The reported price for the share purchases made on March 23, 2020 is based on prices ranging from a low of $8.98 per share to a high of $9.95 per share. The reporting person undertakes to provide to Solar Capital Ltd.

4. (Continued from Footnote (3)) Mr. Spohler disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the Issuer's securities directly held by the SCP Plan, Solar Capital I or Solar Capital II, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Spohler is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or any other purpose.
