(All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data.) The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this Quarterly Report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from any results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to the factors discussed in Part II, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" and "Forward-Looking Statements" appearing elsewhere herein. Overview The terms "Prospect," "the Company," "we," "us" and "our" meanProspect Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise. Prospect is a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company incorporated inMaryland . We have elected to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). As a BDC, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC"), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). We were organized onApril 13, 2004 , and were funded in an initial public offering completed onJuly 27, 2004 . OnMay 15, 2007 , we formed a wholly owned subsidiaryProspect Capital Funding LLC ("PCF"), aDelaware limited liability company and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are used as collateral for the revolving credit facility at PCF. Our wholly owned subsidiaryProspect Small Business Lending, LLC ("PSBL") was formed onJanuary 27, 2014 , and purchased small business whole loans from online small business loan originators, includingOn Deck Capital, Inc. ("OnDeck"). OnSeptember 30, 2014 , we formed a wholly-owned subsidiaryProspect Yield Corporation, LLC ("PYC") and effectiveOctober 23, 2014 , PYC holds a portion of our collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), which we also refer to as subordinated structured notes ("SSNs"). Each of these subsidiaries have been consolidated since operations commenced. We consolidate certain of our wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us in order to facilitate our investment strategy. The following companies are included in our consolidated financial statements and are collectively referred to as the "Consolidated Holding Companies":CP Holdings of Delaware LLC ("CP Holdings ");Credit Central Holdings of Delaware, LLC ("Credit Central Delaware");Energy Solutions Holdings Inc. ;First Tower Holdings of Delaware LLC ("First Tower Delaware");MITY Holdings of Delaware Inc. ("MITY Delaware");Nationwide Acceptance Holdings LLC ;NMMB Holdings, Inc. ("NMMB Holdings ");NPH Property Holdings, LLC ("NPH");Prospect Opportunity Holdings I, Inc. ("POHI");SB Forging Company, Inc. ("SB Forging");STI Holding, Inc. ;UTP Holdings Group Inc. ("UTP Holdings ");Valley Electric Holdings I, Inc. ("Valley Holdings I"); andValley Electric Holdings II, Inc. ("Valley Holdings II"). We are externally managed by our investment adviser,Prospect Capital Management L.P. ("Prospect Capital Management " or the "Investment Adviser").Prospect Administration LLC ("Prospect Administration "), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser, provides administrative services and facilities necessary for us to operate. Our investment objective is to generate both current income and long-term capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We invest primarily in senior and subordinated secured debt and equity of private companies in need of capital for acquisitions, divestitures, growth, development, recapitalizations and other purposes. We work with the management teams or financial sponsors to seek investments with historical cash flows, asset collateral or contracted pro-forma cash flows. We currently have four primary strategies that guide our origination of investment opportunities: (1) lending to companies, including companies controlled by private equity sponsors and not controlled by private equity sponsors, and including both directly-originated loans and syndicated loans, (2) lending to companies and purchasing controlling equity positions in such companies, including both operating companies and financial services companies, (3) purchasing controlling equity positions and lending to real estate companies, and (4) investing in structured credit. We may also invest in other strategies and opportunities from time to time that we view as attractive. We continue to evaluate other origination strategies in the ordinary course of business with no specific top-down allocation to any single origination strategy. 106 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lending to Companies - We make directly-originated, agented loans to companies, including companies which are controlled by private equity sponsors and companies that are not controlled by private equity sponsors (such as companies that are controlled by the management team, the founder, a family or public shareholders). This debt can take the form of first lien, second lien, unitranche or unsecured loans. These loans typically have equity subordinate to our loan position. We may also purchase selected equity co-investments in such companies. In addition to directly-originated, agented loans, we also invest in senior and secured loans syndicated loans and high yield bonds that have been sold to a club or syndicate of buyers, both in the primary and secondary markets. These investments are often purchased with a long term, buy-and-hold outlook, and we often look to provide significant input to the transaction by providing anchoring orders. Historically, this strategy has comprised approximately 40%-60% of our portfolio. Lending to Companies and Purchasing Controlling Equity Positions in Such Companies - This strategy involves purchasing senior and secured yield-producing debt and controlling equity positions in operating companies across various industries. We believe this strategy provides enhanced certainty of closure to sellers and the opportunity for management to continue on in their current roles. These investments are often structured in tax-efficient partnerships, enhancing returns. Historically, this strategy has comprised approximately 15%-25% of our portfolio. Purchasing Controlling Equity Positions and Lending to Real Estate Companies - We purchase debt and controlling equity positions in tax-efficient real estate investment trusts ("REIT" or "REITs"). The real estate investments ofNational Property REIT Corp. ("NPRC") are in various classes of developed and occupied real estate properties that generate current yields, including multi-family properties, and student housing. NPRC seeks to identify properties that have historically significant occupancy rates and recurring cash flow generation. NPRC generally co-invests with established and experienced property management teams that manage such properties after acquisition. Additionally, NPRC makes investments in rated secured structured notes (primarily debt of structured credit). NPRC also purchases loans originated by certain consumer loan facilitators. It purchases each loan in its entirety (i.e., a "whole loan"). The borrowers are consumers, and the loans are typically serviced by the facilitators of the loans. Historically, this overall investment strategy has comprised approximately 10%-20% of our business. Investing in Structured Credit - We make investments in structured credit, often taking a significant position in subordinated structured notes (equity) and rated secured structured notes (debt). The underlying portfolio of each structured credit investment is diversified across approximately 100 to 200 broadly syndicated loans and does not have direct exposure to real estate, mortgages, or consumer-based credit assets. The structured credit portfolios in which we invest are managed by established collateral management teams with many years of experience in the industry. Historically, this overall strategy has comprised approximately 10%-20% of our portfolio. We invest primarily in first and second lien secured loans and unsecured debt, which in some cases includes an equity component. First and second lien secured loans generally are senior debt instruments that rank ahead of unsecured debt of a given portfolio company. These loans also have the benefit of security interests on the assets of the portfolio company, which may rank ahead of or be junior to other security interests. Our investments in structured credit are subordinated to senior loans and are generally unsecured. We invest in debt and equity positions of structured credit which are a form of securitization in which the cash flows of a portfolio of loans are pooled and passed on to different classes of owners in various tranches. Our structured credit investments are derived from portfolios of corporate debt securities which are generally risk rated from BB to B. We hold many of our control investments in a two-tier structure consisting of a holding company and one or more related operating companies for tax purposes. These holding companies serve various business purposes including concentration of management teams, optimization of third-party borrowing costs, improvement of supplier, customer, and insurance terms, and enhancement of co-investments by the management teams. In these cases, our investment, which is generally equity in the holding company, the holding company's equity investment in the operating company and any debt from us directly to the operating company structure represents our total exposure for the investment. