BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION OF AMERICA II

NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2015
(Unaudited)


Note 1 - Organization and Business Operations
Business Development Corporation of America II (the "Company"), incorporated in Maryland on April 17, 2014, is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and is applying the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, "Financial Services - Investment Companies" ("ASC 946"). As a BDC, the Company is required to comply with certain regulatory requirements promulgated under the 1940 Act. The Company intends to elect to be taxed for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with the filing of the Company's 2015 tax return. The Company is sponsored by AR Capital, LLC (the "Sponsor") and is managed by BDCA Adviser II, LLC (the "Adviser"), which is wholly-owned by the Sponsor, pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory and Management Services Agreement (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"). The Adviser oversees the management of the Company’s activities and is responsible for making investment decisions regarding its portfolio.
The Company is offering for sale on a continuous basis a maximum of 300 million shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an initial offering price of $10.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts, on a "best efforts" basis pursuant to a registration statement on Form N-2, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the "Registration Statement") (File No. 333-197447), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Offering"). On May 19, 2014, the Company sold 22,222 shares of common stock to the Sponsor for $9.00 per share, which represents the initial offering price of $10.00 per share less selling commissions of $0.70 per share and dealer manager fees of $0.30 per share consistent with the terms and disclosures of the Registration Statement. On September 8, 2014, the Company's Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC and the Company commenced the Offering.
If by September 8, 2015, the Company does not sell shares totaling gross offering proceeds of at least $2.0 million, including shares purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates ("Minimum Offering Requirement"), the Company will promptly return all funds to investors and will stop the Offering. Prior to reaching the Minimum Offering Requirement, all subscription payments will be held in an escrow account by UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for the Company's subscribers pending release to the Company.
The Company is a specialty finance company formed primarily to make debt investments in first lien, floating rate loans and, to a lesser extent, second lien loans that are generally made to U.S. companies, syndicated and have a secondary trading market. The Company may also invest in collateralized loan obligations ("CLO"). The Company's CLO portfolio will primarily focus on the equity tranches of the CLO.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 
Interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, the interim financial statements may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the interim financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2015.
Organization and Offering Costs
The Company has incurred organization and offering costs in connection with the Offering. The organization and offering costs have been paid by the Company from the proceeds of the initial capital contribution from the Company's Sponsor and from the proceeds of affiliate advances. It is the Company’s plan to complete the Offering; however, there can be no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital will be successful.
Organization costs  - Organization costs include professional fees, regulatory fees and other costs of incorporation. These costs are expensed as incurred. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has incurred organization costs of $78,709.

NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Offering costs  - Offering costs principally relate to professional fees (including transfer agent fees), printing costs, direct marketing expenses, due diligence costs, fees paid to regulators and other expenses, including the salaries and/or expenses of the Adviser and its affiliates engaged in registering and marketing the Company’s common stock. Such allocated expenses of the Adviser and its affiliates may include the development of marketing materials and presentations, training and educational meetings and generally coordinating the marketing process for the Company. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company has incurred offering costs of $2,214,588 and $1,633,750, respectively. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company and the Adviser have agreed that the Company will not be liable for any organization and offering costs in excess of $125,000 if aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering have not exceeded $12.5 million. If aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering exceed $12.5 million, then the Company will not be liable for any organization and offering costs in excess of 1.5% of aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering.
As of June 30, 2015, the aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering have not exceeded $12.5 million. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2015, the Company has recognized $78,709 of organization costs and $46,291 of transfer agent fees classified as offering costs. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the organization and offering costs incurred by the Company of $2,168,297 and $1,587,459, respectively, in excess of the amount the Company is liable to pay have been netted with amounts due to affiliates resulting in a net due to affiliates of $305,544 and $50,052, respectively, that are recorded on the condensed statements of assets and liabilities.
Reclassification and Presentation
The Company previously disclosed accrued accounting and tax fees of $101,155 and accrued legal fees of $28,826 on the Company's statement of assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2014. These previous period amounts have been condensed to accrued professional fees of $129,981 on the Company's condensed statement of assets and liabilities presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standard
On January 1, 2015, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-10, which eliminated certain financial reporting requirements of companies previously identified as “Development Stage Entities” (Topic 915). The amendments in this ASU simplify accounting guidance by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities. The amendments also reduce data maintenance and, for those entities subject to audit, audit costs by eliminating the requirement for development stage entities to present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows and stockholders’ equity. As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s condensed interim financial statements have been presented to conform with the reporting and disclosure requirements of ASU No. 2014-10.
Recent Accounting Standards Updates
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed interim financial statements.
Note 3 - Related Party Transactions and Arrangements
Capital Contribution by AR Capital, LLC
On May 19, 2014, the Company sold 22,222 shares of common stock to the Sponsor for $9.00 per share, which represents the initial offering price of $10.00 per share less selling commissions of $0.70 per share and dealer manager fees of $0.30 per share consistent with the terms and disclosures of the Registration Statement.
Payments to the Adviser and Affiliates
The Adviser and its affiliates will receive compensation and reimbursement for services relating to the Offering and the investment and management of the Company’s assets.
Management and Incentive Fee Compensation to the Adviser
The Company entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser on August 21, 2014, in which the Company will pay the Adviser a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of two components - a management fee and an incentive fee. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser, the management fee and incentive fee will not begin to accrue until the quarter in which the Company breaks escrow which has not occurred as of June 30, 2015.

