REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Boards of Directors and investors of
New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C.,
New Mountain Finance Corporation and
New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation
New York, New York

        We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets, liabilities and members' capital of New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C., including the consolidated schedules of investments as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of changes in members' capital, and cash flows for the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013 and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Also, we have audited the statements of assets and liabilities of New Mountain Finance Corporation and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets, cash flows and the financial highlights for the period from May 19, 2011(commencement of operations) to December 31, 2011 and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C., New Mountain Finance Corporation and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C. and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits of New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C. and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation included consideration of their internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of their internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion for New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C. and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of investments as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, by correspondence with the custodian, loan agent or borrower; where replies were not received, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        As discussed in Note 16, on February 3, 2014, New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings sold its remaining units in New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C. (the "Operating Company") and no longer owns any units of the Operating Company.

        In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations, its consolidated changes in members' capital, and its consolidated cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013 and the financial highlights for the each of the five years in the period ended December 31,2013; and the financial positions of New Mountain Finance Corporation and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of

their operations, changes in their net assets, their cash flows, and the financial highlights for the period from May 19, 2011(commencement of operations) to December 31, 2011 and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Combined Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C.,
the Financial Statements of New Mountain Finance Corporation and the Financial Statements
of New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation

December 31, 2013

(in thousands, except units/shares and per unit/share data)

        The information in these combined notes to the financial statements relates to each of the three separate registrants: New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C., New Mountain Finance Corporation and New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation (collectively, the "Companies"). Information that relates to an individual registrant will be specifically referenced by the respective company. None of the Companies makes any representation as to the information related solely to the other registrants other than itself.

Note 1. Formation and Business Purpose

        New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C. (the "Operating Company" or the "Master Fund") is a Delaware limited liability company. The Operating Company is externally managed and has elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). As such, the Operating Company is obligated to comply with certain regulatory requirements. The Operating Company intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes for so long as it has at least two members.

        The Operating Company is externally managed by New Mountain Finance Advisers BDC, L.L.C. (the "Investment Adviser"). New Mountain Finance Administration, L.L.C. (the "Administrator") provides the administrative services necessary for operations. The Investment Adviser and Administrator are wholly-owned subsidiaries of New Mountain Capital (defined as New Mountain Capital Group, L.L.C. and its affiliates). New Mountain Capital is a firm with a track record of investing in the middle market and with assets under management (which includes amounts committed, not all of which have been drawn down and invested to date) totaling more than $12.0 billion as of December 31, 2013, which includes total assets held by the Operating Company. New Mountain Capital focuses on investing in defensive growth companies across its private equity, public equity, and credit investment vehicles. The Operating Company, formerly known as New Mountain Guardian (Leveraged), L.L.C., was originally formed as a subsidiary of New Mountain Guardian AIV, L.P. ("Guardian AIV") by New Mountain Capital in October 2008. Guardian AIV was formed through an allocation of approximately $300.0 million of the $5.1 billion of commitments supporting New Mountain Partners III, L.P., a private equity fund managed by New Mountain Capital. In February 2009, New Mountain Capital formed a co-investment vehicle, New Mountain Guardian Partners, L.P., comprising $20.4 million of commitments. New Mountain Guardian (Leveraged), L.L.C. and New Mountain Guardian Partners, L.P., together with their respective direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, are defined as the "Predecessor Entities".

        New Mountain Finance Corporation ("NMFC") is a Delaware corporation that was originally incorporated on June 29, 2010. NMFC is a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. As such, NMFC is obligated to comply with certain regulatory requirements. NMFC has elected to be treated, and intends to comply with the requirements to continue to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code").

        New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation ("AIV Holdings") is a Delaware corporation that was originally incorporated on March 11, 2011. Guardian AIV, a Delaware limited partnership, is AIV Holdings' sole stockholder. AIV Holdings is a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. As such, AIV Holdings is

obligated to comply with certain regulatory requirements. AIV Holdings has elected to be treated, and intends to comply with the requirements to continue to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code.

        On May 19, 2011, NMFC priced its initial public offering (the "IPO") of 7,272,727 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $13.75 per share. Concurrently with the closing of the IPO and at the public offering price of $13.75 per share, NMFC sold an additional 2,172,000 shares of its common stock to certain executives and employees of, and other individuals affiliated with, New Mountain Capital in a concurrent private placement (the "Concurrent Private Placement"). Additionally, 1,252,964 shares were issued to the partners of New Mountain Guardian Partners, L.P. at that time for their ownership interest in the Predecessor Entities. In connection with NMFC's IPO and through a series of transactions, the Operating Company owns all of the operations of the Predecessor Entities, including all of the assets and liabilities related to such operations.

        NMFC and AIV Holdings are holding companies with no direct operations of their own, and their sole asset is their ownership in the Operating Company. NMFC and AIV Holdings each entered into a joinder agreement with respect to the Limited Liability Company Agreement, as amended and restated, of the Operating Company, pursuant to which NMFC and AIV Holdings were admitted as members of the Operating Company. NMFC acquired from the Operating Company, with the gross proceeds of the IPO and the Concurrent Private Placement, common membership units ("units") of the Operating Company (the number of units are equal to the number of shares of NMFC's common stock sold in the IPO and the Concurrent Private Placement). Additionally, NMFC received units of the Operating Company equal to the number of shares of common stock of NMFC issued to the partners of New Mountain Guardian Partners, L.P. Guardian AIV was the parent of the Operating Company prior to the IPO and, as a result of the transactions completed in connection with the IPO, obtained units in the Operating Company. Guardian AIV contributed its units in the Operating Company to its newly formed subsidiary, AIV Holdings, in exchange for common stock of AIV Holdings. AIV Holdings has the right to exchange all or any portion of its units in the Operating Company for shares of NMFC's common stock on a one-for-one basis at any time.