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , as shown in our Consolidated Schedule of Investments, the cost basis and fair value of our investments in controlled companies was$2,486,474 and$3,046,090 , respectively. This structure gives rise to several of the risks described in our public documents and highlighted elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. We consolidate all wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us for the purpose of holding our controlled investments in operating companies. There is no significant effect of consolidating these holding companies as they hold minimal assets other than their investments in the controlled operating companies. Investment company accounting prohibits the consolidation of any operating companies. OnJune 11, 2021 , at a special meeting of our stockholders, our stockholders authorized us to sell shares of our common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below our net asset value per share at the time of sale in one or more offerings, subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of its outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale). 107 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First Quarter Highlights Investment Transactions We seek to be a long-term investor with our portfolio companies. During the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , we acquired$315,156 of new investments, completed follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies totaling approximately$86,722 , funded$4,000 of revolver advances, and recorded PIK interest of$18,790 , resulting in gross investment originations of$424,668 .

The 3.437% 2028 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.437% per year, payable semi-annually onApril 15 andOctober 15 of each year, beginning onApril 15, 2022 . Total proceeds from the issuance of the 3.437% 2028 Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, were$291,798 . Equity Issuances OnJuly 12, 2021 , we entered into an underwriting agreement by and among us,Prospect Capital Management L.P. ,Prospect Administration LLC , and Morgan Stanley & Co.LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC andUBS Securities LLC , as representatives of the underwriters, relating to the offer and sale of 6,000,000 shares, or$150,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our 5.35% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value$0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock" or "5.35% Preferred Stock"), at a public offering price of$25.00 per share. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock solely to cover over-allotments. The offering closed onJuly 19, 2021 . OnJuly 22, 2021 ,August 19, 2021 , andSeptember 23, 2021 , we issued 339,245, 360,741, and 379,182 shares of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan, respectively. At any time prior to the listing of the 5.50% Series A1 Preferred Stock ("Series A1 Preferred Stock"), the 5.50% Series M1 Preferred Stock ("Series M1 Preferred Stock"), the 5.50% Series M2 Preferred Stock ("Series M2 Preferred Stock"), the 5.50% Series AA1 Preferred Stock ("Series AA1 Preferred Stock") and the 5.50% Series A2 Preferred Stock ("Series A2 Preferred Stock," and collectively, the "5.50% Preferred Stock") on a national securities exchange, shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder of the 5.50% Preferred Stock (the "Holder Optional Conversion"). During the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , 2,150 shares of our Series A1 Preferred Stock were converted to 5,972 shares of our common stock, in connection with Holder Optional Conversions. 108 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , we issued 2,946,568 shares of our Series A1 Preferred Stock for net proceeds of$66,614 , 173,506 shares of our Series M1 Preferred Stock for net proceeds of$4,234 , and 6,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock for net proceeds of$145,275 , each excluding offering costs and preferred stock dividend reinvestments.Investment Holdings AtSeptember 30, 2021 , we have$6,430,707 , or 163.1%, of our net assets applicable to common shares invested in 124 long-term portfolio investments and CLOs. Our annualized current yield was 11.6% and 11.7% as ofSeptember 30, 2021 andJune 30, 2021 , respectively, across all performing interest bearing investments, excluding equity investments and non-accrual loans. Our annualized current yield was 9.0% and 9.2% as ofSeptember 30, 2021 andJune 30, 2021 , respectively, across all investments. Monetization of equity positions that we hold and loans on non-accrual status are not included in this yield calculation. In many of our portfolio companies we hold equity positions, ranging from minority interests to majority stakes, which we expect over time to contribute to our investment returns. Some of these equity positions include features such as contractual minimum internal rates of returns, preferred distributions, flip structures and other features expected to generate additional investment returns, as well as contractual protections and preferences over junior equity, in addition to the yield and security offered by our cash flow and collateral debt protections. We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, "Control Investments" are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Under the 1940 Act, "Affiliate Investments" are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. "Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments" are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , we own controlling interests in the following portfolio companies:CP Energy Services Inc. ("CP Energy");Credit Central Loan Company, LLC ("Credit Central");Echelon Transportation, LLC ("Echelon");First Tower Finance Company LLC ("First Tower Finance");Freedom Marine Solutions, LLC ("Freedom Marine");InterDent, Inc. ("InterDent");Kickapoo Ranch Pet Resort ("Kickapoo");MITY, Inc. ("MITY"); NPRC;Nationwide Loan Company LLC ("Nationwide");NMMB, Inc. ("NMMB");Pacific World Corporation ("Pacific World ");R-V Industries, Inc. ("R-V");Universal Turbine Parts, LLC ("UTP");USES Corp. ("United States Environmental Services" or "USES"); andValley Electric Company, Inc. ("Valley Electric "). InJune 2019 ,CP Energy purchased a controlling interest of the common equity ofSpartan Energy Holdings, Inc. ("Spartan Holdings "), which owns 100% ofSpartan Energy Services, LLC ("Spartan"), a portfolio company of Prospect with$15,656 in senior secured term loans (the "Spartan Term Loan A") due to us as ofSeptember 30, 2021 . As a result ofCP Energy's purchase, and given Prospect's controlling interest inCP Energy , we report our investments in Spartan as control investment. Spartan remains the direct borrow and guarantor to Prospect for the Spartan Term Loan A. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , we also own affiliated interests inNixon, Inc. ("Nixon"),PGX Holdings, Inc. ("PGX"),RGIS Services, LLC , ("RGIS"), andTargus Cayman HoldCo Limited ("Targus").

