Under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act, the Fund is prohibited from acquiring any additional non-qualifying assets unless, at the time of acquisition, certain specified qualifying assets (e.g., securities issued by an "eligible portfolio company," as defined in Section 2(a)(46)) represent at least 70% of its total assets at the time of acquisition of any additional non-qualifying assets.

(b)The interest rate is the designated annual interest rate exclusive of any original issue discount, fees or end of term payment.

(c) The end of term payments are contractually due on the maturity date and are in addition to the interest rate shown. End of term payments are the percentage of the final payment divided by the original loan amount and are amortized over the full term of the loan.

Under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act, the Fund is prohibited from acquiring any additional non-qualifying assets unless, at the time of acquisition, certain specified qualifying assets (e.g., securities issued by an "eligible portfolio company," as defined in Section 2(a)(46)) represent at least 70% of its total assets. As part of this calculation, the numerator consists of the value of the Fund's investments in all eligible portfolio companies and the denominator consists of total assets less those assets described in Section 55(a)(7) of the 1940 Act.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1.	ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS OF THE FUND

Venture Lending & Leasing VII, Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated in Maryland on June 21, 2012 as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company electing status as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and is managed by Westech Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Manager” or “Management”). The Fund will be dissolved on December 31, 2022 unless the Board of Directors (the “Board”) opts to elect early dissolution. One hundred percent of the stock of the Fund is held by Venture Lending & Leasing VII, LLC (the “Company”). Prior to commencing operations on December 18, 2012, the Fund had no operations other than the sale to the Company of 100,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value for $25,000 in July 2012. This issuance of stock was a requirement to apply for a finance lender’s license from the California Commissioner of Corporations, which was obtained on September 20, 2012.

The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve superior risk-adjusted investment returns and it seeks to achieve that objective by providing debt financing to portfolio companies, most of which are private. The Fund generally receives warrants to acquire equity securities in connection with its portfolio investments and generally distributes these warrants to its shareholder upon receipt, or soon thereafter. The Fund also has guidelines for the percentages of total assets that are invested in different types of assets.

The portfolio investments of the Fund primarily consist of debt financing to early and late stage venture capital-backed technology companies.

In the Manager’s opinion, the accompanying condensed interim financial statements (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for interim periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in audited annual financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted; however, the Fund believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The interim results for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of what the results would be for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes included in the Fund’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.


2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As an investment company, the Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance as set forth in Topic 946 (“Financial Services – Investment Companies”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, as amended (“ASC”). Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and money market mutual funds with maturities of 90 days or less. Money market mutual funds held as cash equivalents are valued at their most recently traded net asset value. Within cash and cash equivalents, as of June 30, 2020, the Fund held 985,505 units in the Blackrock Treasury Trust

Institutional Fund valued at $1 per unit at a yield of 0.11%, which represented 1.89% of the net assets of the Fund. Within cash and cash equivalents, as of ~~March~~ December 31, ~~2020~~2019, the Fund held ~~421~~354,~~605~~105 units in the Blackrock Treasury Trust Institutional Fund valued at $1 per unit at a yield of 01.206%, which represented 0.765% of the net assets of the Fund.

Interest Income

Interest income on loans is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective interest method including amounts resulting from the amortization of equity securities included as additional compensation as part of the loan agreements. Additionally, fees received as part of the transaction are added to the loan discount and amortized over the life of the loan.

Realized Gains and Losses from Loans

Realized gains and losses on the sale of loans are computed using the difference between the amortized cost and the sales proceeds. Realized losses on loan write-offs are recognized when management determines a loan is uncollectible.

Investment Valuation

The Fund accounts for loans at fair value in accordance with the valuation methods below. All valuations are determined under the direction of the Manager, in accordance with the valuation methods.

As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the financial statements included nonmarketable investments of $6955.4 million and $86.0 million, respectively, (or 9897.03% and 98.2% of the total assets, respectively), with the fair values determined by the Manager in the absence of readily determinable market values. Because of the inherent uncertainty of these valuations, estimated fair values of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. Below is the information used by the Manager in making these estimates.

Loans

The Fund defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to lower a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Because there is no readily available market price and no secondary market for substantially all of the debt investments made by the Fund in its borrowing portfolio companies, Management determines fair value based on hypothetical markets, and on several factors related to each borrower, including, but not limited to, the borrower’s payment history, available cash and “burn rate,” revenues, net income or loss, the likelihood that the borrower will be able to secure additional financing in the future, and an evaluation of the general interest rate environment. The amount of any valuation adjustment considers the estimated amount and timing of cash payments of principal and interest from the borrower and/or liquidation analysis and is determined based upon a credit analysis of the borrower and an analysis of the expected recovery from the borrower, including consideration of factors such as the nature and quality of the Fund’s security interests in collateral, the estimated value of the Fund’s collateral, the size of the loan, and the estimated time that will elapse before the Fund achieves a recovery. Management has evaluated these factors and has concluded that, the effect of deterioration in the quality of the underlying collateral, increase in size of the loan, increase in the estimated time to recovery and increase in the hypothetical market coupon rate would have the effect of lowering the value of the current portfolio of loans.

Non-Accrual Loans

The Fund’s policy is to classify a loan as non-accrual when the portfolio company is delinquent for three consecutive months on its monthly loan payment, or, in the opinion of Management, either ceases or drastically curtails its operations and Management deems that it is unlikely that the loan will return to performing status. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed ~~for the quarter in which the loan was placed on non-accrual status. Any uncollected interest related to quarters~~

for the quarter in which the loan was placed on non-accrual status. Any uncollected interest related to quarters prior to when the loan was placed on non-accrual status is added to the principal balance, and the aggregate balance of the principal and interest is evaluated in accordance with the policy for valuation of loans in determining Management’s best estimate of fair value. Interest received by the Fund on non-accrual loans will be recognized as interest income if and when the proceeds received exceed the book value of the respective loan.