(Unaudited)

Management fee  - The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.0% of average gross assets. The management fee is payable quarterly in arrears and is calculated based on the average value of gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. The management fee for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately pro-rated.
Incentive fee  - The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part, the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on 15.0% of the Company’s "pre-incentive fee net investment income" (defined below) for the immediately preceding quarter. The payment of the subordinated incentive fee on income is subject to payment of a preferred return to investors each quarter, expressed as a quarterly rate of return on "adjusted capital" (defined below) at the beginning of the most recently completed calendar quarter subject to a "catch up" (defined below) feature. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the subordinated incentive fee will be paid out as follows:
No subordinated incentive fee on income is payable to the Adviser in any calendar quarter in which the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the preferred return rate of 1.75% (7.00% annualized);
100% of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the preferred return rate of 1.75% in any given calendar quarter (7.00% annualized) but is less than or equal to 2.0588% in any calendar quarter (8.24% annualized) is payable to the Adviser. This portion of the subordinated incentive fee on income is referred to as the "catch up" and is intended to provide the Adviser with an incentive fee of 15.0% on all of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income when the Company's pre-incentive fee investment income reaches 2.0588% (8.24% annualized) in any calendar quarter;
For any calendar quarter in which the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.0588% (8.24% annualized), the subordinated incentive fee on income equals 15.0% of the amount of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income, as the preferred return and catch-up will have been achieved.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income is defined as interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, other than fees for providing managerial assistance, such as commitment, organization, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company's operating expenses for the quarter (excluding the incentive fee and including but not limited to the base management fee, expenses payable under an administration agreement and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock). 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 the Company has 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.
Adjusted capital is defined as cumulative gross proceeds generated from sales of the Company's common stock (including proceeds from the Company's distribution reinvestment plan) reduced for distributions from non-liquidating dispositions of the Company's investments paid to stockholders and amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to the Company's share repurchase program.
The second part of the incentive fee, the incentive fee on net capital gains, is an incentive fee on net capital gains earned on the portfolio during operations prior to the Company’s liquidation and is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement). This fee equals 15.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains, which equals the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees.
As of June 30, 2015 the Company has not incurred any management fees, subordinated incentive fees or capital gain incentive fees under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Expense Support Agreement
The Adviser and its affiliates may incur and pay costs and fees on behalf of the Company which are reimbursable to the Adviser. The Company and the Adviser entered into an Expense Support Agreement on August 21, 2014, whereby the Adviser may pay the Company up to 100% of all operating expenses ("Expense Support Payment") for any period beginning on the effective date of the Registration Statement, until the Adviser and the Company mutually agree otherwise. The Expense Support Payment for any month shall be paid by the Adviser to the Company in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds, and/or offsets against amounts due from the Company to the Adviser. The purpose of the Expense Support Payment is to reduce operating expenses until the Company has achieved economies of scale sufficient to ensure that it is able to bear a