In addition, Revolving Line of Credit and Delayed Draw Term Loans are excluded from the calculation. 112 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment Valuation Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, management and the independent valuation firm look at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. In determining the range of values for debt instruments where market quotations are not available, except CLOs and debt investments in controlling portfolio companies, management and the independent valuation firm estimated corporate and security credit ratings and identified corresponding yields to maturity for each loan from relevant market data. A discounted cash flow technique was then applied using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, to determine a range of values. In determining the range of values for debt investments of controlled companies and equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying a market approach such as using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") multiples, net income and/or book value multiples for similar guideline public companies and/or similar recent investment transactions and/or an income approach, such as the discounted cash flow technique. The enterprise value technique may also be used to value debt investments which are credit impaired. For stressed debt and equity investments, asset recovery analysis was used. In determining the range of values for our investments in CLOs, the independent valuation firm uses a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The valuations were accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view as well as to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model usingMonte Carlo simulations, which are simulations used to model the probability of different outcomes, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows for the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market and certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the corresponding multi-path cash flow model. With respect to our online consumer and SME lending initiative, we invest primarily in marketplace loans through marketplace lending platforms. We do not conduct loan origination activities ourselves. Therefore, our ability to purchase consumer and SME loans, and our ability to grow our portfolio of consumer and SME loans, are directly influenced by the business performance and competitiveness of the marketplace loan origination business of the marketplace lending platforms from which we purchase consumer and SME loans. In addition, our ability to analyze the risk-return profile of consumer and SME loans is significantly dependent on the marketplace platforms' ability to effectively evaluate a borrower's credit profile and likelihood of default. If we are unable to effectively evaluate borrowers' credit profiles or the credit decisioning and scoring models implemented by each platform, we may incur unanticipated losses which could adversely impact our operating results. The Board of Directors looked at several factors in determining where within the range to value the asset including: recent operating and financial trends for the asset, independent ratings obtained from third parties, comparable multiples for recent sales of companies within the industry and discounted cash flow models for our investments in CLOs. The composite of all these various valuation techniques, applied to each investment, was a total valuation of$6,430,707 . Our portfolio companies are generally lower middle-market companies, outside of the financial sector, with less than$100,000 of annual EBITDA. We believe our investment portfolio has experienced less volatility than others because we believe there are more buy and hold investors who own these less liquid investments. Impact of the novel coronavirus (the "COVID-19") pandemic As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , there remains to be global uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused severe disruptions in the global economy and has negatively impacted the fair value and performance of certain investments since the pandemic began. For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , the aggregate increases in fair value and net unrealized depreciation on investments were driven by the expansion of comparable company trading multiples and/or tightened credit spreads as the level of market volatility generated by the COVID-19 pandemic declined over the three month period. For certain investments in our portfolio, the valuations continue to reflect factors such as specific industry concerns, uncertainty about the duration of business shutdowns and near-term liquidity needs. 113 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Control Company Investments Control investments offer increased risk and reward over straight debt investments. Operating results and changes in market multiples can result in dramatic changes in values from quarter to quarter. Significant downturns in operations can further result in our looking to recoveries on sales of assets rather than the enterprise value of the investment. Equity positions in our portfolio are susceptible to potentially significant changes in value, both increases as well as decreases, due to changes in operating results and market multiples. Our controlled companies discussed below experienced such changes and we recorded corresponding fluctuations in valuations during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 .First Tower Finance Company LLC Prospect owns 100% of the equity of First Tower Delaware, a consolidated holding company.

The increase in Targus's premium to amortized cost was driven by strong financial performance.

For debt investments, the fair value is generally limited on the high side to each loan's par value, plus any prepayment premium that could be imposed. However, as ofSeptember 30, 2021 , two of our non-control/ non-affiliate investments,Engine Group, Inc. ("Engine") andUSC are valued at discounts to amortized cost of$27,369 and$96,818 , respectively.

