SIERRA INCOME CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021

(unaudited)

Note 1. Organization

Sierra Income Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on June 13, 2011 and formally commenced operations on April 17, 2012. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end 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"). The Company is externally managed by SIC Advisors LLC (“SIC Advisors”), an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). SIC Advisors is a wholly owned subsidiary of Medley LLC, which is controlled by Medley Management Inc., ~~a publicly traded~~an asset management firm ~~(NYSE: MDLY)~~("MDLY"), which in turn is controlled by Medley Group LLC, an entity wholly-owned by the senior professionals of Medley LLC. The term “Medley” refers to the collective activities of Medley Capital LLC, Medley LLC, ~~Medley Management Inc. ("MDLY"),~~MDLY, Medley Group LLC, SIC Advisors, associated investment funds and their respective affiliates. The Company has elected, and intends to qualify annually, to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

On April 17, 2012, the Company successfully reached its minimum escrow requirement and officially commenced operations by issuing 1,108,033 shares of common stock to SIC Advisors for gross proceeds of $10,000,000. On July 2, 2018, the Company’s board of directors determined to terminate the Company’s offering effective as of July 31, 2018. Through July 31, 2018, the Company sold a total of 108,727,717 shares of common stock, which includes shares issued as part of the distribution reinvestment plan (see Note 12) and the shares sold to SIC Advisors, for total gross proceeds of $1.0 billion. The proceeds from the issuance of common stock are presented in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and are presented net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees.

On June 18, 2014, the Company formed Alpine Funding LLC ("Alpine"), a wholly-owned financing subsidiary.

On July 2, 2020, the Company purchased STRF Holdings LLC ("STRF"), a wholly-owned subsidiary.

The Company has formed and expects to continue to form certain taxable subsidiaries (the “Taxable Subsidiaries”), which are taxed as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Taxable Subsidiaries allow the Company to hold equity securities of portfolio companies organized as pass-through entities while continuing to satisfy the requirements applicable to a RIC under the Code.

The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income, and to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. The Company intends to meet its investment objective by investing primarily in the debt of privately owned U.S. companies with a focus on senior secured debt, second lien debt and, to a lesser extent, subordinated debt. The Company will originate transactions sourced through SIC Advisors’ direct origination network, and also expects to acquire debt securities through the secondary market. The Company may make equity investments in companies that it believes will generate appropriate risk adjusted returns, although it does not expect such investments to be a substantial portion of the portfolio.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company follows the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 - Financial Services, Investment Companies ("ASC 946"). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and includes the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Alpine and the Taxable Subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All references made to the "Company," "we," and "us" herein include Sierra Income Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, except as stated otherwise. Additionally, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Therefore, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on March 19, 2021. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers cash equivalents to be highly liquid investments or investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents include deposits in money market mutual funds. The Company deposits its cash in major U.S. financial institutions which, at times, may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Deferred Financing Costs

Financing costs, incurred in connection with the Company’s credit facilities (see Note 5), are deferred and amortized over the life of each corresponding facility.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contractual agreements that provide general indemnifications against losses, costs, claims and liabilities arising from the performance of individual obligations under such agreements. The Company has had no claims or payments pursuant to such agreements. The Company’s individual maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on management’s experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is recorded on an accrual basis. The Company records amortized or accreted discounts or premiums as interest income using the effective interest method. Dividend income, which represents dividends from equity investments and distributions from subsidiaries, if any, is recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that the Company expects to collect such amount.

Fee income associated with investments in portfolio companies is recognized as income in the period that the Company becomes entitled to such fees. Other fees related to loan administration requirements are capitalized as deferred revenue and recorded into income over the respective period.

Prepayment penalties received by the Company for debt instruments paid back to the Company prior to the maturity date are recorded as income upon receipt.

The Company holds debt investments that contain a payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest provision. PIK interest, which represents contractually deferred interest added to the investment balance that is generally due at maturity, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected. PIK interest is not accrued if the Company does not expect the issuer to be able to pay all principal and interest when due. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company earned PIK interest of $~~530,630~~640,280. and $1,170,910, respectively. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company earned PIK interest of ~~$651,808.~~$588,472 and $1,240,280, respectively.

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company did not recognize any realized gains or losses related to certain non-cash restructuring transactions. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company did not recognize any realized gains or losses related to certain non-cash restructuring transactions. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Management reviews all loans that become 90 days or more past due on principal and interest or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected for possible placement on management's designation of non-accrual status. Accrued interest is generally reserved when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Loans on non-accrual status are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current, although the Company may make exceptions to this general rule if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, certain investments in ~~twelve~~eleven portfolio companies were on non-accrual status with a combined cost of $~~83,305,613~~81,560,703, or 11.8% of the cost of the Company's portfolio, and a combined fair value of $~~30,247,740~~31,438,283, or ~~4.8%~~5.0% of the fair value of the Company's portfolio. As of December 31, 2020, certain investments in twelve portfolio companies were on non-accrual status with a combined cost of $83,537,754, or 11.9% of the cost of the Company's portfolio, and a combined fair value of $30,649,219, or 5.1% of the fair value of the Company's portfolio.

Interest income from investments in the “equity” class of a collateralized loan obligation ("CLO") security (typically subordinated notes) is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing assumed cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. The Company monitors the expected cash flows from these investments, including the expected residual payments, and the effective yield is determined and updated periodically. Any difference between the cash distribution received and the amount calculated pursuant to the effective interest method is recorded as an adjustment to the cost basis of such investments.

Investment Classification

The Company classifies its investments in accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, the Company would be deemed to “control” a portfolio company if it owns more than 25% of its outstanding voting securities and/or had the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company. The Company refers to such investments in portfolio companies that it “controls” as “Controlled Investments.” Under the 1940 Act, the Company would be deemed to be an “Affiliated Person” of a portfolio company if it owns at least 5%, but no more than 25%, of the portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities or if it is under common control with such portfolio company. The Company refers to such investments in Affiliated Persons as “Affiliated Investments.”

Valuation of Investments

The Company applies fair value accounting to all of its financial instruments in accordance with the 1940 Act and ASC Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company has categorized its financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as discussed in Note 4. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant who holds the financial instrument rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore, when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or multiple broker-dealers or market makers. The Company weighs the use of third-party broker quotations, if any, in determining fair value based on management's understanding of the level of actual transactions used by the broker to develop the quote and whether the quote was an indicative price or binding offer. However, debt investments with remaining maturities within 60 days that are not credit impaired are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates fair value. Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the Company’s board of directors based upon input from management and third party valuation firms. Because these investments are illiquid and there may not be any directly comparable companies whose financial instruments have observable market values, these loans are valued using a fundamental valuation methodology, consistent with traditional asset pricing standards, that is objective and consistently applied across all loans and through time.

Investments in investment companies are valued at fair value. Fair values are generally determined utilizing the net asset value ("NAV") supplied by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company, which is net of management and incentive fees or allocations charged by the investment company and is in accordance with the "practical expedient", as defined by ASC 820. NAVs received by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company are based on the fair value of the investment company's underlying investments in accordance with policies established by management of each investment company, as described in each of their financial statements and offering memorandum.

The methodologies utilized by the Company in estimating the fair value of its investments categorized as Level 3 generally fall into the following two categories:

	•	The “Market Approach” uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities, or a group of assets and liabilities, such as a business.
	•	The “Income Approach” converts future amounts (for example, cash flows or income and expenses) to a single current (that is, discounted) amount. When the Income Approach is used, the fair value measurement reflects current market expectations about those future amounts.

The Company uses third-party valuation firms to assist the board of directors in the valuation of its portfolio investments. The valuation reports generated by the third-party valuation firms consider the evaluation of financing and sale transactions with third parties, expected cash flows and market based information, including comparable transactions, performance multiples, and movement in yields of debt instruments, among other factors. Based on market data obtained from the third-party valuation firms, the Company uses a combined market yield analysis and an enterprise model of valuation. In applying the market yield analysis, the value of the Company’s loans is determined based upon inputs such as the coupon rate, current market yield, interest rate spreads of similar securities, the stated value of the loan, and the length to maturity. In applying the enterprise model, the Company uses a waterfall analysis which takes into account the specific capital structure of the borrower and the related seniority of the instruments within the borrower’s capital structure into consideration. To estimate the enterprise value of the portfolio company, the Company weighs some or all of the traditional market valuation methods and factors based on the individual circumstances of the portfolio company in order to estimate the enterprise value.

The methodologies and information that the Company utilizes when applying the Market Approach for performing investments includes, among other things:

	•	valuations of comparable public companies (“Guideline Comparable Approach”);
	•	recent sales of private and public comparable companies (“Guideline Comparable Approach”);
	•	recent acquisition prices of the company, debt securities or equity securities (“Recent Arms-length Transaction”);
	•	external valuations of the portfolio company, offers from third parties to buy the company (“Estimated Sales Proceeds Approach”);
	•	subsequent sales made by the company of its investments (“Expected Sales Proceeds Approach”); and
	•	estimating the value to potential buyers.

The methodologies and information that the Company utilizes when applying the Income Approach for performing investments includes:

	•	discounting the forecasted cash flows of the portfolio company or securities (“Discounted Cash Flow” or “DCF” Approach); and
	•	Black-Scholes model or simulation models or a combination thereof (Income Approach – Option Model) with respect to the valuation of warrants.

For non-performing investments, the Company may estimate the liquidation or collateral value of the portfolio company’s assets and liabilities using an expected recovery model. The Company may estimate the fair value of warrants based on a model such as the Black-Scholes model or simulation models or a combination thereof.