If a borrower of a non-accrual loan resumes making regular payments and Management believes that such borrower has regained the ability to service the loan on a sustainable basis, the loan is reclassified back to accrual or performing status. Interest that would have been accrued during the time a loan was classified as non-accrual will be added back to the remaining payment schedule causing a change in the effective interest rate.

As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, loans with a cost basis of $32.90 million and a fair value of $1315.98 million were classified as non-accrual. As of December 31, 2019, loans with a cost basis of $33.5 million and a fair value of $15.6 million were classified as non-accrual.

Warrants and Equity Securities

Warrants and equity securities received in connection with loan transactions are measured at a fair value at the time of acquisition. Warrants are valued based on a modified Black-Scholes option pricing model which considers, among several factors, the underlying stock value, expected term, volatility, and risk-free interest rate. It is anticipated that such securities will be distributed by the Fund to the Company simultaneously with, or shortly following, their acquisition.

The underlying asset value is estimated based on information available, including information regarding recent rounds of funding of the portfolio company, or the publicly-quoted stock price at the end of the financial reporting period for warrants for comparable publicly-quoted securities.

Volatility, or the amount of uncertainty or risk about the size of the changes in the warrant price, is based on an index of publicly traded companies grouped by industry and which are similar in nature to the underlying portfolio companies issuing the warrant (“Industry Index”). The volatility assumption for each Industry Index is based on the average volatility for individual public companies within the portfolio company’s industry for a period of time approximating the expected life of the warrants. A hypothetical increase in the volatility of the warrants used in the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model would have the effect of increasing the value of the warrants.

The remaining expected lives of warrants are based on historical experience of the average life of the warrants, as warrants are often exercised in the event of acquisitions, mergers, or initial public offerings, and terminated due to events such as bankruptcies, restructuring activities, or additional financings. These events cause the expected term to be less than the remaining contractual term of the warrants. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund assumed the average duration of a warrant is 4.0 years. The effect of a hypothetical increase in the estimated initial term of the warrants used in the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model would have the effect of increasing the value of the warrants. However, the estimated initial term of the warrants is one factor, of many, used in the valuation of warrants, and by itself does not have a significant impact on the result of operations.

The risk-free interest rate is derived from the constant maturity tables issued by the U.S. Treasury Department. The effect of a hypothetical increase in the estimated risk-free rate used in the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model would have the effect of increasing the value of the warrants.

The Fund engages an independent valuation company to provide valuation assistance with respect to the warrants received as part of loan consideration, including an evaluation of the Fund’s valuation methodology and the reasonableness of the assumptions used from the perspective of a market participant. The independent valuation company also calculates several of the inputs used, such as volatility and risk-free rate.

and the reasonableness of the assumptions used from the perspective of a market participant. The independent valuation company also calculates several of the inputs used, such as volatility and risk-free rate.

Other Assets and Liabilities

Other assets include costs incurred in conjunction with borrowings under the Fund’s debt facility and are stated at initial cost. The costs are amortized over the term of the facility.

The fair values of other assets and accrued liabilities are estimated at their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

The carrying values of the borrowings under the debt facility approximates their fair value based on the borrowing rates available to the Fund.

Commitment Fees

Unearned income and commitment fees on loans are recognized using the effective-interest method over the term of the loan. Commitment fees are carried as liabilities when received for commitments upon which no draws have been made. When the first draw is made, the fee is treated as unearned income and is recognized as described above. If a draw is never made, the forfeited commitment fee, less any applicable legal costs, becomes recognized as other income after the commitment expires.

Deferred Bank Fees

The deferred bank fees and costs associated with the debt facility are included in ~~Other~~other assets in the Condensed Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are being amortized over the estimated life of the facility~~, which currently matures on October 30, 2020~~. The amortization of these costs is recorded as ~~Interest~~interest expense in the Condensed Statements of Operations.

~~Interest~~Derivative ~~Rate Swap Agreement~~Instrument

The Fund ~~has~~uses ~~entered~~derivative ~~into~~instrument ~~a cancellable interest rate swap agreement~~ to manage ~~the~~its ~~Fund's~~ exposure to ~~change~~changes in interest rates on ~~its~~ expected borrowings under its debt facility, as the Fund originates fixed rate loans (see Note 8). Cancellable interest rate swaps are primarily valued on the basis of quotes obtained from banks, brokers and dealers and adjusted for counterparty risk and the optionality to terminate the swap early. The valuation of the swap agreement also considers the future expected interest rates on the notional principal balance remaining which is comparable to what a prospective acquirer would pay on the measurement date. Valuation pricing models consider inputs such as forward rates, anticipated interest rate volatility relating to the reference rate, as well as time value and other factors underlying swap instruments. The Fund is a party to a master netting arrangement with MUFG Union Bank, N.A., however, the Fund has elected not to offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. The contract is recorded at gross fair value in either Derivative asset - interest rate swap or Derivative liability - interest rate swap in the Condensed Statements of Assets and Liabilities, depending on whether the value of the contract is in favor of the Fund or the counterparty. The changes in fair value are recorded in Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from derivative instruments in the Condensed Statements of Operations and the quarterly interest received or paid on the interest rate swap contract, if any, is recorded in Net realized gain (loss) from derivative instruments in the Condensed Statements of Operations. The interest rate swap agreement is contractually scheduled to terminate on December 1, 2020. The Fund has the option to terminate the swap early on June 1, 2020.

