* Together with GE Global Sponsor Finance LLC and General Electric Capital Corporation (together, GE), the Company has co-invested through the Senior Secured Loan Fund LLC (d/b/a the Senior Secured Loan Program or the SSLP). The SSLP has been capitalized as transactions are completed and all portfolio decisions and generally all other decisions in respect of the SSLP must be approved by an investment committee of the SSLP consisting of representatives of the Company and GE (with approval from a representative of each required); therefore, although the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities of the SSLP, the Company does not believe that it has control over the SSLP (for purposes of the Investment Company Act or otherwise) because, among other things, these voting securities do not afford the Company the right to elect directors of the SSLP or any other special rights (see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements).
(9) Non-U.S. company or principal place of business outside the U.S. and as a result is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act. Under the Investment Company Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Companys total assets.
(10) Exception from the definition of investment company under Section 3(c) of the Investment Company Act and as a result is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act. Under the Investment Company Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Companys total assets.
(11) In the first quarter of 2011, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Staff) informally communicated to certain business development companies (BDCs) the Staffs belief that certain entities, which would be classified as an investment company under the Investment Company Act but for the exception from the definition of investment company set forth in Rule 3a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, could not be treated as eligible portfolio companies (as defined in Section 2(a)(46) under Investment Company Act) (i.e. not eligible to included in a BDCs 70% qualifying assets basket). Subsequently, in August 2011 the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a concept release (the Concept Release) which stated that [a]s a general matter, the Commission presently does not believe that Rule 3a-7 issuers are the type of small, developing and financially troubled businesses in which the U.S. Congress intended BDCs primarily to invest and requested comment on whether or not a 3a-7 issuer should be considered an eligible portfolio company. The Company provided a comment letter in respect of the Concept Release and continues to believe that the language of Section 2(a)(46) of the Investment Company Act permits a BDC to treat as eligible portfolio companies entities that rely on the 3a-7
exception. However, given the current uncertainty in this area (including the language in the Concept Release) and subsequent discussions with the Staff, the Company has, solely for purposes of calculating the composition of its portfolio pursuant to Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act, identified such entities, which include the SSLP, as non-qualifying assets should the Staff ultimately disagree with the Companys position. Pursuant to Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act (using the Staffs methodology described above solely for this purpose), 25% of the Companys total assets are represented by investments at fair value and other assets that are considered non-qualifying assets as of March 31, 2016.
(12) Variable rate loans to the Companys portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR or an alternate base rate (commonly based on the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate), at the borrowers option, which reset annually (A), semi-annually (S), quarterly (Q), bi-monthly (B), monthly (M) or daily (D). For each such loan, the Company has provided the interest rate in effect on the date presented.

Together with GE, the Company has co-invested through the SSLP. The SSLP has been capitalized as transactions are completed and all portfolio decisions and generally all other decisions in respect of the SSLP must be approved by an investment committee of the SSLP consisting of representatives of the Company and GE (with approval from a representative of each required); therefore, although the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities of the SSLP, the Company does not believe that it has control over the SSLP (for purposes of the Investment Company Act or otherwise) because, among other things, these voting securities do not afford the Company the right to elect directors of the SSLP or any other special rights (see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements). |

Non-U.S. company or principal place of business outside the U.S. and as a result is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act. Under the Investment Company Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Companys total assets. |
|
|
(10) |
Exception from the definition of investment company under Section 3(c) of the Investment Company Act and as a result is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act. Under the Investment Company Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Companys total assets. |
|

In the first quarter of 2011, the Staff informally communicated to certain BDCs the Staffs belief that certain entities, which would be classified as an investment company under the Investment Company Act but for the exception from the definition of investment company set forth in Rule 3a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, could not be treated as eligible portfolio companies (as defined in Section 2(a)(46) under Investment Company Act) (i.e. not eligible to included in a BDCs 70% qualifying assets basket). Subsequently, in August 2011 the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a concept release (the Concept Release) which stated that [a]s a general matter, the Commission presently does not believe that Rule 3a-7 issuers are the type of small, developing and financially troubled businesses in which the U.S. Congress intended BDCs primarily to invest and requested comment on whether or not a 3a-7 issuer should be considered an eligible portfolio company. The Company provided a comment letter in respect of the Concept Release and continues to believe that the language of Section 2(a)(46) of the Investment Company Act permits a BDC to treat as eligible portfolio companies entities that rely on the 3a-7 exception. However, given the current uncertainty in this area (including the language in the Concept Release) and subsequent discussions with the Staff, the Company has, solely for purposes of calculating the composition of its portfolio pursuant to Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act, identified such entities, which include the SSLP, as non-qualifying assets should the Staff ultimately disagree with the Companys position. Pursuant to Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act (using the Staffs methodology described above solely for this purpose), 25% of the Companys total assets are represented by investments at fair value and other assets that are considered non-qualifying assets as of December 31, 2015. |

