1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

BlackRock Private Credit Fund (“BDEBT” or the “Fund”), is a Delaware statutory trust formed on December 23, 2021. The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). The Fund is externally managed by BlackRock Capital Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Investment Adviser”). BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser” and, together with the Investment Adviser, the “Advisers”) serves as the Fund’s sub-adviser. The Advisers are subsidiaries of BlackRock, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, including but not limited to the Advisers, “BlackRock”). BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. serves as the administrator of the Fund (the “Administrator”), and is affiliated with the Advisers.

The Fund has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually thereafter, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a RIC, the Fund will not be taxed on its income to the extent that it distributes such income each year and satisfies other applicable income tax requirements.

The Fund’s investment objective is to target high risk-adjusted returns produced primarily from current income generated by investing primarily in directly originated, senior secured corporate debt instruments. The Fund intends to meet its investment strategy by focusing primarily on originating and making loans to, and making debt and equity investments in, U.S. middle market companies, although, the Fund may make investments in portfolio companies that are domiciled outside of the United States, including emerging markets. The Fund invests in senior secured or unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, equity and equity-related securities which includes common and preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock, and warrants. BDEBT defines “middle market companies” to generally mean companies with earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, or “EBITDA”, between $10 million and $250 million annually and/or annual revenue of $50 million to $2.5 billion at the time of investment. The Fund may on occasion invest in smaller or larger companies if an attractive opportunity presents itself.