~~in the Condensed Schedules of Investments~~3. ~~All~~ ~~loans~~FAIR ~~are~~VALUE ~~senior to unsecured creditors and other secured creditors, unless as indicated in the Condensed Schedules of Investments.~~ DISCLOSURES

The Fund provides asset-based financing primarily to start-up and emerging growth venture-backed companies pursuant to commitments whereby the Fund agrees to finance assets and provide working or growth capital up to a specified amount for the term of the commitment, upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified by such commitment. Even though these loans are generally secured by the assets of the borrowers, the Fund in most cases is subject to the credit risk of such companies. As of June 30, 2020, the Fund’s investments in loans were primarily to companies based within the United States and were diversified among borrowers in the industry segments shown in the Condensed Schedules of Investments. All loans are senior to unsecured creditors and other secured creditors, unless as indicated in the Condensed Schedules of Investments.

The Fund 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; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability was exchanged in an orderly transaction; it was not a forced liquidation or distressed sale. Because there is no readily available market price and no secondary market for substantially all of the debt investments made by the Fund to borrowing portfolio companies, Management determines fair value (or estimated exit value) based on a hypothetical market, and several factors related to each borrower.

Loan balances in the Condensed Schedules of Investments are listed by borrower. Typically, a borrower’s balance will be composed of several loans drawn under a commitment made by the Fund with the interest rate on each loan fixed at the time each loan is funded. Each loan drawn under a commitment has a different maturity date and amount.

For the three months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on performing loans was 1314.9758% and 27.43%, respectively, which was inclusive of both cash and non-cash interest income. For the three months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on the cash portion of the interest income was 1112.9151% and 24.59%, respectively. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on performing loans was 14.7927% and 20.19%, respectively, which was inclusive of both cash and non-cash interest income. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on the cash portion of the interest income was 12.4820% and 17.66%, respectively.

For the three months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on all loans was 11.2816% and 24.23%, respectively, which was inclusive of both cash and non-cash interest income. For the three months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on the cash portion of the interest income was 9.6258% and 21.73%, respectively. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on all loans was 1311.8623% and 18.48%, respectively, which was inclusive of both cash and non-cash interest income. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, the weighted-average interest rate on the cash portion of the interest income was 119.7161% and 16.17%, respectively.

Interest is calculated using the effective interest method, and rates earned by the Fund will fluctuate based on many factors including early payoffs, volatility of values ascribed to warrants and new loans funded during the period.

The risk profile of a loan changes when events occur that impact the credit analysis of the borrower and loan as discussed in the Fund’s loan accounting policy. Such changes result in the fair value adjustments made to the individual loans, which in accordance with U.S. GAAP, would be based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where the risk profile is consistent with the original underwriting, which is frequently the case for this loan portfolio, the cost basis of the loan often approximates fair value.

All loans as of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were pledged as collateral for the debt facility, and the Fund’s borrowings are generally collateralized by all assets of the Fund. As of both ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund had no unexpired unfunded commitments to borrowers.

Valuation Hierarchy

Under the FASB ASC Topic 820 (“Fair Value Measurement”), the Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Fund’s valuation techniques. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:



Level 1		Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.
Level 2		Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 3		Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Transfers of investments between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recorded on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers in and out of Level 1, 2, or 3 during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019.

The Fund’s cash equivalents were valued at the traded net asset value of the money market fund. As a result, these measurements are classified as Level 1. The Fund’s ~~investments~~derivative ininstruments ~~the interest rate swap~~ are based on quotes from the market makers that derive fair values from market data, and therefore, are classified as Level 2. The Fund’s borrowings under the debt facility are also classified as Level 2, because the carrying values of the borrowings ~~were~~are based on rates that are observable at commonly quoted intervals, which are Level 2 inputs, and that approximate fair values. The Fund’s loan transactions are individually negotiated and unique, and because there is little to no market in which these assets trade, the inputs for these assets, which are valued using estimated exit values, are classified as Level 3.

The following tables provide quantitative information about the Fund’s Level 3 fair value measurements of the Fund’s investments by industry as of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the tables below, the Fund may also use other valuation techniques and methodologies when determining its fair value measurements.

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including the dilutive effects of potential common shares (e.g. stock options). The Fund has no instruments that would be potential common shares; thus, reported basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same.

5. CAPITAL STOCK

As of both ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 10,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock authorized, and 100,000 shares issued and outstanding. Total committed capital of the Company, as of both ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was $375.0 million. Total contributed capital to the Company through ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was both $375.0 million, of which $323.2 million was contributed to the Fund as of both periods.

Final classification of the distributions as either a return of capital or a distribution of income is an annual determination made at the end of each year dependent upon the Fund’s current year and cumulative earnings and profits.

6. DEBT FACILITY

On July 18, 2013, the Fund established a secured, syndicated revolving loan facility in an initial amount of up to $125.0 million led by Wells Fargo, N.A. and MUFG Union Bank, N.A. In November 2014, the debt facility size thereunder was increased to $255.0 million. On October 30, 2017, the Fund entered into an agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, MUFG Union Bank, N.A. and ING Capital, LLC that (i) reduced the size of the facility to $200.0 million and (ii) amended the interest rate options and commitment fee (the “First Amendment”). All of the assets of the Fund collateralize borrowings by the Fund. Loans under the facility may be, at the option of the Fund, a Reference Rate Loan, a LIBOR Loan or a LIBOR Market Index Rate Loan. The First Amendment facility ~~terminates on October 30, 2020, but~~ can be accelerated in the event of default, such as failure by the Fund to make timely interest or principal payments.

At its option, the Fund may reduce the lenders’ commitments established in the First Amendment by $5.0 million or more once each calendar month. As ~~of December 31, 2019 the debt facility size was $23.0 million.~~ Beginning March 29, 2019, the lenders’ commitments automatically and permanently reduce each fiscal quarter by an amount equal to 12.5% of the aggregate amount of such commitments. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 the debt facility size was $164.52 million.

