PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS – (CONTINUED)
March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009
(in thousands, except share data)

Endnote Explanations for the Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009


⁽¹⁾		The securities in which Prospect Capital Corporation (“we”, “us” or “our”) has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act.” These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

⁽²⁾		Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2010, two of our portfolio investments, Allied Defense Group, Inc. and Dover Saddlery, Inc., were publically traded and classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy established by Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). One of our portfolio investments, Lyondell, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy established by ASC 820. As of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, the fair value of our remaining portfolio investments was determined using significant unobservable inputs. ASC 820 classifies such inputs used to measure fair value as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. Our investments in money market funds are classified as Level 2. See Note 3 and Note 4 within the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

⁽³⁾		Security, or portion thereof, is held as collateral for the revolving credit facility (see Note 10). The market values of these investments at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009 were $437,159 and $434,069, respectively; they represent 60.7% and 67.2% of total investments at fair value, respectively.

⁽⁴⁾		Security, or portion thereof, has a floating interest rate. Stated interest rate was in effect at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009.

⁽⁵⁾		There are several entities involved in the Biomass investment. We own 100 shares of common stock in Worcester Energy Holdings, Inc. (“WEHI”), representing 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock. WEHI, in turn, owns 51 membership certificates in Biochips LLC (“Biochips”), which represents a 51% ownership stake.

		We own 282 shares of common stock in Worcester Energy Co., Inc. (“WECO”), which represents 51% of the issued and outstanding common stock. We own directly 1,665 shares of common stock in Change Clean Energy Inc. (“CCEI”), f/k/a Worcester Energy Partners, Inc., which represents 51% of the issued and outstanding common stock and the remaining 49% is owned by WECO. CCEI owns 100 shares of common stock in Precision Logging and Landclearing, Inc. (“Precision”), which represents 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock.

		During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we created two new entities in anticipation of the foreclosure proceedings against the co-borrowers (WECO, CCEI and Biochips) Change Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. (“CCEHI”) and DownEast Power Company, LLC (“DEPC”). We own 1,000 shares of CCEHI, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding stock, which in turn, owns a 100% of the membership interests in DEPC.

		On March 11, 2009, we foreclosed on the assets formerly held by CCEI and Biochips with a successful credit bid of $6,000 to acquire the assets. The assets were subsequently assigned to DEPC. WECO, CCEI and Biochips are joint borrowers on the term note issued to Prospect Capital. Effective July 1, 2008, this loan was placed on non-accrual status.

		Biochips, WECO, CCEI, Precision and WEHI currently have no material operations and no significant assets. As of June 30, 2009, our Board of Directors assessed a fair value of $0 for all of these equity positions and the loan position. We determined that the impairment of both CCEI and CCEHI as of June 30, 2009 was other than temporary and recorded a realized loss for the amount that the amortized cost exceeds the fair value at June 30, 2009. Our Board of Directors set the value of the remaining CCEHI investment at $1,928 and $2,530 as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively.

⁽⁶⁾		During the three months ended December 31, 2009, we created two new entities, Coalbed Inc. and Coalbed LLC, to foreclose on the outstanding senior secured loan and assigned rights and interests of Conquest Cherokee, LLC (“Conquest”), as a result of the deterioration of Conquest’s financial performance and inability to service debt payments. We own 1,000 shares of common stock in Coalbed Inc., representing 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock. Coalbed Inc., in turn owns 100% of the membership interest in Coalbed LLC.

		On October 21, 2009, Coalbed LLC foreclosed on the loan formerly made to Conquest. On January 19, 2010, as part of the Manx rollup, the Coalbed LLC assets and loan was assigned to Manx, the holding company (refer to footnote 12). As of March 31, 2010, our Board of Directors assessed a fair value of $2,547 for the loan position in Coalbed LLC.

⁽¹⁰⁾		Loan is with THS an affiliate of ICS.

⁽¹¹⁾		On June 30, 2008, we consolidated our holdings in four coal companies into Yatesville Coal Holdings, Inc. (“Yatesville”), and consolidated the operations under one management team. As part of the transaction, the debt that we held of C&A Construction, Inc. (“C&A”), Genesis Coal Corp. (“Genesis”), North Fork Collieries LLC (“North Fork”) and Unity Virginia Holdings LLC (“Unity”) were exchanged for newly issued debt from Yatesville, and our ownership interests in C&A, E&L Construction, Inc. (“E&L”), Whymore Coal Company Inc. (“Whymore”) and North Fork were exchanged for 100% of the equity of Yatesville. This reorganization allows for a better utilization of the assets in the consolidated group.

		At March 31, 2010 and at June 30, 2009, Yatesville owned 100% of the membership interest of North Fork. In addition, Yatesville held a $9,325 and $8,062, respectively, note receivable from North Fork as of those two respective dates.

		At March 31, 2010 and at June 30, 2009, we owned 96% and 87%, respectively, of the common stock of Genesis and held a note receivable of $20,897 and $20,802, respectively, as of those two respective dates.

		Yatesville held a note receivable of $4,261 from Unity at March 31, 2010 and at June 30, 2009.

		There are several entities involved in Yatesville’s investment in Whymore at June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, Yatesville owned 10,000 shares of common stock or 100% of the equity and held a $14,973 senior secured debt receivable from C&A, which owns the equipment. Yatesville owned 10,000 shares of common stock or 100% of the equity of E&L, which leases the equipment from C&A, employs the workers, is listed as the operator with the Commonwealth of Kentucky, mines the coal, receives revenues and pays all operating expenses. Yatesville owned 4,900 shares of common stock or 49% of the equity of Whymore, which applies for and holds permits on behalf of E&L. Yatesville also owned 4,285 Series A convertible preferred shares in each of C&A, E&L and Whymore. Whymore and E&L are guarantors under the C&A credit agreement with Yatesville.

		In August 2009, Yatesville sold its 49% ownership interest in the common shares of Whymore to the 51% holder of the Whymore common shares (“Whymore Purchaser”). All reclamation liability was transferred to the Whymore Purchaser. In September 2009, Yatesville completed an auction for all of its equipment.

		Yatesville currently has no material operations. As of March 31, 2010, our Board of Directors determined that the impairment of Yatesville was other than temporary and we recorded a realized loss for the amount that the amortized cost exceeds the fair value. Our Board of Directors set the value of the remaining Yatesville investment at $1,035 as of March 31, 2010.

⁽¹²⁾		On January 19, 2010, we modified the terms of our senior secured debt in AEH and Coalbed in conjunction with the formation of Manx Energy, a new entity consisting in the assets of AEH, Coalbed and Kinley Exploration. The assets of the three companies were brought under new common management. We funded $2,800 at closing to Manx to provide for working capital. A portion of our loans to AEH and Coalbed was exchanged for Manx preferred equity, while our AEH equity interest was converted into Manx common stock. There was no change to fair value at the time of restructuring, and we continue to fully reserve any income accrued for Manx.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2010

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

Note 1. Organization

References herein to “we”, “us” or “our” refer to Prospect Capital Corporation (“Prospect”) and its subsidiary unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

We were formerly known as Prospect Energy Corporation, a Maryland corporation. We were organized on April 13, 2004 and were funded in an initial public offering (“IPO”), completed on July 27, 2004. We are a closed-end investment company that has filed an election to be treated as a Business Development Company (“BDC”), under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we have qualified and have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. We invest primarily in senior and subordinated debt and equity of companies in need of capital for acquisitions, divestitures, growth, development, project financings, recapitalizations, and other purposes.

On May 15, 2007, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Prospect Capital Funding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, for the purpose of holding certain of our loan investments in the portfolio which are used as collateral for our credit facility.

Note 2. Patriot Acquisition

On December 2, 2009, we acquired the outstanding shares of Patriot Capital Funding, Inc. (“Patriot”) common stock for $201,083. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Patriot common shareholders received 0.363992 shares of our common stock for each share of Patriot common stock, resulting in 8,444,068 shares of common stock being issued by us. In connection with the transaction, we repaid all the outstanding borrowings of Patriot, in compliance with the merger agreement.

On December 2, 2009, Patriot made a final dividend payment equal to its undistributed net ordinary income and capital gains of $0.38 per share. In accordance with a recent IRS revenue procedure, the dividend was paid 10% in cash and 90% in newly issued shares of Patriot’s common stock. The exchange ratio was adjusted to give effect to the final income distribution.

The merger has been accounted for as an acquisition of Patriot by Prospect in accordance with acquisition method of accounting as detailed in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The fair value of the consideration paid was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the date of acquisition. As described in more detail in ASC 805, goodwill, if any, would have been recognized as of the acquisition date, if the consideration transferred exceeded the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeded the fair value of the consideration transferred, and we recognized the excess as a gain. A gain of $5,714 was recorded by Prospect in the quarter ended December 31, 2009 related to the acquisition of Patriot. The acquisition of Patriot was negotiated in July 2009 with the purchase agreement being signed on August 3, 2009. Between July 2009 and December 2, 2009, our valuation of certain of the investments acquired from Patriot increased due to market improvement, which resulted in the recognition of the gain at closing.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as summarized in the following table:


Cash (to repay Patriot debt)	$	107,313
Cash (to fund purchase of restricted stock from former Patriot employees)		970
Common stock issued ⁽¹⁾		92,800

Total purchase price		201,083

Assets acquired:
Investments ⁽²⁾		207,126
Cash and cash equivalents		1,697
Other assets		3,859

Assets acquired		212,682
Other liabilities assumed		(5,885	)

Net assets acquired		206,797

Preliminary gain on Patriot acquisition ⁽³⁾	$	5,714


⁽¹⁾		The value of the shares of common stock exchanged with the Patriot common shareholders was based upon the closing price of our common stock on December 2, 2009, the price immediately prior to the closing of the transaction.