ARES CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of March 31, 2016
(unaudited)
(in thousands, except per share data, percentages and as otherwise indicated; for example, with the words million,billion or otherwise)
1. ORGANIZATION
Ares Capital Corporation (the Company or ARCC) is a specialty finance company that is a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company incorporated in Maryland. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Investment Company Act). The Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (RIC) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) and operates in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs.
The Companys investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. The Company invests primarily in first lien senior secured loans (including unitranche loans, which are loans that combine both senior and mezzanine debt, generally in a first lien position), second lien senior secured loans and mezzanine debt, which in some cases includes an equity component. To a lesser extent, the Company also makes equity investments.
The Company is externally managed by Ares Capital Management LLC (Ares Capital Management or the Companys investment adviser), a subsidiary of Ares Management, L.P. (Ares Management or Ares), a publicly traded, leading global alternative asset manager, pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement. Ares Operations LLC (Ares Operations or the Companys administrator), a subsidiary of Ares Management, provides certain administrative and other services necessary for the Company to operate.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company is an investment company following accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 946. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the operations and financial condition as of and for the periods presented. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 or 10 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 for the interim period presented, have been included. The current periods results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include funds from time to time deposited with financial institutions and short-term, liquid investments in a money market account. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in money market accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.
Investments
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Unrealized gains or losses primarily reflect the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, the Company looks at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available (i.e., substantially all of the Companys investments) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Companys board of directors, based on, among other things, the input of the Companys investment adviser, audit committee and independent third-party valuation firms that have been engaged at the direction of the Companys board of directors to assist in the valuation of each portfolio investment without a readily available market quotation at least once during a trailing 12-month period (with certain de minimis exceptions) and under a valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. The valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, and a minimum of 55% of the Companys portfolio at fair value is subject to review by an independent valuation firm each quarter. In addition, the Companys independent registered public accounting firm obtains an understanding of, and performs select procedures relating to, the Companys investment valuation process within the context of performing the integrated audit.
As part of the valuation process, the Company may take into account the following types of factors, if relevant, in determining the fair value of the Companys investments: the enterprise value of a portfolio company (the entire value of the portfolio company to a market participant, including the sum of the values of debt and equity securities used to capitalize the enterprise at a point in time), the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, a comparison of the portfolio companys securities to any similar publicly traded securities, changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets, which may affect the price at which similar investments would trade in their principal markets and other relevant factors. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Company considers the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate its valuation.
Because there is not a readily available market value for most of the investments in its portfolio, the Company values substantially all of its portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by its board of directors, as described herein. 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 Companys investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of the Companys investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that the Company may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If the Company was required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company could realize significantly less than the value at which the Company has recorded it.
In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the valuations currently assigned.
The Companys board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
· The Companys quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment in conjunction with the Companys portfolio management team.
· Preliminary valuations are reviewed and discussed with the Companys investment advisers management and investment professionals, and then valuation recommendations are presented to the Companys board of directors.
