WHEREAS, Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act specifies that the bond may be in the form of (i) an individual bond for each covered person, or a schedule or blanket bond covering such persons, (ii) a blanket bond which names the Company as the only insured (a “single insured bond”), or (iii) a bond which names the Company and one or more other parties as insureds (a “joint insured bond”), as permitted by Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act;

WHEREAS, Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act requires that a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the BDC, as such term is defined under the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), approve periodically (but not less than once every 12 months) the reasonableness of the form and amount of the bond, with due consideration to the value of the aggregate assets of the Company to which any covered person may have access, the type and terms of the arrangements made for the custody and safekeeping of such assets, and the nature of securities and other investments to be held by the Company, and pursuant to factors contained in Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act, which are described in the accompanying memorandum attached hereto; and

WHEREAS, under Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to make certain filings with the SEC and give certain notices to each member of the Board in connection with the bond, and designate an officer who shall make such filings and give such notices.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, having considered the expected aggregate value of the securities and funds of the Company to which officers or employees of the Company may have access (either directly or through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such securities), the type and terms of the arrangements made for the custody of such securities and funds, the nature of securities and other investments to be held by the Company, the accounting procedures and controls of the Company, the nature and method of conducting the operations of the Company and the requirements of Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17g-1 thereunder, the Board of Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, hereby determines that the amount, type, form, premium and coverage of the fidelity bond (the “Fidelity Bond”), covering the officers and employees of the Company and insuring the Company against loss from fraudulent or dishonest acts, including larceny and embezzlement, issued by Federal Insurance Company (“Chubb”), a subsidiary of The Chubb Corporation, having an aggregate coverage of $525,000, is fair and reasonable;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the terms and conditions of the Fidelity Bond are approved in all respects by the Board of Directors and all of the Independent Directors;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers (defined below) be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered, and directed (i) to negotiate, execute, and deliver such documents or agreements as may be necessary to cause the Fidelity Bond to be issued by Chubb, (ii) to take all appropriate actions, with the advice of legal counsel to the Company, to provide and maintain the Fidelity Bond on behalf of the Company, and (iii) to do and perform all acts and things in connection with the foregoing, and to cause the Company to perform its obligations thereunder, including, but not limited to, paying of any premiums;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Chief Financial Officer of the Company be, and hereby is, designated as the party responsible for making the necessary filings and giving the notices with respect to such bond required by paragraph (g) of Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers (defined below) be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered, and directed to file a copy of the Fidelity Bond and any other related document or instrument with the Securities and Exchange Commission;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers (defined below) be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered, and directed, in the name and on behalf of the Company, to make or cause to be made, and to execute and deliver, all such additional agreements, documents, instruments, and certifications and to take all such steps, and to make all such payments, fees and remittances, as any one or more of such officers may at any time or times deem necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the purpose and intent of the foregoing resolutions;

FURTHER RESOLVED, that any and all actions previously taken by the Company or any of its directors or Authorized Officers (defined below) in connection with the documents and actions contemplated by the foregoing resolutions be, and they hereby are, ratified, confirmed, approved, and adopted in all respects as and for the acts and deeds of the Company; and