The Company undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter when valuing investments for which market quotations are not readily available, as described below:

	•	the quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio investment being initially valued by the Company's valuation professionals;
	•	preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management; and
	•	an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company’s board of directors prepares an independent valuation report for approximately one-third of the portfolio investments each quarter on a rotating quarterly basis on non-fiscal year-end quarters, such that each of these investments will be valued by an independent valuation firm at least twice per annum when combined with the fiscal year-end review of all the investments by independent valuation firms.

In addition, all of the Company’s investments are subject to the following valuation process:

	•	management reviews preliminary valuations and its own independent assessment;
	•	the independent audit committee of the Company’s board of directors reviews the preliminary valuations of senior management and independent valuation firms; and
	•	the Company’s board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in the Company’s portfolio in good faith based on the input of SIC Advisors, the respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.

The Company’s investments in subordinated notes are carried at fair value, which is based on a discounted cash flow model. The discounted cash flow model models both the underlying collateral (assets) and the liabilities of the CLO capital structure. The discounted cash flow model uses a set of assumptions including projected default rates, recovery rates, reinvestment rates and prepayment rates in order to arrive at estimated cash flows of the assets. The discounted cash flow model distributes the asset cash flows to the liability structure based on the payment priorities and discounts them back using appropriate market discount rates based on discount rates for comparable CLOs. The assumptions are based on available market data as well as management estimates. Additional data is used to validate the results from the discounted cash flow method, such as analysis of relevant data observed in the CLO market, review of quotes, where available, recent acquisitions and observable transactions in the subordinated notes, among other factors.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s long-term obligations are discussed in Note 5.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes

The Company has elected, and intends to qualify annually, to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to continue to qualify as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of the sum of its investment company taxable income ("ICTI") including PIK, as defined by the Code, and net tax-exempt interest income (which is the excess of the Company’s gross tax-exempt interest income over certain disallowed deductions) for each taxable year in order to be eligible for tax treatment under Subchapter M of the Code. Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year dividend distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such ICTI.

The Company will be subject to a nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax of 4% on undistributed income if it does not distribute at least 98% of its ordinary income in any calendar year and 98.2% of its capital gain net income for each one-year period ending on October 31 of such calendar year. To the extent the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions for U.S. federal excise tax purposes, the Company accrues U.S. federal excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company distributed at least 98% of its ordinary income and 98.2% of its capital gains, and as such, there was no excise tax accrual or expense recorded.

The Taxable Subsidiaries accrue income taxes payable based on the applicable corporate rates on the unrealized gains generated by the investments held by the Taxable Subsidiaries. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $~~1,582,627~~4,214,716 and $2,390,596, respectively, on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The change in deferred tax liabilities is included as a component of net realized and unrealized gain/(loss) on investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

ICTI generally differs from net investment income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses. The Company may be required to recognize ICTI in certain circumstances in which it does not receive cash. For example, if the Company holds debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as having original issue discount ("OID"), the Company must include in ICTI each year a portion of the OID that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by the Company in the same taxable year. The Company may also have to include in ICTI other amounts that it has not yet received in cash, such as PIK interest income. Because any OID or other amounts accrued will be included in the Company’s ICTI for the year of accrual, the Company may be required to make a distribution to its stockholders in order to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements, even though the Company will not have received and may not ever receive any corresponding cash amount. ICTI also excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as investment gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized.

Although the Company files federal and state tax returns, the Company's major tax jurisdiction is the United States federal jurisdiction. The Company’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

The Company accounts for income taxes in conformity with ASC Topic 740 - Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current period. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no interest or penalties due to material uncertain income tax positions at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation are $~~30,052,559~~36,055,498 and $~~105,927,074~~85,276,644, respectively. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, net unrealized depreciation is $~~75,874,515~~49,221,146 based on a tax basis cost of $~~702,160,989~~680,567,873.

As of December 31, 2020, for federal income tax purposes, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation are $28,388,444 and $119,104,895, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, net unrealized depreciation is $90,716,451 based on a tax basis cost of $694,702,931.

Segments

The Company invests in various industries. The Company separately evaluates the performance of each of its investment relationships. However, because each of these investment relationships has similar business and economic characteristics, they have been aggregated into a single investment segment.

Company Investment Risk, Concentration of Credit Risk, and Liquidity Risk

SIC Advisors has broad discretion in making investments for the Company. Investments generally consist of debt instruments that may be affected by business, financial market or legal uncertainties. Prices of investments may be volatile, and a variety of factors that are inherently difficult to predict, such as domestic or international economic and political developments, may significantly affect the results of the Company’s activities and the value of its investments. In addition, the value of the Company’s portfolio may fluctuate as the general level of interest rates fluctuates.

The value of the Company’s investments in loans and bonds may be detrimentally affected to the extent, among other things, that a borrower defaults on its obligations, there is insufficient collateral and/or there are extensive legal and other costs incurred in collecting on a defaulted loan, observable secondary or primary market yields for similar instruments issued by comparable companies increase materially or risk premiums required in the market between smaller companies, such as the Company’s borrowers, and those for which market yields are observable, increase materially.

The Company’s assets may, at any time, include securities and other financial instruments or obligations that are illiquid or thinly traded, making purchase or sale of such securities and financial instruments at desired prices or in desired quantities difficult. Furthermore, the sale of any such investments may be possible only at substantial discounts, and it may be extremely difficult to value any such investments accurately.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference rate reform (Topic 848)—Facilitation of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting." The amendments in this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to certain contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform and became effective upon issuance for all entities. The Company has agreements that have LIBOR as a reference rate with certain portfolio companies and also with our lender, including financial instruments that mature before and after the end of 2021, when certain LIBOR reference rates will be discontinued. Many of these agreements, including the credit agreement relating to the Alpine Credit Facility, include language for choosing an alternative successor rate if LIBOR reference is no longer considered to be appropriate. With respect to other agreements, the Company intends to work with its portfolio companies and lenders to modify agreements to choose an alternative successor rate. Contract modifications are required to be evaluated in determining whether the modifications result in the establishment of new contracts or the continuation of existing contracts. The standard is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and the Company plans to apply the amendments in this update to account for contract modifications due to changes in reference rates. The Company does not believe that it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In accordance with Rules 3-09 and 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X, the Company must determine if any of its portfolio companies is considered a “significant subsidiary.” Pursuant to the definition of “significant subsidiary” applicable to investment companies set forth in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X, a portfolio company will meet the definition of “significant subsidiary” if either the investment test or the income test is triggered. Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X requires the Company to include separate audited financial statements of any unconsolidated majority-owned subsidiary (portfolio company in which the Company owns greater than 50% of the unconsolidated subsidiary) in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K if one of the following conditions are met: (i) if the portfolio investment’s fair value exceeds 20% of the Company’s total investments fair value (the investment test); or (ii) either (A) if the income from the portfolio investment exceeds 80% of the Company’s absolute value of the change in net assets from operations of the Company and its subsidiaries (the income test) or (B) if the income from the portfolio investment exceeds 20% of the Company’s absolute value of the change in net assets from operations of the Company and its subsidiaries and have a fair value exceeding 5% of the Company’s total investment fair value (the alternate income test). If the Company has an unconsolidated majority-owned subsidiary and does not satisfy any Rule 3-09 significant subsidiary conditions during a quarter end, the Company must include summarized income statement within the notes to the quarterly financial statements.

Rule 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X requires the Company to include summarized financial statements of any unconsolidated controlled subsidiary (portfolio company in which the Company owns greater than 25% of the voting securities of the unconsolidated subsidiary or otherwise controls the subsidiary) in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K if one of the following conditions are met: (i) if the portfolio investment’s fair value exceeds 10% of the Company’s total investments fair value (the investment test); or (ii) either (A) if the income from the portfolio investment exceeds 80% of the Company’s absolute value of the change in net assets from operations of the Company and its subsidiaries (the income test) or (B) if the income from the portfolio investment income exceeds 10% of the Company’s absolute value of the change in net assets from operations of the Company and its subsidiaries and have a fair value exceeding 5% of the Company’s total investment fair value (the alternate income test).

After performing the investment and income analysis for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, excluding Sierra JV, the Company determined that no portfolio company would be deemed to be a significant subsidiary pursuant to Rules 3-09 and 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC 820 for measuring the fair value of portfolio investments. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instruments’ complexity. The Company’s fair value analysis includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Financial investments recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the investment as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows. Investments which are valued using NAV as a practical expedient are excluded from this hierarchy:

	•	Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
	•	Level 2 — Valuations based on inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable at the measurement date. This category includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets including actionable bids from third parties for privately held assets or liabilities, and observable inputs other than quoted prices such as yield curves and forward currency rates that are entered directly into valuation models to determine the value of derivatives or other assets or liabilities.
	•	Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and where there is little, if any, market activity at the measurement date. The inputs for the determination of fair value may require significant management judgment or estimation and is based upon management’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities. These investments include debt and equity investments in private companies or assets valued using the Market or Income Approach and may involve pricing models whose inputs require significant judgment or estimation because of the absence of any meaningful current market data for identical or similar investments. The inputs in these valuations may include, but are not limited to, capitalization and discount rates, beta and Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") multiples. The information may also include pricing information or broker quotes which include a disclaimer that the broker would not be held to such a price in an actual transaction. The non-binding nature of consensus pricing and/or quotes accompanied by disclaimer would result in classification as Level 3 information, assuming no additional corroborating evidence.

In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, the Company employs the valuation policy approved by the board of directors that is consistent with ASC 820 (see Note 2). Consistent with the Company’s valuation policy, the Company evaluates the source of inputs, including any markets in which the Company’s investments are trading, in determining fair value.

