Oxford Lane Capital Corp.

May 8, 2020
To Our Stockholders:

We are pleased to submit to you the report of Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Fund” or “Oxford Lane”) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. The net asset value of our shares at that date was $3.58 per common share. The Fund’s common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market and its share price can differ from its net asset value. The Fund’s closing price at March 31, 2020 was $4.17, compared to $9.84 at March 31, 2019. The total return based on market value for Oxford Lane, for the year ended March 31, 2020, as reflected in the Fund’s financial highlights, was (48.71%). This return reflects the change in market price for the year ended March 31, 2020, as well as the impact of $1.62 per share in distributions declared and paid. The total return based on net asset value (“NAV”) for the year ended March 31, 2020, as reflected in the Fund’s financial highlights, was (37.50%). Please refer to “Note 12. Financial Highlights” for further details. On May 7, 2020, the last reported sale price of the Fund’s common stock was $3.33.

We note that there may be significant differences between Oxford Lane’s earnings prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and our taxable earnings, particularly related to collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) equity investments where our taxable earnings are based upon the distributable share of earnings as determined under tax regulations for each CLO equity investment, while GAAP earnings are based upon an effective yield calculation. Additionally, as our taxable earnings are not generally known until after our distributions are made; those distributions may represent a return of capital on a tax basis. While reportable GAAP revenue from our CLO equity investments for the year ended March 31, 2020 was approximately $116.5 million, we received or were entitled to receive approximately $165.1 million in distributions from our CLO equity investments.

Investment Review

The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of our investments depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the valuation of our investments.

The Fund’s investment objective is to maximize its portfolio’s risk-adjusted total return over its investment horizon. Our current focus is to seek that return by investing in equity and junior debt tranches of CLO vehicles(1), which are collateralized primarily by diverse portfolios of senior loans, which are senior secured loans made to companies whose debt is unrated or is rated below investment grade, and which generally have little to no exposure to real estate loans, mortgage loans or pools of consumer-based debt, such as credit card receivables or auto loans. Our investment strategy also includes investing in warehouse facilities, which are financing structures intended to aggregate senior loans that may be used to form the basis of a CLO vehicle. As of March 31, 2020, we held debt investments in 15 different CLO structures, and equity investments in approximately 120 different CLO structures.

Structurally, CLO vehicles are entities formed to originate and manage a portfolio of loans. The loans within a CLO vehicle are limited to those which, on an aggregated basis, have met established credit criteria and are subject to concentration limitations in order to limit a CLO vehicle’s exposure to a single credit or industry.

An investment in our Fund carries with it a significant number of meaningful risks, certain of which are discussed in the notes to our financial statements. Investors should read “Note 13. Risks and Uncertainties” carefully.

____________

1. A CLO vehicle is formed by issuing various classes or “tranches” of debt (with the most senior tranches being rated “AAA” to the most junior tranches typically being rated “BB” or “B”) and equity. The tranches of CLO vehicles rated “BB” or “B” may be referred to as “junk.” The equity of a CLO vehicle is generally structured to absorb the CLO’s losses before any of the CLO’s debt tranches, and it also has the lowest level of payment priority among the CLO’s tranches; therefore, the equity is typically the riskiest tranche of a CLO vehicle.

Investment Outlook

Periods of market volatility have occurred and could continue to occur in response to pandemics or other events outside of our control. These types of events have adversely affected and could continue to adversely affect operating results for us and for our investments in CLOs and their underlying collateral. For example, in December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (also known as “COVID-19”) surfaced in China and has since spread to other countries, including the United States, which has resulted in restrictions on travel and the temporary closure of many corporate offices, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities and factories in the affected jurisdictions, including the United States. In addition to these developments having adverse consequences for us and our investments in CLOs and their underlying collateral, those investments and their collateral have been and could continue to be, adversely impacted, including through quarantine measures and travel restrictions imposed on their personnel or service providers based or temporarily located in affected countries, including the United States, or any related health issues of such personnel or service providers. The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of our investments depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the valuation of our investments. As the potential duration of the impact of COVID-19 is difficult to predict, the extent to which COVID-19 will negatively affect the Fund’s investments and operating results or the duration of any potential business or supply-chain disruption, is uncertain. The extent and duration of the impact to our results of operations will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that will emerge regarding the duration and severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control.

The U.S. capital markets have experienced volatility and disruption following the global outbreak of COVID-19 that began in December 2019. Some economists and major investment banks have expressed concern that the continued spread of the virus globally could lead to a world-wide economic downturn. Disruptions in the capital markets have increased the spread between the yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets. These and future market disruptions and/or illiquidity would be expected to have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Unfavorable economic conditions also would be expected to increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to the Fund. These events could affect our ability to repay our indebtedness when due, limit our investment purchases, limit the Fund’s ability to grow and have a negative impact on the Fund’s operating results and the fair values of our CLO debt and CLO equity investments.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2020

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (“OXLC,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Fund”) was incorporated under the General Corporation Laws of the State of Maryland on June 9, 2010. The Fund is a non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, the Fund has elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Fund’s investment objective is to maximize its portfolio’s risk adjusted total return, and it currently seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in structured finance investments, specifically the equity and junior debt tranches of collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) vehicles, which are collateralized primarily by a diverse portfolio of senior secured loans made to companies whose debt is unrated or is rated below investment grade (the “Senior Loans”), and which generally have very little or no exposure to real estate loans, or mortgage loans or to pools of consumer-based debt, such as credit card receivables or auto loans. OXLC’s investment activities are managed by Oxford Lane Management, LLC (“OXLC Management”), a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act.”) Oxford Funds, LLC (“Oxford Funds”), is the managing member of OXLC Management and serves as the administrator of OXLC. Under the investment advisory agreement with OXLC Management (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), OXLC has agreed to pay OXLC Management an annual base management fee based on gross assets as well as an incentive fee based on its performance. For further detail please refer to “Note 4. Related Party Transactions.”

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), include the accounts of the Fund. The Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. Certain prior period figures have been reclassified from those originally published on Form N-CSR to conform to the current period presentation for comparative purposes. The Fund maintains its accounting records in U.S. dollars.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

In the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and provide indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based upon experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and cash held in a money market fund which contain investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Fund places its cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in bank accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limit. Cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 assets and are included on the Fund’s Schedule of Investments. Cash equivalents are carried at cost or amortized cost which approximates fair value.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

INVESTMENT VALUATION

The Fund determines the fair values of its investment portfolio in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Estimates made in the preparation of OXLC’s financial statements include the valuation of investments and the related amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded. OXLC believes that there is no single definitive method for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments OXLC makes. OXLC is required to specifically fair value each individual investment on a quarterly basis.

ASC 820-10 clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. OXLC considers the attributes of current market conditions on an ongoing basis and has determined that due to the general illiquidity of the market for its investment portfolio, whereby little or no market data exists.

Collateralized Loan Obligations — Debt and Equity

OXLC has acquired debt and equity positions in CLO investment vehicles. These investments are special purpose financing vehicles. In valuing such investments, OXLC considers the indicative prices provided by a recognized industry pricing service as a primary source, and the implied yield of such prices, supplemented by actual trades executed in the market at or around period-end, as well as the indicative prices provided by the broker who arranges transactions in such investment vehicles. OXLC also considers those instances in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on or before the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require a downward adjustment to the indicative price representing substantially all of the pending distribution. Additional factors include any available information on other relevant transactions, including firm bids and offers in the market and information resulting from bids-wanted-in-competition. In addition, OXLC considers the operating metrics of the specific investment vehicle, including compliance with collateralization tests, defaulted and restructured securities, and payment defaults, if any. In periods of illiquidity and volatility, the Fund may rely more heavily on other metrics, including but not limited to, the collateral manager, time left in the reinvestment period, expected cash flows and overcollateralization ratios, instead of the Fund’s generated valuation yields. OXLC Management or the Fund’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) may elect to engage third-party valuation firms to provide assistance to our Valuation Committee and Board of Directors in valuing certain of our investments, including, but not limited to, when requested by the Board of Directors or OXLC Management. If a third-party valuation firm is engaged by the Fund, it will provide the Board of Directors with a written report with respect to each investment it has reviewed. The Valuation Committee will evaluate the impact of such additional information, and factor it into its consideration of fair value.

Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase

The Fund has entered into an agreement whereby it sold securities to be repurchased at an agreed-upon price and date. Under this agreement, the Fund accounts for this transaction as a collateralized financing transaction which is recorded at the contracted repurchase amount plus interest. The Fund’s securities sold under the agreement to repurchase are carried at cost. Refer to “Note 8. Borrowings Related to Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase” for further details.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

SHARE REPURCHASES

From time to time, the Board of Directors may authorize a share repurchase program under which shares of the Fund’s common stock are purchased in open market transactions. Since the Fund is incorporated in the State of Maryland, state law requires share repurchases to be accounted for as a share retirement. The cost of repurchased shares is charged against capital on the settlement date. There was no share repurchase program authorized for the year ended March 31, 2020.

PREFERRED STOCK

The Fund carries its mandatorily redeemable preferred stock at accreted cost on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and not fair value. Refer to “Note 7. Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock” for further details.

PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER ASSETS

Prepaid expenses and other assets generally consists primarily of insurance costs.

INVESTMENT INCOME

Income from securitization vehicles and investments

Income from investments in the equity class securities of CLO vehicles (typically income notes or subordinated notes) is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC 325-40 Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, based upon estimated cash flows, their expected timing, and expected redemption, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. The Fund monitors the expected residual payments, and effective yield is determined and updated periodically, as needed. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from both the tax-basis investment income and from the cash distributions actually received by the Fund during the period.

Interest Income — Debt Investments

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis using the contractual rate applicable to each debt investment and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.

Generally, if the Fund does not expect the borrower to be able to service its debt and other obligations, the Fund will, on a discretionary basis, place the debt instrument on non-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Fund generally restores non-accrual loans to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in the Fund’s judgment, the payments are likely to remain current. As of March 31, 2020, the Fund had no non-accrual investments in its portfolio.

Other Income

Other income includes distributions from fee letters and success fees associated with portfolio investments. Distributions from fee letters are based upon a percentage of the collateral manager’s fees, and are recorded as other income when earned. The Fund may also earn success fees associated with its investments in CLO warehouse facilities, which are contingent upon a repayment of the warehouse by a permanent CLO securitization structure; such fees are earned and recognized when the repayment is completed.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The Fund intends to operate so as to continue to qualify to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and, as such, to not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of its taxable income and gains distributed to stockholders. To qualify for RIC tax treatment, OXLC is required to distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code.

Because U.S. federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in the Fund’s fiscal 2020 tax returns. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S Federal and Connecticut State. The Fund is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next six months.

Distributions

Our distribution policy is based upon our estimate of our taxable net investment income, which includes actual distributions from our CLO equity class investments, with further consideration given to our realized gains or losses on a taxable basis. Distributions from net investment income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which differ from GAAP. Distributions from net investment income, if any, are expected to be declared quarterly and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, unless offset by any available capital loss carry-forward, are typically distributed to stockholders annually. Distributions to stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are automatically reinvested in full and fractional shares of the Fund in accordance with the Fund’s distribution reinvestment plan, unless the stockholder has elected to have them paid in cash.

Amounts required to be distributed reflect estimates made by the Fund. Distributions paid by the Fund in accordance with RIC requirements are subject to re-characterization for tax purposes.

SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

Securities transactions are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are recorded on the basis of specific identification. An optional redemption (“optionally redeemed”) feature of a CLO allows a majority of the holders of the equity securities issued by the CLO issuer, after the end of a specified non-call period, to cause the redemption of the secured notes issued by the CLO with proceeds paid either through the liquidation of the CLO’s assets or through a refinancing with new debt. The optional redemption is effectively a voluntary prepayment of the secured debt issued by the CLO prior to the stated maturity of such debt. Distributions received on CLO equity investments where the optional redemption feature has been exercised are first applied to the remaining cost basis until it is reduced to zero, after which distributions are recorded as realized gains.

DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS ON COMMON STOCK

Deferred offering costs on common stock consist of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration and public offer and sale of the Fund’s common stock, including legal, accounting and printing fees. These costs are deferred at the time of incurrence and are subsequently charged as a reduction to capital when the offering takes place or as shares are issued. Deferred costs are periodically reviewed and expensed if the related registration statement is no longer active or if the offering is unsuccessful.

DEFERRED ISSUANCE COSTS ON MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

Deferred issuance costs on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock consist of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of preferred stock offerings, and are capitalized at the time of payment. These costs are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the respective preferred stock series. This amortization expense is included in interest expense in the Fund’s financial statements. Upon early termination of preferred stock, the remaining balance of unamortized fees related to such debt is accelerated into realized loss on redemption of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock on the Fund’s Statement of Operations. Deferred issuance costs are presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a direct deduction from the related series of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.

____________

(1) The Fund generally uses non-binding indicative bid prices (“NBIB”) provided by an independent pricing service or broker on or near the valuation date as the primary basis for the fair value determinations for CLO debt and equity investments, which may be adjusted for pending equity distributions as of the valuation date. These prices are non-binding, and may not be determinative of fair value. Each price is evaluated by the Board of Directors in conjunction with additional information compiled by OXLC Management, including performance and covenant compliance information as provided by the independent trustee.

(2) The Fund will calculate the fair value of CLO equity side letters based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle.

(3) Weighted averages are calculated based on fair value of investments.

(4) The impact on fair value measurement of an increase in each unobservable input is in isolation. The discount rate is the rate used to discount future cash flows in a discounted cash flow calculation. An increase in discount rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in a fair value measurement. Significant increases or decreases in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation may result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

(5) The fair value of those CLO equity positions which have been optionally redeemed are generally valued using a liquidation net asset value basis which represents the estimated expected residual value of the CLO as of the end of the period.

(6) Represents a single investment fair value position, and therefore the range/weighted average is not applicable.

There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during the year ended March 31, 2020.

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Effective September 9, 2010, the Fund entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with OXLC Management, a registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act. Oxford Funds is the managing member of OXLC Management and serves as the administrator of OXLC.

Effective September 9, 2010, the Fund entered into an agreement (“Administration Agreement”) with Oxford Funds to serve as its administrator. Under the Administration Agreement, Oxford Funds performs, or oversees the performance of, the Fund’s required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records which the Fund is required to maintain and for preparation of the reports to the Fund’s stockholders.

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund has agreed to pay OXLC Management a fee for advisory and management services consisting of two components — a base management fee (or “Investment Advisory Fee”) and an incentive fee.

The Investment Advisory Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2.00% of the Fund’s gross assets. For services rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the investment advisory fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The investment advisory fee is calculated based on the average value of the Fund’s gross assets, at the end of the two most

OXFORD LANE CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

recently completed calendar quarters, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter. Investment advisory fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately pro-rated. For the year ended March 31, 2020, the Fund recognized an investment advisory fee expense of approximately $12.5 million. At March 31, 2020, the Fund had an investment advisory fee payable of approximately $3.1 million.