We may from time to time seek to cancel or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved may be material. In addition, we may from time to time enter into additional debt facilities, increase the size of existing facilities or issue additional debt securities, including secured debt, unsecured debt and/or debt securities convertible into common stock. Any such purchases or exchanges of outstanding debt would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. Historically, we have funded a portion of our cash needs through borrowings from banks, issuances of senior securities, including secured, unsecured and convertible debt securities, or issuances of common equity. For flexibility, we maintain a universal shelf registration statement that allows for the public offering and sale of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, and warrants and units to purchase such securities up to an indeterminate amount. We may from time to time issue securities pursuant to the shelf registration statement or otherwise pursuant to private offerings. The issuance of debt or equity securities will depend on future market conditions, funding needs and other factors and there can be no assurance that any such issuance will occur or be successful. Each of our Convertible Notes,Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our "Unsecured Notes") are our general, unsecured obligations and rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to any of our subordinated indebtedness that may be issued in the future. The Unsecured Notes are effectively subordinated to our existing secured indebtedness, such as our credit facility, and future secured 118 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to any existing and future liabilities and other indebtedness of any of our subsidiaries. Revolving Credit Facility OnAugust 29, 2014 , we renegotiated our previous credit facility and closed an expanded five and a half year revolving credit facility (the "2014 Facility"). The lenders had extended commitments of$885,000 under the 2014 Facility as ofJune 30, 2018 . The 2014 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to$1,500,000 in the aggregate. Interest on borrowings under the 2014 Facility was one-month LIBOR plus 225 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charged a fee on the unused portion of the 2014 Facility equal to either 50 basis points if at least 35% of the credit facility was drawn or 100 basis points otherwise. OnAugust 1, 2018 , we renegotiated the 2014 Facility and closed an expanded five and a half year revolving credit facility (the "2018 Facility"). The lenders have extended commitments of$1,132,500 as ofJune 30, 2019 . The 2018 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to$1,500,000 in the aggregate. OnSeptember 9, 2019 , we amended the 2018 Facility and closed an expanded revolving credit facility (the "2019 Facility"). The lenders had extended commitments of$1,077,500 as ofMarch 31, 2021 . The 2019 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to$1,500,000 in the aggregate. OnApril 28, 2021 , we amended the 2019 Facility and closed an expanded five year revolving credit facility (the "2021 Facility" and collectively with the 2014 Facility, the 2018 Facility, and the 2019 Facility, the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The lenders had extended commitments of$1,277,500 as ofSeptember 30, 2021 . The 2021 Facility includes an accordion feature which allows commitments to be increased up to$1,500,000 in the aggregate. The Revolving Credit Facility matures onApril 27, 2026 . It includes a revolving period that extends throughApril 27, 2025 , followed by an additional one-year amortization period, with distributions allowed to Prospect after the completion of the revolving period. During such one-year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one-year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders. The Revolving Credit Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires the maintenance of a minimum liquidity requirement. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , we were in compliance with the applicable covenants. Interest on borrowings under the 2021 Facility is one-month LIBOR plus 205 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the credit facility equal to either 40 basis points if more than 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 70 basis points if more than 35% and an amount less than or equal to 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 150 basis points if an amount less than or equal to 35% of the credit facility is drawn. The 2021 Facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility. For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , the average stated interest rate (i.e., rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were as follows: Three Months Ended September

As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , the investments, including cash and cash equivalents, used as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility had an aggregate fair value of$1,871,007 , which represents 28.9% of our total investments, including cash and cash equivalents. These assets are held and owned by PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and, as such, these investments are not available to our general creditors. As additional eligible investments are transferred to PCF and pledged under the Revolving Credit Facility, PCF will generate additional availability up to the current commitment amount of$1,277,500 . The release of any assets from PCF requires the approval of the facility agent. 119 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In connection with the origination and amendments of the Revolving Credit Facility, we incurred$15,978 of new fees and$7,509 were carried over from the previous facilities, all of which are being amortized over the term of the facility in accordance with ASC 470-50.

If a holder converts the Convertible Notes after a record date for an interest payment but prior to the corresponding interest payment date, the holder will receive shares of our common stock based on the conversion formula described above, a cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest through the record date in the normal course and a separate cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest from the record date to the conversion date. No holder of Convertible Notes will be entitled to receive shares of our common stock upon conversion to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would cause such converting holder to become, directly or indirectly, a beneficial owner (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of more than 5.0% of the shares of our common stock outstanding at such time.

While we seek to maximize gains and minimize losses, our investments in portfolio companies can expose our capital to risks greater than those we may anticipate. These companies typically do not issue securities rated investment grade, and have limited resources, limited operating history, and concentrated product lines or customers. These are generally private companies with limited operating information available and are likely to depend on a small core of management talents. Changes in any of these factors can have a significant impact on the value of the portfolio company. These changes, along with those discussed in Investment Valuation above, can cause significant fluctuations in our net change in unrealized gains (losses) from investments, and therefore our net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations attributable to common stockholders, quarter over quarter. Investment Income We generate revenue in the form of interest income on the debt securities that we own, dividend income on any common or preferred stock that we own, and fees generated from the structuring of new deals. Our investments, if in the form of debt securities, will typically have a term of one to ten years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. To the extent achievable, we will seek to collateralize our investments by obtaining security interests in our portfolio companies' assets. We also may acquire minority or majority equity interests in our portfolio companies, which may pay cash or in-kind dividends on a recurring or otherwise negotiated basis. In addition, we may generate revenue in other forms including prepayment penalties and possibly consulting fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments are recognized as earned. Investment income consists of interest income, including accretion of loan origination fees and prepayment penalty fees, dividend income and other income, including settlement of net profits interests, overriding royalty interests and structuring fees. 128 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following table describes the various components of investment income and the related levels of debt investments:

The average interest earned on interest bearing performing assets increased from 9.59% for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2020 to 9.91% for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . The increase is primarily driven by an increase in interest income from early repayments causing an increase in accelerated income and prepayment premium income, and an increase due to originations in higher yielding investments, offset by a decrease in income from our structured credit investments due to lower future expected cash flows. The average interest earned on all interest bearing performing assets increased from 8.88% for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2020 to 9.45% for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . The increase is primarily due to decreases in non-accrual loans. Investment income is also generated from dividends and other income which is less predictable than interest income. The following table describes dividend income earned for the three and three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , respectively: Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 2020 Dividend income Nationwide Loan Company LLC $ 1,250 $ - Other, net 17 25 Total dividend income $ 1,267$ 25 129

These expenses include our allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement withProspect Administration under whichProspect Administration provides administrative services and facilities for us. Our investment advisory fees compensate the Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions.

