown Notice”) to the Investor at least ten calendar days prior to the Drawdown (each, a “Drawdown Date”), setting forth the amount, in U.S. dollars, of the aggregate purchase price (the “Drawdown Purchase Price”) to be paid by the Investor to purchase Shares on such Drawdown Date. Each purchase of Shares pursuant to a Drawdown Notice shall be made at a per Share price equal to the then-current net asset value per Share.

(b) Each Drawdown Purchase Price shall be payable, in U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds as set forth in wire transfer instructions included in the Drawdown Notice. In addition to the wire transfer instructions, each Drawdown Notice shall set forth (i) the Drawdown Date, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Drawdown and (iii) the Investor’s share of the Drawdown.

(c) Concurrent with any payment of all or a portion of the Drawdown Purchase Price, the Company shall issue to the Investor a number of Shares equal to the amount of the Drawdown Purchase Price funded by the Investor on the applicable Drawdown Date divided by the most recently determined net asset value per Share as of such Drawdown Date.

(d) Upon termination of the period (the “Commitment Period”) beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the completion of an initial public offering of the Shares or the listing of the Shares on a national securities exchange, the Investor shall be released from any further obligation to fund any portion of its Capital Commitment for which it has not received a Drawdown Notice prior to the termination of the Commitment Period.

(e) The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Company intends to allocate Drawdowns on each Drawdown Date to all Investors with an undrawn Capital Commitment pro rata in proportion to the then undrawn Capital Commitments of all Investors.

(f) The Investor acknowledges that it may have capital commitments pursuant to other agreements with the Company and that the Capital Commitment pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall in no way limit its obligations under such other agreements.

4. Dividend Reinvestment Program. As described more fully in the Memorandum, the Company generally intends to distribute, out of assets legally available for distribution, substantially all of its available earnings, as determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion. The Company intends to reinvest all cash distributions declared by the Board of Directors on behalf of Investors who do not elect to receive their dividends in cash, crediting to each such Investor a number of Shares equal to the quotient determined by dividing the cash value of the distribution payable to such Investor by the net asset value per Share as last determined by the Board of Directors. The Investor may elect to receive any or all such distributions in cash by notifying the Administrator, in writing no later than 10 days prior to the record date for the first distribution that the Investor wishes to receive distributions in cash.

5. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. To induce the Company to accept this subscription, the Investor represents and warrants as follows:

(a) This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Investor and, upon due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, shall constitute the valid and legally binding agreement of the Investor enforceable in accordance with its terms against the Investor, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies, as from time to time in effect, and (ii) application of equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(b) (i) If the Investor is not a natural person, (A) that all of the equity owners of the Investor are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act, (B) the Investor has the power and authority to enter into this Subscription Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Shares, and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and (C) the person signing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of the Investor has been duly authorized to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Shares.

(ii) If the Investor is a natural person, the Investor has all requisite legal capacity to acquire and hold the Shares and to execute, deliver and comply with the terms of each of the documents required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Shares. The execution and delivery by the Investor of, and compliance by the Investor with, this Subscription Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with this subscription for Shares does not violate, represent a breach of, or constitute a default under, any instruments governing the Investor, any law, regulation or order, or any agreement to which the Investor is a party or by which the Investor is bound. This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed by the Investor and constitutes a valid and legally binding agreement of the Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

(c) The Shares to be acquired hereunder are being acquired by the Investor for the Investor’s own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or distribution.

(d) The Investor understands that the Company has filed an election to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and has filed an election to be treated as a regulated investment company within the meaning of Section 851 of the Code, for U.S. federal income tax purposes; pursuant to those elections, the Investor shall be required to furnish certain information to the Company as required under Treasury Regulations § 1.852-6(a) and other regulations. If the Investor is unable or refuses to provide such information directly to the Company, the Investor understands that it shall be required to include additional information on its income tax return as provided in Treasury Regulations § 1.852-7.

(e) (i) The Investor understands that the offering and sale of the Shares are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), applicable U.S. state securities laws and the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions by virtue of the private placement exemption from registration pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act, exemptions under applicable U.S. state securities laws and exemptions under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdictions.

