On January 26, 2021, Jonathan Lamm notified Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. (the “Company) of his intention to resign as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company to pursue a new professional opportunity. Effective March 1, 2021, Mr. Lamm will cease serving as the Company’s principal financial officer, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. Mr. Lamm’s resignation is not the result of any disagreement with the Company. To assist in an orderly transition, Mr. Lamm will continue to serve in his current role during the transition period.

The Company expects to appoint Joseph DiMaria, age 52, as the Interim Chief Financial Officer and Interim Treasurer of the Company, effective March 1, 2021, subject to approval by the board of directors of the Company. Mr. DiMaria would also succeed Mr. Lamm as the Company’s principal financial officer during his term as Interim Chief Financial Officer. Mr. DiMaria would also be appointed as Interim Chief Financial Officer, Interim Treasurer and principal financial officer of Goldman Sachs Private Middle Market Credit LLC and Goldman Sachs Private Middle Market Credit II LLC.

Mr. DiMaria serves as a Managing Director of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P., the Company’s investment adviser (the “Investment Adviser”) and has served in a management capacity in the Goldman Sachs Asset Management Division’s Fund Controllers team since 2015. He currently serves as the principal financial officer, treasurer and principal accounting officer of the Goldman Sachs Trust, Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust, Goldman Sachs Trust II, Goldman Sachs ETF Trust, Goldman Sachs MLP and Energy Renaissance Fund and Goldman Sachs Real Estate Diversified Income Fund.

Mr. DiMaria has no family relationships with any current director, executive officer, or person nominated to become a director or executive officer, of the Company, and there are no transactions or proposed transactions, to which the Company is a party, or intended to be a party, in which Mr. DiMaria has, or will have, a material interest subject to disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
