(2) Includes 39,500 shares of the Issuer directly held by Michael S. Gross' profit sharing plan (the "Profit Sharing Plan"). Mr. Gross may be deemed to directly beneficially own these shares as the sole participant in the Profit Sharing Plan. In addition, the total includes 20,000 shares of the Issuer held by a grantor retained annuity trust setup by and for Mr. Gross (the "GRAT"), which Mr. Gross may be deemed to directly beneficially own as the sole trustee of the GRAT. Also includes 1,285,013 shares of the Issuer held by Solar Capital Investors, LLC ("Solar Capital I") and 715,000 shares of the Issuer held by Solar Capital Investors II, LLC ("Solar Capital II"), a portion of both of which may be deemed to be indirectly beneficially owned by Mr. Gross, Bruce J.

Mr. Gross disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the Issuer's securities directly held by Solar Capital I, Solar Capital II or the SCP Plan, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Gross is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or any other purpose.