(Unaudited)

reasonable level of expense in relation to investment income. Operating expenses subject to this agreement include expenses as defined by GAAP, including, without limitation, fees payable to the Adviser and interest on indebtedness for such period, if any.
Pursuant to the terms of the Expense Support Agreement, the Company may reimburse the Adviser for each Expense Support Payment no later than three years after such Expense Support Payment is made by the Adviser. Reimbursement shall be made as promptly as possible on a date mutually agreed to by the Company and the Adviser (the "Reimbursement Date") provided that (i) the operating expense ratio, defined as operating expenses excluding organization and offering expenses, base management fees, incentive fees and any interest expense attributable to indebtedness by the Company ("Net Operating Expenses") expressed as a percentage of the Company's net assets on the relevant measurement date, as of such Reimbursement Date is equal to or less than the operating expense ratio as of the Expense Support Payment date attributable to such specified Expense Support Payment, (ii) the annualized distribution rate as of such Reimbursement Date is equal to or greater than the annualized distribution rate as of the Expense Support Payment date attributable to such specified Expense Support Payment; (iii) such specified Expense Support Payment date is not earlier than three years prior to the Reimbursement Date; and (iv) the Expense Support Payment does not cause the Company’s Net Operating Expenses to exceed 1.5% of the Company’s net assets attributable to common shares, after taking such reimbursement into account.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company has not been reimbursed for any operating expenses pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement.
Fees Paid in Connection with the Offering
Dealer Manager
The Company entered into a dealer manager agreement on September 8, 2014 with Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the "Dealer Manager"), an entity under common control with the Sponsor, to serve as the dealer manager of the Offering. The Dealer Manager receives fees and compensation in connection with the sale of the Company’s common stock in the Offering.
The Dealer Manager receives a selling commission of up to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering before reallowance of commissions earned by participating broker-dealers. Alternatively, selected broker-dealers may elect to receive a fee equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering (not including selling commissions and dealer manager fees) by such participating broker-dealer, with 2.5% thereof paid at the time of such sale and 1.0% thereof paid on each anniversary of the closing of such sale up to and including the fifth anniversary of the closing of such sale. If this option is elected, the dealer manager fee will be reduced to 2.5% of gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering (not including selling commissions and dealer manager fees).
In addition, the Dealer Manager receives up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering, before reallowance to participating broker-dealers, as a dealer manager fee. The Dealer Manager may reallow up to 1.5% of its dealer manager fee to selected participating broker-dealers.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company has not incurred any selling commissions or dealer manager fees.
Organization and Offering Costs
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company and the Adviser have agreed that the Company will not be liable for any organization and offering costs in excess of $125,000 if aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering have not exceeded $12.5 million. If aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering exceed $12.5 million, the Company will not be liable for any organization and offering costs in excess of 1.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, organization and offering costs in the amount of $2,168,297 and $1,587,459, respectively, have been incurred in excess of the $125,000 limit as the aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering have not exceeded $12.5 million and are therefore the responsibility of the Adviser. The Company has paid $125,000 in organization and offering costs which have been paid in cash from the proceeds of the initial capital contribution and affiliate advances.
See table below for further details on related party organization and offering costs incurred by the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2015, for the period from April 17, 2014 (date of inception) to June 30, 2014 and for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Note 8 - Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the condensed interim financial statements were issued and determined that there have not been any events that have occurred that would require adjustments to disclosures in these condensed interim financial statements, except as set forth below.
Advisory Agreement Amendment
On July 2, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Advisory Agreement Amendment”) to its Investment Advisory Agreement dated as of August 21, 2014 with the Advisor. The Company’s board of directors previously approved the entry into the Advisory Agreement Amendment on June 15, 2015. The Advisory Agreement Amendment revises the amounts for the preferred return (as defined in the Investment Advisory Agreement) and “catch up” percentage (as used in the Investment Advisory Agreement) from 1.6875% quarterly (6.75% annualized) to 1.75% quarterly (7.00% annualized) and from 1.9853% quarterly (7.94% annualized) to 2.0588% quarterly (8.24% annualized), respectively.
Sponsor Transaction
On August 6, 2015, the Sponsor entered into a transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with AMH Holdings (Cayman), L.P. (“AMH”), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership and an affiliate of Apollo Global Management, LLC (NYSE: APO) (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”), and a newly-formed entity, AR Global Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AR Global”). The Transaction Agreement provides that the Sponsor will transfer to AR Global substantially all of the assets of its ongoing asset management business (including equity interests in its subsidiaries, which includes the parent of the Adviser).  The Transaction Agreement also provides that AMH will contribute money and other assets to AR Global.  Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, AMH will hold a 60% interest in AR Global and the Sponsor will hold a 40% interest in AR Global. The business and affairs of AR Global will be overseen by a board of managers comprised of ten members, six of which will be appointed by AMH and four of which will be appointed by the Sponsor.  The Adviser is currently owned indirectly by the Sponsor and following the Transactions will be owned indirectly by AR Global.
Also on August 6, 2015, RCS Capital Corporation (“RCS Capital”), the parent of the Company’s Dealer Manager and a company under common control with the Sponsor, announced that it has entered into an agreement with an affiliate of Apollo to sell RCS Capital’s wholesale distribution division (collectively, the "Transactions"), including the Company's Dealer Manager, and certain related entities.  Upon completion of the transaction, the Dealer Manager will continue to operate as a stand-alone entity within AR Global. The current management team of the Dealer Manager, which is led by William E. Dwyer III, will continue to operate the day-to-day functions of the business.
The various Transactions are subject to customary closing conditions and are expected to close in 2015. Upon the consummation of the Transactions, an “assignment,” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Adviser will occur, which will result in the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement in accordance with its terms.  The Company’s independent directors unanimously gave an authorization to proceed with the Transactions, subject to any required regulatory approvals as well as approvals by the Company’s board of directors and shareholders, including approval of a new advisory agreement with the Adviser to go into effect after the Transaction with respect to the Adviser’s parent is completed.