⁽²⁾		The fair value of Patriot’s investments were determined by the Board of Directors in conjunction with an independent valuation agent. This valuation resulted in a purchase price which was $98,150 below the amortized cost of such investments. For those assets which are performing, Prospect will record the accretion to par value in interest income over the remaining term of the investment.

⁽³⁾		The preliminary gain has been determined based upon the estimated value of certain liabilities which are not yet settled. Any changes to such accruals will be recoded in future periods as an adjustment to such gain. We do not believe such adjustments will be material.

Preliminary Condensed Statement of Net Assets Acquired

The following condensed statement of net assets acquired reflects the preliminary values assigned to Patriot’s net assets as of the acquisition date, December 2, 2009.


Investment securities	$	207,126
Cash and cash equivalents		1,697
Other assets		3,859

Total assets		212,682

Other liabilities		(5,885	)

Preliminary fair value of net assets acquired	$	206,797

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to be indicative of actual financial position or results of our operations had the Patriot acquisition actually been consummated at the beginning of each period presented. Certain one-time charges have been eliminated. The pro forma adjustments reflecting the allocation of the purchase price of Patriot and the gain of $5,714 recognized on the Patriot Acquisition have been eliminated from all periods presented. Management expects to realize net operating synergies from this transaction. The pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the potential impact of these synergies and does not reflect any impact of additional accretion which would have been recognized on the transaction, except for that which was recorded after the transaction was consummated on December 2, 2009.

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies

The following are significant accounting policies consistently applied by us:

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim financial statements, which are not audited, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X, as appropriate.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of GAAP financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, creditworthiness of our portfolio companies and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material.

Basis of Consolidation

Under the 1940 Act rules, the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us. Our financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of Prospect Capital Funding, LLC, our only wholly-owned, closely-managed subsidiary that is also an investment company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Investment Classification

We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. We classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person.

Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments in other, non-security financial instruments are recorded on the basis of subscription date or redemption date, as applicable. Amounts for investments recognized or derecognized but not yet settled are reported as receivables for investments sold and payables for investments purchased, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Investment Risks

The Company’s investments are subject to a variety of risks. Those risks include the following:

Market Risk

Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by a change in the fair value of the financial instrument.

Credit Risk

Credit risk represents the risk that the Company would incur if the counterparties failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their agreements with the Company.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk represents the possibility that the Company may not be able to rapidly adjust the size of its positions in times of high volatility and financial stress at a reasonable price.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk represents a change in interest rates, which could result in an adverse change in the fair value of an interest-bearing financial instrument.

Prepayment Risk

Most of the Company’s debt investments allow for prepayment of principal without penalty. Downward changes in interest rates may cause prepayments to occur at a faster than expected rate, thereby effectively shortening the maturity of the security and making the security less likely to be an income producing instrument.

Investment Valuation

Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations.

For most of our investments, market quotations are not available. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

	1)		Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with the independent valuation firm;

	2)		the independent valuation firm engaged by our Board of Directors conducts independent appraisals and makes their own independent assessment;

	3)		the audit committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses the preliminary valuation of our Investment Adviser and that of the independent valuation firm; and

	4)		the Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firm and the audit committee.

Investments are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted) calculated based on an appropriate discount rate. The measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, the principal market and enterprise values, among other factors.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. We adopted ASC 820 on a prospective basis beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The changes to GAAP from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, framework for measuring fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by other standards. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted.

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC Subtopic 820-10-65, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“ASC 820-10”). This update provides further clarification for ASC 820 in markets that are not active and provides additional guidance for determining when the volume of trading level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased and for identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. ASC 820-10-65 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 820-10-65 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010, did not have any effect on our net asset value, financial position or results of operations as there was no change to the fair value measurement principles set forth in ASC 820.

Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, FASB issued ASC Subtopic 820-10-05-1, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASC 820-10-05-1”). ASC 820-10-05-1 permits an entity to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many of assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. We adopted this statement on July 1, 2008 and have elected not to value other assets and liabilities at fair value as would be permitted by ASC 820-10-05-1.

Revenue Recognition

Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, closing and/or commitment fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Accretion of such purchase discounts or premiums is calculated by the effective interest method as of the purchase date and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties and unamortized loan origination, closing and commitment fees are recorded as interest income. The purchase discount for portfolio investments acquired from Patriot was determined based on the difference between par value and fair market value as of December 2, 2009, and will continue to accrete until maturity or repayment of the respective loans.

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Structuring fees and similar fees are recognized as income as earned, usually when paid. Structuring fees, excess deal deposits, net profits interests and overriding royalty interests are included in other income.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 90 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Accrued interest is generally reversed 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. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current.

Federal and State Income Taxes

We have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gain to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.

If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual taxable income in the calendar year it is earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual taxable income exceeds the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income.

We adopted FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are ‘‘more-likely-than-not’’ of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of ASC 740 was applied to all open tax years as of July 1, 2007. The adoption of ASC 740 did not have an effect on our net asset value, financial condition or results of operations as there was no liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no change to our beginning net asset value. As of March 31, 2010 and for the three and nine months then ended, we did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

Dividends and Distributions

Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount, if any, to be paid as a dividend or distribution is approved by our Board of Directors each quarter and is generally based upon our management’s estimate of our earnings for the quarter. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.

Financing Costs

We record origination expenses related to our credit facility as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the effective interest method over the stated life of the facility.

We record registration expenses related to shelf filings as prepaid assets. These expenses consist principally of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registration fees, legal fees and accounting fees incurred. These prepaid assets will be charged to capital upon the receipt of an equity offering proceeds or charged to expense if no offering completed.

Guarantees and Indemnification Agreements

We follow FASB ASC 460, Guarantees (“ASC 460”). ASC 460 elaborates on the disclosure requirements of a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, for those guarantees that are covered by ASC 460, the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees. ASC 460 did not have a material effect on the financial statements. Refer to Note 4, Note 8 and Note 12 for further discussion of guarantees and indemnification agreements.

Per Share Information

Net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. Diluted net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations per share are not presented as there are no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”). ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The standard, which includes a new required disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. We evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after March 31, 2010 up through the date we issued the accompanying financial statements. During this period, we did not have any material recognizable subsequent events other than those disclosed in our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105”), which establishes the FASB Codification which supersedes all existing accounting standard documents and will become the single source of authoritative non-governmental U.S. GAAP. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification did not change GAAP but reorganizes the literature. ASC 105 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We have conformed our financial statements and related Notes to the new Codification.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 860, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — an amendment to FAS 140 (“ASC 860”). ASC 860 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets: the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows: and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. ASC 860 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Our management does not believe that the adoption of the amended guidance in ASC 860 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 is intended to (1) address the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in ASC 860, and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provided timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. ASC 810 is effective as of the beginning of our first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Our management does not believe that the adoption of the amended guidance in ASC 860 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, to amend FASB Accounting Standards Codification ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), to clarify how entities should estimate the fair value of liabilities. ASC 820, as amended, includes clarifying guidance for circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market is not available, the effect of the existence of liability transfer restrictions, and the effect of quoted prices for the identical liability, including when the identical liability is traded as an asset. We adopted ASU 2009-05 effective October 1, 2009. The amended guidance in ASC 820 does not have a significant effect on our financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-12, Measuring Fair Value of Certain Investments (“ASU 2009-12”). This update provides further amendments to ASC 820 to offer investors a practical expedient for measuring the fair value of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share. Specifically, measurement using net asset value per share is reasonable for investments within the scope of ASU 2009-12. We adopted ASU 2009-12 effective October 1, 2009. The amended guidance in ASC 820 does not have a significant effect on our financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 amends ASC 820-10 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure about purchase, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Our management does not believe that the adoption of the amended guidance in ASC 820-10 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855) — Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements (“ASU 2010-09”), which amends ASC Subtopic 855-10. ASU 2010-09 requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASC 2010-09 was effective upon issuance. The adoption of this standard had no effect on our results of operation or our financial position.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-10, Consolidation (Topic 810) - Amendments for Certain Investments Funds (“ASU 2010-10”), which defers the application of the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 for certain investments funds. The disclosure requirements continue to apply to all entities. ASU 2010-10 is effective as of the beginning of the first annual period that begins after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that first annual period. Our management does not believe that the adoption of the amended guidance in ASU 2010-10 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.