        Since NMFC's IPO, and through December 31, 2013, NMFC raised approximately $233,468 in net proceeds from additional offerings of common stock and issued shares of its common stock valued at approximately $249,576 on behalf of AIV Holdings for exchanged units. NMFC acquired from the Operating Company units of the Operating Company equal to the number of shares of NMFC's common stock sold in the additional offerings. As of December 31, 2013, NMFC and AIV Holdings owned approximately 94.4% and 5.6%, respectively, of the units of the Operating Company.

        The current structure was designed to generally prevent NMFC from being allocated taxable income with respect to unrecognized gains that existed at the time of the IPO in the Predecessor Entities' assets, and rather such amounts would be allocated generally to AIV Holdings. The result is that any distributions made to NMFC's stockholders that are attributable to such gains generally will not be treated as taxable dividends but rather as return of capital.

of New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation (Continued)

December 31, 2013

(in thousands, except units/shares and per unit/share data)

Note 1. Formation and Business Purpose (Continued)

        The Operating Company's investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation through the sourcing and origination of debt securities at all levels of the capital structure, including first and second lien debt, notes, bonds and mezzanine securities. In some cases, the Operating Company's investments may also include equity interests. The primary focus is in the debt of defensive growth companies, which are defined as generally exhibiting the following characteristics: (i) sustainable secular growth drivers, (ii) high barriers to competitive entry, (iii) high free cash flow after capital expenditure and working capital needs, (iv) high returns on assets and (v) niche market dominance.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

        Basis of accounting—The Companies' financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Operating Company consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiary, NMF SLF. NMFC and AIV Holdings do not consolidate the Operating Company. NMFC and AIV Holdings apply investment company master-feeder financial statement presentation, as described in Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies, ("ASC 946") to their interest in the Operating Company. NMFC and AIV Holdings observe that it is industry practice to follow the presentation prescribed for a master fund-feeder fund structure in ASC 946 in instances in which a master fund is owned by more than one feeder fund and that such presentation provides stockholders of NMFC and AIV Holdings with a clearer depiction of their investment in the master fund.

        The Companies' financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations and financial condition for all periods presented. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses when incurred. The financial results of the Operating Company's portfolio investments are not consolidated in the financial statements. Prior to the IPO, an affiliate of the Predecessor Entities paid a majority of the management and incentive fees. Historical operating expenses do not reflect the allocation of certain professional fees, administrative and other expenses that have been incurred following the completion of the IPO. Accordingly, the Operating Company's historical operating expenses are not comparable to its operating expenses after the completion of the IPO.

        The Companies' financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Article 6 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements have been included.

        Investments—The Operating Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with GAAP. Fair value is the amount 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. Investments are reflected on the Operating Company's Consolidated Statements of Assets, Liabilities and Members' Capital at fair value, with changes in unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected in the Operating Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Net change in unrealized

appreciation (depreciation) of investments" and realizations on portfolio investments reflected in the Operating Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Net realized gains (losses) on investments".

        The Operating Company values its assets on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required under the 1940 Act. In all cases, the Operating Company's board of directors is ultimately and solely responsible for determining the fair value of the portfolio investments on a quarterly basis in good faith, including investments that are not publicly traded, those whose market prices are not readily available and any other situation where its portfolio investments require a fair value determination. Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. The Operating Company's quarterly valuation procedures are set forth in more detail below:

(in thousands, except units/shares and per unit/share data)

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

        For investments in revolving credit facilities and delayed draw commitments, the cost basis of the funded investments purchased is offset by any netbacks received for any unfunded portion on the total balance committed. The fair value is also adjusted for the price appreciation or depreciation on the unfunded portion. As a result, the purchase of commitments not completely funded may result in a negative fair value until it is called and funded.

        The values assigned to investments are based upon available information and do not necessarily represent amounts which might ultimately be realized, since such amounts depend on future circumstances and cannot be reasonably determined until the individual positions are liquidated. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Operating Company's investments may fluctuate from period to period and the fluctuations could be material.

        NMFC and AIV Holdings are holding companies with no direct operations of their own, and their sole asset is their ownership in the Operating Company. NMFC's and AIV Holdings' investments in the Operating Company are carried at fair value and represent the respective pro-rata interest in the net assets of the Operating Company as of the applicable reporting date. NMFC and AIV Holdings value their ownership interest on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required under the 1940 Act.

        See Note 3, Investments, for further discussion relating to investments.

        Cash and cash equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term, highly liquid investments. The Companies define cash equivalents as securities that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and so near maturity that there is insignificant risk of changes in value. Generally, these securities have original maturities of three months or less.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

        Interest and other credit facility expenses—Interest and other credit facility fees are recorded on an accrual basis by the Operating Company. See Note 7, Borrowing Facilities, for details.

        Deferred credit facility costs—The deferred credit facility costs of the Operating Company consist of capitalized expenses related to the origination and amending of the Operating Company's existing credit facilities. The Operating Company amortizes these costs into expense using the straight-line method over the stated life of the related credit facility. See Note 7, Borrowing Facilities, for details.

        Income taxes—The Operating Company is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and as such is generally not subject to federal or state and local income taxes except with respect to state source income received from underlying investments. The partners are individually responsible for reporting income or loss based on their respective share of the revenues and expenses.

        NMFC and AIV Holdings have elected to be treated, and intend to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as RICs under subchapter M of the Code. As RICs, NMFC and AIV Holdings are not subject to federal income tax on the portion of taxable income and gains timely distributed to stockholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes has been recorded.

        To continue to qualify as RICs, NMFC and AIV Holdings are required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests in addition to distributing at least 90.0% of their respective investment

company taxable income, as defined by the Code. Since federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes.