Overview
Business Development Corporation of America II, incorporated in Maryland on April 17, 2014, is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and is applying the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, "Financial Services - Investment Companies" ("ASC 946"). As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements promulgated under the 1940 Act. We intend to elect to be taxed for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), with the filing of our 2015 tax return. We are sponsored by AR Capital, LLC (the "Sponsor") and are managed by BDCA Adviser II, LLC (the "Adviser"), which is wholly-owned by the Sponsor, pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory and Management Services Agreement (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"). The Adviser oversees the management activities and is responsible for making investment decisions regarding our portfolio.
We are offering for sale on a continuous basis a maximum of 300 million shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an initial offering price of $10.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts, on a "best efforts" basis pursuant to a registration statement on Form N-2, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the "Registration Statement") (File No. 333-197447), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Offering"). On May 19, 2014, we sold 22,222 shares of common stock to the Sponsor for $9.00 per share, which represents the initial offering price of $10.00 per share less selling commissions of $0.70 per share and dealer manager fees of $0.30 per share consistent with the terms and disclosures of the Registration Statement. On September 8, 2014, our Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC. Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the "Dealer Manager"), our affiliate, serves as the dealer manager of the Offering.
If by September 8, 2015 we do not sell shares totaling gross offering proceeds of at least $2.0 million, including shares purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates (the "Minimum Offering Requirement"), we will promptly return all funds to investors and will stop the Offering. Prior to reaching the Minimum Offering Requirement, all subscription payments will be held in an escrow account by UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for our subscribers pending release to us.
We are a specialty finance company formed primarily to make debt investments in first lien, floating rate loans and, to a lesser extent, second lien loans that are generally made to U.S. companies, syndicated and have a secondary trading market . We may also invest in collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"). Our CLO portfolio will primarily focus on the equity tranches of the CLOs.
Investment Advisory Agreement
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement we entered into on August 21, 2014 with our Adviser, we will pay our Adviser a fee for its services consisting of two components - a management fee and an incentive fee. The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.0% of our average gross assets at the end of the two most recent completed calendar quarters, and is payable quarterly in arrears.
The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part, the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on 15.0% of our "pre-incentive fee net investment income" (defined below) for the immediately preceding quarter. The payment of the subordinated incentive fee on income is subject to payment of a preferred return to investors each quarter, expressed as a quarterly rate of return on "adjusted capital" (defined below) at the beginning of the most recently completed calendar quarter subject to a "catch up" (defined below) feature. The subordinated incentive fee will be paid out as follows:
No subordinated incentive fee on income is payable to the Adviser in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the preferred return rate of 1.75% (7.00% annualized);
100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the preferred return rate of 1.75% in any given calendar quarter (7.00% annualized) but is less than or equal to 2.0588% in any calendar quarter (8.24% annualized) is payable to the Adviser. This portion of the of the subordinated incentive fee on income is referred to as the "catch up" and is intended to provide the Adviser with an incentive fee of 15.0% on all of our pre-incentive fee net investment income when our pre-incentive fee investment income reaches 2.0588% (8.24% annualized) in any calendar quarter; and
For any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.0588% (8.24% annualized), the subordinated incentive fee on income equals 15.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, as the preferred return and catch-up will have been achieved.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income is defined as interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, other than fees for providing managerial assistance, such as commitment, organization, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (excluding the incentive fee and including but not limited to the base management fee, expenses payable under an administration agreement and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock). 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