⁽¹⁾		Relates to assets held at March 31, 2010

At March 31, 2010, eight loan investments were on non-accrual status: Deb Shops, Inc., ICS, Iron Horse, Nupla, Manx, Sidump’r, Wind River Resources Corp. and Wind River II Corp. (“Wind River”), and Yatesville. At June 30, 2009, five loan investments were on non-accrual status: Appalachian Energy Holdings, LLC (“AEH”), Coalbed LLC./Coalbed Inc. (“Coalbed”), ICS, Wind River and Yatesville. The loan principal of these loans amounted to $143,910 and $92,513 as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. The fair values of these investments represent approximately 5.6% and 7.3% of our net assets as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the income forgone as a result of not accruing interest on non-accrual debt investments amounted to $4,027 and $3,940, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the income forgone as a result of not accruing interest on non-accrual debt investments amounted to $16,604 and $11,270, respectively.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, we discontinued operations at Yatesville. At December 31, 2009, consistent with the decision to discontinue operations, we determined that the impairment of Yatesville was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized loss of $51,228 for the amount that the amortized cost exceeded the fair market value. As of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, Yatesville is valued at $1,035 and $13,097, respectively.

GSHI has indemnified us against any legal action arising from its investment in Gas Solutions, LP. We have incurred approximately $2,093 from the inception of the investment in GSHI through March 31, 2010 for fees associated with a legal action, and GSHI has reimbursed us for the entire amount. Of the $2,093 reimbursement, $67 and $249 was reflected as dividend income: control investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009, respectively. There were no such legal fees incurred or reimbursed for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010. Additionally, certain other expenses incurred by us which are attributable to GSHI have been reimbursed by GSHI and are reflected as dividend income: control investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, such reimbursements totaled as $527 and $1,878, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, such reimbursements totaled as $2,558 and $5,386, respectively.

The original cost basis of debt placements and equity securities acquired (including purchases of portfolio investments, follow-on investments and payment-in-kind interest) totaled to approximately $59,311 and $6,356 during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. These placements and acquisitions totaled to approximately $275,815 and $90,376 during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The $275,815 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 includes $207,126 of portfolio investments acquired from Patriot. Debt repayments and sales of equity securities with a cost basis of approximately $26,603 and $10,782 were received during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. These repayments and sales amounted to $96,338 and $22,198 during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we restructured our loans to Aircraft Fasteners International, LLC, Prince Mineral Company, Inc. and R-O-M Corporation. The revised terms were more favorable than the original terms and increased the present value of the future cash flows. In accordance with ASC 320-20-35 the cost basis of the new loans were recorded at par value, which included $6,735 of accelerated original purchase discount recognized as interest income.

Note 5. Other Investment Income

Other investment income consists of the gain on our acquisition of Patriot, structuring and amendment fees, overriding royalty interests, settlement of net profit interests, deal deposits, administrative agent fee, and other miscellaneous and sundry cash receipts.

⁽¹⁾		On March 17, 2010, we established an at-the-market program through which we may sell, from time to time and at our sole discretion, 8,000,000 shares of our common stock. Through this program we issued 811,500 shares of our common stock at an average price of $12.60 per share, raising $10,230 of gross proceeds, from March 23, 2010 through March 31, 2010.

⁽²⁾		Concurrent with the sale of these shares, we entered into a registration rights agreement in which we granted the purchasers certain registration rights with respect to the shares. We have filed with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form N-2 which has been declared effective by the SEC.

Our shareholders’ equity accounts at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009 reflect cumulative shares issued as of those respective dates. Our common stock has been issued through public offerings, a registered direct offering, private offerings, the exercise of over-allotment options on the part of the underwriters, our dividend reinvestment plan and business combinations. When our common stock is issued, the related offering expenses have been charged against paid-in capital in excess of par. All underwriting fees and offering expenses were borne by us.

On December 2, 2009, we issued 8,444,068 shares of common stock to acquire Patriot. This transaction is described in further detail in Note 2.

On July 20, 2009, October 19, 2009 and January 25, 2010, we issued shares of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan of 297,274 shares, 233,523 shares and 236,985 shares, respectively.

On March 4, 2010, our Registration Statement on Form N-2 was declared effective by the SEC. Under this Shelf Registration Statement, we can issue up to $489,770 of additional equity securities as of March 31, 2010.

On October 9, 2008, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan under which we may repurchase up to $20,000 of our common stock at prices below our net asset value as reported in our financial statements published for the year ended June 30, 2008. We have not made any purchases of our common stock during the period from October 9, 2008 to March 31, 2010 pursuant to this plan.

Note 8. Related Party Agreements and Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

We have entered into an investment advisory and management agreement with Prospect Capital Management (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) under which the Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Investment Adviser: (i) determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes, (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments we make (including performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies); and (iii) closes and monitors investments we make.

Prospect Capital Management’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its services to us are not impaired. For providing these services the Investment Adviser receives a fee from us, consisting of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2.00% on our gross assets (including amounts borrowed). For services currently rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter.

The total base management fees incurred to the favor of the Investment Adviser for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 were $3,576, and $2,977, respectively. The fees incurred for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 were $9,962, and $8,740, respectively.

The incentive fee has two parts. The first part, the income incentive fee, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees and other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement described below, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment in kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized).

The net investment income used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the gross assets used to calculate the 2.00% base management fee. We pay the Investment Adviser an income incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

•

no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate;

•

100.00% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate); and

•

20.00% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate).

These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.

The second part of the incentive fee, the capital gains incentive fee, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 20.00% of our realized capital gains for the calendar year, if any, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation at the end of such year. In determining the capital gains incentive fee payable to the Investment Adviser, we calculate the aggregate realized capital gains, aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate unrealized capital depreciation, as applicable, with respect to each investment that has been in its portfolio. For the purpose of this calculation, an “investment” is defined as the total of all rights and claims which maybe asserted against a portfolio company arising from our participation in the debt, equity, and other financial instruments issued by that company. Aggregate realized capital gains, if any, equal the sum of the differences between the aggregate net sales price of each investment and the aggregate cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate realized capital losses equal the sum of the amounts by which the aggregate net sales price of each investment is less than the aggregate cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate unrealized capital depreciation equals the sum of the differences, if negative, between the aggregate valuation of each investment and the aggregate cost basis of such investment as of the applicable calendar year-end. At the end of the applicable calendar year, the amount of capital gains that serves as the basis for our calculation of the capital gains incentive fee involves netting aggregate realized capital gains against aggregate realized capital losses on a since-inception basis and then reducing this amount by the aggregate unrealized capital depreciation. If this number is positive, then the capital gains incentive fee payable is equal to 20.00% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains incentive fees paid since inception.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, income incentive fees of $4,744 and $2,930, respectively, were incurred. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, income incentive fees of $12,054 and $11,795, respectively, were incurred. No capital gains incentive fees were incurred for the three or nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009.

Administration Agreement

We have also entered into an Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration, LLC (“Prospect Administration”) under which Prospect Administration, among other things, provides (or arranges for the provision of) administrative services and facilities for us. For providing these services, we reimburse Prospect Administration for our allocable portion of overhead incurred by Prospect Administration in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the costs of our chief compliance officer and chief financial officer and their respective staffs. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the reimbursement was approximately $840 and $588, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the reimbursement was approximately $2,520 and $1,764, respectively. Under this agreement, Prospect Administration furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Prospect Administration also performs, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, Prospect Administration assists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. Under the Administration Agreement, Prospect Administration also provides on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. Prospect Administration is a wholly owned subsidiary of our Investment Adviser.

The Administration Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, Prospect Administration and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of Prospect Administration’s services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for us.

Prior to July 1, 2009, Prospect Administration, pursuant to the approval of our Board of Directors, engaged Vastardis Fund Services LLC (“Vastardis”) to serve as our sub-administrator to perform certain services required of Prospect Administration. Under the sub-administration agreement, Vastardis provided us with office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Vastardis also conducted relations with custodians, depositories, transfer agents, dividend disbursing agents, other stockholder servicing agents, accountants, attorneys, underwriters, brokers and dealers, corporate fiduciaries, insurers, banks and such other persons in any such other capacity deemed to be necessary or desirable. Vastardis provided reports to the Administrator and the Directors of its performance of obligations and furnished advice and recommendations with respect to such other aspects of our business and affairs as it shall determine to be desirable. Under the sub-administration agreement, Vastardis also provided the service of William E. Vastardis as our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). We compensated Vastardis for providing us these services by the payment of an asset-based fee with a $400 annual minimum, payable monthly. Our service agreement was amended on September 28, 2008 so that Mr. Vastardis no longer served as our CFO effective as of November 11, 2008. At that time, Brian H. Oswald, a managing director at Prospect Administration, assumed the role of CFO.

We terminated our agreement with Vastardis to provide sub-administration services effective June 30, 2009. We entered into a new consulting services agreement for the period from July 1, 2009 until the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2009. We paid Vastardis a total of $30 for services rendered in conjunction with preparation of Form 10-K under the new agreement. This amount was accrued during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. All services previously provided by Vastardis were assumed by Prospect Administration beginning on July 1, 2009 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 and thereafter.

Managerial Assistance

As a business development company, we offer, and must provide upon request, managerial assistance to certain of our portfolio companies. This assistance could involve, among other things, monitoring the operations of our portfolio companies, participating in board and management meetings, consulting with and advising officers of portfolio companies and providing other organizational and financial guidance. We billed $216 and $215 of managerial assistance fees for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively, of which $188 and $60 remains on the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2010, and June 30, 2009, respectively. We billed $676 and $431 of managerial assistance fees for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. These fees are paid to the Administrator when received. We simultaneously accrue a payable to the Administrator for the same amounts, which remain on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Note 10. Revolving Credit Agreements

On June 6, 2007, we, through a consolidated wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote, special purpose subsidiary of ours, closed on a $200,000 three-year revolving credit facility (as amended on December 31, 2007) with Rabobank Nederland (“Rabobank”) as administrative agent and sole lead arranger (the “Rabobank Facility”). Until November 14, 2008, interest on the Rabobank Facility was charged at LIBOR plus 175 basis points; thereafter, under the terms of a commitment letter with Rabobank to arrange and structure a new rated credit facility, we agreed to an immediate increase in the current borrowing rate on the Rabobank Facility to LIBOR plus 250 basis points. Additionally, Rabobank charged a fee on the unused portion of the facility. This fee is assessed at the rate of 37.5 basis points per annum of the amount of that unused portion.

