On November 7, 2012, we converted from a limited liability company into a corporation. In this conversion, or the BDC Conversion, OFS Capitalsucceeded to the business of OFS Capital, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries, and the sole member of OFS Capital, LLC became the sole shareholder ofOFS Capital. Thereafter, we filed an election to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, asamended, or the 1940 Act. Unless otherwise indicated, the disclosure in this annual report on Form 10-K gives effect to the BDC Conversion. Item 1.Business General We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. Our investment objective is to provide our shareholderswith both current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments and, to a lesser extent, equity investments. Our investment strategyfocuses primarily on investments in middle-market companies in the United States. We use the term “middle-market” to refer to companies that may exhibitone or more of the following characteristics: number of employees between 150 and 2,000; revenues between $15 million and $300 million; annual earningsbefore interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, between $3 million and $50 million; generally, private companies owned by private equityfirms or owners/operators; and enterprise value between $10 million and $500 million. For additional information about how we define the middle-market,see “General—Investment Criteria/Guidelines.” As of December 31, 2013, our investment portfolio consisted of outstanding loans of approximately $237.7 million in aggregate principal amount in58 portfolio companies, of which $49.0 million in aggregate principal amount was held by OFS SBIC I, LP (formerly known as Tamarix Capital Partners,L.P.), or SBIC I LP, our wholly-owned small business investment company, or SBIC, subsidiary, in eight portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2013, 93%of our investment portfolio was comprised of senior secured loans, 4% of subordinated loans and 3% of equity investments, at fair value. While our investment strategy focuses primarily on middle-market companies in the United States, including senior secured loans, which includes first-lien, second-lien and unitranche loans as well as subordinated loans and, to a lesser extent, warrants and other minority equity securities, we also may investup to 30% of our portfolio in opportunistic investments of non-eligible portfolio companies. Specifically, as part of this 30% basket, we may considerinvestments in investment funds that are operating pursuant to certain exceptions to the 1940 Act and in advisers to similar investment funds, as well as indebt of middle-market companies located outside of the United States and debt and equity of public companies that do not meet the definition of eligibleportfolio companies because their market capitalization of publicly traded equity securities exceeds the levels provided for in the 1940 Act. Our investment strategy includes SBIC I LP, which received an SBIC license from the U.S. Small Business Administration, or SBA, in May 2012. OnDecember 4, 2013, we received approval from the SBA to acquire all of the limited partnership interests in SBIC I LP and all of the ownership interests of itsgeneral partner, OFS SBIC I GP, LLC (formerly known as Tamarix Capital G.P. LLC), or SBIC I GP, that were owned or subscribed for by other persons. Weacquired the interests on December 4, 2013, which resulted in SBIC I LP becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary. The transaction was finalized in January2014. For additional information on the acquisition of SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP, see “Item 8 – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 4.” TheSBIC license allows SBIC I LP to receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, subject to the issuance of a leverage commitment by the SBA and othercustomary procedures. SBA leverage funding is subject to SBIC I LP’s payment of certain fees to the SBA, and the ability of SBIC I LP to draw on theleverage commitment is subject to its compliance with SBA regulations and policies, including an audit by the SBA. For additional information regardingthe regulation of SBIC I LP, see “- Regulation—Small Business Investment Company Regulations.” On November 26, 2013, we received an exemptive order from the SEC to permit us to exclude the debt of SBIC I LP guaranteed by the SBA from thedefinition of senior securities in the statutory 200% asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act. Our investment activities are managed by OFS Capital Management, LLC, or OFS Advisor, and supervised by our board of directors, a majority ofwhom are independent of us, OFS Advisor and its affiliates. Under the investment advisory agreement between us and OFS Advisor, or the InvestmentAdvisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay OFS Advisor an annual base management fee based on the average value of our total assets (other than cash andcash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity) as well as an incentive feebased on our investment performance. We have elected to exclude from the base management fee calculation any base management fee that would be owedin respect of the intangible asset and goodwill resulting from our acquisitions of the remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December4, 2013. We have also entered into an administration agreement, or Administration Agreement, with OFS Capital Services, LLC, or OFS Services, ourAdministrator. Under our Administration Agreement, we have agreed to reimburse OFS Services for our allocable portion (subject to the review and approvalof our independent directors) of overhead and other expenses incurred by OFS Services in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement. 3 As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Underthe relevant SEC rules, the term “eligible portfolio company” includes all private companies, companies whose securities are not listed on a nationalsecurities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of lessthan $250 million, in each case organized in the United States. We are permitted to borrow money from time to time within the levels permitted by the 1940 Act (which generally allows us to incur leverage for up to50% of our asset base). We may borrow money when the terms and conditions available are favorable to do so and are aligned with our investment strategyand portfolio composition. The use of borrowed funds or the proceeds of preferred stock to make investments would have its own specific benefits and risks,and all of the costs of borrowing funds or issuing preferred stock would be borne by holders of our common stock. We have elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,or the Code. To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and assets diversification requirements. Pursuant to theseelections, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income we distribute to our shareholders. About OFS and Our Advisor OFS (which refers to the collective activities and operations of Orchard First Source Asset Management, LLC (“OFSAM”) and its subsidiaries andcertain affiliates) is an established investment platform focused on meeting the capital needs of middle-market companies. OFS is the successor to FirstSource Financial Inc., which was founded in 1995 as a joint venture between Dominion Capital, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dominion Resources,Inc., or Dominion, and Household Commercial Financial Services Inc., a unit of Household International, or Household. Household sold its interest in FirstSource Financial Inc. to Dominion in 1997. In 2003, Orchard Paladin Management, LLC, our predecessor, acquired from Dominion a portfolio of performingand non-performing loans of approximately $625 million in aggregate commitment amount, plus additional investments in equity securities. Shortlythereafter, in 2004, Orchard Paladin Management, LLC acquired Dominion’s interest in First Source Financial Inc. Many of the workouts managed by oursenior managers since 2003 involved loans in the portfolio acquired from Dominion and loans acquired as a result of the purchase of Dominion’s interest inFirst Source Financial Inc. As of December 31, 2013, OFS had 36 full-time employees and five part-time employees. OFS is currently headquartered in Rolling Meadows, Illinois,a suburb of Chicago, but is moving its headquarters to Chicago, Illinois beginning March 24, 2014. OFS also has additional offices in New York, New Yorkand Los Angeles, California. Our investment activities are managed by OFS Advisor, our investment adviser. OFS Advisor is responsible for sourcing potential investments,conducting research and diligence on potential investments and equity sponsors, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring our investments andmonitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. OFS Advisor is a subsidiary of OFSAM, our parent company prior to thecompletion of our IPO, and is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, or the Advisers Act. Our relationship with OFS Advisor is governed by and dependent on the Investment Advisory Agreement and may be subject to conflicts of interest.OFS Advisor provides us with advisory services in exchange for a base management fee and incentive fee. See “—Management and Other Agreements—Investment Advisory Agreement” for a discussion of the base management fee and incentive fee payable by us to OFS Advisor. The base management fee isbased on our total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by anyconsolidated entity) and, therefore, OFS Advisor will benefit when we incur debt or use leverage. Our board of directors is charged with protecting ourinterests by monitoring how OFS Advisor addresses these and other conflicts of interest associated with its management services and compensation. Whileour board of directors is not expected to review or approve each borrowing or incurrence of leverage, our independent directors will periodically review OFSAdvisor’s services and fees as well as its portfolio management decisions and portfolio performance. OFS Advisor has entered into a Staffing Agreement with Orchard First Source Capital, Inc., or OFSC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFSAM. OFSCemploys all of OFS’s investment professionals. Under the Staffing Agreement, OFSC makes experienced investment professionals available to OFS Advisorand provides access to the senior investment personnel of OFS and its affiliates. The Staffing Agreement provides OFS Advisor with access to deal flowgenerated by OFS and its affiliates in the ordinary course of their businesses and commits the members of OFS Advisor’s investment committee to serve inthat capacity. As our investment adviser, OFS Advisor is obligated to allocate investment opportunities among us and any other clients fairly and equitablyover time in accordance with its allocation policy. 4 OFS Advisor capitalizes on the significant deal origination and sourcing, credit underwriting, due diligence, investment structuring, execution,portfolio management and monitoring experience of OFS’s professionals. The senior management team of OFS, including Glenn Pittson, Bilal Rashid, JeffCerny and Mark Hauser, provides services to OFS Advisor. These managers have developed a broad network of contacts within the investment community,averaging over 20 years of experience investing in debt and equity securities of middle-market companies. In addition, these managers have gained extensiveexperience investing in assets that will constitute our primary focus and have expertise in investing across all levels of the capital structure of middle-marketcompanies. In addition to their roles with OFS Advisor, Glenn Pittson and Bilal Rashid serve as our interested directors. Mr. Pittson has over 25 years of experiencein corporate finance, senior and mezzanine lending, structured finance, loan workouts and loan portfolio management, having spent the majority of his careerin various capacities at Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (“CIBC”), including as head of U.S. Credit Markets, where he was central to the developmentand execution of a fundamental restructuring of CIBC’s loan origination activities. During the mid-1980’s, Mr. Pittson was instrumental in establishingCIBC’s leveraged lending business. Mr. Rashid has approximately 18 years of experience in investment banking, debt capital markets and investing as itrelates to corporate credit, structured credit and securitizations, including serving as a managing director in the global markets and investment bankingdivision at Merrill Lynch. Over his career, Mr. Rashid has advised, arranged financing for and lent to several middle-market credit providers, includingbusiness development companies and their affiliates. Among other members of OFS’s senior management team, Jeff Cerny is experienced in credit evaluation, credit monitoring, troubled credit and loanadministration, and negotiation and structuring of structured funding vehicles, having previously held positions at Sanwa Business Credit Corporation,American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago and Charter Bank Group, a multi-bank holding company. Mark Hauser is experienced in thestructuring of alternative asset and private equity investments, having previously held positions at Sandell Asset Management, an international multi-strategy alternative asset manager, FdG Associates, a New York-based middle-market private equity fund, and Ocean Capital Corporation, a privateinternational investment banking firm. Our Administrator OFS Services, an affiliate of OFS Advisor, provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate. OFS Services furnishes us with officefacilities and equipment, necessary software licenses and subscriptions and clerical, bookkeeping and recordkeeping services at such facilities. OFS Servicesoversees our financial reporting as well as prepares our reports to shareholders and all other reports and materials required to be filed with the U.S. Securitiesand Exchange Commission, or SEC, or any other regulatory authority. OFS Services also manages the determination and publication of our net asset valueand the preparation and filing of our tax returns and generally monitors the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professionalservices rendered to us by others. OFS Services may retain third parties to assist in providing administrative services to us. To the extent that OFS Servicesoutsources any of its functions, we will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without incremental profit to OFS Services. Market Opportunity Our investment strategy is focused primarily on investments in middle-market companies in the United States. We find the middle-market attractive forthe following reasons: Large Target Market. According to the U.S. Census Bureau in its 2007 economic census, the most recent economic census conducted by the U.S.Census Bureau, there were approximately 196,000 companies in the United States with annual revenues between $10 million and $2.5 billion, comparedwith 1,200 companies with revenues greater than $2.5 billion. We believe that these middle-market companies represent a significant growth segment of theU.S. economy and often require substantial capital investments to grow. Middle-market companies have historically constituted the vast bulk of OFS’sportfolio companies since its inception, and constituted the vast bulk of our portfolio as of December 31, 2013. We believe that this market segment willcontinue to produce significant investment opportunities for us. Specialized Lending Requirements with High Barriers to Entry. We believe that several factors render many U.S. financial institutions ill-suited tolend to U.S. middle-market companies. For example, based on the experience of our management team, lending to private middle-market companies in theUnited States (a) is generally more labor-intensive than lending to larger companies due to the smaller size of each investment and the fragmented nature ofinformation for such companies, (b) requires due diligence and underwriting practices consistent with the demands and economic limitations of the middle-market and (c) may also require more extensive ongoing monitoring by the lender. As a result, middle-market companies historically have been served by alimited segment of the lending community. As a result of the unique challenges facing lenders to middle-market companies, there are high barriers to entrythat a new lender must overcome. Robust Demand for Debt Capital. We believe that private equity firms have significant committed but uncalled capital, a large portion of which is stillavailable for investment in the United States. We expect the large amount of unfunded buyout commitments will drive demand for leveraged buyouts overthe next several years, which should, in turn, create leveraged lending opportunities for us. 5 Investment Criteria/Guidelines Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in middle-market companies in the UnitedStates. Although we will continue to focus on investments in senior secured loans, including first lien, second lien, and unitranche loans, we have alsoexpanded into additional asset classes in which the investment professionals of OFS Advisor have expertise, including investments in subordinated loansand, to a lesser extent, warrants and other minority equity securities. In particular, we believe that structured equity debt investments (i.e., senior securedunitranche loans, typically with warrant coverage, in companies with no financial sponsor) represent a significant growth opportunity offering the borrowerthe convenience of dealing with one lender, which may result in a higher blended rate of interest to us than we might expect to receive under a traditionalmulti-tranche structure. We expect that our investments in the equity securities of portfolio companies, such as warrants, preferred stock, common stock andother equity interests, will principally be made in conjunction with our debt investments, and we currently anticipate that no more than 5% of our portfoliowill consist of equity investments in middle-market companies that do not pay a regular dividend. Generally, we do not expect to make investments incompanies or securities that OFS Advisor determines to be distressed investments (such as discounted debt instruments that have either experienced a defaultor have a significant potential for default), other than follow-on investments in portfolio companies of ours. We intend to continue to generate strong risk-adjusted net returns by assembling a diversified portfolio of investments across a broad range of industries. We target U.S. middle-market companies by utilizing our proprietary database of borrowers developed over OFS’s more than 18 years in lending tomiddle-market companies, as well as through OFS’s access to a network of financial institutions, private equity sponsors, investment banks, consultants andattorneys. A typical targeted borrower will exhibit certain of the following characteristics: •number of employees between 150 and 2,000; •revenues between $15 million and $300 million; •annual EBITDA between $3 million and $50 million; •generally, private companies owned by private equity firms or owners/operators; •enterprise value between $10 million and $500 million; •effective and experienced management teams; •defensible market share; •solid historical financial performance, including a steady stream of cash flow; •high degree of recurring revenue; •diversity of customers, markets, products and geography; and •differentiated products or services. 6 While we believe that the characteristics listed above are important in identifying and investing in prospective portfolio companies, not all of thesecriteria will be met by each prospective portfolio company. Due Diligence and Investment Process Overview We employ a thorough and disciplined underwriting and due diligence process that is conducted in accordance with an established and documentedcredit policy and that is focused on investment recovery. Our process involves a comprehensive analysis of a prospective portfolio company’s market,operational, financial, and legal position, as well as its future prospects. In addition to our own analysis, we may use the services of third parties forenvironmental reviews, quality of earnings reports, industry surveys, background checks on key managers, and insurance reviews. We seek to invest in companies that have experienced and incentivized management teams, that have stable and predictable cash flows, and that havedefensible market positions. We underwrite our investments with the expectation that we will hold those investments for a number of years, and we structureand document our investments accordingly. Our due diligence and underwriting process typically addresses the following elements (although certain elements may not be included in every duediligence undertaking): •Prospective Portfolio Company Characteristics: focusing on primary drivers of the company’s revenues and cash flows, including its keyproducts and services; customer and supplier concentrations and contractual relationships; depth, breadth, and quality of company management,as well as the extent to which the management team is appropriately compensated with equity incentives; and any regulatory, labor, or litigationmatters impacting the company. •Industry and Competitive Overview: including industry size and the company’s position within it; growth potential and barriers to entry;governmental, regulatory, or technological issues potentially affecting the industry; and cyclicality or seasonality risks associated with theindustry. •Financial Analysis: involving an understanding of the company’s historical financial results, focusing on actual operating trends experiencedover time, in order to forecast future performance, including in various sensitized performance scenarios; attention to projected cash flows, debtservice coverage, and leverage multiples under such scenarios; and an assessment of enterprise valuations and debt repayment/investmentrecovery prospects given such sensitized performance scenarios. •Investment Documentation: focusing on obtaining the best legal protections available to us given our position within the capital structure,including, as appropriate, financial covenants; collateral liens and stock pledges; review of loan documents of other of the prospective portfoliocompany’s creditors; and negotiation of inter-creditor agreements. Portfolio Review/Risk Monitoring We view active portfolio monitoring as a vital part of our investment process, and we benefit from a portfolio management system developed by OFSthat includes daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly components, and that involves comprehensive review of the performance of each of our portfoliocompanies. As part of the portfolio management process, OFS Advisor performs ongoing risk assessment on each of our investments and assigns each debtinvestment a credit rating based on OFS’s internal ratings scale. 7 We categorize debt investments into the following risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt: 1 (Low Risk) – A risk rated 1, or Low Risk, credit is a credit that has most satisfactory asset quality and liquidity, as well as good leverage capacity. Itmaintains predictable and strong cash flows from operations. The trends and outlook for the credit’s operations, balance sheet, and industry are neutral tofavorable. Collateral, if appropriate, has maintained value and would be capable of being liquidated on a timely basis. Overall a 1 rated credit would beconsidered to be of investment grade quality. 2 (Below Average Risk) – A risk rated 2, or Below Average Risk, credit is a credit that has acceptable asset quality, moderate excess liquidity, modestleverage capacity. It could have some financial/non-financial weaknesses which are offset by strengths; however, the credit demonstrates an ample currentcash flow from operations. The trends and outlook for the credit’s operations, balance sheet, and industry are generally positive or neutral to somewhatnegative. Collateral, if appropriate, has maintained value and would be capable of being liquidated successfully on a timely basis. 3 (Average) – A risk rated 3, or Average, credit is a credit that has acceptable asset quality, somewhat strained liquidity, minimal leverage capacity. It isat times characterized by just acceptable cash flows from operations. Under adverse market conditions, carrying the current debt service could posedifficulties for the borrower. The trends and conditions of the credit’s operations and balance sheet are neutral to slightly negative. 4 (Special Mention) – A risk rated 4, or Special Mention, credit is a credit with no apparent loss of principal or interest envisioned. Nonetheless, itpossesses credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses which deserve management’s close and continued attention. The credit’s operations and/or balancesheet have demonstrated an adverse trend or deterioration which, while serious, has not reached the point where the liquidation of debt is jeopardized. Theseweaknesses are generally considered correctable by the borrower in the normal course of business but may if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset orinadequately protect our credit position. 5 (Substandard) – A risk rated 5, or Substandard, credit is a credit inadequately protected by the current enterprise value or paying capacity of theobligor or of the collateral, if any. These credits have well-defined weaknesses based upon objective evidence, such as recurring or significant decreases inrevenues and cash flows. These assets are characterized by the possibility that we may sustain loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. The possibility thatliquidation would not be timely (e.g. bankruptcy or foreclosure) requires a Substandard classification even if there is little likelihood of loss. 6 (Doubtful) – A risk rated 6, or Doubtful, credit is a credit with all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as Substandard, with the additional factorthat the weaknesses are pronounced to the point that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values is deemeduncertain. The possibility of loss on a Doubtful asset is high but, because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors which may strengthenthe asset, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status can be determined. 7 (Loss) – A risk rated 7, or Loss, credit is a credit considered almost fully uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance as an asset is notwarranted. It is generally a credit that is no longer supported by an operating company, a credit where the majority of our assets have been liquidated or soldand a few assets remain to be sold over many months or even years, or a credit where the remaining collections are expected to be minimal. As of December 31, 2013, we had debt investments in 58 portfolio companies, totaling $230.6 million at fair value, of which $204.3 million, $17.4million, $7.8 million, and $1.1 million were rated 3, 4, 5, and 6, respectively. Investment Committees The purpose of our investment committees is to evaluate and approve our prospective investments, subject at all times to the oversight of our board ofdirectors. OFS Advisor’s investment committee, or the Advisor Investment Committee, which is comprised of Richard Ressler (Chairman), Glenn Pittson, BilalRashid and Jeffrey Cerny, is responsible for our overall asset allocation decisions, as well as approval all of investments made by us directly or through OFSCapital WM, LLC (“OFS Capital WM”). Each member of the Advisor’s Investment Committee performs a similar role for other investments managed by OFSand its affiliates. The investment committee for the SBIC, or the SBIC Investment Committee and, together with the Advisor Investment Committee, the InvestmentCommittees, which is comprised of Mark Hauser, Peter Rothschild, Peter Fidler, and Glenn Pittson, is responsible for approval of all of investments made bySBIC I LP. Any investment decision on the part of SBIC I LP requires the unanimous approval of the SBIC Investment Committee. 8 The process employed by each Investment Committees is intended to bring the diverse experience and perspectives of the committees’ members to theinvestment process. The Investment Committees serve to provide investment consistency and adherence to our core investment philosophy and policies. TheInvestment Committees also determine appropriate investment sizing and implement ongoing monitoring requirements. In certain instances, our board of directors may also determine that its approval is required prior to the making of an investment. In addition toreviewing investments, Investment Committees’ meetings serve as a forum to discuss credit views and outlooks. Potential transactions and deal flow arereviewed on a regular basis. Members of the investment team are encouraged to share information and views on credits with members of the InvestmentCommittees early in their analysis. We believe this process improves the quality of the analysis and assists the deal team members in working efficiently. Structure of Investments We anticipate that our loan portfolio will continue to contain investments of the following types: First-Lien Senior Secured Loans. First-lien senior secured loans comprise, and will continue to comprise, a significant portion of our investmentportfolio. We obtain security interests in the assets of these portfolio companies as collateral in support of the repayment of these loans (in certain cases,subject to a payment waterfall). The collateral takes the form of first-priority liens on specified assets of the portfolio company borrower and, typically, first-priority pledges of the ownership interests in the borrower. Our first lien loans may provide for moderate loan amortization in the early years of the loan, withthe majority of the amortization deferred until loan maturity. Senior Secured Unitranche Loans. Unitranche loans are loans that combine both senior and subordinated debt into one loan under which the borrowerpays a single blended interest rate that is intended to reflect the relative risk of the secured and unsecured components. We typically structure our unitrancheloans as senior secured loans. We obtain security interests in the assets of these portfolio companies as collateral in support of the repayment of these loans.This collateral takes, the form of first-priority liens on the assets of a portfolio company and, typically, first-priority pledges of the ownership interests in thecompany. We believe that unitranche lending represents a significant growth opportunity for us, offering the borrower the convenience of dealing with onelender, which may result in a higher blended rate of interest to us than we might realize in a traditional multi-tranche structure. Unitranche loans typicallyprovide for moderate loan amortization in the initial years of the facility, with the majority of the amortization deferred until loan maturity. Unitranche loansgenerally allow the borrower to make a large lump sum payment of principal at the end of the loan term, and there is a risk of loss if the borrower is unable topay the lump sum or refinance the amount owed at maturity. In many cases, we will be the sole lender, or we, together with our affiliates, will be the solelender, of unitranche loans, which can afford us additional influence with a borrower in terms of monitoring and, if necessary, remediation in the event ofunderperformance. Second-lien Senior Secured Loans. We obtain security interests in the assets of these portfolio companies as collateral in support of the repayment ofsuch loans. This collateral typically takes the form of second-priority liens on the assets of a portfolio company, and we may enter into an intercreditoragreement with the holders of the portfolio company’s first-lien senior secured debt. These loans typically provide for no contractual loan amortization in theinitial years of the facility, with all amortization deferred until loan maturity. Unsecured Subordinated (“Mezzanine”) Loans. We structure these investments as unsecured, subordinated loans that typically provide for relativelyhigh, fixed interest rates that provide us with significant current interest income. These loans typically will have interest-only payments (often representing acombination of cash pay and payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest) in the early years, with amortization of principal deferred to maturity. Mezzanine loansgenerally allow the borrower to make a large lump sum payment of principal at the end of the loan term, and there is a risk of loss if the borrower is unable topay the lump sum or refinance the amount owed at maturity. Mezzanine investments are generally more volatile than secured loans and may involve a greaterrisk of loss of principal. Mezzanine loans often include a PIK feature (meaning a feature allowing for the payment of interest in the form of additionalprincipal amount of the loan instead of in cash), which effectively operates as negative amortization of loan principal, thereby increasing credit risk exposureover the life of the loan. Warrants and Other Minority Equity Securities. In some cases, we will also receive nominally priced warrants or options to buy a minority equityinterest in the portfolio company in connection with such a loan. As a result, as a portfolio company appreciates in value, we may achieve additionalinvestment return from this equity interest. We may structure such warrants to include provisions protecting our rights as a minority-interest holder, as well asa “put,” or right to sell such securities back to the issuer, upon the occurrence of specified events. In many cases, we may also seek to obtain registrationrights in connection with these equity interests, which may include demand and “piggyback” registration rights. 9 General Structuring Considerations. We tailor the terms of each investment to the facts and circumstances of the transaction and the prospectiveportfolio company, negotiating a structure that protects our rights and manages our risk while creating incentives for the portfolio company to achieve itsbusiness plan and improve its operating results. We seek to limit the downside potential of our investments by: •selecting investments that we believe have a very low probability of loss. •requiring a total return on our investments (including both interest and potential equity appreciation) that we believe will compensate usappropriately for credit risk; •negotiating covenants in connection with our investments that afford our portfolio companies as much flexibility in managing their businesses aspossible, consistent with the preservation of our capital. Such restrictions may include affirmative and negative covenants, default penalties, lienprotection, change of control provisions and board rights, including either observation or rights to a seat on the board of directors under somecircumstances; and We expect to hold most of our investments to maturity or repayment, but we may sell some of our investments earlier if a liquidity event occurs, such asa sale, recapitalization or worsening of the credit quality of the portfolio company. Investments We pursue an investment strategy focused primarily on investments in middle-market companies in the United States. Although we continue to focuson investments in first-lien senior secured loans, we have expanded our investment activity into additional asset classes in which OFS Advisor’s investmentprofessionals have expertise, including investments in unitranche, second-lien, and mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, warrants and other minorityequity securities. We seek to create a diverse portfolio by making investments in the securities of middle-market companies that we expect to range generallyfrom $3.0 million to $25.0 million each, although we expect this investment size will vary proportionately with the size of our capital base. As of December 31, 2013, our investment portfolio consisted of outstanding loans to 58 portfolio companies, totaling approximately $237.7 million inaggregate principal amount (including SBIC I LP’s $49.0 million in loans to eight portfolio companies), of which 96% were senior secured loans, as well asSBIC I LP’s approximately $7.4 million in equity investments, at fair value, in the same eight portfolio companies in which it held debt investments. Ourinvestment portfolio encompassed a broad range of geographical regions and industries. As of December 31, 2013, we had unfunded commitments of $4.8million for three portfolio companies, including $3.3 million for two portfolio companies of SBIC I LP.

Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than we do. Somecompetitors may have access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or differentrisk assessments, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more relationships than us. Further, many of ourcompetitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC, or to the distribution and other requirements we mustsatisfy to maintain our RIC status. We expect to continue to use the expertise of the investment professionals of OFS and its affiliates to which we have access, to assess investment risksand determine appropriate pricing for our investments in portfolio companies. In addition, we expect that the relationships of the senior members of OFS andits affiliates will enable us to learn about, and compete effectively for, financing opportunities with attractive middle-market companies in the industries inwhich we seek to invest. For additional information concerning the competitive risks we face, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Business andStructure—We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities, which could reduce returns and result in losses.” Administration We do not have any direct employees, and our day-to-day investment operations are managed by OFS Advisor. We have a chief executive officer, chieffinancial officer, chief compliance officer, chief accounting officer, and corporate secretary and, to the extent necessary, our board of directors may elect toappoint additional officers going forward. Our officers are employees of OFSC, an affiliate of OFS Advisor, and a portion of the compensation paid to ourofficers are paid by us pursuant to the Administration Agreement. All of our executive officers are also officers of OFS Advisor. See “—Management andOther Agreements.” Management And Other Agreements OFS Advisor is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act. OFS Advisor is a wholly owned subsidiary of OFSAM. Subject to the overallsupervision of our board of directors and in accordance with the 1940 Act, OFS Advisor manages our day-to-day operations and provides investmentadvisory services to us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, OFS Advisor: •determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes; •assists us in determining what securities we purchase, retain or sell; •identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments we make (including performing due diligence on our prospective portfoliocompanies); and •executes, closes, services and monitors the investments we make. Certain personnel of OFS conduct activities on our behalf directly through, and under the supervision of, OFS Advisor. OFS Advisor’s services underthe Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive. Pursuant to a Staffing Agreement between OFSC and OFS Advisor, OFSC has agreed to provide OFSAdvisor with the resources to fulfill its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement. These resources include staffing by experienced investmentprofessionals and access to the senior investment personnel of OFSC, pursuant to which each member of the Advisor Investment Committee has committed toserve in such capacity (including Mr. Ressler, who is currently the Chairman of the Advisor Investment Committee). These personnel services are providedunder the Staffing Agreement on a direct cost reimbursement basis to OFS Advisor. 13 Investment Advisory Agreement Management and Incentive Fee Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor and subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors and in accordancewith the 1940 Act, OFS Advisor provides investment advisory services to us. For providing these services, OFS Advisor receives a fee from us, consisting oftwo components—a base management fee and an incentive fee. From the completion of our IPO through October 31, 2013, the base management fee wascalculated at an annual rate of 0.875% based on the average value of our total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchasedwith borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity), adjusted for stock issuances and stock purchases, at the end of the two mostrecently completed calendar quarters. Beginning on November 1, 2013, the base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% based on theaverage value of our total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned byany consolidated entity), adjusted for stock issuances and stock purchases, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. We have electedto exclude from the base management fee calculation any base management fee that would be owed in respect of the intangible asset and goodwill resultingfrom our acquisitions of the remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December 4, 2013. The base management fee is payable quarterlyin arrears. Base management fees for any partial quarter are prorated based on the number of days in the quarter. The incentive fee has two parts. One part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for thequarter. “Pre-incentive fee net investment income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such ascommitment, origination and sourcing, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies but excluding feesfor providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, anyexpenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding theincentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, orOID, debt instruments with PIK 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 gains, realized losses, unrealized capital appreciation or unrealized capitaldepreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that we may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where we incur a loss. For example, if wereceive pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate (as defined below) for a quarter, we will pay the applicable incentive fee even ifwe have incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and beforetaking into account any incentive fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a fixed “hurdlerate” of 2.0% per quarter. If market interest rates rise, we may be able to invest our funds in debt instruments that provide for a higher return, which wouldincrease our pre-incentive fee net investment income and make it easier for OFS Advisor to surpass the fixed hurdle rate and receive an incentive fee based onsuch net investment income. There is no accumulation of amounts on the hurdle rate from quarter to quarter and, accordingly, there is no clawback ofamounts previously paid if subsequent quarters are below the quarterly hurdle rate, and there is no delay of payment if prior quarters are below the quarterlyhurdle rate. Pre-incentive fee net investment income fees are prorated for any partial quarter based on the number of days in such quarter. 14 We pay OFS Advisor an 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 the pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate; •100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, thatexceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5% in any calendar quarter. We refer to this portion of our pre-incentive fee net investment income(which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5%) as the “catch-up” provision. The catch-up is meant to provide OFS Advisor with 20.0% ofthe pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in anycalendar quarter; and •20.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter. The following is a graphical representation of the calculation of the income-related portion of the incentive fee: Quarterly Incentive Fee Based on Net Investment Income 15 The second part of the incentive fee (the “Capital Gains Fee”) is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upontermination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and is calculated at the end of each applicable year by subtracting (a) the sumof our cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and our aggregate unrealized capital depreciation from (b) our cumulative aggregate realized capitalgains. If such amount is positive at the end of such year, then the Capital Gains Fee for such year is equal to 20.0% of such amount, less the aggregate amountof Capital Gains Fees paid in all prior years. If such amount is negative, then there is no Capital Gains Fee for such year. The Company accrues the CapitalGains Fee if, on a cumulative basis, the sum of net realized capital gains and (losses) plus net unrealized appreciation and (depreciation) is positive. The cumulative aggregate realized capital gains are calculated as the sum of the differences, if positive, between (a) the net sales price of eachinvestment in our portfolio when sold and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. The cumulative aggregate realized capital losses are calculated as the sum of the amounts by which (a) the net sales price of each investment in ourportfolio when sold is less than (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. The aggregate unrealized capital depreciation is calculated as the sum of the differences, if negative, between (a) the valuation of each investment inour portfolio as of the applicable Capital Gains Fee calculation date and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment as of the close of our IPO.Unrealized capital appreciation is accrued, but not paid until said appreciation is realized. We accrue the Capital Gains Fee if, on a cumulative basis, the sumof the net realized capital gains (and losses) plus net unrealized appreciation (and depreciation) is positive. The Capital Gains Fee for any partial year isprorated based on the number of days in such year. The Investment Advisor has elected to exclude from the Capital Gain Fee calculation any incentive fee that would be owed in respect of the realizedgain on step acquisition resulting from Tamarix Acquisitions. We did not incur any incentive fee expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 or for theperiod November 8, 2012 through December 31, 2012. Examples of Incentive Fee Calculation Example 1—Income Related Portion of Incentive Fee: Assumptions •Hurdle rate(1) = 2.0% •Management fee(2) = 0.44% •Other estimated expenses (legal, accounting, custodian, transfer agent, etc.)(3) = 0.20% (1)Represents a quarter of the 8.0% annualized hurdle rate. (2)Represents a quarter of the 1.75% annualized management fee, which became effective October 31, 2013. (3)Excludes estimated offering expenses. Alternative 1 Additional Assumptions •Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.) = 1.25% •Pre-incentive fee net investment income (investment income – (management fee + other expenses)) = 0.61% Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate, therefore there is no incentive fee. Alternative 2 Additional Assumptions •Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.) = 2.80% •Pre-incentive fee net investment income (investment income – (management fee + other expenses)) = 2.16% 16 Pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds hurdle rate, therefore there is an incentive fee. Incentive Fee=100% × “Catch-Up” + the greater of 0% AND (20% × (pre-incentive fee net investment income – 2.5%)) =(100% ×(2.16%) – 2.0%)) + 0% =100% × 0.16% =0.16% Alternative 3 Additional Assumptions •Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.) = 3.50% •Pre-incentive fee net investment income (investment income – (management fee + other expenses)) = 2.86% Pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds hurdle rate, therefore there is an incentive fee. Incentive Fee=100% × “Catch-Up” + the greater of 0% AND (20% × (pre-incentive fee net investment income – 2.5%)) =(100% ×(2.5% – 2.0%)) +(20% ×(2.86% – 2.5%)) =0.5% +(20% × 0.36%) =0.5% + 0.07% =0.57% Example 2—Capital Gains Portion of Incentive Fee: Alternative 1 Assumptions •Year 1: $20 million investment made in Company A (“Investment A”), and $30 million investment made in Company B (“Investment B”) •Year 2: Investment A is sold for $50 million and fair market value (“FMV”) of Investment B determined to be $32 million •Year 3: FMV of Investment B determined to be $25 million •Year 4: Investment B sold for $31 million The capital gains portion of the incentive fee, if any, would be: •Year 1: None (no sales transactions) •Year 2: $6 million (20% multiplied by $30 million realized capital gains on sale of Investment A) •Year 3: None; $5 million (20% multiplied by $30 million cumulative realized capital gains less $5 million cumulative unrealized capitaldepreciation) less $6 million (Capital Gains Fee paid in Year 2) •Year 4: $200,000; $6.2 million (20% multiplied by $31 million cumulative realized capital gains) less $6 million (Capital Gains Fee paid in Year2) 17 Alternative 2 Assumptions •Year 1: $20 million investment made in Company A (“Investment A”), $30 million investment made in Company B (“Investment B”) and $25million investment made in Company C (“Investment C”) •Year 2: Investment A sold for $50 million, FMV of Investment B determined to be $25 million and FMV of Investment C determined to be $25million •Year 3: FMV of Investment B determined to be $27 million and Investment C sold for $30 million •Year 4: FMV of Investment B determined to be $35 million •Year 5: Investment B sold for $20 million The capital gains portion of the incentive fee, if any, would be: •Year 1: None (no sales transactions) •Year 2: $5 million (20% multiplied by $30 million realized capital gains on Investment A less $5 million unrealized capital depreciation onInvestment B) •Year 3: $1.4 million; $6.4 million (20% multiplied by $32 million ($35 million cumulative realized capital gains on Investment A andInvestment C less $3 million cumulative unrealized capital depreciation on Investment B)) less $5 million (Capital Gains Fee paid in Year 2) •Year 4: $0.6 million; $7 million (20% multiplied by $35 million (cumulative realized capital gains on Investment A and Investment C)) less $6.4million (cumulative Capital Gains Fee paid in all prior years) •Year 5: None; $5 million (20% multiplied by $25 million ($35 million cumulative realized capital gains on Investments A and C less $10 millionrealized capital losses on Investment B)) less $7 million (cumulative Capital Gains Fee paid in all prior years)) Payment of Our Expenses Our primary operating expenses include interest expense due under the OFS Capital WM credit facility (“OFS Capital WM Facility”) and SBAdebentures, the payment of fees to OFS Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement, management fees payable to the loan manager under the OFSCapital WM Facility, professional fees, and our allocable portion of overhead expenses under the Administration Agreement and other operating costsdescribed below. Additionally, we pay interest expense on any outstanding debt under any new credit facility or other debt instrument we may enter into. Webear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, whether incurred by us directly or on our behalf by a third party,including: •the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services; •the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of our common stock and other securities; •fees payable to third parties relating to making investments, including out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with performing due diligenceand reviews of prospective investments; •transfer agent and custodial fees; •out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts; •federal and state registration fees and any stock exchange listing fees; •U.S. federal, state and local taxes; •independent directors’ fees and expenses; 18 •brokerage commissions; •fidelity bond, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and other insurance premiums; •direct costs, such as printing, mailing and long-distance telephone; •fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs; •costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and other applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws; and •other expenses incurred by either OFS Services or us in connection with administering our business, including payments under theAdministration Agreement that will be based upon our allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of our board of directors) ofoverhead. Duration and Termination Unless terminated earlier as described below, the Investment Advisory Agreement will remain in effect from year to year if approved annually by ourboard of directors or by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities, and, in either case, if also approved by amajority of our directors who are not “interested persons” as defined in the 1940 Act. The Investment Advisory Agreement automatically terminates in theevent of its assignment, as defined in the 1940 Act, by OFS Advisor and may be terminated by either party without penalty upon not less than 60 days’written notice to the other. The holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities may also terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement withoutpenalty upon not less than 60 days’ written notice. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Business and Structure—We are dependent upon theOFS senior professionals for our future success and upon their access to the investment professionals and partners of OFS and its affiliates.” Indemnification The Investment Advisory Agreement provides that OFS Advisor and its affiliates and its and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, members,managers, shareholders and employees are entitled to indemnification from us from and against any claims or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees andother expenses reasonably incurred, arising out of or in connection with our business and operations or any action taken or omitted on our behalf pursuant toauthority granted by the Investment Advisory Agreement, except where attributable to willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performanceof such person’s duties, or reckless disregard of such person’s obligations and duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement. Board Approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement Our board, including our independent directors, approved the Investment Advisory Agreement at a meeting held on November 5, 2013. In reaching adecision to approve the investment advisory agreement, the board of directors reviewed a significant amount of information and considered, among otherthings: •the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided to us by OFS Advisors; •the fee structures of comparable externally managed business development companies that engage in similar investing activities; •our projected operating expenses and expense ratio compared to business development companies with similar investment objectives; •any existing and potential sources of indirect income to OFS Advisors from its relationship with us and the profitability of that relationship,including through the Investment Advisory Agreement; •information about the services to be performed and the personnel performing such services under the Investment Advisory Agreement; and •the organizational capability and financial condition of OFS Advisor and its affiliates. Based on the information reviewed and the discussion thereof, the board of directors, including a majority of the non-interested directors, concludedthat the investment advisory fee rates are reasonable in relation to the services to be provided and approved the Investment Advisory Agreement as being inthe best interests of our shareholders. 19 Administration Agreement Pursuant to an Administration Agreement, OFS Services furnishes us with office facilities and equipment, necessary software licenses and subscriptionsand clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, OFS Services performs, or oversees theperformance of, our required administrative services, which include being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparingreports to our shareholders and all other reports and materials required to be filed with the SEC or any other regulatory authority. In addition, OFS Servicesassists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, oversee the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reportsto our shareholders, and generally oversee the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us byothers. Under the Administration Agreement, OFS Services would provide managerial assistance on our behalf to certain portfolio companies that accept ouroffer to provide such assistance. Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an amount based upon our allocable portion (subject to thereview and approval of our board of directors) of OFS Services’ overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rentand our allocable portion of the cost of our officers, including our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief compliance officer, chief accountingofficer, and corporate secretary, and their respective staffs. The Administration Agreement may be renewed annually with the approval of our board ofdirectors, including a majority of our directors who are not “interested persons.” The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party withoutpenalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. To the extent that OFS Services outsources any of its functions we pay the fees associated with suchfunctions on a direct basis without profit to OFS Services. Indemnification The Administration Agreement provides that OFS Services and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, members, managers, shareholders andemployees are entitled to indemnification from us from and against any claims or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonablyincurred, arising out of or in connection with our business and operations or any action taken or omitted on our behalf pursuant to authority granted by theAdministration Agreement, except where attributable to willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of such person’s duties orreckless disregard of such person’s obligations and duties under the Administration Agreement. License Agreement We have entered into a license agreement with OFSAM under which OFSAM has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use thename “OFS.” Under this agreement, we have a right to use the “OFS” name for so long as OFS Advisor or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser.Other than with respect to this limited license, we have no legal right to the “OFS” name. This license agreement will remain in effect for so long as theInvestment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor is in effect. Staffing Agreement We do not have any internal management capacity or employees. We depend on the diligence, skill and network of business contacts of the OFS seniorprofessionals to achieve our investment objective. OFS Advisor is a subsidiary of OFSAM and depends upon access to the investment professionals and otherresources of OFSAM and its affiliates to fulfill its obligations to us under the Investment Advisory Agreement. OFS Advisor also depends upon OFSAM toobtain access to deal flow generated by the professionals of OFSAM and its affiliates. Under the Staffing Agreement between OFSC and OFS Advisor, OFSCprovides OFS Advisor with the resources necessary to fulfill these obligations. The Staffing Agreement provides that OFSC make available to OFS Advisorexperienced investment professionals and access to the senior investment personnel of OFSC for purposes of evaluating, negotiating, structuring, closing andmonitoring our investments. The Staffing Agreement also includes a commitment that the members of the Advisor Investment Committee serve in suchcapacity (including Mr. Ressler, who is currently the Chairman of the Advisor Investment Committee). The Staffing Agreement is renewable by the parties thereto on an annual basis. Services under the Staffing Agreement are provided to OFS Advisor on adirect cost reimbursement basis, and such fees are not our obligation. OFSC also has entered into a staffing and corporate services agreement with OFS Services. Under this agreement, OFS Services makes available toOFSC experienced investment professionals and access to the administrative resources of OFS Services. 20 Regulation We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The 1940 Act contains prohibitions and restrictions relating to transactions betweenBDCs and their affiliates (including any investment advisers or sub-advisers), principal underwriters and affiliates of those affiliates or underwriters andrequires that a majority of the directors be persons other than “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the 1940 Act. In addition, the 1940 Act provides that we may not change the nature of our business so as to cease to be, or to withdraw our election as, a BDC unlessapproved by “a majority of our outstanding voting securities” as defined in the 1940 Act. A majority of the outstanding voting securities of a company isdefined under the 1940 Act as the lesser of: (a) 67% or more of such company’s voting securities present at a meeting if more than 50% of the outstandingvoting securities of such company are present or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of such company. We do notanticipate any substantial change in the nature of our business. We are not generally able to issue and sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share. We may, however, issue and sell our commonstock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the then-current net asset value of our common stock if (1) our board ofdirectors determines that such sale is in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders, and (2) our shareholders have approved our policy andpractice of making such sales within the preceding 12 months. In any such case, the price at which our securities are to be issued and sold may not be lessthan a price which, in the determination of our board of directors, closely approximates the market value of such securities. As a BDC, we are required to meet a coverage ratio of the value of total assets to senior securities, which include all of our borrowings and any preferredstock we may issue in the future, of at least 200%. We may also be prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions withour affiliates without the prior approval of our board of directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, prior approval by the SEC. Recently, legislation was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives intended to revise certain regulations applicable to BDCs. The legislationprovides for (i) increasing the amount of funds BDCs may borrow by reducing asset to debt limitations from 2:1 to 3:2, (ii) permitting BDCs to fileregistration statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that incorporate information from already-filed reports by reference, (iii) utilizingother streamlined registration processes afforded to operating companies, and (iv) allowing BDCs to own investment adviser subsidiaries. There are noassurances as to when the legislation will be enacted by Congress, if at all, or, if enacted, what final form the legislation would take. We may invest up to 100% of our assets in securities acquired directly from issuers in privately negotiated transactions. With respect to such securities,we may, for the purpose of public resale, be deemed an “underwriter” as that term is defined in the Securities Act. Our intention is to not write (sell) or buy putor call options to manage risks associated with the publicly traded securities of our portfolio companies, except that we may enter into hedging transactionsto manage the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. However, we may purchase or otherwise receive warrants to purchase the common stock of ourportfolio companies in connection with acquisition financing or other investments. Similarly, in connection with an acquisition, we may acquire rights torequire the issuers of acquired securities or their affiliates to repurchase them under certain circumstances. We also do not intend to acquire securities issuedby any investment company that exceed the limits imposed by the 1940 Act. Under these limits, except for registered money market funds, we generallycannot acquire more than 3% of the voting stock of any registered investment company, invest more than 5% of the value of our total assets in the securitiesof one investment company, or invest more than 10% of the value of our total assets in the securities of more than one investment company. With regard tothat portion of our portfolio invested in securities issued by investment companies, it should be noted that such investments might subject our shareholdersto additional expenses as they will be indirectly responsible for the costs and expenses of such companies. None of our investment policies are fundamentaland may be changed without shareholder approval. 21 Qualifying Assets Under the 1940 Act, a BDC may not acquire any asset other than assets of the type listed in section 55(a) of the 1940 Act, which are referred to as“qualifying assets,” unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the company’s total assets. The principal categoriesof qualifying assets relevant to our business are the following: (a)Securities purchased in transactions not involving any public offering from the issuer of such securities, which issuer (subject to certain limitedexceptions) is an eligible portfolio company, or from any person who is, or has been during the preceding 13 months, an affiliated person of aneligible portfolio company, or from any other person, subject to such rules as may be prescribed by the SEC. An eligible portfolio company isdefined in the 1940 Act as any issuer that: •is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place of business in, the United States; •is not an investment company (other than a small business investment company wholly-owned by the BDC) or a company that would bean investment company but for certain exclusions under the 1940 Act; and •satisfies either of the following: •does not have any class of securities listed on a national securities exchange or has any class of securities listed on a nationalsecurities exchange subject to a $250 million market capitalization maximum; or •is controlled by a BDC or a group of companies including a BDC, the BDC actually exercises a controlling influence over themanagement or policies of the eligible portfolio company, and, as a result, the BDC has an affiliated person who is a director of theeligible portfolio company. (b)Securities of any eligible portfolio company which we control. (c)Securities purchased in a private transaction from a U.S. issuer that is not an investment company or from an affiliated person of the issuer, or intransactions incident to such a private transaction, if the issuer is in bankruptcy and subject to reorganization or if the issuer, immediately prior tothe purchase of its securities, was unable to meet its obligations as they came due without material assistance other than conventional lending orfinancing arrangements. (d)Securities of an eligible portfolio company purchased from any person in a private transaction if there is no ready market for such securities andwe already own 60% of the outstanding equity of the eligible portfolio company. (e)Securities received in exchange for or distributed on or with respect to securities described above, or pursuant to the exercise of warrants or rightsrelating to such securities. (f)Cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities or high-quality debt securities that mature in one year or less from the date of investment. Control, as defined by the 1940 Act, is presumed to exist where a BDC beneficially owns more than 25% of the outstanding voting securities of theportfolio company. The regulations defining qualifying assets may change over time. We may adjust our investment focus as needed to comply with and/or take advantageof any regulatory, legislative, administrative or judicial actions in this area. Managerial Assistance to Portfolio Companies A BDC must have been organized and have its principal place of business in the United States and must be operated for the purpose of makinginvestments in the types of securities described in (a), (b) or (c) above. However, in order to count portfolio securities as qualifying assets for the purpose ofthe 70% test, the BDC must either control the issuer of the securities or must offer to make available to the issuer of the securities (other than small andsolvent companies described above) significant managerial assistance. Where the BDC purchases such securities in conjunction with one or more otherpersons acting together, the BDC will satisfy this test if one of the other persons in the group makes available such managerial assistance, although this maynot be the sole method by which the BDC satisfies the requirement to make available managerial assistance. Making available managerial assistance means,among other things, any arrangement whereby the BDC, through its directors, officers or employees, offers to provide, and, if accepted, does so provide,significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company. 22 Temporary Investments Pending investment in other types of qualifying assets, as described above, our investments may consist of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. governmentsecurities, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less from the date of investment, which we refer to,collectively, as temporary investments, so that 70% of our assets are qualifying assets or temporary investments. Typically, we invest in highly ratedcommercial paper, U.S. Government agency notes, U.S. Treasury bills or in repurchase agreements relating to such securities that are fully collateralized bycash or securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. A repurchase agreement involves the purchase by an investor, such as us, of a specifiedsecurity and the simultaneous agreement by the seller to repurchase it at an agreed-upon future date and at a price that is greater than the purchase price by anamount that reflects an agreed-upon interest rate. Consequently, repurchase agreements are functionally similar to loans. There is no percentage restriction onthe proportion of our assets that may be invested in such repurchase agreements. However, the 1940 Act and certain diversification tests in order to qualify asa RIC for federal income tax purposes typically require us to limit the amount we invest with any one counterparty. Accordingly, we do not intend to enterinto repurchase agreements with a single counterparty in excess of this limit. OFS Advisor monitors the creditworthiness of the counterparties with which weenter into repurchase agreement transactions. Warrants and Options Under the 1940 Act, a BDC is subject to restrictions on the amount of warrants, options, restricted stock or rights to purchase shares of capital stock thatit may have outstanding at any time. Under the 1940 Act, we may generally only offer warrants provided that (i) the warrants expire by their terms within tenyears, (ii) the exercise or conversion price is not less than the current market value at the date of issuance, (iii) our shareholders authorize the proposal to issuesuch warrants, and our board of directors approves such issuance on the basis that the issuance is in the best interests of OFS Capital and its shareholders and(iv) if the warrants are accompanied by other securities, the warrants are not separately transferable unless no class of such warrants and the securitiesaccompanying them has been publicly distributed. The 1940 Act also provides that the amount of our voting securities that would result from the exercise ofall outstanding warrants, as well as options and rights, at the time of issuance may not exceed 25% of our outstanding voting securities In particular, theamount of capital stock that would result from the conversion or exercise of all outstanding warrants, options or rights to purchase capital stock cannotexceed 25% of the BDC’s total outstanding shares of capital stock. Senior Securities We are permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our assetcoverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 200% immediately after each such issuance. In addition, while any senior securities remainoutstanding, we must make provisions to prohibit any distribution to our shareholders or the repurchase of such securities or shares unless we meet theapplicable asset coverage ratios at the time of the distribution or repurchase. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value of our total assets fortemporary or emergency purposes without regard to asset coverage. For a discussion of the risks associated with leverage, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—RisksRelated to our Business and Structure—Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to and the way in which we raise additional capital.As a BDC, we will need to raise additional capital, which will expose us to risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage.” Codes of Ethics We and OFS Advisor have each adopted a code of ethics pursuant to Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act that establishes procedures for personalinvestments and restricts certain personal securities transactions. Personnel subject to each code may invest in securities for their personal investmentaccounts, including securities that may be purchased or held by us, so long as such investments are made in accordance with the code’s requirements. Ourcode of ethics is available, free of charge, on our website at www.ofscapital.com. You may also read and copy the code of ethics at the SEC’s Public ReferenceRoom in Washington, D.C. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (800) SEC-0330. In addition,the code of ethics is attached as an exhibit to pre-effective amendment no. 3 to the registration statement on Form N-2 filed on March 17, 2011 and isavailable on the EDGAR Database on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. You may also obtain copies of the code of ethics, after paying a duplicatingfee, by electronic request at the following e-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov, or by writing the SEC’s Public Reference Section, 100 F Street, N.E.,Washington, D.C. 20549. Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures We have delegated our proxy voting responsibility to OFS Advisor. The proxy voting policies and procedures of OFS Advisor are set out below. Theguidelines are reviewed periodically by OFS Advisor and our directors who are not “interested persons,” and, accordingly, are subject to change. For purposesof these proxy voting policies and procedures described below, “we,” “our” and “us” refer to OFS Advisor. 23 Introduction As an investment adviser registered under the Advisers Act, we have a fiduciary duty to act solely in the best interests of our clients. As part of this duty,we recognize that we must vote client securities in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in the best interests of our clients. These policies and procedures for voting proxies for our investment advisory clients are intended to comply with Section 206 of, and Rule 206(4)-6under, the Advisers Act. Proxy Policies We vote proxies relating to our portfolio securities in what we perceive to be the best interest of our clients. We review on a case-by-case basis eachproposal submitted to a shareholder vote to determine its effect on the portfolio securities held by our clients. In most cases we will vote in favor of proposalsthat we believe are likely to increase the economic value of the underlying portfolio securities held by our clients. Although we will generally vote againstproposals that may have a negative effect on our clients’ portfolio securities, we may vote for such a proposal if there exist compelling long-term reasons todo so. Our proxy voting decisions are made by those senior officers who are responsible for monitoring each of our clients’ investments. To ensure that ourvote is not the product of a conflict of interest, we require that (1) anyone involved in the decision-making process disclose to our chief compliance officerany potential conflict that he or she is aware of and any contact that he or she has had with any interested party regarding a proxy vote; and (2) employeesinvolved in the decision-making process or vote administration are prohibited from revealing how we intend to vote on a proposal in order to reduce anyattempted influence from interested parties. Where conflicts of interest may be present, we will disclose such conflicts to our client, including with respect toOFS Capital, those directors who are not interested persons and we may request guidance from such persons on how to vote such proxies for their account. Proxy Voting Records You may obtain information about how we voted proxies for OFS Capital, free of charge, by making a written request for proxy voting information to:OFS Capital Corporation, 2850 West Golf Road, 5th Floor, Rolling Meadows, Illinois 60008, Attention: Investor Relations, or by calling OFS CapitalCorporation at (847) 734-2060. The SEC also maintains a website at http://www.sec.gov that contains such information. Privacy Principles We are committed to maintaining the privacy of our shareholders and to safeguarding their nonpublic personal information. The following informationis provided to help you understand what personal information we collect, how we protect that information and why, in certain cases, we may shareinformation with select other parties. Generally, we do not receive any nonpublic personal information relating to our shareholders, although certain nonpublic personal information of ourshareholders may become available to us. We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our shareholders or former shareholders to anyone,except as permitted by law or as is necessary in order to service shareholder accounts (for example, to a transfer agent or third-party administrator). We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about our shareholders to employees of OFS Advisor and its affiliates with a legitimate businessneed for the information. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards designed to protect the nonpublic personal information of ourshareholders. Compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the NASDAQ Global Select Market Corporate Governance Regulations The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) imposes a wide variety of regulatory requirements on publicly-held companies and theirinsiders. Many of these requirements affect us. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has required us to review our policies and procedures to determine whether wecomply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. We will continue to monitor our compliance with all future regulationsthat are adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and will take actions necessary to ensure that we are in compliance therewith. In addition, The NASDAQ Global Select Market has adopted various corporate governance requirements as part of its listing standards. We believe weare in compliance with such corporate governance listing standards. We will continue to monitor our compliance with all future listing standards and willtake actions necessary to ensure that we are in compliance therewith. 24 Small Business Investment Company Regulations As noted above, on December 4, 2013, we acquired the remaining general and limited partnership interests in SBIC I LP, making it a wholly-ownedsubsidiary. SBIC I LP is an SBIC and must maintain compliance with SBA regulations. SBICs are designed to stimulate the flow of private equity capital to eligible small businesses. Under SBA regulations, SBICs may make loans toeligible small businesses and invest in the equity securities of small businesses. The SBIC license allows SBIC I LP to receive SBA-guaranteed debenturefunding, subject to the issuance of a leverage commitment by the SBA and other customary procedures. SBA-guaranteed debentures are non-recourse, interestonly debentures with interest payable semi-annually and have a ten year maturity. The principal amount of SBA-guaranteed debentures is not required to bepaid prior to maturity but may be prepaid without penalty twice each year on certain dates. The interest rate of SBA-guaranteed debentures is fixed at the timeof issuance at a market-driven spread over U.S. Treasury Notes with 10-year maturities. SBA regulations currently limit the amount that an SBIC may borrow to up to a maximum of $150 million when it has at least $75 million in regulatorycapital, receives a leverage commitment from the SBA and has been through an examination by the SBA subsequent to licensing. For two or more SBICsunder common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA-provided leverage cannot exceed $225 million. A proposed bill in the U.S. Senate, theExpanding Access to Capital for Entrepreneurial Act, or Senate Bill 511, would increase the total SBIC leverage capacity for affiliated SBIC funds from $225million to $350 million. However, the ultimate form and likely outcome of such legislation or any similar legislation cannot be predicted. The investments of an SBIC are limited to loans to and equity securities of eligible small businesses. Under present SBA regulations, eligible smallbusinesses generally include businesses that (together with their affiliates) have a tangible net worth not exceeding $18 million and have average annual netincome after U.S. federal income taxes not exceeding $6 million (average net income to be computed without benefit of any carryover loss) for the two mostrecent fiscal years. In addition, an SBIC must devote 25% of its investment activity to “smaller concerns,” as defined by the SBA. A smaller concern generallyincludes businesses that have a tangible net worth not exceeding $6 million and have average annual net income after U.S. federal income taxes notexceeding $2 million (average net income to be computed without benefit of any net carryover loss) for the two most recent fiscal years. The SBA prohibits an SBIC from providing funds to small businesses for certain purposes, such as relending, real estate or investing in companiesoutside of the United States, and providing funds to businesses engaged in a few prohibited industries and to certain “passive” (i.e., non-operating)companies. In addition, without prior SBA approval, an SBIC may not invest an amount equal to more than approximately 30% of the SBIC’s regulatorycapital in any one company and its affiliates. The SBA requires that SBICs invest idle funds in accordance with SBA regulations. SBA regulations also include restrictions on a “change of control”or other transfers of limited partnership interests in an SBIC. In addition, SBIC I LP may also be limited in its ability to make distributions to us if it does nothave sufficient accumulated net profit, in accordance with SBA regulations. SBIC I LP is subject to regulation and oversight by the SBA, including requirements with respect to maintaining certain minimum financial ratios andother covenants. Receipt of the SBIC license and an SBA leverage commitment does not assure that SBIC I LP will receive SBA guaranteed debenturefunding, and such funding is dependent upon SBIC I LP’s continuing to be in compliance with SBA regulations and policies. The SBA, as a creditor, will have a superior claim to the SBIC I LP’s assets over our shareholders in the event that SBIC I LP is liquidated or the SBAexercises its remedies under the SBA debentures issued by SBIC I LP in the event of a default. Exemptive Relief On November 26, 2013, we received an exemptive order which allows us to exclude SBA guaranteed indebtedness from the definition of seniorsecurities in our statutory 200% asset coverage ratio. Other We are subject to periodic examination by the SEC for compliance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, and the 1940 Act. We are required to provide and maintain a bond issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company to protect us against larceny and embezzlement.Furthermore, as a BDC, we are prohibited from protecting any director or officer against any liability to OFS Capital or our shareholders arising from willfulmisfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such person’s office. 25 We and OFS Advisor each have adopted and implemented written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violation of relevant federalsecurities laws, will review these policies and procedures annually for their adequacy and the effectiveness of their implementation, and have designated achief compliance officer to be responsible for administering the policies and procedures. We may be prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of ourboard of directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, prior approval by the SEC. The SEC has interpreted the BDC prohibition on transactionswith affiliates to prohibit all “joint transactions” between entities that share a common investment adviser. In connection with our election to be regulated asa BDC, we will not be permitted to co-invest with other funds managed by OFSAM or one of its affiliates in certain types of negotiated investmenttransactions unless we receive exemptive relief from the SEC permitting us to do so. Moreover, we may be limited in our ability to make follow-oninvestments or liquidate our existing equity investments in such companies. Although we intend to apply to the SEC for exemptive relief to permit such co-investment and liquidity transactions, subject to certain conditions, we cannot be certain that our application for such relief will be granted or whatconditions will be placed on such relief. The staff of the SEC has granted no-action relief permitting purchases of a single class of privately placed securities provided that the advisernegotiates no term other than price and certain other conditions are met. As a result, we only expect to co-invest on a concurrent basis with other fundsadvised by OFS Advisor when each of us will own the same securities of the issuer and when no term is negotiated other than price. Any such investmentwould be made, subject to compliance with existing regulatory guidance, applicable regulations and OFS Advisor’s allocation policy. If opportunities arisethat would otherwise be appropriate for us and for another fund advised by OFS Advisor to invest in different securities of the same issuer, OFS Advisor willneed to decide which fund will proceed with the investment. The decision by OFS Advisor to allocate an opportunity to another entity could cause us toforego an investment opportunity that we otherwise would have made. Moreover, except in certain circumstances, we will be unable to invest in any issuer inwhich another fund advised by OFS Advisor has previously invested. Our internet address is www.ofscapital.com. We make available free of charge on our website our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, proxy statement and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file suchmaterial with, or furnish it to, the SEC. Material u.s. Federal income tax considerations Election to be Taxed as a RIC We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally do not have to pay corporate-level federal income taxeson any income that we distribute to our shareholders from our tax earnings and profits. To maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things,meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements, as described below. In addition, in order to maintain RIC tax treatment, we mustdistribute to our shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income,” which is generally our net ordinary incomeplus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses (the “Annual Distribution Requirement”). Taxation as a RIC If we: •maintain our qualification as a RIC; and •satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement; then we will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of our income we distribute (or are deemed to distribute) to shareholders. We will besubject to U.S. federal income tax at the regular corporate rates on any income or capital gain not distributed (or deemed distributed) to our shareholders. We will be subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless we distribute in a timely manner an amount at leastequal to the sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) forthe one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year (or, if we have a taxable year that ends on November 30 or December 31 and so elect, for ourtaxable year) and (3) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which we paid no federal income tax, or the Excise TaxAvoidance Requirement. We may choose to retain a portion of our ordinary income and/or capital gain net income in any year and pay the 4% U.S. federalexcise tax on the retained amounts. 26 In order to maintain our qualification as a RIC for federal income tax purposes, we must, among other things: •continue to qualify as a BDC under the 1940 Act at all times during each taxable year; •derive in each taxable year at least 90% of our gross income from dividends, interest, certain payments with respect to loans of stock andsecurities, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities, or foreign currencies and other income (including but not limited to gainsfrom options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to our business of investing in such stock, securities or currencies, and net incomederived from interests in “qualified publicly traded partnerships,” as such term is defined in the Code, or the 90% Income Test; and •diversify our holdings so that at the end of each quarter of the taxable year: •at least 50% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and othersecurities, with such other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of our assets and10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer; and •no more than 25% of the value of our assets is invested in the securities, other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs,of one issuer, of two or more issuers that we control (as determined under applicable tax rules) and that are engaged in the same, similar orrelated trades or businesses or of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships (the “Diversification Tests”). We may invest in partnerships, including qualified publicly traded partnerships, which may result in our being subject to state, local or foreign income,franchise or withholding liabilities. For federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income in circumstances in which we do not receive a correspondingpayment in cash. For example, if we hold debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as having OID, we must include in income each year aportion of the OID that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same taxable year.We may also have to include in income other amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as deferred loan origination fees that are paid afterorigination of the loan or are paid in non-cash compensation such as warrants or stock. Certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Company are subject to U.S.federal and state income taxes. These taxable entities are not consolidated with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax liabilitiesor assets from temporary differences in the recognition of items for financial reporting and income tax purposes at the subsidiaries. We anticipate that a portion of our income may constitute OID or other income required to be included in taxable income prior to receipt of cash.Because any OID or other amounts accrued will be included in our investment company taxable income for the year of the accrual, we may be required tomake a distribution to our shareholders in order to satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement, even though we will not have received any correspondingcash amount. As a result, we may have difficulty meeting the annual distribution requirement necessary to obtain and maintain RIC tax treatment under theCode. We may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital orforgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thusbecome subject to corporate-level income tax. We are authorized to borrow funds and to sell assets in order to satisfy distribution requirements. However, under the 1940 Act, we are not permitted tomake distributions to our shareholders while our debt obligations and other senior securities are outstanding unless certain “asset coverage” tests are met. See“Regulation—Senior Securities.” Moreover, our ability to dispose of assets to meet our distribution requirements may be limited by (1) the illiquid nature ofour portfolio and/or (2) other requirements relating to our status as a RIC, including the Diversification Tests. If we dispose of assets in order to meet theAnnual Distribution Requirement or the Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement, we may make such dispositions at times that, from an investment standpoint,are not advantageous. Certain of our investment practices may be subject to special and complex federal income tax provisions that may, among other things, (1) treatdividends that would otherwise qualify for the dividends received deduction or constitute qualified dividend income as ineligible for such treatment, (2)disallow, suspend or otherwise limit the allowance of certain losses or deductions, (3) convert lower-taxed long-term capital gain into higher-taxed short-termcapital gain or ordinary income, (4) convert an ordinary loss or a deduction into a capital loss (the deductibility of which is more limited), (5) cause us torecognize income or gain without receipt of a corresponding distribution of cash, (6) adversely affect the time as to when a purchase or sale of stock orsecurities is deemed to occur, (7) adversely alter the characterization of certain complex financial transactions and (8) produce income that will not bequalifying income for purposes of the 90% Income Test. We will monitor our transactions and may make certain tax elections to mitigate the potentialadverse effect of these provisions, but there can be no assurance that any adverse effects of these provisions will be mitigated. 27 If we purchase shares in a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”), we may be subject to federal income tax on its allocable share of a portionof any “excess distribution” received on, or any gain from the disposition of, such shares even if our allocable share of such income is distributed as a taxabledividend to its shareholders. Additional charges in the nature of interest generally will be imposed on us in respect of deferred taxes arising from any suchexcess distribution or gain. If we invest in a PFIC and elect to treat the PFIC as a “qualified electing fund” under the Code (a “QEF”), in lieu of the foregoingrequirements, we will be required to include in income each year our proportionate share of the ordinary earnings and net capital gain of the QEF, even ifsuch income is not distributed by the QEF. Alternatively, we may be able to elect to mark-to-market at the end of each taxable year our shares in a PFIC; inthis case, we will recognize as ordinary income our allocable share of any increase in the value of such shares, and as ordinary loss our allocable share of anydecrease in such value to the extent that any such decrease does not exceed prior increases included in its income. Under either election, we may be requiredto recognize in a year income in excess of distributions from PFICs and proceeds from dispositions of PFIC stock during that year, and such income willnevertheless be subject to the Annual Distribution Requirement and will be taken into account for purposes of the 4% excise tax. Some of the income and fees that we may recognize will not satisfy the 90% Income Test. In order to ensure that such income and fees do not disqualifyus as a RIC for a failure to satisfy the 90% Income Test, we may be required to recognize such income and fees directly or indirectly through one or moreentities treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Such corporations will be required to pay U.S. corporate income tax on their earnings,which ultimately will reduce our return on such income and fees. Failure to Qualify as a RIC If we are unable to maintain our qualification for treatment as a RIC, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate rates,regardless of whether we make any distributions to our shareholders. Distributions would not be required, and any distributions would be taxable to ourshareholders as ordinary dividend income that would be eligible for the current 20% maximum rate to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings andprofits (subject to limitations under the Code). Subject to certain limitations under the Code, corporate distributees would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits would be treated first as a return of capital to the extent of theshareholder’s tax basis (reducing that basis accordingly), and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. To qualify again to be taxed as aRIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our shareholders our earnings and profits attributable to non-RIC years. In addition, if wefailed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (theexcess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subjectto taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of ten years, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year. 28 Item 1A.Risk Factors RISK FACTORS Investing in our common stock involves a number of significant risks. In addition to the other information contained in this annual report on Form 10-K, you should consider carefully the following information before making an investment in our common stock. The risks set out below are not the only riskswe face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or not presently deemed material by us might also impair our operations andperformance. If any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Insuch case, our net asset value and the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Risks Related to Our Business and Structure Prior to November 7, 2012, we had not operated as a BDC or qualified to be treated as a RIC, and none of OFS Advisor or its affiliates had ever manageda BDC or a RIC, and we may not be able to operate our business successfully or generate sufficient revenue to make or sustain distributions to ourshareholders. Prior to November 7, 2012, we had not operated as a BDC or qualified to be treated as a RIC, and none of OFS Advisor or its affiliates has ever manageda BDC. As a result of our limited experience as a BDC, we are subject to the business risks and uncertainties associated with new entities of these types,including the risk that we will not achieve our investment objective, or that we will not qualify or maintain our qualification to be treated as a RIC, and thatthe value of your investment could decline substantially. The 1940 Act and the Code impose numerous constraints on the operations of business development companies and RICs. Business developmentcompanies are required, for example, to invest at least 70% of their total assets primarily in securities of U.S. private or thinly traded public companies, cash,cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt instruments that mature in one year or less from the date of investment. Furthermore,any failure to comply with the requirements imposed on business development companies by the 1940 Act could cause the SEC to bring an enforcementaction against us and/or expose us to claims of private litigants. In addition, upon approval of a majority of our shareholders, we may elect to withdraw ourstatus as a BDC. If we decide to withdraw our election, or if we otherwise fail to qualify, or maintain our qualification, as a BDC, we may be subject to thesubstantially greater regulation under the 1940 Act as a closed-end investment company. Compliance with such regulations would significantly decrease ouroperating flexibility, and could significantly increase our costs of doing business. Moreover, qualification for treatment as a RIC requires satisfaction ofsource-of-income, asset diversification and distribution requirements. None of us, OFS Advisor or any of our or their respective affiliates has any experienceoperating under these constraints, which may hinder our ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and to achieve our investmentobjective. We are dependent upon the OFS senior professionals for our future success and upon their access to the investment professionals and partners of OFS andits affiliates. We do not have any internal management capacity or employees. We will depend on the diligence, skill and network of business contacts of the OFSsenior professionals to achieve our investment objective. Our future success will depend, to a significant extent, on the continued service and coordination ofthe OFS senior management team, particularly Glenn Pittson, Senior Managing Director of OFSC, Bilal Rashid, Senior Managing Director of OFSC, JeffreyCerny, Senior Managing Director of OFSC, and Mark Hauser, Senior Managing Director of OFSC. Each of these individuals is an employee at will of OFSCand, with the exception of Mr. Hauser, is not subject to an employment contract. In addition, we rely on the services of Richard Ressler, Chairman of theexecutive committee of OFSAM and Chairman of the Advisor Investment Committee pursuant to a consulting agreement with Orchard Capital. The departureof Mr. Ressler or any of the senior managers of OFSC, or of a significant number of its other investment professionals, could have a material adverse effect onour ability to achieve our investment objective. We expect that OFS Advisor will evaluate, negotiate, structure, close and monitor our investments in accordance with the terms of the InvestmentAdvisory Agreement. We can offer no assurance, however, that OFS senior professionals will continue to provide investment advice to us. If these individualsdo not maintain their existing relationships with OFS and its affiliates and do not develop new relationships with other sources of investment opportunities,we may not be able to grow our investment portfolio or achieve our investment objective. In addition, individuals with whom the OFS senior professionalshave relationships are not obligated to provide us with investment opportunities. Therefore, we can offer no assurance that such relationships will generateinvestment opportunities for us. 29 OFS Advisor is a subsidiary of OFSAM that has no employees and depends upon access to the investment professionals and other resources of OFS andits affiliates to fulfill its obligations to us under the Investment Advisory Agreement. OFS Advisor also depends upon OFS to obtain access to deal flowgenerated by the professionals of OFS and its affiliates. Under a Staffing Agreement between OFSC, a subsidiary of OFSAM that employs all of OFS’spersonnel, and OFS Advisor, OFSC has agreed to provide OFS Advisor with the resources necessary to fulfill these obligations. The Staffing Agreementprovides that OFSC will make available to OFS Advisor experienced investment professionals and access to the senior investment personnel of OFSC forpurposes of evaluating, negotiating, structuring, closing and monitoring our investments. We are not a party to this Staffing Agreement and cannot assureshareholders that OFSC will fulfill its obligations under the agreement. If OFSC fails to perform, we cannot assure shareholders that OFS Advisor will enforcethe Staffing Agreement or that such agreement will not be terminated by either party or that we will continue to have access to the investment professionals ofOFSC and its affiliates or their information and deal flow. The investment committees that oversee our investment activities are provided by OFS Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement, as well asby SBIC I GP. Advisor Investment Committee consists of Richard Ressler (Chairman), Glenn Pittson, Bilal Rashid, and Jeffrey Cerny. The SBIC InvestmentCommittee consists of Mark Hauser, Glenn Pittson, Peter Rothschild, and Peter Fidler. The loss of any member of the Investment Committees or of other OFSsenior professionals would limit our ability to achieve our investment objective and operate as we anticipate. This could have a material adverse effect on ourfinancial condition and results of operation. Our business model depends to a significant extent upon strong referral relationships with financial institutions, sponsors and investment professionals.Any inability of OFS Advisor to maintain or develop these relationships, or the failure of these relationships to generate investment opportunities, couldadversely affect our business. We depend upon OFS Advisor to maintain OFS’s relationships with financial institutions, sponsors and investment professionals, and we will continueto rely to a significant extent upon these relationships to provide us with potential investment opportunities. If OFS Advisor fails to maintain suchrelationships, or to develop new relationships with other sources of investment opportunities, we will not be able to grow our investment portfolio. Inaddition, individuals with whom the principals of OFS Advisor have relationships are not obligated to provide us with investment opportunities, and,therefore, we can offer no assurance that these relationships will generate investment opportunities for us in the future. A substantial portion of our senior secured loan portfolio was purchased by OFS Capital WM, our wholly-owned subsidiary, using borrowed funds and ismanaged by an unaffiliated loan manager. OFS Capital WM financed the purchase of a substantial portion of our loan portfolio using funds borrowed under the OFS Capital WM Facility. Whileinvestors in OFS Capital benefit from the loan assets sold to OFS Capital WM by virtue of our ownership of 100% of the equity interests in OFS Capital WM,they are also be exposed to the risks associated with those assets. For example, lenders have a first lien on the loan assets sold to OFS Capital WM and willhave a superior claim to our claim as an equityholder in any liquidation of OFS Capital WM. In addition, the lender has a first lien on our equity interests inOFS Capital WM and will have a superior claim to a claim by our investors on those equity interests in any liquidation of OFS Capital. Additionally, OFSCapital WM is managed by an affiliate of Madison Capital (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of New York Life Investments), as loan manager, pursuant tothe OFS Capital WM Facility documentation, which prescribes the order in which payments are to be applied and contains other contractual restrictions.Accordingly, our success depends, to a certain degree, on the administration of OFS Capital WM’s portfolio by an unaffiliated loan manager. If the loanmanager is unable to generate sufficient returns to permit payments to us under the OFS Capital WM Facility documentation or defaults in its obligationthereunder, we could be materially and adversely affected. As a result of the amendments to OFS Capital WM Facility in 2012 (“WM 2012 Credit Facility Amendments”), we have substantial additional inputinto certain key management decisions with respect to OFS Capital WM’s portfolio companies, including decisions with respect to amendments to ormodifications of the investments in these entities, or noticing or waiving of defaults or accelerating portfolio loans. While the loan manager for OFS CapitalWM is not required to follow our recommendations, if we make a recommendation with which the loan manager disagrees, the loan manager must at ourdirection commence a process to sell the applicable investment, subject to our right to control the negotiations for such sale and to suspend any such salesprocess. Our financial condition and results of operation will depend on our ability to manage our business effectively. Our ability to achieve our investment objective and grow will depend on our ability to manage our business. This will depend, in turn, on the ability ofthe Investment Committees to identify, invest in and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria. The achievement of our investment objectives ona cost-effective basis will depend upon the execution by the Investment Committees to execute our investment process, their ability to provide competent,attentive and efficient services to us and, to a lesser extent, our access to financing on acceptable terms. OFS Advisor will have substantial responsibilitiesunder the Investment Advisory Agreement. The OFS senior professionals and other personnel of OFS Advisor’s affiliates, including OFSC, may be calledupon to provide managerial assistance to our portfolio companies. These activities may distract them or slow our rate of investment. Any failure to manageour business and our future growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 30 We have potential conflicts of interest related to obligations that OFS Advisor or its affiliates may have to other clients. OFS Advisor and its affiliates manage other assets and CLO funds and may manage other entities in the future, and these other funds and entities mayhave similar or overlapping investment strategies. The members of the Advisor Investment Committee serve or may serve as officers, directors or principals ofentities that operate in the same or a related line of business as we do, or of investment funds or other investment vehicles managed by OFS Advisor or itsaffiliates. Similarly, OFS Advisor and/or its affiliates may have other clients with, similar, different or competing investment objectives. In serving in thesemultiple capacities, they may have obligations to other clients or investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which may not be in the best interests of us orour shareholders. OFS Advisor will seek to allocate investment opportunities among eligible accounts in a manner that is fair and equitable over time andconsistent with its allocation policy. Under this allocation policy, if two or more investment vehicles with similar or overlapping investment strategies are intheir investment periods, an available opportunity will be allocated based on the provisions governing allocations of such investment opportunities in therelevant organizational, offering or similar documents, if any, for such investment vehicles. In the absence of any such provisions, OFS Advisor will considerthe following factors and the weight that should be given with respect to each of these factors: •investment guidelines and/or restrictions, if any, set forth in the applicable organizational, offering or similar documents for the investmentvehicles; •risk and return profile of the investment vehicles; •suitability/priority of a particular investment for the investment vehicles; •if applicable, the targeted position size of the investment for the investment vehicles; •level of available cash for investment with respect to the investment vehicles; •total amount of funds committed to the investment vehicles; and •the age of the investment vehicles and the remaining term of their respective investment periods, if any. There can be no assurance that we will be able to participate in all investment opportunities that are suitable to us. Members of the Investment Committees, OFS Advisor or its affiliates may, from time to time, possess material non-public information, limiting ourinvestment discretion. OFS senior professionals and members of the Investment Committees may serve as directors of, or in a similar capacity with, companies in which weinvest, the securities of which are purchased or sold on our behalf. In the event that material nonpublic information is obtained with respect to suchcompanies, or we become subject to trading restrictions under the internal trading policies of those companies or as a result of applicable law or regulations,we could be prohibited for a period of time from purchasing or selling the securities of such companies, and this prohibition may have an adverse effect on us. Our incentive fee structure may create incentives for OFS Advisor that are not fully aligned with the interests of our shareholders. In the course of our investing activities, we will pay management and incentive fees to OFS Advisor. The base management fee is based on our totalassets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity).We have elected to exclude from the base management fee calculation any base management fee that would be owed in respect of the intangible asset andgoodwill resulting from our acquisitions of the remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December 4, 2013. As a result, investors in ourcommon stock will invest on a “gross” basis and receive distributions on a “net” basis after expenses, resulting in a lower rate of return than one mightachieve through direct investments. Because these fees are based on our total assets, other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased withborrowed amounts and including any assets owned by any consolidated entity, OFS Advisor will benefit when we incur debt or use leverage. Our board ofdirectors is charged with protecting our interests by monitoring how OFS Advisor addresses these and other conflicts of interests associated with itsmanagement services and compensation. While our board of directors is not expected to review or approve each borrowing or incurrence of leverage, ourindependent directors will periodically review OFS Advisor’s services and fees as well as its portfolio management decisions and portfolio performance. Inconnection with these reviews, our independent directors will consider whether our fees and expenses (including those related to leverage) remainappropriate. As a result of this arrangement, OFS Advisor or its affiliates may from time to time have interests that differ from those of our shareholders, givingrise to a conflict. The part of the incentive fee payable to OFS Advisor that relates to our pre-incentive fee net investment income will be computed and paid on incomethat may include interest income that has been accrued but not yet received in cash. This fee structure may be considered to involve a conflict of interest forOFS Advisor to the extent that it may encourage OFS Advisor to favor debt financings that provide for deferred interest, rather than current cash payments ofinterest. OFS Advisor may have an incentive to invest in deferred interest securities in circumstances where it would not have done so but for the opportunityto continue to earn the incentive fee even when the issuers of the deferred interest securities would not be able to make actual cash payments to us on suchsecurities. This risk could be increased because OFS Advisor is not obligated to reimburse us for any incentive fees received even if we subsequently incurlosses or never receive in cash the deferred income that was previously accrued. 31 The valuation process for certain of our portfolio holdings creates a conflict of interest. Many of our portfolio investments are made in the form of securities that are not publicly traded. As a result, our board of directors will determine thefair value of these securities in good faith as described below in “Many of our portfolio investments are recorded at fair value as determined in good faith byour board of directors and, as a result, there may be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments.” In connection with that determination,investment professionals from OFS Advisor may provide our board of directors with portfolio company valuations based upon the most recent portfoliocompany financial statements available and projected financial results of each portfolio company. In addition, the members of our board of directors who arenot independent directors have a substantial indirect pecuniary interest in OFS Advisor. The participation of OFS Advisor’s investment professionals in ourvaluation process, and the indirect pecuniary interest in OFS Advisor by those members of our board of directors, could result in a conflict of interest sinceOFS Advisor’s management fee is based, in part, on our total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowedamounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity). We may have additional conflicts related to other arrangements with OFS Advisor or its affiliates. We have entered into a license agreement with OFSAM under which OFSAM has granted us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name“OFS.” See “Item 1. Business—Management and Other Agreements—License Agreement.” In addition, we will rent office space from a subsidiary of OFSAMand pay to that subsidiary our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement,such as rent and our allocable portion of the cost of our officers, including our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief compliance officer andchief accounting officer. This will create conflicts of interest that our board of directors must monitor. The Investment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor and the Administration Agreement with OFS Services were not negotiated on an arm’s length basisand may not be as favorable to us as if they had been negotiated with an unaffiliated third party. The Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement were negotiated between related parties. Consequently, their terms, includingfees payable to OFS Advisor, may not be as favorable to us as if they had been negotiated with an unaffiliated third party. In addition, we may choose not toenforce, or to enforce less vigorously, our rights and remedies under these agreements because of our desire to maintain our ongoing relationship with OFSAdvisor, OFS Services and their respective affiliates. Any such decision, however, would breach our fiduciary obligations to our shareholders. Our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates will be restricted, which may limit the scope of investments available to us. Because we have elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, we are prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactionswith our affiliates without the prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, of the SEC. Those transactions include purchases and sales, andso-called “joint” transactions, in which we and one or more of our affiliates are engaging together in certain types of profit-making activities. Any person thatowns, directly or indirectly, five percent or more of our outstanding voting securities will be our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act, and we are generallyprohibited from engaging in purchases or sales of assets or joint transactions with such affiliates, absent the prior approval of our independent directors.Additionally, without the approval of the SEC, we are prohibited from engaging in purchases or sales of assets or joint transactions with the followingaffiliated persons: (a) our officers, directors, and employees; (b) OFS Advisor and its affiliates; and (c) any person who owns more than 25% of our votingsecurities or certain of that person’s affiliates. We may, however, invest alongside OFSAM and its other affiliates or their respective other clients in certain circumstances where doing so is consistentwith applicable law and SEC staff interpretations. For example, we may invest alongside such accounts consistent with guidance promulgated by the SECstaff permitting us and such other accounts to purchase interests in a single class of privately placed securities so long as certain conditions are met, includingthat OFS Advisor, acting on our behalf and on behalf of other clients, negotiates no term other than price. We may also invest alongside OFSAM and its otheraffiliates or their respective other clients as otherwise permissible under regulatory guidance, applicable regulations and OFS Advisor’s allocation policy.Under this allocation policy, if two or more investment vehicles with similar or overlapping investment strategies are in their investment periods, an availableopportunity will be allocated based on the provisions governing allocations of such investment opportunities in the relevant organizational, offering orsimilar documents, if any, for such investment vehicles. In the absence of any such provisions, OFS Advisor will consider the following factors and the weightthat should be given with respect to each of these factors: •investment guidelines and/or restrictions, if any, set forth in the applicable organizational, offering or similar documents for the investmentvehicles; •risk and return profile of the investment vehicles; •suitability/priority of a particular investment for the investment vehicles; •if applicable, the targeted position size of the investment for the investment vehicles; •level of available cash for investment with respect to the investment vehicles; 32 •total amount of funds committed to the investment vehicles; and •the age of the investment vehicles and the remaining term of their respective investment periods, if any. In situations where co-investment with such other accounts is not permitted or appropriate, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in differentsecurities of the same issuer or where the different investments could be expected to result in a conflict between our interests and those of other accounts, OFSAdvisor will need to decide which account will proceed with the investment. The decision by OFS Advisor to allocate an opportunity to another entity couldcause us to forego an investment opportunity that we otherwise would have made. Moreover, except in certain circumstances, we will be unable to invest inany issuer in which OFSAM and its other affiliates or a fund managed by OFSAM or its other affiliates has previously invested. Similar restrictions limit ourability to transact business with our officers or directors or their affiliates. These restrictions may limit the scope of investment opportunities that wouldotherwise be available to us. We may also be prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval ofmembers of our board of directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, prior approval by the SEC. The SEC has interpreted the BDC regulationsgoverning transactions with affiliates to prohibit certain “joint transactions” between entities that share a common investment adviser. In connection with ourelection to be regulated as a BDC, we will not be permitted to co-invest with other funds managed by OFSAM or one of its affiliates in certain types ofnegotiated investment transactions unless we receive exemptive relief from the SEC permitting us to do so. Although we may apply to the SEC for exemptiverelief to permit such co-investment and liquidity transactions, subject to certain conditions, we cannot be certain that any application for such relief will begranted or what conditions will be placed on such relief. SBA regulations limit the outstanding dollar amount of SBA guaranteed debenture funding that may be received by an SBIC or group of SBICs undercommon control. SBA regulations currently limit the amount that an SBIC may borrow to up to a maximum of $150 million when it has at least $75 million in regulatorycapital, receives a leverage commitment from the SBA and has been through an examination by the SBA subsequent to licensing. For two or more SBICsunder common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA-provided leverage cannot exceed $225 million. A proposed bill in the U.S. House ofRepresentatives, the Small Business Capital Access and Job Preservation Act, or House Bill 1105, would increase the total SBIC leverage capacity foraffiliated SBIC funds from $225 million to $350 million. However, the ultimate form and likely outcome of such legislation or any similar legislation cannotbe predicted. We cannot presently predict whether or not we will borrow the maximum permitted amount; if we reach the maximum dollar amount of SBA guaranteeddebentures permitted, and thereafter require additional capital, our cost of capital may increase, and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtainadditional financing on acceptable terms. Moreover, SBIC I LP’s status as an SBIC does not automatically assure that it will receive SBA guaranteed debenture funding. Receipt of SBA leveragefunding is dependent upon whether SBIC I LP is and continues to be in compliance with SBA regulations and policies and whether funding is available. Theamount of SBA leverage funding available to SBICs is dependent upon annual Congressional authorizations and in the future may be subject to annualCongressional appropriations. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient debenture funding available at the times desired by SBIC I LP. As ofDecember 31, 2013, SBIC I LP had a total of $26.0 million of SBA guaranteed debentures outstanding and has paid the SBA fees of approximately $1.3million. In order to access the full $150.0 million of SBA guaranteed debentures potentially available to us under the license held by SBIC I LP, we need tofund an additional $13.6 million into SBIC I LP. There can be no assurance as to when, or whether, we will be able to invest the additional $13.6 million intoSBIC I LP. SBIC I LP is subject to SBA regulations. Our investment strategy includes SBIC I LP, which is regulated by the SBA. On December 4, 2013, we acquired the remaining limited and generalpartnership interests of SBIC I LP that we did not already own, which resulted in SBIC I LP becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary. The SBIC license allows SBIC I LP to receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, subject to the issuance of leverage commitments by the SBA andother customary procedures. Prior to becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary, SBIC I LP had received $67.3 million in SBA leverage commitments. However,receipt of SBA-guaranteed debenture funding is subject to SBIC I LP’s compliance with SBA regulations and policies. We cannot assure shareholders thatSBIC I LP will satisfy the conditions to receive such funding or that it will otherwise be able to make additional draws on its existing commitment or receiveadditional commitments from the SBA. 33 Further, the SBA regulations require that a licensed SBIC be periodically examined and audited by the SBA to determine its compliance with therelevant SBA regulations. If SBIC I LP fails to comply with applicable SBA regulations, the SBA could, depending on the severity of the violation, limit orprohibit its use of debentures, declare outstanding debentures immediately due and payable, and/or limit its ability to make new investments. The SBA, as acreditor, will have a superior claim to SBIC I LP’s assets over SBIC I LP’s limited partners and our shareholders in the event SBIC I LP is liquidated or theSBA exercises its remedies under the SBA debentures issued by SBIC I LP in the event of a default. In addition, the SBA can revoke or suspend a license forwillful or repeated violation of, or willful or repeated failure to observe, any provision of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 or any rule or regulationpromulgated thereunder. These actions by the SBA would, in turn, negatively affect us because of our ownership interest in SBIC I LP. The SBA places certain limitations on the financing terms of investments by SBICs in portfolio companies and prohibits an SBIC from providing fundsto small businesses for certain purposes, such as relending, real estate or investing in companies outside of the United States, and providing funds tobusinesses engaged in a few prohibited industries and to certain “passive” (i.e., non-operating) companies. In addition, without prior SBA approval, an SBICmay not invest an amount equal to more than approximately 30% of the SBIC’s regulatory capital in any one company and its affiliates. Compliance withSBIC requirements may cause SBIC I LP to forego attractive investment opportunities that are not permitted under SBA regulations. SBIC I LP is subject to ongoing regulation and oversight by the SBA, including requirements with respect to maintaining certain minimum financialratios and other covenants. In addition, SBIC I LP may also be limited in its ability to make distributions to us if it does not have sufficient accumulated netprofit, in accordance with SBA regulations. These requirements may make it more difficult for us to achieve our investment objective. We finance our investments with borrowed money, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and may increase the risk ofinvesting in us. The use of leverage magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested. The use of leverage is generally considered a speculative investmenttechnique and increases the risks associated with investing in our securities. We may pledge up to 100% of our assets and may grant a security interest in allof our assets under the terms of any debt instruments we may enter into with lenders. In addition, under the terms of any credit facility or other debtinstrument we enter into, we are likely to be required by its terms to use the net proceeds of any investments that we sell to repay a portion of the amountborrowed under such facility or instrument before applying such net proceeds to any other uses. If the value of our assets decreases, leveraging would causenet asset value to decline more sharply than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged, thereby magnifying losses or eliminating our equity stake in aleveraged investment. Similarly, any decrease in our revenue or income will cause our net income to decline more sharply than it would have had we notborrowed. Such a decline would also negatively affect our ability to make dividend payments on our common stock or preferred stock. Our ability to serviceour debt will depend largely on our financial performance and will be subject to prevailing economic conditions and competitive pressures. Moreover,because the management fee payable to OFS Advisor is payable based on our total assets (other than cash, cash equivalents, and the intangible asset andgoodwill resulting from our acquisitions of the remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December 4, 2013, but including assetspurchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity), OFS Advisor will have a financial incentive to incur leveragewhich may not be consistent with our shareholders’ interests. In addition, our common shareholders will bear the burden of any increase in our expenses as aresult of our use of leverage, including interest expenses and any increase in the management fee payable to OFS Advisor. As a BDC, we are generally required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total borrowings and other senior securities, which include all of ourborrowings and any preferred stock that we may issue in the future, of at least 200%. If this ratio declines below 200%, we will not be able to incur additionaldebt and could be required to sell a portion of our investments to repay some debt when it is disadvantageous to do so. This could have a material adverseeffect on our operations, and we may not be able to make distributions. The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on OFS Advisor’s and our boardof directors’ assessment of market and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing. We cannot assure shareholders that we will be able to obtain creditat all or on terms acceptable to us. The following table illustrates the effect of leverage on returns from an investment in our common stock assuming various annual returns, net ofexpenses. The calculations in the table below are hypothetical and actual returns may be higher or lower than those appearing in the table below. 34 Assumed Return on Our Portfolio (Net of Expenses) -10% -5% 0% 5% 10% Corresponding return to common stockholder (1) -20% -12% -3% 5% 14% (1)Assumes $237.9 million in investments at fair value, $135.0 million in debt outstanding, $140.4 million in net assets and an average cost of funds of3.5%. Assumptions are based on our financial condition and our average cost of funds at December 31, 2013. Based on our outstanding indebtedness of $135.0 million as of December 31, 2013 and the average cost of funds of 3.5% as of that date, our investmentportfolio must experience an annual return of at least 2.0% to cover interest payments on the outstanding debt. To the extent we use debt to finance our investments, changes in interest rates will affect our cost of capital and net investment income. To the extent we borrow money to make investments, our net investment income will depend, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which weborrow funds and the rate at which we invest those funds. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not havea material adverse effect on our net investment income in the event we use debt to finance our investments. In periods of rising interest rates, our cost of fundswould increase, which could reduce our net investment income. We may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to limit our exposure tointerest rate fluctuations. Such techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. You should also be aware that a rise in the general level of interest rates typically leads to higher interest rates applicable to our debt investments.Accordingly, an increase in interest rates may result in an increase of the amount of incentive fees payable to OFS Advisor. We may enter into reverse repurchase agreements, which are another form of leverage. We may enter into reverse repurchase agreements as part of our management of our temporary investment portfolio. Under a reverse repurchaseagreement, we will effectively pledge our assets as collateral to secure a short-term loan. Generally, the other party to the agreement makes the loan in anamount equal to a percentage of the fair value of the pledged collateral. At the maturity of the reverse repurchase agreement, we will be required to repay theloan and correspondingly receive back our collateral. While used as collateral, the assets continue to pay principal and interest which are for the benefit of us. Our use of reverse repurchase agreements, if any, involves many of the same risks involved in our use of leverage, as the proceeds from reverserepurchase agreements generally will be invested in additional securities. There is a risk that the market value of the securities acquired in the reverserepurchase agreement may decline below the price of the securities that we have sold but remain obligated to purchase. In addition, there is a risk that themarket value of the securities retained by us may decline. If a buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement were to file for bankruptcy orexperience insolvency, we may be adversely affected. Also, in entering into reverse repurchase agreements, we would bear the risk of loss to the extent thatthe proceeds of such agreements at settlement are less than the fair value of the underlying securities being pledged. In addition, due to the interest costsassociated with reverse repurchase agreements transactions, our net asset value would decline, and, in some cases, we may be worse off than if we had notused such instruments. We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities, which could reduce returns and result in losses. A number of entities compete with us to make the types of investments that we plan to make. We will compete with public and private funds,commercial and investment banks, commercial financing companies and, to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity andhedge funds. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. Forexample, we believe some of our competitors may have access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may havehigher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more relationships thanus. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC or the source of income, assetdiversification and distribution requirements we must satisfy to maintain our RIC status. The competitive pressures we face may have a material adverse effecton our business, financial condition and results of operations. As a result of this competition, we may not be able to take advantage of attractive investmentopportunities from time to time, and we may not be able to identify and make investments that are consistent with our investment objective. 35 With respect to the investments we make, we will not seek to compete based primarily on the interest rates we will offer, and we believe that some of ourcompetitors may make loans with interest rates that will be lower than the rates we offer. In the secondary market for acquiring existing loans, we expect tocompete generally on the basis of pricing terms. With respect to all investments, we may lose some investment opportunities if we do not match ourcompetitors’ pricing, terms and structure. However, if we match our competitors’ pricing, terms and structure, we may experience decreased net interestincome, lower yields and increased risk of credit loss. We may also compete for investment opportunities with OFSAM and its other affiliates or accountsmanaged by OFSAM or one of its other affiliates. Although OFS Advisor will allocate opportunities in accordance with its policies and procedures,allocations to such other accounts will reduce the amount and frequency of opportunities available to us and may not be in the best interests of us and ourshareholders. Moreover, the performance of investments will not be known at the time of allocation. We may suffer credit losses. Investment in middle market companies is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk of credit loss, and therefore our securities may not besuitable for someone with a low tolerance for risk. These risks are likely to increase during an economic recession. We will be subject to corporate-level federal income tax if we are unable to qualify or maintain our qualification as a RIC. We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, but no assurance can be given that we will be able to maintain RIC status afterthe election to be treated as RIC. When we qualify as a RIC under the Code, we will not be required to pay corporate-level federal income taxes on ourincome and capital gains distributed (or deemed distributed) to our shareholders. To continue to qualify as a RIC under the Code and to be relieved of federaltaxes on income and gains distributed to our shareholders, we must maintain certain source-of-income, asset diversification and distribution requirements.The distribution requirement for a RIC is satisfied if we distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of netlong-term capital losses, if any, to our shareholders on an annual basis. We will be subject, to the extent we use debt financing, to certain asset coverage ratiorequirements under the 1940 Act and financial covenants under loan and credit agreements that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from makingdistributions necessary to continue to qualify as a RIC. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to maintain our qualification for the taxbenefits available to RICs and, thus, may be subject to corporate-level federal income tax. To maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must also meet certainasset diversification requirements at the end of each calendar quarter. Failure to meet these tests may result in our having to dispose of certain investmentsquickly in order to prevent the loss of RIC status. Because most of our investments will be in private or thinly traded public companies, any such dispositionscould be made at disadvantageous prices and may result in substantial losses. If we fail to continue to as a RIC for any reason and become subject tocorporate-level federal income tax, the resulting corporate taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of income available for distributions toshareholders and the amount of our distributions and the amount of funds available for new investments. Such a failure would have a material adverse effecton us and our shareholders. See “Item 1. Business—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation as a RIC.” Our subsidiaries and portfolio companies may be unable to make distributions to us that will enable us to meet RIC requirements, which could result in theimposition of an entity-level tax. In order for us to continue to maintain our status as a RIC and to minimize corporate-level taxes, we are required to distribute on an annual basissubstantially all of our taxable income, which includes income from our subsidiaries and portfolio companies. As a substantial portion of our investments aremade through OFS Capital WM or SBIC I LP, we are substantially dependent on those entities for cash distributions to enable us to maintain the RICdistribution requirements. SBIC I LP may be limited by the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 and SBA regulations governing SBICs from makingcertain distributions to us that may be necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a RIC. We may have to request a waiver of the SBA’s restrictions forSBIC I LP to make certain distributions to maintain our status as a RIC and we cannot assure shareholders that the SBA will grant such waiver. Additionally,OFS Capital WM is managed by an unaffiliated loan manager pursuant to the OFS Capital WM Facility documentation, which prescribes the order in whichpayments are to be applied and contains other contractual restrictions. Accordingly, we cannot assure shareholders that OFS Capital WM will makedistributions to us. If our subsidiaries and portfolio companies are unable to make distributions to us, this may result in loss of RIC status and a consequentimposition of a corporate-level federal income tax on us. We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before, or without, receiving cash representing such income. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we will include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as the accretion of OID.This may arise if we purchase assets at a discount, receive warrants in connection with the making of a loan or in other circumstances, or through contractedpayment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest (meaning interest paid in the form of additional principal amount of the loan instead of in cash), which representscontractual interest added to the loan balance and due at the end of the loan term. Such OID, which could be significant relative to our overall investmentactivities, or increases in loan balances as a result of contracted PIK arrangements, will be included in income before we receive any corresponding cashpayments. We also may be required to include in income certain other amounts that we will not receive in cash. 36 Since in certain cases we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting therequirement to distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to maintainthe tax benefits available to RICs. In such a case, we may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous,raise additional debt or equity capital or reduce new investment originations and sourcings to meet these distribution requirements. If we sell built-in-gainassets, we may be required to recognize taxable income in respect of the built-in-gain on such assets. In such a case, we would have to distribute all of ourtaxable gain (including the built-in-gain) in respect of such sale to avoid the imposition of entity-level tax on such gain. If we are not able to obtain suchcash from other sources, we may fail to maintain the tax benefits available to RICs and thus be subject to corporate-level income tax. See “Item 1. Business—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation as a RIC.” We may in the future choose to pay dividends in our own stock, in which case shareholders may be required to pay tax in excess of the cash they receive. We distribute taxable dividends that are payable in cash or shares of our common stock at the election of each shareholder. Under certain applicableprovisions of the Code and the Treasury regulations, distributions payable in cash or in shares of stock at the election of shareholders are treated as taxabledividends. The Internal Revenue Service has issued private rulings indicating that this rule will apply even where the total amount of cash that may bedistributed is limited to no more than 20% of the total distribution. Under these rulings, if too many shareholders elect to receive their distributions in cash,each such shareholder would receive a pro rata share of the total cash to be distributed and would receive the remainder of their distribution in shares of stock.If we decide to make any distributions consistent with these rulings that are payable in part in our stock, taxable shareholders receiving such dividends willbe required to include the full amount of the dividend (whether received in cash, our stock, or a combination thereof) as ordinary income (or as long-termcapital gain to the extent such distribution is properly reported as a capital gain dividend) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profitsfor United States federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. shareholder may be required to pay tax with respect to such dividends in excess of any cashreceived. If a U.S. shareholder sells the stock it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included inincome with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of our stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. shareholders, wemay be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such dividends, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in stock. Inaddition, if a significant number of our shareholders determine to sell shares of our stock in order to pay taxes owed on dividends, it may put downwardpressure on the trading price of our stock. Because we expect to distribute substantially all of our net investment income and net realized capital gains to our shareholders, we may need additionalcapital to finance our growth and such capital may not be available on favorable terms or at all. We have elected to be taxed for federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As such, if we meet certain requirements,including source of income, asset diversification and distribution requirements, and if we continue to qualify as a BDC, we will continue to qualify to be aRIC under the Code and will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on income we distribute to our shareholders as dividends, allowing us to substantiallyreduce or eliminate our corporate-level tax liability. As a BDC, we are generally required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total senior securities,which includes all of our borrowings and any preferred stock we may issue in the future, of at least 200% at the time we issue any debt or preferred stock. Thisrequirement limits the amount that we may borrow. Because we will continue to need capital to grow our investment portfolio, this limitation may prevent usfrom incurring debt or preferred stock and require us to raise additional equity at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. We cannot assureshareholders that debt and equity financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all, and debt financings may be restricted by the terms of any ofour outstanding borrowings. In addition, as a BDC, we are generally not permitted to issue common stock priced below net asset value without shareholderapproval. If additional funds are not available to us, we could be forced to curtail or cease new lending and investment activities, and our net asset valuecould decline. Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to and the way in which we raise additional capital. As a BDC, we will need to raiseadditional capital, which will expose us to risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage. We may issue debt securities or preferred stock and/or borrow money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer to collectively as “seniorsecurities,” up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted as a BDC to issue senior securitiesin amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% of gross assets less all liabilities and indebtedness notrepresented by senior securities, after each issuance of senior securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy this test. If thathappens, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments and, depending on the nature of our leverage, repay a portion of our indebtedness at a timewhen such sales may be disadvantageous. Also, any amounts that we use to service our indebtedness would not be available for distributions to our commonshareholders. If we issue senior securities, we will be exposed to typical risks associated with leverage, including an increased risk of loss. 37 As of December 31, 2013, we had debt outstanding in the amount of $135.0 million. Our ability to incur additional debt and remain in compliance withthe asset coverage test will be limited. We may seek a credit facility to finance investments and potentially for working capital requirements. There can be noassurance that we will be able to obtain such financing on favorable terms or at all, or that SBIC I LP will be able to borrow additional funds. We havereceived an exemptive order from the SEC to permit us to exclude the debt of SBIC I LP guaranteed by the SBA from our definition of senior securities in ourstatutory 200% asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act. If we issue preferred stock, the preferred stock would rank “senior” to common stock in our capital structure, preferred shareholders would have separatevoting rights on certain matters and might have other rights, preferences or privileges more favorable than those of our common shareholders, and theissuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium pricefor holders of our common stock or otherwise be in our shareholders’ best interest. Holders of our common stock will directly or indirectly bear all of the costsassociated with offering and servicing any preferred stock that we issue. In addition, any interests of preferred shareholders may not necessarily align with theinterests of holders of our common stock and the rights of holders of shares of preferred stock to receive dividends would be senior to those of holders ofshares of our common stock. We are not generally able to issue and sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share. We may, however, sellour common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the then-current net asset value per share of our common stockif our board of directors determines that such sale is in the best interests of us and our shareholders, and if our shareholders approve any such sale. In any suchcase, the price at which our securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price that, in the determination of our board of directors, closelyapproximates the market value of such securities (less any distributing commission or discount). If we raise additional funds by issuing common stock orsenior securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common stock, then the percentage ownership of our shareholders at that time will decrease, andour shareholders might experience dilution. Our ability to invest in public companies may be limited in certain circumstances. To maintain our status as a BDC, we are not permitted to acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the timethe acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Subject to certain exceptions for follow-oninvestments and distressed companies, an investment in an issuer that has outstanding securities listed on a national securities exchange may be treated as aqualifying asset only if such issuer has a common equity market capitalization that is less than $250 million at the time of such investment and meets theother specified requirements. Various events could negatively impact the value of our investment in OFS Capital WM (and, as a result, a shareholder’s investment in us), including anevent of default under the OFS Capital WM Facility documentation and the substantive consolidation of OFS Capital WM with us. The OFS Capital WM Facility documentation contains several events of default, including breaches of representations and warranties by us, OFSCapital WM or Madison Capital (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of New York Life Investments) and breaches of covenants that prohibit certain actionsby us, OFS Capital WM, Madison Capital or the affiliate of Madison Capital that acts as loan manager for OFS Capital WM. If an event of default were tooccur, the trustee, at the request of the controlling lender, may accelerate the outstanding indebtedness under the OFS Capital WM Facility and may enforceits rights in the collateral securing the facility. As we have pledged our equity interest in OFS Capital WM as security for the obligations under the OFSCapital WM Facility, we may lose all or a portion of our investment in OFS Capital WM if an event of default occurs. Breaches of the OFS Capital WMFacility documentation that fall short of an event of default could also negatively impact the value of our equity interest in OFS Capital WM and the value ofour shareholders’ investment in OFS Capital. Adverse developments in the credit markets may impair our ability to secure debt financing. During the economic downturn in the United States that began in mid-2007, many commercial banks and other financial institutions stopped lendingor significantly curtailed their lending activity. In addition, in an effort to stem losses and reduce their exposure to segments of the economy deemed to behigh risk, some financial institutions limited routine refinancing and loan modification transactions and even reviewed the terms of existing facilities toidentify bases for accelerating the maturity of existing lending facilities. As a result, it may be difficult for us to obtain desired financing to finance thegrowth of our investments on acceptable economic terms, or at all. If we are unable to consummate credit facilities on commercially reasonable terms, our liquidity may be reduced significantly. If we are unable to repayamounts outstanding under any facility we may enter into and are declared in default or are unable to renew or refinance any such facility, it would limit ourability to initiate significant originations or to operate our business in the normal course. These situations may arise due to circumstances that we may beunable to control, such as inaccessibility of the credit markets, a severe decline in the value of the U.S. dollar, a further economic downturn or an operationalproblem that affects third parties or us, and could materially damage our business. Moreover, we are unable to predict when economic and market conditionsmay become more favorable. Even if such conditions improve broadly and significantly over the long term, adverse conditions in particular sectors of thefinancial markets could adversely impact our business. 38 We are highly dependent on information systems and systems failures could significantly disrupt our business, which may, in turn, negatively affect themarket price of our common stock and our ability to pay dividends. Our business is highly dependent on the communications and information systems of OFS Advisor and its affiliates as well as third parties. Any failureor interruption of those systems, including as a result of the termination of an agreement with any third-party service providers, could cause delays or otherproblems in our activities. Our financial, accounting, data processing, backup or other operating systems and facilities may fail to operate properly or becomedisabled or damaged as a result of a number of factors including events that are wholly or partially beyond our control and adversely affect our business.There could be: •sudden electrical or telecommunications outages;•natural disasters such as earthquakes, tornadoes and hurricanes;•disease pandemics;•events arising from local or larger scale political or social matters, including terrorist acts; and•cyber attacks. These events, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and negatively affect the market price of our common stock and our abilityto pay dividends to our stockholders. If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could fail to continue to qualify as a BDC or be precluded from investingaccording to our current business strategy. As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such acquisition, at least 70% ofour total assets are qualifying assets. See “Item 1. Business—Regulation.” We believe that most of the investments that we may acquire in the future will constitute qualifying assets. However, we may be precluded frominvesting in what we believe are attractive investments if such investments are not qualifying assets for purposes of the 1940 Act. If a sufficient portion of ourassets are not qualifying assets, we could violate the 1940 Act provisions applicable to business development companies. As a result of such violation,specific rules under the 1940 Act could prevent us, for example, from making follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies (which could result inthe dilution of our position) or could require us to dispose of investments at inappropriate times in order to come into compliance with the 1940 Act. If weneed to dispose of such investments quickly, it could be difficult to dispose of such investments on favorable terms. We may not be able to find a buyer forsuch investments and, even if we do find a buyer, we may have to sell the investments at a substantial loss. Any such outcomes would have a material adverseeffect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we do not maintain our status as a BDC, we would be subject to regulation as a registered closed-end investment company under the 1940 Act. As aregistered closed-end fund, we would be subject to substantially more regulatory restrictions under the 1940 Act which would significantly decrease ouroperating flexibility. Many of our portfolio investments are recorded at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors and, as a result, there may beuncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments. Many of our portfolio investments, including those of our subsidiaries, take the form of securities that are not publicly traded. The fair value ofsecurities and other investments that are not publicly traded may not be readily determinable. We value these securities at fair value as determined in goodfaith by our board of directors, including to reflect significant events affecting the value of our securities. Most of our investments (other than cash and cashequivalents) are classified as Level 3 under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820). Thismeans that our portfolio valuations are based on unobservable inputs and our own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset orliability in question. Inputs into the determination of fair value of our portfolio investments require significant management judgment or estimation. Even ifobservable market data are available, such information is the result of consensus pricing information or broker quotes, which include a disclaimer that thebroker would not be held to such a price in an actual transaction. The non-binding nature of consensus pricing and/or quotes accompanied by disclaimersmaterially reduces the reliability of such information. We presently retain the services of two independent service providers to review the valuation of thesesecurities. The types of factors that the board of directors takes into account in determining the fair value of our investments generally include, as appropriate,comparison to publicly traded securities including such factors as yield, maturity and measures of credit quality, the enterprise value of a portfolio company,the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, the markets inwhich the portfolio company does business and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and privatecompanies, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates, our determinations of fair value may differmaterially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these securities existed. Our net asset value could be adversely affected if ourdeterminations regarding the fair value of our investments were materially higher than the values that we ultimately realize upon the disposal of suchsecurities. 39 We adjust quarterly the valuation of our portfolio to reflect our board of directors’ determination of the fair value of each investment in our portfolio.Any changes in fair value are recorded in our statement of income as net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results. We could experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a number of factors, including the interest rate payable on the debt securitieswe acquire, the default rate on such securities, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains orlosses, distributions from our subsidiaries and portfolio companies, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets and general economicconditions. In light of these factors, results for any period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods. Changes in the laws or regulations governing our business, or changes in the interpretations thereof, and any failure by us to comply with these laws orregulations, could have a material adverse effect on our, and our portfolio companies’, business, results of operations or financial condition. We and our portfolio companies are subject to regulation by laws at the U.S. federal, state and local levels, including those that govern BDCs, RICs ornon-depository commercial lenders. These laws and regulations, including applicable accounting standards, as well as their interpretation, may change fromtime to time, and new laws, regulations, accounting standards and interpretations may also come into effect. Any such new or changed laws or regulationscould have a material adverse effect on our business. We are also subject to judicial and administrative decisions that affect our operations, including our loan originations, maximum interest rates, fees andother charges, disclosures to portfolio companies, the terms of secured transactions, collection and foreclosure procedures and other trade practices. If theselaws, regulations or decisions change, or if we expand our business into jurisdictions that have adopted more stringent requirements than those in which wecurrently conduct business, we may have to incur significant expenses in order to comply, or we might have to restrict our operations. If we do not complywith applicable laws, regulations and decisions, we may lose licenses needed for the conduct of our business and may be subject to civil fines and criminalpenalties. In addition, changes to the laws and regulations governing our operations related to permitted investments may cause us to alter our investmentstrategy, including making investments in entities such as OFS Capital WM and SBIC I LP, in order to avail ourselves of new or different opportunities. Suchchanges could result in material differences to the strategies and plans set forth in this annual report on Form 10-K and our accounting practices described inthis annual report on Form 10-K, and may shift our investment focus from the areas of expertise of OFS Advisor to other types of investments in which OFSAdvisor may have little or no expertise or experience. Any such changes, if they occur, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations andthe value of your investment. On July 21, 2010, the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or Dodd-Frank Act, was signed into law. Although passage of the Dodd-FrankAct has resulted in extensive rulemaking and regulatory changes that affect us and the financial industry as a whole, many of its provisions remain subject toextended implementation periods and delayed effective dates and will require extensive rulemaking by regulatory authorities. While the full impact of theDodd-Frank Act on us and our portfolio companies may not be known for an extended period of time, the Dodd-Frank Act, including future rulesimplementing its provisions and the interpretation of those rules, along with other legislative and regulatory proposals directed at the financial servicesindustry or affecting taxation that are proposed or pending in the U.S. Congress, may negatively impact the operations, cash flows or financial condition of usor our portfolio companies, impose additional costs on us or our portfolio companies, intensify the regulatory supervision of us or our portfolio companies orotherwise adversely affect our business or the business of our portfolio companies.. Over the last several years, there has been an increase in regulatory attention to the extension of credit outside of the traditional banking sector, raisingthe possibility that some portion of the non-bank financial sector will be subject to new regulation. While it cannot be known at this time whether theseregulations will be implemented or what form they will take, increased regulation of non-bank credit extension could negatively impact our operations, cashflows or financial condition, impose additional costs on us, intensify the regulatory supervision of us or otherwise adversely affect our business. 40 Pending legislation may allow us to incur additional leverage. Recently, legislation was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives intended to revise certain regulations applicable to BDCs. The legislationprovides for (i) increasing the amount of funds BDCs may borrow by reducing asset to debt limitations from 2:1 to 3:2, (ii) permitting BDCs to fileregistration statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that incorporate information from already-filed reports by reference, (iii) utilizingother streamlined registration processes afforded to operating companies, and (iv) allowing BDCs to own investment adviser subsidiaries. There are noassurances as to when the legislation will be enacted by Congress, if at all, or, if enacted, what final form the legislation would take. Loss of status as a RIC would reduce our net asset value and distributable income. We have qualified as a RIC under the Code. As a RIC, we do not have to pay federal income taxes on our income (including realized gains) that wedistribute to our shareholders, provided that we satisfy certain distribution and other requirements. Accordingly, we are not permitted under accounting rulesto establish reserves for taxes on our unrealized capital gains. If we fail to qualify for RIC status in any year, to the extent that we had unrealized gains, wewould have to establish reserves for taxes, which would reduce our net asset value and the amount potentially available for distribution. In addition, if we, asa RIC, were to decide to make a deemed distribution of net realized capital gains and retain the net realized capital gains, we would have to establishappropriate reserves for taxes that we would have to pay on behalf of shareholders. It is possible that establishing reserves for taxes could have a materialadverse effect on the value of our common stock. See “Item 1. Business— Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation as a RIC.” Our board of directors may change our investment objective, operating policies and strategies without prior notice or stockholder approval. Our board of directors has the authority, except as otherwise provided in the 1940 Act, to modify or waive certain of our operating policies andstrategies without prior notice and without shareholder approval. However, absent shareholder approval, we may not change the nature of our business so asto cease to be, or withdraw our election as, a BDC. Under Delaware law, we also cannot be dissolved without prior stockholder approval except by judicialaction. We cannot predict the effect any changes to our current operating policies and strategies would have on our business, operating results and the pricevalue of our common stock. Nevertheless, any such changes could adversely affect our business and impair our ability to make distributions. OFS Advisor can resign on 60 days’ notice, and we may not be able to find a suitable replacement within that time, resulting in a disruption in ouroperations that could adversely affect our financial condition, business and results of operations. OFS Advisor has the right, under the Investment Advisory Agreement, to resign at any time upon not less than 60 days’ written notice, whether we havefound a replacement or not. If OFS Advisor resigns, we may not be able to find a new investment adviser or hire internal management with similar expertiseand ability to provide the same or equivalent services on acceptable terms within 60 days, or at all. If we are unable to do so quickly, our operations are likelyto experience a disruption, our financial condition, business and results of operations as well as our ability to pay distributions are likely to be adverselyaffected and the market price of our shares may decline. In addition, the coordination of our internal management and investment activities is likely to sufferif we are unable to identify and reach an agreement with a single institution or group of executives having the expertise possessed by OFS Advisor and itsaffiliates. Even if we are able to retain comparable management, whether internal or external, the integration of such management and their lack of familiaritywith our investment objective may result in additional costs and time delays that may adversely affect our financial condition, business and results ofoperations. 41 OFS Services can resign from its role as our Administrator under the Administration Agreement, and we may not be able to find a suitable replacement,resulting in a disruption in our operations that could adversely affect our financial condition, business and results of operations. OFS Services has the right to resign under the Administration Agreement, whether we have found a replacement or not. If OFS Services resigns, we maynot be able to find a new administrator or hire internal management with similar expertise and ability to provide the same or equivalent services onacceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to do so quickly, our operations are likely to experience a disruption, our financial condition, business and resultsof operations as well as our ability to pay distributions are likely to be adversely affected and the market price of our shares may decline. In addition, thecoordination of our internal management and administrative activities is likely to suffer if we are unable to identify and reach an agreement with a serviceprovider or individuals with the expertise possessed by OFS Services. Even if we are able to retain a comparable service provider or individuals to performsuch services, whether internal or external, their integration into our business and lack of familiarity with our investment objective may result in additionalcosts and time delays that may adversely affect our financial condition, business and results of operations. We incur significant costs as a result of being a public company. As a publicly traded company, we incur legal, accounting and other expenses, including costs associated with the periodic reporting requirementsapplicable to a company whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, as well as additional corporate governance requirements, includingrequirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other rules implemented by the SEC. Efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act involve significant expenditures, and non-compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may adversely affect us and the market price of our common stock. Under current SEC rules, beginning with our fiscal year ending December 31, 2013, we are required to report on our internal control over financialreporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules and regulations of the SEC. We are required to review our internal control overfinancial reporting on an annual basis, and to evaluate and disclose changes in our internal control over financial reporting on a quarterly and annual basis. As a result, we expect to incur additional expenses that may negatively impact our financial performance and our ability to make distributions. Thisprocess also results in a diversion of management’s time and attention. We cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing andremediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations, and we may not be able to ensure that the process is effective or that our internal control overfinancial reporting is or will be effective in a timely manner. In the event that we are unable to maintain or achieve compliance with Section 404 of theSarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules, we and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected. We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and our business and stock price may be adversely affected if wehave not adequately addressed the weakness. As a result of our evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2013, management identified a materialweakness related to the appropriate accounting treatment for the Tamarix Acquisitions. Specifically, the Company initially considered treating the TamarixAcquisitions as a business combination governed by ASC 805, albeit reflecting as a day one loss, rather than recording as goodwill or other intangibles, theexcess purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets. The Company initially believed that approach, which would constitute a departurefrom GAAP, might be appropriate, because the traditional business combination treatment (including recognition of goodwill) under ASC Topic 805 did notappear to appropriately reflect a business combination between two investment companies, especially in the Company’s situation, where the acquirer (OFSCapital) had already been fair valuing the assets of the acquiree (Tamarix LP) for a number of quarters. The Company ultimately decided that any departurefrom ASC 805 was not warranted. As described in “Item 9A. Controls and Procedures- Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting,”future business combination transactions will be prepared in accordance with ASC 805. We believe that the audited consolidated financial statementsincluded in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are accurate. If we cannot produce reliable financial reports, investors could lose confidence in our reportedfinancial information, the market price of our stock could decline significantly, we may be unable to obtain additional financing to operate and expand ourbusiness, and our business and financial condition could be harmed. Risks Related to Our InvestmentsEconomic recessions or downturns could impair our portfolio companies and harm our operating results. Many of our portfolio companies are susceptible to economic slowdowns or recessions and may be unable to repay our loans during these periods.Therefore, our non-performing assets are likely to increase and the value of our portfolio is likely to decrease during these periods. Adverse economicconditions may decrease the value of collateral securing some of our loans and the value of our equity investments. Economic slowdowns or recessions couldlead to financial losses in our portfolio and a decrease in revenues, net income and assets. Unfavorable economic conditions also could increase our fundingcosts, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us. These events could prevent us from increasing ourinvestments and harm our operating results. 42 A portfolio company’s failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders could lead to defaults and, potentially,termination of its loans and foreclosure on its assets, which could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize our portfolio company’sability to meet its obligations under the debt securities that we hold. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or tonegotiate new terms with a defaulting portfolio company. In addition, lenders in certain cases can be subject to lender liability claims for actions taken bythem when they become too involved in the borrower’s business or exercise control over a borrower. It is possible that we could become subject to a lenderliability claim, including as a result of actions taken if we render significant managerial assistance to the borrower. Further, if one of our portfolio companieswere to file for bankruptcy protection, even though we may have structured our investment as senior secured debt, depending on the facts and circumstances,including the extent to which we provided managerial assistance to that portfolio company, a bankruptcy court might re-characterize our debt holding andsubordinate all or a portion of our claim to claims of other creditors. Market conditions have materially and adversely affected debt and equity capital markets in the United States and around the world. Beginning in 2007 and continuing into 2014, global financial markets and the global economy, including U.S. financial markets and the U.S.economy, have experienced periods of extreme volatility and disruption resulting in uncertainty in the financial and credit markets in general. Thisuncertainty in the financial and credit markets has reduced the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole and to financial firms inparticular. To the extent that we wish to use debt to fund our investments, the debt capital that will be available to us, if at all, may be at a higher cost, and onterms and conditions that may be less favorable, than what we expect, which could negatively affect our financial performance and results. A prolongedperiod of market illiquidity could cause us to reduce the volume of loans we originate and/or fund below historical levels and adversely affect the value ofour portfolio investments, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Deterioration ofmarket conditions could materially and adversely affect our business. Our investments in leveraged portfolio companies may be risky, and shareholders could lose all or part of their investment. Investment in leveraged companies involves a number of significant risks. Leveraged companies in which we invest may have limited financialresources and may be unable to meet their obligations under their debt securities that we hold. Such developments may be accompanied by a deterioration inthe value of any collateral and a reduction in the likelihood of our realizing any guarantees that we may have obtained in connection with our investment. Inaddition, our mezzanine loans are generally subordinated to senior loans and are generally unsecured. As such, other creditors may rank senior to us in theevent of an insolvency. Smaller leveraged companies also may have less predictable operating results and may require substantial additional capital tosupport their operations, finance their expansion or maintain their competitive position. Investing in our securities may involve an above-average degree of risk. Historically, the bulk of our investment portfolio consisted of senior secured loans to middle-market companies in the United States. We haveexpanded into additional asset classes, including investments in subordinated loans and, to a lesser extent, warrants and other minority equity securities,which may result in a higher amount of risk than alternative investments, volatility or loss of principal. Our investments in portfolio companies may behighly speculative and aggressive, and therefore, an investment in our securities may not be suitable for someone with lower risk tolerance. Our investments in private and middle-market portfolio companies are risky, and we could lose all or part of our investment. Investment in private and middle-market companies involves a number of significant risks. Generally, little public information exists about thesecompanies, and we rely on the ability of OFS Advisor’s investment professionals to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential returns frominvesting in these companies. If we are unable to uncover all material information about these companies, we may not make a fully informed investmentdecision, and we may lose money on our investments. Middle-market companies may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet theirobligations under their debt securities that we hold, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of any collateral and a reduction in thelikelihood of our realizing any guarantees we may have obtained in connection with our investment. In addition, such companies typically have shorteroperating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors’actions and market conditions, as well as general economic downturns. Additionally, middle-market companies are more likely to depend on themanagement talents and efforts of a small group of persons. Therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these persons couldhave a material adverse impact on our portfolio company and, in turn, on us. Middle-market companies also may be parties to litigation and may be engagedin rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence. In addition, our executive officers, directors and OFS Advisor may,in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from our investments in the portfolio companies. 43 If the assets securing the loans that we make decrease in value, then we may lack sufficient collateral to cover losses. We will at times take a security interest in the available assets of our portfolio companies, including the equity interests of their subsidiaries and, insome cases, the equity interests of our portfolio companies held by their shareholders. There is a risk that the collateral securing these types of loans maydecrease in value over time, may be difficult to sell in a timely manner, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based upon the success of thebusiness and market conditions, including as a result of the inability of a portfolio company to raise additional capital. In some circumstances, our lien couldbe subordinated to claims of other creditors. Additionally, deterioration in a portfolio company’s financial condition and prospects, including its inability toraise additional capital, may be accompanied by deterioration in the value of the collateral for these types of loans. Moreover, in the case of certain of ourinvestments, we do not have a first lien position on the collateral. Consequently, the fact that a loan may be secured does not guarantee that we will receiveprincipal and interest payments according to the loan’s terms, or that we will be able to collect on the loan should we be forced to enforce our remedies. We may suffer a loss if a portfolio company defaults on a loan and the underlying collateral is not sufficient. In the event of a default by a portfolio company on a secured loan, we will only have recourse to the assets collateralizing the loan. If the underlyingcollateral value is less than the loan amount, we will suffer a loss. In the event of bankruptcy of a portfolio company, we may not have full recourse to its assets in order to satisfy our loan, or our loan may be subject toequitable subordination. In addition, certain of our loans are subordinate to other debt of the portfolio company. If a portfolio company defaults on our loanor on debt senior to our loan, or in the event of a portfolio company bankruptcy, our loan may be satisfied only after the debt senior to our loan receivespayment. Where debt senior to our loan exists, the presence of intercreditor arrangements may limit our ability to amend our loan documents, assign ourloans, accept prepayments, exercise our remedies (for the duration of “standstill” periods), and control decisions made in bankruptcy proceedings relating tothe portfolio company. Bankruptcy and portfolio company litigation can significantly increase collection losses and the time needed for us to acquire theunderlying collateral in the event of a default, during which time the collateral may decline in value, causing us to suffer losses. If the value of collateral underlying our loan declines or interest rates increase during the term of our loan, a portfolio company may not be able toobtain the funds necessary to repay our loan at maturity through refinancing. Decreasing collateral value and/or increasing interest rates may hinder aportfolio company’s ability to refinance our loan because the underlying collateral cannot satisfy the debt service coverage requirements necessary to obtainnew financing. If a borrower is unable to repay our loan at maturity, we could suffer a loss which may adversely impact our financial performance. The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business. All of our assets are presently invested in illiquid securities, and a substantial portion of our investments in leveraged companies is subject to legal andother restrictions on resale or is otherwise less liquid than more broadly traded public securities. The illiquidity of these investments may make it difficult forus to sell such investments if the need arises. In addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantlyless than the value at which we have previously recorded our investments. We may also face other restrictions on our ability to liquidate an investment in aportfolio company to the extent that we, OFS Advisor, OFSAM or any of its other affiliates have material nonpublic information regarding such portfoliocompany. Price declines and illiquidity in the corporate debt markets may adversely affect the fair value of our portfolio investments, reducing our net asset valuethrough increased net unrealized depreciation. As a BDC, we are required to carry our investments at market value or, if no market value is ascertainable, at fair value as determined in good faith by ourboard of directors. As part of the valuation process, we may take into account the following types of factors, if relevant, in determining the fair value of ourinvestments: •a comparison of the portfolio company’s securities to publicly traded securities; •the enterprise value of a portfolio company; •the nature and realizable value of any collateral; •the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and cash flows; •the markets in which the portfolio company does business; and •changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that may affect the price at which similar investments may be made inthe future and other relevant factors. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, we use the pricing indicated by the externalevent to corroborate our valuation. We record decreases in the market values or fair values of our investments as unrealized depreciation. Declines in pricesand liquidity in the corporate debt markets may result in significant net unrealized depreciation in our portfolio. The effect of all of these factors on ourportfolio may reduce our net asset value by increasing net unrealized depreciation in our portfolio. Depending on market conditions, we could incursubstantial realized losses and may suffer additional unrealized losses in future periods, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financialcondition and results of operations. 44 We are a non-diversified management investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and therefore we are not limited with respect to theproportion of our assets that may be invested in securities of a single issuer. We are classified as a non-diversified management investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act, which means that we are not be limited bythe 1940 Act with respect to the proportion of our assets that we may invest in securities of a single issuer. To the extent that we assume large positions in thesecurities of a small number of issuers, our net asset value may fluctuate to a greater extent than that of a diversified investment company as a result ofchanges in the financial condition or the market’s assessment of the issuer. We may also be more susceptible to any single economic or regulatory occurrencethan a diversified investment company. Beyond our asset diversification requirements as a RIC under the Code, we do not have fixed guidelines fordiversification, and our investments could be concentrated in relatively few portfolio companies. Our portfolio may be concentrated in a limited number of portfolio companies and industries, which will subject us to a risk of significant loss if any ofthese companies defaults on its obligations under any of its debt instruments or if there is a downturn in a particular industry. Although we believe our portfolio is well-diversified across companies and industries, our portfolio is and may in the future be concentrated in alimited number of portfolio companies and industries. Beyond the asset diversification requirements associated with our qualification as a RIC under theCode, we do not have fixed guidelines for diversification. As a result, the aggregate returns we realize may be significantly adversely affected if a smallnumber of investments perform poorly or if we need to write down the value of any one investment. Additionally, while we are not targeting any specificindustries, our investments may be concentrated in relatively few industries. As a result, a downturn in any particular industry in which we are invested couldalso significantly impact the aggregate returns we realize. We may hold the debt securities of leveraged companies that may, due to the significant volatility of such companies, enter into bankruptcy proceedings. Although we generally do not expect to make investments in companies or securities that OFS Advisor determines to be distressed investments, we mayhold debt securities of leveraged companies that may, due to the significant volatility of such companies, enter into bankruptcy proceedings or experiencesimilar financial distress. The bankruptcy process has a number of significant inherent risks. Many events in a bankruptcy proceeding are the product ofcontested matters and adversary proceedings and are beyond the control of the creditors. A bankruptcy filing by an issuer may adversely and permanentlyaffect the issuer. If the proceeding is converted to a liquidation, the value of the issuer may not equal the liquidation value that was believed to exist at thetime of the investment. The duration of a bankruptcy proceeding is also difficult to predict, and a creditor’s return on investment can be adversely affected bydelays until the plan of reorganization or liquidation ultimately becomes effective. The administrative costs in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding arefrequently high and would be paid out of the debtor’s estate prior to any return to creditors. Because the standards for classification of claims underbankruptcy law are vague, our influence with respect to the class of securities or other obligations we own may be lost by increases in the number and amountof claims in the same class or by different classification and treatment. In the early stages of the bankruptcy process, it is often difficult to estimate the extentof, or even to identify, any contingent claims that might be made. In addition, certain claims that have priority by law (for example, claims for taxes) may besubstantial. Our failure to make follow-on investments in our portfolio companies could impair the value of our portfolio. Following an initial investment in a portfolio company, we may make additional investments in that portfolio company as “follow-on” investments, inseeking to: •increase or maintain in whole or in part our position as a creditor or equity ownership percentage in a portfolio company; •exercise warrants, options or convertible securities that were acquired in the original or subsequent financing; or •preserve or enhance the value of our investment. We have discretion to make follow-on investments, subject to the availability of capital resources. Failure on our part to make follow-on investmentsmay, in some circumstances, jeopardize the continued viability of a portfolio company and our initial investment, or may result in a missed opportunity forus to increase our participation in a successful operation. Even if we have sufficient capital to make a desired follow-on investment, we may elect not to makea follow-on investment because we may not want to increase our level of risk, because we prefer other opportunities or because we are inhibited bycompliance with BDC requirements or the desire to maintain our RIC status. Our ability to make follow-on investments may also be limited by OFS Advisor’sallocation policy. 45 Because we generally do not hold controlling equity interests in our portfolio companies, we may not be able to exercise control over our portfoliocompanies or to prevent decisions by management of our portfolio companies that could decrease the value of our investments. Although we may do so in the future, we generally do not hold controlling equity positions in our portfolio companies. As a result of not holdingcontrolling equity interests in our portfolio companies, we are subject to the risk that a portfolio company may make business decisions with which wedisagree, and that the management and/or shareholders of a portfolio company may take risks or otherwise act in ways that are adverse to our interests. Due tothe lack of liquidity of the debt and equity investments that we typically hold in our portfolio companies, we may not be able to dispose of our investmentsin the event we disagree with the actions of a portfolio company and may therefore suffer a decrease in the value of our investments. Defaults by our portfolio companies will harm our operating results. A portfolio company’s failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders could lead to defaults and, potentially,termination of its loans and foreclosure on its assets. This could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize such portfolio company’s abilityto meet its obligations under the debt or equity securities that we hold. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or tonegotiate new terms, which may include the waiver of certain financial covenants, with a defaulting portfolio company. Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, our investments in such companies. We have invested a substantial portion of our capital in first lien, unitranche, second-lien and subordinated loans issued by our portfolio companies.The portfolio companies may be permitted to incur, other debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, the debt securities in which we invest. By their terms,such debt instruments may provide that the holders are entitled to receive payment of interest or principal on or before the dates on which we are entitled toreceive payments in respect of the debt securities in which we invest. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcyof a portfolio company, holders of debt instruments ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company would typically be entitled to receivepayment in full before we receive any distribution in respect of our investment. After repaying senior creditors, the portfolio company may not have anyremaining assets to use for repaying its obligation to us. In the case of debt ranking equally with debt securities in which we invest, we would have to shareany distributions on an equal and ratable basis with other creditors holding such debt in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganizationor bankruptcy of the relevant portfolio company. Additionally, certain loans that we make to portfolio companies may be secured on a second-priority basis by the same collateral securing first-prioritydebt of such companies. The first-priority liens on the collateral will secure the portfolio company’s obligations under any outstanding senior debt and maysecure certain other future debt that may be permitted to be incurred by the portfolio company under the agreements governing the loans. The holders ofobligations secured by first-priority liens on the collateral will generally control the liquidation of, and be entitled to receive proceeds from, any realizationof the collateral to repay their obligations in full before us. In addition, the value of the collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market andeconomic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from sales of all of the collateral wouldbe sufficient to satisfy the loan obligations secured by the second-priority liens after payment in full of all obligations secured by the first-priority liens onthe collateral. If such proceeds were not sufficient to repay amounts outstanding under the loan obligations secured by the second-priority liens, then we, tothe extent not repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the collateral, would only have an unsecured claim against the portfolio company’s remaining assets, ifany. The rights we may have with respect to the collateral securing the loans we make to our portfolio companies with more senior debt outstanding mayalso be limited pursuant to the terms of one or more intercreditor agreements that we enter into with the holders of such more senior debt. Under a typicalintercreditor agreement, at any time that obligations that have the benefit of the first-priority liens are outstanding, any of the following actions that may betaken in respect of the collateral will be at the direction of the holders of the obligations secured by the first-priority liens: •the ability to cause the commencement of enforcement proceedings against the collateral; •the ability to control the conduct of such proceedings; •the approval of amendments to collateral documents; •releases of liens on the collateral; and •waivers of past defaults under collateral documents. We may not have the ability to control or direct such actions, even if our rights are adversely affected. 46 We may also make unsecured loans to portfolio companies, meaning that such loans will not benefit from any interest in collateral of such companies.Liens on such portfolio companies’ collateral, if any, will secure the portfolio company’s obligations under its outstanding secured debt and may securecertain future debt that is permitted to be incurred by the portfolio company under its secured loan agreements. The holders of obligations secured by suchliens will generally control the liquidation of, and be entitled to receive proceeds from, any realization of such collateral to repay their obligations in fullbefore us. In addition, the value of such collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers andother factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from sales of such collateral would be sufficient to satisfy our unsecured loan obligationsafter payment in full of all secured loan obligations. If such proceeds were not sufficient to repay the outstanding secured loan obligations, then ourunsecured claims would rank equally with the unpaid portion of such secured creditors’ claims against the portfolio company’s remaining assets, if any. If we make subordinated investments, the obligors or the portfolio companies may not generate sufficient cash flow to service their debt obligations to us. We make subordinated investments that rank below other obligations of the obligor in right of payment. Subordinated investments are subject togreater risk of default than senior obligations as a result of adverse changes in the financial condition of the obligor or in general economic conditions. If wemake a subordinated investment in a portfolio company, the portfolio company may be highly leveraged, and its relatively high debt-to-equity ratio maycreate increased risks that its operations might not generate sufficient cash flow to service all of its debt obligations. The disposition of our investments may result in contingent liabilities. A significant portion of our investments involve private securities. In connection with the disposition of an investment in private securities, we may berequired to make representations about the business and financial affairs of the portfolio company typical of those made in connection with the sale of abusiness. We may also be required to indemnify the purchasers of such investment to the extent that any such representations turn out to be inaccurate, orwith respect to potential liabilities. These arrangements may result in contingent liabilities that ultimately result in funding obligations that we must satisfythrough our return of distributions previously made to us. Our base management fee may induce OFS Advisor to cause us to incur leverage. Our base management fee is payable based upon our total assets, other than cash, cash equivalents, and intangible asset and goodwill resulting from ouracquisitions of the remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December 4, 2013, but including assets purchased with borrowed amountsand including assets owned by any consolidated entity. This fee structure may encourage OFS Advisor to cause us to borrow money to finance additionalinvestments. Under certain circumstances, the use of borrowed money may increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor holders of our commonstock. Given the subjective nature of the investment decisions made by OFS Advisor on our behalf, our board of directors may not be able to monitor thispotential conflict of interest effectively. Our incentive fee may induce OFS Advisor to make certain investments, including speculative investments. The incentive fee payable by us to OFS Advisor may create an incentive for OFS Advisor to make investments on our behalf that are riskier or morespeculative than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangement. The way in which the incentive fee payable to OFS Advisor isdetermined may encourage OFS Advisor to use leverage to increase the return on our investments. Under certain circumstances, the use of leverage mayincrease the likelihood of default, which would disfavor our shareholders. OFS Advisor receives an incentive fee based, in part, upon net capital gains realized on our investments. Unlike that portion of the incentive fee basedon income, there is no hurdle rate applicable to the portion of the incentive fee based on net capital gains. As a result, OFS Advisor may have a tendency toinvest more capital in investments that are likely to result in capital gains as compared to income producing securities. Such a practice could result in ourinvesting in more speculative securities than would otherwise be the case, which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during economicdownturns. We may invest, to the extent permitted by law, in the securities and instruments of other investment companies, including private funds, and, to theextent we so invest, will bear our ratable share of any such investment company’s expenses, including management and performance fees. We will alsoremain obligated to pay management and incentive fees to OFS Advisor with respect to the assets invested in the securities and instruments of otherinvestment companies. With respect to each of these investments, each of our shareholders will bear his or her share of the management and incentive fee ofOFS Advisor as well as indirectly bearing the management and performance fees and other expenses of any investment companies in which we invest. Forexample, by virtue of our investment in OFS Capital WM, our shareholders indirectly incur management fees payable to the loan manager of the OFS CapitalWM portfolio. 47 Our board of directors is charged with protecting our interests by monitoring how OFS Advisor addresses these and other conflicts of interestsassociated with its management services and compensation. While our board of directors is not expected to review or approve each borrowing or incurrenceof leverage, our independent directors will periodically review OFS Advisor’s services and fees. In connection with these reviews, our independent directorswill consider whether our fees and expenses (including those related to leverage) remain appropriate. OFS Advisor’s liability is limited under the Investment Advisory Agreement, and we have agreed to indemnify OFS Advisor against certain liabilities,which may lead OFS Advisor to act in a riskier manner on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, OFS Advisor will not assume any responsibility to us other than to render the services called for under thatagreement, and it will not be responsible for any action of our board of directors in following or declining to follow OFS Advisor’s advice orrecommendations. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, OFS Advisor and its and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, members,managers, shareholders and employees will not be liable to us, any subsidiary of ours, our directors, our shareholders or any subsidiary’s shareholders orpartners for acts or omissions performed in accordance with and pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, except those resulting from acts constitutinggross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard of such person’s duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In addition, we haveagreed to indemnify OFS Advisor and its and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, members, managers, shareholders and employees from and againstany claims or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred, arising out of or in connection with our business andoperations or any action taken or omitted on our behalf pursuant to authority granted by the Investment Advisory Agreement, except where attributable togross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard of such person’s duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement. These protectionsmay lead OFS Advisor to act in a riskier manner when acting on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account. We may be subject to additional risks if we engage in hedging transactions and/or invest in foreign securities. The 1940 Act generally requires that 70% of our investments be in issuers each of whom is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place ofbusiness in, any state of the United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands or any other possession of the United States. Ourinvestment strategy does not presently contemplate investments in securities of non-U.S. companies. We expect that these investments would focus on thesame junior debt securities investments that we make in U.S. middle-market companies and accordingly would be complementary to our overall strategy andenhance the diversity of our holdings. Investing in securities of emerging market issuers involves many risks, including economic, social, political, financial,tax and security conditions in the emerging market, potential inflationary economic environments, regulation by foreign governments, different accountingstandards and political uncertainties. Economic, social, political, financial, tax and security conditions also could negatively affect the value of emergingmarket companies. These factors could include changes in the emerging market government’s economic and fiscal policies, the possible imposition of, orchanges in, currency exchange laws or other laws or restrictions applicable to the emerging market companies or investments in their securities and thepossibility of fluctuations in the rate of exchange between currencies. Engaging in either hedging transactions or investing in foreign securities would entail additional risks to our shareholders. We could, for example, useinstruments such as interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors and, if we were to invest in foreign securities, we could use instruments such as forwardcontracts or currency options and borrow under a credit facility in currencies selected to minimize our foreign currency exposure. In each such case, wegenerally would seek to hedge against fluctuations of the relative values of our portfolio positions from changes in market interest rates or currency exchangerates. Hedging against a decline in the values of our portfolio positions would not eliminate the possibility of fluctuations in the values of such positions orprevent losses if the values of the positions declined. However, such hedging could establish other positions designed to gain from those same developments,thereby offsetting the decline in the value of such portfolio positions. Such hedging transactions could also limit the opportunity for gain if the values of theunderlying portfolio positions increased. Moreover, it might not be possible to hedge against an exchange rate or interest rate fluctuation that was sogenerally anticipated that we would not be able to enter into a hedging transaction at an acceptable price. While we may enter into such transactions to seek to reduce currency exchange rate and interest rate risks, unanticipated changes in currency exchangerates or interest rates could result in poorer overall investment performance than if we had not engaged in any such hedging transactions. In addition, thedegree of correlation between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging strategy and price movements in the portfolio positions being hedgedcould vary. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we might not seek to establish a perfect correlation between the hedging instruments and the portfolioholdings being hedged. Any such imperfect correlation could prevent us from achieving the intended hedge and expose us to risk of loss. In addition, itmight not be possible to hedge fully or perfectly against currency fluctuations affecting the value of securities denominated in non-U.S. currencies becausethe value of those securities would likely fluctuate as a result of factors not related to currency fluctuations. 48 We may not realize gains from our equity investments. When we invest in certain senior secured and subordinated loans, we may acquire warrants or other equity securities of portfolio companies as well. Wealso may invest in equity securities directly. To the extent we hold equity investments, except as described below, we will attempt to dispose of them andrealize gains upon our disposition of them. However, the equity interests we receive may not appreciate in value and may decline in value. As a result, wemay not be able to realize gains from our equity interests, and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient tooffset any other losses we experience. In the case of OFS Capital WM, our wholly-owned subsidiary, we will not receive direct benefits from the sale of assetsin its portfolio. Rather, our return on our investment in such assets will depend on the ability of OFS Capital WM’s loan portfolio to generate cash flow inexcess of payments required to be made to other parties under the terms of the OFS Capital WM Facility documentation and distribution of the excess to us. Risks Related to Our Common Stock There is a risk that shareholders may not receive distributions or that our distributions may not grow over time and a portion of our distributions may be areturn of capital. We have made distributions on a quarterly basis to our shareholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We cannot assure shareholders thatwe will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. Our abilityto pay distributions might be adversely affected by the impact of one or more of the risk factors described in this annual report on Form 10-K. Due to the assetcoverage test applicable to us under the 1940 Act as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly. As with any stock, the market price of our common stock will fluctuate with market conditions and other factors. The market price and liquidity of themarket for shares of our common stock may be significantly affected by numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not be directlyrelated to our operating performance. These factors include: •significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of business development companies or other companies in our sector,which is not necessarily related to the operating performance of these companies; •changes in regulatory policies or tax guidelines, particularly with respect to RICs, SBICs or business development companies; •loss of RIC or BDC status; •failure of SBIC I LP to maintain its status as an SBIC; •changes or perceived changes in earnings or variations in operating results; •changes or perceived changes in the value of our portfolio of investments; •changes in accounting guidelines governing valuation of our investments; •any shortfall in revenue or net income or any increase in losses from levels expected by investors or securities analysts; •departure of OFS Advisor’s, OFSC’s or any of their affiliates’ key personnel; •operating performance of companies comparable to us; •general economic trends and other external factors; and •loss of a major funding source. Certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could deter takeover attempts and have anadverse impact on the price of our common stock. The Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws contain provisions that may have the effect of discouraginga third party from making an acquisition proposal for us. We have also adopted measures that may make it difficult for a third party to obtain control of us,including provisions of our articles of incorporation dividing our board of directors into three classes with the term of one class expiring at each annualmeeting of shareholders. These anti-takeover provisions may inhibit a change in control in circumstances that could give the holders of our common stockthe opportunity to realize a premium over the market price of our common stock. 49 Our common stock may trade below its net asset value per share, which limits our ability to raise additional equity capital. If our common stock is trading below its net asset value per share, we will generally not be able to issue additional shares of our common stock at itsmarket price without first obtaining the approval for such issuance from our shareholders and our independent directors. Shares of BDCs, including shares ofour common stock, have traded at discounts to their net asset values. As of December 31, 2013, our net asset value per share was $14.58. The daily averageclosing price of our shares on the Nasdaq Global Market for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $12.81. If our common stock trades below net asset value,the higher the cost of equity capital may result in it being unattractive to raise new equity, which may limit our ability to grow. The risk of trading below netasset value is separate and distinct from the risk that our net asset value per share may decline. We cannot predict whether shares of our common stock willtrade above, at or below our net asset value. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments Not applicable. Item 2. Properties We do not own or lease any real estate or other physical properties material to our operation. Our headquarters are currently located at 2850 West GolfRoad, 5th Floor, Rolling Meadows, Illinois 60008, and are provided by OFS Services pursuant to the Administration Agreement. Beginning March 24, 2014,our headquarters are moving to 10 S. Wacker, Suite 2500, Chicago, IL 60606 in Chicago, Illinois. Additional operations are conducted from offices in NewYork, New York and Los Angeles, California, which are also provided by OFS Services pursuant to the Administration Agreement. We believe that our officefacilities are suitable and adequate for our business as we contemplate continuing to conduct it. Item 3. Legal Proceedings We, OFS Advisor and OFS Services, are not currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings threatened against us as of December 31, 2013.From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business including the enforcement of our rightsunder contracts with our portfolio companies. Furthermore, third parties may try to seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of ourportfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have amaterial effect upon our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures Not applicable. 50 PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “OFS.” The following table sets forth the range of high and lowsales prices of our common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market and our net asset value per share as determined as of the last day of each quartersince our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on November 8, 2012 through December 31. 2013: Sales Price Period High Low Fiscal 2013 Fourth Quarter $12.95 $11.59 Third Quarter 12.66 11.66 Second Quarter 14.54 11.18 First Quarter 14.54 13.87 Fiscal 2012 Fourth Quarter (4) $14.37 $12.88 (1)Net asset value per share is determined as of the last day in the relevant quarter and therefore may not reflect the net asset value per share on the date ofthe high and low sales prices. The net asset values shown are based on outstanding shares at the end of each period.(2)Calculated as of the respective high or low sales price divided by the quarter end NAV.(3)Represents the dividend declared in the specified quarter, which, if prorated for the number of days remaining in the fourth quarter after our IPO inNovember 2012, would be $0.34 per share.(4)Period from November 8, 2012 through December 31, 2012 (excludes IPO price of $15.00). The last reported sale price for our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on March 13, 2014 was $12.35 per share. We were added to theNASDAQ Global Select Market beginning January 2, 2014. As of March 13, 2014, there were two holders of record of the common stock, one of which wasOFSAM. The other holder of record does not identify shareholders for whom shares are held beneficially in “nominee” or “street name.” Sales of Unregistered Securities As part of the BDC Conversion, OFSAM was issued an aggregate of 2,912,024 shares of common stock in OFS Capital Corporation in exchange for itslimited liability company interest in OFS Capital, LLC at an average estimated equivalent price of $19.14 per share. These shares are not registered and, as aresult, are restricted securities under the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and may not be sold in the absence of registration underthe Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless an exemption from registration is available, including exemptions contained in Rule 144. Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we did not purchase any shares of our common stock in the open market. 51 Performance Graph This graph compares the return on our common stock with that of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Index and the Russell 1000 Index and the SNL U.S.RICs Index, for the period from November 8, 2012, the date our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market, through December 31, 2013. Thegraph assumes that, on November 8, 2012, a person invested $100 in our common stock, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Index, the Russell 1000 Index andthe SNL U.S. RICs Index. The graph measures total shareholder return, which takes into account changes in stock price and assumes reinvestment of alldividends and distributions prior to any tax effect. For the graph above, the Company has included the SNL U.S. RICs (Registered Investment Companies) Index as we believe the companies included insuch index are more representative of the Company’s line-of-business than the companies included in the Russell 1000. Given this is the first year that theSNL U.S. RICs Index is being presented, we have also included the Russell 1000 Index which was presented in the preceding year’s Form 10-K. The graph and other information furnished under this Part II Item 5 of this Form 10-K shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or to be “filed”with the SEC or subject to Regulation 14A or 14C, or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The stock priceperformance included in the above graph is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance. Distributions We are taxed as a RIC under the Code. Generally, a RIC is entitled to deduct dividends it pays to its shareholders from its income to determine “taxableincome.” Taxable income includes our taxable interest, dividend and fee income, and taxable net capital gains. Taxable income generally differs from netincome for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes netunrealized appreciation or depreciation, as gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized. In addition, gains realized for financialreporting purposes may differ from gains included in taxable income as a result of our election to recognize gains using installment sale treatment, whichgenerally result in the deferment of gains for tax purposes until notes or other amounts, including amounts held in escrow, received as consideration from thesale of investments are collected in cash. Taxable income includes non-cash income, such as changes in accrued and reinvested interest and dividends, whichincludes contractual PIK interest, and the amortization of discounts and fees. Cash collections of income resulting from contractual PIK interest or theamortization of discounts and fees generally occur upon the repayment of the loans or debt securities that include such items. Non-cash taxable income isreduced by non-cash expenses, such as realized losses and depreciation, and amortization expense. Our board of directors maintains a variable dividend policy with the objective of distributing four quarterly distributions in an amount not less than 90-100% of our taxable quarterly income or potential annual income for a particular year. In addition, at the end of the year, we may also pay an additionalspecial dividend, or fifth dividend, such that we may distribute approximately all of our annual taxable income in the year it was earned, while maintainingthe option to spill over our excess taxable income. 52 The following table summarizes our distributions declared and paid on all shares since inception to date: Amount Date Declared Record Date Payment Date Per Share Total Amount Fiscal 2014 January 21, 2014 January 31, 2014 February 14, 2014 $0.34 $3,274 Fiscal 2013 September 25, 2013 October 17, 2013 October 31, 2013 $0.34 $3,273 June 25, 2013 July 17, 2013 July 31, 2013 0.34 3,272 March 26, 2013 April 17, 2013 April 30, 2013 0.34 3,269 Fiscal 2012 November 26, 2012 (1) January 17, 2013 January 31, 2013 $0.17 $1,628 (1)Represents the dividend declared in the specified quarter, which, if prorated for the number of days remaining in the fourth quarter after our IPO inNovember 2012, would be $0.34 per share. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of thesedistributions from time to time. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, includingpossible loss of our status as a regulated investment company. We cannot assure shareholders that they will receive any distributions at a particular level. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally are treated first as a return of capital to the extent of theshareholder’s tax basis, and any remaining distributions is treated as a capital gain. The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions is madeannually as of the end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year; therefore, a determinationmade on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the tax attributes of our annual distributions to shareholders. For dividends and distributions paidduring the year ended December 31, 2013, out of our approximately $11.4 million of distributions, approximately 67% represented ordinary income and33% represented a return of capital. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on thesale of securities, and/or a return of paid-in-capital surplus, which is a nontaxable distribution) is mailed to our U.S. shareholders. To the extent our taxableearnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to ourshareholders. We maintain an “opt-out” dividend reinvestment plan for our common shareholders. As a result, if we declare a dividend, cash dividends areautomatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock unless the shareholder specifically “opts out” of the dividend reinvestment plan andchooses to receive cash dividends. 53 Item 6.