13


in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.
Adjusted capital is defined as cumulative gross proceeds generated from sales of our common stock (including proceeds from the our distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP")) reduced for distributions from non-liquidating dispositions of our investments paid to stockholders and amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase program.
The second part of the incentive fee, the incentive fee on net capital gains, is an incentive fee on net capital gains earned on the portfolio during operations prior to our liquidation and is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement). This fee equals 15.0% of our incentive fee capital gains, which equals our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees.
As of June 30, 2015 we have not incurred any management fees, subordinated incentive fees or capital gain incentive fees under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Expense Support Agreement
We have entered into an Expense Support Agreement with the Adviser on August 21, 2014, whereby the Adviser may pay up to 100% of all of our operating expenses for any period beginning on the effective date of the Registration Statement, until we and the Adviser mutually agree otherwise. The Expense Support Payment for any month shall be paid by the Adviser to us in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds and/or offsets against amounts due from us to the Adviser. The purpose of the Expense Support Payment is to reduce offering and operating expenses until we have achieved economies of scale sufficient to ensure that we are able to bear a reasonable level of expense in relation to investment income. Operating expenses subject to this agreement include expenses as defined by GAAP, including, without limitation, fees payable to the Adviser and interest on indebtedness for such period, if any.
Pursuant to the terms of the Expense Support Agreement, we have agreed to reimburse the Adviser for each Expense Support Payment no sooner than three years after such Expense Support Payment is made by the Adviser. Reimbursement shall be made as promptly as possible on a date mutually agreed to by us and the Adviser (the "Reimbursement Date") provided that (i) the operating expense ratio, defined as operating expenses excluding organization and offering expenses, base management fees, incentive fees and any interest expense attributable to our indebtedness ("Net Operating Expenses") expressed as a percentage of our net assets on the relevant measurement date, as of such Reimbursement Date is equal to or less than the operating expense ratio as of the Expense Support Payment date attributable to such specified Expense Support Payment, (ii) the annualized distribution rate as of such Reimbursement Date is equal to or greater than the annualized distribution rate as of the Expense Support Payment date attributable to such specified Expense Support Payment; (iii) such specified Expense Support Payment date is not earlier than three years prior to the Reimbursement Date; and (iv) the Expense Support Payment does not cause our Net Operating Expenses to exceed 1.5% of our net assets attributable to common shares, after taking such reimbursement into account.
As of June 30, 2015, we have not been reimbursed for any operating expenses pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement.
Dealer Manager Agreement
We entered into a dealer manager agreement on September 8, 2014 with the Dealer Manager to serve as the dealer manager of the Offering. The Dealer Manager receives fees and compensation in connection with the sale of our common stock in the Offering. The Dealer Manager receives a selling commission of up to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering before reallowance of commissions earned by participating broker-dealers. Alternatively, selected broker-dealers may elect to receive a fee equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering (not including selling commissions and dealer manager fees) by such participating broker-dealer, with 2.5% thereof paid at the time of such sale and 1.0% thereof paid on each anniversary of the closing of such sale up to and including the fifth anniversary of the closing of such sale. If this option is elected, the dealer manager fee will be reduced to 2.5% of gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering (not including selling commissions and dealer manager fees).
In addition, the Dealer Manager receives up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold in the Offering, before reallowance to participating broker-dealers, as a dealer manager fee. The Dealer Manager may reallow up to 1.5% of its dealer manager fee to such participating broker-dealers.
As of June 30, 2015, we have not incurred any selling commissions or dealer manager fees.