On June 25, 2009, we completed a first closing on an expanded $250,000 revolving credit facility (the “Syndicated Facility”). The new Syndicated Facility, which had $210,000 and $175,000 total commitments as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively, includes an accordion feature which allows the Syndicated Facility to accept up to an aggregate total of $250,000 of commitments. The revolving period extends through June 24, 2010. If not renewed or extended by the participant banks, a one year amortization period would commence whereby we may not borrow additional funds. Thereafter for ten years, all principal, interest and fee payments received in conjunction with collateral pledged to the Syndicated Facility, less a monthly servicing fee payable to us, are required to be used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Syndicated Facility. Any remaining outstanding borrowings would be due and payable on the commitment termination date, which is currently June 24, 2011. On April 30, 2010, we entered into an engagement with Rabobank and Key Equipment Finance, Inc. to syndicate and Rabobank to structure a new syndicated credit facility.

The Syndicated Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements. The Syndicated Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the Syndicated Facility. The Syndicated Facility also requires the maintenance of a minimum liquidity requirement. At March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants.

Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is one-month LIBOR plus 400 basis points, subject to a minimum Libor floor of 200 basis points. Additionally, the banks charge a fee on the unused portion of the credit facility equal to 100 basis points. As of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, we had $54,200 and $124,800 outstanding under our credit facility, respectively. As of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, $62,457 and $946 was available to us for additional borrowing under our credit facility, respectively. As we make additional investments which are eligible to be pledged under the credit facility, we will generate additional availability to the extent such investments are eligible to be placed into the borrowing base. At March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, the investments used as collateral for the Syndicated Facility had an aggregate market value of $437,159 and $434,069, which represents 67.3% and 81.5% of net assets, respectively.

In connection with the origination and amendment of the Syndicated Facility, we incurred approximately $9,847 of fees which are being amortized over the term of the facility.

Note 11. Merger Proposal to Allied Capital Corporation

In January 2010, we delivered a proposal letter to Allied Capital Corporation (“Allied”) noting our opposition to Allied’s proposed merger with Ares Capital Corporation (“Ares”) and containing an offer to acquire each outstanding Allied share in exchange for 0.385 of a share of our common stock. Allied expressed that our offer did not constitute a “Superior Proposal” as defined in their Merger Agreement with Ares and declined our January 2010 offer. In February 2010, we increased our offer to 0.4416 of a share of our common stock. This final offer was also declined by Allied. On March 5, 2010, following Allied’s announcement of a special dividend to shareholders, we terminated our solicitation in opposition of the proposed merger with Ares. We incurred $925 of administrative and legal expense for advice relating to this potential acquisition for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Note 12. Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Risks

From time to time, we provide guarantees for portfolio companies for payments to counterparties, usually as an alternative to investing additional capital. We provide indemnifications to Prospect Administration in accordance with our respective agreements with that service provider. These indemnifications are described in further detail in Note 8. As of March 31, 2010, no other material contingency agreements exist.

As of March 31, 2010, we have $13,757 of undrawn revolver commitments to our portfolio companies.

Note 13. Litigation

From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.

On December 6, 2004, Dallas Gas Partners, L.P. (“DGP”) served us with a complaint filed November 30, 2004 in the U.S. District for the Southern District of Texas, Galveston Division. DGP alleges that DGP was defrauded and that we breached our fiduciary duty to DGP and tortiously interfered with DGP’s contract to purchase Gas Solutions, Ltd. (a subsidiary of our portfolio company, GSHI) in connection with our alleged agreement in September 2004 to loan DGP funds with which DGP intended to buy Gas Solutions, Ltd. for approximately $26,000. The complaint sought relief not limited to $100,000. On November 30, 2005, U.S. Magistrate Judge John R. Froeschner of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Galveston Division, issued a recommendation that the court grant our Motion for Summary Judgment dismissing all claims by DGP. On February 21, 2006, U.S. District Judge Samuel Kent of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Galveston Division issued an order granting our Motion for Summary Judgment dismissing all claims by DGP, against us. On May 16, 2007, the Court also granted us summary judgment on DGP’s liability to us on our counterclaim for DGP’s breach of a release and covenant not to sue. On January 4, 2008, the Court, Judge Melinda Harmon presiding, granted our motion to dismiss all DGP’s claims asserted against certain of our officers and affiliates. On August 20, 2008, Judge Harmon entered a Final Judgment dismissing all of DGP’s claims. DGP appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which affirmed the Final Judgment on June 24, 2009. DGP then moved for rehearing on July 8, 2009, which the Fifth Circuit denied on August 6, 2009. Our damage claims against DGP remain pending.

In May 2006, based in part on unfavorable due diligence and the absence of investment committee approval, we declined to extend a loan for $10,000 to a potential borrower (“plaintiff”). Plaintiff was subsequently sued by its own attorney in a local Texas court for plaintiff’s failure to pay fees owed to its attorney. In December 2006, plaintiff filed a cross-action against us and certain affiliates (the “defendants”) in the same local Texas court, alleging, among other things, tortuous interference with contract and fraud. We petitioned the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “District Court”) to compel arbitration and to enjoin the Texas action. In February 2007, our motions were granted. Plaintiff appealed that decision. On July 24, 2008, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment of the District Court. The arbitration commenced in July 2007 and concluded in late November 2007. Post-hearing briefings were completed in February 2008. On April 14, 2008, the arbitrator rendered an award in our favor, rejecting all of plaintiff’s claims. On April 18, 2008, we filed a petition before the District Court to confirm the award. On October 8, 2008, the District Court granted the Company’s petition to confirm the award, confirmed the awards and subsequently entered judgment thereon in favor of the Company in the amount of $2,288. After filing a defective notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on November 5, 2008, plaintiff’s counsel resubmitted a new notice of appeal on January 9, 2009. The plaintiff subsequently requested that the Company agree to stipulate to the withdrawal of plaintiff’s appeal to the Second Circuit. Such a stipulation was filed with the Second Circuit on or about April 14, 2009. Based on this stipulation, the Second Circuit issued a mandate terminating the appeal, which was transmitted to the District Court on April 23, 2009. Post-judgment discovery against plaintiff is continuing and we have filed a motion for sanctions against plaintiff’s counsel. Argument for the motion for sanctions was held on November 19, 2009 and a decision from the court is pending. On March 19, 2010, Judge Leonard Sands granted our motion for sanctions against plaintiff’s counsel.

Note 15. Subsequent Events

On April 23, 2010, we issued 248,731 shares of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan.

On April 7, 2010, we purchased $12,296 of second lien notes in Seaton Corporation, a human resources services company. The second lien notes bear interest in cash at the greater of 12.5% or Libor plus 9.0% and have a final maturity on March 14, 2011.

During the period from April 1, 2010 to May 10, 2010 we issued 2,634,700 shares of our common stock at an average price of $11.93 per share, and raised $31,432 of gross proceeds, under our at-the-market program.


Item 2.		Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data)

References herein to “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Prospect Capital Corporation and its subsidiary unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Historical results set forth are not necessarily indicative of our future financial position and results of operations.

Note on Forward Looking Statements

Some of the statements in this report constitute forward-looking statements, which relate to future events or our future performance or financial condition. The forward-looking statements contained herein involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to:

•

our future operating results;

•

our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;

•

the impact of investments that we expect to make;

•

our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;

•

the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest;

•

the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

•

our expected financings and investments;

•

the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; and

•

the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies.

We generally use words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including the factors set forth in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report.

We have based the forward-looking statements included in this report on information available to us on the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including any annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.

General

We are a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company that has filed an election to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or the 1940 Act. We invest primarily in senior and subordinated debt and equity of companies in need of capital for acquisitions, divestitures, growth, development, project financing and recapitalization. We work with the management teams or financial sponsors to seek investments with historical cash flows, asset collateral or contracted pro-forma cash flows.

We seek to be a long-term investor with our portfolio companies. From our July 27, 2004 inception to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, we invested primarily in industries related to the industrial/energy economy. Since then, we have widened our strategy to focus in other sectors of the economy and continue to diversify our portfolio holdings.

Patriot Acquisition

On December 2, 2009, Patriot made a final dividend equal to its undistributed net ordinary income and capital gains of $0.38 per share. In accordance with a recent IRS revenue procedure, the dividend was paid 10% in cash and 90% in newly issued shares of Patriot’s common stock. The exchange ratio was adjusted to give effect to the tax distribution.