· The audit committee of the Companys board of directors reviews these valuations, as well as the input of third parties, including independent third-party valuation firms, who review a minimum of 55% of the Companys portfolio at fair value.
· The Companys board of directors discusses valuations and ultimately determines the fair value of each investment in the Companys portfolio without a readily available market quotation in good faith based on, among other things, the input of the Companys investment adviser, audit committee and, where applicable, independent third-party valuation firms.
See Note 8 for more information on the Companys valuation process.
Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon managements judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in managements judgment, are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.
Payment-in-Kind Interest
The Company has loans in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (PIK) provisions. The PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in each loan agreement, is added to the principal balance of the loan and recorded as interest income. To maintain the Companys status as a RIC, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders in the form of dividends, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash.
Capital Structuring Service Fees and Other Income
The Companys investment adviser seeks to provide assistance to its portfolio companies and in return the Company may receive fees for capital structuring services. These fees are generally only available to the Company as a result of the Companys underlying investments, are normally paid at the closing of the investments, are generally non-recurring and are recognized as revenue when earned upon closing of the investment. The services that the Companys investment adviser provides vary by investment, but generally include reviewing existing credit facilities, arranging bank financing, arranging
equity financing, structuring financing from multiple lenders, structuring financing from multiple equity investors, restructuring existing loans, raising equity and debt capital, and providing general financial advice, which concludes upon closing of the investment. Any services of the above nature subsequent to the closing would generally generate a separate fee payable to the Company. In certain instances where the Company is invited to participate as a co-lender in a transaction and does not provide significant services in connection with the investment, a portion of loan fees paid to the Company in such situations will be deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the loan.
Other income includes fees for management and consulting services, loan guarantees, commitments, amendments and other services rendered by the Company to portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Companys books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1) Fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilitiesat the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.
(2) Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expensesat the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions, income or expenses.
Results of operations based on changes in foreign exchange rates are separately disclosed in the statement of operations, if any. Foreign security and currency translations may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.
Derivative Instruments
The Company does not utilize hedge accounting and as such values its derivatives at fair value with the unrealized gains or losses recorded in net unrealized gains (losses) from foreign currency and other transactions in the Companys consolidated statement of operations.
Equity Offering Expenses
The Companys offering costs, excluding underwriters fees, are charged against the proceeds from equity offerings when received.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs are amortized over the life of the related debt instrument using the straight line method or the effective yield method, depending on the type of debt instrument.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code and operates in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must (among other requirements) meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. The Company (among other requirements) has made and intends to continue to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company from U.S. federal corporate-level income taxes.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions from such current year taxable income into the next tax year and pay a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year taxable income will be in excess of estimated dividend distributions for the current year, the Company accrues excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as such taxable income is earned.
Certain of the Companys consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes.
Dividends to Common Stockholders
Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by the Companys board of directors each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by management. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of any distributions the Company declares in cash on behalf of its stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Companys board of directors authorizes, and the Company declares, a cash dividend, then the Companys stockholders who have not opted out of the Companys dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Companys common stock, rather than receiving the cash dividend. The Company intends to use primarily newly issued shares to implement the dividend reinvestment plan (so long as the Company is trading at a premium to net asset value). If the Companys shares are trading at a discount to net asset value and the Company is otherwise permitted under applicable law to purchase such shares, the Company may purchase shares in the open market in connection with the Companys obligations under the dividend reinvestment plan. However, the Company reserves the right to issue new shares of the Companys common stock in connection with the Companys obligations under the dividend reinvestment plan even if the Companys shares are trading below net asset value.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of actual and contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income or loss and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the valuation of investments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The new guidance modifies the consolidation analysis for limited partnerships and similar type entities as well as variable interests in a variable interest entity, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships. Additionally, it provides a scope exception to the consolidation guidance for certain entities. The amendments in ASU No. 2015-02 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-02 as of March 31, 2016 and there was no material impact of adopting this ASU on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The new guidance modifies the requirements for reporting debt issuance costs. Under the amendments in ASU No. 2015-03, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will no longer be recorded as a separate asset, but will be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability,
consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by ASU No. 2015-03. In addition, in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30). The additional guidance reiterates that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs related to a line of credit arrangement as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line of credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings. ASU No. 2015-03 and ASU No. 2015-15 are required to be applied retrospectively for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-03 as of March 31, 2016. Prior to ASU No. 2015-03, deferred debt issuance costs related to term debt were reported on the balance sheet as other assets and amortized as interest expense. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 has been adjusted to apply the change in accounting principle retrospectively. There is no effect on the statement of operations as a result of the change in accounting principle. Debt issuance costs related to term debt of $24.5 million previously reported within other assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 have been reclassified as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. ASU No. 2015-03 had no impact on the presentation or amortization of the debt issuance costs related to the Companys revolving credit facilities.