The incentive fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means income from securitization vehicles and investments, interest income from debt investments and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that are received from an investment) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Fund’s operating expenses for the quarter (including the Investment Advisory Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement to Oxford Funds, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes accrued income that OXLC has not yet received in cash, such as the amount of any market discount it may accrete on debt instruments purchased below par value. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized or unrealized capital gains or losses, and the Fund could incur incentive fees in periods when there is a net decrease in net assets from operations. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a hurdle of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized). For such purposes, the Fund’s quarterly rate of return is determined by dividing its pre-incentive net investment income by its reported net assets as of the prior period end. OXLC’s pre-incentive fee net investment income used to calculate the incentive fee is also included in the amount of its gross assets used to calculate the 2.00% Investment Advisory Fee. The Fund pays OXLC Management an incentive fee with respect to the Fund’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

• No incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which the Fund’s pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle of 1.75%;

• 100% of pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized). The Fund refers to this portion of the pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle but is less than 2.1875%) as the “catch-up”. The “catch-up” is meant to provide the investment adviser with 20% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle did not apply if the net investment income exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter; and

• 20% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized) is payable to OXLC Management (once the hurdle is reached and the “catch-up” is achieved, 20% of all pre-incentive fee net investment income thereafter is allocated to OXLC Management).

There is no offset in subsequent quarters for any quarter in which an incentive fee is not earned. For the year ended March 31, 2020, the Fund recognized incentive fee expense of approximately $18.2 million. At March 31, 2020, the Fund had an incentive fee payable of approximately $5.1 million.

Oxford Funds assists the Fund in determining and publishing the Fund’s net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of the Fund’s tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Fund’s stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of the Fund’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Fund by others. Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an amount based upon the Fund’s allocable portion of Oxford Funds’ overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, and the Fund’s allocable portion of the compensation of the Fund’s chief financial officer and any administrative support staff, including accounting personnel. Other expenses that are paid by the Fund include legal, compliance, audit and tax services, market data services, excise taxes, if any, and

miscellaneous office expenses. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. The costs associated with the functions performed by OXLC’s chief compliance officer are paid indirectly by the Fund pursuant to the terms of an agreement between the Fund and Alaric Compliance Services, LLC.

Independent directors receive an annual fee of $90,000. In addition, the independent directors receive $2,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Board of Directors meeting, $1,500 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Valuation Committee meeting and $1,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Audit Committee meeting. The Chairman of the Audit Committee also receives an additional annual fee of $10,000. No compensation is paid to directors who are interested persons of the Fund as defined in the 1940 Act.

Certain directors, officers and other related parties, including members of OXLC Management, owned, directly or indirectly, an aggregate 1.0% of the common stock of the Fund at March 31, 2020.

Co-Investment Exemptive Relief

On June 14, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued an order permitting OXLC and certain of its affiliates to complete negotiated co-investment transactions in portfolio companies, subject to certain conditions (the “Order”). Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions to the Order, OXLC and certain of its affiliates are now permitted, together with any future business development companies, registered closed-end funds and certain private funds, each of whose investment adviser is OXLC’s investment adviser or an investment adviser controlling, controlled by, or under common control with OXLC’s investment adviser, to co-invest in negotiated investment opportunities where doing so would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act, providing OXLC’s stockholders with access to a broader array of investment opportunities.

Pursuant to the Order, OXLC is permitted to co-invest in such investment opportunities with its affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of its independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including, but not limited to, that (1) the terms of the potential co-investment transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to OXLC and its stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of OXLC or its stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the potential co-investment transaction is consistent with the interests of OXLC’s stockholders and is consistent with OXLC’s then-current investment objective and strategies.

NOTE 5. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Fund places its cash in an overnight money market account and, at times, cash and cash equivalents may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit. In addition, the Fund’s portfolio may be concentrated in a limited number of investments, which will subject the Fund to a risk of significant loss if any of these investments defaults on its obligations if those sectors experience a market downturn.

NOTE 6. DISTRIBUTIONS

For the year ended March 31, 2020, the Fund declared and paid distributions on common stock of $1.62 per share, or $95,463,563. The Fund declared and paid distributions on common stock of $1.62 per share, or $57,014,731, for the year ended March 31, 2019. The tax character of distributions paid for the year ended March 31, 2020 represented, on an estimated basis, $58,147,135 from ordinary income and $37,316,428 from tax return of capital. For the year ended March 31, 2020, the amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates. The tax character of distributions paid for the year ended March 31, 2019 represented, on an estimated basis, $47,264,503 from ordinary income and $9,750,228 from tax return of capital. The ultimate tax character of

distributions is unknown until our tax return is filed. For the years ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 the Fund also declared and paid dividends on preferred stock of $12,046,376 and $11,385,890, respectively. The tax character of distributions paid on preferred stock represented ordinary income.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Fund had available $44,137,294 of long-term capital losses, which can be used to offset future capital gains. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Fund did not utilize its capital loss carryforward. Under the current law, capital losses related to securities realized after October 31 and prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be deferred as occurring the first day of the following fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Fund had no losses to defer.

As of March 31, 2020, the estimated components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

Distributable ordinary income	$	—
Distributable long-term capital gains (capital loss carry forward)		(44,137,294	)
Unrealized depreciation on investments*		410,578,390
Other timing differences		(5,750	)

____________

* The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized gains/(losses) is due to the Fund’s CLO equity investments.

As of March 31, 2020, the effect of permanent “book/tax” reclassifications resulted in the following increase/(decrease) to the components of net assets:

Accumulated Net Investment Income	$	5,749,840
Accumulated Capital Gain		8,492,814
Paid-In-Capital		(14,242,654	)

These differences are primarily due to the CLO equity investments, prior year adjustments, and acceleration of unamortized deferred issuance costs on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.

As of March 31, 2020, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for tax purposes was $2,592,991, and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation was $413,171,381. For tax purposes, the cost basis of the portfolio investments at March 31, 2020 was $918,960,567.

NOTE 7. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

The Fund has authorized 50 million shares of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, at a par value of $0.01 per share, and had 8,809,416 shares issued and outstanding at March 31, 2020. Since 2012 and through March 10, 2020, the Fund completed underwritten public offerings of its 7.50% Series 2023 Term Preferred Shares (the “Series 2023 Shares”); 6.75% Series 2024 Term Preferred Shares (the “Series 2024 Shares”); and 6.25% Series 2027 Term Preferred Shares (the “Series 2027 Shares”), collectively the “Term Preferred Shares” or “Term Shares”. The Fund is required to redeem all of the outstanding Term Preferred Shares on their respective redemption dates, at a redemption price equal to $25 per share plus an amount equal to accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, to the date of the redemption. OXLC cannot effect any amendment, alteration, or repeal of the Fund’s obligation to redeem all of the Term Shares without the prior unanimous vote or consent of the holders of such Term Shares. At any time on or after the optional redemption date, at the Fund’s sole option, the Fund may redeem the Term Shares at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of the $25 liquidation preference per share plus an amount equal to accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, on such Term Shares. The Fund, with the authorization by the Board

of Directors, may repurchase any of the Term Preferred Shares from time to time in the open market and effectively extinguish the debt. As of March 31, 2020 there were no accumulated but unpaid dividends on our Term Preferred Shares.

On February 11, 2020, the Fund completed an underwritten public offering of 3,500,000 shares of its newly designated Series 2027 Shares at a public offering price of $25 per share, raising approximately $87.5 million in gross proceeds. The Fund also granted the underwriters a 30-day over-allotment option to purchase additional shares of its Series 2027 Shares on the same terms and conditions to cover over-allotments, if any. On March 10, 2020, under this 30-day over-allotment option, the Fund issued 164,000 shares, raising $4.1 million in gross proceeds. The Series 2027 Shares are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market and trade under the symbol “OXLCP”.