These forward-lookingstatements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current and prospective portfolioinvestments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,”“would,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Thesestatements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control anddifficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including withoutlimitation: •our limited experience operating a BDC or an SBIC, or maintaining our status as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code; •our dependence on key personnel; •our ability to maintain or develop referral relationships; •the administration of OFS Capital WM’s portfolio by an unaffiliated loan manager; •our ability to replicate historical results; •the ability of OFS Advisor to identify, invest in and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria; •actual and potential conflicts of interest with OFS Advisor and other affiliates of OFSAM; •constraint on investment due to access to material nonpublic information; •restrictions on our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates; •limitations on the amount of SBA-guaranteed debentures that may be issued by an SBIC; •Our ability to comply with SBA regulations and requirements; •the use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments; •competition for investment opportunities; •our ability to qualify and maintain our qualification as a RIC and as a BDC; •the ability of SBIC I LP, OFS Capital WM and any other portfolio companies to make distributions enabling us to meet RIC requirements; •our ability to raise capital as a BDC; •the timing, form and amount of any distributions from our portfolio companies; •the impact of a protracted decline in the liquidity of credit markets on our business; •the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest; •uncertain valuations of our portfolio investments; and •the effect of new or modified laws or regulations governing our operations. 55 Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could proveto be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties,the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this annual report on Form 10-K should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plansand objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include, among others, those described or identified in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this annualreport on Form 10-K. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this annual report on Form10-K. We have based the forward-looking statements on information available to us on the date of this annual report on Form 10-K. Except as required by thefederal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future eventsor 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 theSEC, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. The forward-looking statements andprojections contained in this annual report on Form 10-K are excluded from the safe harbor protection provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933,as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statementsand the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K. Overview We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. Our investment objective is to provide our shareholderswith both current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments and, to a lesser extent, equity investments. Our investment strategyfocuses primarily on investments in middle-market companies in the United States. We use the term “middle-market” to refer to companies that may exhibitone or more of the following characteristics: number of employees between 150 and 2,000; revenues between $15 million and $300 million; annual earningsbefore interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, between $3 million and $50 million; generally, private companies owned by private equityfirms or owners/operators; and enterprise value between $10 million and $500 million. For additional information about how we define the middle-market,see “General—Investment Criteria/Guidelines.” As of December 31, 2013, our investment portfolio consisted of outstanding loans of approximately $237.7 million in aggregate principal amount in58 portfolio companies, of which $49.0 million in aggregate principal amount was held by SBIC I LP our wholly-owned SBIC subsidiary, in eight portfoliocompanies. As of December 31, 2013, 93% of our investment portfolio was comprised of senior secured loans, 4% of subordinated loans and 3% of equityinvestments, at fair value. While our investment strategy focuses primarily on middle-market companies in the United States, including senior secured, unitranche, second-lienand mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, warrants and other minority equity securities, we also may invest up to 30% of our portfolio in opportunisticinvestments of non-eligible portfolio companies. Specifically, as part of this 30% basket, we may consider investments in investment funds that are operatingpursuant to certain exceptions to the 1940 Act and in advisers to similar investment funds, as well as in debt of middle-market companies located outside ofthe United States and debt and equity of public companies that do not meet the definition of eligible portfolio companies because their market capitalizationof publicly traded equity securities exceeds the levels provided for in the 1940 Act. Our investment strategy includes SBIC I LP, which received a SBIC license from the SBA in May 2012. On December 4, 2013, we received approvalfrom the SBA to acquire all of the limited partnership interests in SBIC I LP and all of the ownership interests of its general partner, SBIC I GP, that wereowned or subscribed for by other persons. We acquired the interests on December 4, 2013, which resulted in SBIC I LP becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary.The transaction was finalized in January 2014. For additional information on the acquisition of SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP, see “Item 8 – Financial Statementsand Supplementary Data.” The SBIC license allows SBIC I LP to receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, subject to the issuance of a leveragecommitment by the SBA and other customary procedures. SBA leverage funding is subject to SBIC I LP’s payment of certain fees to the SBA, and the abilityof SBIC I LP to draw on the commitment is subject to its compliance with SBA regulations and policies, including an audit by the SBA. For additionalinformation regarding the regulation of SBIC I LP, see “- Regulation—Small Business Investment Company Regulations.” 56 On November 26, 2013, we received an exemptive order from the SEC to permit us to exclude the debt of SBIC I LP guaranteed by the SBA from thedefinition of senior securities in the statutory 200% asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act. Our investment activities are managed by OFS Advisor, and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent of us, OFSAdvisor and its affiliates. Under the investment advisory agreement between us and OFS Advisor, we have agreed to pay OFS Advisor an annual basemanagement fee based on the average value of our total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amountsand including assets owned by any consolidated entity) as well as an incentive fee based on our investment performance. We have also entered into anadministration agreement with OFS Capital Services, our Administrator. Under our Administration Agreement, we have agreed to reimburse OFS Services forour allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of our independent directors) of overhead and other expenses incurred by OFS Services inperforming its obligations under the Administration Agreement. As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Underthe relevant SEC rules, the term “eligible portfolio company” includes all private companies, companies whose securities are not listed on a nationalsecurities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of lessthan $250 million, in each case organized in the United States. We are permitted to borrow money from time to time within the levels permitted by the 1940 Act (which generally allows us to incur leverage for up to50% of our asset base). We may borrow money when the terms and conditions available are favorable to do so and are aligned with our investment strategyand portfolio composition. The use of borrowed funds or the proceeds of preferred stock to make investments would have its own specific benefits and risks,and all of the costs of borrowing funds or issuing preferred stock would be borne by holders of our common stock. We have elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,or the Code. To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and assets diversification requirements. Pursuant to theseelections, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income we distribute to our shareholders. Outlook on Market Conditions Beginning in 2007, global capital markets experienced stress, volatility, and periods of disruption, manifested in a lack of liquidity in the debt capitalmarkets, write-offs in the financial services sector, re-pricing of credit risk and failure of certain major financial institutions. Despite actions of the UnitedStates federal government and foreign governments, these events contributed to worsening general economic conditions that materially and adverselyimpacted the broader financial and credit markets and reduced the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole, and financial servicesfirms in particular. While the volatility and disruption peaked in the 2008 to 2009 period, and indicators suggest improvement in capital markets since thattime, conditions could deteriorate in the future. During such market disruptions, we may have difficulty raising debt or equity capital especially as a result ofcertain regulatory constraints. At the same time, the capital markets for the companies in which we invest showed signs of increased investment activity in 2012 and 2013, ascompared to prior years. Therefore, to the extent we have capital available, we believe this is an opportune time to invest in the lending market for suchcompanies. 57 Recent Developments and Other Factors Affecting Comparability BDC Conversion. On November 7, 2012, OFS Capital, LLC converted into a Delaware corporation, OFS Capital Corporation, and the outstandinglimited liability company interest in OFS Capital, LLC was converted into 2,912,024 shares of common stock in OFS Capital Corporation. As part of theBDC Conversion, OFSAM was issued an aggregate of 2,912,024 shares of common stock in OFS Capital Corporation in exchange for its limited liabilitycompany interest in OFS Capital, LLC at an average estimated equivalent price of $19.14 per share. See Note 2 in our December 31, 2013 consolidatedfinancial statements for more information regarding the cumulative effect of our BDC election. Pre-IPO Transactions with SBIC I LP. Prior to May 10, 2012, we were deemed to be the primary beneficiary of SBIC I LP and, therefore, in accordancewith Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810, or ASC Topic 810, the financial statements of SBIC I LP were consolidated with ours. On May 10, 2012,as a result of SBIC I LP’s receipt of an SBIC license, we became a 68.4% limited partner in SBIC I LP and were deemed, under the applicable accountingliterature, to continue to hold a controlling financial interest in SBIC I LP, as described more fully in our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, wecontinued to consolidate the financial statements of SBIC I LP with ours at June 30, 2012. On July 27, 2012, however, SBIC I LP repaid its loans togetherwith accrued interest due to us in an aggregate amount of approximately $16.6 million, and the three investment professionals of SBIC I GP resigned from ouraffiliated entity. As a result, effective as of July 27, 2012, we deconsolidated SBIC I LP’s financial statements from our own, and accounted for our investmentin SBIC I LP under the equity method of accounting (“Tamarix Deconsolidation”). From November 8, 2012, upon our BDC Conversion, until ouracquisitions of the remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December 4, 2013, we accounted for our equity investment in SBIC I LP atfair value. Acquisition of SBIC I LP & SBIC I GP Interests. On December 4, 2013, the Company purchased the remaining limited partnership interests in SBIC ILP (“Tamarix LP Acquisition”), making SBIC I LP a wholly owned subsidiary of OFS Capital. On December 4, 2013, OFS Capital also acquired all of theremaining membership interests in SBIC I GP (“Tamarix GP Acquisition”). The Tamarix LP Acquisition and Tamarix GP Acquisition are referred tocollectively as the “Tamarix Acquisitions” (see Note 4 of our December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements for more details). The transaction wasfinalized in January 2014. Upon the Tamarix Acquisitions, on December 4, 2013, we again consolidated the financial statements of both SBIC I LP and SBICGP into our financial statements. WM 2012, 2013, and 2014 Credit Facility Amendments. Prior to the WM 2012 Credit Facility Amendments completed in March 2012, undergenerally accepted accounting principles, we did not consolidate OFS Capital WM’s financial statements into our financial statements, as we determined inaccordance with ASC Topic 810 that, despite our owning 100% of the equity interests of OFS Capital WM, the loan manager, Madison Capital, was theprimary beneficiary of OFS Capital WM. Therefore, prior to March 30, 2012, we recorded our equity interest in OFS Capital WM in our financial statementsbut did not consolidate OFS Capital WM’s financial statements with our own. As a result of the WM 2012 Credit Facility Amendments, OFS Capital succeeded Madison Capital to the controlling financial interest in OFS CapitalWM. In light of this and other factors, we have consolidated the financial statements of OFS Capital WM into our financial statements as of March 30, 2012.The WM 2012 Credit Facility Amendments were entered into in light of OFS Capital WM having made investments which utilized the substantial majorityof its borrowing capacity under the OFS Capital WM Facility. Accordingly, it was determined that the management of an existing portfolio of investmentassets, as opposed to buying and originating activities, would constitute the activities that most significantly impact OFS Capital WM’s economicperformance. On November 22, 2013, the OFS Capital WM Facility was further amended. Pursuant to the amendment, (1) the loan with Wells Fargo was extended toDecember 31, 2018; (2) the reinvestment period for the Wells Fargo loan was extended to December 31, 2015; (3) the accrued interest rate on outstandingClass A loans was reduced to LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum, and (4) the advance rate on borrowings was increased from 65% to 70%. On January 17, 2014, the OFS Capital WM Facility was further amended, pursuant to which the calculation of the borrowing base was adjusted andthe minimum equity requirement was lowered from $65,000 to $50,000, resulting in additional liquidity for the Company. 58 Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United Statesrequires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets andliabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from thoseestimates. We have identified the following items as critical accounting policies: Valuation of Portfolio Investments. The most significant estimate inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements is the valuation of investments and the relatedamounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded. Our investments are carried at fair value in accordance with the 1940 Act and ASC Topic 820. At December 31, 2013, approximately 85% of theCompany’s total assets represented investments in portfolio companies that are valued at fair value by our board of directors. Value, as defined in Section 2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act, is (i) the market price for those securities for which a market quotation is readily available and (ii) for all other securities and assets, fairvalue is as determined in good faith by the board of directors. Our debt and equity securities are primarily comprised of investments in middle marketcompanies whose securities are not publicly traded. Our investments in these portfolio companies are generally considered Level 3 assets under ASC Topic820 because the inputs used to value the investments are generally unobservable. As such, we value substantially all of our investments at fair value asdetermined in good faith by our board of directors pursuant to a consistent valuation policy in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 820 and the1940 Act. Due to the inherent uncertainty in determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of ourinvestments determined in good faith by our Board may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a readily available market existedfor such investments, and the differences could be material. Our policies relating to the valuation of our portfolio investments are as follows: Investments for which sufficient market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations. We may also obtain indicative priceswith respect to certain of our investments from pricing services or brokers or dealers in order to value such investments. There is not a readily availablemarket value for many of our investments; those debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available arevalued at fair value as determined in good faith by the board of directors. We value such investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our board ofdirectors using a documented valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. Our valuation of each of our assets for which sufficient marketquotations are not readily available is reviewed by one or more independent third-party valuation firms at least once every 12 months. Our board of directors is ultimately and solely responsible for determining the fair value of the portfolio investments that are not publicly traded, whosemarket prices are not readily available on a quarterly basis or any other situation where portfolio investments require a fair value determination. With respect to investments for which sufficient market quotations are not readily available or for which no or an insufficient number of indicativeprices from pricing services or brokers or dealers have been received, our board of directors will undertake, on a quarterly basis, unless otherwise noted, amulti-step valuation process, as described below: •For each debt investment, a basic credit rating review process will be completed. The risk rating on every credit facility will be reviewed andeither reaffirmed or revised by the investment committee. This process will establish base information for the quarterly valuation process. •Each portfolio company or investment will be valued by an investment professional. •Preliminary valuation conclusions will then be documented and discussed with individual members of the Advisor Investment Committee. •The preliminary valuations will then be submitted to the Advisor Investment Committee for ratification. •Third-party valuation firm(s) will be engaged to provide valuation services as requested, by reviewing the preliminary valuations of the AdvisorInvestment Committee. The Advisor Investment Committee’s preliminary fair value conclusions on each of our assets, for which sufficient marketquotations are not readily available will be reviewed and assessed by a third-party valuation firm at least once in every 12-month period, andmore often as determined by our board of directors or required by our valuation policy. Such valuation assessment may be in the form of positiveassurance, range of values or other valuation method based on the discretion of our board of directors. 59 •Our board of directors will discuss valuations and determine the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input ofOFS Advisor and, where appropriate, the respective independent valuation firms. The types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant, the nature and realizable value of anycollateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business,comparison to publicly traded securities and other relevant factors. Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our financial statements will express the uncertaintywith respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our financial statements. Revenue Recognition. Our revenue recognition policies are as follows: Investments and Related Investment Income: Investments are recorded at fair value. The Company’s board of directors determines the fair value of itsportfolio investments. The determination of the fair value of the portfolio investments includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments.Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual interest terms of debt investments. The Company accrues interestincome until certain events take place, which may place a loan into a non-accrual status. In addition, the Company may generate revenue in the form ofcommitment, origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. Loan origination fees,OID, market discount or premium, and loan amendment fees (collectively, “net loan origination fee income”) are capitalized, and the Company accretes oramortizes such amounts over the life of the loan as interest income. All other income is recorded into income when earned. Further, in connection with theCompany’s debt investments, the Company will sometimes receive warrants or similar no cost equity-related securities (“Warrants”). The Companydetermines the cost basis of Warrants based upon their respective fair values on the date of receipt in proportion to the total fair value of the debt andWarrants received. Any resulting difference between the face amount of the debt and its recorded fair value resulting from the assignment of value to theWarrants is treated as OID, and accreted into interest income over the life of the debt security. Dividend income is recorded at the time dividends are declaredor at the point an obligation exists for the portfolio company to make a distribution. Distribution of earnings from portfolio companies are evaluated todetermine if the distribution is income or return of capital. For investments with contractual PIK interest which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance that generally becomesdue at maturity (or at some other stipulated date), the Company will not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interestis not collectible. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the netproceeds from the disposition and the cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. The Company reportschanges in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) oninvestments in the consolidated statement of operations. Non-accrual. Loans on which the accrual of interest income has been discontinued are designated as non-accrual loans, and non-accrual loans arefurther designated to be accounted for under either a non-accrual cash method or a non-accrual cost recovery method. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual when a loan either: (i) is delinquent for 90 days or more on principal or interest based on contractual terms of the loan (unless well secured and in theprocess of collection), or (ii) in the opinion of the Company’s management, there is reasonable doubt about the collectability. When loans are placed on non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Interest payments received on non-accrualloans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Interest accruals are resumed on non-accrual loans onlywhen they are brought current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectibleas to all principal and interest. Principles of consolidation. The Company’s December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, OFSCapital WM, OFS Funding, LLC, SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP. The Company consolidates an affiliated subsidiary if it owns more than 50 percent of thesubsidiary’s equity and holds the controlling financial interest in such subsidiary. The Company also consolidates a variable interest entity (“VIE”) if it is theprimary beneficiary in the VIE. Effective March 30, 2012, the Company consolidated the financial statements of OFS Capital WM into its own. EffectiveJuly 27, 2012, the Company deconsolidated the financial statements of SBIC I LP from its own. Effective December 4, 2013, the Company consolidated thefinancial statements of SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP into its own. See “Item 8 – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Note 3 and Note 4” for moredetailed information. Portfolio Composition and Investment Activity The total fair value of our investments was approximately $237.9 million at December 31, 2013, approximately $232.2 million at December 31, 2012,and approximately $225.0 million at December 31, 2011. The amount at December 31, 2011 gives pro forma effect to our BDC/RIC elections adjustmentsand the WM Consolidation Adjustments, which refers to the financial statement adjustments to consolidate OFS Capital WM’s financial statements into ourown as a result of the WM 2012 Credit Facility Amendments (the “WM Consolidation Adjustments”). 60 For the year ended December 31, 2013, we closed debt investments with eight companies with an aggregate face value of approximately $41.2 millionand made equity investments totaling approximately $2.5 million in one portfolio company. Prior to our December 4, 2013 Tamarix Acquisitions, SBIC I LPclosed nine investments with five portfolio companies during the period January 1, 2013 through December 4, 2013. SBIC I LP’s nine new investmentsduring that period consisted of four debt investments with total principal balance of $19.4 million and unfunded commitments of $3.3 million as well as fiveequity investments purchased for a total of $0.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we received approximately $63.1 million in proceeds fromprincipal payments on debt investments and sold three debt investments for approximately $13.9 million, of which approximately $4.5 million was settled inJanuary 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2012, OFS Capital WM closed debt investment with 24 companies with an aggregate face value of approximately$91.0 million, and SBIC I LP closed an investment with one portfolio company with a face value of approximately $3.3 million. For the year endedDecember 31, 2011, OFS Capital and OFS Capital WM closed loans with 41 companies with an aggregate face value of approximately $201.2 million. OnMay 11, 2012, due to a reduction in the borrowing base value ascribed to a $4.7 million (principal amount) loan owned by OFS Capital WM followingMarch 31, 2012, an affiliate of OFSAM purchased the loan from OFS Capital WM at its fair value as of March 31, 2012 of $4.2 million. We recognized arealized loss of approximately $1.2 million from this transaction. For the year ended December 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, after givingpro forma effect to the WM Consolidation Adjustments, we had approximately $32.7 million and $63.2 million, respectively, in net debt repayments (net ofrevolver advances) in existing portfolio companies and sold approximately $15.0 million and $21.2 million of our loans, respectively. We categorize debt investments into seven risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt. Foradditional information regarding our risk categories, see “Item 1. Business- General-Portfolio Review/Risk Monitoring”. The following table shows the classification of our debt investments portfolio by credit rating as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. At December 31,2011, the Company had two credits, both of which had a risk rating of 3: December 31, 2013 December 31, 2012 Debt Debt Investments, % of Debt Investments, % of Debt at Fair Value Investments at Fair Value Investments Credit Rating (Dollor amounts in thousands) 1 $- 0.0% $- 0.0%2 - 0.0% - 0.0%3 204,273 88.6% 211,114 92.8%4 17,384 7.5% 16,428 7.2%5 7,846 3.4% - 0.0%6 1,051 0.5% - 0.0%7 - 0.0% - 0.0% $230,554 100.0% $227,542 100.0% 61 The following table shows the cost and fair value of our portfolio of investments by asset class as of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, as well aspro forma at December 31, 2011, after giving effect to the WM Consolidation Adjustments.