In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). The new guidance removed the requirement that investments for which net asset value is determined based on practical expedient reliance be reported utilizing the fair value hierarchy. ASU No. 2015-07 is required to be applied retrospectively for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-07 as of March 31, 2016, and thereby removed any investments valued in this manner from the fair value disclosures. See Note 8 for more information regarding the impact on the fair value disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The guidance in this ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. Under the new guidance, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in ASU No. 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, which clarifies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 and has the same effective date as the original standard. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases previously classified as operating leases. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-02 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
3. AGREEMENTS
Investment Advisory and Management Agreement
The Company is party to an investment advisory and management agreement (the investment advisory and management agreement) with Ares Capital Management. Subject to the overall supervision of the Companys board of directors, Ares Capital Management provides investment advisory and management services to the Company. For providing these services, Ares Capital Management receives fees from the Company consisting of a base management fee, a fee based on the Companys net investment income (income based fee) and a fee based on the Companys net capital gains (capital gains incentive fee). The investment advisory and management agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days written notice to the other party.
The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.5% based on the average value of the Companys total assets (other than cash or cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed funds) at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears.
The income based fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Companys net investment income excluding income based fees and capital gains incentive fees (pre-incentive fee net investment income) for the quarter. Pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies but excluding fees for providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, any expenses payable under the administration agreement, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the income based fee and capital gains incentive fee accrued under GAAP). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature such as market discount, debt instruments with PIK interest, preferred stock with PIK dividends and zero coupon securities, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. The Companys investment adviser is not under any obligation to reimburse the Company for any part of the income based fees it received that was based on accrued interest that the Company never actually received.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses, unrealized capital appreciation, unrealized capital depreciation or income tax expense related to realized gains and losses. Because of the structure of the income based fee, it is possible that the Company may pay such fees in a quarter where the Company incurs a loss. For example, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate (as defined below) for a quarter, the Company will pay the applicable income based fee even if the Company has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and/or unrealized capital losses.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Companys net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any income based fees and capital gains incentive fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a fixed hurdle rate of 1.75% per quarter. If market credit spreads rise, the Company may be able to invest its funds in debt instruments that provide for a higher return, which may increase the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income and make it easier for the Companys investment adviser to surpass the fixed hurdle rate and receive an income based fee based on such net investment income. To the extent the Company has retained pre-incentive fee net investment income that has been used to calculate the income based fee, it is also included in the amount of the Companys total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed funds) used to calculate the 1.5% base management fee.
The Company pays its investment adviser an income based fee with respect to the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:
· no income based fee in any calendar quarter in which the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate;
· 100% of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter. The Company refers to this portion of its pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.1875%) as the catch-up provision. The catch-up is meant to provide the Companys investment adviser with 20% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeded 2.1875% in any calendar quarter; and
· 20% of the amount of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter.
These calculations are adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter.