        Differences between taxable income and the results of operations for financial reporting purposes may be permanent or temporary in nature. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

        For federal income tax purposes, distributions paid to stockholders of NMFC and AIV Holdings are reported as ordinary income, return of capital, long term capital gains or a combination thereof.

        NMFC and AIV Holdings will be subject to a 4.0% nondeductible federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless NMFC and AIV Holdings distribute, in a timely manner as required by the Code, an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98.0% of their respective net ordinary income earned for the calendar year and (2) 98.2% of their respective capital gain net income for the one-year period ending October 31 in the calendar year.

        The Companies have adopted the Income Taxes topic of the Codification ("ASC 740"). ASC 740 provides guidance for income taxes, including how uncertain income tax positions should be recognized, measured, and disclosed in the financial statements. Based on their analyses, the Companies have determined that there were no material uncertain income tax positions through December 31, 2013. The 2011, 2012 and 2013 tax years remain subject to examination by the U.S. federal, state, and local tax authorities.

        Dividends—Distributions to common unit holders of the Operating Company and common stockholders of NMFC and AIV Holdings are recorded on the record date as set by the respective board of directors. In order for NMFC and AIV Holdings to pay a dividend or other distribution to holders of their common stock, it must be accompanied by a prior distribution by the Operating Company to all of its unit holders. The Operating Company intends to make distributions to its unit holders that will be sufficient to enable NMFC and AIV Holdings to pay quarterly distributions to their stockholders and to maintain their status as RICs. NMFC and AIV Holdings intend to distribute approximately all of their portion of the Operating Company's adjusted net investment income (see Note 5, Agreements) on a quarterly basis and substantially all of their portion of the Operating Company's taxable income on an annual basis, except that NMFC may retain certain net capital gains for reinvestment.

        Under certain circumstances, the distributions that the Operating Company makes to its members may not be sufficient for AIV Holdings to satisfy the annual distribution requirement necessary for AIV Holdings to continue to qualify as a RIC. In that case, it is expected that Guardian AIV would consent to be treated as if it received distributions from AIV Holdings sufficient to satisfy the annual distribution requirement. Guardian AIV would be required to include the consent dividend in its taxable income as a dividend from AIV Holdings, which would result in phantom (i.e., non-cash) taxable income to Guardian AIV. AIV Holdings intends to make quarterly distributions to Guardian AIV, its sole stockholder, out of assets legally available for distribution each quarter.

(in thousands, except units/shares and per unit/share data)

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

        The Operating Company and NMFC are required to take certain actions in order to maintain, at all times, a one-to-one ratio between the number of units held by NMFC and the number of shares of NMFC's common stock outstanding. NMFC has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides on behalf of its stockholders for reinvestment of any distributions declared, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. Cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of NMFC's common stock will be automatically reinvested by NMFC into additional units of the Operating Company. In addition, AIV Holdings does not intend to reinvest any distributions received from the Operating Company in additional units of the Operating Company.

        NMFC applies the following in implementing the dividend reinvestment plan. If the price at which newly issued shares are to be credited to stockholders' accounts is greater than 110.0% of the last determined net asset value of the shares, NMFC will use only newly issued shares to implement its dividend reinvestment plan. Under such circumstances, the number of shares to be issued to a stockholder is determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such stockholder by the market price per share of NMFC's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on the distribution payment date. Market price per share on that date will be the closing price for such shares on the NYSE or, if no sale is reported for such day, the average of their electronically reported bid and asked prices. If NMFC uses newly issued shares to implement the plan, NMFC will receive, on a one-for-one basis, additional units of the Operating Company in exchange for cash distributions that are reinvested in shares of NMFC's common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan.

        If the price at which newly issued shares are to be credited to stockholders' accounts is less than 110.0% of the last determined net asset value of the shares, NMFC will either issue new shares or instruct the plan administrator to purchase shares in the open market to satisfy the additional shares required. Shares purchased in open market transactions by the plan administrator will be allocated to a stockholder based on the average purchase price, excluding any brokerage charges or other charges, of all shares of common stock purchased in the open market. The number of shares of NMFC's common stock to be outstanding after giving effect to payment of the distribution cannot be established until the value per share at which additional shares will be issued has been determined and elections of NMFC's stockholders have been tabulated.

        Foreign securities—The accounting records of the Operating Company are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies on the respective dates of the transactions. The Operating Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with "Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments" and "Net realized gains (losses) on investments" in the Operating Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

        Investments denominated in foreign currencies may be negatively affected by movements in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and such foreign currencies. This movement is beyond the control of the Operating Company and cannot be predicted.

        Use of estimates—The preparation of the Companies' financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Companies' financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and other metrics used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ from the estimates used, and the differences could be material.

        Dividend income recorded related to distributions received from flow-through investments is an accounting estimate based on the most recent estimate of the tax treatment of the distribution. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Operating Company changed an accounting estimate related to the classification of dividend income for a distribution recorded in the prior quarter from one of the Operating Company's warrant investments. Based on tax projections received during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Operating Company reduced the warrant cost basis by $466 and corresponding dividend income previously recorded by $1,799, and recorded a realized gain of $1,333 to agree to the tax treatment on the investment. This resulted in a reclass of $360 from incentive fee to capital gains incentive fee. Based on updated tax projections received during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, the Operating Company increased dividend income previously recorded by $224 and reduced the realized gain previously recorded by $224 to agree to the tax treatment on the investment. This resulted in a reclass of $45 from capital gains incentive fee to incentive fee.