The merger has been accounted for as an acquisition of Patriot by Prospect Capital Corporation (“Prospect”) in accordance with acquisition method of accounting as detailed in ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The fair value of the consideration paid was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as the date of acquisition. As described in more detail in ASC 805, goodwill, if any, would have been recognized as of the acquisition date, if the consideration transferred exceeded the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeded the fair value of the consideration transferred, and we recognized the excess as a gain. A gain of $5,714 was recorded by Prospect in the quarter ended December 31, 2009 related to the acquisition of Patriot. The acquisition of Patriot was negotiated in July 2009 with the purchase agreement being signed on August 3, 2009. Between July 2009 and December 2, 2009, our valuation of certain of the investments acquired from Patriot increased due to market improvement, which resulted in the recognition of the gain at closing.

The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as summarized in the following table:


Cash (to repay Patriot debt)	$	107,313
Cash (to fund purchase of restricted stock from former Patriot employees)		970
Common stock issued ⁽¹⁾		92,800

Total purchase price		201,083

Assets acquired:
Investments ⁽²⁾		207,126
Cash and cash equivalents		1,697
Other assets		3,859

Assets acquired		212,682
Other liabilities assumed		(5,885	)

Net assets acquired		206,797

Preliminary gain on Patriot acquisition ⁽³⁾	$	5,714


⁽¹⁾		The value of the shares of common stock exchanged with the Patriot common shareholders was based upon the closing price of our common stock on December 2, 2009, the price immediately prior to the closing of the transaction.

⁽²⁾		The fair value of Patriot’s investments were determined by the Board of Directors in conjunction with an independent valuation agent. This valuation resulted in a purchase price which was $98,150 below the amortized cost of such investments. For those assets which are performing, Prospect will record the accretion to par value in interest income over the remaining term of the investment.

⁽³⁾		The preliminary gain has been determined based upon the estimated value of certain liabilities which are not yet settled. Any changes to such accruals will be recoded in future periods as an adjustment to such gain. We do not believe such adjustments will be material.

During the period from the acquisition of Patriot on December 2, 2009 to March 31, 2010, and for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, we recognized $14,454 and $9,133, respectively, of interest income due to purchase discount accretion from the assets acquired from Patriot. Included in these amounts is $11,462 and $7,213 for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively, resulting from the acceleration of purchase discounts from the early repayments of three loans, three revolving lines of credit, sale of one investment position and restructuring of three loans.

Merger Discussions with Allied Capital Corporation

Market Conditions

While the economy continues to show signs of recovery from the deteriorating credit markets of 2008 and 2009, there is still a level of uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets. The growth and improvement in the capital markets that began during the second half of 2009 carried over into the first quarter of 2010. While encouraged by the signs of improvement, we operate in a challenging environment that is still recovering from a recession and financial services industry negatively affected by the deterioration of credit quality in subprime residential mortgages that spread rapidly to other credit markets. Market liquidity and credit quality conditions continue to remain weaker today than three years ago.

We believe that Prospect is well positioned to navigate through these adverse market conditions. As a business development company, we are limited to a maximum 1 to 1 debt to equity ratio, and as of March 31, 2010, we had $116,657 available under our credit facility, of which $54,200 was outstanding. Further, as we make additional investments that are eligible to be pledged under the credit facility, we will generate additional credit facility availability. The revolving period for our credit facility continues until June 25, 2010, with an amortization running to June 25, 2011, with interest distributions to us allowed. We expect to enter into a new extended three-year revolving facility prior to June 25, 2010. While we are optimistic and have made substantial progress, we cannot guarantee the completion of such extension.

We also continue to generate liquidity through public and private stock offerings. On July 7, 2009, we completed a public stock offering for 5,175,000 shares of our common stock at $9.00 per share, raising $46,575 of gross proceeds. On August 20, 2009 and September 24, 2009, we issued 3,449,686 shares and 2,807,111 shares, respectively, of our common stock at $8.50 and $9.00 per share, respectively, in private stock offerings, raising $29,322, and $25,264 of gross proceeds, respectively. Concurrent with the sale of these shares, we entered into a registration rights agreement in which we granted the purchasers certain registration rights with respect to the shares. Under the terms and conditions of the registration rights agreement, we filed with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form N-2 on November 6, 2009. Such amendment was declared effective by the SEC on November 9, 2009.

On March 17, 2010, we established an at-the-market program through which we may sell, from time to time and at our discretion, 8,000,000 shares of our common stock. An at-the-market offering is a registered offering by a publicly traded issuer of its listed equity securities selling shares directly into the market at market prices. We have engaged two broker-dealers to act as potential agents and sell our common stock directly into the market over a period of time. We currently pay a 2% commission to the broker-dealer on shares sold. Through this program we issued 811,500 shares of our common stock at an average price of $12.60 per share, raising $10,230 of gross proceeds, from March 23, 2010 through March 31, 2010. During the period from April 1, 2010 to May 10, 2010 we issued 2,634,700 shares of our common stock at an average price of $11.93 per share, and raised $31,432 of gross proceeds, under our at-the-market program.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires 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 materially. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes to the financial statements.

Basis of Consolidation

Under the 1940 Act rules, the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X, and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us. Our March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009 financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of Prospect Capital Funding, LLC, our only wholly-owned, closely-managed subsidiary that is also an investment company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Investment Classification

Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments in other, non-security financial instruments are recorded on the basis of subscription date or redemption date, as applicable. Amounts for investments recognized or derecognized but not yet settled are reported as Receivables for investments sold and Payables for investments purchased, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Investment Valuation

Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations.

1) Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with the independent valuation firm engaged by our Board of Directors;

2) the independent valuation firm conducts independent appraisals and makes their own independent assessment;

3) the audit committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses the preliminary valuation of our Investment Adviser and that of the independent valuation firm; and

4) the Board of Directors discusses the valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the independent valuation firm and the audit committee.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC” or “Codification”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. We adopted ASC 820 on a prospective basis beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The changes to GAAP from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, framework for measuring fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by other standards.

In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted.

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-65, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“ASC 820-10-65”). This update provides further clarification for ASC 820 in markets that are not active and provides additional guidance for determining when the volume of trading level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased and for identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. ASC 820-10-65 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 820-10-65 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010, did not have any effect on our net asset value, financial position or results of operations as there was no change to the fair value measurement principles set forth in ASC 820.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 amends ASC 820-10 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. Our management does not believe that the adoption of the amended guidance in ASC 820-10 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.

Federal and State Income Taxes

If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual taxable income in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual taxable income exceeds the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income.

Revenue Recognition

Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 90 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Unpaid accrued interest is generally reversed 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. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. As of March 31, 2010, approximately 5.8% of our net assets are in non-accrual status.

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Statement of Assets and Liabilities Overview

During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, net assets have increased by $116,890 from $532,596 as of June 30, 2009 to $649,486 as of March 31, 2010. This net increase in assets primarily resulted from $208,306 of capital share transactions including 8,444,068 of shares issued in conjunction with the Patriot Acquisition, offset by $94,125 in dividends declared to our stockholders. During this nine month period we recognized net investment income of $48,217, a decrease in net assets due to realized losses of $51,231 and an increase in net assets due to changes in unrealized depreciation of investments of $5,723.

The aggregate fair value of our portfolio investments was $697,001 and $547,168 as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, our net cost of investments increased by $144,110, or 27.1%, primarily from the acquisition of Patriot. At March 31, 2010, we were invested in 55 long-term portfolio investments.

The revised terms were more favorable than the original terms and increased the present value of the future cash flows. In accordance with ASC 320-20-35 the cost basis of the new loans were recorded at par value, which included $6,735 of accelerated original purchase discount recognized as interest income.

On September 30, 2008, we settled our net profits interests (“NPIs”) in IEC Systems LP (“IEC”) and Advanced Rig Services LLC (“ARS”) with the companies for a combined $12,576.

In conjunction with the NPI realization, we recognized other income of $12,576 and simultaneously reinvested the $12,576 as incremental senior secured debt in IEC and ARS. The incremental debt will amortize over the period ending November 20, 2010.

Investment Holdings

As of March 31, 2010, we continue to pursue our investment strategy. Despite our name change to “Prospect Capital Corporation” and the termination of our policy to invest at least 80% of our net assets in energy companies in May 2007, we currently have a concentration of investments in companies in the energy and energy related industries. This concentration continues to decrease as we make investments outside of the energy and energy related industries. Some of the companies in which we invest have relatively short or no operating histories. These companies are and will be subject to all of the business risk and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including the risk that these companies may not reach their investment objective or the value of our investment in them may decline substantially or fall to zero.

Our portfolio had an annualized current yield of 14.6% and 15.1% across all our long-term debt and certain equity investments as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. At March 31, 2010, this yield includes interest from all of our long-term investments as well as dividends from Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc. (“GSHI”). We expect the current yield to decline over time as we add to the portfolio. Monetization of other equity positions that we hold is not included in this yield calculation. In each of our portfolio companies, we hold equity positions, ranging from minority interests to majority stakes, which we expect over time to contribute to our investment returns. Some of these equity positions include features such as contractual minimum internal rates of returns, preferred distributions, flip structures and other features expected to generate additional investment returns, as well as contractual protections and preferences over junior equity, in addition to the yield and security offered by our cash flow and collateral debt protections.

We classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person.

