CASH COMMON SHAREHOLDER DISTRIBUTION
DECLARATION
Prospect is declaring distributions to common
shareholders as follows:

$0.0600 |
August 2022 |
8/29/2022 |
9/21/2022 |
$0.0600 |
These monthly cash distributions are the 57th,
58th, 59th, and 60th consecutive $0.06 per share distributions to
common shareholders.
Prospect expects to declare September 2022 and
October 2022 distributions to common shareholders in August
2022.
Based on the declarations above, Prospect’s
closing stock price of $7.81 at May 6, 2022 delivers to our common
shareholders an annualized distribution yield of 9.2%.
Shareholders earned an 18.1% total return for
the twelve months ended March 31, 2022 if they participated in our
dividend reinvestment plan (also known as our “DRIP”), while
non-participating shareholders earned a 17.3% return. We offer a 5%
discount to the market price of our common stock to shareholders
who have elected to participate in our DRIP.
Taking into account past distributions and our
current share count for declared distributions, and since inception
through our August 2022 declared distribution, Prospect will have
distributed $19.56 per share to original common shareholders,
aggregating approximately $3.7 billion in cumulative distributions
to all common shareholders.
Since inception in 2004, Prospect has invested
$18.7 billion across 394 investments, exiting 270 of these
investments.
Over the eight quarters from the pre-pandemic
December 2019 quarter to the December 2021 quarter, Prospect has
delivered the highest growth in the business development company
industry in net asset value per common share, with NAV per common
share increasing by 25% over that time period.
Since October 2017, our NII per common share has
aggregated $3.59 while our common shareholder and preferred
shareholder distributions per common share have aggregated $3.29,
causing our NII to exceed common and preferred distributions during
this period by $0.30 per common share.
Initiatives focused on enhancing accretive NII
per share growth include (1) our $1.25 billion targeted 5.50%
perpetual preferred stock offerings (which could potentially be
increased in capacity in an accretive fashion), (2) greater
utilization of our cost efficient and recently upsized revolving
credit facility (with an incremental cost of approximately 2.19% at
today’s one month Libor), (3) retirement of higher cost liabilities
(including multiple recent tender offers and repurchases), (4)
issuing low cost notes (including recent 5 to 30 year senior
unsecured notes with coupons ranging from 2.50% to 4.625%), (5)
increase of short-term Libor rates based on Fed tightening to
exceed floors and boost asset yields, and (6) increased
originations of senior secured debt and selected equity investments
targeting risk-adjusted yields and total returns as we deploy dry
powder from our underleveraged balance sheet.
Our senior management team and employees own
approximately 28% of all common shares outstanding, approximately
$1.2 billion of our common equity as measured at NAV.

with our risk limited in each case to our net investment. At March

(1) Calculation based on fair
value.(2) Excludes investments being redeemed.
To date, including called investments being
redeemed, we have realized 29 subordinated structured notes
totaling $1.003 billion with an expected pooled average realized
IRR of 13.9% and cash on cash multiple of 1.62 times.
Since December 31, 2017 through today, 32 of our
subordinated structured note investments have completed multi-year
extensions of their reinvestment periods (typically at reduced
liability spreads and increased weighted average life asset
benefits). We believe further long-term optionality upside exists
in our structured credit portfolio through additional refinancings
and reinvestment period extensions.
CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY
Our multi-year, long-term laddered and
diversified historical funding profile has included a recently
upsized $1.5 billion revolving credit facility (with 43 lenders, an
increase of 13 lenders including our prior April 2021 extension and
upsizing), program notes, listed baby bonds, institutional bonds,
convertible bonds, listed preferred stock, and program preferred
stock. We have retired multiple upcoming maturities and as of today
our only debt maturing in calendar year 2022 is $60.5 million of
our 2022 Notes.
On April 28, 2021, we completed an amendment and
upsizing of our existing revolving credit facility (the “Facility”)
for Prospect Capital Funding, extending the term 5.0 years. The
Facility includes a revolving period that extends through April 27,
2025, followed by an additional one-year amortization period.
Pricing for amounts drawn under the Facility is one-month Libor
plus 2.05%, a decrease of 0.15%. Undrawn pricing was reduced (1)
0.30% for above 35% to 60% utilization and (2) 0.10% for above 60%
utilization. Our extended facility also has improved borrowing base
benefits due to a change in concentration baskets, which we
estimate increased our borrowing base by approximately $150
million.
The combined amount of our balance sheet cash
and undrawn revolving credit facility commitments is currently
approximately $850 million. Our total unfunded eligible commitments
to non-control portfolio companies total, approximately $42
million, approximately 0.6% of our total assets as of March 31,
2022.