        During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, the Operating Company sold its first lien position in ATI Acquisition Company, resulting in a realized loss of $4,306. Prior to the sale, this investment had a cost basis of $4,306, a zero fair value and total unearned interest income of $611 for the year ended. As of December 31, 2013, the Operating Company's two super priority first lien positions in ATI Acquisition Company remained on non-accrual status due to the inability of the portfolio company to service its interest payment for the year then ended and uncertainty about its ability to pay such amounts in the future. During the third quarter of 2013, the Operating Company received preferred shares and warrants in Ancora Acquisition LLC, in relation to the two super priority first lien positions in ATI Acquisition Company. As of December 31, 2013, the Operating Company's investment in ATI Acquisition Company and Ancora Acquisition LLC had an aggregate cost basis of $1,611, an aggregate fair value of $419 and total unearned interest income of $316 for the year then ended. As of December 31, 2012, the Operating Company's original first lien position in ATI Acquisition Company was put on non-accrual status, with a cost basis of $4,306, a fair value of zero and total unearned interest income of $653 for the year then ended. The Operating Company's two super priority first lien debt investments in ATI Acquisition Company had a combined cost basis of $1,611 and a combined fair value of $752 as of December 31, 2012. During the third quarter of 2012, the Operating Company placed the super priority first lien positions on non-accrual status as well, resulting in total unearned interest income of $310 for the year ended December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2012, the Operating Company's total investment in ATI Acquisition Company had an aggregate cost basis of

$5,917 and an aggregate fair value of $752. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, unrealized gains (losses) include a fee that the Operating Company would receive upon maturity of the two super priority first lien debt investments.

        As of December 31, 2013, the Operating Company had unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities and bridge facilities of $15,500 and $0, respectively. The Operating Company did not have any unfunded commitments in the form of a delayed draw or other future funding commitments as of December 31, 2013. The unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities are disclosed on the Operating Company's Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of December 31, 2013.

        As of December 31, 2012, the Operating Company had unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities and bridge facilities of $10,500 and $0, respectively. The Operating Company did not have any unfunded commitments in the form of a delayed draw or other future funding commitments as of December 31, 2012. The unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities are disclosed on the Operating Company's Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of December 31, 2012.

        Investment risk factors—First and second lien debt that the Operating Company invests in is entirely, or almost entirely, rated below investment grade or may be unrated. These loans are considered speculative because of the credit risk of the issuers. Such issuers are considered more likely than investment grade issuers to default on their payments of interest and principal and such defaults could reduce the net asset value and income distributions of the Operating Company. First and second lien debt may also lose significant market value before a default occurs. Furthermore, an active trading market may not exist for these first and second lien loans. This illiquidity may make it more difficult to value the debt.

        Subordinated debt is generally subject to similar risks as those associated with first and second lien debt, except that such debt is subordinated in payment and /or lower in lien priority. Subordinated debt is subject to the additional risk that the cash flow of the borrower and the property securing the debt, if any, may be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to the senior secured and unsecured obligations of the borrower.

Note 4. Fair Value

        Fair value is the amount 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. Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring investments at fair value. The hierarchy classifies the inputs used in measuring fair value into three levels as follows:

December 31, 2013

(in thousands, except units/shares and per unit/share data)

Note 4. Fair Value (Continued)

        The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels. In all instances when the inputs fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. As such, a Level III fair value measurement may include inputs that are both observable (Levels I and II) and unobservable (Level III). Gains and losses for such assets categorized within the Level III table below may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels II and III) and unobservable inputs (Level III).

        The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant judgment or estimation by management and consideration of factors specific to each investment. A review of the fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in the transfer of certain investments within the fair value hierarchy from period to period. Reclassifications impacting the fair value hierarchy are reported as transfers in/out of the respective leveling categories as of the beginning of the quarter in which the reclassifications occur.

        Except as noted in the tables above, there were no other transfers in or out of Level I, II, or III during the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Transfers into Level III occurred as quotations obtained through pricing services were not deemed representative of fair value as of the balance sheet date and such assets were internally valued. As quotations obtained through pricing services were substantiated through additional market sources, investments were transferred out of Level III. The Operating Company invests in revolving credit facilities. These investments are categorized as Level III investments as these assets are not actively traded and their fair values are often implied by the term loans of the respective portfolio companies.

Note 4. Fair Value (Continued)

        The Operating Company generally uses the following framework when determining the fair value of investments where there are little, if any, market activity or observable pricing inputs.

        Company Performance, Financial Review, and Analysis:    Prior to investment, as part of its due diligence process, the Operating Company evaluates the overall performance and financial stability of the portfolio company. Post investment, the Operating Company analyzes each portfolio company's current operating performance and relevant financial trends versus prior year and budgeted results, including, but not limited to, factors affecting its revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") growth, margin trends, liquidity position, covenant compliance and changes to its capital structure. The Operating Company also attempts to identify and subsequently track any developments at the portfolio company, within its customer or vendor base or within the industry or the macroeconomic environment, generally, that may alter any material element of its original investment thesis. This analysis is specific to each portfolio company. The Operating Company leverages the knowledge gained from its original due diligence process, augmented by this subsequent monitoring, to continually refine its outlook for each of its portfolio companies and ultimately form the valuation of its investment in each portfolio company. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent sale occurs, the Operating Company will consider the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate the private valuation.

        Market Based Approach:    The Operating Company typically estimates the total enterprise value of each portfolio company by utilizing market value cash flow (EBITDA) multiples of publicly traded comparable companies. The Operating Company considers numerous factors when selecting the appropriate companies whose trading multiples are used to value its portfolio companies. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of organization, similarity to the business being valued, relevant risk factors, as well as size, profitability and growth expectations. The Operating Company generally applies an average of various relevant comparable company EBITDA multiples to the portfolio company's latest twelve month ("LTM") EBITDA or projected EBITDA to calculate portfolio company enterprise value. In applying the market based approach as of December 31, 2013, the Operating Company used the relevant EBITDA ranges set forth in the table below to determine the enterprise value of investments in six of its portfolio companies. The Operating Company believes this was a reasonable range in light of current comparable company trading levels and the specific companies involved.