14


Potential Conflicts of Interest
The Adviser’s senior management team is comprised of substantially the same personnel as the senior management team of BDCA Adviser, LLC ("BDCA Adviser"), the investment adviser to Business Development Corporation of America ("BDCA"), the Sponsor’s other affiliated BDC. Personnel of BDCA Adviser and the Adviser may provide investment advice for clients other than us and BDCA, respectively, any, or all, and may continue to do so in the future. To the extent that the Adviser undertakes to provide investment advisory services to other clients, it intends to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with our investment objectives and strategies, if necessary, so that we will not be disadvantaged in relation to any other client of the Adviser or its management team. In addition, even in the absence of the Adviser retaining additional clients, it is possible that some investment opportunities may be provided to other clients rather than to us.
Exemptive Relief
On August 5, 2015, the SEC issued an order granting an application for exemptive relief from the provisions of Sections 17(d) and 57(a)(4) of the 1940 Act as filed with the SEC to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with BDCA, and any future BDCs that are advised by the Adviser or its affiliated investment advisers, or, collectively, our co-investment affiliates, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. We believe this relief may not only enhance our ability to further our investment objectives and strategies, but may also increase favorable investment opportunities for us, in part by allowing us to participate in larger investments, together with our co-investment affiliates, than would be available to us in the absence of such relief.
Other Related-Party Arrangements
We have entered into agreements with our affiliates, whereby we pay certain fees or reimbursements to our Adviser or its affiliates in connection with asset and service fees, reimbursement of operating costs and offering related costs. We have entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser, an Expense Support Agreement with the Adviser and a Dealer Manager Agreement with the Dealer Manager, an affiliate of the Sponsor.
In addition, we have a relationship with RCS Advisory Services, LLC ("RCS"), an entity under common control with the Sponsor, that provides services to us as contemplated under the Investment Advisory Agreement. RCS will provide us with legal, compliance and marketing services and will receive fees as compensation for such services.
In addition, we engaged American National Stock Transfer, LLC ("Transfer Agent") an entity under common control with the Sponsor, on May 19, 2014, to provide us with transfer agent services. The Transfer Agent will conduct transfer agency, registrar and supervisory services for us and will receive fees as compensation for such services.
An affiliate of ours, SK Research, LLC ("SK Research"), is an entity under common control with the Sponsor. SK Research provides broker-dealers and financial advisers with the research, critical thinking and analytical resources necessary to evaluate the viability, utility and performance of investment programs. We entered into a due diligence review fee reimbursement agreement on August 29, 2014 with SK Research. SK Research is conducting its due diligence on us.
See Note 3 - Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our condensed interim financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q above for a discussion of the various related-party transactions, agreements and fees.
Significant Accounting Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies
A summary of our significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our condensed interim financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. A full disclosure of our significant accounting polices is disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Results of Operations
As of June 30, 2015, we have not commenced operations or acquired any assets. Additionally, our management is not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on the capital resources or income to be derived from our operations.
Recent Developments
Advisory Agreement Amendment
On July 2, 2015, we entered into an amendment (the “Advisory Agreement Amendment”) to our Investment Advisory Agreement dated as of August 21, 2014 with the Advisor. Our board of directors previously approved the entry into the Advisory Agreement Amendment on June 15, 2015. The Advisory Agreement Amendment revises the amounts for the preferred return (as defined in the Investment Advisory Agreement) and “catch up” percentage (as used in the Investment Advisory Agreement) from 1.6875% quarterly (6.75% annualized) to 1.75% quarterly (7.00% annualized) and from 1.9853% quarterly (7.94% annualized) to 2.0588% quarterly (8.24% annualized), respectively.