The capital gains incentive fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or, upon termination of the investment advisory and management agreement, as of the termination date) and is calculated at the end of each applicable year by subtracting (a) the sum of the Companys cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate unrealized capital depreciation from (b) the Companys cumulative aggregate realized capital gains, in each case calculated from October 8, 2004 (the date the Company completed its initial public offering). Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investments and foreign currencies, gains and losses on extinguishment of debt and other assets, as well as any income tax expense related to realized gains and losses. If such amount is positive at the end of such year, then the capital gains incentive fee for such year is equal to 20% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of capital gains incentive fees paid in all prior years. If such amount is negative, then there is no capital gains incentive fee for such year.
The cumulative aggregate realized capital gains are calculated as the sum of the differences, if positive, between (a) the net sales price of each investment in the Companys portfolio when sold and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
The cumulative aggregate realized capital losses are calculated as the sum of the amounts by which (a) the net sales price of each investment in the Companys portfolio when sold is less than (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
The aggregate unrealized capital depreciation is calculated as the sum of the differences, if negative, between (a) the valuation of each investment in the Companys portfolio as of the applicable capital gains incentive fee calculation date and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a result of an amendment to the capital gains incentive fee under the investment advisory and management agreement that was adopted on June 6, 2011, if the Company is required by GAAP to record an investment at its fair value as of the time of acquisition instead of at the actual amount paid for such investment by the Company (including, for example, as a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting), then solely for the purposes of calculating the capital gains incentive fee , the accreted or amortized cost basis of an investment shall be an amount (the Contractual Cost Basis) equal to (1) (x) the actual amount paid by the Company for such investment plus (y) any amounts recorded in the Companys financial statements as required by GAAP that are attributable to the accretion of such investment plus (z) any other adjustments made to the cost basis included in the Companys financial statements, including PIK interest or additional amounts funded (net of repayments) minus (2) any amounts recorded in the Companys financial statements as required by GAAP that are attributable to the amortization of such investment, whether such calculated Contractual Cost Basis is higher or lower than the fair value of such investment (as determined in accordance with GAAP) at the time of acquisition.
The Company defers cash payment of any income based fees and capital gains incentive fees otherwise earned by the Companys investment adviser if during the most recent four full calendar quarter period ending on or prior to the date such payment is to be made the sum of (a) the aggregate distributions to the Companys stockholders and (b) the change in net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any income based fees and capital gains incentive fees payable during the period) is less than 7.0% of the Companys net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness) at the beginning of such period. Any deferred income based fees and capital gains incentive fees are carried over for payment in subsequent calculation periods to the extent such payment is payable under the investment advisory and management agreement.
There was no capital gains incentive fee earned by the Companys investment adviser as calculated under the investment advisory and management agreement (as described above) for the three months ended March 31, 2016. However, in accordance with GAAP, the Company had cumulatively accrued a capital gains incentive fee of $46,027 as of March 31, 2016, of which $46,027 is not currently due under the investment advisory and management agreement. GAAP requires that the capital gains incentive fee accrual consider the cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation in the calculation, as a
capital gains incentive fee would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under the investment advisory and management agreement. This GAAP accrual is calculated using the aggregate cumulative realized capital gains and losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation included in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee plus the aggregate cumulative unrealized capital appreciation. If such amount is positive at the end of a period, then GAAP requires the Company to record a capital gains incentive fee equal to 20% of such cumulative amount, less the aggregate amount of actual capital gains incentive fees paid or capital gains incentive fees accrued under GAAP in all prior periods. As of March 31, 2016, the Company has paid capital gains incentive fees since inception totaling $57,404. The resulting accrual for any capital gains incentive fee under GAAP in a given period may result in an additional expense if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period or a reversal of previously recorded expense if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period. If such cumulative amount is negative, then there is no accrual. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, base management fees were $34,759, income based fees were $29,122 and the capital gains incentive fees calculated in accordance with GAAP were $3,762. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, base management fees were $33,916, income based fees were $29,365 and the reduction in capital gains incentive fees calculated in accordance with GAAP was $4,220.