The increase in total gross base management fee is directly related to an increase in average total assets. 130 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , we incurred$19,740 and$14,386 of income incentive fees, respectively. This increase was driven by a corresponding increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income from$71,931 for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2020 to$101,109 for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . No capital gains incentive fee has yet been incurred pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement. During the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , we incurred$28,038 and$34,049 respectively, of interest and credit facility expenses related to our Revolving Credit Facility, Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our "Notes"). These expenses are related directly to the leveraging capacity put into place for each of those periods and the levels of indebtedness actually undertaken in those periods. The table below describes the various expenses of our Notes and the related indicators of leveraging capacity and indebtedness during these years:

Interest expense decreased from$34,049 for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2020 to$28,038 for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . The weighted average stated interest rate on borrowings (excluding amortization, accretion and undrawn facility fees) decreased from 5.20% for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2020 to 4.26% for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , primarily due to redemptions of our Prospect Capital InterNotes®, as well as repurchases of our Convertible Notes,June 2024 Baby Bond andJune 2028 Baby Bond. In addition to Prospect Capital InterNotes®, the 2026 Notes and 3.364% 2026 Notes were issued this quarter at lower rates. The allocation of net overhead expense fromProspect Administration was$4,526 and$4,657 for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , respectively.Prospect Administration received estimated payments of$2,298 and$66 directly from our portfolio companies, and certain funds managed by the Investment Adviser for legal services during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , respectively. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the administrative services cost payable by us toProspect Administration .Had Prospect Administration not received these payments,Prospect Administration's charges for its administrative services would have increased by this amount. Total operating expenses, excluding investment advisory fees, interest and credit facility expenses, and allocation of overhead fromProspect Administration ("Other Operating Expenses"), net of any expense reimbursements, were$3,598 and$5,393 for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , respectively. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in general and administrative expenses and legal fees.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources OnJuly 27, 2017 , theFinancial Conduct Authority ("FCA") announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of the LIBOR rates after 2021 (the "FCA Announcement"). Furthermore, inthe United States , efforts to identify a set of alternativeU.S. dollar reference interest rates include proposals by theAlternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board ("ARRC") and theFederal Reserve Bank of New York . OnAugust 24, 2017 , theFederal Reserve Board requested public comment on a proposal by theFederal Reserve Bank of New York , in cooperation with theOffice of Financial Research , to produce three new reference rates intended to serve as alternatives to LIBOR. These alternative rates are based on overnight repurchase agreement transactions secured byU.S. Treasury Securities . OnDecember 12, 2017 , following consideration of public comments, theFederal Reserve Board concluded that the public would benefit if theFederal Reserve Bank of New York published the three proposed reference rates as alternatives to LIBOR (the "Federal Reserve Board Notice"). InApril 2018 , theFederal Reserve System , in conjunction with the ARRC, announced the replacement of LIBOR with a new index, calculated by short term repurchase agreements collateralized byU.S. Treasury securities, called the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). OnJune 12, 2019 , the Staff from theSEC's Division of Corporate Finance ,Division of Investment Management ,Division of Trading and Markets , andOffice of the Chief Accountant issued a statement about the potentially significant effects on financial markets and market participants when LIBOR is discontinued in 2021 and no longer available as a reference benchmark rate. The Staff encouraged all market participants to identify contracts that reference LIBOR and begin transitions to alternative rates. Although SOFR appears to be the preferred replacement rate forU.S. dollar LIBOR, at this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of any such changes, any establishment of alternative reference rates or other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted inthe United States ,United Kingdom or elsewhere or, whether the COVID-19 will have further effect on LIBOR transition plans. The elimination of LIBOR or any other changes or reforms to the determination or supervision of LIBOR could have an adverse impact on the market for or value of any LIBOR-linked securities, loans, and other financial obligations or extensions of credit held by or due to us or on our overall financial condition or results of operations. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of the FCA Announcement or other regulatory changes or announcements, any establishment of any alternative reference rates, including SOFR and its market acceptance, or any other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in theUnited Kingdom ,the United States or elsewhere. As such, the potential effect of any such event on our net investment income cannot yet be determined. The CLOs in which the Company is invested generally contemplate a scenario where LIBOR is no longer available by requiring the CLO administrator to calculate a replacement rate primarily through dealer polling on the applicable measurement date. However, there is uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of the dealer polling processes, including the willingness of banks to provide such quotations, which could adversely impact our net investment income. Recently, the CLOs we are invested in have included, or have been amended to include, language permitting the CLO investment manager to implement a market replacement rate (like SOFR) upon the occurrence of certain material disruption events. However, we cannot ensure that all CLOs in which we are invested will have such provisions, nor 133 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- can we ensure the CLO investment managers will undertake the suggested amendments when able. In addition, the effect of a phase out of LIBOR onU.S. senior secured loans, the underlying assets of the CLOs in which we invest, is currently unclear. To the extent that any replacement rate utilized for senior secured loans differs from that utilized for a CLO that holds those loans, the CLO would experience an interest rate mismatch between its assets and liabilities which could have an adverse impact on the Company's net investment income and portfolio returns. For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , our operating activities used$10,115 and provided$4,567 of cash, respectively. The change is primarily driven by net originations for the current quarter, which out-paced the cash components of net investment income. There were no investing activities for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 . Financing activities used$11,339 and$20,825 of cash during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 andSeptember 30, 2020 , respectively, which included dividend payments of$64,034 and$42,265 , respectively.