As of March 31, 2010, we own controlling interests in Ajax, AWCNC, LLC, Borga, Inc., C&J, Change Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. (“CCEHI”), Fischbein, LLC (“Fischbein”), Freedom Marine Services LLC (“Freedom Marine”), GSHI, Integrated Contract Services, Inc. (“ICS”), Iron Horse, Manx, NRG Manufacturing, Inc. (“NRG”), Nupla Corporation, R-V Industries, Inc. (“R-V”), Sidump’r Trailer Company, Inc. and Yatesville. We also own an affiliated interest in Biotronic NeuroNetwork, Boxercraft Incorporated (“Boxercraft”), KTPS Holdings, LLC (“KTPS”), Miller Petroleum, Inc. (“Miller”), Smart, LLC and Sport Helmets Holdings, LLC (“Sport Helmets”).

Investment Valuation

In determining the fair value of our portfolio investments at March 31, 2010, the Audit Committee considered valuations from the independent valuation firm and from management having an aggregate range of $668,037 to $731,462, excluding money market funds.

In determining the range of value for debt instruments, management and the independent valuation firm generally shadow rated the investment and then, based upon the range of ratings, determined appropriate yields to maturity for a loan rated as such. A discounted cash flow analysis was then prepared using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, yielding the ranges. For equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying EBITDA multiples for similar recent investment sales and trading comparables. For stressed equity investments, a liquidation analysis was prepared.

The Board of Directors looked at several factors in determining where within the range to value such asset, including: recent operating and financial trends for the asset, independent ratings obtained from third parties and comparable multiples for recent sales and trading values of companies within the industry. The end result of these analyses was a total valuation of $697,001, excluding money market investments.

Our portfolio companies are generally lower middle market companies, outside of the financial sector, with less than $50,000 of annual EBITDA. We believe our market has experienced less volatility than others because we believe there are more buy and hold investors who own these less liquid investments.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, there has been a general improvement in the markets in which we operate, and market rates of interest negotiated for middle market loans have decreased.

Control investments often offer increased risk and reward over straight debt investments. Operating results and changes in market multiples can result in significant changes in values from quarter to quarter. Significant downturns in operations can further result in our looking to recoveries on sales of assets rather than the enterprise value of the investment. A few of the control investments in our portfolio are discussed below.

Ajax Rolled Ring & Machine, Inc.

We acquired a controlling equity interest in Ajax in a recapitalization of the company that was closed on April 4, 2008. We funded $22,000 of senior secured term debt, $11,500 of subordinated term debt and $6,300 of equity as of that closing. During 2010, we funded an additional $3,530 of secured subordinated debt to refinance a third-party revolver provider and provide working capital. As of March 31, 2010, we control 78.1% of the fully-diluted common and preferred equity.

Ajax forges seamless steel rings sold to various customers. The rings are used in a range of industrial applications, including in construction equipment and wind power turbines. Ajax’s business is cyclical, and the business experienced a significant decline in the first half of 2009 in light of the global macroeconomic crisis. The second half of 2009 and to-date 2010 show steady improvement versus the first half of 2009. At March 31, 2010, Ajax had a backlog of new business that would indicate continued improvement for 2010.

The Board of Directors decreased the fair value of our investment in Ajax to $28,442 as of March 31, 2010, a reduction of $14,877 from its amortized cost, compared to the $14,059 unrealized depreciation at December 31, 2009 and the $7,581 unrealized depreciation recorded at June 30, 2009.

Change Clean Energy Holdings Inc. and Change Clean Energy, Inc., f/k/a Worcester Energy Partners, Inc.

Change Clean Energy, Inc. (“CCEI”) is an investment, that we originated in September 2005, which owns and operated a biomass energy plant. In March 2009, CCEI ceased operations, as the business became uneconomic based on the cost of materials and the price being received for the electricity generated. During that quarter, we instituted foreclosure proceedings against the co-borrowers of our debt. In anticipation of such proceedings, CCEHI was established. On March 11, 2009, the foreclosure was completed and the assets were assigned to a wholly owned subsidiary of CCEHI. During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, we provided additional funding of $296 to CCEHI to fund ongoing operations. CCEI currently has no material operations. At June 30, 2009 we determined that the impairment at both CCEI and CCEHI was other than temporary and recognized a realized loss of $41,134, which was the amount by which the amortized cost exceeded the fair value. At March 31, 2010, our Board of Directors, under recommendation from senior management, has set the value of the CCEHI investment at $1,928, a reduction of $897 from its amortized cost after the recognized depreciation.

Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc.

GSHI is an investment that we completed in September 2004 in which we own 100% of the equity. GSHI is a midstream gathering and processing business located in east Texas. GSHI has improved its operations and we have experienced an increase in revenue, gross margin, and EBITDA (the later two metrics on both an absolute and a percentage of revenues basis) over the past five years.

During the past two years, we have held discussions with multiple interested purchasers for Gas Solutions. While we wish to unlock the value in Gas Solutions, we do not wish to enter into any agreement at any time that does not recognize the long term value we see in Gas Solutions. As a well-hedged midstream asset, which we expect to generate recurring cash flows to us, Gas Solutions is a valuable asset that we wish to sell at a value-maximizing price, or not at all. In addition, a sale of the assets, rather than the stock of GSHI, might result in a significant tax liability at the GSHI level which would need to be paid prior to any distribution to us.

In February 2010, we hired Robert Bourne as President and CEO of Gas Solutions. Mr. Bourne has over 30 years of experience in the midstream sector, including gathering and processing, gas purchasing, storing and trading; producer services; and business development mergers and acquisitions. He served most recently at Energy Transfer, where he managed Houston Pipeline, among other activities. Mr. Bourne is focusing on our upside plant projects and seeking new opportunities to help Gas Solutions grow beyond its existing footprint.

In April 2010, Gas Solutions purchased a series of propane puts with strike prices of $1.00 per gallon and $0.95 per gallon covering the periods May 1, 2010, through April 30, 2011, and May 1, 2011, through April 30, 2012, respectively. Gas Solutions hedged approximately 85% of its current exposure to natural gas liquids based on current plant volumes. These hedges will reduce the volatility on earnings associated with lower prices of natural gas liquids without limiting the upside from higher prices, helping GSHI to continue to generate sufficient cash flow to make interest and dividend payments.

In determining the value of GSHI, we have utilized two valuation techniques to determine the value of the investment. Our Board of Directors has determined the value to be $90,596 for our debt and equity positions at March 31, 2010 based upon a combination of a discounted cash flow analysis and a public comparables analysis. At March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, GSHI was valued $55,593, $50,184 and $50,184 above its amortized cost, respectively.

Integrated Contract Services, Inc.

ICS is an investment that we completed in April 2007. Prior to January 2009, ICS owned the assets of ESA Environmental Specialists, Inc. (“ESA”) and 100% of the stock of The Healing Staff (“THS”). ESA originally defaulted under our contract governing our investment in ESA, prompting us to commence foreclosure actions with respect to certain ESA assets in respect of which we have a priority lien. In response to our actions, ESA filed voluntarily for reorganization under the bankruptcy code on August 1, 2007. On September 20, 2007, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved a Section 363 Asset Sale from ESA to us. To complete this transaction, we contributed our ESA debt to a newly-formed entity, ICS, and provided funds for working capital on October 9, 2007. In return for the ESA debt, we received senior secured debt in ICS of equal amount to our ESA debt, preferred stock of ICS, and 49% of the ICS common stock. ICS subsequently ceased operations and assigned the collateral back to us. ICS is in default of both payment and financial covenants. During September and October 2007, we provided $1,170 to THS for working capital.

In January 2009, we foreclosed on the real and personal property of ICS. Through this foreclosure process, we gained 100% ownership of THS and certain ESA assets. Based upon an analysis of the liquidation value of the ESA assets and the enterprise value of THS, our Board of Directors determined the fair value of our investment in ICS to be $4,649 at March 31, 2010, a reduction of $12,003 from its amortized cost, compared to the $11,377 and $11,652 unrealized loss recorded at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, respectively.

Iron Horse Coiled Tubing, Inc.

Iron Horse is an investment that we completed in April 2006. Iron Horse had been a provider of coiled tubing subcontractor services prior to making a strategic decision in late 2007 to directly service natural gas and oil producers in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (“WCSB”) as a fracturing services provider. As a result of the business transition, the Company’s 2008 financial performance declined significantly from 2007 levels. Iron Horse completed its transition from a subcontractor to a direct service provider in 2009, but natural gas prices declined to trough levels due to the recession and heightened natural gas inventory levels. Since November 2009, Iron Horse has experienced increased activity in the WCSB and is now completing wells for several large producers in the WCSB.

Prior to December 31, 2007, we owned 8.5% of the common stock in Iron Horse. On December 31, 2007, we received an additional 50.3% of the common stock in Iron Horse, which increased our total ownership to 58.8%. Through a series of subsequent loans that were used to construct equipment and facilitate the transition from a subcontractor to a direct service provider, we secured an additional 21.0% of the common stock in Iron Horse in September 2008, which increased our total ownership to 79.8% of the common stock in Iron Horse.

Effective January 1, 2010, we restructured our senior secured and bridge loans to Iron Horse and we reorganized Iron Horse’s management structure. Our loans were replaced with three new tranches of senior secured debt and our total ownership of Iron Horse decreased to 70.4%. Our equity ownership will incrementally decrease as debt tranches are repaid upon maturity. There was no change to fair value at the time of restructuring, and we continue to fully reserve any income accrued for Iron Horse.

