Item 5.07.          Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

New Mountain Finance Corporation (“NMFC” or the “Company”) held a Special Meeting of Stockholders on June 8, 2018 (the “Special Meeting”) and submitted one (1) matter to the vote of stockholders.

Stockholders of NMFC approved of NMFC becoming subject to a minimum asset coverage ratio of at least 150%, permitting the Company to double its amount of debt incurrence based on the following votes:

NMFC previously announced that its board of directors (the “Board”), including a “required majority” (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of the Board, approved the application to NMFC of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, as amended by the Small Business Credit Availability Act, which would have become effective April 12, 2019.  However, as a result of the stockholder approval at the Special Meeting, effective June 9, 2018, the asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act applicable to NMFC was decreased from 200% to 150%, permitting NMFC to incur additional leverage.