On March 12, 2020 (the “Redemption Date”), the Fund redeemed 1,200,000 of the issued and outstanding shares of the Fund’s Series 2023 Shares for a redemption price of $25 per share plus $0.05729167 in accrued but unpaid dividends per Share to the Redemption Date, for an aggregate redemption price of $25.05729167 per share. In connection with the March 12, 2020 redemption, the Fund incurred losses of approximately $1.5 million, which consisted of accelerated deferred issuance costs and accelerated original issue discount. These accelerated costs are recorded within net realized loss on the redemption of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund’s Term Preferred Share activity for the year ended March 31, 2020, was as follows:

NOTE 8. BORROWINGS RELATED TO SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENT TO REPURCHASE

On January 2, 2018, the Fund entered into a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”) with Nomura Securities International, Inc. (“Nomura”). Pursuant to the MRA and a transaction confirmation, The Fund entered into a repurchase transaction (the “Repo”) with Nomura pursuant to which the Fund sold CLO securities to Nomura with a market value of approximately $106.2 million, at January 2, 2018, for a purchase price of approximately $42.5 million. At the end of the Repo term, the Fund is obligated to repurchase those securities from Nomura, and Nomura is obligated to sell the securities to the Fund, for the original purchase price of $42.5 million plus accrued but unpaid funding costs. The Repo had a nine-month term, from trade date, that may be extended by mutual

agreement. The Repo has a funding cost of 3-month LIBOR plus 3.15 percent per annum, which may be adjusted in the event of an extension of the Repo term. On October 11, 2018, the MRA was amended and restated to extend the Repo term. Under this agreement, the term of the Repo was extended until July 2, 2019. On May 1, 2019, the Fund amended the Repo with Nomura to (i) extend the maturity date of the Repo from July 2, 2019 to January 2, 2020, and (ii) reduce the funding cost of the Repo from 3-month LIBOR plus 3.15% per annum to 3-month LIBOR plus 2.90% per annum effective as of July 2, 2019. The Repo was partially paid down on May 15, 2019 from $42,493,500 to $35,000,000. The partial pay down on May 15, 2019 occurred with the Fund purchasing the securities within the Repo from Nomura at a price of $42,493,500 and selling the same securities to Nomura at a price of $35,000,000, the net effect being a $7,493,500 pay down of the Repo. On August 15, 2019, the Nomura Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date of the Repo from January 2, 2020 to April 2, 2020. On November 4, 2019, in light of market conditions, we elected to post additional collateral with a market value of approximately $8.2 million. On December 26, 2019, we amended the Nomura Agreement to extend the maturity date of the Repo from April 2, 2020 to October 2, 2020 and sold CLO securities to Nomura with a market value of approximately $50.0 million, resulting in an increase in the maximum facility size of the Repo from $35.0 million to $50.0 million. On March 17, 2020, in light of market conditions, we elected to post additional collateral with a market value of approximately $20.9 million. In addition, the Repo was partially paid down on March 30, 2020 from $50,000,000 to $40,000,000. The Fund treats the transaction as a secured financing for financial reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP.

Pursuant to the terms of the MRA with Nomura, the Fund had an interest payable of approximately $9,500 as of March 31, 2020. In connection with the Repo funding costs, the Fund recognized interest expense of approximately $2.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2020.

On October 18, 2019, the Fund entered into a $12.5 million repurchase transaction facility (the “Repo Facility”) with Nomura. Pursuant to the MRA and a transaction facility confirmation, the Fund may sell securities to Nomura from time to time with a corresponding repurchase obligation at an agreed-upon price 30 to 60 days after the sale date (“Reverse Repo”). The Repo Facility has a funding cost of 1-month LIBOR plus 2.05% per annum for each Reverse Repo transaction and is subject to a facility fee of 0.85% per annum on the full $12.5 million facility amount. The Repo Facility expires on October 18, 2020, subject to optional termination or extension that is mutually agreed. The Fund accounts for these Reverse Repo transactions as secured financings for financial reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. As of March 31, 2020, there was no outstanding principal, or securities sold under the Repo Facility. The Fund had as interest payable approximately $4,100 in undrawn fees as of March 31, 2020. The Fund recognized interest expense of approximately $49,000 for the year ended March 31, 2020.

(2) Net realized and unrealized capital gains and losses based upon average shares outstanding include adjustments to reconcile change in net asset value per share.

(3) Management monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a tax return of capital may occur for the period. To the extent the Fund’s taxable earnings fall below the total amount of the Fund’s distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to the Fund’s stockholders. The ultimate tax character of the Fund’s earnings cannot be determined until tax returns are prepared after the end of the fiscal year. The information provided is based on estimates available at each respective fiscal year end, see “Note 6. Distributions”.

(4) Total return based on market value is calculated assuming that shares of the Fund’s common stock were purchased at the market price as of the beginning of the period, and that distribution, capital gains and other distributions were reinvested as provided for in the Fund’s distribution reinvestment plan, excluding any discounts, and that the total number of shares were sold at the closing market price per share on the last day of the period. The computation does not reflect any sales commission investors may incur in purchasing or selling shares of the Fund.

(5) Total return based on net asset value (“NAV”) is the change in ending NAV per share plus distributions per share paid during the period assuming participation in the Fund’s distribution reinvestment plan divided by the beginning NAV per share.

(6) Portfolio turnover rate is calculated using the lesser of the year-to-date purchases or sales and repayments of investments divided by the monthly average of the fair value of total investments. Excluded from both numerator and denominator is the fair value of all investments whose maturity date was one year or less.

NOTE 13. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Periods of market volatility have occurred and could continue to occur in response to pandemics or other events outside of our control. These types of events have adversely affected and could continue to adversely affect operating results for the Fund and for our investments in CLOs and their underlying collateral. For example, in December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (also known as “COVID-19”) surfaced in China and has since spread to other countries, including the United States, which has resulted in restrictions on travel and the temporary closure of many corporate offices, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities and factories in the affected jurisdictions, including the United States. In addition to these developments having adverse consequences for the Fund and its investments in CLOs and their underlying collateral, those investments and their collateral have been and could continue to be, adversely impacted, including through quarantine measures and travel restrictions imposed on their personnel or service providers based or temporarily located in affected countries, including the United States, or any related health issues of such personnel or service providers. The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the Fund’s investments depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the valuation of our investments. As the duration of the impact of COVID-19 is difficult to predict, the extent to which COVID-19 will negatively affect the Fund’s investments and operating results or the duration of any potential business or supply-chain disruption, is uncertain. The extent and duration of the impact to the Fund’s results of operations will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that will emerge regarding the duration and severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, all of which are beyond the Fund’s control.

The U.S. capital markets have experienced volatility and disruption following the global outbreak of COVID-19 that began in December 2019. Some economists and major investment banks have expressed concern that the continued spread of the virus globally could lead to a world-wide economic downturn. Disruptions in the capital markets have increased the spread between the yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets. These and future market disruptions and/or illiquidity would be expected to have an adverse effect on the Fund’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Unfavorable economic conditions also would be expected to increase the Fund’s funding costs, limit its access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to the Fund. These events could affect the Fund’s ability to repay indebtedness when due, limit its investment purchases, limit the Fund’s ability to grow and have a negative impact on the Fund’s operating results and the fair values of our CLO debt and CLO equity investments.