Throughout this document, theweighted average yield on debt investments at fair value is computed as (a) total annual stated interest on accruing loans plus the annualized amortization ofdeferred loan origination fees and accretion of OID divided by (b) total debt investments at fair value. The weighted average yield on debt investments at fairvalue is computed as of the balance sheet date and excludes assets on non-accrual status as of such date. As of December 31, 2013, floating rate loans comprised 85% of our debt investment portfolio and fixed rate loans comprised 15% of our debtinvestment portfolio. Our level of investment activity may vary substantially from period to period depending on various factors, including, but not limited to, the amount ofdebt and equity capital available to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, general economic environment and thecompetitive environment for the types of investments we make. Results of Operations Key Financial Measures The following is a discussion of the key financial measures that management employs in reviewing the performance of our operations. Revenues. We generate revenue in the form of interest income on debt investments and capital gains and distributions, if any, from our investmentsecurities in portfolio companies. Our debt investments typically have a term of three to eight years and bear interest at fixed and floating rates. In someinstances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we anticipate receivingrepayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments may fluctuate significantlyfrom period to period. On occasion, our portfolio activity may also reflect the proceeds of sales of securities. In some cases, our investments will provide fordeferred interest payments or PIK interest (meaning interest paid in the form of additional principal amount of the loan instead of in cash). In addition, wemay generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination and sourcing, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance andconsulting fees. Loan origination fees, OID, market discount or premium, and loan amendment fees are capitalized, and the Company accretes or amortizessuch amounts over the life of the loan as interest income. When we receive principal payments on a loan in an amount that exceeds its carrying value, we willalso record the excess principal payment as income. Dividend income, if any, will be recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collectsuch amounts. 62 Expenses. Our primary operating expenses include interest expense due under our outstanding borrowings (both the OFS Capital WM Facility and theSBA debentures), the payment of fees to OFS Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement, our allocable portion of overhead expenses under theAdministration Agreement and other operating costs described below. Additionally, we will pay interest expense on any outstanding debt under any newcredit facility or other debt instrument we may enter into. We will bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, whetherincurred by us directly or on our behalf by a third party, including: •the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services; •the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of our common stock and other securities; •fees payable to third parties relating to making investments, including out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with performing due diligenceand reviews of prospective investments; •transfer agent and custodial fees; •out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts; •federal and state registration fees and any stock exchange listing fees; •U.S. federal, state and local taxes; •independent directors’ fees and expenses; •brokerage commissions; •fidelity bond, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and other insurance premiums; •direct costs, such as printing, mailing and long-distance telephone; •fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs; •costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and other applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws; and •other expenses incurred by either OFS Services or us in connection with administering our business, including payments under theAdministration Agreement that will be based upon our allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of our board of directors) ofoverhead. We do not believe that our historical operating performance is necessarily indicative of our future results of operations that we expect to report in futureperiods. During the past three years, we completed several significant corporate transactions, including the BDC Conversion, Pre-IPO Transactions with SBICI LP, the Tamarix Acquisitions, and the 2012, 2013 and 2014 WM Credit Facility Amendments, as described in more detail under “—Recent Developmentsand Other Factors Affecting Comparability.” We are primarily focused on investments in middle-market companies in the United States, includinginvestments in senior secured and subordinated loans and, to a lesser extent, warrants and other minority equity securities, which differs to some degree fromour historical investment concentration, which was in senior secured loans to middle-market companies in the United States. Moreover, as a BDC and a RIC,we will also be subject to certain constraints on our operations, including, but not limited to, limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and the Code, to which wewere not previously subject. In addition, SBIC I LP is subject to regulation and oversight by the SBA. For the reasons described above, the results ofoperations described below may not necessarily be indicative of the results we expect to report in future periods. 63 Comparison of years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 Consolidated operating results for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 are as follows: 2013 2012 2011 (Amounts in thousands) Total investment income $17,070 $13,432 $1,772 Total expenses 11,352 9,337 2,635 Net investment income (loss) 5,718 4,095 (863)Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments 1,957 (1,214) (156)Total other income (loss) prior to becoming a business development company - 3,113 (1,168)Cumulative effect of accounting change - 222 - Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations $7,675 $6,216 $(2,187) Net income can vary substantially from period to period for various reasons, including the recognition of realized gains and losses and unrealizedappreciation and depreciation. As a result, annual comparisons of net income may not be meaningful.