Administration Agreement
The Company is party to an administration agreement, referred to herein as the administration agreement, with its administrator, Ares Operations. Pursuant to the administration agreement, Ares Operations furnishes the Company with office equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at the Companys office facilities. Under the administration agreement, Ares Operations also performs, or oversees the performance of, the Companys required administrative services, which include, among other things, providing assistance in accounting, legal, compliance, operations, technology and investor relations, being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports to its stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, Ares Operations assists the Company in determining and publishing its net asset value, assists the Company in providing managerial assistance to its portfolio companies, oversees the preparation and filing of the Companys tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to its stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of its expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. Payments under the administration agreement are equal to an amount based upon its allocable portion of Ares Operations overhead and other expenses (including travel expenses) incurred by Ares Operations in performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including the Companys allocable portion of the compensation of certain of its officers (including the Companys chief compliance officer, chief financial officer, chief accounting officer, general counsel, treasurer and assistant treasurer) and their respective staffs. The administration agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days written notice to the other party.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company incurred $3,423 and $3,456, respectively, in administrative fees. As of March 31, 2016, $3,423 of these fees were unpaid and included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

(1) Includes the Companys investment in the SSLP, which represented 20.8% and 20.8% of the total investment portfolio at fair value as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
As of March 31, 2016, 1.3% of total investments at amortized cost (or 0.6% of total investments at fair value) were on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2015, 2.6% of total investments at amortized cost (or 1.7% of total investments at fair value) were on non-accrual status.
Senior Direct Lending Program
In December 2015, the Company established a joint venture with Varagon Capital Partners (Varagon) to make certain first lien senior secured loans, including certain stretch senior and unitranche loans, to U.S. middle-market companies. Varagon was formed in 2013 as a lending platform by American International Group, Inc. (NYSE:AIG) and other partners. The joint venture is called the Senior Direct Lending Program (the SDLP). It is expected that the SDLP will commit and hold individual loans of up to $300 million. The Company may co-invest directly with the SDLP to accommodate larger transactions. The Company will provide capital to the SDLP in the form of subordinated certificates (the SDLP Certificates), and Varagon will provide capital to the SDLP in the form of senior notes, intermediate funding notes and SDLP Certificates. It is expected that the Company and Varagon will own 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of any outstanding SDLP Certificates.
As of March 31, 2016, the Company and Varagon had agreed to make capital available to the SDLP of $2.9 billion in the aggregate, of which no amounts were funded. The SDLP will be capitalized as transactions are completed. All portfolio decisions and generally all other decisions in respect of the SDLP must be approved by an investment committee of the SDLP consisting of representatives of the Company and Varagon (with approval from a representative of each required). As of March 31, 2016, the Company had agreed to make available to the SDLP (subject to the approval of the investment committee of the SDLP as described above) approximately $591 million, of which no amounts were committed or funded. The SDLP Certificates will pay a coupon of LIBOR plus a stated spread and also entitle the holders thereof to receive a portion of the excess cash flow from the loan portfolio, which may result in a return to the holders of the SDLP Certificates that is greater than the stated coupon. The SDLP Certificates are junior in right of payment to the senior notes and intermediate funding notes.
See Note 6 for more information regarding a forward sale agreement between the Company and the SDLP.
Senior Secured Loan Program
The Company has co-invested in first lien senior secured loans of middle market companies with GE through the SSLP. The SSLP has been capitalized as transactions are completed. All portfolio decisions and generally all other decisions in respect of the SSLP must be approved by an investment committee of the SSLP consisting of representatives of the Company and GE (with approval from a representative of each required). The Company has provided capital to the SSLP in the form of subordinated certificates (the SSLP Certificates).