        Income Based Approach:    The Operating Company also typically uses a discounted cash flow analysis to estimate the fair value of the investment. Projected cash flows represent the relevant security's contractual interest, fee and principal payments plus the assumption of full principal recovery at the investment's expected maturity date. These cash flows are discounted at a rate established utilizing a yield calibration approach, which incorporates changes in the credit quality (as measured by relevant statistics) of the portfolio company, as compared to changes in the yield associated with comparable credit quality market indices, between the date of origination and the valuation date.

        Based on a comparison to similar BDC credit facilities, the terms and conditions of the Holdings Credit Facility and the SLF Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7, Borrowing Facilities) are representative of market. The carrying values of the Holdings Credit Facility and SLF Credit Facility approximate fair value as of December 31, 2013, as both facilities are continually monitored and examined by both the borrower and the lender. Both facilities were amended and restated during the year ended December 31, 2012 to lower the applicable interest rate spread by 0.25% and to increase the maximum amount of revolving borrowings available under the respective facilities. Additionally for the year ended December 31, 2013, the Holdings Credit Facility was amended and restated to further increase the maximum amount of revolving borrowings available. See Note 7, Borrowing Facilities, for details. The fair value of other financial assets and liabilities approximates their carrying value based on the short term nature of these items. The fair value disclosures discussed in this paragraph are considered Level III.

        Fair value risk factors—The Operating Company seeks investment opportunities that offer the possibility of attaining substantial capital appreciation. Certain events particular to each industry in which the Operating Company's portfolio companies conduct their operations, as well as general economic and political conditions, may have a significant negative impact on the operations and profitability of the Operating Company's investments and/or on the fair value of the Operating Company's investments. The Operating Company's investments are subject to the risk of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal, resulting in a reduction in income to the Operating Company and thus the income of NMFC and AIV Holdings, and their corresponding fair valuations. Also, there may be risk associated with the concentration of investments in one geographic region or in certain industries. These events are beyond the control of the Operating Company and cannot be predicted. Furthermore, the ability to liquidate investments and realize value is subject to uncertainties.

Note 5. Agreements

        On May 19, 2011, NMFC entered into a joinder agreement with respect to the Limited Liability Company Agreement, as amended and restated, of the Operating Company pursuant to which NMFC was admitted as a member of the Operating Company and agreed to acquire from the Operating Company a number of units of the Operating Company equal to the number of shares of common stock outstanding of NMFC. Additionally on May 19, 2011, in connection with the contribution by Guardian AIV of its units to AIV Holdings, AIV Holdings entered into a joinder agreement with respect to the Limited Liability Company Agreement, as amended and restated, of the Operating Company pursuant to which AIV Holdings was also admitted as a member of the Operating Company.

        The Operating Company entered into an investment advisory and management agreement, as amended and restated (the "Investment Management Agreement") with the Investment Adviser. Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Investment Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Operating Company. For providing these services, the Investment Adviser receives a fee from the Operating Company, consisting of two components—a base management fee and an incentive fee.

        The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of the Operating Company's gross assets less (i) the borrowings under the SLF Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7, Borrowing Facilities) and (ii) cash and cash equivalents. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears, and is calculated based on the average value of the Operating Company's gross assets, borrowings under the SLF Credit Facility, and cash and cash equivalents at the end of each of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and appropriately adjusted on a pro rata basis for any equity capital raises or repurchases during the current calendar quarter.

        The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and equals 20.0% of the Operating Company's "Pre-Incentive Fee Adjusted Net Investment Income" for the immediately preceding quarter, subject to a "preferred return", or "hurdle", and a "catch-up" feature. "Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income" means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Operating Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Operating Company's operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under an administration agreement, as amended and restated (the "Administration Agreement"), with the Administrator, and any interest expense and distributions paid on any issued and outstanding preferred membership units (of which there are none as of December 31, 2013), but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Operating Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

        Under GAAP, NMFC's IPO did not step-up the cost basis of the Operating Company's existing investments to fair market value at the IPO date. Since the total value of the Operating Company's investments at the time of the IPO was greater than the investments' cost basis, a larger amount of

amortization of purchase or original issue discount, as well as different amounts in realized gain and unrealized appreciation, may be recognized under GAAP in each period than if the step-up had occurred. This will remain until such predecessor investments are sold or mature in the future. The Operating Company tracks the transferred (or fair market) value of each of its investments as of the time of the IPO and, for purposes of the incentive fee calculation, adjusts Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income to reflect the amortization of purchase or original issue discount on the Operating Company's investments as if each investment was purchased at the date of the IPO, or stepped up to fair market value. This is defined as "Pre-Incentive Fee Adjusted Net Investment Income". The Operating Company also uses the transferred (or fair market) value of each of its investments as of the time of the IPO to adjust capital gains ("Adjusted Realized Capital Gains") or losses ("Adjusted Realized Capital Losses") and unrealized capital appreciation ("Adjusted Unrealized Capital Appreciation") and unrealized capital depreciation ("Adjusted Unrealized Capital Depreciation").

        Pre-Incentive Fee Adjusted Net Investment Income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Operating Company's net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, will be compared to a "hurdle rate" of 2.0% per quarter (8.0% annualized), subject to a "catch-up" provision measured as of the end of each calendar quarter. The hurdle rate is appropriately pro-rated for any partial periods. The calculation of the Operating Company's incentive fee with respect to the Pre-Incentive Fee Adjusted Net Investment Income for each quarter is as follows:

        The second part will be determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Management Agreement) and will equal 20.0% of the Operating Company's Adjusted Realized Capital Gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all Adjusted Realized Capital Losses and Adjusted

Unrealized Capital Depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fee.