Our primary uses of funds have been to continue to invest in portfolio companies, through both debt and equity investments, repay outstanding borrowings and to make cash distributions to our stockholders.
Our primary sources of funds have historically been issuances of debt and equity. More recently, we have and may continue to fund a portion of our cash needs through repayments and opportunistic sales of our existing investment portfolio. We may also securitize a portion of our investments in unsecured or senior secured loans or other assets. Our objective is to put in place such borrowings in order to enable us to expand our portfolio. During the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , we borrowed$417,618 and we made repayments totaling$690,018 under the Revolving Credit Facility. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , our outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility was$84,537 . As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , we had, net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs,$213,253 outstanding on the Convertible Notes,$1,407,410 outstanding on the Public Notes and$373,350 outstanding on the Prospect Capital InterNotes® (See "Capitalization" above). Undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans to our portfolio companies incur commitment and unused fees ranging from 0.00% to 7.25%. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 andJune 30, 2021 , we had$41,564 and$67,385 , respectively, of undrawn revolver and delayed draw term loan commitments to our portfolio companies. The fair value of our undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans was zero as ofSeptember 30, 2021 andJune 30, 2021 . We have guaranteed$2,737 in standby letters of credit issued through a financial intermediary and$2,152 of equipment lease obligations on behalf ofInterDent, Inc. ("InterDent") as ofSeptember 30, 2021 . Under these arrangements, we would be required to make payments to the financial intermediary or equipment lease provider, respectively, if InterDent was to default on their related payment obligations. As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , we have not recorded a liability on the statement of assets and liabilities for these guarantees as the likelihood of default on the standby letters of credit or equipment lease is deemed to be remote. OnFebruary 13, 2020 , we filed a registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-236415) that was effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act as permitted under the Small Business Credit Availability Act. The registration statement permits us to issue, through one or more transactions, an indeterminate amount of securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, subscription rights to purchase our securities, warrants representing rights to purchase our securities or separately tradeable units combining two or more of our securities. Preferred Stock OnAugust 3, 2020 , we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement withPreferred Capital Securities, LLC ("PCS"), pursuant to which PCS has agreed to serve as the Company's agent, principal distributor and dealer manager for the Company's offering of up to 40,000,000 shares, par value$0.001 per share, of preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of$25.00 per share. Such preferred stock will initially be issued in multiple series, including the 5.50% Series A1 Preferred Stock ("Series A1 Preferred Stock"), the 5.50% Series M1 Preferred Stock ("Series M1 Preferred Stock"), and the 5.50% Series M2 Preferred Stock ("Series M2 Preferred Stock", and together with the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the "Series M Preferred Stock"). In connection with such offering, onAugust 3, 2020 , we filed Articles Supplementary with theState Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland ("SDAT"), reclassifying and designating 120,000,000 shares of the Company's authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as "Convertible Preferred Stock." OnOctober 30, 2020 , we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement withInspereX LLC , pursuant to whichInspereX LLC has agreed to serve as the Company's agent and dealer manager for the Company's offering of up to 10,000,000 shares, par value$0.001 per share, of 5.50% Series AA1 Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of$25.00 per share (the "Series AA1 Preferred Stock"). In connection with such offering, onOctober 30, 2020 , we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 20,000,000 shares of the Company's authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as Convertible Preferred Stock. OnMay 19, 2021 , we entered into an Underwriting Agreement withUBS Securities LLC , relating to the offer and sale of 187,000 shares, par value$0.001 per share, of 5.50% Series A2 Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of$25.00 per share (the "Series A2 Preferred Stock", and together with the Series A1 Preferred Stock, 134 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Series M1 Preferred Stock, Series M2 Preferred Stock and Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the "5.50% Preferred Stock"). The issuance of the Series A2 Preferred Stock settled onMay 26, 2021 . In connection with such offering, onMay 19, 2021 , we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 1,000,000 shares of the Company's authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as Convertible Preferred Stock. In connection with the offerings of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, we adopted and amended, respectively, a preferred stock dividend reinvestment plan (the "Preferred Stock Plan" or the "Preferred Stock DRIP"), pursuant to which holders of the 5.50% Preferred Stock will have dividends on their 5.50% Preferred Stock automatically reinvested in additional shares of such 5.50% Preferred Stock at a price per share of$25.00 , if they elect. Each series of 5.50% Preferred Stock ranks (with respect to the payment of dividends and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) (a) senior to our common stock, (b) on parity with each other series of our preferred stock, and (c) junior to our existing and future secured and unsecured indebtedness. See Note 8, Fair Value and Maturity of Debt Outstanding for further discussion on our senior securities. At any time prior to the listing of the 5.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange, shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder of the 5.50% Preferred Stock (the "Holder Optional Conversion"). We will settle any Holder Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of shares of our common stock over each of the five consecutive trading days ending on the Holder Conversion Exercise Date (such arithmetic average, the "5-day VWAP"). For the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series AA1 Preferred Stock, and the Series A2 Preferred Stock, "Settlement Amount" means (A)$25.00 per share (the "Stated Value"), plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable 5.50% Holder Optional Conversion Fee for the respective Holder Conversion Deadline. For the Series M Preferred Stock, "Settlement Amount" means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Series M Clawback, if any. "Series M Clawback", if applicable, means an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such share of Series M Stock in the three full months prior to the Holder Conversion Exercise Date. Subject to certain limited exceptions, we will not pay any portion of the Settlement Amount in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock has been issued. Beginning on the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock is issued, we may elect to settle all or a portion of any Holder Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. The right of holders to convert a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock will terminate upon the listing of such share on a national securities exchange. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, beginning on the earlier of the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock has been issued, or, for listed shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock, five years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued (the earlier of such dates, the "Redemption Eligibility Date"), such share of 5.50% Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time or from time to time at our option (the "Issuer Optional Redemption"), at a redemption price of 100% of the Stated Value of the shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption. Subject to certain limitations, each share of 5.50% Preferred Stock may be converted at our option (the "Issuer Optional Conversion"). We will settle any Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of theIOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the 5-day VWAP, subject to our ability to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value if the 5-day VWAP represents a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock. For the 5.50% Preferred Stock, "IOC Settlement Amount" means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for conversion. In connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value. If we do not have or obtain any required stockholder approval under the 1940 Act to sell our common stock below net asset value and the 5-day VWAP is at a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock, we will settle any conversions in connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the NAV per share of common stock at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date of conversion. We will not pay any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount from an Issuer Optional Conversion in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the Redemption Eligibility Date. Beginning on the Redemption Eligibility Date, we may elect to settle any Issuer Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. In the event that we exercise an Issuer Optional 135 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Conversion with respect to any shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock, the holder of such 5.50% Preferred Stock may instead elect a Holder Optional Conversion with respect to such 5.50% Preferred Stock provided that the date of conversion for such Holder Optional Conversion would occur prior to the date of conversion for an Issuer Optional Conversion. OnJuly 12, 2021 , we entered into an underwriting agreement by and among us,Prospect Capital Management L.P. ,Prospect Administration LLC , and Morgan Stanley & Co.LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC andUBS Securities LLC , as representatives of the underwriters, relating to the offer and sale of 6,000,000 shares, or$150,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our 5.35% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value$0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock" or "5.35% Preferred Stock"), at a public offering price of$25.00 per share. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock solely to cover over-allotments. The offer settled onJuly 19, 2021 , and no additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to the option. In connection with such offering, onJuly 15, 2021 , we filed Articles Supplementary with SDAT, reclassifying and designating 6,900,000 shares of the Company's authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock into shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock ranks (with respect to the payment of dividends and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) (a) senior to our common stock, (b) on parity with each other series of our preferred stock, and (c) junior to our existing and future secured and unsecured indebtedness. See Note 8, Fair Value and Maturity of Debt Outstanding for further discussion on our senior securities. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, at any time after the close of business onJuly 19, 2026 (any such date, an "Optional Redemption Date"), at our sole option, we may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in whole or, from time to time, in part, out of funds legally available for such redemption, at a price per share equal to the liquidation preference of$25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption. We may also redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at any time, in whole or, from time to time, in part, including prior to the Optional Redemption Date, pro rata, based on liquidation preference, with all other series of our then outstanding preferred stock, in the event that our Board determines to redeem any series of our preferred stock, in whole or, from time to time, in part, because such redemption is deemed necessary by the Board to comply with the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act or for us to maintain RIC status. In the event of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below), we may, at our option, exercise our special optional redemption right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred by paying the liquidation preference, plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the date fixed for such redemption. To the extent that we exercise our optional redemption right or our special optional redemption right relating to the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not be permitted to exercise the conversion right described below in respect of their shares called for redemption. Except to the extent that we have elected to exercise our optional redemption right or our special optional redemption right by providing notice of redemption prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date (as defined below), upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to convert some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of our shares of common stock per Series A Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the lesser of: •the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the sum of the Liquidation Preference per share plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion Date is after a Record Date for a Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment and prior to the corresponding Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividends will be included in this sum) by (ii) the Common Stock Price (as defined below); and •6.03865, subject to certain adjustments, subject, in each case, to provisions for the receipt of alternative consideration upon conversion as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If we have provided or provide a redemption notice with respect to some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock, holders of any Series A Preferred Stock that we have called for redemption will not be permitted to exercise their Change of Control Conversion Right in respect of any of their Series A Preferred Stock that have been called for redemption, and any Series A Preferred Stock subsequently called for redemption that have been tendered for conversion will be redeemed on the applicable date of redemption instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date. 136 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For purposes of the foregoing discussion of a redemption upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the following definitions are applicable: "Change of Control Triggering Event" means the occurrence of any of the following: •the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation and other than an Excluded Transaction) in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Controlled Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any "person" or "group" (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than to any Permitted Holders); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a pledge of assets pursuant to any of our secured debt instruments or the secured debt instruments of our Controlled Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be any such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or disposition; or •the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation and other than an Excluded Transaction) the result of which is that any "person" or "group" (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than any Permitted Holders) becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our outstanding Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consummation of any of the transactions referred to in the bullet points above will not be deemed a Change of Control Triggering Event if we or the acquiring or surviving consolidated entity has or continues to have a class of common securities (or ADRs representing such securities) listed on the NYSE, the NYSE American or NASDAQ, or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE American or NASDAQ, or is otherwise listed or quoted on a national securities exchange. The "Change of Control Conversion Date" is the date the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are to be converted, which will be a business day selected by us that is no fewer than 20 days nor more than 35 days after the date on which we provide the notice described above to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock. The "Common Stock Price" will be (i) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control Triggering Event by the holders of our common stock is solely cash, the amount of cash consideration per share of our common stock or (ii) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control Triggering Event by holders of our common stock is other than solely cash (x) the average of the closing sale prices per share of our common stock (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of the closing bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average closing bid and the average closing ask prices) for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control Triggering Event as reported on the principalU.S. securities exchange on which our common stock is then traded, or (y) the average of the last quoted bid prices for our common stock in the over-the-counter market as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc. or similar organization for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control Triggering Event, if our common stock is not then listed for trading on aU.S. securities exchange. "Controlled Subsidiary" means any of our subsidiaries, 50% or more of the outstanding equity interests of which are owned by us and our direct or indirect subsidiaries and of which we possess, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies, whether through the ownership of voting equity interests, by agreement or otherwise. "Excluded Transaction" means (i) any transaction that does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of all or substantially all of the outstanding shares of our Voting Stock; (ii) any changes resulting from a subdivision or combination or a change solely in par value; (iii) any transaction where the shares of our Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving "person" (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving "person" (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) immediately after giving effect to such transaction; (iv) any transaction if (A) we become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (B)(1) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of our Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (2) immediately following that transaction no "person" (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company; or (v) any transaction primarily for the purpose of changing our jurisdiction of incorporation or form of organization. "Permitted Holders" means (i) us, (ii) one or more of our Controlled Subsidiaries and (iii)Prospect Capital Management or any affiliate ofProspect Capital Management that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction located inthe United States of America and in the business of managing or advising clients. "Voting Stock" as applied to stock of any person, means shares, interests, participations or other equivalents in the equity interest (however designated) in such person having ordinary voting power for the election of the directors (or the equivalent) of such person, other than shares, interests, participations or other equivalents having such power only by reason of the occurrence of a contingency. 137 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Except as provided above in connection with a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities or property. For so long as the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, we will not exercise any option we have to convert any other series of our outstanding preferred stock to common stock, including the Issuer Optional Conversion, or any other security ranking junior to such preferred stock. As a result, and in accordance with ASC 480, we have presented both our 5.50% Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock within temporary equity on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as ofSeptember 30, 2021 . We determined the estimated value as ofSeptember 30, 2021 of our Preferred Stock, with a$25.00 stated value per share. We engaged a third-party valuation service to assist in our determination based on the calculation resulting from the total equity on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter endedSeptember 30, 2021 (the "Form 10-Q"), which was prepared in accordance withU.S. generally accepted accounting principles inthe United States of America , adjusted for the fair value of our investments (i.e. from our Consolidated Schedule of Investments) and total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our Preferred Stock outstanding. Based on this methodology and because the result from the calculation above is greater than the$25.00 per share stated value of our Preferred Stock, the estimated value of our Preferred Stock as ofSeptember 30, 2021 is$25.00 per share. Common Stock Our common stockholders' equity accounts as ofSeptember 30, 2021 andJune 30, 2021 reflect cumulative shares issued, net of shares repurchased, as of those respective dates. Our common stock has been issued through public offerings, a registered direct offering, the exercise of over-allotment options on the part of the underwriters, our dividend reinvestment plan and in connection with the acquisition of certain controlled portfolio companies. When our common stock is issued, the related offering expenses have been charged against paid-in capital in excess of par. All underwriting fees and offering expenses were borne by us. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2021 orSeptember 30, 2020 . Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As ofSeptember 30, 2021 , we did not have any off-balance sheet liabilities or other contractual obligations that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, other than those which originate from 1) the investment advisory and management agreement and the administration agreement and 2) the portfolio companies. Recent Developments OnOctober 8, 2021 , we commenced a tender offer to purchase for cash any and all of the$81,389 aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 6.375% 2024 Notes at a purchase price of$107.750 , plus accrued and unpaid interest (the "6.375% 2024 Notes October Tender Offer"). The 6.375% 2024 Notes October Tender Offer expired at5:00 p.m. ,New York City time, onOctober 15, 2021 . As of the settlement date,$149 aggregate principal amount of the 6.375% 2024 Notes were validly tendered and accepted. Following settlement of the 6.375% 2024 Notes October Tender Offer onOctober 20, 2021 , approximately$81,240 aggregate principal amount of the 6.375% 2024 Notes remains outstanding. OnOctober 18, 2021 , we provided a new$65,000 First Lien Term Loan investment, a new$22,609 Delayed Draw Term Loan commitment, and a new$4,239 Revolving Line of Credit commitment toBCPE Osprey Buyer, Inc. , a provider of marketplace and software solutions to hospitals and health systems. The Delayed Draw Term Loan and Revolving Line of Credit were unfunded at close. OnOctober 21, 2021 , we amended our investment inPeopleConnect Intermediate, LLC whereby we provided an incremental$60,775 Senior Secured Term Loan investment, purchased an additional$21,230 Senior Secured Term Loan investment from a third party, and eliminated our$8,918 unfunded revolving line of credit commitment. During the period fromOctober 21, 2021 throughOctober 27, 2021 , we received partial repayments of$83,581 of our Senior Secured Term Loan A outstanding with NPRC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. 138 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OnNovember 8, 2021 , we announced the declaration of monthly dividends for our 5.50% Preferred Stock for holders of record on the following dates based on an annual rate equal to 5.50% of the Stated Value of$25 per share as set forth in the Articles Supplementary for the Preferred Stock, from the date of issuance or, if later from the most recent dividend payment date (the first business day of the month, with no additional dividend accruing in January as a result), as follows:
