This portion of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income is referred to as the "catch-up." The "catch-up" provision is intended to provide the Advisor with an incentive fee of 12.5% on all of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income in any calendar quarter when the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income reaches 1.715% in such calendar quarter (6.86% annualized). · 12.5% of the amount of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.715% in any calendar quarter (6.86% annualized) shall be payable to the Advisor once the Preferred Return is reached and the catch-up has been achieved (12.5% of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income thereafter shall be allocated to the Advisor).