The $3.6 million increase in total investment income was primarily due to a full year of interest income generated by OFS Capital WMduring 2013, as compared to nine months during 2012, as a result of our consolidation of OFS Capital WM’s results of operations effective April 1, 2012. Total investment income increased by approximately $11.7 million, or 658%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year endedDecember 31, 2011. The $11.7 million increase in total investment income was primarily due to the interest income generated by OFS Capital WM for theperiod April 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, as a result of our consolidation of OFS Capital WM’s statement of operations effective April 1, 2012. Expenses 2013 2012 2011 (Amounts in thousands) Interest expense $3,384 $4,163 $831 Amortization of deferred financing closing costs 965 472 - Management fees 3,435 2,245 1,365 Management fees - other related parties - 627 - Professional fees 1,639 935 151 Administrative fee 938 110 - General and administrative expenses 991 785 288 Total expenses $11,352 $9,337 $2,635 64 Total expenses increased by approximately $2.0 million, or 22%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared with the year ended December 31,2012. Interest expense decreased by approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012,primarily due to the decrease in the outstanding balance on the revolving lines of credit, which was partially offset by the higher interest expense we incurredfor the full twelve months of the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to only nine months of interest expense in the prior period as a result of ourconsolidation of OFS Capital WM statement of operations effective April 1, 2012. Amortization of deferred financing costs increased by $0.5 million for theyear ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, due to the termination of the Class B loan facility of OFS Capital WM inJanuary 2013 and the resulting write off of $0.3 million in unamortized deferred financing costs. Management fees expense increased by approximately $1.2million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, which was attributable to (1) an increase in management feeexpense we incurred to our investment advisor during the year ended December 31, 2013 in the amount of $0.9 million, and (2) reflection in our Statement ofOperations of a full year of management fee expense incurred by OFS Capital WM to its loan manager for 2013, compared to a reflection of only nine monthsof management fee expense for the period April 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012. We incurred management fees – other related parties of approximately$0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, which represented management fee expense incurred by SBIC I LP to its investment manager duringthe year ended December 31, 2012, while it was consolidated into our financial statements through July 27, 2012. We incurred an administrative fee expenseof approximately $0.9 million and $0.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2013 and the period November 8, 2012 to December 31, 2012,respectively. Professional fees and general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, due to our increased costs as a public company, professional fees incurred in connection with the TamarixAcquisitions, and our consolidation of OFS Capital WM’s statement of operations effective April 1, 2012. Total expense increased by approximately $6.7 million, or 254% for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31,2011. Interest expense increased by approximately $3.3 million for 2012 compared to 2011, primarily due to the interest expense incurred by OFS CapitalWM on its credit facility in the amount of approximately $4.2 million for the period April 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, as a result of ourconsolidation of OFS Capital WM’s statement of operations effective as of April 1, 2012, which was offset by $0.8 million of interest expense incurred in2011 in respect of the payable under the securities loan agreement. The payable under the securities loan agreement represented a secured borrowing appliedto the OFS Capital WM Transaction. Similar to the treatment of the interest income on loans receivable pledged to creditors, effective February 23, 2011, wederecognized the payable on our balance sheet and, accordingly, commencing February 23, 2011, we no longer recorded any interest expense in respect ofthe payable. Management fee expense increased by approximately $1.5 million in 2012 compared to 2011, which was primarily due to approximately $0.8million of management fee OFS Capital WM incurred from its loan manager for the period April 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, as well asapproximately $0.6 million of management fee Tamarix LP incurred to its investment manager for the period January 1, 2012 through July 27, 2012, at whichtime we deconsolidated Tamarix LP. Professional fees, general and administrative expenses, and amortization of deferred financing closing costs increased byan aggregate of approximately $1.8 million in 2012 compared to 2011, due to our increased cost as a public company as well as our consolidation of OFSCapital WM’s statement of operations from April 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012. Net Realized and Unrealized Gain (loss) on Investments 2013 2012 2011 (Amounts in thousands) Net realized gain (loss) on non-control/ non-affiliate investments $87 $(1,112) $- Realized gain from Tamarix Acquisitions 2,742 - - Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on non-control/non-affiliate investments 367 (61) (156)Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on affiliate investments 511 (41) - Net change in unrealized depreciation on control investment (1,750) - - Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments $1,957 $(1,214) $(156) For the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded total net realized and unrealized gain on investments in the amount of approximately $2.0 million.Net realized gain on sale of debt investments was approximately $0.1 million during the year. We also recorded a realized gain in the net amount ofapproximately $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 as a result of the Tamarix Acquisitions, which were accounted for as step acquisitions inaccordance with ASC Topic 805. Under ASC Topic 805, the first step we took in accounting for the Tamarix Acquisitions was to remeasure our equityinterests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP to the Tamarix Acquisitions date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings. Accordingly, werecorded a $2.7 million gain resulting from the remeasurement of our equity interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on the Tamarix Acquisition date. See Note4 of our December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements contained in Item 8 in this Form 10-K for further details. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded total net unrealized loss on investments in the amount of approximately $0.9 million, consisting ofapproximately $0.4 million of net unrealized gain on non-control/non-affiliate investments (impacted significantly by $2.3 million in unrealizeddepreciation on the investment in Strata Pathology Services, Inc.), $0.5 million of net unrealized gain on affiliate investments, and $1.7 million in unrealizeddepreciation on the control investment (Tangible Software, Inc.). For the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded total net realized and unrealized loss on investments in the amount of approximately $1.2 million,consisting primarily of approximately $1.1 million of net realized loss on non-control/non-affiliate investments, which represented net realized loss weincurred from sales of debt investments, and $0.1 million of combined net unrealized losses on non-control/non-affiliate and affiliate investments. 65 Other Income (Loss) Prior to Becoming a Business Development Company 2013 2012 2011 (Amounts in thousands) Loan loss recovery on loans receivable and loan receivable pledged to creditors $- $- $199 Income (loss) from equity interest in OFS Capital WM - 2,645 (638)Income from equity interest in Tamarix LP - 378 - Loss on sale of loans to OFS Capital WM - - (889)Gain on payable under securities loan agreement - - 71 Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests - 61 - Other income - 29 89 Total other income (loss) prior to becoming a business development company $- $3,113 $(1,168) We generated approximately $3.1 million of total other income prior to becoming a BDC for the year ended December 31, 2012, and incurredapproximately $1.2 million of total other loss prior to becoming a BDC for the year ended December 31, 2011. This increase of approximately $4.3 million,or 367%, in 2012 was primarily due to our recording of income from our equity interest in OFS Capital WM in the amount of $2.6 million for the periodJanuary 1, 2012 through March 31, 2012, prior to our consolidation of OFS Capital WM, as well as our recording of approximately $0.4 million of incomefrom our equity interest in SBIC I LP from July 28, 2012 through November 7, 2012 (commencing July 28, 2012, we adopted the equity method ofaccounting to record our investment in SBIC I LP upon our deconsolidation of SBIC I LP; commencing November 8, 2012, we adopted fair value accountingto record our equity investment in SBIC I LP, as a result of our election to become a BDC). During 2011, we recorded an approximately $0.6 million loss fromequity interest in OFS Capital WM, and an approximately $0.9 million loss on sale of loans to OFS Capital WM, offset by a loan loss recovery ofapproximately $0.2 million. Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change We recorded cumulative effect of accounting change in the net amount of approximately $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012,consisting of approximately $0.5 million of cumulative increase to our net income as a result of SBIC I LP’s conversion to an investment company effectiveMay 10, 2012 when it received the SBIC license, offset by approximately $0.3 million of cumulative decrease to our net income as a result of our BDCelection on November 7, 2012. Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash and Cash Equivalents As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $28.6 million and $8.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, $24.7million of the cash and cash equivalents was capital commitments funded into the SBIC Fund. During 2013, we had net cash provided by operating activitiesof $29.2 million, primarily due to net proceeds of $63.1 million we received from principal payments on our portfolio investments and proceeds of $9.4million from sales of portfolio investments, partially offset by $50.3 million in new investments. 66 Net cash used in investing activities was $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily attributable to the $8.1 million of cash we paidin connection with the Tamarix Acquisitions, partially offset by our consolidation of the $1.2 million in cash and cash equivalents held by SBIC I LP uponthe Tamarix Acquisitions. Net cash used in financing activities was $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, consisting of $10.7 million of cash dividends anddistributions, and $1.2 million of financing costs we paid to amend the OFS Capital WM Facility, offset by $9.7 million of net draw from the OFS CapitalWM Facility,. We intend to generate additional cash flows from our operations, distributions from equity investments, future borrowings, including borrowings byOFS Capital WM pursuant to the OFS Capital WM Facility as well as by SBIC I LP under the SBA debentures, and through any future offerings of securities.Our primary uses of funds are investments in debt and equity investments, interest payments on indebtedness, payment of other expenses, and cashdistributions to our shareholders. The OFS Capital WM Facility On September 28, 2010, OFS Capital WM entered into a $180.0 million secured revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo and Madison Capital, withthe Class A lenders (initially Wells Fargo) providing up to $135 million in Class A loans and the Class B lenders (initially Madison Capital) providing up to$45 million in Class B loans to OFS Capital WM. In January 2013, OFS Capital WM terminated its $45 million Class B credit facility. The OFS Capital WMFacility is secured by the Eligible Loans transferred to OFS Capital WM by OFS Capital on the date of the OFS Capital WM Transaction and any eligibleloan assets subsequently acquired by OFS Capital WM. Outstanding borrowings on the Class A credit facility are limited to the lesser of (a) the “maximum facility amount” of $135 million and (b) the“borrowing base.” Generally, during the reinvestment period, the borrowing base is equal to lesser of (i) the assigned value of the loan assets in OFS CapitalWM’s portfolio multiplied by the advance rate of 70% with respect to the Class A loans and (ii) the assigned value of the loan assets in OFS Capital WM’sportfolio reduced by $50.0 million. After the reinvestment period, the maximum facility amount will be limited to the then outstanding principal amount ofClass A loans. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had $109.0 million and $99.2 million, respectively, in indebtedness outstanding under the OFS Capital WMFacility. If at any time the amount of Class A loans outstanding exceeds the borrowing base, a borrowing base deficiency will exist. In that event, OFS CapitalWM will have three business days to eliminate the deficiency by, among other things, (a) depositing additional cash into the relevant collection account,(b) repaying Class A loans, or (c) pledging additional eligible loan assets. In the case of such a deficiency, we may determine it is in our best interests to makeadditional capital contributions to OFS Capital WM in the form of cash or additional eligible loan assets to protect the value of our equity investment in OFSCapital WM, and our additional contributions could be material. Under the OFS Capital WM Facility, the Loan Manager charges both a senior and subordinated management fee to OFS Capital WM for its services,each at 0.25% per annum of the assigned value of the underlying portfolio investments, plus an accrued fee that is deferred until after the end of theinvestment period of the portfolio investments. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred management fee expense ofapproximately $ 1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively, to the Loan Manager. SBA Debentures As a result of the Tamarix Acquisitions, SBIC I LP became our wholly-owned subsidiary effective December 4, 2013. SBIC I LP has an SBIC licensethat allows it to obtain leverage by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures, subject to issuance of a capital commitment by the SBA and customary procedures.These debentures are non-recourse to the Company, have interest payable semi-annually, and each debenture has a maturity date that is ten years followingissuance. The interest rate is fixed at the time of issuance at a market-driven spread over U.S. Treasury Notes with ten-year maturities. Under present SBIC regulations, the maximum amount of SBA-guaranteed debt that may be issued by a single SBIC licensee is $150.0 million. AnSBIC fund may borrow up to two times the amount of its regulatory capital, subject to customary regulatory requirements. As of December 4, 2013,immediately prior to the Tamarix Acquisitions, SBIC I LP, operating as a stand-alone SBIC fund, had leverage commitments of $67.3 million from the SBA.In connection with the Tamarix Acquisitions, we increased our commitments to SBIC I LP to $75.0 million, which became our wholly-owned subsidiary onDecember 4, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, we had funded $49.4 million of the $75.0 million commitment, and funded an additional $12.0 million inJanuary 2014. As of December 31, 2013, SBIC I LP had leverage commitments of $49.4 million from the SBA, and $26.0 million of outstanding SBA-guaranteed debentures, leaving incremental borrowing capacity of $23.4 million (increased to $35.4 million in January 2014), under present SBICregulations. As of December 31, 2013, we had $26.0 million of SBA guaranteed debentures payable through the SBIC Fund. 67 Other Liquidity Matters We expect to fund the growth of our investment portfolio utilizing the borrowings under the OFS Capital WM Facility, SBA debentures, future equityofferings, including our dividend reinvestment plan, and issuances of senior securities or future borrowings, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Wecannot assure shareholders that our plans to raise capital will be successful. In addition, we intend to distribute to our shareholders substantially all of ourtaxable income in order to satisfy the requirements applicable to RICs under Subchapter M of the Code. Consequently, we may not have the funds or theability to fund new investments or make additional investments in our portfolio companies to fund our unfunded commitments to portfolio companies. Theilliquidity of these portfolio investments may make it difficult for us to sell these investments when desired and, if we are required to sell these investments,we may realize significantly less than their recorded value. In addition, as a BDC, we generally will be required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by seniorsecurities (including SBIC I LP’s SBA-guaranteed debt), to total senior securities, which include all of our borrowings (excluding SBA-guaranteed debt) andany outstanding preferred stock, of at least 200%. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow. To fund growth in our investment portfolio in thefuture, we anticipate needing to raise additional capital from various sources, including the equity markets and the securitization or other debt-relatedmarkets, which may or may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. In November 2013, we received exemptive relief from the SEC, effective November26, 2013. The exemptive relief allows OFS Capital to exclude SBA guaranteed indebtedness from the definition of senior securities in our statutory 200%asset coverage ratio. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We may be a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to meet the financial needs of our portfoliocompanies. As of December 31, 2013, we had $4.8 million of total unfunded commitments to three portfolio companies. Unfunded commitments involve, tovarying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet and are not reflected on our balance sheet. In addition, as ofDecember 31, 2013, we had approximately $25.6 million of unfunded commitments to SBIC I LP, which was reduced to approximately $13.6 million inJanuary 2014. Contractual Obligations The following table shows our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2013: Payments due by period Less than 1 After 5 Contractual Obligations (1) Total year 1-3 years 3-5 years (2) years (2) (Amounts in thousands) OFS Capital WM Facility $108,955 $- $- $108,955 $- SBA Debentures 26,000 - - - 26,000 Total $134,955 $- $- $108,955 $26,000 (1) Excludes commitments to extend credit to our portfolio companies.(2) The OFS Capital WM Facility is scheduled to mature on December 31, 2018. The SBA debentures are scheduled to mature between September2022 and March 2024. We have entered into contracts with third parties under which we have material future commitments—the Investment Advisory Agreement, pursuant towhich OFS Advisor has agreed to serve as our investment adviser, and the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which OFS Services has agreed to furnish uswith the facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations. We have subscribed for $75.0 million of total capital commitments to SBIC I LP, of which $49.4 million was funded as of December 31, 2013. Wefunded an additional $12.0 million in January 2014, leaving our unfunded balance of $13.6 million as of March 14, 2014. 68 Commitments and Contingencies As of December 31, 2013, we had $4.8 million of total unfunded commitments to three portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1.5million of unfunded commitment to one portfolio company. Upon completion of the Tamarix Acquisition on December 4, 2013, we increased ourcommitments to SBIC I LP to $75.0 million. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had funded $49.4 million of the $75.0 million commitment, and itfunded an additional $12.0 million in January 2014. From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. Although the outcome of such litigation cannot bepredicted with any certainty, management is of the opinion, based on the advice of legal counsel, that final disposition of any litigation should not have amaterial adverse effect on our financial position. In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide generalindemnifications. Our maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against us that havenot occurred. We believe the risk of any material obligation under these indemnifications to be unlikely. Distributions We are taxed as a RIC under the Code. Generally, a RIC is entitled to deduct dividends it pays to its shareholders from its income to determine “taxableincome.” Taxable income includes our taxable interest, dividend and fee income, and taxable net capital gains. Taxable income generally differs from netincome for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes netunrealized appreciation or depreciation, as gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized. In addition, gains realized for financialreporting purposes may differ from gains included in taxable income as a result of our election to recognize gains using installment sale treatment, whichgenerally result in the deferment of gains for tax purposes until notes or other amounts, including amounts held in escrow, received as consideration from thesale of investments are collected in cash. Taxable income includes non-cash income, such as changes in accrued and reinvested interest and dividends, whichincludes contractual PIK interest, and the amortization of discounts and fees. Cash collections of income resulting from contractual PIK interest or theamortization of discounts and fees generally occur upon the repayment of the loans or debt securities that include such items. Non-cash taxable income isreduced by non-cash expenses, such as realized losses and depreciation, and amortization expense. Our board of directors maintains a variable dividend policy with the objective of distributing four quarterly distributions in an amount not less than 90-100% of our taxable quarterly income or potential annual income for a particular year. In addition, at the end of the year, we may also pay an additionalspecial dividend, or fifth dividend, such that we may distribute approximately all of our annual taxable income in the year it was earned, while maintainingthe option to spill over our excess taxable income. The following table summarizes our distributions declared and paid on all shares since inception to date: Amount Date Declared Record Date Payment Date Per Share Total Amount Fiscal 2014 January 21, 2014 January 31, 2014 February 14, 2014 $0.34 $3,274 Fiscal 2013 September 25, 2013 October 17, 2013 October 31, 2013 $0.34 $3,273 June 25, 2013 July 17, 2013 July 31, 2013 0.34 3,272 March 26, 2013 April 17, 2013 April 30, 2013 0.34 3,269 Fiscal 2012 November 26, 2012 (1) January 17, 2013 January 31, 2013 $0.17 $1,628 (1)Represents the dividend declared in the specified quarter, which, if prorated for the number of days remaining in the fourth quarter after our IPO inNovember 2012, would be $0.34 per share. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of thesedistributions from time to time. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, includingpossible loss of our status as a regulated investment company. We cannot assure shareholders that they will receive any distributions at a particular level. 69 Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally are treated first as a return of capital to the extent of theshareholder’s tax basis, and any remaining distributions is treated as a capital gain. The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions is madeannually as of the end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year; therefore, a determinationmade on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the tax attributes of our annual distributions to shareholders. For dividends and distributions paidduring the year ended December 31, 2013, out of our approximately $11.4 million of distributions, approximately 67% represented ordinary income and33% represented a return of capital. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on thesale of securities, and/or a return of paid-in-capital surplus, which is a nontaxable distribution) is mailed to our U.S. shareholders. To the extent our taxableearnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to ourshareholders. We maintain an “opt-out” dividend reinvestment plan for our common shareholders. As a result, if we declare a dividend, cash dividends areautomatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock unless the shareholder specifically “opts out” of the dividend reinvestment plan andchooses to receive cash dividends. Related Party Transactions Investment Advisory Agreement We have entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor and will pay OFS Advisor a management fee and incentive fee. Pursuant tothe Investment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor and subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors and in accordance with the 1940 Act,OFS Advisor provides investment advisory services to us. For providing these services, OFS Advisor receives a fee from us consisting of two components—abase management fee and an incentive fee. The Investment Advisor receives fees for providing services, consisting of two components—a base managementfee and an incentive fee. From the completion of the Company’s IPO through October 31, 2013, the base management fee was calculated at an annual rate of0.875% based on the average value of the Company’s total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowedamounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. Beginning on November 1,2013, the base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% based on the average value of the Company’s total assets (other than cash and cashequivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity) at the end of the two mostrecently completed calendar quarters, adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter. We have elected to exclude from the basemanagement fee calculation any base management fee that would be owed in respect of the intangible asset and goodwill resulting from our acquisitions ofthe remaining ownership interests in SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP on December 4, 2013. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The incentive fee has two parts. One part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for thequarter. “Pre-incentive fee net investment income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such ascommitment, origination and sourcing, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies but excluding feesfor providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, anyexpenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding theincentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as OID, debt instrumentswith PIK 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 gains, realized losses, unrealized capital appreciation or unrealized capitaldepreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that we may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where we incur a loss. For example, if wereceive pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate (as defined below) for a quarter, we will pay the applicable incentive fee even ifwe have incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and beforetaking into account any incentive fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a fixed “hurdlerate” of 2.0% per quarter. If market interest rates rise, we may be able to invest our funds in debt instruments that provide for a higher return, which wouldincrease our pre-incentive fee net investment income and make it easier for OFS Advisor to surpass the fixed hurdle rate and receive an incentive fee based onsuch net investment income. There is no accumulation of amounts on the hurdle rate from quarter to quarter and accordingly there is no clawback of amountspreviously paid if subsequent quarters are below the quarterly hurdle rate and there is no delay of payment if prior quarters are below the quarterly hurdle rate. 70 We pay OFS Advisor an 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 the pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate; •100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, thatexceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5% in any calendar quarter. We refer to this portion of our pre-incentive fee net investment income(which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5%) as the “catch-up” provision. The catch-up is meant to provide OFS Advisor with 20.0% ofthe pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in anycalendar quarter; and •20.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter. The second part of the incentive fee (the “Capital Gains Fee”) is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upontermination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and is calculated at the end of each applicable year by subtracting (a) the sumof our cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and our aggregate unrealized capital depreciation from (b) our cumulative aggregate realized capitalgains. If such amount is positive at the end of such year, then the Capital Gains Fee for such year is equal to 20.0% of such amount, less the aggregate amountof Capital Gains Fees paid in all prior years. If such amount is negative, then there is no Capital Gains Fee for such year. The cumulative aggregate realized capital gains are calculated as the sum of the differences, if positive, between (a) the net sales price of eachinvestment in our portfolio when sold and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. The cumulative aggregate realized capital losses are calculated as the sum of the amounts by which (a) the net sales price of each investment in ourportfolio when sold is less than (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. The aggregate unrealized capital depreciation is calculated as the sum of the differences, if negative, between (a) the valuation of each investment inour portfolio as of the applicable Capital Gains Fee calculation date and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. Unrealized capitalappreciation is accrued, but not paid until said appreciation is realized. The Company accrues the Capital Gains Fee if, on a cumulative basis, the sum of net realized capital gains and (losses) plus net unrealized appreciationand (depreciation) is positive. The Investment Advisor has elected to exclude from the Capital Gain Fee calculation any incentive fee that would be owed inrespect of the realized gain on step acquisition resulting from Tamarix Acquisitions. License Agreement We have entered into a license agreement with OFSAM under which OFSAM has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use thename “OFS.” Administration Agreement We have entered into an Administration Agreement, pursuant to which OFS Services furnishes us with office facilities, equipment, necessary softwarelicenses and subscriptions and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Under our Administration Agreement, OFS Servicesperforms, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial recordswhich we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our shareholders and all other reports and materials required to be filed with the SEC or any otherregulatory authority. Staffing Agreement OFS Advisor is an affiliate of OFSC, with which it has entered into a Staffing Agreement. Under this agreement OFSC will make available to OFSAdvisor experienced investment professionals and access to the senior investment personnel and other resources of OFSC and its affiliates. The StaffingAgreement should provide OFS Advisor with access to deal flow generated by the professionals of OFSC and its affiliates and commits the members of theAdvisor Investment Committee to serve in that capacity. OFS Advisor intends to capitalize on the significant deal origination and sourcing, creditunderwriting, due diligence, investment structuring, execution, portfolio management and monitoring experience of OFSC’s investment professionals. 71 OFSC also has entered into a staffing and corporate services agreement with OFS Services. Under this agreement, OFS Services will make available toOFSC experienced investment professionals and access to the administrative resources of OFS Services. Recent Developments In January 2014, the Company funded an additional $12.0 million to the SBIC I LP, leaving a remaining unfunded commitment of $13.6 million out of$75.0 million in total commitments. On January 17, 2014, the OFS Capital WM Facility was amended, pursuant to which the calculation of the borrowing base was adjusted and theminimum equity requirement was lowered from $65,000 to $50,000, resulting in additional liquidity for the Company. No financing costs were incurred inconnection with this amendment. On February 14, 2014, the Company paid a dividend of $0.34 per share to shareholders of record at January 31, 2014. In connection with the dividend,the Company made cash payments of $3,240 and issued 2,656 shares of common stock. On February 18, 2014 the SBA approved the name changes for Tamarix Capital Partners, L.P. and Tamarix Capital Partners, G.P, LLC to OFS SBIC I, LPand OFS SBIC I GP, respectively. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2013, 85% of our debt investments bore interest atfloating interest rates and 15% of our debt investments bore fixed interest rates. The interest rates on our debt investments bearing floating interest rates areusually based on a floating LIBOR, and the debt investments typically contain interest rate re-set provisions that adjust applicable interest rates to currentrates on a periodic basis. All of the debt investments bearing floating interest rates in our portfolio as of December 31, 2013 had interest rate floors, whichhave effectively converted those debt investments to fixed rate debt investments in the current interest rate environment. In addition, the OFS Capital WM Facility has a floating interest rate provision, and we expect that other credit facilities into which we may enter in thefuture may have floating interest rate provisions. Assuming that our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 were to remain constant, and that we took no actions to alter our existinginterest rate sensitivity, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates Interest Interest Net increase Basis point increase(1) income expense (decrease) (Amounts in thousands) 100 $189 $(1,105) $(916)200 1,947 (2,209) (262)300 3,942 (3,314) 628 400 5,937 (4,419) 1,518 500 7,931 (5,523) 2,408 (1)A decline in interest rates would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Although we believe that the foregoing analysis is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for potential changes in thecredit market, credit quality, size and composition of the assets in our portfolio, and other business developments, including borrowings under our creditfacility, that could affect net increase in net assets resulting from operations, or net income. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results wouldnot differ materially from the statement above. We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Changes in interest rates affect both our cost of funding and the valuationof our investment portfolio. Our risk management systems and procedures are designed to identify and analyze our risk, to set appropriate policies and limitsand to continually monitor these risks and limits by means of reliable administrative and information systems and other policies and programs. Ourinvestment portfolio and investment income may be affected by changes in various interest rates, including LIBOR and prime rates. 72 Item 8.

