In this session, Mr. Labita provided an overview of the public Business Development Company ("BDC") sector, its recent performance and the relative value that may be present within.

BDCs are a type of closed-end fund that have grown significantly in recent years.  Created by Congress in 1980 to spur investment in small-to-medium sized companies, the sector has grown to currently include 53 publicly traded BDCs which trade at an aggregate market cap of over $32 billion and have a median distribution yield of over 10.50%.

BDCs generally make investments in U.S.-based small-to-medium sized private companies in the form of long-term debt or equity, as well as investments in thinly traded small cap public companies, consistent with the legislation's objective of encouraging capital flows to companies that had traditionally been underserved by banks and the capital markets.  BDCs are typically structured as a pass-through entity for tax purposes.

BDCs continue to be a highly attractive source of yield, total return, liquidity and secured credit exposure; in addition, Prospect believes the traded BDC market continues to present a unique opportunity for significant upside via price appreciation.  As manager of Prospect Capital Corporation (Nasdaq: PSEC), the largest multi-line BDC by market capitalization, Prospect remains deeply ensconced in each of the core businesses of the BDC sector as well as the performance of BDC securities in public markets.

Prospect's presentation will be available 24/7 for 90 days. Investors and advisors may view shareholder materials from the "virtual trade booth" for the next three weeks.