The following table presents the fair value measurements of the Company’s total investments, by major class according to the fair value hierarchy, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021:

(1)	Represents the method used when the Company has determined that market participants would use such inputs when measuring the fair value of these investments.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s debt and derivative investments are market yields. Increases in market yields would result in lower fair value measurements.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s equity/warrants investments are comparable company multiples of revenue or EBITDA for the latest twelve months (“LTM”), next twelve months (“NTM”) or a reasonable period a market participant would consider. Increases in revenue or EBITDA multiples in isolation would result in higher fair value measurement.

As a BDC, the Company is generally allowed to employ leverage to the extent that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% (or 150% if certain requirements under the 1940 Act are met) after giving effect to such leverage. The amount of leverage that the Company employs at any time depends on its assessment of the market and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing.

The fair value of the Company’s debt obligation is determined in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value in terms of the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Company’s margin borrowings are estimated based upon market interest rates for its own borrowings or entities with similar credit risk, adjusted for nonperformance risk, if any. The Company’s debt obligation is recorded at its carrying value, which approximates fair value.

ING Credit Facility

On August 12, 2016, the Company amended its existing senior secured syndicated revolving credit facility (the “ING Credit Facility” as amended from time to time as described below) pursuant to a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement” as amended from time to time as described below) with certain lenders party thereto from time to time and ING Capital LLC, as administrative agent. The ING Credit Facility was secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, subject to certain exclusions as further set forth in an Amended and Restated Guarantee, Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) entered into in connection with the Revolving Credit Agreement, among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, ING Capital LLC, as Administrative Agent, each Financial Agent and Designated Indebtedness Holder party thereto and ING Capital LLC, as Collateral Agent. The ING Credit Facility also included usual and customary representations, covenants and events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.

On May 15, 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Revolving Credit Agreement to among other things, (i) shorten the maturity date from March 31, 2021 to September 30, 2020, (ii) accelerate the amortization of the Revolving Credit Agreement, and (iii) provide for the prepayment of the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $20 million. On July 22, 2020, the Company paid all remaining outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. On July 31, 2020 (the “Termination Date”), the Company terminated the commitments on the Credit Agreement.

The Company was also required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders based on the daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments under the ING Credit Facility. The commitment fee was (i) 1.50% if the used portion of the aggregate commitments is less than or equal to 40%, (ii) 0.75% if the used portion of the aggregate commitments is greater than 40% and less than or equal to 65% or (iii) 0.50% if the used portion of the aggregate commitments is greater than 65%. The ING Credit Facility provided that the Company may use the proceeds of the ING Credit Facility for general corporate purposes, including making investments in accordance with the Company’s investment objective and strategy.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement were subject to, among other things, a minimum borrowing base. Substantially all of the Company’s assets were pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The ING Credit Facility required the Company to, among other things (i) make representations and warranties regarding the collateral as well the Company’s business and operations, (ii) agree to certain indemnification obligations, and (iii) agree to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants. The documents for the Revolving Credit Agreement also included default provisions, such as the failure to make timely payments under the Revolving Credit Agreement, the occurrence of a change in control, and the failure by the Company to materially perform under the operative agreements governing the Revolving Credit Agreement, which, if not complied with, could have accelerated repayment under the Revolving Credit Agreement, thereby materially and adversely affecting the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

In connection with the security interest established under the Security Agreement, the Company, ING Capital LLC, in its capacity as collateral agent, and State Street Bank and Trust Company, in its capacity as the Company’s custodian, entered into a control agreement dated as of December 4, 2013, in order to, among other things, perfect the security interest granted pursuant to the Security Agreement in, and provide for control over, the related collateral. As a result of the termination of the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement was terminated effective as of the Termination Date.

Alpine Credit Facility

On September 29, 2017, the Company’s wholly-owned, special purpose financing subsidiary, Alpine, amended its existing revolving credit facility (the “Alpine Credit Facility”) pursuant to an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPMorgan”), as administrative agent and lender, the Financing Providers from time to time party thereto, SIC Advisors, as the portfolio manager, and the Collateral Administrator, Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary party thereto. The Loan Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) extend the reinvestment period until December 29, 2020, (ii) extend the scheduled termination date until March 29, 2022, (iii) decrease the applicable margin for advances to 2.85% per annum and (iv) increase the compliance condition for net advances to 55% of net asset value. Alpine’s obligations to JPMorgan under the Alpine Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in a significant portion of the assets of Alpine, including its portfolio of loans. The obligations of Alpine under the Alpine Credit Facility are non-recourse to the Company.

On November 18, 2020, Alpine entered into Amendment No.1 to the Loan Agreement to, among other things, (i) extend the reinvestment period from December 29, 2020 to May 18, 2021, (ii) increase the applicable margin for advances from 2.85% to 3.10% per annum, (iii) reduce the amount of maximum borrowings in an aggregate principal amount from $300,000,000 to $180,000,000 on a committed basis, (iv) require the Company to maintain a minimum a cash balance of $20,000,000 in Alpine, and (v) decrease the compliance condition for net advances from 55% to 52.5% of net asset value. The maturity date under the Loan Agreement did not change and therefore any amounts borrowed, as well as all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder, will be due and payable on March 29, 2022. In connection with the Amendment, the Company repaid $35,000,000 of the outstanding balance under the Loan Agreement on November 18, 2020, reducing the outstanding balance from $180,000,000 to $145,000,000. IfThe Alpine ~~is not able to extend the~~Credit Facility ended its reinvestment period ofon May 18, 2021 ~~or refinance~~and has entered its ~~existing indebtedness~~amortization period.

Pricing under the Alpine Credit Facility for each one month calculation period is based on LIBOR for an interest period of one month, plus a spread of 3.10% per annum. If LIBOR is unavailable, pricing will be determined at the prime rate offered by JPMorgan or the federal funds effective rate, plus a spread of 3.10% per annum. Interest is payable monthly in arrears. ~~Alpine is also required to pay a commitment fee of 1.00% on the average daily unused amount of the financing commitments to the extent that $300,000,000 has not been borrowed.~~

Borrowings of Alpine are considered borrowings of the Company for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act, applicable to BDCs.

Pursuant to a Sale and Contribution Agreement entered into between the Company and Alpine (the “Sale Agreement”) in connection with the Alpine Credit Facility, the Company may sell loans or contribute cash or loans to Alpine from time to time and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through its ownership of Alpine or will receive fair market value for any assets sold to Alpine. In certain circumstances the Company may be required to repurchase certain loans sold to Alpine. In addition to the acquisition of loans pursuant to the Sale Agreement, Alpine may purchase additional assets from various sources. Alpine has appointed SIC Advisors to manage its portfolio of assets pursuant to the terms of a Portfolio Management Agreement between SIC Advisors and Alpine.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying amount of the Company’s borrowings under the Alpine Credit Facility approximated the fair value of the Company’s debt obligation. The fair value of the Company’s debt obligation is determined in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value in terms of the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Company’s borrowings under the Alpine Credit Facility is estimated based upon market interest rates of the Company’s borrowings or entities with similar credit risk, adjusted for nonperformance risk, if any. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, certain unobservable inputs used to value the Alpine Credit Facility would be deemed to be Level 3, as defined in Note 4.

Note 6. Agreements

Investment Advisory Agreement

On April 5, 2012, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with SIC Advisors to manage the Company’s investment activities. The Investment Advisory Agreement became effective as of April 17, 2012, the date that the Company met its minimum offering requirement. Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the initial term of the Investment Advisory Agreement was for two years from its effective date. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to its terms, the Investment Advisory Agreement will remain in effect from year-to-year thereafter if approved annually at an in-person meeting of the Company’s board of directors by a majority of the directors who are not "interested persons" (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Company or the Adviser, and either the Company’s board of directors or the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting securities. Most recently, on April 15, 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term, which will expire on April 17, 2022. In connection with the foregoing, subsequent to quarter end, on April 23, 2021, the Company entered into an incentive fee waiver agreement with SIC Advisors (the “Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement”). See Note 14 for more information.

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, SIC Advisors implements the Company’s business strategy on a day-to-day basis and performs certain services for the Company, subject to oversight by the Company’s board of directors. SIC Advisors is responsible for, among other duties, determining investment criteria, sourcing, analyzing and executing investment transactions, asset sales, financings and performing asset management duties. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay SIC Advisors a management fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of a base management fee and an incentive fee.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of the Company’s gross assets payable quarterly in arrears. For purposes of calculating the base management fee, the term “gross assets” includes any assets acquired with the proceeds of leverage. For the first quarter of the Company’s operations, the base management fee was calculated based on the initial value of the Company’s gross assets. Subsequently, the base management fee is calculated based on the gross assets at the end of each completed calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial quarter are appropriately pro-rated. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an expense for base management fees of $~~3,066,397~~3,025,363. and $6,091,760, respectively. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company recorded an expense for base management fees of $~~3,251,451~~2,944,745. and $6,196,196, respectively. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a base management fee payable of $~~3,066,397~~3,025,363 and $2,967,857, respectively.

The incentive fee consists of the following two parts:

An incentive fee on net investment income (“Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income”) is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and is based upon pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding quarter. No Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income is payable in any calendar quarter in which pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed a quarterly return to stockholders of 1.75% per quarter on the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter (the “Preferred Quarterly Return”). All pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the Preferred Quarterly Return, but is less than or equal to 2.1875% of net assets at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter in any quarter, will be payable to SIC Advisors. The Company refers to this portion of its Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income as the “Catch Up”. It is intended to provide an incentive fee of 20% on pre-incentive fee net investment income when pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% of net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter in any quarter. For any quarter in which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% of net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter, the Subordinated Incentive Fee on Income shall equal 20% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, because the Preferred Quarterly Return and Catch Up will have been achieved.