Borrowings under the facility are collateralized by receivables from loans to portfolio companies advanced by the Fund with assignment of such receivables to the financial institution, plus all of the other assets of the Fund. The Fund pays interest on its borrowings and a fee on the unused portion of the facility. Such borrowings, pursuant to the election of the Fund, bear interest at an annual rate of either (i) Reference Rate plus 1.75%, (ii) LIBOR plus 2.75% or (iii) LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 2.75%. When the Fund is using 50% or more of the maximum amount available under the amended loan agreement, the applicable commitment fee is 0.25% of the unused portion of the loan facility; otherwise, the applicable commitment fee is 0.50% of the unused portion. The Fund pays the unused credit line fee quarterly. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $144.52 million and $15.4 million were outstanding under the facility, respectively.

As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the LIBOR rate was as follows:

1-Month LIBOR	0.~~9929~~1623%
3-Month LIBOR	10.~~4505~~3020%

Bank fees and other costs of $1.1 million incurred in connection with the acquisition of the facility have been capitalized and are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the facility. ~~The amortization of bank fees and other costs from the prior facility of $2.7 million was completely amortized by November 2017.~~ As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the remaining unamortized fees and costs of less than $0.21 million are being amortized over the expected life of the facility~~, which is expected to terminate on October 30, 2020~~.

The 27facility is revolving and as such does not have a specified repayment schedule, although advances are secured by the assets of the Fund and thus repayments will be required as assets decline. The facility contains various covenants including financial covenants related to: (i) minimum debt service coverage ratio, (ii) interest coverage ratio,

~~The~~ facility is revolving and as such does not have a specified repayment schedule, although advances are secured by the assets of the Fund and thus repayments will be required as assets decline. The facility contains various covenants including financial covenants related to: (i) minimum debt service coverage ratio, (ii) interest coverage ratio, (iii) maximum loan loss reserves and (iv) unfunded commitment ratio. There are also various restrictive covenants, including limitations on: (i) the incurrence of liens, (ii) consolidations, mergers and asset sales and (iii) capital expenditures. As of March 31, 2020, Management is not aware of instances of non-compliance with financial covenants.28

7. MANAGEMENT FEE

As compensation for its services to the Fund, for the two-year period that commenced with the first capital closing, which took place on December 18, 2012, the Manager received a management fee (“Management Fee”) computed and paid at the end of each quarter at an annual rate of 2.5% of the Company’s committed equity capital (regardless of when or if the capital was called) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. Following this two-year period, starting on December 18, 2014, Management Fees are calculated and paid at the end of each quarter at an annual rate of 2.5% of the Fund’s total assets (including amounts derived from borrowed funds) as of the last day of each quarter. Management Fees of $0.4 million and $10.18 million were recognized as expenses for the three months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Management Fees of $0.8 million and $1.9 million were recognized as expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

9. TAX STATUS

The Fund has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and operates in a manner to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. Failing to maintain at least 70% of total assets in “qualifying assets” will result in the loss of BDC status, resulting in losing its favorable tax treatment as a RIC. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the Fund has met the BDC and RIC requirements.

In order to qualify for favorable tax treatment as a RIC, the Fund is required to distribute annually to its shareholder at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. To avoid federal excise taxes, the Fund must distribute annually at least 98% of its ordinary income and 98.2% of net capital gains from the current year and any undistributed ordinary income and net capital gains from the preceding years. The Fund, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If the Fund chooses to do so, all other things being equal, this would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to its shareholder. The Fund will accrue excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income as required.

Below are tables summarizing the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes and the appreciation and depreciation of the investments reported on the Condensed Schedules of Investments and Condensed Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in-capital or accumulated net realized gain (loss), as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Temporary and permanent differences are primarily attributable to differences in the tax treatment of certain loans and the tax characterization of income and non-deductible expenses. These differences are generally determined in conjunction with the preparation of the Fund’s annual RIC tax return.

Book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified among the Fund’s capital accounts. In addition, the character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from U.S. GAAP. The determination of the tax attributes of the Fund’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Fund’s taxable year and is generally based upon its taxable income for the full taxable year and distributions paid for the full taxable year. As a result, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of the Fund’s distributions for a full taxable year. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the Fund had determined the tax attributes of its distributions taxable year-to-date to be from its current and accumulated earnings and profits. There is not yet, however, certainty as to what the actual tax attributes of the Fund’s distributions to the shareholders will be by the year-ended December 31, 2020.

The Fund anticipates distributing all distributable earnings by the end of the year. The Fund had no undistributed earnings through ~~March~~June 3130, 2020. The Fund may pay distributions in excess of its taxable net investment income. This excess would be a tax-free return of capital in the period and reduce the shareholder’s tax basis in its shares.

The Fund’s tax returns remain open for examination by the federal government for a period of three years and California tax authorities for a period of four years from when they are filed. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions and no capital loss carryforwards.

10. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

U.S. GAAP requires disclosure of financial highlights of the Fund for the three and six months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 and 2019.

The total rate of return is defined as the return based on the change in value during the period of a theoretical investment made at the beginning of the period. The total rate of return assumes a constant rate of return for the Fund ~~during the period reported and weights each cash flow by the amount of time held in the Fund. This required methodology differs from an internal rate of return.~~

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In addition to the historical information contained herein, the information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the securities laws. These forward-looking statements reflect the current view of the Fund with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to several risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Fund’s control. All statements, other than statements of historical facts included in this Quarterly Report, regarding the strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of the Fund are forward-looking statements. For example, statements in this Form 10-Q regarding the potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Fund’s business and results of operations are forward-looking statements. When used in this report, the words “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. The Fund does not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether resulting from new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

The reader of this Quarterly Report should understand that all such forward-looking statements are subject to various uncertainties and risks that could affect their outcome. The Fund’s actual results could differ materially from those suggested by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, variances in the actual versus projected growth in assets, return on assets, loan losses, expenses, rates charged on loans and earned on securities investments, competition and macro-economic changes including inflation, interest rate expectations, among other factors including those set forth in the section of this Quarterly Report titled “Risk Factors” and in Item 1A - “Risk Factors” in the Fund’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. This entire Quarterly Report should be read to put such forward-looking statements in context and to gain a more complete understanding of the uncertainties and risks involved in the Fund’s business.