OXLC Management’s investment team also presently manages the portfolios of Oxford Square Capital Corp., a publicly-traded business development company that invests principally in the debt of U.S.-based companies and CLOs. Additionally, OXLC Management’s investment team manages the portfolio of Oxford Bridge, LLC, Oxford Bridge II, LLC, and Oxford Gate Master Fund, LLC, limited liability companies that invest principally in the equity of CLOs. In certain instances, the Fund may co-invest on a concurrent basis with affiliates of its investment adviser, subject to compliance with applicable regulations and regulatory guidance and our written allocation policies. On June 14, 2017, the SEC issued the Order permitting us and certain of our affiliates to

OXFORD LANE CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2020

NOTE 13. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES (cont.)

complete negotiated co-investment transactions in portfolio companies, subject to certain conditions. Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions to the Order, we and certain of our affiliates are now permitted, together with any future business development companies, registered closed-end funds and certain private funds, each of whose investment adviser is our investment adviser or an investment adviser controlling, controlled by, or under common control with our investment adviser, to co-invest in negotiated investment opportunities where doing so would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act, providing our stockholders with access to a broader array of investment opportunities. Pursuant to the Order, we are permitted to co-invest in such investment opportunities with our affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including, but not limited to, that (1) the terms of the potential co-investment transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the potential co-investment transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our then-current investment objective and strategies.

Given the structure of the Fund’s Investment Advisory Agreement with OXLC Management, any general increase in interest rates will likely have the effect of making it easier for OXLC Management to meet the quarterly hurdle rate for payment of net investment income incentive fees under the Investment Advisory Agreement without any additional increase in relative performance on the part of the Fund’s investment adviser. In addition, in view of the catch-up provision applicable to income incentive fees under the Investment Advisory Agreement, OXLC Management could potentially receive a significant portion of the increase in the Fund’s investment income attributable to such a general increase in interest rates. If that were to occur, the Fund’s increase in net earnings, if any, would likely be significantly smaller than the relative increase in OXLC Management’s net investment income incentive fee resulting from such a general increase in interest rates.

The Fund’s portfolio consists of equity and junior debt investments in CLO vehicles, which involve a number of significant risks. CLO vehicles are typically highly levered, and therefore the junior debt and equity tranches that the Fund invests in are subject to a higher degree of risk of total loss. As of March 31, 2020, the CLO vehicles in which the Fund was invested had average leverage of 10.2 times and ranged from approximately 4.0 times to 14.5 times levered. In particular, investors in CLO vehicles indirectly bear risks of the underlying debt investments held by such CLO vehicles.

The Fund generally has the right to receive payments only from the CLO vehicles, and generally does not have direct rights against the underlying borrowers or the entity that sponsored the CLO vehicle. While the CLO vehicles the Fund targets generally enable the investor to acquire interests in a pool of senior loans without the expenses associated with directly holding the same investments, the Fund generally pays a proportionate share of the CLO vehicles’ administrative and other expenses. Although it is difficult to predict whether the prices of indices and securities underlying CLO vehicles will rise or fall, these prices (and, therefore, the prices of the CLO vehicles) will be influenced by the same types of political and economic events that affect issuers of securities and capital markets generally. The failure by a CLO vehicle in which we invest to satisfy certain financial covenants, including with respect to adequate collateralization and/or interest coverage tests, could lead to a reduction in its payments to us. In the event that a CLO vehicle fails certain tests, holders of debt senior to us may be entitled to additional payments that would, in turn, reduce the payments we would otherwise be entitled to receive. Separately, OXLC may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms with a defaulting CLO vehicle or any other investment we may make. If any of these occur, it could materially and adversely affect the Fund’s operating results and cash flows.

The interests the Fund has acquired in CLO vehicles are generally thinly traded or have only a limited trading market. CLO vehicles are typically privately offered and sold, even in the secondary market. As a result, investments in CLO vehicles may be characterized as illiquid securities. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in debt securities, CLO vehicles carry additional risks, including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of

OXFORD LANE CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2020

NOTE 13. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES (cont.)

the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the fact that the Fund’s investments in CLO tranches will likely be subordinate to other senior classes of note tranches thereof; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the CLO vehicle or unexpected investment results. The Fund’s net asset value may also decline over time if the Fund’s principal recovery with respect to CLO equity investments is less than the price that the Fund paid for those investments.

Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act added a provision to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), requiring the seller, sponsor or securitizer of a securitization vehicle to retain no less than five percent of the credit risk in assets it sells into a securitization and prohibiting such securitizer from directly or indirectly hedging or otherwise transferring the retained credit risk. The responsible federal agencies adopted final rules implementing these restrictions on October 22, 2014. The risk retention rules became effective with respect to CLOs two years after publication in the Federal Register. Under the final rules, the asset manager of a CLO is considered the sponsor of a securitization vehicle and is required to retain five percent of the credit risk in the CLO, which may be retained horizontally in the equity tranche of the CLO or vertically as a five percent interest in each tranche of the securities issued by the CLO.

Although the final rules contain an exemption from such requirements for the asset manager of a CLO if, among other things, the originator or lead arranger of all of the loans acquired by the CLO retain such risk at the asset level and, at origination of such asset, takes a loan tranche of at least 20% of the aggregate principal balance, it is possible that the originators and lead arrangers of loans in this market will not agree to assume this risk or provide such retention at origination of the asset in a manner that would provide meaningful relief from the risk retention requirements for CLO managers.

The Fund believes that the U.S. risk retention requirements imposed for CLO managers under Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act has created some uncertainty in the market in regard to future CLO issuance. Given that certain CLO managers may require capital provider partners to satisfy this requirement, the Fund believes that this may create opportunities and additional risks for the Fund in the future.

On February 9, 2018, a panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that the federal agencies exceeded their authority under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in adopting the final rules as applied to asset managers of open-market CLOs. On April 5, 2018, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia entered an order implementing the D.C. Circuit Ruling and thereby vacated the U.S. Risk Retention Rules insofar as they apply to CLO managers of “open market CLOs”.

Further, to the extent income from the Fund’s CLO equity investments (which the Fund expects to decline as those vehicles deleverage after the end of their respective reinvestment periods) declines or if the Fund transitions its portfolio into lower yielding investments, the Fund’s ability to pay future distributions may be harmed.

On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. It is unclear if at that time whether or not LIBOR will cease to exist or if new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after 2021. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large US financial institutions, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with a new index calculated by short-term repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities. On June 12, 2019, the Staff from the SEC’s Division of Corporate Finance, Division of Investment Management, Division of Trading and Markets, and Office 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. Recently, the CLOs we have invested in have included, or have been amended to include, language permitting the CLO investment manager, to implement a market replacement rate (like those proposed by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) 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 can we ensure the CLO investment managers will undertake the suggested amendments when able. Our net investment income is affected by fluctuations in various interest rates, including LIBOR and prime rates. In addition, in a prolonged low interest rate environment, including a reduction of LIBOR to zero, the difference between the total interest income earned on interest earning assets and the total interest expense incurred on interest bearing liabilities may be compressed, reducing our net interest income and potentially adversely affecting our operating results. We believe that because CLO managers and other CLO market participants have been preparing for an eventual transition away from LIBOR, we do not anticipate such a transition to have a material impact on the liquidity or value of any of our LIBOR-referenced CLO investments. However, because the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain and the specific effects of a transition away from LIBOR cannot be determined with certainty as of the date of this report, a transition away from LIBOR could:

• adversely impact the pricing, liquidity, value of, return on and trading for a broad array of financial products, including any LIBOR-linked CLO investments;

• require extensive changes to documentation that governs or references LIBOR or LIBOR-based products, including, for example, pursuant to time-consuming renegotiations of existing documentation to modify the terms of outstanding investments;

• result in inquiries or other actions from regulators in respect of our preparation and readiness for the replacement of LIBOR with one or more alternative reference rates;

• result in disputes, litigation or other actions with CLO investment managers, regarding the interpretation and enforceability of provisions in our LIBOR-based CLO investments, such as fallback language or other related provisions, including, in the case of fallbacks to the alternative reference rates, any economic, legal, operational or other impact resulting from the fundamental differences between LIBOR and the various alternative reference rates;

• require the transition and/or development of appropriate systems and analytics to effectively transition our risk management processes from LIBOR-based products to those based on one or more alternative reference rates, which may prove challenging given the limited history of the proposed alternative reference rates; and

• cause us to incur additional costs in relation to any of the above factors.