F-43

Table of Contents

For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020 the Company recorded no incentive fees. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded no incentive fees payable.

A capital gains incentive fee will be earned on realized investments and shall be payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year during which the Investment Advisory Agreement is in effect. If the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated, the incentive fee will also become payable as of the effective date of such termination. The incentive fee equals 20% of the realized capital gains, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. The incentive fee on capital gains is equal to realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis.

Under GAAP, the Company calculates capital gains incentive fees as if the Company had realized all assets at their fair values and liabilities at their settlement amounts as of the reporting date. GAAP requires that the capital gains incentive fee accrual assume the cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation is realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. Accordingly, the Company accrues a provisional capital gains incentive fee taking into account any unrealized gains or losses. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future and that the provisional capital gains incentive fee will become payable.

On April 23, 2021, the Company entered into the Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement with SIC Advisors, pursuant to which SIC Advisors agreed to waive (i) 50% of any incentive fee on income payable to SIC Advisors for any fiscal quarter during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2021 and the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2022, and (ii) 50% of any incentive fee on capital gains payable to SIC Advisors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. For the avoidance of doubt, the Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement does not amend the calculation of the incentive fees as set forth in the Investment Advisory Agreement. Other than the waiver contemplated by the Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement, the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Following (i) the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2022 with respect to the waiver granted by SIC Advisors on any incentive fee payable on income, and (ii) the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 with respect to the waiver granted by SIC Advisors on any incentive fee payable on capital gains, unless otherwise extended by the Company and SIC Advisors, the Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement will terminate and the original terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement will be in full force and effect.

For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded no capital gains incentive fees. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded no capital gains incentive fees payable.

Administration Agreement

On April 5, 2012, the Company entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with Medley Capital LLC, pursuant to which Medley Capital LLC furnishes the Company with administrative services necessary to conduct its day-to-day operations. Medley Capital LLC is reimbursed for administrative expenses it incurs on the Company’s behalf in performing its obligations. Such costs are reasonably allocated to the Company on the basis of assets, revenues, time records or other reasonable methods. The Company does not reimburse Medley Capital LLC for any services for which it receives a separate fee or for rent, depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items allocated to a controlling person of Medley Capital LLC. Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Administration Agreement remained in effect for an initial period of two years from its effective date. The Administration Agreement became effective on April 17, 2012, the date that we met our minimum offering requirement. Pursuant to its terms, and unless earlier terminated as described below, the Administration Agreement will remain in effect from year-to-year if approved annually by a majority of our directors who are not "interested persons" (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Company or Medley Capital LLC, and either the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities or our board of directors. Most recently, on April 15, 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved the renewal of the Administration Agreement for an additional one-year term, which will expire on April 17, 2022. ~~In connection with the foregoing, subsequent to quarter end, on~~

On April 23, 2021, the Company entered into ~~an expense limitation agreement~~the Expense Limitation Agreement with Medley Capital LLC, ~~(the “Expense~~the Company’s administrator, pursuant to which, Medley Capital LLC agreed that the amount of expenses payable and reimbursable by the Company under the Administration Agreement will be capped at $2.2 million for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. For the avoidance of doubt, other than the cap contemplated by the Expense Limitation ~~Agreement”). See Note 14 for more information.~~ Agreement, the Expense Limitation Agreement does not amend the allocation of costs and expenses that are payable or reimbursable by the Company under the Administration Agreement. Following the quarter ending December 31, 2021, unless otherwise extended by the Company and Medley Capital LLC, the Expense Limitation Agreement will terminate and the original terms of the Administration Agreement will be in full force and effect.

On February 28, 2013, Medley Capital LLC entered into a Sub-Administration Agreement with State Street Bank Global Fund Accounting and Custody to perform certain financial, accounting, administrative and other services on behalf of the Company. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company recorded administrator expenses of $~~643,620~~582,279. and $1,225,899, respectively. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company recorded administrator expenses of $~~721,632~~669,025. and $1,390,657, respectively. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had administrator fees payable of $~~643,620~~549,544 and $401,260, respectively.

We have entered into a license agreement with SIC Advisors under which SIC Advisors has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Sierra” for specified purposes in our business. Under this license agreement, we will have a right to use the “Sierra” name, subject to certain conditions, for so long as SIC Advisors or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited license, we will have no legal right to the “Sierra” name.

Opportunities for co-investments may arise when SIC Advisors or an affiliated adviser becomes aware of investment opportunities that may be appropriate for the Company and other clients or affiliated funds. The Company obtained an exemptive order from the SEC on November 25, 2013 (the “Prior Exemptive Order”). On March 29, 2017, the Company, SIC Advisors and certain other affiliated funds and investment advisers received an exemptive order (the "Exemptive Order") that supersedes the Prior Exemptive Order and allows affiliated registered investment companies to participate in co-investment transactions with us that would otherwise have been prohibited under Section 17(d) and 57(a)(4) and Rule 17d-1. On October 4, 2017, the Company, SIC Advisors and certain of our affiliates received an exemptive order that supersedes the Exemptive Order (the “Current Exemptive Order”) and allows, in addition to the entities already covered by the Exemptive Order, Medley LLC and its subsidiary, Medley Capital LLC, to the extent they hold financial assets in a principal capacity, and any direct or indirect, wholly- or majority-owned subsidiary of Medley LLC that is formed in the future, to participate in co-investment transactions with us that would otherwise be prohibited by either or both of Sections 17(d) and 57(a)(4) of the 1940 Act.

Note 11. Fee Income

Fee income consists of origination fees, amendment fees, prepayment fees, administrative agent fees and other miscellaneous fees. Origination fees, prepayment fees, amendment fees, and other similar fees are non-recurring fee sources. Such fees are received on a transaction by transaction basis and do not constitute a regular stream of income. The following table shows the Company’s fee income for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Note 12. Distributions and Share Repurchase Program

Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Company’s board of directors.

The Company has adopted an “opt in” distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) pursuant to which the Company’s stockholders may elect to have the full amount of any cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock. On June 30, 2017, the Board approved an amendment to the DRIP, pursuant to which the number of newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued to a participating stockholder shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such stockholder by a price equal to 94.5%, rather than 90%, of the Company’s then current offering price. The Company amended the DRIP as a result of the Company’s revised fee structure relating to the Company's offering of shares of common stock, which went into effect on June 16, 2017. Under the Company’s revised fee structure the upfront selling commission was reduced from 7.00% of gross proceeds to up to 3.00% of gross proceeds and the dealer manager fee was reduced from 2.75% of gross proceeds to up to 2.50% of gross proceeds. If the Company declares a cash dividend or other distribution, each stockholder that has “opted in” to the DRIP will have their distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock rather than receiving cash distributions. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will be subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.

For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company distributed a total of ~~$3,080,969,~~$6,155,065, of which ~~$2,054,783~~$4,112,488 was in cash and ~~$1,026,186~~$2,042,577 was in the form of common stock associated with the DRIP. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company distributed a total of ~~$10,691,828,~~$10,707,406, of which ~~$6,848,697,~~$6,864,275, was in cash and $3,843,131 was in the form of common stock issued under the DRIP.

The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that the Company has declared or paid to its stockholders during 2021 and 2020. Stockholders of record as of each respective record date were entitled to receive the distribution.

The Company’s distributions may be funded from borrowings, which may constitute a return of capital and reduce the amount of capital available to the Company for investment, and historically may have been funded from offering proceeds or borrowings. Any capital returned to stockholders through distributions will be distributed after payment of fees and expenses. On July 31, 2020, our board of directors temporarily suspended the monthly distributions on the shares of the Company’s common stock. On October 22, 2020, our board of directors determined to reinstate the monthly distributions on the shares of the Company’s common stock.

During the term of the Expense Support and Reimbursement Agreement with SIC Advisors (which expired on December 31, 2016), SIC Advisors reimbursed the Company for operating expenses in an amount equal to the difference between the Company’s distributions paid to its stockholders in each month, less the sum of the Company’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and dividends paid to the Company from its portfolio companies, not included in net income and net realized capital gains, during such period (“Expense Support Reimbursement”). The Company’s previous distributions to stockholders may have been funded from temporary Expense Support Reimbursements that may have been subject to repayment to SIC Advisors. The portion of these distributions derived from temporary Expense Support Reimbursements were not based on the Company's investment performance and may not continue in the future. If SIC Advisors had not agreed to make Expense Support Reimbursements, these distributions would have come from paid-in-capital. The Company's contingent obligation to repay eligible reimbursements to SIC Advisors expired on September 30, 2019.

The determination of the tax attributes (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on the sale of securities, and/or a return of paid-in-capital surplus which is a nontaxable distribution) of distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year based upon its taxable income earned and distributions paid during the fiscal year.

Share Repurchase Program

In June 2013, the Company commenced a share repurchase program pursuant to which it conducted quarterly share repurchases of up to 2.5% of the weighted average number of outstanding shares of its common stock in the prior four calendar quarters or 10% of the weighted average number of outstanding shares in the prior 12-month period. In connection with the ~~Proposed Mergers,~~previously proposed mergers of the Company, MDLY, and Medley Capital Corporation, the Company suspended the Share Repurchase Program. The purpose of the share repurchase program was to allow stockholders to sell their shares back to the Company at a price equal to the most recently disclosed NAV per share of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the date of repurchase. Shares were purchased from stockholders participating in the program on a pro-rata basis. Unless the Company's board of directors determined otherwise, the number of shares repurchased during any calendar year were limited to the proceeds received in association with the sale of shares of common stock under the DRIP.