(ii) The Investor understands that a legend will be placed on any certificate or certificates evidencing the Shares stating that they have not been registered under the Securities Act and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transfers and sales thereof.

(iii) The Investor understands that the offering and sale of the Shares in non-U.S. jurisdictions may be subject to additional restrictions and limitations and represents and warrants that it is acquiring its Shares in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and other legal requirements applicable to the Investor including, without limitation, the legal requirements of jurisdictions in which the Investor is resident and in which such acquisition is being consummated.

(f) The Investor has been furnished and has carefully read this Subscription Agreement, each Operative Document, in each case as amended, restated and/or supplemented through the Closing Date, and a current copy of the Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures of the Adviser. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares, is able to bear the risks of an investment in the Shares and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, a purchase of Shares, including the matters set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Memorandum.

(g) To the satisfaction of the Investor, the Investor has been furnished any materials the Investor has requested relating to the Company, the offering of Shares or any statement made in the Memorandum, and the Investor has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of any representations or information set forth in the Memorandum.

(h) Other than as set forth in this Subscription Agreement, the Operative Documents and any separate agreement in writing with the Company executed in conjunction with the Investor’s subscription for Shares, the Investor is not relying upon any other information, representation or warranty by the Company, its Adviser or any affiliate of the foregoing or any agent of them, written or otherwise, in determining to invest in the Company and the Investor understands that the Memorandum is not intended to convey tax or legal advice. The Investor has consulted, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Investor, with the Investor’s own advisers as to the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and related matters concerning an investment in Shares and on that basis understands the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and related consequences of an investment in Shares, and believes that an investment in the Shares is suitable and appropriate for the Investor.

(vii) the Plan’s acquisition, holding and disposition of interests in the Company do not and will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or violation of Similar Law;

(viii) the Fiduciary expressly acknowledges that the Board of Directors has the authority to require the redemption, withdrawal or other cancellation of any Shares if the Board of Directors determines that the continued holding of such Shares, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, could result in the Company being subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code;

(ix) the Fiduciary has been informed about the fee structure of the Company, including, but not limited to, any performance fee or allocation, and has concluded that such fees are reasonable and the investment in the Company otherwise constitutes a reasonable contract or arrangement; and

(x) the Fiduciary acknowledges and agrees that neither the Adviser nor any of its employees, representatives or affiliates will be a fiduciary with respect to the Plan as a result of the Plan’s investment in the Company, pursuant to the provisions of ERISA, the Code or any applicable Similar Laws, or otherwise.

If applicable, the Investor has identified its status as a Benefit Plan Investor (as defined below) to the Company in its completed Investor Questionnaire. If the Investor has identified to the Company in its completed Investor Questionnaire that it is not currently a Benefit Plan Investor, but becomes a Benefit Plan Investor, without limiting the remedies available in the event of a breach, the Investor shall forthwith disclose to the Adviser promptly in writing such fact and also the percentage of such Investor’s equity interests held by Benefit Plan Investors. For these purposes, a “Benefit Plan Investor” is (i) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in and subject to Part 4 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” as defined in and subject to Section 4975 of the Code, and (iii) any entity whose underlying assets are deemed for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code to include “plan assets” by reason of such plan’s investment in the entity or otherwise. Without limiting the remedies available in the event of a breach, the Investor agrees to notify the Adviser promptly in writing if there is any change in the percentage of the Investor’s assets that are treated as “plan assets” for purposes of Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations promulgated thereunder as set forth in the Investor Questionnaire to this Subscription Agreement.

(k) If the Investor is an insurance company and is investing the assets of its general account (or the assets of a wholly owned subsidiary of its general account) in the Company, it has identified in the Investor Questionnaire whether the assets underlying the general account constitute “plan assets” under Section 401(c) of ERISA. Without limiting the remedies available in the event of a breach, the Investor agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing if there is a change in the percentage of the general account’s assets that constitute plan assets for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and shall disclose such new percentage ownership.

(l) The Investor was offered the Shares through private negotiations, not through any general solicitation or general advertising.