OXLC Management anticipates that the CLO vehicles in which the Fund invests may constitute “passive foreign investment companies” (“PFICs”). If the Fund acquires shares in a PFIC (including equity tranche investments in CLO vehicles that are PFICs), the Fund may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a portion of any “excess distribution” or gain from the disposition of such shares even if such income is distributed as a taxable distribution by the Fund to its stockholders. Certain elections may be available to mitigate or eliminate such tax on excess distributions, but such elections (if available) will generally require the Fund to recognize its share of the PFIC’s income for each year regardless of whether the Fund receives any distributions from such PFIC. The Fund must nonetheless distribute such income to maintain its tax treatment as a RIC.

If the Fund holds more than 10% of the shares in a foreign corporation that is treated as a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”) (including equity tranche investments in a CLO vehicle treated as a CFC), the Fund may be treated as receiving a deemed distribution (taxable as ordinary income) each year from such foreign corporation in an amount equal to the Fund’s pro rata share of the corporation’s income for the tax year (including both ordinary earnings and capital gains). If the Fund is required to include such deemed distributions from a CFC in the Fund’s income, it will be required to distribute such income to maintain its RIC tax treatment regardless of whether or not the CFC makes an actual distribution during such year.

The Fund may be required to include in its income its proportionate share of the income of certain CLO investments to the extent that such CLOs are PFICs for which the Fund has made a qualifying electing fund (“QEF”)

election or are CFCs. To qualify as a RIC, OXLC must, among other things, derive in each taxable year at least 90% of its gross income from certain sources specified in the Code (the “90% Income Test”). The income inclusions from a QEF or a CFC will be “good income” for purposes of this 90% Income Test provided that they are derived in connection with OXLC’s business of investing in stocks and securities or the QEF or the CFC distributes such income to OXLC in the same taxable year to which the income is included in its income.

We may distribute taxable distributions that are payable in cash or shares of our common stock at the election of each stockholder. Under certain applicable IRS guidance, distributions by publicly offered RICs that are payable in cash or in shares of stock at the election of stockholders are treated as taxable distributions. The Internal Revenue Service has published a revenue procedure indicating that this rule will apply even where the total amount of cash to be distributed is not less than 20% (which has been temporarily reduced to 10% for distributions declared on or after April 1, 2020, and on or before December 31, 2020) of the total distribution. Under this revenue procedure, if too many stockholders elect to receive their distributions in cash, the cash available for distribution must be allocated among the stockholders electing to receive cash (with the balance of the distribution paid in stock). In no event will any stockholder electing to receive cash, receive less than the lesser of (a) the portion of the distribution such stockholder has elected to receive in cash or (b) an amount equal to his, her or its entire distribution times the percentage limitation on cash available for distribution. If we decide to make any distributions consistent with this revenue procedure that are payable in part in our stock, taxable stockholders receiving such distributions will be required to include the full amount of the distribution (whether received in cash, our stock, or a combination thereof) as ordinary income (or as long-term capital gain to the extent such distribution is properly reported as a capital gain distribution) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. stockholder may be required to pay tax with respect to such distributions in excess of any cash received. If a U.S. stockholder sells the stock it receives as a distribution in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the distribution, depending on the market price of our stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. stockholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such distributions, including in respect of all or a portion of such distribution that is payable in stock. In addition, if a significant number of our stockholders determine to sell shares of our stock in order to pay taxes owed on distributions, it may put downward pressure on the trading price of our stock.

Legislation commonly referred to as the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” or “FATCA,” generally imposes a 30% withholding tax on payments of certain types of income to foreign financial institutions (“FFIs”) unless such FFIs either (i) enter into an agreement with the U.S. Treasury to report certain required information with respect to accounts held by U.S. persons (or held by foreign entities that have U.S. persons as substantial owners) or (ii) reside in a jurisdiction that has entered into an intergovernmental agreement (“IGA”) with the United States to collect and share such information and are in compliance with the terms of such IGA and any enabling legislation or regulations. The types of income subject to the tax include U.S. source interest and dividends. While existing U.S. Treasury regulations would also require withholding on payments of the gross proceeds from the sale of any property that could produce U.S. source interest or dividends, the U.S. Treasury Department has indicated in subsequent proposed regulations its intent to eliminate this requirement. Most CLO vehicles in which OXLC invests will be treated as non-U.S. financial entities for this purpose, and therefore will be required to comply with these reporting requirements to avoid the 30% withholding tax. If a CLO vehicle in which OXLC invests fails to properly comply with these reporting requirements, it could reduce the amounts available to distribute to equity and junior debt holders in such CLO vehicle, which could materially and adversely affect OXLC’s operating results and cash flows.

If the Fund is required to include amounts in income prior to receiving distributions representing such income, the Fund may have to sell some of its investments at times and/or at prices management would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or forgo new investment opportunities. If the Fund is not able to obtain cash from other sources, it may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax. For additional discussion regarding the tax implications of a RIC, see “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — U.S. Federal Income Taxes”.

NOTE 13. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES (cont.)

The Fund’s Term Shares pay dividends at a fixed dividend rate. Prices of fixed income investments vary inversely with changes in market yields. The market yields on securities comparable to the Term Shares may increase, which would likely result in a decline in the secondary market price of such shares prior to the term redemption date. The Fund may be unable to pay dividends on the Term Shares under some circumstances. The terms of any future indebtedness OXLC may incur could preclude the payment of dividends in respect of equity securities, including such shares, under certain conditions.

As a registered closed-end investment company, OXLC is required to comply with the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act and the Articles Supplementary governing OXLC’s Preferred Stock. Under the 1940 Act, the Fund may not issue additional Preferred Stock if immediately after such issuance the Fund will not have an asset coverage of at least 200% (defined as the ratio of the Fund’s gross assets (less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) to its outstanding senior securities representing indebtedness, plus the aggregate involuntary liquidation preference of OXLC’s outstanding Preferred Stock). In addition, the Articles Supplementary governing OXLC’s Term Preferred Shares require that the Fund have an asset coverage of at least 200% as of the end of each fiscal quarter. If the asset coverage is not at least 200% as of such measurement dates, OXLC may not be able to incur additional debt or issue additional shares of Preferred Stock and could be forced to sell a portion of its investments to repurchase or redeem some shares of Preferred Stock when it is disadvantageous to do so, which could have a material adverse effect on the Fund’s operations. Further, OXLC may be restricted from making distributions to holders of the Fund’s common stock if the Fund does not have asset coverage of at least 200%.

Given the ten-year original terms, and potential for early redemption, of the Term Preferred Shares, holders of such shares may face an increased reinvestment risk, which is the risk that the return on an investment purchased with proceeds from the sale or redemption of such shares may be lower than the return previously obtained from the investment in such shares, see “Note 7. Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock”.

The Fund does not intend to have the Term Preferred Shares rated by any rating agency. Unrated securities usually trade at a discount to similar, rated securities. As a result, there is a risk that any such shares may trade at a price that is lower than they might otherwise trade if rated by a rating agency.