Notwithstanding the suspension of the share repurchase program our board of directors approved the repurchase of shares of our common stock from our stockholders who have requested repurchases in connection with such stockholder’s death or disability. In the event of the death or disability of a stockholder, the Company will repurchase the shares held by such stockholder at a price equal to the NAV per share of our shares as disclosed in the periodic report the Company files with the SEC immediately following the date of the death or disability of such stockholder. The Company's board of directors has the right to suspend or terminate repurchases due to death or disability to the extent that it determines that it is in the Company's best interest to do so. ~~During the~~ ~~three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased~~ ~~2,451~~ ~~shares of certain shareholders due to death or disability. During the~~ ~~three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company repurchased 124,861 shares of certain shareholders due to death or disability.~~

~~Subsequent to quarter end,~~In addition, on April 28, 2021, ~~the Company’s~~our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company intends to conduct quarterly share repurchases, beginning in the second ~~quarter. See Note 14~~quarter of 2021, of the lesser of: (i) the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, that the Company can purchase with the proceeds received under the DRIP from the prior quarter; or (ii) 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the first share repurchase offer for ~~more information.~~the quarter ending June 30, 2021, the Company intends to repurchase the number of shares that the Company can purchase with the proceeds received under the DRIP from the prior two quarters. The purpose of the Share Repurchase Program is to allow stockholders to sell their shares back to the Company at a price equal to the most recently disclosed net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to the date of such share repurchase. Shares will be purchased from stockholders participating in the Share Repurchase Program on a pro rata basis. The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued by our board of directors at any time.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 962,031 and 964,482 shares of certain shareholders pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program and due to death or disability, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 34,086 and 158,947 shares of certain shareholders due to death or disability, respectively.

As previously reported, on March 7, 2021, Medley LLC, the parent of the Company’s investment adviser and administrator, commenced a voluntary case (the “Chapter 11 Case”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Chapter 11 Case is captioned In re Medley LLC, No, 21-10526 (KBO) (Bankr. D. Del. Mar. 7, 2021).

In ~~addition,~~connection with the Chapter 11 Case, on ~~April 28,~~August 11, 2021 ~~our board of directors authorized~~the Company entered into a ~~share repurchase program,~~commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) among the Company, Medley LLC, Medley Capital LLC, and SIC Advisors, pursuant to which the Company ~~intends~~has agreed to ~~conduct quarterly share repurchases, beginning~~contribute $2.1 million, subject to certain conditions, to an employee compensation and retention plan (the “Compensation Plan”) to be established by Medley Capital LLC.

The Company’s obligations under the Commitment Letter are subject to review and approval of definitive documents relating to the Compensation Plan, conditionally approved by the Bankruptcy Court for purposes of solicitation of votes, in form and substance consistent with the ~~proceeds received under~~Compensation Plan included as an exhibit to the ~~DRIP from~~Term Sheet.

The Company may terminate the ~~prior quarter;~~Commitment Letter by written notice to Medley LLC, Medley Capital LLC, and SIC Advisors upon the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, the entry by the Bankruptcy Court of an order materially inconsistent with the Term Sheet; the failure by the Bankruptcy Court to have entered an appropriate order by November 30, 2021; or ~~(ii) 2.5% of~~ the ~~weighted average number of Shares outstanding~~failure by SIC Advisors to comply with any covenant or agreement in the ~~prior four calendar quarters (the “Share Repurchase Program”).

Recent COVID-19 Developments

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and, on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. The outbreak of COVID-19 has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has been rapidly evolving and has led to, and for an unknown period of time will continue to lead to, disruptions in local, regional, national and global markets and economies affected thereby, including the United States. The COVID-19 pandemic and restrictive measures taken to contain or mitigate its spread have caused, and are continuing to cause, business shutdowns, or the re-introduction of business shutdowns, cancellations of events and restrictions on travel, significant reductions in demand for certain goods and services, reductions in business activity and financial transactions, supply chain interruptions and overall economic and financial market instability both globally and in the United States. In addition, although the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized vaccines for emergency use starting in December 2020, it is unclear how quickly the vaccines will be distributed nationwide and globally or when “herd immunity” will be achieved and the restrictions that were imposed to slow the spread of the virus will be lifted entirely. The delay in distributing the vaccines could lead people to continue to self-isolate and not participate in the economy at pre-pandemic levels for a prolonged period of time. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, the U.S. economy and most other major global economies may continue to experience a recession, and we anticipate our business and operations could be materially adversely affected by a prolonged recession in the United States and other major markets.

We have been closely monitoring, and will continue to monitor, the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on all aspects of our business, including how it will impact our portfolio companies, employees, due diligence and underwriting processes, and financial markets. In addition, as a result of the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related disruption and financial distress, certain portfolio companies may seek to modify their loans from us, which could reduce the amount or extend the time for payment of principal, reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest, and/or increase the amount of PIK interest we receive with respect to such investment, among other things. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have also impeded, and may continue to impede, the ability of certain of our portfolio companies to raise additional capital and/or pursue asset sales or otherwise execute strategic transactions, which could have a material adverse effect on the valuation of our investments in such companies. Portfolio companies operating in certain industries may be more susceptible to these risks than other portfolio companies in other industries in light of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the rapid development and fluidity of this situation, we cannot estimate the long-term impact of COVID-19 on our business, future results of operations, financial position or cash flows at this time. Further, the operational and financial performance of the portfolio companies in which we make investments may be significantly impacted by COVID-19, which may in turn impact the valuation of our investments. We believe our portfolio companies have taken, and continue to take, immediate actions to effectively and efficiently respond to the challenges posed by COVID-19 and related orders imposed by state and local governments, including developing liquidity plans supported by internal cash reserves, and shareholder ~~support, and, as appropriate, accessing their ability to participate in the government Paycheck Protection Program, including the second draw Paycheck Protection Program loans.~~support. The extent to which our operations may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic will depend largely on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including guidance from U.S. and international authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities. Furthermore, the impacts of a potential worsening of global economic conditions and the continued disruptions to and volatility in the financial markets remain unknown. COVID-19 presents material uncertainty and risks with respect to the underlying value of the Company’s portfolio companies, the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, such as the potential negative impact to financing arrangements, increased costs of operations, changes in law and/or regulation, and uncertainty regarding government and regulatory policy.

We have evaluated subsequent events from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 through the filing date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. However, as the discussion in this Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations relates to the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly period ~~end March 31,~~ended June 30, 2021, the analysis contained herein may not fully account for impacts relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. In that regard, for example, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company valued its portfolio investments in conformity with U.S. GAAP based on the facts and circumstances known by the Company at that time, or reasonably expected to be known at that time. Due to the overall volatility that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused during the time that followed our ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 valuation, any valuations conducted now or in the future in conformity with U.S. GAAP could result in a lower fair value of our portfolio. The impact to our results going forward will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration of COVID-19 and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the extent to which its financial condition and results of operations will be affected at this time.

Overview

We are an externally managed non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We are externally managed by SIC Advisors, which is an investment adviser registered with the SEC under the Advisers Act. SIC Advisors is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. In addition, we have elected, and intend to qualify annually to be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

Under our Investment Advisory Agreement, we pay SIC Advisors a base management fee as well as an incentive fee based on our investment performance. Also, under the Administration Agreement, we reimburse Medley for the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by Medley Capital LLC in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including our allocable portion of the costs of compensation and related expenses of our Chief Compliance Officer, Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs.

We intend to meet our investment objective by primarily lending to, and investing in, the debt of privately owned U.S. middle market companies, which we define as companies with annual revenue between $50 million and $1 billion. We intend to focus primarily on making investments in first lien senior secured debt, second lien secured debt, and to a lesser extent, subordinated debt, of middle market companies in a broad range of industries. We expect that the majority of our debt investments will bear interest at floating interest rates, but our portfolio may also include fixed-rate investments. We will originate transactions sourced through SIC Advisors’ existing network, and, to a lesser extent, expect to acquire debt securities through the secondary market. We may make equity investments in companies that we believe will generate appropriate risk adjusted returns, although we do not expect such investments to be a substantial portion of our portfolio.

Table of Contents

The level of our investment activity depends on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to prospective portfolio companies, the level of merger, acquisition and refinancing activity for such portfolio companies, the availability of credit to finance transactions, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make. The precise timing of our investment activity will depend on the availability of investment opportunities that are consistent with our investment objectives and strategies.

As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in “qualifying assets,” including securities of private or thinly traded public U.S. companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. In addition, we are only allowed to borrow money such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% (or 150% if certain requirements under the 1940 Act are met) after such borrowing, with certain limited exceptions. To maintain our RIC tax treatment, we must meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. To be eligible for RIC tax treatment under Subchapter M for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, for the taxable year.

Revenues

We generate revenue in the form of interest on the debt securities that we hold and distributions and capital gains on other interests that we acquire in our portfolio companies. We expect that the senior debt we invest in will generally have stated terms of three to ten years and that the subordinated debt we invest in will generally have stated terms of five to ten years. Our senior and subordinated debt investments bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest on debt securities is generally payable monthly, quarterly or semiannually. In addition, some of our investments 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. OIDs and market discounts or premiums will be capitalized, and we will accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We will record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as fee income. Dividend income, if any, will be recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts.