Overview

The Fund is 100% owned by the Company. The Fund’s shares of common stock, at $0.001 par value, were sold to its sole shareholder, the Company, under a stock purchase agreement. The Fund has issued 100,000 of the Fund’s 10,000,000 authorized shares. The Company may make additional capital contributions to the Fund.

The Fund primarily provides debt financing and advisory services to a variety of carefully selected venture-backed companies that have received equity funding from traditional sources of venture capital equity funding (i.e. a professionally managed venture capital firm), as well as non-traditional sources of venture capital equity funding (e.g. micro VC funds, angel investors and strategic investors) (collectively, “Venture-Backed Companies”), primarily throughout the United States with a focus on growth-oriented companies. Secondarily, the Fund may invest in special situations, which are expected to consist principally of convertible and subordinated debt instruments of public and late-stage private companies. The Fund’s portfolio consists of companies in the communications, information services, media, technology (including software and technology-enabled business services), biotechnology, and medical devices industry sectors, among others. The Fund’s capital is generally used by its portfolio companies to finance acquisitions of fixed assets and working capital. On December 18, 2012, the Company completed its first closing of capital contributions and the Fund made its first investment and became a non-diversified, closed-end investment company that elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. While the Fund intends to operate as a non-diversified investment company within the meaning of Section 5(b)(2) of the 1940 Act, from time to time the Fund may act as a diversified investment company within the meaning of Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act.

The Fund elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a RIC under the Code with the filing of its federal corporate income tax return for 2013. Pursuant to this election, the Fund generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income distributed to its shareholder as dividends, allowing the Company to substantially reduce or eliminate its corporate-level tax liability.

~~The~~ Fund will seek to meet the ongoing requirements, including the diversification requirements, to qualify as a RIC under the Code. If the Fund fails to meet these requirements, it will be taxed as an ordinary corporation on its taxable income for that year (even if that income is distributed to the Company) and all distributions out of its 34

The 33Fund will seek to meet the ongoing requirements, including the diversification requirements, to qualify as a RIC under the Code. If the Fund fails to meet these requirements, it will be taxed as an ordinary corporation on its taxable income for that year (even if that income is distributed to the Company) and all distributions out of its earnings and profits will be taxable to the members of the Company as ordinary income; thus, such income will be subject to a double layer of tax. There is no assurance that the Fund will meet the ongoing requirements to qualify as a RIC for tax purposes.

earnings and profits will be taxable to the members of the Company as ordinary income; thus, such income will be subject to a double layer of tax. There is no assurance that the Fund will meet the ongoing requirements to qualify as a RIC for tax purposes.

The portfolio investments of the Fund primarily consist of debt financing to Venture-Backed Companies in the technology sector. The borrower’s ability to repay its loans may be adversely impacted by several factors, and as a result, the loan may not be fully repaid. Furthermore, the Fund’s security interest in any collateral over the borrower’s assets may be insufficient to make up any shortfall in payments.

Transactions with Venture Lending & Leasing VIII, Inc. (“Fund VIII”)

The Manager also serves as investment manager for Fund VIII. The Fund’s Board of Directors determined that so long as Fund VIII had capital available to invest in loan transactions with final maturities earlier than December 31, 2025 (the date on which Fund VIII will be dissolved), the Fund would invest in each portfolio company in which Fund VIII invested (“Investments”). Initially the amount of each Investment was allocated 50% to the Fund and 50% to Fund VIII, or such other allocations as were determined by the respective fund boards, so long as the Fund had capital available to invest. Effective June 30, 2017, the Fund was no longer permitted to enter new commitments to borrowers; however, the Fund was permitted to fund existing commitments, in which Fund VIII may also be invested. The Fund’s last commitment expired on July 31, 2018. The ability of the Fund to co-invest with Fund VIII, and other clients advised by the Manager, is subject to the conditions (“Conditions”) with which the Funds are currently complying while seeking certain exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) from the provisions of Sections 17(d) and 57 of the 1940 Act and Rule 17d-1 thereunder. To the extent that clients, other than Fund VIII, advised by the Manager (but in which the Manager has no proprietary interest) invest in opportunities available to the Fund, the Manager will allocate such opportunities among the Fund and such other clients in a manner deemed fair and equitable considering all of the circumstances in accordance with the Conditions.

Critical Accounting Policies, Practices and Estimates

Critical Accounting Policies and Practices are those accounting policies and practices that are both the most important to the portrayal of the Fund’s net assets and results of operations and require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Critical accounting estimates are accounting estimates where the nature of the estimates is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and the impact of the estimates on net assets or operating performance is material.

In evaluating the most critical accounting policies and estimates, the Manager has identified the estimation of fair value of the Fund’s loan investments as the most critical of the accounting policies and accounting estimates applied to the Fund’s reporting of net assets or operating performance. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Fund 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; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability was exchanged in an orderly transaction; it was not a forced liquidation or distressed sale. There is no readily available market price or secondary market for the loans made by the Fund to borrowers, hence the Manager determines fair value based on a hypothetical market and the estimates are subject to high levels of judgment and uncertainty. The ~~Fund’s loan investments are considered Level 3 fair value measurements in the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of observability over many of the important inputs used in determining fair value.~~

Fund’s loan investments are considered Level 3 fair value measurements in the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of observability over many of the important inputs used in determining fair value.