Sponsor Transaction
On August 6, 2015, the Sponsor entered into a transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with AMH Holdings (Cayman), L.P. (“AMH”), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership and an affiliate of Apollo Global Management, LLC (NYSE: APO) (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”), and a newly-formed entity, AR Global Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AR Global”). The Transaction Agreement provides that the Sponsor will transfer to AR Global substantially all of the assets of its ongoing asset management business (including equity interests in its subsidiaries, which includes the parent of the Adviser).  The Transaction Agreement also provides that AMH will contribute money and other assets to AR Global.  Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, AMH will hold a 60% interest in AR Global and the Sponsor will hold a 40% interest in AR Global. The business and affairs of AR Global will be overseen by a board of managers comprised of ten members, six of which will be appointed by AMH and four of which will be appointed by the Sponsor.  The Adviser is currently owned indirectly by the Sponsor and following the Transactions will be owned indirectly by AR Global.
Also on August 6, 2015, RCS Capital Corporation (“RCS Capital”), the parent of our Dealer Manager and a company under common control with the Sponsor, announced that it has entered into an agreement with an affiliate of Apollo to sell RCS Capital’s wholesale distribution division (collectively, the "Transactions"), including our Dealer Manager and certain related entities.  Upon completion of the transaction, the Dealer Manager will continue to operate as a stand-alone entity within AR Global. The current management team of the Dealer Manager, which is led by William E. Dwyer III, will continue to operate the day-to-day functions of the business.
The various Transactions are subject to customary closing conditions and are expected to close in 2015. Upon the consummation of the Transactions, an “assignment,” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, of the Investment Advisory Agreement between us and the Adviser will occur, which will result in the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement in accordance with its terms.  Our independent directors unanimously gave an authorization to proceed with the Transactions, subject to any required regulatory approvals as well as approvals by our board of directors and shareholders, including approval of a new advisory agreement with the Adviser to go into effect after the Transaction with respect to the Adviser’s parent is completed.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We will generate cash initially from the net proceeds of the Offering and, as we build our investment portfolio, from interest and dividends earned on our investments as well as proceeds from sales of our investments. Our current capital resources have come from the initial capital contribution from our Sponsor and from affiliate advances.
Our principal demands for funds will be for portfolio investments for the payment of operating expenses, distributions to our investors and for the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. Generally, cash needs for investment activities will be met through proceeds from the sale of common stock through the Offering. We may also from time to time enter into other agreements with third parties where by third parties will contribute to specific investment opportunities. Management expects that in the future, as our investment portfolio grows, our investments will generate sufficient cash flow to cover operating expenses and the payment of monthly distributions. Other potential future sources of capital include proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from private offerings, proceeds from the sales of our investments and undistributed funds from operations.
Distributions
As of June 30, 2015, we have not yet commenced operations or acquired any assets. Therefore, we have not had any income, cash flows provided by investment operations or funds available for dividends. Subject to the discretion of our board of directors and applicable legal restrictions, we intend to authorize and declare monthly distributions that will be paid on a monthly basis beginning no later than the first calendar quarter subsequent to the month in which the Minimum Offering Requirement is met. We have also adopted an "opt in" DRIP for our common stockholders. As a result, if we make a distribution, the stockholders will receive distributions in cash unless they specifically "opt in" to the DRIP so as to have their cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of common stock.
Election as a RIC
We intend to elect to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code with the filing of our 2015 tax return and intend to maintain our qualification as a RIC thereafter. As a RIC, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any income that we distribute to our stockholders from our tax earnings and profits. To qualify and maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, in order to maintain RIC tax treatment, we must distribute to our stockholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our "Investment Company Taxable Income," which is generally our net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gain over realized net long-term capital loss, or the annual distribution requirement. Even if we qualify as a

16


RIC, we generally will be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on our undistributed taxable income and could be subject to U.S federal excise, state, local and foreign taxes. We will be subject to a 4% nondeductible U.S. Federal excise tax unless we distribute in a timely manner an amount at least equal to 98% of net ordinary income each calendar year and 98.2% of capital gain net income for the one-year period ending on October 31 of such calendar year, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior years for which we paid no federal income taxes.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