Expenses

Our primary annual operating expenses consist of the payment of advisory fees and the reimbursement of expenses under our Investment Advisory Agreement with SIC Advisors and our Administration Agreement with Medley Capital LLC. We bear other expenses, which include, among other things:

	•	corporate, organizational and offering expenses relating to offerings of our common stock, subject to limitations included in our Investment Advisory Agreement;
	•	the cost of calculating our NAV, including the related fees and cost of any third-party valuation services;
	•	the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of our common stock and other securities;
	•	fees payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, monitoring our financial and legal affairs, making investments, and valuing investments, including fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence reviews of prospective investments;
	•	interest payable on debt, if any, incurred to finance our investments;
	•	transfer agent and custodial fees;
	•	fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts subject to limitations included in the Investment Advisory Agreement;
	•	federal and state registration fees and any stock exchange listing fees;
	•	federal, state and local taxes;
	•	independent directors’ fees and expenses, including travel expenses;
	•	costs of director and stockholder meetings, proxy statements, stockholders’ reports and notices;
	•	costs of fidelity bonds, directors and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance and other types of insurance;
	•	direct costs, including those relating to printing of stockholder reports and advertising or sales materials, mailing, long distance telephone and staff subject to limitations included in the Investment Advisory Agreement;
	•	fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the 1940 Act and applicable federal and state securities laws;
	•	brokerage commissions for our investments;
	•	all other expenses incurred by us or SIC Advisors in connection with administering our investment portfolio, including expenses incurred by SIC Advisors in performing certain of its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; and
	•	the reimbursement of the compensation of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and their respective staffs, whose compensation is paid by Medley Capital LLC, to the extent that each such reimbursement amount is annually approved by our independent director committee and subject to the limitations included in our Administration Agreement.

Subsequent to quarter end, on April 23, 2021, the Company entered into an expense limitation agreement with Medley Capital LLC (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”). See “Recent Developments” for more information.

Administrative Services

We reimburse Medley Capital LLC for the administrative expenses necessary for its performance of services to us. However, such reimbursement is made at an amount equal to the lower of Medley Capital LLC’s actual costs or the amount that we would be required to pay for comparable administrative services in the same geographic location. Also, such costs will be reasonably allocated to us on the basis of assets, revenues, time records or other reasonable methods. We will not reimburse Medley Capital LLC for any services for which it receives a separate fee or for rent, depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items allocated to a controlling person of Medley Capital LLC.

On April 23, 2021, the Company entered into the Expense Limitation Agreement with Medley Capital LLC, the Company’s administrator, pursuant to which, Medley Capital LLC agreed that the amount of expenses payable and reimbursable by the Company under the Administration Agreement will be capped at $2.2 million for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. For the avoidance of doubt, other than the cap contemplated by the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Expense Limitation Agreement does not amend the allocation of costs and expenses that are payable or reimbursable by the Company under the Administration Agreement. Following the quarter ending December 31, 2021, unless otherwise extended by the Company and Medley Capital LLC, the Expense Limitation Agreement will terminate and the original terms of the Administration Agreement will be in full force and effect.

Table of Contents

SIC Advisors regularly assesses the risk profile of our portfolio investments and rates each of them based on the categories set forth below, which we refer to as SIC Advisors’ investment credit rating. Investment credit ratings are assigned to each of the investments in our portfolio that are directly held by the Company, but exclude any off-balance sheet interests of the Company:

Investment Credit Rating			Definition
1			Investments that are performing above expectations.

2			Investments that are performing within expectations, with risks that are neutral or favorable compared to risks at the time of origination or purchase. All new loans are rated ‘2’.

3			Investments that are performing below expectations and that require closer monitoring, but where no loss of interest, dividend or principal is expected. Companies rated ‘3’ may be out of compliance with financial covenants, however, loan payments are generally not past due.

4			Investments that are performing below expectations and for which risk has increased materially since origination or purchase. Some loss of interest or dividend is expected, but no loss of principal. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments may be past due (but generally not more than 180 days past due).

5			Investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since origination or purchase. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Some loss of principal is expected.

The following table shows the distribution of our investment portfolio, not including cash and cash equivalents, on the 1 to 5 investment credit rating scale at fair value as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our investment ratings as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, causing downgrades of certain portfolio companies. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, we are continuing to maintain close communications with our portfolio companies to proactively assess and manage potential risks across our investment portfolio. We have also increased oversight and analysis of credits in vulnerable industries in an attempt to improve loan performance and reduce credit risk.

Net Realized Gains/Losses on Investments

We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of an investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we recognized net realized ~~gain~~loss on investments of $~~70,795~~4,173,319, and $4,102,524 primarily due to the sale of investments. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we recognized net realized ~~gain~~loss on investments of ~~$217,479,~~$8,265,767 and $8,048,288 primarily due to the sale of investments.

Net Unrealized Appreciation/Depreciation on Investments

Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments reflects the net change in the fair value of our investments including the provision for deferred taxes. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we recorded a net change in unrealized appreciation, net of tax, of $~~15,828,693~~17,473,701. and $33,302,394 respectively. The unrealized appreciation for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 resulted from positive market and credit-related adjustments.

For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we recorded a net change in unrealized depreciation, net of ~~$120,282,285.~~tax, of $31,710,332 and $88,571,953 respectively. The unrealized depreciation was, in part, due to negative credit-related adjustments that caused a reduction in fair value of certain watch-list securities and portfolio investments on non-accrual status. In part, the net change in unrealized depreciation reflected widening credit spreads as market participants expected a higher yield on similar investments given the significant market volatility generated by the COVID-19 pandemic and, to some extent, other factors such as specific industry concerns, uncertainty about the duration of business shutdowns and near-term liquidity needs of certain of our portfolio investments.

Changes in Net Assets from Operations

For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $~~18,838,247~~18,412,851. and $37,251,098, respectively. Based on ~~102,771,859~~102,380,357 and 102,575,026 weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our per share net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $0.18. and $0.36 respectively.

For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we recorded a net ~~decrease~~increase in net assets resulting from operations of ~~$119,241,006.~~$8,676,902 and a net decrease in in net assets resulting from operations of $110,564,104 Based on ~~102,715,153~~102,856,314 and 102,785,734 weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, our per share net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $0.08 and our per share net decrease in net assets resulting from operations was ~~$1.16.~~$1.08.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a BDC, we distribute substantially all of our net income to our stockholders and have an ongoing need to raise additional capital for investment purposes. To fund growth, we have a number of alternatives available to increase capital, including increasing debt, and funding from operational cash flow.

Our liquidity and capital resources historically have been generated primarily from the net proceeds of our public offering of common stock, use of our credit facilities. ~~Currently, our primary source of liquidity is derived from the use of the Alpine Credit Facility.~~

Table of Contents

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $~~66.6~~54.1 million and $65.3 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. In the future, we may generate cash from future offerings of securities, future borrowings and cash flows from operations, including interest earned from the temporary investment of cash in U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. Our primary use of funds is to make investments in our targeted asset classes, cash distributions to our stockholders, and other general corporate purposes.

In order to satisfy the Code requirements applicable to us as a RIC, we intend to distribute to our stockholders substantially all of our taxable income, but we may also elect to periodically spillover certain excess undistributed taxable income from one tax year into the next tax year. In addition, as a BDC, we generally are required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total senior securities, which include borrowings and any preferred stock we may issue in the future, of at least 200% (or 150% if certain requirements under the 1940 Act are met) at the time of the borrowing or issuance of preferred stock. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow.

The following table shows our net borrowings as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 the carrying amount of the Company’s borrowings under the Alpine Credit Facility approximated the fair value of the Company’s debt obligation. The fair value of the Company’s debt obligation is determined in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value in terms of the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Company’s borrowings under the Alpine Credit Facility is estimated based upon market interest rates of the Company’s borrowings or entities with similar credit risk, adjusted for nonperformance risk, if any. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Alpine Credit Facility would be deemed to be Level 3, as defined in Note 4.

We have entered into certain contracts under which we have material future commitments. On April 5, 2012, we entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with SIC Advisors in accordance with the 1940 Act. The Investment Advisory Agreement became effective as of April 17, 2012, the date that we met the minimum offering requirement. Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the initial term of the Investment Advisory Agreement was for two years from its effective date, with one-year renewals subject to approval by our board of directors, a majority of whom must be independent directors. Most recently, on April 15, 2021, the board of directors approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term, which will expire on April 17, 2022. SIC Advisors serves as our investment adviser in accordance with the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Payments under our Investment Advisory Agreement in each reporting period consist of (i) a management fee equal to a percentage of the value of our gross assets and (ii) an incentive fee based on our performance.

On April 5, 2012, we entered into the Administration Agreement with Medley Capital LLC with an initial term of two years, pursuant to which Medley Capital LLC furnishes us with administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations. The Administration Agreement became effective as of April 17, 2012, the date that we met the minimum offering requirement. Pursuant to its terms, and unless earlier terminated as described below, the Administration Agreement will remain in effect from year-to-year if approved annually by a majority of our directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Company or Medley Capital LLC, and either the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities or our board of directors. Most recently, on April 15, 2021, the board of directors approved the renewal of the Administration Agreement for an additional one-year term, which will expire on April 17, 2022. Medley Capital LLC is reimbursed for administrative expenses it incurs on our behalf in performing its obligations. Such costs are reasonably allocated to us on the basis of assets, revenues, time records or other reasonable methods. We do not reimburse Medley Capital LLC for any services for which it receives a separate fee or for rent, depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items allocated to a controlling person of Medley Capital LLC.

If any of our contractual obligations discussed above are terminated, our costs may increase under any new agreements that we enter into as replacements. We would also likely incur expenses in locating alternative parties to provide the services we expect to receive under the investment advisory agreement and administration agreement. Any new investment advisory agreement would also be subject to approval by our stockholders.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Table of Contents

Sierra JV entered into a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, as amended (the "JV Facility") with Deutsche Bank, AG, New York Branch ("DB").

On March 29, 2019, the JV Facility reinvestment period was extended from March 30, 2019 to June 28, 2019.

On June 28, 2019, the JV Facility reinvestment period was further extended from June 28, 2019 to October 28, 2019.