(m) Neither the Investor, nor any of its affiliates or beneficial owners, (i) appears on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”), the list of Foreign Sanctions Evaders maintained by OFAC, or any other lists of restricted parties maintained by the U.S. Government, nor are they otherwise a party with which any entity is prohibited to deal under the laws of the United States, or (ii) is a Person identified as a terrorist organization on any other relevant lists maintained by governmental authorities. The Investor further represents and warrants that the monies used to fund the investment in the Shares are not derived from, invested for the benefit of, or related in any way to, and that no monies or dividends received as a result of the investment in the Shares will be provided to or for the benefit of, the governments of, or persons within, any country (A) under a U.S. embargo enforced by OFAC, (B) that has been designated as a “non-cooperative country or territory” by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering or (C) that has been designated by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury as a “primary money laundering concern.” The Investor further represents and warrants that the Investor: (1) has conducted thorough due diligence with respect to all of its beneficial owners, (2) has established the identities of all beneficial owners and the source of each of the beneficial owner’s funds and (3) will retain evidence of any such identities, any such source of funds and any such due diligence. The Investor further represents and warrants that the Investor does not know or have any reason to suspect that (x) the monies used to fund the Investor’s investment in the Shares have been or will be derived from or related to any illegal activities, including money laundering activities, and (y) the proceeds from the Investor’s investment in the Shares will be used to finance any illegal activities. The representations with respect to the Investor’s policies, procedures and records in that certain letter from the Adviser to the Company’s Custodian (a copy of which was provided to the Investor) are accurate.

(n) None of the information concerning the Investor nor any statement, certification, representation or warranty made by the Investor in this Subscription Agreement or in any document required to be provided under this Subscription Agreement (including the Investor Questionnaire and any forms W-9 or W-8 (W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8EXP)), as applicable, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading.

(o) The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor do not and will not result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, note or other evidence of indebtedness, or any lease or other agreement, or any license, permit, franchise or certificate, to which the Investor is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its properties are subject, or require any authorization or approval under or pursuant to any of the foregoing, violate the organizational documents of the Investor, or violate in any material respect any statute, regulation, law, order, writ, injunction or decree to which the Investor is subject.

(ii) The Investor acknowledges and understands that there are other substantial restrictions on the transferability of Shares under this Subscription Document, the Operative Documents and under applicable law including the fact that (A) there is no established market for the Shares and it is possible that no public market for the Shares will develop; (B) the Shares are not currently, and Investors have no rights to require that the Shares be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of the various states or any non-U.S. jurisdiction and therefore cannot be Transferred unless subsequently registered or unless an exemption from such registration is available; and (C) the Investor may have to hold the Shares herein subscribed for and bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely, and it may not be possible for the Investor to liquidate its investment in the Company.

7. Disclosure of Investor’s Information.

(c) The Investor understands and agrees that the Company may not accept any amounts from a prospective Investor if such prospective Investor cannot make the representations set forth above. If an existing Investor cannot make such representations, the Company may require the withdrawal of such Investor from the Company.

(d) The Investor acknowledges and agrees that, in order to comply with the provisions of the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) and avoid the imposition of U.S. federal withholding tax, the Company and Administrator may from time to time require further information and/or documentation from the Investor and, if and to the extent required under FATCA, the Investor’s direct and indirect beneficial owners (if any), relating to or establishing such person’s identity, residence (or jurisdiction of formation) and income tax status, and may provide or disclose such information and documentation to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The Investor agrees that it shall provide such information and documentation concerning itself and its beneficial owners, if any, as and when requested by the Company or the Administrator sufficient for the Company to comply with its obligations under FATCA.

The Investor shall have no claim against the Company, the Administrator, the Adviser or any of their respective affiliates for any form of damages or liability as a result of any of the aforementioned actions.

In connection therewith, each Investor hereby agrees to cooperate with the Company and provide financial information and other documentation reasonably and customarily required to obtain such facilities.

10. Dividend Reinvestment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in Section 4, in the event that the Investor has not otherwise elected to receive its dividends in cash and the reinvestment of any dividend (or any portion thereof) on behalf of the Investor would cause the Investor to hold in aggregate more than three percent (3%) of the outstanding Shares, the Investor shall be deemed to have elected to receive such dividend (or any portion thereof) in cash (but only to the extent necessary to avoid the occurrence of the foregoing consequence).

11. Further Advice and Assurances.