These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of theCompany’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require thatwe plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includesexamining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used andsignificant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation ofinvestments owned as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, by correspondence with custodian, loan agent or borrower. Our audit also involved performing suchother procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of OFS CapitalCorporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31,2013, the period November 8, 2012 through December 31, 2012, the period January 1, 2012 through November 7, 2012, and the year ended December 31,2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), OFS Capital Corporation andSubsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 1992. Our report dated March 17, 2014, expressed an opinion thatOFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries had not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteriaestablished in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 1992. /s/ McGladrey LLP Chicago, IllinoisMarch 17, 2014 74 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and StockholdersOFS Capital Corporation We have audited OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries’ (collectively, the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the TreadwayCommission in 1992. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment ofthe effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over FinancialReporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards requirethat we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in allmaterial respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weaknessexists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performingsuch other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded Tamarix Capital Partners, L.P. (“TamarixLP”) and Tamarix Capital G.P. LLC (“Tamarix GP”) from its evaluation of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, because theywere acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination in December 2013. We have also excluded Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP from our audit ofinternal control over financial reporting. Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP, subsequently renamed OFS SBIC I, LP and OFS SBIC I GP, LLC, respectively, arewholly owned subsidiaries whose combined total assets and net income represent approximately 28.39% and (14.04%), respectively, of the relatedconsolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013. A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financialreporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internalcontrol over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately andfairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary topermit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the companyare being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (c) provide reasonable assurance regardingprevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financialstatements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of anyevaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degreeof compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibilitythat a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The followingmaterial weakness has been identified and included in management's assessment. The Company completed the acquisitions of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP inDecember 2013 and the controls over complex non-routine transactions in conjunction with the acquisitions were not operating effectively to prevent amaterial misstatement. This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2013consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated March 17, 2014 on those consolidated financial statements.

