The 52,236 shares acquired were purchased in the open market for the purpose of satisfying obligations related to its Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU") grants. The SCP Plan is controlled by Solar Capital Partners, LLC ("Solar Capital Partners"). Mr. Gross and Bruce J. Spohler may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own a portion of the shares held by the SCP Plan by virtue of their collective ownership interest in Solar Capital Partners.

Mr. Gross disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the Issuer's securities directly held by the SCP Plan, Solar Capital I or Solar Capital II, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Gross is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or any other purpose.
( 4)  Grants of RSUs with respect to 72,135.2582 shares held by the SCP Plan, which is controlled by Solar Capital Partners, to certain of its employees pursuant to Restricted Stock Unit Agreements, dated March 4, 2015.

Gross and Spohler.
( 5)  Pursuant to the SEC staff no-action letter to Babson Capital Management LLC (pub. avail.