NOTE 14. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which amends the financial instruments impairment guidance so that an entity is required to measure expected credit losses for financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. As such, an entity will use forward-looking information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 also amends the guidance in FASB ASC Subtopic No. 325-40, Investments-Other, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, related to the subsequent measurement of accretable yield recognized as interest income over the life of a beneficial interest in securitized financial assets under the effective yield method. ASU 2016-13 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Fund is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our financial statements. Had ASU 2016-13 been adopted for the full fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, income from securitization vehicles and investments would have increased by approximately $8.1 million. Future events may impact the exact amount recognized for the next fiscal year upon adoption on April 1, 2020.

For the year ended March 31, 2019, the Fund issued 282,820 shares of common stock in connection with the distribution reinvestment plan. For the year ended March 31, 2019, as part of our distribution reinvestment plan for our common stockholders, our distribution reinvestment administrator purchased 140,996 shares, of our common stock for approximately $1.4 million, in the open market to satisfy the reinvestment portion of our distributions.

NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the CLO vehicles in which we make investments depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the valuation of our investments.

As previously announced by the Fund, our Board of Directors had declared monthly common stock distributions through June 30, 2020 (payment information is repeated below). While no decision has yet been made with regard to the Fund’s common stock distributions for July, August and September, we believe that the Fund’s Board of Directors will likely elect to reduce or suspend the Fund’s distributions for those months. In light of current economic and market conditions, specifically as a result of the global crisis caused by the spread of the COVID-19 virus, we believe that no reliance should be placed on the prospect for any particular level of common stock distributions for those months, or for any other periods.

Month Ending	Record Date	Payment Date	Amount Per Share
May 31, 2020	May 14, 2020	May 29, 2020	$0.135
June 30, 2020	June 15, 2020	June 30, 2020	$0.135

On April 30, 2020, the Board of Directors declared the required monthly dividends on its Series 2023, Series 2024, and Series 2027 Term Preferred Shares (each, a “Share”), as follows:

	Per Share Dividend Amount Declared		Record Dates	Payable Dates
Series 2023	$	0.15625000	June 15, July 17, August 17	June 30, July 31, August 31
Series 2024	$	0.14062500	June 15, July 17, August 17	June 30, July 31, August 31
Series 2027	$	0.13020833	June 15, July 17, August 17	June 30, July 31, August 31

The Fund has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance and noted no other events that necessitate adjustments to or disclosure in the financial statements.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (the “Fund”) as of March 31, 2020, the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2020, and the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2020, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of March 31, 2020, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2020 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2020 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(1) Total amount of each class of senior securities outstanding at the end of the period presented.

(2) Asset coverage per unit is the ratio of the carrying value of our total consolidated assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to the aggregate amount of outstanding senior securities, as calculated separately for each of the Term Preferred Shares and the Nomura Agreement in accordance with section 18(h) of the 1940 Act. With respect to the Term Preferred Shares, the asset coverage per unit is expressed in terms of a ratio per share of outstanding Term Preferred Shares (when expressing in terms of dollar amounts per share, the asset coverage ratio per unit is multiplied by the involuntary liquidation preference per unit of $25). With respect to the Nomura Agreement, the asset coverage ratio per unit is expressed in terms of a ratio per unit of outstanding Nomura Agreement (when expressing in terms of dollar amounts per share, the asset coverage per unit is multiplied by $1,000 per principal amount).

(3) The amount to which such class of senior security would be entitled upon the voluntary liquidation of the issuer in preference to any security junior to it.

(4) With respect to the Term Preferred Shares, the Average Market Value Per Unit is calculated by taking the daily average closing price of the security for the respective period and dividing it by $25 per share to determine a unit price per share consistent with Asset Coverage Per Unit. With respect to the Nomura Agreement, the Average Market Value is not applicable as there are no senior securities thereunder which are registered for public trading.

(5) On July 24, 2015, OXLC redeemed all issued and outstanding Series 2017 Term Shares at the term redemption price.

(6) On March 12, 2020, OXLC redeemed 1,200,000 shares of the Series 2023 Term Preferred Shares issued and outstanding at the term redemption price.

(7) On July 14, 2017, we redeemed all issued and outstanding 8.125% Series 2024 Term Preferred Shares at the term redemption price.

(8) On June 14, 2017, we issued 2,729,415 shares of our newly designated Series 2024 Term Preferred Shares.

(9) On February 11, 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of 3,500,000 shares of our newly designated 6.25% Series 2027 Term Preferred Stock at a public offering price of $25 per share, raising approximately $84.7 million in net proceeds. On March 10, 2020, an additional 164,000 shares were issued pursuant to an exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $4.0 million.

(10) On May 1, 2019, the Nomura Agreement was amended to (i) extend the maturity date of the Repo from July 2, 2019 to January 2, 2020, and (ii) reduce the funding cost of the Nomura Agreement from 3-month LIBOR plus 3.15% per annum to 3-month LIBOR plus 2.90% per annum effective as of July 2, 2019. In addition, the Nomura Agreement was partially paid down on May 15, 2019 from approximately $42.5 million to $35.0 million. On August 15, 2019, the Nomura Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date of the Repo from January 2, 2020 to April 2, 2020. On November 4, 2019, in light of market conditions, we elected to post additional collateral with a market value of approximately $8.2 million. On December 26, 2019, we amended the Nomura Agreement to extend the maturity date of the Repo from April 2, 2020 to October 2, 2020 and sold CLO securities to Nomura with a market value of approximately $50.0 million, resulting in an increase in the maximum facility size of the Repo from $35.0 million to $50.0 million. On March 17, 2020, in light of market conditions, we elected to post additional collateral with a market value of approximately $20.9 million. In addition, the Repo was partially paid down on March 30, 2020 from $50,000,000 to $40,000,000.

DISTRIBUTION REINVESTMENT PLAN

We have adopted a distribution reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of our distributions on behalf of our stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash as provided below. As a result, if our Board of Directors authorizes, and we declare, a cash distribution, our stockholders who have not opted out of our distribution reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving the cash distributions.

No action will be required on the part of a registered stockholder to have his cash distribution reinvested in shares of our common stock. A registered stockholder may elect to receive an entire distribution in cash by notifying Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the plan administrator and our transfer agent and registrar, by telephone, through the Internet or in writing so that such notice is received by the plan administrator no later than the record date for distributions to stockholders. The plan administrator will set up an account for shares acquired through the plan for each stockholder who has not elected to receive distributions in cash and hold such shares in non-certificated form. Upon request by a stockholder participating in the plan, received by telephone, through the Internet or writing prior to the record date, the plan administrator will, instead of crediting shares to the participant’s account, issue a certificate registered in the participant’s name for the number of whole shares of our common stock and a check for any fractional share, less any applicable fees.

Those stockholders whose shares are held by a broker or other financial intermediary may receive distributions in cash by notifying their broker or other financial intermediary of their election.

We expect to use primarily newly-issued shares to implement the plan, whether our shares are trading at a premium or at a discount to net asset value. Under such circumstances, the number of shares to be issued to a stockholder is determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such stockholder by an amount equal to ninety-five (95%) percent of the market price per share of our common stock at the close of regular trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the valuation date fixed by our Board of Directors for such distribution. Market price per share on that date will be the closing price for such shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or, if no sale is reported for such day, at the average of their electronically reported bid and asked prices. We reserve the right to purchase shares in the open market in connection with our implementation of the plan. Shares purchased in open market transactions by the plan administrator will be allocated to a stockholder based on the average purchase price, excluding any brokerage charges or other charges, of all shares of common stock purchased in the open market. The number of shares of our common stock to be outstanding after giving effect to payment of the distribution cannot be established until the value per share at which additional shares will be issued has been determined and elections of our stockholders have been tabulated.

