As discussed further in Note D — External Investment Manager, the External Investment Manager is treated as a wholly-owned portfolio company of Main Street and is included as part of Main Street’s Investment Portfolio. As of June 30, 2025, Main Street had a receivable of $10.7 million due from the External Investment Manager, which included (i) $7.8 million related primarily to operating expenses incurred by Main Street as required to support the External Investment Manager’s business and amounts due from the External Investment Manager to Main Street under a tax sharing agreement (see further discussion in Note D — External Investment Manager) and (ii) $2.8 million of dividends declared but not paid by the External Investment Manager. MSCC has entered into an agreement with the External Investment Manager to share employees in connection with its asset management business generally, and specifically for the External Investment Manager’s relationship with MSC Income and its other clients (see further discussion in Note A.1. — Organization and Basis of Presentation — Organization and Note D — External Investment Manager).
From time to time, Main Street may make investments in clients of the External Investment Manager in the form of debt or equity capital on terms approved by Main Street’s Board of Directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.
Following the closing of the MSC Income’s follow-on public offering, Main Street entered into a share purchase plan to purchase up to $20.0 million in the aggregate of shares of MSC Income common stock in the open market for a twelve-month period beginning in March 2025, at times when the market price per share of MSC Income common stock is trading below the most recently reported NAV per share of MSC Income’s common stock by certain pre-determined levels (including any updates, corrections or adjustments publicly announced by MSC Income to any previously announced NAV per share). The purchases of shares of MSC Income common stock pursuant to the share purchase plan are intended to satisfy the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act and will otherwise be subject to applicable law, including Regulation M, which may prohibit purchases under certain circumstances. MSC Income also entered into a share repurchase plan to purchase up to $65.0 million in the aggregate of its common stock in the open market with terms and conditions substantially similar to Main Street’s share purchase plan for shares of MSC Income common stock, and daily purchases under the two plans, if any, are expected to be split pro rata (or as close thereto as reasonably possible) between Main Street and MSC Income based on the respective plan sizes. In connection with Main Street’s potential acquisition in excess of 3% of MSC Income’s outstanding shares of common stock as a result of any purchases pursuant to Main Street’s share purchase plan for shares of MSC Income common stock or otherwise, Main Street entered into a Fund of Funds Investment Agreement with MSC Income. The Fund of Funds Investment Agreement provides for the acquisition by Main Street of MSC Income’s shares of common stock, and MSC Income’s sale of such shares to Main Street, in a manner consistent with the requirements of Rule 12d1-4 under the 1940 Act.
The following table summarizes Main Street’s purchases of MSC Income’s common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2025 pursuant to the share purchase plan.
___________________________
(1)Includes broker commissions.
As of June 30, 2025, Main Street owned 1,377,952 shares of MSC Income’s common stock. Each of Main Street’s purchases of MSC Income common stock was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors and MSC Income’s board of directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, of each board. In addition, certain of Main Street’s officers and employees own shares of MSC Income and therefore have direct pecuniary interests in MSC Income.
In December 2020, the External Investment Manager entered into an investment management agreement with Private Loan Fund I to provide investment advisory and management services in exchange for an asset-based fee and certain incentive fees. Private Loan Fund I is a private investment fund exempt from registration under the 1940 Act that co-invests with Main Street in Main Street’s Private Loan investment strategy. In connection with Private Loan Fund I’s initial closing in December 2020, Main Street committed to contribute up to $10.0 million as a limited partner and is entitled to distributions on such interest. In February 2022, Main Street increased its total commitment to Private Loan Fund I from $10.0 million to $15.0 million. In addition, certain of Main Street’s officers and employees (and certain of their immediate family members) have made capital commitments to Private Loan Fund I as limited partners and therefore have direct pecuniary interests in Private Loan Fund I. As of June 30, 2025, Main Street has funded $14.2 million of its limited partner commitment and Main Street’s unfunded commitment was $0.8 million. Main Street’s limited partner commitment to Private Loan Fund I was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.
In March 2022, Main Street provided Private Loan Fund I with a revolving line of credit pursuant to a Secured Revolving Promissory Note, dated March 17, 2022 (as amended, the “PL Fund 2022 Note”), which provides for borrowings up to $15.0 million. Borrowings under the PL Fund 2022 Note bear interest at a rate of SOFR plus 3.0%, subject to a 2.0% SOFR floor, can be advanced through March 2026 and mature in March 2027. Available borrowings under the PL Fund 2022 Note are subject to a 0.25% non-use fee. The borrowings are collateralized by all assets of Private Loan Fund I (other than the assets of its special purpose vehicle financing subsidiary). The PL Fund 2022 Note was unanimously approved by Main Street’s Board of Directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. As of June 30, 2025, there were $4.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the PL Fund 2022 Note.
In September 2023, the External Investment Manager entered into an investment management agreement with Private Loan Fund II to provide investment advisory and management services in exchange for an asset-based fee and certain incentive fees. Private Loan Fund II is a private investment fund exempt from registration under the 1940 Act that co-invests with Main Street in Main Street’s Private Loan investment strategy. In connection with Private Loan Fund II’s initial closing in September 2023, Main Street committed to contribute up to $15.0 million (limited to 20% of total commitments) as a limited partner and is entitled to distributions on such interest. In addition, certain of Main Street’s officers and employees (and certain of their immediate family members) have made capital commitments to Private Loan Fund II as limited partners and therefore have direct pecuniary interests in Private Loan Fund II. As of June 30, 2025, Main Street has funded $9.0 million of its limited partner commitment and Main Street’s unfunded commitment was $6.0 million. Main Street’s limited partner commitment to Private Loan Fund II was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.
In September 2023, Main Street provided Private Loan Fund II with a revolving line of credit pursuant to a Secured Revolving Promissory Note, dated September 5, 2023 (as amended, the “PL Fund II 2023 Note”), which provided for borrowings up to $50.0 million. Borrowings under the PL Fund II 2023 Note bore interest at a rate of SOFR plus 3.5%, subject to a 2.0% SOFR floor, and was scheduled to mature on September 5, 2025. Available borrowings under the PL Fund II 2023 Note were subject to a 0.25% non-use fee. The borrowings were collateralized by all assets of Private Loan Fund II. The PL Fund II 2023 Note was unanimously approved by Main Street’s Board of Directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. In November 2024, Private Loan Fund II fully repaid all borrowings outstanding under the PL Fund II 2023 Note and the PL Fund II 2023 Note was extinguished.
In November 2024, Main Street provided Private Loan Fund II with a revolving line of credit pursuant to a Secured Revolving Promissory Note, dated November 22, 2024 (the “PL Fund II 2024 Note”), which provides for borrowings up to $10.0 million. Borrowings under the PL Fund II 2024 Note bear interest at a rate of SOFR plus 3.0%, subject to a 2.0% SOFR floor, and mature on the date upon which Private Loan Fund II’s investment period concludes, which is scheduled to occur in June 2029. Available borrowings under the PL Fund II 2024 Note are subject to a 0.25% non-use fee. The borrowings are collateralized by all assets of Private Loan Fund II (other than the assets of its special purpose vehicle financing subsidiary). The PL Fund II 2024 Note was unanimously approved by Main Street’s Board of Directors, including each director who is not an “interested person,” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. As of June 30, 2025, there were no borrowings outstanding under the PL Fund II 2024 Note.