        In accordance with GAAP, the Operating Company accrues a hypothetical capital gains incentive fee based upon the cumulative net Adjusted Realized Capital Gains and Adjusted Realized Capital Losses and the cumulative net Adjusted Unrealized Capital Appreciation and Adjusted Unrealized Capital Depreciation on investments held at the end of each period. Actual amounts paid to the Investment Adviser are consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and are based only on actual Adjusted Realized Capital Gains computed net of all Adjusted Realized Capital Losses and Adjusted Unrealized Capital Depreciation on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of each calendar year as if the entire portfolio was sold at fair value.

        The Operating Company has revised its presentation of incentive fees on the Consolidated Statements of Assets, Liabilities and Members' Capital and the Consolidated Statements of Operations to disclose the two parts of the incentive fee incurred by the Operating Company for net investment income related incentive fees and capital gains related incentive fees.

        The following table summarizes the management fees and incentive fees incurred by the Operating Company for the years ended December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

For the period from May 19, 2011 (effective date of the Investment Management Agreement) to December 31, 2011.

(2)
As of December 31, 2013, approximately $1,113 of capital gains incentive fees was owed under the Investment Management Agreement, as cumulative net Adjusted Realized Capital Gains exceeded cumulative Adjusted Unrealized Capital Depreciation. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, no actual capital gains incentive fee was owed under the Investment Management Agreement, as cumulative net Adjusted Realized Capital Gains did not exceed cumulative Adjusted Unrealized Capital Depreciation. As of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, no payments have been made relating to the capital gains incentive fee.

        The Operating Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations below are adjusted as if the step-up in cost basis to fair market value had occurred at the IPO date, May 19, 2011.

        The Companies, the Investment Adviser and the Administrator have also entered into a Trademark License Agreement, as amended, with New Mountain Capital, L.L.C., pursuant to which New Mountain Capital, L.L.C. has agreed to grant the Companies, the Investment Adviser and the Administrator, a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the "New Mountain" and the "New Mountain Finance" names. Under the Trademark License Agreement, as amended, subject to certain conditions, the Companies, the Investment Adviser and the Administrator will have a right to use the "New Mountain" and "New Mountain Finance" names, for so long as the Investment Adviser or one of its affiliates remains the investment adviser of the Operating Company. Other than with respect to this limited license, the Companies, the Investment Adviser and the Administrator will have no legal right to the "New Mountain" or the "New Mountain Finance" names.

        NMFC entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with AIV Holdings, Steven B. Klinsky (the Chairman of the Companies' board of directors), an entity related to Steven B. Klinsky and the Investment Adviser. Subject to several exceptions, AIV Holdings and the Investment Adviser have the right to require NMFC to register for public resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act of 1933"), all registerable securities that are held by any of them and that they request to be registered. Registerable securities subject to the Registration Rights Agreement are shares of NMFC's common stock issued or issuable in exchange for units and any other shares of NMFC's common stock held by AIV Holdings, the Investment Adviser and any of their transferees. The rights under the Registration Rights Agreement can be conditionally exercised by AIV Holdings or the Investment Adviser, meaning that prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement related to the shares, AIV Holdings or the Investment Adviser can withdraw their request to have the shares registered. AIV Holdings and the Investment Adviser may each assign their rights to any person that acquires registerable securities subject to the Registration Rights Agreement and who agrees to be

bound by the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. Steven B. Klinsky and a related entity will have the right to "piggyback", or include their own registerable securities in such a registration. Shares held by AIV Holdings and Steven B. Klinsky were registered on a shelf registration statement on Form N-2.

        AIV Holdings and the Investment Adviser may require NMFC to use its reasonable best efforts to register under the Securities Act of 1933 all or any portion of these registerable securities upon a "demand request". The demand registration rights are subject to certain limitations.

        The Registration Rights Agreement includes limited blackout and suspension periods. In addition, AIV Holdings and the Investment Adviser may also require NMFC to file a shelf registration statement on Form N-2 for the resale of their registerable securities if NMFC is eligible to use Form N-2 at that time.

        Holders of registerable securities have "piggyback" registration rights, including AIV Holdings, which means that these holders may include their respective shares in any future registrations of NMFC's equity securities, whether or not that registration relates to a primary offering by NMFC or a secondary offering by or on behalf of any of NMFC's stockholders. AIV Holdings, the Investment Adviser and Steven B. Klinsky (and a related entity) have priority over NMFC in any registration that is an underwritten offering.

        AIV Holdings, the Investment Adviser and Steven B. Klinsky (and a related entity) will be responsible for the expenses of any demand registration (including underwriters' discounts or commissions) and their pro-rata share of any "piggyback" registration. NMFC has agreed to indemnify AIV Holdings, the Investment Adviser and Steven B. Klinsky (and a related entity) with respect to liabilities resulting from untrue statements or omissions in any registration statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, other than untrue statements or omissions resulting from information furnished to NMFC by such parties. AIV Holdings, the Investment Adviser and Steven B. Klinsky (and a related entity) have also agreed to indemnify NMFC with respect to liabilities resulting from untrue statements or omissions furnished by them to NMFC relating to them in any registration statement.

Note 6. Related Parties

        The Companies have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties. NMFC and AIV Holdings own all the outstanding units of the Operating Company. As of December 31, 2013, NMFC and AIV Holdings own approximately 94.4% and 5.6%, respectively, of the units of the Operating Company.

        The Operating Company has entered into the Investment Management Agreement with the Investment Adviser, a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Mountain Capital. Therefore, New Mountain Capital is entitled to any profits earned by the Investment Adviser, which includes any fees payable to the Investment Adviser under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, less expenses incurred by the Investment Adviser in performing its services under the Investment Management Agreement.