On March 31, 2020, the total commitment under the JV Facility was reduced to $240.0 million from $250.0 million and the reinvestment period was extended from March 31, 2020 to April 30, 2020.

On July 29, 2020, the total commitment under the JV Facility was reduced to $175.0 million from $200.0 million, the reinvestment period was extended from July 31, 2020 to April 30, 2021 and the maturity date was extended to April 30, 2024. Additionally, the interest rate was modified from bearing an interest rate of LIBOR (with a 0.00% floor) + 2.75% per annum to LIBOR (with a 0.50% floor) + 3.25% per annum.

The Company has determined that Sierra JV is an investment company under ASC 946, however in accordance with such guidance, the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate its interest in Sierra JV.

Distributions

We have elected, and intend to qualify annually, to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain RIC tax treatment, we must, among others things, distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders. In order to avoid certain U.S. federal excise taxes imposed on RICs, we must distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of: (i) 98% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made by us to use our taxable year) and (iii) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax.

While we intend to distribute any income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize imposition of the 4% U.S. federal excise tax, sufficient amounts of our taxable income and capital gains may not be distributed to avoid entirely the imposition of the tax. In that event, we will be liable for the tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the foregoing distribution requirement.

We currently intend to distribute net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually out of the assets legally available for such distributions. However, we may decide in the future to retain such capital gains for investment and elect to treat such gains as deemed distributions to you. If this happens, you will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as if you had received an actual distribution of the capital gains that we retain and reinvested the net after tax proceeds in us. In this situation, you would be eligible to claim a tax credit (or, in certain circumstances, a tax refund) equal to your allocable share of the tax we paid on the capital gains deemed distributed to you. We can offer no assurance that we will continue to achieve results that will permit the payment of any cash distributions and, if we issue senior securities, we may be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes us to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings.

On July 31, 2020, our board of directors temporarily suspended the monthly distributions on the shares of the Company’s common stock. On October 22, 2020, our board of directors determined to reinstate the monthly distributions on the shares of the Company’s common stock. Any distributions to our stockholders paid by the Company is subject to our board of directors’ discretion and applicable legal restrictions and take into account our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions, or other factors prohibit us from declaring a distribution. Any distributions to our stockholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. From time to time, but not less than quarterly, we will review our accounts to determine whether distributions to our stockholders are appropriate. We have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from available sources to make distributions. From the commencement of our offering through September 30, 2016, a portion of our distributions were comprised in part of expense support payments made by SIC Advisors that were subject to repayment by us within three years of the date of such support payment.

Our distributions may exceed our earnings, which we refer to as a return of capital. As a result, a portion of the distributions we make may represent a return of capital. Our use of the term “return of capital” merely means distributions in excess of our earnings and as such may constitute a return on your individual investments and does not mean a return on capital. Therefore stockholders are advised that they should be aware of the differences with our use of the term “return of capital” and “return on capital.”

We have adopted an “opt in” DRIP pursuant to which common stockholders may elect to have the full amount of any cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. As a result, if we declare a cash distribution, stockholders that have “opted in” to our DRIP will have their distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock rather than receiving cash dividends. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will be subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.

Each year a statement on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-DIV (or such successor form) identifying the source of the distribution (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gain on the sale of securities, or a return of capital) will be mailed to our stockholders. The tax basis of shares must be reduced by the amount of any return of capital distributions, which will result in an increase in the amount of any taxable gain (or a reduction in any deductible loss) on the sale of shares.

Related Party Transactions

We have entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with SIC Advisors in which our senior management holds an equity interest and ~~were~~are party to the ~~Expense Support~~Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement ~~through December 31, 2016.~~ with SIC Advisors (as described and for periods set forth in "Management Fee").

Members of our senior management also serve as principals of other investment managers affiliated with SIC Advisors that do, and may in the future, manage investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles with investment objectives similar to ours.

Subsequent to quarter end, on April 23, 2021, the Company entered into each of the Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement with SIC Advisors and the Expense Limitation Agreement with Medley Capital LLC, the Company’s administrator. See “Recent Developments” for more information.

We have entered into a license agreement with SIC Advisors under which SIC Advisors has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Sierra” for specified purposes in our business. Under the license agreement, we will have a right to use the “Sierra” name, subject to certain conditions, for so long as SIC Advisors or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited license, we will have no legal right to the “Sierra” name. In addition, we entered into the Expense Limitation Agreement with Medley Capital LLC (as described and for the period set forth in "Administrative Services").

Management Fee

We pay SIC Advisors a fee for its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The fee consists of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of our gross assets and is payable quarterly in arrears. The incentive fee consists of:

	•	An incentive fee on net investment income (“subordinated incentive fee on income”) is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and is based upon pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding quarter. No subordinated incentive fee on income is payable in any calendar quarter in which pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed a quarterly return to stockholders of 1.75% per quarter on our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, or the preferred quarterly return. All pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the preferred quarterly return, but is less than or equal to 2.1875% of net assets at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter in any quarter, will be payable to SIC Advisors. We refer to this portion of our subordinated incentive fee on income as the catch up. It is intended to provide an incentive fee of 20% on pre-incentive fee net investment income when pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% of net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter in any quarter. For any quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% of net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter, the subordinated incentive fee on income shall equal 20% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, because the preferred return and catch up will have been achieved.
	•	A capital gains incentive fee will be earned on realized investments and shall be payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year during which the Investment Advisory Agreement is in effect. If the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated, the fee will become payable as of the effective date of such termination. The capital gains incentive fee is based on our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, which we refer to as “net realized capital gains.” The capital gains incentive fee equals 20% of net realized capital gains, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, SIC Advisors bears all organizational and offering expenses on our behalf. Since June 2, 2014, the date that we raised $300 million in gross proceeds in connection with the sale of shares of our common stock, SIC Advisors was no longer obligated to bear, pay or otherwise be responsible for any ongoing organizational and offering expenses on our behalf, and we were responsible for paying or otherwise incurring all such organizational and offering expenses. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, we had agreed to reimburse SIC Advisors for any such organizational and offering expenses incurred by SIC Advisors not to exceed 1.25% of the gross subscriptions raised by us over the course of the offering period, which was initially scheduled to terminate two years from the initial offering date, unless extended. On July 2, 2018, the Company’s board of directors determined to terminate the Company’s offering effective as of July 31, 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies

This discussion of our expected operating plans is based upon our expected consolidated financial statements, which will be prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements will require 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 will describe our critical accounting policies in the notes to our future consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of Investments

We apply fair value accounting to all of its financial instruments in accordance with the 1940 Act and ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, we have categorized its financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as identified below and discussed in Note 4.

	•	Level 1 — Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Publicly listed equities and publicly listed derivatives will be included in Level 1. In addition, securities sold, but not yet purchased and call options will be included in Level 1. We will not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where we hold a large position and a sale could reasonably affect the quoted price.
	•	Level 2 — Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. In certain cases, debt and equity securities are valued on the basis of prices from an orderly transaction between market participants provided by reputable dealers or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrices, market transactions in comparable investments, and various relationships between investments. Investments which are generally expected to be included in this category include corporate bonds and loans, convertible debt indexed to publicly listed securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives.
	•	Level 3 — Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant judgment or estimation. Investments that are expected to be included in this category are our private portfolio companies.

Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant who holds the financial instrument rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore, when market assumptions are not readily available, our own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or multiple broker-dealers or market makers. We weight the use of third-party broker quotes, if any, in determining fair value based on our understanding of the level of actual transactions used by the broker to develop the quote and whether the quote was an indicative price or binding offer. However, debt investments with remaining maturities within 60 days that are not credit impaired are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates fair value. Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by our board of directors based upon input from management and third party valuation firms. Because these investments are illiquid and because there may not be any directly comparable companies whose financial instruments have observable market values, these loans are valued using a fundamental valuation methodology, consistent with traditional asset pricing standards, that is objective and consistently applied across all loans and through time.

Table of Contents

We use third-party valuation firms to assist the board of directors in the valuation of its portfolio investments. The valuation reports generated by the third-party valuation firms consider the evaluation of financing and sale transactions with third parties, expected cash flows and market based information, including comparable transactions, performance multiples, and movement in yields of debt instruments, among other factors. Based on market data obtained from the third-party valuation firms, we use a combined market yield analysis and an enterprise model of valuation. In applying the market yield analysis, the value of our loans are determined based upon inputs such as the coupon rate, current market yield, interest rate spreads of similar securities, the stated value of the loan, and the length to maturity. In applying the enterprise model, we use a waterfall analysis which takes into account the specific capital structure of the borrower and the related seniority of the instruments within the borrower’s capital structure into consideration. To estimate the enterprise value of the portfolio company, we weigh some or all of the traditional market valuation methods and factors based on the individual circumstances of the portfolio company in order to estimate the enterprise value. The methodologies for performing investments may be based on, among other things: valuations of comparable public companies, recent sales of private and public comparable companies, discounting the forecasted cash flows of the portfolio company, third party valuations of the portfolio company, considering offers from third parties to buy the company, estimating the value to potential strategic buyers and considering the value of recent investments in the equity securities of the portfolio company. For non-performing investments, we may estimate the liquidation or collateral value of the portfolio company’s assets and liabilities using an expected recovery model. We may estimate the fair value of warrants based on a model such as the Black-Scholes model or simulation models or a combination thereof.

We undertake a multi-step valuation process each quarter when valuing investments for which market quotations are not readily available, as described below:

	•	our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio investment being initially valued by the valuation professionals;
	•	conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management; and
	•	an independent valuation firm engaged by our board of directors prepares an independent valuation report for approximately one third of the portfolio investments each quarter on a rotating quarterly basis on non fiscal year-end quarters, such that each of these investments will be valued by an independent valuation firm at least twice per annum when combined with the fiscal year-end review of all the investments by independent valuation firms.

