Net Investment Income for the Quarter: Net Investment Income for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was $4.4 million, or $0.21 per share, as compared to $4.2 million, or $0.20 per share, for the prior year period, an increase in Net Investment Income of 5% and an increase of 5% per share. Net Investment Income increased primarily due to higher transaction fees received during the three months ended September 30, 2010 than during the prior year period.
Net Investment Income for the Fiscal Year: Net Investment Income for the year ended September 30, 2010 was $17.8 million, or $0.84 per share, as compared to $21.0 million, or $1.00 per share, for the prior year period, a decrease in Net Investment Income of 15% and a decrease of 16% per share. Net Investment Income decreased primarily due to a decline in investment income resulting from the repayment and sale of loans and lower transaction fees received, partially offset by a decline in incentive fees accrued during the year ended September 30, 2010 than during the prior year.
Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations for the Quarter: Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was $3.8 million, or $0.18 per share, as compared to a Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations of $3.4 million, or $0.16 per share, for the prior year period. The increase in Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations between the two periods was primarily due to the higher net investment income during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to the prior year period.
Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations for the Fiscal Year: Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations for the year ended September 30, 2010 was $16.4 million, or $0.78 per share, as compared to a Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations of $3.8 million, or $0.18 per share, for the prior year. The increase in Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations between the two years was primarily due to the lower net loss on the Company's investment portfolio during the year ended September 30, 2010. The Company recorded a net loss on investments, derivatives and borrowings under line of credit of $1.4 million for the year ended September 30, 2010, compared to a net loss of $17.2 million for the prior year.
Estimated Fair Value: The aggregate investment portfolio depreciated during the year ended September 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2010, the entire portfolio was fair valued at 86% of cost, as compared to 88% of cost at September 30, 2009.

Net asset value was $11.85 per share at September 30, 2010 as compared to $11.81 per share at September 30, 2009. At September 30, 2010, the Company had investments in 39 private companies with an aggregate cost basis of $298.2 million and an aggregate fair value of $257.1 million.

- Funded approximately $10.6 million of three new investments and $12.6 million of additional investments to existing portfolio companies, for an aggregate of $23.2 million;
- Received principal repayments of approximately $82.6 million, which included scheduled principal payments and full repayment from eight companies;
- Received proceeds of approximately $3.1 million from the sale of three portfolio companies and recorded a corresponding realized net loss of approximately $4.2 million;
- Wrote off approximately $2.9 million of an investment and recorded a corresponding realized net loss of approximately $2.9 million;
- Received approximately $1.9 million in success fees in connection with the payoff and refinancing of seven investments;
- Entered into a fourth amended and restated credit facility with Key Equipment Finance Company Inc., Branch Bank and Trust Company and ING Capital LLC for a $127 million line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), which matures on March 15, 2012, with a one year amortization period;

Comments from President and Chief Investment Officer Chip Stelljes: "During the quarter, we invested $10 million in one new investment and received proceeds from repayments of approximately $25.6 million, including the successful realization of two investments. With the currently outstanding balance on our $127 million line of credit of only $19.6 million, we are actively reviewing new investment opportunities, and we believe that we will be able to increase our new investment activity over the next twelve months."
Subsequent to September 30, 2010, the Company:
- Funded approximately $8.4 million of investments, which included $7 million for three new syndicated loans;
- Received approximately $1.8 million from scheduled and unscheduled loan repayments;
- Amended the Credit Facility on November 22, 2010 (the "Amendment Date"). Prior to the Amendment Date, advances under the Credit Facility bore interest at the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") subject to a minimum rate of 2.0%, plus 4.5% per annum, with a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on undrawn amounts. As of the Amendment Date, advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR subject to a minimum rate of 1.5%, plus 3.75% per annum, with a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on undrawn amounts when the facility is drawn more than 50.0% and 1.0% per annum on undrawn amounts when the facility is drawn less than 50.0%. In addition, effective as of the Amendment Date, the Company is no longer obligated to pay an annual minimum earnings shortfall fee to the committed lenders, which was calculated as the difference between the weighted average of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and 50.0% of the commitment amount of the Credit Facility, multiplied by 4.5% per annum, less commitment fees paid during the year. As of the Amendment Date, the Company paid $665,000, which represented the entirety of the minimum earnings shortfall fee; and
- Declared monthly cash distributions to stockholders of $0.07 per common share for each of the months of October, November and December 2010.