The Board of Directors wrote-down the fair value of our investment in Iron Horse to $12,325 as of March 31, 2010, a reduction of $8,677 from its amortized cost, compared to the $8,399 and $6,738 unrealized depreciation recorded at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, respectively.

Manx Energy, Inc.

On January 19, 2010, we modified the terms of our senior secured debt in AEH and Coalbed in conjunction with the formation of Manx Energy, a new entity consisting of the assets of AEH, Coalbed and Kinley Exploration. The assets of the three companies were combined under new common management. We funded $2,800 at closing to Manx to provide for working capital. A portion of our loans to AEH and Coalbed was exchanged for Manx preferred equity, while our AEH equity interest was converted into Manx common stock. There was no change to fair value at the time of restructuring, and we continue to fully reserve any income accrued for Manx.

The Board of Directors wrote-down the fair value of our investment in Manx to $6,196 as of March 31, 2010, a reduction of $12,074 from its amortized cost, compared to the $10,618 and $5,380 unrealized depreciation, for AEH and Coalbed combined, recorded at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, respectively.

Yatesville Coal Holdings, Inc.

All of our coal holdings have been consolidated under the Yatesville entity. Yatesville delivered improved operating results after the consolidation of the coal holdings, but the company mined its permitted reserves in December 2008 and has not produced meaningful revenues since then. We continue to evaluate strategies for Yatesville, such as soliciting indications of interest regarding a transaction involving part or all of recoverable reserves. During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, we provided additional funding of $3,376 to Yatesville to fund ongoing operations, including new permitting. During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, we discontinued operations at Yatesville. At December 31, 2009, our Board of Directors determined that, consistent with the decision to discontinue operations, the impairment of Yatesville was other than temporary, and we recorded a realized loss of $51,228, which was the amount that the amortized cost exceeded the fair value at December 31, 2009. Our Board of Directors set the value of the remaining Yatesville investment at $1,035, which represents the residual value of recoverable reserves, as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2010, a reduction of $12,062 from its value as of June 30, 2009.

Equity positions in the portfolio are susceptible to potentially significant changes in value, both increases as well as decreases, due to changes in operating results. Four control investments have experienced such volatility – C&J and Fischbein with improved operating results and NRG and R-V with declining operating results. The remaining four controlled investments have experienced operating challenges and have been valued at significant discounts to the original investment.

The affiliate investments continue to report strong operating results, with valuations increasing significantly for three investments – Boxercraft, KTPS and Sport Helmets. For one investment, Miller, we have held warrants in the company, and there has been a significant increase in the price per share of the company’s stock, driving the increase in the value of our investment.

With the non-control/non-affiliate investments, generally, there is less volatility related to our total investments because our equity positions tend to be smaller than with our control/affiliate investments, and debt investments are generally not as susceptible to large swings in value as equity investments. For debt investments, the fair value is limited on the high side to each loan’s par value, plus any prepayment premia that could be imposed. Many of the debt investments in this category have not experienced a significant change in value, as they were previously valued at or near par value. The exception to this categorization relates to investments which were acquired in the Patriot Acquisition, many of which were acquired at significant discounts to par value, and any changes in operating results or interest rates can have a significant effect on the value of such investments. Caleel + Hayden, LLC, Copernicus Group, Custom Direct, Inc., Impact Products, LLC, Mac & Massey Holdings, LLC and Prince experienced meaningful increases in valuations. AFI, H&M, and ROM experienced decreases in valuations due to declines in their operating results. Shearer’s completed a significant acquisition, which is driving the operating results and the increase in the value of the investment. The remaining investments did not experience significant changes in operations or valuation.

During the quarter, we restructured our loans to AFI, Prince and ROM. The revised terms were more favorable than the original terms and increased the present value of the future cash flows. The cost basis of the new loans were recorded at par value, which included $6,735 of accelerated original purchase discount recognized as interest income.

Capitalization

Our investment activities are capital intensive, and the availability and cost of capital is a critical component of our business. We capitalize our business with a combination of debt and equity. Our debt currently consists of a revolving credit facility availing us of the ability to borrow debt subject to borrowing base determinations, and our equity capital is currently comprised entirely of common equity.

On June 25, 2009, we completed a first closing on an expanded $250,000 syndicated revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). The new Facility, for which six lenders have closed on $210,000 to date, includes an accordion feature which allows the Facility to accept up to an aggregate total of $250,000 of commitments. The revolving period of the Facility extends through June 2010, with an additional one year amortization period after the completion of the revolving period. As of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, we had $54,200 and $124,800 of borrowings outstanding under our credit facility, respectively.

Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is one-month Libor plus 400 basis points, subject to a minimum Libor floor of 200 basis points after that date. The maintenance of this facility requires us to pay a fee for the amount not drawn upon. This fee assessed at the rate of 100 basis points per annum. The following table shows the facility amounts and outstanding borrowings at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009:


	As of March 31, 2010				As of June 30, 2009
	Facility		Amount		Facility		Amount
	Amount		Outstanding		Amount		Outstanding
Revolving Credit Facility	$	210,000	$	54,200	$	175,000	$	124,800

The following table shows the contractual maturity of our revolving credit facility at March 31, 2010:


	Payments Due By Period
	Less Than				More Than
	1 Year		1 - 3 Years		3 Years
Credit Facility Payable	$	54,200	$	—	$	—

During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, we completed public and private offerings, and implemented our at-the-market program, and raised $107,701 of additional equity by issuing 12,243,297 shares of our common stock diluting shareholder value by $0.82 per share. We also issued 8,444,068 shares to acquire Patriot increasing net asset value to shareholders by $0.14 per share. The following table shows the calculation of net asset value per share as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009:


	As of March 31, 2010		As of June 30, 2009
Net Assets	$	649,486	$	532,596
Shares of common stock outstanding		64,398,231		42,943,084

Net asset value per share	$	10.09	$	12.40

At March 31, 2010, we had 64,398,231 of our common stock issued and outstanding.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $25,940 and $15,331, respectively, representing $0.41 and $0.51 per share, respectively. We experienced a net realized and unrealized gain of $6,966, or approximately $0.11 per share in the three months ended March 31, 2010. This compares with the net realized and unrealized gain of $3,611 during the three months ended March 31, 2009, or approximately $0.12 per share.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $2,709 and $35,853, respectively, representing $0.05 and $1.21 per share, respectively. We experienced a net realized and unrealized loss of $45,508 or approximately $0.80 per share in the nine months ended March 31, 2010. This compares with the net realized and unrealized loss of $11,329 during the nine months ended March 31, 2009 or approximately $0.38 per share.

During the last quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 and the first three quarters of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, we have raised a significant amount of equity capital, which was used in part to fund the Patriot Acquisition, but has not yet been fully invested. As a result, our use of the credit facility has been less in 2010 and the excess cash on hand tends to depress our earnings per share. We continue to deploy our debt and equity raised into new investments.

To further illustrate the effects, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009, weighted average shares outstanding have increased from 29,971,508 to 63,659,663, or 112.4%, while the average debt principal of investments increased from $537,277 to $676,780, or 26.0%. Partially offsetting this effect on EPS is the increase in the weighted interest rate earning on debt investments from 12.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to 16.75% for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

While we seek to maximize gains and minimize losses, our investments in portfolio companies can expose our capital to risks greater than those we may anticipate. These companies are typically not issuing securities rated investment grade, have limited resources, have limited operating history, have concentrated product lines or customers, are generally private companies with limited operating information available and are likely to depend on a small core of management talents. Changes in any of these factors can have a significant impact on the value of the portfolio company.

Investment Income

We generate revenue in the form of interest income on the debt securities that we own, dividend income on any common or preferred stock that we own, and amortized loan origination fees on the structuring of new deals. Our investments, if in the form of debt securities, will typically have a term of one to ten years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. To the extent achievable, we will seek to collateralize our investments by obtaining security interests in our portfolio companies’ assets. We also may acquire minority or majority equity interests in our portfolio companies, which may pay cash or in-kind dividends on a recurring or otherwise negotiated basis. In addition, we may generate revenue in other forms including prepayment penalties and possibly consulting fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments are recognized as earned.

Investment income consists of interest income, including accretion of loan origination fees and prepayment penalty fees, dividend income and other income, including net profits interest, overriding royalties interest and structuring fees. The following table details the various components of investment income and the related levels of debt investments for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009:


	For The Three Months Ended						For The Nine Months Ended
	March 31,						March 31,
	2010			2009			2010			2009

Interest income	$	27,947		$	16,065		$	61,321		$	50,862
Dividend income		2,301			4,445			12,689			13,833
Other income		1,757			159			8,395			13,986

Total investment income	$	32,005		$	20,669		$	82,405		$	78,681


Average debt principal of investments	$	676,780		$	537,277		$	579,835		$	523,363

Weighted-average interest rate earned		16.75	%		12.13	%		14.09	%		12.95	%

Total investment income increased significantly from $20,669 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to $32,005 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This $11,336 increase is primarily due to the additional revenue generated from assets acquired in the Patriot acquisition. In conjunction with the refinancing of three assets, we recognized accelerated purchase discount accretion of $6,735 during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Total investment income has increased for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 from the amount reported for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. This $3,724 increase is primarily due to the additional revenue generated from assets acquired in the Patriot acquisition along with the $5,714 gain recognized from the Patriot acquisition, partially offset by increased forgone interest on non-accrual loans during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and the settlement of our net profits interests in IEC/ARS for $12,576 during the nine months ended March 31, 2009. During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, we recognized $16,604 of forgone interest on non-accrual loans compared to $11,270 during the nine months ended March 31, 2009. In conjunction with the refinancing of three assets and the repayment/sale of four other loans, we recognized accelerated purchase discount accretion of $11,075 during the nine months ended March 31, 2010.