We currently have seven separate unsecured debt
issuances aggregating approximately $1.6 billion outstanding, not
including our program notes, with laddered maturities extending
through October 2028. At March 31, 2022, $340.8 million of program
notes were outstanding with laddered maturities through March
2052.
At March 31, 2022, our weighted average cost of
unsecured debt financing was 4.35%, a decrease of 0.04% from
December 31, 2021, and a decrease of 0.87% from March 31, 2021.
Including usage of our revolving credit facility, at March 31,
2022, our weighted average cost of all debt financing was 3.77%, a
decrease of 0.18% from December 31, 2021, and a decrease of 0.99%
from March 31, 2021.
On August 3, 2020 and October 3, 2020, we
launched our $1.25 billion 5.50% perpetual preferred stock offering
programs. Prospect expects to use the net proceeds from the
offering programs to maintain and enhance balance sheet liquidity,
including repaying our credit facility and purchasing high quality
short-term debt instruments, and to make long-term investments in
accordance with our investment objective. The preferred stock
provides Prospect with a diversified source of accretive fixed-rate
capital without creating maturity risk due to the perpetual term.
To date we have issued approximately $500 million of our 5.50%
perpetual preferred stock programs, with the ability potentially to
upsize such programs based on significant balance sheet
capacity.
On July 19, 2021, we closed a $150 million
listed 5.35% perpetual preferred stock offering. Prospect used the
net proceeds from the offering to maintain and enhance balance
sheet liquidity, including repaying our credit facility and
redeeming higher cost program notes.
In connection with the 5.50% perpetual preferred
stock offering program, effective August 3, 2020 and as amended on
October 30, 2020, we adopted and amended, respectively, a Preferred
Stock Dividend Reinvestment Plan, pursuant to which holders of the
preferred stock will have dividends on their preferred stock
automatically reinvested in additional shares of such preferred
stock at a price per share of $25.00, if they elect.
We currently have approximately $650 million in
preferred stock outstanding.
Prospect holds recently reaffirmed or initiated
investment grade company ratings, all with a stable outlook, from
Standard & Poor’s (BBB-), Moody’s (Baa3), Kroll (BBB-),
Egan-Jones (BBB), and DBRS (BBB (low)). Maintaining our investment
grade ratings with prudent asset, liability, and risk management is
an important objective for Prospect.
DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan
(also known as our “DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of our
distributions on behalf of our shareholders, unless a shareholder
elects to receive cash. On April 17, 2020, our board of directors
approved amendments to the Company’s DRIP, effective May 21, 2020.
These amendments principally provide for the number of newly-issued
shares pursuant to the DRIP to be determined by dividing (i) the
total dollar amount of the distribution payable by (ii) 95% of the
closing market price per share of our stock on the valuation date
of the distribution (providing a 5% discount to the market price of
our common stock), a benefit to shareholders who participate.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN OUR DIVIDEND
REINVESTMENT PLAN
Shares held with a broker or financial
institution
Many shareholders have been automatically “opted
out” of our DRIP by their brokers. Even if you have elected to
automatically reinvest your PSEC stock with your broker, your
broker may have “opted out” of our DRIP (which utilizes DTC’s
dividend reinvestment service), and you may therefore not be
receiving the 5% pricing discount. Shareholders interested in
participating in our DRIP to receive the 5% discount should contact
their brokers to make sure each such DRIP participation election
has been made through DTC. In making such DRIP election, each
shareholder should specify to one’s broker the desire to
participate in the "Prospect Capital Corporation DRIP through DTC"
that issues shares based on 95% of the market price (a 5% discount
to the market price) and not the broker's own "synthetic DRIP” plan
(if any) that offers no such discount. Each shareholder should not
assume one’s broker will automatically place such shareholder in
our DRIP through DTC. Each shareholder will need to make this
election proactively with one’s broker or risk not receiving the 5%
discount. Each shareholder may also consult with a representative
of such shareholder’s broker to request that the number of shares
the shareholder wishes to enroll in our DRIP be re-registered by
the broker in the shareholder’s own name as record owner in order
to participate directly in our DRIP.
Shares registered directly with our transfer
agent
If a shareholder holds shares registered in the
shareholder’s own name with our transfer agent (less than 0.1% of
our shareholders hold shares this way) and wants to make a change
to how the shareholder receives dividends, please contact our plan
administrator, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company LLC by
calling (888) 888-0313 or by mailing American Stock Transfer and
Trust Company LLC, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219.

(1) Per share data amount is based on the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period
presented (except for dividends to stockholders which is based on
actual rate per share).(2) Common stock transactions include the
effect of our issuance of common stock in public offerings (net of
underwriting and offering costs), shares issued in connection with
our common stock dividend reinvestment plan, common shares issued
to acquire investments and common shares repurchased below net
asset value pursuant to our Repurchase Program, and common shares
issued pursuant to the Holder Optional Conversion of our 5.50%
preferred stock.(3) Amount is less than $0.01.(4) Does not foot due

reclassified all preferred stock issuance costs related to
preferred stock issued as temporary equity following our
reclassification of preferred stock during the three months ended
September 30, 2021.(7) The amounts reflected for the respective
fiscal periods were updated based on tax information received
subsequent to our Form 10-K filing for the year ended June 30, 2021
and our Form 10-Q filing for December 31, 2021. Certain
reclassifications have been made in the presentation of prior
period amounts. See Note 2 and Note 12 within the accompanying
notes to the consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-Q
filing for March 31, 2022 for further discussion.(8) Diluted net
increase from operations applicable to common stockholders was
$0.38 and $1.50 for the three and nine months ended March 31,