Critical judgments and inputs in determining the fair value of a loan include the estimated timing and amount of future cash flows and probability of future payments, based on the assessment of payment history, available cash and “burn rate,” revenues, net income or loss, operating results, financial strength of borrower, prospects for the borrower’s raising future equity rounds, likelihood of sale or acquisition of the borrower, length of expected holding period of the loan, collateral position, the timing and amount of liquidation of collateral for loans that are experiencing significant credit deterioration and, as a result, collection becomes collateral-dependent, as well as an evaluation of the general interest rate environment. Management has evaluated these factors and has concluded that the effect of a deterioration in the quality of the underlying collateral, increase in the size of the loan, increase in the estimated time to recovery, and increase in the hypothetical market coupon rate would have the effect of decreasing the fair value of loan investments. The risk profile of a loan changes when events occur that impact the credit analysis of the borrower and the loan. Such changes result in the fair value being adjusted from par value of the individual loan. Where the risk profile is consistent with the original underwriting, the par value of the loan often approximates fair value.

The actual value of the loans may differ from Management’s estimates, which would affect net change in net assets resulting from operations as well as assets.

Recent Development

Due to the recent outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19), the Fund may be directly and indirectly affected by the increased financial market volatility and disruption of the global economy. Among other things, the aforementioned events could impair the ability of borrowers to make scheduled payments, result in loss of revenue, or cause the Fund to incur additional expenses. The increased financial market volatility factored into the Fund's loan valuation adjustment and resulted in a net increase in unrealized loss from loans as of March 31, 2020. Given the uncertainty of the COVID-19 situation, the extent of the long-term economic impact on the Fund’s business operations, result of operations, and access to liquidity and capital resources is unpredictable at this time.

~~Results~~The Fund is maintaining close communications with its debt portfolio companies to proactively assess and manage potential risks. Management has increased oversight analysis of ~~Operations~~credits -across the Fund's debt investment portfolio in an attempt to manage the potential credit risk and improve loan performance. As part of its risk management strategy, Management is tracking mitigating factors and their effectiveness in improving credit performance. For example, Management is taking into consideration the ~~Three~~borrowers’ ~~Months~~participation ~~Ended~~to ~~March~~the 31U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). PPP was created as a part of the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, ~~2020~~Relief, and ~~2019~~Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which provides assistance to small businesses to maintain their payroll, hire back employees who may have been laid off, and cover applicable overhead expenses.

~~Total investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $2.2 million and $6.6 million, respectively, which primarily consisted of interest on venture loans outstanding.~~ The ~~remaining~~Fund ~~income~~believes ~~consisted~~that ~~of interest and dividends on~~ the ~~temporary investment of~~ cash~~. The~~ ~~decrease~~and inscheduled ~~total~~monthly ~~investment~~payments ~~income was primarily due to the decrease in average outstanding balance of performing loans, calculated using the month-end balances,~~ from ~~$177.2~~borrowers million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to $62.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The weighted-average interest rate on performing loans was 13.97% and 14.79% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Also for the same periods, the weighted-average interest rate on all loans was 11.28% and 13.86%, respectively. Interest is calculated using the effective interest method, and rates earned by the Fund will ~~fluctuate~~be ~~based~~sufficient ~~on many factors including early payoffs and volatility of values ascribed~~ to ~~warrants~~satisfy ~~during~~its ~~the~~liquidity ~~three~~requirements ~~months~~associated ~~ended~~with ~~March~~its ~~31,~~existing ~~2020~~operations. ~~The~~ ~~weighted-average interest rate on performing loans and all loans decreased primarily due to loan repayments and loan payoffs since the Fund is no longer making new investments.~~

Management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $0.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Management fees were calculated as 2.5% of the Fund’s total assets and decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to a decrease in the Fund’s total assets.

Interest expense was $0.2 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Interest expense was comprised of amounts related to interest on debt amounts drawn down, unused credit line fees and amounts amortized from deferred fees incurred in conjunction with the loan facility. Interest expense decreased primarily due to the reduction in average debt outstanding from $70.8 million to $13.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively. The impact of the decrease in average debt outstanding during the quarter was partially offset by an increase in interest rate from 5.85% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to 6.39% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Banking and professional fees were $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The banking and professional fees were comprised of legal, audit, banking and other professional fees. Banking and professional fees decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily due to the decrease in legal fees.

Other operating expenses were less than $0.1 million for both three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These expenses included director fees, custody fees, tax fees and other expenses related to the operations of the Fund.

Net investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $1.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively.

Net realized gain (loss) from loans was $(0.4) million and less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The primary reason for the loss was due to loan write offs as the loan portfolio continues to decline.

Net realized gain (loss) from derivative instruments was less than $(0.1) million and less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This was actual cash received or paid from derivative contracts in the period as a result of actual LIBOR interest rate fluctuation.

Net change in unrealized loss from loans was $1.5 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The net change in unrealized loss from loans consisted of fair value adjustments taken against loans as a result of an improvement or deterioration in certain portfolio companies’ performance as well as reversal of prior adjustments on realized loan losses.

Net change in unrealized loss from derivative instruments was less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The net change in unrealized loss from derivative instruments consisted of fair market value adjustments to the derivative interest rate swap. The decrease was primarily due to the change in expectations of LIBOR interest rates during the periods as well as the realization of some of the prior value of the position.

Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $(0.5) million and $3.7 million, respectively. On a per share basis, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $(5.11) and $37.18 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources – March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019

The Fund is owned entirely by the Company. As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had subscriptions for capital in the amount of $375.0 million, of which all had been called and received as of both periods. Total capital contributed to the Fund was $323.2 million as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Results of Operations - For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

AsTotal investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.7 million and $9.4 million, respectively, which primarily consisted of ~~March 31~~interest on venture loans outstanding. The remaining income consisted of interest and dividends on the temporary investment of cash. The decrease in total investment income was primarily due to the decrease in average outstanding balance of performing loans, calculated using the month-end balances, from $135.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $46.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Interest expense was $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Interest expense was comprised of amounts related to interest on debt amounts drawn down, unused credit line fees and amounts amortized from deferred fees incurred in conjunction with the loan facility. Interest expense decreased primarily due to the reduction in average debt outstanding from $54.4 million to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. This is offset by an increase in weighted average interest rate from 5.83% to 12.86% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020. The increase in weighted-average interest rate is due to deferred fees expensed in the current period in proportion to the reduction of the Fund’s borrowing capacity.

Interest expense was $0.5 million and $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Interest expense was comprised of amounts related to interest on debt amounts drawn down, unused credit line fees and amounts amortized from deferred fees incurred in conjunction with the loan facility. Interest expense decreased primarily due to the reduction in average debt outstanding from $63.1 million to $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. This is offset by an increase in weighted average interest rate from 5.79% to 9.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020. The increase in weighted-average interest rate is due to deferred fees expensed in the current period in proportion to the reduction of the Fund’s borrowing capacity.

Banking and professional fees were less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Banking and professional fees were $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The banking and professional fees were comprised of legal, audit, banking

and other professional fees. Banking and professional fees decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to the decrease in legal fees and audit fees.

Other operating expenses were less than $0.1 million for both three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Other operating expenses were $0.1 million for both six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. These expenses included director fees, custody fees, tax fees and other expenses related to the operations of the Fund.

Net investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.0 million and $7.6 million, respectively. Net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $2.3 million and $11.9 million, respectively.

Net realized loss from loans was $0.7 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Net realized loss from loans was $1.1 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The primary reason for the loss was non-accrual loan write offs.

Net realized gain (loss) from derivative instrument was less than $(0.1) million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Net realized gain (loss) from derivative instrument was $(0.1) million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This was actual cash paid to derivative instrument in the period as a result of actual LIBOR interest rate fluctuation.

Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from loans was $3.2 million and $(3.1) million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from loans was $1.7 million and $(3.6) million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The net change in unrealized loss from loans consisted of fair value adjustments taken against loans as a result of an improvement or deterioration in certain portfolio companies’ performance as well as reversal of prior adjustments on realized loan losses.

Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from derivative instrument was less than $0.1 million and $(0.2) million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from derivative instrument was less than $0.1 million and $(0.3) million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The net change in unrealized loss from derivative instrument consisted of fair market value adjustments to the interest rate swap. The decrease was due to the reversal of previous valuation adjustment. The unrealized gain was due to the reversal of prior fair value adjustments as a result of terminating the derivative instrument.

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $3.4 million and $4.0 million, respectively. On a per share basis, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $34.01 and $40.16 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $2.9 million and $7.7 million, respectively. On a per share basis, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $28.89 and $77.33 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources – June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019

The Fund is owned entirely by the Company. As of both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had subscriptions for capital in the amount of $375.0 million, of which all had been called and received as of both periods. Total capital contributed to the Fund was $323.2 million as of both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The change in cash for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:



	For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020			For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	33,886,143		$	90,300,071
Net cash used in financing activities	(33,254,743		)	(91,860,573		)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	631,400		$	(1,560,502	)

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 1.9% and 0.5% respectively, of the Fund’s net assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents.

On July 18, 2013, the Fund established a secured, syndicated revolving loan facility in an initial amount of up to $125.0 million led by Wells Fargo, N.A. and MUFG Union Bank, N.A. In November 2014, the debt facility size thereunder was increased to $255.0 million. All of the assets of the Fund collateralize borrowings by the Fund. The Fund pays interest on its borrowings and a fee on the unused portion of the facility. The facility was renewed and amended on October 30, 2017. The amended facility had a term of three years, but could be accelerated in the event of default, such as failure by the Fund to make timely interest or principal payments. Beginning March 29, 2019, the lenders’ commitments automatically and permanently reduce each fiscal quarter by an amount equal to 12.5% of the aggregate amount of such commitments. As of June 30, 2020, the debt facility size was $4.2 million. The Fund anticipates continued reduction of the facility as the borrowing base continues to decline. As of June 30, 2020, $4.2 million was outstanding under the facility.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Fund investments primarily consisted of venture loans. No amounts were disbursed under the Fund’s loan commitments during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net loan amounts outstanding after amortization and valuation adjustments decreased by $30.6 million for the same period.



As of	Cumulative Amount Disbursed	Principal Reductions and Fair Market Adjustments	Balance Outstanding - Fair Value	Unexpired Unfunded Commitments
June 30, 2020	$960.2 million	$904.8 million	$55.4 million	$ -
December 31, 2019	$960.2 million	$874.2 million	$86.0 million	$ -

Because venture loans are privately negotiated transactions, investments in these assets are relatively illiquid.

The Fund seeks to maintain the requirements to qualify for the special pass-through status available to RICs under the Code, and thus to be relieved of federal income tax on that part of its net investment income and realized capital gains that it distributes to its shareholder. To qualify as a RIC, the Fund must distribute to its shareholder for each taxable year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (consisting generally of net investment income and net short-term capital gain) (the “Distribution Requirement”). To the extent that the terms of the Fund’s venture loans provide for the receipt by the Fund of additional interest at the end of the loan term or provide for the receipt by the Fund of a purchase price for the asset at the end of the loan term (“residual income”), the Fund would be required to accrue such residual income over the life of the loan, and to include such accrued undistributed income in its gross income for each taxable year even if it receives no portion of such residual income in that year. Thus, in order to meet the Distribution Requirement and avoid payment of income taxes or an excise tax on undistributed income, the Fund may be required in a particular year to distribute as a dividend an amount in excess of the total amount of income it actually receives. Those distributions will be made from the Fund’s cash assets, from amounts received through amortization of loans or from borrowed funds.