See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 87 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 1. Organization OFS Capital Corporation (“OFS Capital”, the “Company”, or “we”) is a Delaware corporation formed on November 7, 2012 and is an externally managed,closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Company has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) underthe Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, for tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated as a regulatedinvestment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). From time to time, the term OFS Capital, the Company, or we may be used herein to refer to OFS Capital Corporation, individually, or OFS CapitalCorporation and/or its subsidiaries either collectively or individually, as well as, with respect to all periods prior to the initial public offering (“IPO”) date,OFS Capital, LLC. On November 7, 2012, the Company priced its IPO, selling 6,666,667 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $15 per share and raising $100million in gross proceeds. Immediately prior to the IPO, on November 7, 2012, OFS Capital, LLC converted from a limited liability company to a corporation,as a result of which the sole membership interest held in OFS Capital, LLC by Orchard First Source Asset Management, LLC (“OFSAM”) prior to theconversion was exchanged for 2,912,024 shares of common stock in the Company. On September 28, 2010, OFS Capital, LLC became the 100% equity owner of OFS Capital WM, LLC (“OFS Capital WM”). On September 29, 2011, OFSCapital, LLC became the primary beneficiary in Tamarix Capital Partners, LP (“Tamarix LP”), a variable interest entity (“VIE”) under the applicableprovisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810, “Consolidation” (ASC Topic 810). OnMay 10, 2012, upon Tamarix LP’s receipt of a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) license, OFS Capital, LLC became an approximately 68%limited partner in Tamarix LP. On December 4, 2013, the Company acquired the remaining limited partnership interests in Tamarix LP (“Tamarix LPAcquisition”), as well as the remaining membership interests in Tamarix Capital G.P. LLC (“Tamarix GP”), the general partner of Tamarix LP that holds 1%limited partnership interest in Tamarix LP (“Tamarix GP Acquisition”) (Tamarix LP Acquisition and Tamarix GP Acquisition are collectively referred to as“Tamarix Acquisitions”). As a result of Tamarix Acquisitions, Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP became wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company effectiveDecember 4, 2013 (see Note 4 for more details). The Company’s investment strategy is to invest primarily in senior secured debt investments to middle market companies and, to a lesser extent, juniorcapital, including mezzanine debt and preferred and common equity. The Company has entered into an investment advisory and management agreementwith OFS Capital Management, LLC (“OFS Capital Management”, or the “Investment Advisor”), under which the Investment Advisor manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company (see Note 5 for more detail). Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Election to become a Business Development Company: The results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 reflect the Company’s results as aBDC under the 1940 Act, whereas the results of operations for 2012 are divided into two periods. The period from January 1, 2012 through November 7,2012, reflects the Company’s results prior to operating as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The period from November 8, 2012 through December 31, 2012, reflectsthe Company’s results as a BDC under the 1940 Act. Accounting principles used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements beginningNovember 8, 2012 are different from those of prior periods and, therefore, the financial position and results of operations for those periods are not directlycomparable. The primary difference in accounting principles relates to the carrying value of debt and equity investments. On November 7, 2012, theCompany recorded a cumulative effect of accounting change of $348 as a result of its election to become a BDC – see corresponding section below forfurther discussion. Cumulative Effect of Business Development Company Election Effect of recording equity investment in Tamarix LP at fair value $(348) 88 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Basis of presentation: The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accountingprinciples in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Article 6 or 10 of Regulation S-X. Inthe opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustmentsexcept: (1) OFS Capital’s accounting treatment of Tamarix Acquisitions, as well as its consolidation of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP, effective December 4,2013 (see Note 4); (2) OFS Capital’s consolidation of the financial statements of OFS Capital WM effective March 30, 2012 (see Note 3); (3) the cumulativeeffect of accounting change to convert from cost to fair value accounting of Tamarix LP’s portfolio investments effective May 10, 2012 as a result of TamarixLP’s receipt of the SBIC license and conversion to an investment company (see “Other cumulative effect of accounting change prior to Tamarix LP becomingan investment company” section below); (4) deconsolidation of the financial statements of Tamarix LP effective July 27, 2012 (see Note 4); (5) cumulativeeffect of accounting change to convert to a BDC effective November 7, 2012 (see Election to become a Business Development Company above), and (6) thesale accounting treatment of the OFS Capital WM Transaction effective February 23, 2011 (see Note 3), which are, in the opinion of management, necessaryto fairly state the operating results for the respective periods. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amountshave been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Principles of consolidation: The Company’s December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its whollyowned subsidiaries, OFS Capital WM, OFS Funding, LLC, Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP. The Company consolidates an affiliated subsidiary if it owns morethan 50 percent of the subsidiary’s equity and holds the controlling financial interest in such subsidiary. The Company also consolidates a VIE if it is theprimary beneficiary in the VIE. Effective March 30, 2012, the Company consolidated the financial statements of OFS Capital WM into its own (see Note 3).Effective July 27, 2012, the Company deconsolidated the financial statements of Tamarix LP from its own (see Note 4). Effective December 4, 2013, theCompany consolidated the financial statements of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP into its own (see Note 4). Other cumulative effect of accounting change prior to Tamarix LP becoming an investment company: Equity contributions made by potential investorsin Tamarix LP prior to issuance of the SBIC license on May 10, 2012 were contingent upon receipt of the SBIC license, and were fully refundable in theevent that Tamarix LP failed to obtain such license. As a result, prior to May 10, 2012, Tamarix LP was not deemed to be an investment company andaccordingly, followed the same accounting principles as its primary beneficiary, OFS Capital, to account for its loans receivable at cost and its equityinterests under the cost method of accounting on the consolidated financial statements of OFS Capital. On May 10, 2012, upon receipt of the SBIC license,Tamarix LP was deemed to be an investment company under Accounting Standards Codification 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies” (“ASCTopic 946”), and began reporting its investment assets at fair value. Accordingly, effective May 10, 2012, Tamarix LP changed its accounting principle fromcost to fair value for measuring its portfolio investments, and recorded a cumulative effect of this accounting change in the amount of $570 to reflect thedifference between the fair value and cost basis of its portfolio investments at May 10, 2012. The cumulative effect of the accounting change at May 10, 2012 reflects the effect of Tamarix LP’s conversion to an investment company as follows: Cumulative Effect of Conversion to an Investment Company Effect of recording loans at fair value $211 Effect of recording equity investments at fair value 140 Elimination of allowance for loan losses 219 $570 Fair value of financial instruments: The Company applies fair value to substantially all of its financial instruments in accordance with AccountingStandards Codification Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes aframework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Company has categorizedits financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three level fair value hierarchy. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant that holds the financial instrument rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore,when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions reflect those that management believes market participants would use inpricing the financial instrument at the measurement date. 89 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, thetype of product, whether the product is new, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, and the current marketconditions. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fairvalue requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for financial instrumentsclassified as Level 3 (i.e., those instruments valued using non-observable inputs). Changes to the valuation policy are reviewed by management and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) to confirm that the changes are justified.As markets change, new products develop and the pricing for products becomes more or less transparent, the Company will continue to refine its valuationmethodologies. See Note 7 for more detailed disclosures of the Company’s fair value measurements of its financial instruments. Use of estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates andassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidatedfinancial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reporting segments: In accordance with segment guidance set by Accounting Standards Codification 280, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC Topic 280”), theCompany has determined that it has a single reporting segment and operating unit structure. Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments not held for resale with original maturities at the time ofacquisition of three months or less. The Company places its cash in financial institutions and at times, such balances may be in excess of the Federal DepositInsurance Corporation insurance limits. Restricted cash and cash equivalents: Restricted cash and cash equivalents represent amounts maintained in the Unfunded Exposure Account of OFSCapital WM as defined by the Loan Sale Agreement and other applicable transaction documents and are subject to the lien of the trustee for the benefit of thesecured parties of OFS Capital WM. Proceeds in the Unfunded Exposure Account, along with advances under the OFS Capital WM Credit Facility (see Note10), are utilized to fund an eligible loan owned by OFS Capital WM that has an unfunded revolving commitment. Revenue recognition: Investments and related investment income: Investments are recorded at fair value. The Company’s Board determines the fair value of its portfolioinvestments. The determination of the fair value of the portfolio investments includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Interestincome is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual interest terms of debt investments. The Company accrues interest incomeuntil certain events take place, which may place a loan into a non-accrual status. In addition, the Company may generate revenue in the form of commitment,origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. Loan origination fees, original issuediscount (“OID”), market discount or premium, and loan amendment fees (collectively, “net loan origination fee income”) are capitalized, and the Companyaccretes or amortizes such amounts over the life of the loan as interest income. When the Company receives a loan principal payment, the OID related to thepaid principal is accelerated and recognized in interest income. All other income is recorded into income when earned. Further, in connection with theCompany’s debt investments, the Company will sometimes receive warrants or similar no cost equity-related securities (“Warrants”). The Companydetermines the cost basis of Warrants based upon their respective fair values on the date of receipt in proportion to the total fair value of the debt andWarrants received. Any resulting difference between the face amount of the debt and its recorded fair value resulting from the assignment of value to theWarrants is treated as OID, and accreted into interest income over the life of the debt security. Dividend income is recorded at the time dividends are declaredor at the point an obligation exists for the portfolio company to make a distribution. Distribution of earnings from portfolio companies are evaluated todetermine if the distribution is income or return of capital. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, unamortized discounts and origination fees on debt investments amounted to $3,098 and $2,854, respectively. For theyear ended December 31, 2013, the period from November 8, 2012 to December 31, 2012, the period from January 1, 2012 to November 7, 2012, and the yearended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized net loan origination fee income of $1,481, $185, $861 and $170, respectively. 90 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) For investments with contractual payment-in-kind interest (“PIK”), which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance thatgenerally becomes due at maturity (or at some other stipulated date), the Company will not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicatesthat the PIK interest is not collectible. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the period from November 8, 2012 to December 31, 2012, the period fromJanuary 1, 2012 to November 7, 2012, and the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized PIK interest in the amount of $37, $0, $193 and$111, respectively. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the netproceeds from the disposition and the cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. The Company reportschanges in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) oninvestments in the consolidated statement of operations. Non-accrual loans: Loans on which the accrual of interest income has been discontinued are designated as non-accrual loans, and non-accrual loans arefurther designated to be accounted for under either a non-accrual cash method or a non-accrual cost recovery method. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual when a loan either: (i) is delinquent for 90 days or more on principal or interest based on contractual terms of the loan (unless well secured and in theprocess of collection), or (ii) in the opinion of the Company’s management, there is reasonable doubt about the collectability. When loans are placed on non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Interest payments received on non-accrualloans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Interest accruals are resumed on non-accrual loans onlywhen they are brought current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectibleas to all principal and interest. There was one non-accrual loan with a fair value of $1,051 at December 31, 2013. There were no non-accrual loans atDecember 31, 2012. Allowances for loan losses: Prior to the Company’s election to become a BDC, the allowance for loan losses represented management’s estimate of probablelosses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. When determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, the following factors wereconsidered: historical internal experience and current industry conditions, economic conditions and trends, credit quality trends and other factors deemedrelevant. Additions to the allowance were charged to current period earnings through the provision for loan losses. Periodically, management might havedetermined that it was appropriate to charge-off a portion of an existing loan. Upon the resolution of a loan that had remaining outstanding amounts that hadbeen reserved for and were determined to be uncollectible, such amounts were charged off directly against the allowance for loan losses. To the extent that anamount was not reserved for, then this amount was charged off through the provision for loan losses on the consolidated statement of operations. Income taxes: The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and operates in a manner so as to qualify for the taxtreatment applicable to RICs. In order to qualify as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to meet certain source of income and assetdiversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for eachyear. The Company has made, and intends to continue to make, the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company fromU.S. federal income taxes with respect to all income distributed to its stockholders. Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to retain taxable income in excess of current year dividenddistributions into the next tax year in an amount less than what would trigger payments of federal income tax under subchapter M of the Code. The Companywould then pay a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines its estimated current year annual taxable incomemay exceed estimated current year dividend distributions, the Company accrues excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned.At December 31, 2013, no U.S. federal excise tax was accrued. At December 31, 2012, the Company accrued $63 of U.S. federal excise tax, which was paid inMarch 2013. The Company accounts for income taxes in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC Topic 740”). ASC Topic 740provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in financial statements. ASC Topic 740 requiresthe evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not”to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a taxexpense in the current year. It is the Company’s policy to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in income tax expense.There were no material uncertain income tax positions at December 31, 2013 and 2012. The current and prior three tax years remain subject to examinationby U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. 91 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Prior to the Company’s election to become a BDC, the Company, as a limited liability company, did not record a provision for federal income taxes ordeferred tax benefits because its income was taxable to its members. Therefore, no federal or state income tax provision had been recorded for the period fromJanuary 1, 2012 to November 7, 2012, and the year ended December 31, 2011. Dividends and distributions: Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the declaration date. The timing of dividends anddistributions as well as the amount to be paid out as a dividend or distribution is determined by the Board each quarter and is generally based upon theearnings estimated by management. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain suchcapital gains for investment. Dividends paid in excess of net investment income and realized gains are considered returns of capital to shareholders. The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of any distributions the Company declares in cash on behalfof its stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Board authorizes and the Company declares a cash distribution, thenstockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s commonstock, rather than receiving the cash dividend or distribution. The Company may use newly issued shares under the guidelines of the DRIP, or the Company may purchase shares in the open market in connection with itsobligations under the plan. Deferred offering costs: The Company defers costs related to its public offerings until completion of the offerings. These costs include professional fees,registration costs, printing, and other miscellaneous offering costs. Deferred offering costs are charged against the proceeds from equity offerings whenreceived. The Company incurred total deferred offering costs of $5,795 related to its IPO, which was charged against gross proceeds from the IPO onNovember 7, 2012. Deferred financing closing costs: Deferred financing costs represent fees and other direct incremental costs incurred in connection with the Company’sborrowings. These amounts are amortized over the estimated average life of the borrowings. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, unamortizeddeferred financing costs recorded by the Company amounted to $3,043 and $2,839, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the period fromNovember 8, 2012 to December 31, 2012, and the period from April 1, 2012 to November 7, 2012, the Company recorded amortization expense of $965,$127 and $345, respectively, on its deferred financing costs. Equity interests received prior to the Company’s election to become a BDC: In connection with certain lending arrangements, the Company receivedwarrants to purchase shares of stock from the borrowers. Because the warrant agreements typically contained net exercise or “cashless” exercise provisions,the warrants qualified as derivative instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC Topic 815”). Such warrantswere considered loan fees and are recorded as unearned loan income on the grant date. The unearned income was recognized as interest income over thecontractual life of the related loan in accordance with the Company’s income recognition policy. As such warrants held were deemed to be derivative, theywere periodically measured at fair value. Any adjustment to fair value was recorded through earnings as net unrealized gain or loss on warrants. For the yearended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized an unrealized loss on warrants in the amounts of $156, respectively. For the period November 8, 2012through December 31, 2012, and the period January 1, 2012 through November 7, 2012, the Company did not recognize any unrealized gain or loss onwarrants. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s 100% share of the net income or loss of OFS CapitalWM was included in “Income from equity interest in OFS Capital WM” in the consolidated statements of operations. Commencing with the execution of theWM 2012 Loan Amendment, effective April 1, 2012, OFS Capital consolidated the statement of operations of OFS Capital WM into its own (see Note 3). In September and November 2011, in connection with its loan originations, Tamarix LP received a 14.9% LLC membership interest in one borrower and a19.8% preferred stock ownership interest in another borrower which were valued at $500 and $1,955, respectively, at the date of the respective loanorigination. The Company applied the cost method of accounting to these equity interests until May 10, 2012, when Tamarix LP became an investmentcompany and adopted fair value accounting on its portfolio investments. 92 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Effective July 27, 2012, the Company deconsolidated the financial statements of Tamarix LP from its own, and adopted the equity method of accounting toaccount for its investment in Tamarix LP (see Note 4) through November 7, 2012. Accordingly, commencing July 27, 2012 through November 7, 2012, theCompany’s share of the net income or loss of Tamarix LP was included in “Income from equity interest in Tamarix LP” in the consolidated statement ofoperations under the equity method of accounting. Commencing November 8, 2012, upon the Company’s election to become a BDC, through December 4,2013, the date of Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company accounted for its equity investment in Tamarix LP at fair value. Effective December 4, 2013, as a resultof Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company consolidated Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP into its own financial statements. Goodwill and intangible asset: On December 4, 2013, in connection with Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company recorded goodwill in the amount of $1,077(see Note 4), which will be tested for impairment in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other” (“ASCTopic 350”). Also, on December 4, 2013, in connection with Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company recorded an intangible asset attributable to the SBIC license Tamarix LPholds in the amount of $2,500. The Company will amortize this intangible asset over its estimated useful life, which was determined to be approximately 13years at December 31, 2013. The following table reflects the Company's estimated annual amortization expense of its intangible asset for the next five years at December 31, 2013: For year ended December 31, 2014 $195,313 For year ended December 31, 2015 195,313 For year ended December 31, 2016 195,313 For year ended December 31, 2017 195,313 For year ended December 31, 2018 195,313 Interest expense: Interest expense is recognized on the accrual basis. Concentration of credit risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash depositsat financial institutions. At various times during the year, the Company may exceed the federally insured limits. To mitigate this risk, the Company placescash deposits only with high credit quality institutions. Management believes the risk of loss is minimal. Recent accounting pronouncements: In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-08, Financial Services – Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments tothe Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements (ASU 2013-08), which amends the criteria that define an investment company, clarifies themeasurement guidance and requires new disclosures for investment companies. Under ASU 2013-08, an entity already regulated under the 1940 Act isautomatically an investment company under the new GAAP definition. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or afterDecember 15, 2013. The Company does not expect ASU 2013-08 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or disclosures. Note 3. OFS Capital WM OFS Capital WM Transaction On September 28, 2010, OFS Capital entered into a Loan Sale Agreement with OFS Capital WM, pursuant to which OFS Capital transferred eligible loans orits 100% participating interest in certain loans as defined by the agreement (“Eligible Loans”) with $96,906 in principal to OFS Capital WM in exchange forcash of $36,255 and a 100% ownership interest in OFS Capital WM (“OFS Capital WM Transaction”). The OFS Capital WM Transaction was a true sale for legal purposes. Under the Loan Sale Agreement and other applicable transaction documents between theCompany and OFS Capital WM (collectively, the “Loan Documents”), dated September 28, 2010, OFS Capital is not permitted to revoke the sale. WellsFargo Delaware Trust Company, N.A., acts as the trustee for the benefit of the lenders under the credit facility that forms part of the Loan Documents. TheEligible Loans are pledged by OFS Capital WM to the trustee for the benefit of the lenders. OFS Capital is not entitled or obligated to repurchase or redeemthe Eligible Loans, other than a customary obligation to repurchase loans for breach of representations and warranties with respect to the eligibility of suchloans. In addition, OFS Capital had the right, at its option, to purchase loans then owned by OFS Capital WM, at fair value, subject to a 20% purchase andsubstitution limit as prescribed in the Loan Documents (the “Call Right”). OFS Capital accounted for the OFS Capital WM Transaction as a secured borrowing in accordance with the relevant provisions under ASC Topic 860 -Transfers and Servicing. Accordingly, on September 28, 2010, OFS Capital reclassified the loans it transferred to OFS Capital WM to loans receivablepledged to creditors on its consolidated balance sheet. In addition, on September 28, 2010, in consideration for the cash and 100% equity interest in OFSCapital WM, the Company recorded a corresponding payable under securities loan agreement. 93 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 3. OFS Capital WM (Continued) Effective February 23, 2011, the Company amended the Loan Documents pursuant to which the Call Right and certain other rights of OFS Capital wereremoved. This amendment was entered into to ensure that the original intent of the parties to treat the OFS Capital WM Transaction as a true sale for bothlegal and accounting purposes was satisfied and to eliminate any provision that might be interpreted as contrary to that intent. For the period January 1, 2011through February 23, 2011, OFS Capital recognized interest income on loans pledged to creditors in the amount of $831 and recorded interest expense of$831 on the payable under securities loan agreement for the same period. On February 23, 2011, as a result of the amendment to the Loan Documents, underthe sale accounting treatment, the Company derecognized the loans pledged to creditors in the carrying value of $75,621 (net of loan loss allowance of$1,151 and net deferred revenue of $283), interest receivable pledged to creditors in the amount of $213, and the payable under securities agreement in theamount of $74,945. The difference between the receivables pledged to creditors and payable under securities agreement, was recognized as a loss from thesale in the amount of $889. Consolidation of OFS Capital WM OFS Capital WM is a wholly owned subsidiary of OFS Capital formed in August 2010 with the limited purpose of holding, acquiring, managing andfinancing senior secured loan investments to middle-market companies in the United States. Prior to March 30, 2012, the Company determined that OFSCapital WM was a VIE of OFS Capital under the applicable provisions of ASC Topic 810. OFS Capital, as the owner of 100% of the equity of OFS CapitalWM, has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits, either of which could be significant to the VIE. However, prior to March 30, 2012,despite its 100% equity interest in OFS Capital WM, OFS Capital was not the primary beneficiary of OFS Capital WM as OFS Capital lacked the power,through voting interests or similar rights, to direct the activities of OFS Capital WM that most significantly impact its economic performance. The Companyhad concluded that MCF Capital Management, LLC (the “Loan Manager”) was the primary beneficiary of OFS Capital WM, because (1) under the terms ofthe loan facility of OFS Capital WM, the Loan Manager had the sole authority to service, administer and exercise rights and remedies in respect of the assetsin OFS Capital WM’s portfolio; (2) the Loan Manager had the sole authority to determine whether to cause assets to be sold or acquired by OFS Capital WM,subject to certain limited circumstances where the Company had consent rights, as administrative manager of OFS Capital WM; (3) OFS Capital, as theadministrative manager of OFS Capital WM, carried out duties of OFS Capital WM primarily limited to administrative matters, and (4) for its service, theLoan Manager receives a fee. The Company had determined the Loan Manager’s right to receive a loan management fee from OFS Capital WM, the interestof its related party in the class B loans of OFS Capital WM, and the implicit financial responsibility of the Loan Manager to ensure the VIE operates asdesigned were significant to OFS Capital WM. Since the Loan Manager was the primary beneficiary of OFS Capital WM, prior to March 30, 2012, theCompany did not consolidate the financial statements of OFS Capital WM but instead accounted for its ownership interest under the equity method ofaccounting. Through March 30, 2012, OFS Capital WM’s loan portfolio was essentially fully funded, which makes future management activities a critical component toensure satisfactory credit quality and profitability of OFS Capital WM’s loan portfolio. Effective March 30, 2012, OFS Capital entered into an agreementwith OFS Capital WM and the Loan Manager to amend the credit facility of OFS Capital WM (WM 2012 Loan Amendment), as a result of which, (1) insteadof the Loan Manager having the sole authority to determine actions on any proposed amendment, modification, restructuring, and waiver of loans, the LoanManager is required to consult with OFS Capital before taking any such actions with a borrower; (2) instead of the Loan Manager having the sole authority tocall or waive any default with respect to any loan, the Loan Manager is required to consult with OFS Capital before taking any such actions with a borrower,and (3) instead of the Loan Manager having the sole authority to vote to accelerate the maturity of any loan, the Loan Manager is required to consult withOFS Capital before taking any such actions with a borrower. If OFS Capital indicates in writing that it is dissatisfied with any actions in respect of theforegoing ultimately taken by the Loan Manager, pursuant to the WM 2012 Loan Amendment, the Loan Manager may pursue the course of action which ithas recommended; however, the Loan Manager will also be obligated to promptly engage a third party broker/dealer to sell the loan in question, with OFSCapital possessing the sole right to negotiate and approve the terms of any such sale transaction (including price), as well as the sole right to terminate anyloan sale discussions and to block any prospective loan sale. In consideration for the rights received as a result of the WM 2012 Loan Amendment, OFSCapital agreed to give up a right of first refusal that it possessed with respect to future transactions substantially similar to the OFS Capital WM Transactionthat the Loan Manager and/or its affiliates may seek to conduct with third parties. The WM 2012 Loan Amendment granted OFS Capital significant participating rights. Additionally, owing to: (1) the significant repayment sinceSeptember 28, 2010 of the preponderant portion of the loans transferred to OFS Capital WM on that date and over which OFS Capital did not have the rightto consent to, or withhold consent from, loan purchase or sale recommendations made by the Loan Manager, as well as (2) the nearly full ramping andfunding of OFS Capital WM’s loan portfolio as of March 2012, OFS Capital now has the right to consent to, or withhold consent from, purchase or salerecommendations made by the Loan Manager with respect to a very high percentage of loans in the OFS Capital WM loan portfolio. Therefore, effectiveMarch 30, 2012, OFS Capital possessed the power to direct the activities of OFS Capital WM that most significantly impact OFS Capital WM’s economicperformance. This resulted in OFS Capital’s succeeding to the controlling financial interest in OFS Capital WM, OFS Capital WM’s discontinuation as a VIE,and OFS Capital’s consolidation of OFS Capital WM, effective March 30, 2012. 94 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 3.

Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP Tamarix LP is a Delaware limited partnership formed in January 2010, which commenced operations in September 2011. Tamarix LP applied for an SBIClicense from the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) in order to become an SBIC regulated fund under the Small Business Investment Company Act of1958 (the “SBIC Act”). In September and November 2011, OFS Capital entered into loan agreements with Tamarix LP, pursuant to which OFS Capital lent anaggregate of $16,750 to Tamarix LP. Tamarix LP utilized these funds to originate loans with an aggregate face value of $14,750 and acquire equity interestsin its borrowers for $2,455. OFS Capital’s loans to Tamarix LP were fully secured by pledges of Tamarix LP’s loans and equity interests in its borrowers. On May 10, 2012, Tamarix LP received the SBIC license. From September 29, 2011 through May 10, 2012, Tamarix LP was deemed to be a VIE of OFSCapital under ASC Topic 810 as the equity interests in Tamarix LP had not been called and, accordingly, it would not be possible for Tamarix LP to financeits activities without additional subordinated financial support. OFS Capital’s debt interest was considered the sole variable interest in Tamarix LP, and OFSCapital was deemed to be the primary beneficiary in Tamarix LP for the period from September 29, 2011 to May 10, 2012. The investment and exit decisions,day-to-day investment activities and underlying assets of Tamarix LP were managed by Tamarix GP, which was controlled by three individuals (“TamarixIndividuals”) who were employed by Orchard First Source Capital, Inc. (“OFSC”), an affiliate of OFS Capital, and each of whom, together with Glenn Pittson,OFS Capital’s Chief Executive Officer, were approved by the SBA to manage Tamarix LP. For accounting purposes, however, as secured lender to TamarixLP, as well as employer (through affiliated entity) of the three individuals, OFS Capital ultimately was deemed under the applicable accounting literature tohave the power to direct the activities of Tamarix LP that most significantly impacted Tamarix LP’s economic performance. Further, OFS Capital had theobligation as a secured lender to absorb losses of Tamarix LP that could potentially be significant to Tamarix LP. Since, upon its licensure as an SBIC fund on May 10, 2012, (1) Tamarix LP had sufficient equity at risk to finance its future activities without additionalsubordinated financial support, and (2) there continued to be a controlling financial interest holder in Tamarix LP, effective May 10, 2012, Tamarix LP wasno longer a VIE but was instead a limited partnership guided under ASC Topic 810. Subsequent to May 10, 2012, OFS Capital was deemed under theapplicable accounting literature to continue to hold the controlling financial interest in Tamarix LP since OFS Capital continued to have the power to directthe activities of Tamarix LP that most significantly impact Tamarix LP’s economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially besignificant to Tamarix LP. In addition, as the then 68.4% limited partner in Tamarix LP, OFS Capital also possessed the right to receive benefits from TamarixLP that could potentially be significant to Tamarix LP. Therefore, subsequent to May 10, 2012, and through July 27, 2012 as described below, OFS Capitalcontinued to consolidate the financial statements of Tamarix LP into its own. In June 2012 and October 2013, Tamarix LP received SBA leverage commitments in the amount of $30,110 and $37,185, respectively, which are issuable bythe SBA in the form of debenture securities and which terminate in September 2016 and September 2018, respectively. The SBA may limit the amount thatmay be drawn each year under this commitment, and each issuance of leverage is conditioned on Tamarix LP’s full compliance, as determined by the SBA,with the terms and conditions set forth under the SBIC Act. On July 27, 2012, Tamarix LP made a $14,000 leverage draw. Subsequent to July 27, 2012 andthrough December 4, 2013, Tamarix LP made a total of $12,000 in additional leverage draws. The objective of Tamarix LP is to generate attractive returns for investors by making investments in United States-based, middle market companies. Theseinvestments typically will be comprised of debt-related securities, potentially with warrant coverage. The term of Tamarix LP runs through the later of March2022 or two years after all of Tamarix LP’s Outstanding Leverage (as defined in the limited partnership agreement of Tamarix LP) has matured. Pursuant tothe limited partnership agreement of Tamarix LP and the SBIC Act, a limited partner may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, subdivide for resale or otherwisedispose of all or any part of its interest in Tamarix LP without the prior written consent of Tamarix GP, the granting or denying of which consent will be inTamarix GP’s sole and absolute discretion. In addition, a limited partner may not transfer any interest of ten percent or more in the capital of Tamarix LPwithout the prior approval of the SBA. Deconsolidation of Tamarix LP On July 27, 2012, utilizing the $14,000 in leverage draw from the SBA, Tamarix LP repaid its loans due to OFS Capital, including accrued interest, in thetotal amount of approximately $16,577. Also effective July 27, 2012, Tamarix Individuals resigned as employees from the affiliated entity of OFS Capital. 98 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 4. Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP (Continued) Due to the resignation of Tamarix Individuals, effective July 27, 2012, OFS Capital was no longer deemed to have the power to direct the activities ofTamarix LP that most significantly impact Tamarix LP’s economic performance. Effective July 27, 2012, Tamarix GP, as the general partner of Tamarix LPcontrolled by Tamarix Individuals, obtained the power from OFS Capital to direct the activities of Tamarix LP that most significantly impact Tamarix LP’seconomic performance. In addition, because of Tamarix LP’s payoff of its loans due to OFS Capital, OFS Capital no longer had the obligation to absorblosses from Tamarix LP that could be potentially significant to Tamarix LP as it had prior to July 27, 2012 as a secured lender to Tamarix LP. As a result,effective July 27, 2012, OFS Capital was no longer deemed to hold the controlling interest in Tamarix LP. Since OFS Capital no longer held the controlling interest in Tamarix LP, effective July 27, 2012, OFS Capital deconsolidated Tamarix LP’s financialstatements from its own and adopted the equity method of accounting to record its equity investment in Tamarix LP. Accordingly, the Company’sDecember 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheet does not include the accounts of Tamarix LP, and the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for theyear ended December 31, 2012 reflects the statements of operations from Tamarix LP only through July 27, 2012. From November 8, 2012, as a result of theCompany’s election to become a BDC, through Tamarix Acquisitions date on December 4, 2013, the Company accounted for its equity investment inTamarix LP at fair value. Tamarix Acquisitions On December 4, 2013, the Company acquired all of the limited partnership interests in Tamarix LP, as well as all of the membership interest in Tamarix GP,that it did not already own which resulted in Tamarix LP becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company paid cash in the total amountof $8,110 for Tamarix Acquisitions, consisting of $7,951 for Tamarix LP Acquisition and $159 for Tamarix GP Acquisition. In connection with TamarixAcquisitions, on December 5, 2013, the Tamarix Individuals were reemployed by OFSC, and Tamarix Associates, LLC (“Tamarix Associates”) was terminatedas the investment manager of Tamarix LP. Upon the closing of Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company increased its capital commitment to Tamarix LP, bothdirectly and through Tamarix GP, to $75,000. In conjunction with Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company incurred acquisition costs in the aggregate amount of$368, which was expensed in 2013 and included in professional fees on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Tamarix Acquisitions were accounted for as a step acquisition in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations”(“ASC Topic 805”). Under ASC Topic 805, a step acquisition is an acquisition in which an acquirer obtains control of an acquiree in which it held an equityinterest immediately before the acquisition date. From July 27, 2012 through December 4, 2013, OFS Capital did not hold a controlling interest in TamarixLP due to the lack of power to direct the activities of Tamarix LP that most significantly impact Tamarix LP’s economic performance. Instead, from July 27,2012 through December 4, 2013, Tamarix GP, as the general partner of Tamarix LP controlled by the Tamarix Individuals, held the controlling interest inTamarix LP. Also, from July 27, 2012 through December 4, 2013, OFS Capital did not hold a controlling interest in Tamarix GP, as the Tamarix Individuals,who collectively owned 66.65% membership interests in Tamarix GP, were deemed to hold the controlling interest in Tamarix GP. Commencing December 4,2013, upon the completion of Tamarix Acquisitions, OFS Capital owns 100% ownership interests in both Tamarix LP (99% directly and 1% indirectlythrough its 100% ownership interest in Tamarix GP) and Tamarix GP, and now holds the controlling interests in both entities. Accordingly, TamarixAcquisitions falls within the scope of ASC Topic 805 and are deemed as acquisitions achieved in stages, or step acquisitions. Under step acquisition accounting, the first step for OFS Capital to account for Tamarix Acquisitions is to remeasure its previously held equity interest inTamarix LP and Tamarix GP at fair value at December 4, 2013 and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings. The second step is to record OFS Capital’sacquisitions of the remaining limited partnership interests in Tamarix LP as well as the remaining LLC membership interests in Tamarix GP, and account forthe excess of the fair value of the previously held equity interest plus the acquisition price over the fair value of the total net assets of Tamarix LP andTamarix GP. Pursuant to ASC Topic 805, in a business combination, the excess of the acquisition price plus the fair value of the previously held equityinterests over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired would generally be recorded as goodwill. On the other hand, if the fair value of the netidentifiable assets acquired were higher than the acquisition price plus the fair value of the previously held equity interest, then under ASC Topic 805 suchexcess would be treated as a bargain purchase. The Company remeasured the fair value of its previously held equity investment in Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP by determining the total of Tamarix LP’s: 1)fair value of the debt and equity investments plus 2) cash, interest receivables and other assets plus 3) the fair value of the identified intangible assetattributable to Tamarix LP’s SBIC license (derived via utilization of the discounted cash flow approach to determine the net present value of the differentialin cash flows, over the life of the SBIC license, between application of the financing rate that could be obtained through the use of SBA-guaranteeddebentures and application of an alternative market-based rate of interest associated with the next best source of funding) less 4) the fair value of the SBAdebentures less 5) other liabilities; times 6) the Company’s ownership interest of Tamarix LP as of December 4, 2013. Tamarix LP’s debt investments weremeasured at fair value via application of the discounted cash flow method, based on discount rates (derived primarily from unobservable credit quality andunobservable market interest rate inputs) ranging from 13.6% to 15.9%, with a weighted average rate of 14.98%, and unobservable EBITDA multiple inputsranging from 3.72 to 6.89, with a weighted average of 4.95. Tamarix LP’s equity investments were measured at fair value via: 1) application of the discountedcash flow method, based on discount rates ranging from 20%-40% and unobservable EBITDA multiple inputs ranging from 3.72 to 6.89, as well as (2)application of the market approach, utilizing unobservable EBITDA multiple inputs of 3.31 to 9.51. 99 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 4. Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP (Continued) Immediately prior to Tamarix Acquisitions, the cost basis of OFS Capital’s equity investment in Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP totaled $10,224. On December4, 2013, OFS Capital’s equity investment in Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP was fair valued in the aggregate amount of $12,966. As a result, the Companyrecognized a gain from the Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP step acquisitions in the total amount of $2,742. OFS Capital then compared the fair value of itspreviously held equity interest of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP on December 4, 2013 in the aggregate amount of $12,966, plus the total acquisition price of$8,110, with the fair value of the total net assets acquired in the amount of $19,999, and recorded the excess amount of $1,077 as goodwill. The goodwillrecognized on this transaction was attributable to the control OFS Capital obtained upon Tamarix Acquisitions, which also enabled the Company toconsolidate the financial statements of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP into its own. For tax purposes, OFS Capital will amortize the goodwill over a period of 15years. As a result of Tamarix Acquisitions, the Company consolidated the financial statements of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP into its own effective December 4,2013. The following table reflects (1) the fair value of the net identifiable assets of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP on Tamarix Acquisitions date; (2) remeasurement ofthe Company’s equity interests in Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP at the Tamarix Acquisitions date fair value and recognition of a realized gain, and (3)recording of the excess of the fair value of the previously held equity interest of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP plus acquisition price over the fair value of thetotal net assets of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP as goodwill.

Related Party Transactions Investment Advisory and Management Agreement: On November 7, 2012, OFS Capital entered into an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement(“Advisory Agreement”) with OFS Capital Management, the Company’s Investment Advisor, under which the Investment Advisor manages the day-to-dayoperations of, and provides investment advisory services to, OFS Capital. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement and subject to the overall supervisionof our Board, the Investment Advisor is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting research and diligence on potential investments andequity sponsors, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. TheInvestment Advisor is a subsidiary of OFSAM and a registered investment advisor under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Investment Advisor’s services under the Advisory Agreement are not exclusive to the Company and the Investment Advisor is free to furnish similarservices to other entities so long as its services to the Company are not impaired. The Investment Advisor receives fees for providing services, consisting oftwo components—a base management fee and an incentive fee. From the completion of the Company’s IPO through October 31, 2013, the base managementfee was calculated at an annual rate of 0.875% based on the average value of the Company’s total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but includingassets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity) at the end of the two most recently completed calendarquarters. Beginning on November 1, 2013, the base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% based on the average value of the Company’stotal assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidatedentity) at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter. The InvestmentAdvisor has elected to exclude from the base management fee calculation any base management fee that would be owed in respect of the intangible asset andgoodwill resulting from Tamarix Acquisitions. The base management fee was $2,374 and $286, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013 and theperiod from November 8, 2012 to December 31, 2012. The incentive fee has two parts. The first part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment incomefor the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and anyother income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence andconsulting fees or other fees received from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including thebase management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement (as defined below), and any interest expense and any dividends paid on anyissued 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 instrumentswith payment-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investmentincome is expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account anyincentive fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter. The incentive fee with respect to the pre-incentive fee netincome is 20.00% of the amount, if any, by which the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds a2.00% (which is 8.00% annualized) hurdle rate and a “catch-up” provision measured as of the end of each calendar quarter. Under this provision, in anycalendar quarter, the Investment Advisor receives no incentive fee until the net investment income equals the hurdle rate of 2.00%, but then receives, as a“catch-up,” 100.00% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, thatexceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5%. The effect of this provision is that, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendarquarter, the Investment Advisor will receive 20.00% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter in which the Company incurs a loss. Forexample, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, the Company will pay theapplicable incentive fee even if the Company has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses. The Company’s net investmentincome used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s gross assets used to calculate the base managementfee. These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during thecurrent quarter. The second part of the incentive fee (the “Capital Gain Fee”) is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination ofthe Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), commencing on December 31, 2012, and equals 20% of the Company’s aggregate realized capital gains,if any, on a cumulative basis from the date of the election to be a BDC through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses andunrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less all previous amounts paid in respect of the capital gain incentive fee; provided that theincentive fee determined as of December 31, 2012 was calculated for a period of shorter than twelve calendar months to take into account any realized capitalgains computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation for the period beginning on the date of the Company’s election to be aBDC and ending December 31, 2012. 103 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 5. Related Party Transactions (Continued) The Company accrues the Capital Gain Fee if, on a cumulative basis, the sum of net realized capital gains and (losses) plus net unrealized appreciation and(depreciation) is positive. The Investment Advisor has elected to exclude from the Capital Gain Fee calculation any incentive fee that would be owed inrespect of the realized gain on step acquisitions resulting from Tamarix Acquisitions. The Company did not incur any incentive fee expense for either the year ended December 31, 2013 or the period November 8, 2012 through December 31,2012. Prior to the Company’s election to become a BDC, the Investment Advisor served as its advisor effective September 28, 2010, under an Investment AdvisoryAgreement pursuant to which OFS Capital paid an annual base management fee to the Investment Advisor to compensate for its investment advisory services.The base management fee was calculated initially at 2% per annum of the Company’s average total assets (excluding cash) at the end of the two most recentlycompleted calendar quarters and was amended on March 30, 2012, pursuant to which OFS Capital paid a base management fee of 2% per annum on itsaverage total assets excluding cash and the assets held by OFS Capital WM. For the assets held by OFS Capital WM at the subsidiary level, OFS Capital paida base management fee of 0.5% per annum on the average total assets (excluding cash) of OFS Capital WM. For the period January 1, 2012 throughNovember 7, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company incurred management fee expense to its investment advisor of $1,168 and $1,365,respectively. Administration Agreement: On November 7, 2012, OFS Capital entered into an administration agreement (“Administration Agreement”) with OFS CapitalServices, LLC (“OFS Capital Services” or the “Administrator”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFSAM. Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, theAdministrator furnishes the Company with office facilities and equipment, necessary software licenses and subscriptions and clerical, bookkeeping andrecord keeping services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or oversees the performance of, the Company’srequired administrative services, which include being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports toits stockholders and all other reports and materials required to be filed with the SEC or any other regulatory authority. In addition, the Administrator assiststhe Company in determining and publishing its net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of its tax returns and the printing and dissemination ofreports to its stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional servicesrendered to the Company by others. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator also provides managerial assistance on the Company’s behalf tothose portfolio companies that have accepted the Company’s offer to provide such assistance. Payment under the Administration Agreement is equal to anamount based upon the Company’s allocable portion of the Administrator’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement,including rent and the Company’s allocable portion of the cost of its officers, including its chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief complianceofficer, chief accounting officer, and their respective staffs. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and the period November 8, 2012 through December 31,2012, the Company incurred an administration fee expense of $938 and $110, respectively. Other Related Party Transactions: Due from OFS Capital Management As of December 31, 2013, OFS Capital Management owed $218 to the Company, as a result of allocation by the Company of a portion of the D&O/E&Oinsurance expenses to the Investment Advisor under certain joint insurance policies between the two entities. Subsequently, in January 2014, the InvestmentAdvisor paid the $218 owed to the Company. Distributions from OFS Capital WM In January 2012, OFS Capital received a cash distribution from OFS Capital WM in the amount of $1,225. 104 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 5. Related Party Transactions (Continued) Sale of Debt Investments by OFS Capital WM In May 2012, OFS Capital WM sold a debt investment to OFS Funding I, LLC (“OFS Funding I”), a wholly owned subsidiary of OFSAM, for cash proceeds of$4,157. The debt investment had a carrying value of $4,095 and a fair value of $2,930, respectively, on the date of the sale. OFS Capital WM recognized arealized loss of $1,165 from the sale for the difference between the carrying and fair value of the debt investment on the date of sale. In addition, OFS Capitalrecorded an equity contribution of $1,227 from its parent to account for the difference between the fair value of the debt investment sold and cash proceedsreceived by OFS Capital WM from OFS Funding I. In September 2012, OFS Capital WM sold a debt investment to OFS Funding I for $792. The debt investment had a carrying value of $884. OFS Capital WMrecognized a realized loss of $92 on the sale. Management Fees – Other Related Party From March 2012 through December 4, 2013, Tamarix LP incurred a management fee to Tamarix Associates, the former investment manager of Tamarix LP,at a per annum rate of 2.0% of the sum of Tamarix LP’s 1) unreduced regulatory capital as defined under the SBIC Act plus 2) the assumed leverage from theSBA equal to two times Tamarix LP’s unreduced regulatory capital. Prior to the deconsolidation of Tamarix LP, for the period January 1, 2012 through July27, 2012, OFS Capital recorded management fee expense in the amount of $627 on its consolidated statement of operations. The investment management agreement between Tamarix LP and Tamarix Associates was terminated on December 4, 2013. Note 6.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company follows ASC Topic 820 for measuring fair value. Prior to the Company’s election to become a BDC, the Company also followed the guidancein ASC Topic 820 in disclosing the fair value reported for all financial instruments that were either impaired or available for sale securities, using thedefinitions provided in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC Topic 320”). Fair value is the pricethat would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and sets outa fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and thelowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Inputs are broadly defined under ASC Topic 820 as assumptions market participants would use in pricing anasset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820 are described below: Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurementdate. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and fair value is determinedthrough the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Level 3: Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Theinputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information under the circumstances and may require significant management judgment orestimation. 107 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued) In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within thefair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of aparticular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment. The Company assesses the levels of the investments at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the subsequent measurementdate closest in time to the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 for theyear ended December 31, 2013, the period from November 8, 2012 to December 31, 2012, the period from January 1, 2012 to November 7, 2012, and the yearended December 31, 2011. The following sections describe the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure different financial instruments at fairvalue and include the levels within the fair value hierarchy in which the financial instruments are categorized. Investments for which prices are not observable are generally private investments in the equity and debt securities of operating companies. The primaryanalytical method used to estimate the fair value of Level 3 investments is the discounted cash flow method (although in certain instances a liquidationanalysis, option theoretical, or other methodology may be most appropriate). The discounted cash flow approach to determine fair value (or a range of fairvalues) involves applying an appropriate discount rate(s) to the estimated future cash flows using various relevant factors depending on investment type,including assumed growth rate (in cash flows) and capitalization rates/multiples (for determining terminal values of underlying portfolio companies). Thevaluation based on the inputs determined to be the most reasonable and probable is used as the fair value of the investment. The determination of fair valueusing these methodologies may take into consideration a range of factors including, but not limited to, the price at which the investment was acquired, thenature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance,and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment. Application of these valuation methodologies involves a significant degree ofjudgment by management. To assess the reasonableness of the discounted cash flow approach, the fair value of equity securities, including warrants, in portfolio companies may alsoconsider the market approach—that is, through analyzing, and applying to the underlying portfolio companies, market valuation multiples of publicly-traded firms engaged in businesses similar to those of the portfolio companies. The market approach to determining the fair value of a portfolio company’sequity security (or securities) will typically involve: (1) applying to the portfolio company’s trailing twelve months (or current year projected) EBITDA a lowto high range of enterprise value to EBITDA multiples that are derived from an analysis of publicly-traded comparable companies, in order to arrive at a rangeof enterprise values for the portfolio company; (2) subtracting from the range of calculated enterprise values the outstanding balances of any debt or equitysecurities that would be senior in right of payment to the equity securities held by the Company; and (3) multiplying the range of equity values derivedtherefrom by the Company’s ownership share of such equity tranche in order to arrive at a range of fair values for the Company’s equity security (orsecurities). Application of these valuation methodologies involves a significant degree of judgment by management. Equity in a portfolio company that invests in loans will typically be valued by arriving at a fair value of such vehicle’s loan assets (plus, when appropriate,the carrying value of certain other assets), and deducting the book value or fair value (as appropriate) of such vehicle’s liabilities to arrive at a fair value forthe equity. When appropriate, in order to recognize value that would be created by growth opportunities of such portfolio company, equity in a portfoliocompany may also be valued by taking into consideration the magnitude, timing, and effective life of its expected future investments in loans. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of theinvestments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materiallyfrom the values that may ultimately be received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions or otherwise are lessliquid than publicly traded instruments. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company mightrealize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded. With respect to Level 3 investments, where sufficient marketquotations are not readily available or for which no or an insufficient number of indicative prices from pricing services or brokers or dealers have beenreceived, the Company undertakes, on a quarterly basis, a valuation process as described below: •For each debt investment, a basic credit rating review process is completed. The risk rating on every credit facility is reviewed and eitherreaffirmed or revised by the Investment Advisor’s investment committee. 108 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued) •Each portfolio company or investment is valued by an investment professional.•Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with individual members of the Investment Advisor’s investment committee.•The preliminary valuations are then submitted to the Investment Advisor’s investment committee for ratification.•Third party valuation firm(s) will be engaged to provide valuation services as requested, by reviewing the investment committee’s preliminaryvaluations. The Investment Advisor’s investment committee’s preliminary fair value conclusions on each of the Company’s assets for whichsufficient market quotations are not readily available will be reviewed and assessed by a third-party valuation firm at least once in every 12-monthperiod, and more often as determined by the Company’s Board or required by the Company’s valuation policy. Such valuation assessment may be inthe form of positive assurance, range of values or other valuation method based on the discretion of the Company’s Board.•The Company’s Board will discuss valuations and determine the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input ofOFS Capital Management, LLC and, where appropriate, the respective independent valuation firms. The Company’s investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of investments due to market changes. Market riskis directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded. The Company manages its exposure to market riskrelated to its investments through monitoring the financial condition of its investments, as well as the volatility and liquidity trends of the markets in whichit trades. The following tables present fair value measurements of the Company’s investments and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilizedby the Company to determine such fair value: December 31, 2013 Fair Value Measurements Using Description (Level I) (Level II) (Level III) Total Assets: Senior secured debt investments $- $- $221,546 $221,546 Subordinated debt investments - - 9,008 9,008 Equity investments - - 7,365 7,365 Money market funds * 24,869 - - 24,869 Total $24,869 $- $237,919 $262,788 * included in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheet.

Changes in EBITDA multiples,as well as changes in the discount rate, could have a significant impact on fair values, with the fair value of an equity investment susceptible to change intandem with the changes in EBITDA multiples, and in inverse relation to changes in the discount rate. December 31, 2012 Fair Value Measurements Using Description (Level I) (Level II) (Level III) Total Assets: Senior secured debt investments $- $- $227,542 $227,542 Equity investment in Tamarix LP - - 4,657 4,657 Money market funds * 6,103 - - 6,103 - Total $6,103 $- $232,199 $238,302 * included in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company had one category of debt investments at December 31, 2012, consisting of senior loans to 58 portfolio companies. The debt investments weremeasured at fair value via application of the discounted cash flow method, based on discount rates (derived primarily from unobservable credit quality andunobservable market interest rate inputs) ranging from 7.44% to 15.80%, with a weighted average rate of 8.29% and unobservable EBITDA multiple inputsranging from 3.75 to 9.03, with a weighted average multiple of 6.13. Changes in credit quality (which would impact the discount rate), as well as changes inEBITDA multiples, could have a significant impact on fair values, with the fair value of a particular debt investment susceptible to change in inverse relationto changes in the discount rate. The Company determined the fair value of its equity investment in Tamarix LP at December 31, 2012 by determining the total of: 1) the fair value of the debtand equity securities held by Tamarix LP as of December 31, 2012 in the aggregate amount of $20,903; plus 2) the carrying value of Tamarix LP’s cash andreceivables in the total amount of $944; less 3) the carrying value of Tamarix LP’s liabilities in the total amount of $14,383; times 4) the Company’spercentage share of Tamarix LP’s paid in capital as of December 31, 2012. Tamarix LP’s debt investments in three portfolio companies at December 31, 2012 were measured at fair value via application of the discounted cash flowmethod, based on discount rates (derived primarily from unobservable credit quality and unobservable market interest rate inputs) ranging from 13.02% to15.0%, with a weighted average rate of 14.64%, and unobservable EBITDA multiple inputs ranging from 4.08 to 6.48, with a weighted average of 4.81. Changes in credit quality (which would impact the discount rate), as well as changes in EBITDA multiples, could have a significant impact on fair values,with the fair value of a particular debt investment susceptible to change in inverse relation to changes in the discount rate. 110 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 7.

The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable toestimate that value. Certain financial instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented donot represent the underlying value of the Company. The information presented should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire company since a fair value calculation is only required for alimited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to the wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making theestimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. Although the outcome of such litigation cannot bepredicted with any certainty, management is of the opinion, based on the advice of legal counsel, that final disposition of any litigation should not have amaterial adverse effect on the financial position of the Company. In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that providegeneral indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be madeagainst the Company that have not occurred. The Company believes the risk of any material obligation under these indemnifications to be unlikely. Note 10. Revolving Line of Credit On September 28, 2010, OFS Capital WM entered into a $180,000 secured revolving credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “OFS Capital WMCredit Facility”) with Wells Fargo and Madison Capital Funding, LLC (“Madison Capital”, an affiliated entity of the Loan Manager), with the Class Alenders (initially Wells Fargo) providing up to $135,000 in Class A loans (“Class A Facility”) and the Class B lenders (initially Madison Capital) providingup to $45,000 in Class B loans to OFS Capital WM (“Class B Facility”).

SBA Debentures Payable Upon the completion of Tamarix Acquisitions, effective December 4, 2013, the Company consolidated the financial statements of Tamarix LP into its ownand Tamarix LP’s SBA debentures payable are reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

These debentures are non-recourse to the Company, have interest payable semi-annually and a ten-year maturity. The interest rate isfixed at the time of issuance at a market-driven spread over U.S. Treasury Notes with ten-year maturities. Under present SBIC regulations, the maximum amount of SBA-guaranteed debt that may be issued by a single SBIC licensee is $150,000. An SBIC fund mayborrow up to two times the amount of its regulatory capital, subject to customary regulatory requirements. As of December 4, 2013, immediately prior toTamarix Acquisitions, Tamarix LP, operating as a stand-alone SBIC fund, had leverage commitments of $67,295 from the SBA. In connection with TamarixAcquisitions, the Company increased to $75,000 its commitments to Tamarix LP, which became a drop down SBIC fund of the Company on December 4,2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had funded $49,438 of the $75,000 commitment, and it funded an additional $12,000 in January 2014.

Note 12. Federal Income Tax The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and to distribute substantially all of its respective net taxable income.Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been recorded in the financial statements. Taxable income differs from net increase in net assetsresulting from operations primarily due to unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments, as investment gains and losses are not included in taxableincome until they are realized. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2013, our taxable income differed from net increase in net assets resulting fromoperations due to (1) the exclusion from our taxable income of realized gain from Tamarix Acquisitions, and (2) temporary tax and book difference related toour equity investment from pass-through entities. The following reconciles the net increase in net assets resulting from operations to taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the periodNovember 8, 2012 through December 31, 2012: 117 OFS Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 12.

Extraordinary Gain (Loss) OFS Capital WM settles its quarterly waterfall distributions twenty days following the end of each calendar quarter. As a result, the OFS Capital WM waterfalldistribution for the fourth quarter of 2012 was made on January 22, 2013. Although the fourth quarter equity distribution included $873 relating to the pre-IPO period from October 1, 2012 through November 7, 2012, which could have been redistributed for the benefit of OFSAM—-which was the sole member ofOFS Capital prior to the IPO—-the entire equity distribution from the January 22, 2013 waterfall was instead retained by OFS Capital WM’s sole member,OFS Capital. As a result, OFS Capital recorded an extraordinary gain in the amount of $873 for the post-IPO period from November 8, 2012 throughDecember 31, 2012, and an extraordinary loss in the same amount for the period January 1, 2012 through November 7, 2012.

Note 19. Subsequent Events Not Disclosed Elsewhere On February 14, 2014, the Company paid a dividend of $0.34 per share to shareholders of record at January 31, 2014. In connection with the dividend, theCompany made cash payments of $3,240 and issued 2,656 shares of common stock. In February 2014, the Company received the SBA’s approval to change the names of Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP to OFS SBIC I, LP and OFS SBIC I GP,respectively. In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition and/or disclosure. 122 Item 9.Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure Not applicable. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the“Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded,processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures includecontrols and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulatedand communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financialofficer) as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principalexecutive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of these disclosure controls andprocedures as of December 31, 2013. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principalfinancial officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2013, the end of the period covered by thisAnnual Report on Form 10-K, due to the material weakness described below. In light of this material weakness, the Company refined its procedures to ensure its financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generallyaccepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Audit Committee was advised of issues encountered and key decisions reached by management relating to theremediation efforts. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly in allmaterial respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. (b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internalcontrol over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed toprovide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes inaccordance with U.S. GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records thatin reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that thetransactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that the receipts and expenditures ofthe company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assuranceregarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on thefinancial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projectionsof any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that thedegree of compliance with polices or procedures may deteriorate. Management (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of ourinternal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued in 1992 by the Committee of SponsoringOrganizations of the Treadway Commission. As permitted by SEC guidance, management excluded Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP from its evaluation ofinternal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 because the Company acquired the remaining ownership interests in these two entitiesduring December 2013. Tamarix LP and Tamarix GP are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company whose combined total assets and net income representedapproximately 28.39% and (14.04)%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonablepossibility that a material misstatement of the registrant’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As aresult of our evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2013, except for the exclusion of Tamarix LP andTamarix GP, management identified a material weakness related to management’s analysis regarding the appropriate accounting treatment for the TamarixAcquisitions. The Tamarix Acquisitions was a complex, non-routine transaction. The Company performed extensive accounting research and analysisregarding the appropriate accounting treatment for the Tamarix Acquisitions, because ASC Topic 805 does not include a scope-out for investment companycombinations. Based on its research and analysis, the Company initially considered treating the Tamarix Acquisitions as a business combination governedby ASC Topic 805, albeit reflecting as a day one loss, rather than recording as goodwill or other intangibles, the excess purchase price over the fair value ofthe net identifiable assets. The Company believed that approach, which would constitute a departure from GAAP, might be appropriate, because thetraditional business combination treatment (including recognition of goodwill) under ASC Topic 805 did not appear to appropriately reflect a businesscombination between two investment companies, especially in the Company’s situation, where the acquirer (OFS Capital) had already been fair valuing theunderlying assets of the acquiree (Tamarix LP) for a number of quarters. The Company ultimately decided that any departure from ASC Topic 805 was notwarranted. The deficiency described above was detected while preparing the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013; however, the materialweakness did not result in any misstatement, material or otherwise, of our consolidated financial statements, because the Tamarix Acquisitions wereaccounted for under ASC Topic 805 in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. Because of this material weakness, managementconcluded that the Company did not maintain effective control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. Remediation Efforts The Company implemented the following remediation steps to address the material weakness discussed above and to improve its internal control overfinancial reporting: ·Future business combination transactions will be accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805. (c) Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm Our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 has been audited by McGladrey LLP, an independent registered publicaccounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report under the heading Report of Independent RegisteredPublic Accounting Firm. (d) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), occurred during the fiscal quarterended December 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, other than asdescribed in this Item 9A regarding the described material weakness and related remediation efforts.