MIDDLE-MARKET LOAN PORTFOLIO COMPANY WEIGHTED AVERAGE
EBITDA AND NET LEVERAGE
Middle-Market Loan Portfolio Company Weighted
Average Net Leverage (“Middle-Market Portfolio Net Leverage”) and
Middle-Market Loan Portfolio Company Weighted Average EBITDA
(“Middle-Market Portfolio EBITDA”) provide clarity into the
underlying capital structure of PSEC’s middle-market loan portfolio
investments and the likelihood that PSEC’s overall portfolio will
make interest payments and repay principal.
Middle-Market Portfolio Net Leverage reflects
the net leverage of each of PSEC’s middle-market loan portfolio
company debt investments, weighted based on the current fair market
value of such debt investments. The net leverage for each
middle-market loan portfolio company is calculated based on PSEC’s
investment in the capital structure of such portfolio company, with
a maximum limit of 10.0x adjusted EBITDA. This calculation excludes
debt subordinate to PSEC’s position within the capital structure
because PSEC’s exposure to interest payment and principal repayment
risk is limited beyond that point. Additionally, subordinated
structured notes, other structured credit, real estate investments,
investments for which EBITDA is not available, and equity
investments, for which principal repayment is not fixed, are also
not included in the calculation. The calculation does not exceed
10.0x adjusted EBITDA for any individual investment because 10.0x
captures the highest level of risk to PSEC. Middle-Market Portfolio
Net Leverage provides PSEC with some guidance as to PSEC’s exposure
to the interest payment and principal repayment risk of PSEC’s
overall debt portfolio. PSEC monitors its Middle-Market Portfolio
Net Leverage on a quarterly basis.
Middle-Market Portfolio EBITDA is used by PSEC
to supplement Middle-Market Portfolio Net Leverage and generally
indicates a portfolio company’s ability to make interest payments
and repay principal. Middle-Market Portfolio EBITDA is calculated
using the EBITDA of each of PSEC’s middle-market loan portfolio
companies, weighted based on the current fair market value of the
related investments. The calculation provides PSEC with insight
into profitability and scale of the portfolio companies within our
overall debt investments.
These calculations include addbacks that are
typically negotiated and documented in the applicable investment
documents, including but not limited to transaction costs,
share-based compensation, management fees, foreign currency
translation adjustments and other nonrecurring transaction
expenses.
Together, Middle-Market Portfolio Net Leverage
and Middle-Market Portfolio EBITDA assist PSEC in assessing the
likelihood that PSEC will timely receive interest and principal
payments. However, these calculations are not meant to substitute
for an analysis of PSEC’s our underlying portfolio company debt
investments, but to supplement such analysis.
PRIMARY ORIGINATION STRATEGIES
Middle-Market Lending - We make
directly-originated, agented loans to companies, including
companies which are controlled by private equity sponsors and
companies that are not controlled by private equity sponsors (such
as companies that are controlled by the management team, the
founder, a family or public shareholders). This debt can take the
form of first lien, second lien, unitranche or unsecured loans.
These loans typically have equity subordinate to our loan position.
We may also purchase selected equity co-investments in such
companies. In addition to directly-originated, agented loans, we
also invest in senior and secured loans, syndicated loans and high
yield bonds that have been sold to a club or syndicate of buyers,
both in the primary and secondary markets. These investments are
often purchased with a long term, buy-and-hold outlook, and we
often look to provide significant input to the transaction by
providing anchoring orders.
Middle-Market Lending / Buyout - This strategy
involves purchasing senior and secured yield-producing debt and
controlling equity positions in operating companies across various
industries. We believe this strategy provides enhanced certainty of
closing to sellers, and the opportunity for management to continue
in their current roles. These investments are often structured in
tax-efficient partnerships, enhancing returns.
Real Estate - We purchase debt and controlling
equity positions in tax-efficient real estate investment trusts
(“REIT” or “REITs”). The real estate investments of National
Property REIT Corp. (“NPRC”) are in various classes of developed
and occupied real estate properties that generate current yields,
including multi-family properties, student housing, and
self-storage. NPRC seeks to identify properties that have
historically attractive occupancy rates and recurring cash flow
generation. NPRC generally co-invests with established and
experienced property management teams that manage such properties
after acquisition.
Subordinated Structured Notes - We make
investments in structured credit, often taking a significant
position in subordinated structured notes (equity) and rated
secured structured notes (debt). The underlying portfolio of each
structured credit investment is diversified across approximately
100 to 200 broadly syndicated loans and does not have direct
exposure to real estate, mortgages, or consumer-based credit
assets. The structured credit portfolios in which we invest are
managed by established collateral management teams with many years
of experience in the industry.