Average principal balances of debt investments have increased from $537,277 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to $676,780 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, average principal balances of debt investments increased from $523,363 to $579,835, respectively. These increases are primarily due to the Patriot acquisition which resulted in an additional $289,030 of debt principal to our portfolio.

The weighted-average interest rate earned increased from 12.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to 16.75% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase is primarily the result of higher interest rates earned on the assets acquired in the Patriot acquisition (including discount accretion). For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, weighted-average interest rate earned increased from 12.95% to 14.09%, respectively. This increase is primarily the result of higher interest rates earned on the assets acquired in the Patriot acquisition (including discount accretion) offset by forgone interest on non-accrual loans. During the nine month period ended March 31, 2010, interest of $16,604 was forgone on non-accrual debt investments compared to $11,270 of forgone interest for the nine months ended March 31, 2009.

Operating Expenses

Our primary operating expenses consist of investment advisory fees (base management and income incentive fees), credit facility costs, legal and professional fees and other operating and overhead-related expenses. These expenses include our allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration under which Prospect Administration provides administrative services and facilities for us. Our investment advisory fees compensate our Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions in accordance with our Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration. Operating expenses were $13,031 and $8,949 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Operating expenses were $34,188 and $31,499 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively.

The base management fee was $3,576 and $2,977 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The base management fee was $9,962 and $8,740 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The increase in this expense for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010 is directly related to our growth in total assets.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, we incurred $4,744 and $2,930, respectively, of income incentive fees. The $1,814 increase in the income incentive fee for the respective three-month period is driven by an increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income from $14,650 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to $23,718 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily the result of additional investment income from the Patriot acquisition. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 we incurred $12,054 and $11,795, respectively, of income incentive fees.

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010, we incurred $2,111 and $5,480 of expenses related to our credit facility. This compares with expenses of $1,345 and $4,828 incurred during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009. These expenses are related directly to the leveraging capacity put into place for each of those periods and the levels of indebtedness actually undertaken during those quarters. The table below describes the various credit facility expenses and the related indicators of leveraging capacity and indebtedness during these periods.


	For The Three Months Ended						For The Nine Months Ended
	March 31,						March 31,
	2010			2009			2010			2009

Interest on borrowings	$	327		$	1,101		$	720		$	4,043
Amortization of deferred financing costs		1,322			180			3,428			540
Commitment and other fees		462			64			1,332			245

Total	$	2,111		$	1,345		$	5,480		$	4,828


Weighted-average debt outstanding	$	22,040		$	144,887		$	15,972		$	132,099

Weighted-average interest rate on borrowings		6.00	%		3.08	%		6.00	%		4.08	%

Facility amount at beginning of period	$	195,000		$	200,000		$	175,000		$	200,000

The increase in our interest rate incurred is primarily due to an increase of 150 basis points in our current borrowing rate effective June 25, 2009 and the concurrent introduction of a Libor floor at 200 basis points.

As our asset base has grown and we have added complexity to our capital raising activities, due, in part, to our assumption of the sub-administration role from Vastardis, we have commensurately increased the size of our administrative and financial staff, accounting for a significant increase in the overhead allocation from Prospect Administration. Over the last two years, Prospect Administration has added several additional staff members, including a senior finance professional, a controller, two corporate counsels and other finance professionals. As our portfolio continues to grow, we expect to continue to increase the size of our administrative and financial staff on a basis that provides increasing returns to scale. However, initial investments in administrative and financial staff may not provide returns to scale immediately, perhaps not until the portfolio increases to a greater size. Other allocated expenses from Prospect Administration have, as expected, increased alongside with the increase in staffing and asset base.

Total operating expenses, net of management fees and interest costs (“Other Operating Expenses”), were $2,600 and $1,697 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $6,692 and $6,136 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase in Other Operating Expenses during the three month period ended March 31, 2010 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009 is primarily the result of the costs incurred in connection with merger discussions with Allied Capital Corporation expensed in the 2010 period. These merger costs offset by the taxes paid in the prior year are the primary drivers of the increase during the nine month period. At December 31, 2008, we elected to retain a portion of our annual taxable income and accrued $533 for the excise tax that was paid with the filing of the return.

Net Investment Income, Net Realized (Loss) Gains, Increase in Net Assets from Net Change in Unrealized Depreciation/Appreciation and Net (Decrease) Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

Net investment income was $18,974 and $11,720 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. This $7,254 increase was due primarily to accelerated purchase discount accretion and an increase in interest bearing assets as a result of the Patriot acquisition, partially offset by increased advisory fees and a decrease in dividend income. Net investment income was $48,217 and $47,182 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively.

There were no significant realized gains or losses during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009. Net realized (loss) gains were ($51,231) and $1,661 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The net realized loss of $51,231 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 was due primarily to the impairment of Yatesville. See Investment Valuations for further discussion.

Net increase in net assets from changes in unrealized appreciation/depreciation was $6,968 and $3,611 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the $6,968 increase in net assets from the net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation was driven primarily by write-ups of our investments in GSHI, Prince and Miller, partially offset by unrealized depreciation of our investments in NRG and Freedom Marine. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the $3,611 increase in net assets from the net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation was driven primarily by write-ups of our investments in GSHI, H&M, and NRG which were partially offset by unrealized depreciation of our investments in Ajax, Deb Shops, Inc. (“Deb Shops”), CCEI, and Yatesville.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, net assets increased (decreased) from changes in unrealized appreciation/depreciation by $5,723 and $(12,990), respectively. The $18,713 increase occurring during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 was primarily attributable to unrealized depreciation recognized for our investments in Ajax, Freedom Marine, H&M, Manx, NRG, and R-V partially offset by the impairment of our investment in Yatesville of $51,228. The $12,990 decrease occurring during the nine months ended March 31, 2009 was attributable to unrealized depreciation recognized for our investments in Ajax, AEH, R-V, Deb Shops, CCEI, and Yatesville partially offset by write-ups of our investments in GSHI and NRG.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, our operating activities provided (used) $142,132 and ($25,552) of cash, respectively. Investing activities for the Patriot acquisition used $106,586 and zero for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Financing activities (used) provided ($24,239) and $25,446 of cash during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively, which included the payments of dividends of $59,467 and $32,413, during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively.

Our primary uses of funds have been to continue to invest in our investments in portfolio companies, to add new companies to our investment portfolio, acquire Patriot, repay outstanding borrowings and to make cash distributions to holders of our common stock.

We have and may continue to fund a portion of our cash needs through borrowings from banks, issuances of senior securities or secondary offerings. We may also securitize a portion of our investments in mezzanine or senior secured loans or other assets. Our objective is to put in place such borrowings in order to enable us to expand our portfolio. At March 31, 2010, we had $54,200 outstanding borrowings on our $210,000 revolving credit facility.

We also continue to generate liquidity through public and private stock offerings. On July 7, 2009 we completed a public stock offering for 5,175,000 shares of our common stock at $9.00 per share, raising $46,575 of gross proceeds. On August 20, 2009 and September 24, 2009, we issued 3,449,686 shares and 2,807,111 shares, respectively, of our common stock at $8.50 and $9.00 per share, respectively, in private stock offerings, raising $29,322, and $25,264 of gross proceeds, respectively. Concurrent with the sale of these shares, we entered into a registration rights agreement in which we granted the purchasers certain registration rights with respect to the shares. Under the terms and conditions of the registration rights agreement, we filed with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form N-2 on November 6, 2009. Such amendment was declared effective by the SEC on November 9, 2009.

On December 2, 2009 we acquired the outstanding shares of Patriot common stock for approximately $201,083. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Patriot common shareholders received 0.363992 shares of our common stock for each share of Patriot common stock, resulting in 8,444,068 shares of common stock being issued by us. In connection with the transaction, we repaid all the outstanding borrowings of Patriot, in compliance with the merger agreement.

On March 17, 2010, we established an at-the-market program through which we may sell, from time to time and at our discretion, 8,000,000 shares of our common stock. Through this program we issued 811,500 shares of our common stock at an average price of $12.60 per share, raising $10,230 of gross proceeds, from March 23, 2010 through March 31, 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At March 31, 2010, we did not have any off-balance sheet liabilities or other contractual obligations that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, other than those which originate from 1) the investment advisory and management agreement and the administration agreement and 2) the portfolio companies.

As of March 31, 2010, we have $13,757 of undrawn revolver commitments to our portfolio companies.

Developments Since the End of the Fiscal Quarter

On April 23, 2010, we issued 248,731 shares of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan.


Item 3.		Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and equity price risk. At March 31, 2010, most of the loans in our portfolio bore interest at fixed interest rates. Several of our floating rate loans have floors which have effectively converted the loans to fixed rate loans in the current interest rate environment. At March 31, 2010, the principal value of loans totaling $72,886 bear interest at floating rates.

If we continue to invest in fixed rate loans, we may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.


Item 4.		Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure of any material information relating to the Company that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.		Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of such of these matters as may arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.


Item 1A.		Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in our most recent 10-K filing.