Note 6. Related Parties (Continued)

        The Companies have entered into an Administration Agreement with the Administrator, a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Mountain Capital. The Administrator arranges office space for the Companies and provides office equipment and administrative services necessary to conduct their respective day-to-day operations pursuant to the Administration Agreement. The Operating Company reimburses the Administrator for the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations to the Companies under the Administration Agreement including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing administrative, finance and compliance functions, and the compensation of the Companies' chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. Pursuant to the Administration Agreement and further restricted by the Operating Company, expenses payable to the Administrator by the Operating Company as well as other direct and indirect expenses (excluding interest, other credit facility expenses, trading expenses and management and incentive fees) have been capped at $3,500 for the time period from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2013 and capped at $4,250 for the time period from April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. The expense cap will expire on March 31, 2014. Thereafter, the Administrator may, in its own discretion, submit to the Operating Company for reimbursement some or all of the expenses that the Administrator has incurred on behalf of the Operating Company during any quarterly period. As a result, the amount of expenses for which the Operating Company will have to reimburse the Administrator may fluctuate in future quarterly periods and there can be no assurance given as to when, or if, the Administrator may determine to limit the expenses that the Administrator submits to the Operating Company for reimbursement in the future. However, it is expected that the Administrator will continue to support part of the expense burden of the Operating Company in the near future.

        The Companies, the Investment Adviser and the Administrator have entered into a royalty-free Trademark License Agreement, as amended, with New Mountain Capital, L.L.C., pursuant to which New Mountain Capital, L.L.C. has agreed to grant the Companies, the Investment Adviser and the Administrator, a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name "New Mountain" and "New Mountain Finance".

        The Companies have adopted a formal code of ethics that governs the conduct of their respective officers and directors. These officers and directors also remain subject to the duties imposed by the 1940 Act, the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act.

        The Investment Adviser and its affiliates may also manage other funds in the future that may have investment mandates that are similar, in whole and in part, with the Operating Company' investment mandates. The Investment Adviser and its affiliates may determine that an investment is appropriate for the Operating Company and for one or more of those other funds. In such event, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, the Investment Adviser or its affiliates may determine that the Operating Company should invest side-by-side with one or more other funds. Any such investments will be made only to the extent permitted by applicable law and interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission and its staff, and consistent with the Investment Adviser's allocation procedures.

Note 6. Related Parties (Continued)

        Concurrently with the IPO, NMFC sold an additional 2,172,000 shares of its common stock to certain executives and employees of, and other individuals affiliated with, New Mountain Capital in the Concurrent Private Placement.

Note 7. Borrowing Facilities

        Holdings Credit Facility—The Loan and Security Agreement, as amended and restated, dated May 19, 2011 (the "Holdings Credit Facility") among the Operating Company as the Borrower and Collateral Administrator, Wells Fargo Securities, L.L.C. as the Administrative Agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the Collateral Custodian, is structured as a revolving credit facility and matures on October 27, 2016, as amended on May 8, 2012. The Operating Company became a party to the Holdings Credit Facility upon the IPO of NMFC. The Holdings Credit Facility amends and restates the credit facility of the Predecessor Entities (the "Predecessor Credit Facility").

        The maximum amount of revolving borrowings available under the Holdings Credit Facility is $280,000, as amended on October 28, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Operating Company was permitted to borrow up to 45.0% or 25.0% of the purchase price of pledged first lien or non-first lien debt securities, and up to 70.0% and 45.0% of the purchase price of specified first lien debt securities and specified non-first lien debt securities, respectively, subject to approval by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The Holdings Credit Facility is collateralized by all of the investments of the Operating Company on an investment by investment basis. All fees associated with the origination or upsizing of the Holdings Credit Facility are capitalized on the Operating Company's Consolidated Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Members' Capital and charged against income as other credit facility expenses over the life of the Holdings Credit Facility. The Holdings Credit Facility contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, including the occurrence of a change in control. In addition, the Holdings Credit Facility requires the Operating Company to maintain a minimum asset coverage ratio. However, the covenants are generally not tied to mark to market fluctuations in the prices of the Operating Company's investments, but rather to the performance of the underlying portfolio companies.

        The Holdings Credit Facility bears interest at a rate of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 2.75% per annum, as amended on May 8, 2012, and charges a non-usage fee, based on the unused facility amount multiplied by the Non-Usage Fee Rate (as defined in the credit agreement).

        The following table summarizes the interest expense and non-usage fees incurred by the Operating Company on the Holdings Credit Facility for the years ended December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

    2.9 %   3.1 %   3.2 %

Average debt outstanding

  $ 184,124   $ 133,600   $ 61,561  

        The outstanding balance of Holdings Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $221,849, $206,938 and $129,038, respectively, and the Operating Company was not aware of any instances of non-compliance related to the Holdings Credit Facility on such dates.

        SLF Credit Facility—NMF SLF's Loan and Security Agreement, as amended and restated, dated October 27, 2010 (the "SLF Credit Facility") among NMF SLF as the Borrower, the Operating Company as the Collateral Administrator, Wells Fargo Securities, L.L.C. as the Administrative Agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the Collateral Custodian, is structured as a revolving credit facility and matures on October 27, 2016, as amended on May 8, 2012. The maximum amount of revolving borrowings available under the SLF Credit Facility is $215,000, as amended on December 18, 2012. The loan is non-recourse to the Operating Company and secured by all assets owned by the borrower on an investment by investment basis. All fees associated with the origination or upsizing of the SLF Credit Facility are capitalized on the Consolidated Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Members' Capital and charged against income as other credit facility expenses over the life of the SLF Credit Facility. The SLF Credit Facility contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, including the occurrence of a change in control. The covenants are generally not tied to mark to market fluctuations in the prices of our investments, but rather to the performance of the underlying portfolio companies. Due to an amendment to the SLF Credit Facility on October 27, 2011, NMF SLF is no longer restricted from the purchase or sale of loans with an affiliate. Therefore, specified loans can be moved as collateral between the Holdings Credit Facility and the SLF Credit Facility.