In addition, all of our investments are subject to the following valuation process:

	•	management reviews preliminary valuations and their own independent assessment;
	•	the audit committee of our board of directors reviews the preliminary valuations of senior management and independent valuation firms; and
	•	our board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of SIC Advisors, the respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material. In addition, changes in the market environment (including the impact of COVID-19 on the financial market), portfolio company performance, and other events may occur over the lives of the investments that may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be materially different than the valuations currently assigned.

Our investments in subordinated notes are carried at fair value, which is based on a discounted cash flow model. The discounted cash flow model models both the underlying collateral (“assets”) and the liabilities of the CLO capital structure. The discounted cash flow model uses a set of assumptions including projected default rates, recovery rates, reinvestment rates and prepayment rates in order to arrive at estimated cash flows of the assets. The discounted cash flow model distributes the asset cash flows to the liability structure based on the payment priorities and discounts them back using appropriate market discount rates based on discount rates for comparable CLOs. The assumptions are based on available market data as well as management estimates. Additional data is used to validate the results from the discounted cash flow method, such as analysis of relevant data observed in the CLO market, review of quotes, where available, recent acquisitions and observable transactions in the subordinated notes, among other factors.

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 or accounting purposes if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. Original issue discounts, 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 fee income. Dividend income, if any, is recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amount.

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. 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.

Payment-in-Kind Interest

We have investments in our portfolio that contain a PIK interest provision. Any PIK interest is 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 RIC tax treatment, substantially all of this income must be paid out to stockholders in the form of dividends, even if we have not collected any cash.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes

We have elected, and intend to qualify annually, to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that we distribute to our stockholders from our tax earnings and profits. To obtain and maintain our RIC tax treatment, we must, among other things, meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and distribute annually at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. ~~Uncertainty~~The continued uncertainty with respect to the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets, and the effects of this volatility could materially impact our market risks, including those listed below. For additional information concerning the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and our operating results, see Item 1A “Risk Factors -- We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. See “Risk Factors - Risks Relating to Debt Financing - We are currently operating in a period of capital markets disruptions and economic uncertainty. Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets, which may have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and operations.” in Part 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, ~~98.0%~~97.7% of our portfolio investments (based on fair value) paid floating interest rates, while ~~2.0%~~2.3% paid fixed interest rates and ~~13.1%~~13.3% were non-income producing investments while ~~86.9%~~86.7% were income producing investments. In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks have reduced certain interest rates and LIBOR has decreased. A prolonged reduction in interest rates will reduce our gross investment income and could result in a decrease in our net investment income if such decreases in LIBOR are not offset by a corresponding increase in the spread over LIBOR that we earn on any portfolio investments, a decrease in our operating expenses, including with respect to our income incentive fee, or a decrease in the interest rate of our floating interest rate liabilities tied to LIBOR. In contrast, a rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to any variable rate investments we hold and to declines in the value of any fixed rate investments we hold. In addition, a rise in interest rates may increase the likelihood that a portfolio company defaults on a loan. However, many of our variable rate investments provide for an interest rate floor, which may prevent our interest income from increasing until benchmark interest rates increase beyond a threshold amount. To the extent that a substantial portion of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest rates beyond this threshold would make it easier for us to meet or exceed the hurdle rate applicable to the subordinated incentive fee on income under the Investment Advisory Agreement we have entered into with SIC Advisors, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income and to the amount of incentive fees payable to SIC Advisors with respect to our increased pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Our interest expense will also be affected by changes in the published LIBOR rate in connection with the Alpine Credit Facility. See "Risks Relating to Debt Financing - Changes relating to the LIBOR calculation process may adversely affect the value of our portfolio of LIBOR-indexed, floating-rate debt securities” in "Item 1 A. Risk Factors" of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. We expect any future credit facilities, total return swap agreements or other financing arrangements that we or any of our subsidiaries may enter into will also be based on a floating interest rate. As a result, we are subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In periods of rising interest rates, when we or our subsidiaries have debt outstanding or financing arrangements in effect, our cost of funds would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we hold fixed rate investments.

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.

Based on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the following table shows the approximate annual impact on the change in net interest income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates, assuming no changes in our investment portfolio and capital structure:

We expect that our long-term investments will be financed primarily with equity and debt. If deemed prudent, we may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. During the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.

In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies-Valuation of Investments” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of 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

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. We are not currently party to any material legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the “Risk Factors” discussed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 19, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Other than the items disclosed below, there have been no material changes during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 to the risk factors discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our annual report on Form 10-K. Additional risks or uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

You will have limited opportunities to sell your shares and, to the extent you are able to sell your shares under our share repurchase program beginning in the second quarter of 2021, you may not be able to recover the amount of your investment in our shares.

Our share repurchase program includes numerous restrictions that limit your ability to sell your shares. At the discretion of our board of directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the sale of our investments as of the end of the applicable quarter to repurchase shares. We limit repurchases in each quarter to the lesser of (i) the number of shares of common stock that the Company can purchase with the proceeds received under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan from the prior quarter (the prior two quarters in the case of the first share repurchase offer for the quarter ending June 30, 2021); or (ii) 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters. To the extent that the number of shares put to us for repurchase exceeds the number of shares that we are able to purchase, we will repurchase shares on a pro rata basis, not on a first-come, first-served basis. Further, we will have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under federal law or Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency. These limits may prevent us from accommodating all repurchase requests made in any year. In addition, our board of directors may suspend, modify or discontinue the share repurchase program at any time. We will notify you of such developments: (i) in our periodic or current reports or (ii) by means of a separate mailing to you. Further, the share repurchase program may have many limitations and should not be relied upon as a method to sell shares promptly and at a desired price.

The timing of our repurchase offers pursuant to our share repurchase program may be at a time that is disadvantageous to our stockholders.

When we begin making quarterly repurchase offers pursuant to the share repurchase program, beginning in the second quarter of 2021, we may offer to repurchase shares at a price that is lower than the price that investors paid for shares in our offering. As a result, to the extent investors paid an offering price that includes the related sales load and to the extent investors have the ability to sell their shares pursuant to our share repurchase program, then the price at which an investor may sell shares, which will be at a price equal to our most recently disclosed net asset value per share immediately prior to the date of repurchase, may be lower than what an investor paid in connection with the purchase of shares in our offering.

We cannot predict how new tax legislation will affect us, our investments, or our shareholders, and any such legislation could adversely affect our business.

Legislative or other actions relating to taxes could have a negative effect on us. The rules dealing with U.S. federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury Department. The Biden Administration has proposed significant changes to the existing U.S. tax rules, and there are a number of proposals in Congress that would similarly modify the existing U.S. tax rules. The likelihood of any such legislation being enacted is uncertain, but new legislation and any U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions interpreting such legislation could significantly and negatively affect our ability to qualify for tax treatment as a RIC or the U.S. federal income tax consequences to us and our investors of such qualification, or could have other adverse consequences. Investors are urged to consult with their tax advisor regarding tax legislative, regulatory, or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our common stock.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In June 2013, we commenced a share repurchase program pursuant to which we conducted quarterly share repurchases, of up to 2.5% of the weighted average number of outstanding shares in any 3-month period or 10% of the weighted average number of outstanding shares in any 12-month period. The purpose of the share repurchase program was to allow stockholders to sell their shares back to us at a price equal to the most recently disclosed NAV per share of our common stock immediately prior to the date of repurchase. Shares were purchased from stockholders participating in the program on a pro rata basis. Unless our board of directors determined otherwise, the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year were limited to the proceeds received in association with the sale of shares of common stock under the distribution reinvestment plan.

Notwithstanding the suspension of the share repurchase program, our board of directors approved the repurchase of shares of our common stock from our stockholders who have requested repurchases in connection with such stockholder’s death or disability. ~~See Note 12~~

In addition, on April 28, 2021, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company intends to conduct quarterly share repurchases, beginning in the second quarter of 2021, of the lesser of: (i) the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, that the Company can purchase with the proceeds received under the DRIP from the prior quarter; or (ii) 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding in the prior four calendar quarters (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the first share repurchase offer for the quarter ending June 30, 2021, the Company intends to repurchase the number of Shares that the Company can purchase with the proceeds received under the DRIP from the prior two quarters. The purpose of the Share Repurchase Program is to allow stockholders to sell their shares of common stock back to the Company at a price equal to the most recently disclosed net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to the date of such share repurchase. Shares will be purchased from stockholders participating in the Share Repurchase Program on a pro rata basis. The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued by our ~~consolidated financial statements for more information.~~

During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased ~~2,451~~962,031 and 964,482 of shares of certain shareholders pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program and due to death or ~~disability.~~disability, respectively.

The Chapter 11 Case is captioned In re Medley LLC, No, 21-10526 (KBO) (Bankr. D. Del. Mar. 7, 2021).

In connection with the ~~commencement of the~~ Chapter 11 Case, on August 11, 2021 the Company entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) among the Company, Medley LLC, ~~disclosed in its pleadings~~Medley Capital LLC, and SIC Advisors, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to contribute $2.1 million, subject to certain conditions, to an employee compensation and retention plan (the “Compensation Plan”) to be established by Medley Capital LLC.

The Wells Notices also provided that the Staff’s recommendation may involve a civil injunctive action, public administrative proceeding, and/or cease-and-desist proceeding, and may seek remedies that include an injunction, a cease-and-desist order, disgorgement, pre-judgment interest, civil money penalties, censure, and limitations on activities or bars from association.

A Wells Notice is neither a formal charge of wrongdoing nor a final determination that the recipient has violated any law.