In August 2015, GE completed the sale of its U.S. Sponsor Finance business, through which GE had participated with the Company in the SSLP, to Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB). This sale excluded GEs interest in the SSLP, and GE and the Company continue to operate the SSLP. The Company and GE no longer have an obligation to present senior secured lending investment opportunities to the SSLP and since June 30, 2015, the SSLP has not made any investments related to new portfolio companies; however, the Company and GE may provide capital to support the SSLPs funding of existing commitments (see below) and other amounts to its portfolio companies. On August 24, 2015, the Company was advised that GECC, as the holder of the senior notes of the SSLP (the Senior Notes), directed State Street Bank and Trust Company, as trustee of the Senior Notes and the SSLP Certificates, pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the Senior Notes and the SSLP Certificates, to apply all principal proceeds received by the SSLP from its investments to the repayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Notes until paid in full (prior to the distribution of any such principal proceeds to the holders of the SSLP Certificates, which includes the Company). GECC had previously elected to waive its right to receive priority repayments on the Senior Notes from principal proceeds in most circumstances. Prior to closing the sale to CPPIB, GE had announced its intention to provide the Company and CPPIB the opportunity to work together on the SSLP on a go-forward basis. GECC has also stated that if a mutual agreement between the Company and CPPIB to partner on the SSLP is not reached, it intends to retain its interest in the SSLP and the SSLP would be wound down in an orderly manner. The Company has been in dialogue with GE and CPPIB to determine if there is an opportunity to work together; however, to date there has been no agreement in respect of the SSLP as a result of these discussions and there can be no assurance that such discussions will continue or any such agreement will be reached. In addition to discussions with CPPIB and GECC, the Company is also exploring other options with respect to the SSLPs portfolio, although there can be no assurance that the Company will pursue any of them.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, GE and the Company had outstanding amounts funded of approximately $7.6 billion and $8.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, respectively, to the SSLP. As discussed above, the Company anticipates that no new investments will be made by the SSLP and that the Company and GE will only provide additional capital to support the SSLPs funding of existing commitments and other amounts to its portfolio companies. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the SSLP had commitments to fund delayed draw loans to certain of its portfolio companies of $145.4 million and $198.6 million, respectively, which had been approved by the investment committee of the SSLP as described above.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding amounts funded of approximately $2.0 billion and $2.0 billion in aggregate principal amount, respectively, to the SSLP. Additionally, as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had commitments to co-invest in the SSLP for its portion of the SSLPs commitments to fund delayed draw loans to portfolio companies of up to $23.6 million and $32.6 million, respectively. As discussed above, it is not anticipated that the Company will make new investments through the SSLP.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the SSLP had total assets of $7.6 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, GEs investment in the SSLP consisted of the Senior Notes of $5.3 billion and $6.2 billion, respectively, and SSLP Certificates of $286.3 million and $285.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company and GE owned 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of the outstanding SSLP Certificates.
The SSLP Certificates pay a weighted average coupon of LIBOR plus approximately 8.0% and also entitle the holders thereof to receive a portion of the excess cash flow from the loan portfolio, which may result in a return to the holders of the SSLP Certificates that is greater than the stated coupon. The SSLP Certificates are junior in right of payment to the Senior Notes held by GE. The Company expects that for so long as principal proceeds from SSLP repayments are directed entirely to repay the Senior Notes as discussed above, the yield on the SSLP Certificates will decline.
The SSLPs portfolio consisted of first lien senior secured loans to 38 and 41 different borrowers as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the portfolio was comprised of all first lien senior secured loans to U.S. middle-market companies. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, none of these loans were on non-accrual status. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the largest loan to a single borrower in the SSLPs portfolio in aggregate principal amount was $342.5 million and $345.9 million, respectively, and the five largest loans to borrowers in the SSLP totaled $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively. The portfolio companies in the SSLP are in industries similar to the companies in the Companys portfolio.