There is no charge to stockholders for receiving their distributions in the form of additional shares of our common stock. Any transaction fees, brokerage charges, plan administrator’s fees or any other charges for handling distributions in stock are paid by us. There are no brokerage charges with respect to shares we have issued directly as a result of distributions payable in stock. If a participant elects by telephonic, Internet or written notice to the plan administrator to have the plan administrator sell part or all of the shares held by the plan administrator in the participant’s account and remit the proceeds to the participant, the plan administrator is authorized to deduct a $2.50 transaction fee plus brokerage charges from the proceeds.

Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of stock are subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as are stockholders who elect to receive their distributions in cash. The amount of the distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be equal to the fair market value of the stock received. A stockholder’s basis for determining gain or loss upon the sale of stock received in a distribution from us will be equal to the amount treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The plan may be terminated by us upon notice in writing mailed to each participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any dividend or distribution by us. All correspondence concerning the plan should be directed to the plan administrator as follows: through the Internet at www.computershare/investor, telephone number is 1-800-426-5523 and written correspondence can be mailed to Computershare Trust Company, N.A., P.O. Box 30170, College Station, TX 77845.

In reaching a decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board of Directors reviewed a significant amount of information provided by Oxford Lane Management in response to questionnaires provided by counsel to the independent directors on behalf of the independent directors and considered and concluded, among other things:

• The nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided to us by Oxford Lane Management, including with respect to the investment process and Oxford Lane Management’s policies and guidelines currently in place to monitor and manage the risk and volatility associated with the Fund’s portfolio, and the qualifications and abilities of the professional personnel of Oxford Lane Management and the compensation structure for such personnel, and concluded that such services are satisfactory;

• The investment performance of OXLC and Oxford Lane Management including a comparison to the performance of OXLC’s peer group, and concluded that OXLC’s performance is reasonable in comparison to its peers;

• Comparative data with respect to advisory fees or similar expenses paid by other closed-end management investment companies with similar investment objectives, and concluded that the total advisory fees paid by OXLC to Oxford Lane Management were not unreasonable;

• Our historical and projected operating expenses and expense ratio compared to closed-end management investment companies with similar investment objectives, and concluded that our operating expenses were reasonable;

• Any existing and potential sources of indirect income to Oxford Lane Management or Oxford Funds from their relationships with OXLC and the profitability of those relationships, and concluded that Oxford Lane Management’s profitability was not excessive with respect to us;

Based on the information reviewed and the discussions detailed above, the Board of Directors, including all of the directors who are not “interested persons” as defined in the 1940 Act, and assisted by independent counsel, concluded that the fees payable to Oxford Lane Management pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement were not unreasonable, and comparable to the fees paid by other management investment companies with similar investment objectives, in relation to the services to be provided.

OXFORD LANE MANAGEMENT, LLC
STATEMENT OF POLICIES AND PROCEDURES REGARDING THE VOTING OF SECURITIES

The Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures of the Adviser are set forth below. You may obtain information about how the Adviser voted proxies with respect to the Registrant’s portfolio securities by making a written request for proxy voting information to: Chief Compliance Officer, Oxford Lane Management, LLC, 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, CT 06830.

Introduction

As an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), the Adviser has a fiduciary duty to act solely in the best interests of its clients. As part of this duty, the Adviser recognizes that it must vote client securities in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in the best interests of its clients.

These policies and procedures for voting proxies for the Adviser’s investment advisory clients are intended to comply with Section 206 of, and Rule 206(4)-6 under, the Advisers Act.

Proxy Policies

The Adviser will vote proxies relating to the Registrant’s portfolio securities in the best interests of the Registrant’s stockholders. The Adviser will review on a case-by-case basis each proposal submitted for a stockholder vote to determine its impact on the portfolio securities held by the Registrant. Although the Adviser will generally vote against proposals that may have a negative impact on the Registrant’s portfolio securities, it may vote for such a proposal if there exist compelling long-term reasons to do so.

The proxy voting decisions of the Adviser are made by the senior officers of the Adviser who are responsible for monitoring each of the Registrant’s investments. To ensure that its vote is not the product of a conflict of interest, the Adviser requires that: (i) anyone involved in the decision making process to disclose to the Adviser’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) any 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 (ii) employees involved in the decision making process or vote administration are prohibited from revealing how the Adviser intends to vote on a proposal without the prior approval of the CCO and Senior Management in order to reduce any attempted influence from interested parties.

Proxy Voting Records

You may obtain information about how the Adviser voted proxies with respect to the Registrant’s portfolio securities by making a written request for proxy voting information to: Chief Compliance Officer, Oxford Lane Management, LLC, 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, CT 06830.

Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Investment Companies.

Information pertaining to the portfolio managers of the Registrant, as of March 31, 2020, is set forth below.

The management of the Registrant’s investment portfolio is the responsibility of Oxford Lane Management, LLC (“Oxford Lane Management”), and its investment committee, which currently consists of Jonathan H. Cohen, the Registrant’s Chief Executive Officer, Saul B. Rosenthal, the Registrant’s President, and Darryl Monasebian, the Executive Vice President of Oxford Lane Management. Oxford Lane Management’s investment committee must approve each new investment that the Registrant makes. The members of Oxford Lane Management’s investment committee are not employed by the Registrant, and receive no compensation from the Registrant in connection with their portfolio management activities. Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal, through their ownership of Oxford Funds, LLC, the managing member of Oxford Lane Management, are entitled to a portion of any investment advisory fees paid by the Registrant to Oxford Lane Management.

Because Oxford Lane Management currently provides portfolio management services only to the Registrant, the Registrant does not believe there are any conflicts of interests with respect to Oxford Lane Management’s management of the Registrant’s portfolio on the one hand, and the management of other accounts or investment vehicles by Oxford Lane Management on the other. However, Mr. Cohen currently serves as Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Rosenthal currently serves as President and Chief Operating Officer of Oxford Square Capital

Corp., a publicly-traded business development company that invests principally in CLOs and the debt of U.S.-based companies. Messrs, Cohen and Rosenthal also serve in the same positions at Oxford Square Capital Corp.’s investment adviser. Charles M. Royce is a non-managing member, of Oxford Square Management, LLC. As a result, Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal may be subject to certain conflicts of interests with respect to their management of the Registrant’s portfolio on the one hand, and their respective obligations to manage Oxford Square Capital Corp. on the other hand. Since 2015 and 2018, respectively, Mr. Cohen has also served as the Chief Executive Officer of each of Oxford Bridge Management, LLC, or “Oxford Bridge Management,” the investment adviser to Oxford Bridge, LLC and Oxford Bridge II, LLC (collectively, the “Oxford Bridge Funds”), and Oxford Gate Management, LLC, or “Oxford Gate Management,” the investment adviser to Oxford Gate Master Fund, LLC, Oxford Gate, LLC and Oxford Gate (Bermuda), LLC (collectively, the “Oxford Gate Funds”). The Oxford Bridge Funds and the Oxford Gate Funds are private investment funds. Mr. Rosenthal has also served as President of Oxford Bridge Management, the investment adviser to the Oxford Bridge Funds and Oxford Gate Management, the investment adviser to the Oxford Gate Funds, since 2015 and 2018, respectively.

Set forth below is additional information regarding the additional entities currently managed by Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal:

Name	Entity	Investment Focus	Gross Assets
Oxford Square Capital Corp.	Business development Company	Principally CLOs and debt investments in U.S. based companies	$273.4 million(1)

The Registrant’s investment adviser is led by Jonathan H. Cohen, Chief Executive Officer, and Saul B. Rosenthal, President. Messrs. Cohen and Rosenthal are assisted by Darryl M. Monasebian, Executive Vice President, Debdeep Maji and Kevin Yonon, who serve as Senior Managing Director and Managing Director, respectively for Oxford Lane Management.