        As of December 31, 2013, the SLF Credit Facility permits borrowings of up to 70.0% of the purchase price of pledged first lien debt securities and up to 25.0% of the purchase price of specified second lien loans, of which, up to 25.0% of the aggregate outstanding loan balance of all pledged debt securities in the SLF Credit Facility is allowed to be derived from second lien loans, subject to approval by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as amended on March 11, 2013.

        The SLF Credit Facility bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum for first lien loans and 2.75% for second lien loans, respectively, as amended on March 11, 2013. A non-usage fee is paid, based on the unused facility amount multiplied by the Non-Usage Fee Rate (as defined in the credit agreement).

        The following table summarizes the interest expense and non-usage fees incurred by the Operating Company on the SLF Credit Facility for the years ended December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

        The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $214,668, $214,262 and $165,928, respectively, and NMF SLF was not aware of any instances of non-compliance related to the SLF Credit Facility on such dates.

        Leverage risk factors—The Operating Company utilizes and may utilize leverage to the maximum extent permitted by the law for investment and other general business purposes. The Operating Company's lenders will have fixed dollar claims on certain assets that are superior to the claims of the Operating Company's unit holders, and therefore NMFC's common stockholders, and the Operating Company would expect such lenders to seek recovery against these assets in the event of a default. The use of leverage also magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested. Leverage may magnify interest rate risk (particularly on the Operating Company's fixed-rate investments), which is the risk that the prices of portfolio investments will fall or rise if market interest rates for those types of securities rise or fall. As a result, leverage may cause greater changes in the Operating Company's net asset value. Similarly, leverage may cause a sharper decline in the Operating Company's income than if the Operating Company had not borrowed. Such a decline could negatively affect the Operating Company's ability to make dividend payments to its unit holders. Leverage is generally considered a speculative investment technique. The Operating Company's ability to service any debt incurred will depend largely on financial performance and will be subject to prevailing economic conditions and competitive pressures.

Note 8. Regulation

        NMFC and AIV Holdings have elected to be treated, and intend to comply with the requirements to continue to qualify annually, as RICs under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to continue to qualify as RICs, among other things, NMFC and AIV Holdings are required to timely distribute to their stockholders at least 90.0% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. NMFC and AIV Holdings, among other things, intend to make and continue to make the requisite distributions to their stockholders, which will generally relieve NMFC and AIV Holdings from U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes (excluding excise taxes which may be imposed under the Code). However, under certain circumstances, the distributions that the Operating Company makes to its members may not be sufficient for AIV Holdings to satisfy the annual distribution requirement necessary for AIV Holdings to continue to qualify as a RIC. In that case, it is expected that Guardian

Note 8. Regulation (Continued)

AIV would consent to be treated as if it received distributions from AIV Holdings sufficient to satisfy the annual distribution requirement. Guardian AIV would be required to include the consent dividend in its taxable income as dividend from AIV Holdings, which would result in phantom (i.e., non-cash) taxable income to Guardian AIV.

        Additionally as BDCs, the Companies must not acquire any assets other than "qualifying assets" specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70.0% of its total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions).

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

        In the normal course of business, the Companies may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Operating Company may also enter into future funding commitments such as revolving credit facilities, bridge financing commitments, or delayed draw commitments. As of December 31, 2013, the Operating Company had unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities of $15,500, and no outstanding bridge financing commitments or other future funding commitments. The unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities are disclosed on the Operating Company's Consolidated Schedule of Investments. As of December 31, 2012, the Operating Company had unfunded commitments on revolving credit facilities of $10,500 and no outstanding bridge financing commitments or other future funding commitments, all of which are disclosed on the Operating Company's Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

        The Operating Company also has revolving borrowings available under the Holdings Credit Facility and the SLF Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013. See Note 7, Borrowing Facilities, for details.

        The Operating Company may from time to time enter into financing commitment letters. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Operating Company did not enter into any commitment letters to purchase debt investments, which could require funding in the future.

Note 10. Distributions

        Differences between taxable income and the results of operations for financial reporting purposes may be permanent or temporary in nature. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. During the years ended December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, NMFC did not have any reclassifications of amounts for book purposes arising from permanent book/tax differences. During the years ended December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, AIV Holdings had

As of December 31, 2013, NMFC and AIV Holdings had capital loss carryforwards of approximately zero and $15,772, respectively.

        At December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis differ from the amounts reflected per NMFC's and AIV Holdings' respective Statements of Assets and Liabilities by temporary book/tax differences primarily arising from differences between the tax and book basis of NMFC's and AIV Holdings' respective investment in the Operating Company and undistributed income.

Note 15. Recent Accounting Standards Updates

        In June 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-08, Financial ServicesInvestment Companies (Topic 946)—Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2013-08"), which contains new guidance on assessing whether an entity is an investment company, requiring non-controlling ownership interests in investment companies to be measured at fair value and requiring certain additional disclosures. ASU 2013-08 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companies' financial statements.

Note 16. Subsequent Events

        On January 27, 2014, NMFC announced that the U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") issued a "green light" letter inviting NMFC to continue its application process to obtain a license to form and operate a Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") subsidiary. If approved, a SBIC license would provide NMFC with an incremental source of attractive long-term capital.

        Receipt of a green light letter from the SBA does not assure an applicant that the SBA will ultimately issue an SBIC license, and NMFC has received no assurance or indication from the SBA