As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the Fund had cash reserves of less than $01.40 million and approximately $4432.61 million in scheduled loan receivable payments over the next twelve months, which ~~together~~are ~~with~~sufficient ~~the~~to ~~Fund’s~~meet ~~borrowing~~the ~~capacity,~~operational expenses

(as described in Note 11, Subsequent Events).

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Fund’s business activities contain various elements of risk, of which Management considers interest rate and credit risk to be the principal types of risks. Because the Fund considers the management of risk essential to conducting its business and to maintaining profitability, the Fund’s risk management procedures are designed to identify and analyze the Fund’s risks, to set appropriate policies and limits and to continually monitor these risks and limits by means of reliable administrative and information systems and other policies and programs.

The Fund manages its market risk by maintaining a portfolio that is diverse by industry, size of investment, stage of development, and borrower. The Fund has limited exposure to public market price fluctuations as the Fund primarily invests in private business enterprises and distributes all equity investments upon receipt to the Company.

The Fund’s investments are subject to market risk based on several factors, including, but not limited to, the borrower’s credit history, available cash, support of the borrower’s underlying investors, available liquidity, “burn rate,” revenue income, security interest, secondary markets for collateral, the size of the loan, term of the loan and the ability to exit via initial public offering or merger and acquisition.

The Fund’s exposure to interest rate sensitivity is regularly monitored and analyzed by measuring the characteristics of assets and liabilities. The Fund utilizes various methods to assess interest rate risk in terms of the potential effect on interest income net of interest expense, the value of net assets and the value at risk in an effort to ensure that the Fund is insulated from any significant adverse effects from changes in interest rates. At ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the outstanding debt balance was $144.52 million at floating interest rate of 10.0017%~~, for which the Fund had a fixed interest rate swap in place at 1~~.~~90% on $20.9 million of the notional principal amount, leaving the Fund with exposure to interest rate increases on the over-hedged balance. The Fund may terminate the hedge in June 2020.~~

Because all of the Fund’s loans impose a fixed interest rate upon funding, changes in short-term interest rates will not directly affect interest income associated with the loan portfolio as of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020. Changes in short-term interest rates could also affect interest rate expense, realized gain from investments and interest on the Fund’s short-term investments.

Based on the Fund’s Condensed Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, the following table shows the approximate annualized increase (decrease) in components of net assets resulting from operations of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates, assuming no changes in investments, borrowings, ~~cash balances~~ and ~~interest~~cash ~~rate swap derivatives~~balances.

Effect of Interest Rate Change By	Other Interest and Other Income (Loss)			~~Gain~~Interest Income (~~Loss~~Expense) ~~from Derivative Instruments~~			~~Interest~~Total Income (~~Expense~~Loss)			~~Total Income (Loss)~~
(0.50)%	$	(24,~~108~~928	)	$	~~(104~~21,~~489~~000	)	$	7216,~~500~~072		$	~~(34,097~~	)

Additionally, a change in the interest rate may affect the value of the interest rate swap and effect net change in unrealized gain (loss) from derivative instruments. The amount of any such effect will be contingent upon market expectations for future interest rate changes. Any increases in expected future rates will increase the value of the interest rate swap while any rate decreases will decrease the value.

Although Management believes that the foregoing analysis is indicative of the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not take into consideration potential changes in the credit market, credit quality, size and composition of the assets in the portfolio. It also does not assume any new fundings to borrowers, repayments from borrowers or defaults on borrowings. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from the table above.

~~Because~~ the Fund currently borrows, its net investment income is highly dependent upon the difference between the rate at which it borrows and the rate at which it invests the amounts borrowed. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on the Fund’s investment activities and net investment income. The Fund’s exposure to movement in short-term interest rates stems from the Fund borrowing at a floating interest rate but then making loans with a fixed rate at the time the loans are extended. The Fund, therefore, attempts to limit its interest rate risk by acquiring interest rate swaps to hedge its interest rate exposure.40

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Fund may become party to certain lawsuits from time to time in the normal course of business. While the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot now be predicted with certainty, the Fund does not expect any such proceedings will have a material effect upon the Fund’s financial condition or results of operation. Management is not aware of any pending legal proceedings involving the Fund. The Fund is not a party to any material legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following discussion point should be read in conjunction with Item 1A - “Risk Factors” in the Fund’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a detailed description of the risks attendant to the Fund and its business. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors reported in the Fund’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Public Health Crises and Coronavirus Risk. Public health crises, such as the recent outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”), may have direct and indirect adverse impact on the Fund’s portfolio companies’ business operations and results of operations. Several countries and individual U.S. states have reacted to this rapidly evolving COVID-19 outbreak by instituting quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, travel restrictions, bans on public gathering, and ~~closure~~closures of a wide range of businesses beginning March 2020. These measures have had an adverse impact on the global economy and contributed to significant volatility in the financial markets.

Although some countries have begun to ease restrictions on business and social activity, the full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Fund’s portfolio companies’ business operations and results of operations is unknown at this time and will depend on many factors outside of the Fund’s control, including, without limitations, the timing, extent, trajectory and duration of the pandemic. Management is continuing to work with the Fund’s portfolio companies that may be directly or indirectly affected by the outbreak to evaluate the continued impact on the borrowers’ ability to make timely payments and creditworthiness.