The amortized cost and fair value of the SSLP Certificates held by the Company were $1.9 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, as of March 31, 2016, and $1.9 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2015. The Companys yield on its investment in the SSLP at fair value was 12.1% and 12.3% as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company earned interest income of $58.8 million and $68.3 million, respectively, from its investment in the SSLP Certificates. The Company is also entitled to certain fees in connection with the SSLP. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, in connection with the SSLP, the Company earned capital structuring service, sourcing and other fees totaling $5.8 million and $14.7 million, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility
The Company is party to a senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended and restated, the Revolving Credit Facility), which as of March 31, 2016 allowed the Company to borrow up to $1,290,000 at any one time outstanding. As of March 31, 2016, the end of the revolving period and the stated maturity date for the Revolving Credit Facility were May 4, 2019 and May 4, 2020, respectively. The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for a feature that allowed the Company as of March 31, 2016, under certain circumstances, to increase in the size of the Revolving Credit Facility to a maximum of $1,935,000. The Revolving Credit Facility generally requires payments of interest at the end of each LIBOR interest period, but no less frequently than quarterly, on LIBOR based loans, and monthly payments of interest on other loans. From the end of the revolving period to the stated maturity date, the Company is required to repay outstanding principal amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility on a monthly basis in an amount equal to 1/12th of the outstanding principal amount at the end of the revolving period. See Note 15 for a subsequent event relating to the Revolving Credit Facility.
Under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar revolving credit facilities, including, without limitation, covenants related to: (a) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (b) limitations on certain investments, (c) limitations on certain restricted payments, (d) maintaining a certain minimum stockholders equity, (e) maintaining a ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions) of not less than 2.0:1.0, (f) limitations on pledging certain unencumbered assets, and (g) limitations on the creation or existence of agreements that prohibit liens on certain properties of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the documents governing the Revolving Credit Facility. Amounts available to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility (and the incurrence of certain other permitted debt) are also subject to compliance with a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets in the Companys portfolio that are pledged as collateral. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were $1,170,000 and $515,000 outstanding, respectively, under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2016, the Revolving Credit Facility also provides for a sub-limit for the issuance of letters of credit for up to an aggregate amount of $150,000. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $24,273 and $24,111, respectively, in letters of credit issued through the Revolving Credit Facility. The amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility is reduced by any letters of credit issued. As of March 31, 2016, there was $95,727 available for borrowing (net of letters of credit issued) under the Revolving Credit Facility.
Since March 26, 2015, the interest rate charged on the Revolving Credit Facility is based on an applicable spread of either 1.75% or 2.00% over LIBOR or 0.75% or 1.00% over an alternate base rate (as defined in the agreements governing the Revolving Credit Facility), in each case, determined monthly based on the total amount of the borrowing base relative to the total commitments of the Revolving Credit Facility and other debt, if any, secured by the same collateral as the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2016, the interest rate in effect was LIBOR plus 1.75%. From May 2, 2013 to March 25, 2015, the interest rate charged on the Revolving Credit Facility was based on an applicable spread of 2.00% over LIBOR or an applicable spread of 1.00% over an alternate base rate. As of March 31, 2016, the one, two, three and six month LIBOR was 0.44%, 0.52%, 0.63% and 0.90%, respectively. As of December 31, 2015, the one, two, three and six month LIBOR was 0.43%, 0.51%, 0.61% and 0.85%, respectively. In addition to the stated interest expense on the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on any unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. Since March 26, 2015, the Company is also required to pay a letter of credit fee of either 2.00% or 2.25% per annum on letters of credit issued, determined monthly based on the total amount of the borrowing base relative to the total commitments of the Revolving Credit Facility and other debt, if any, secured by the same collateral as the Revolving Credit Facility. Prior to and including March 25, 2015, the Company paid a letter of credit fee of 2.25% per annum on letters of credit issued.
The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by certain assets in the Companys portfolio and excludes investments held by Ares Capital CP under the Revolving Funding Facility, those held by ACJB under the SMBC Funding Facility and those held by AVF LP under the SBA Debentures, each as described below, and certain other investments.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the components of interest and credit facility fees expense, cash paid for interest expense, average stated interest rates (i.e., rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding balances for the Revolving Credit Facility were as follows:

The Revolving Funding Facility also includes a feature that allows, under certain circumstances, for an increase in the Revolving Funding Facility to a maximum of $865,000.
Amounts available to borrow under the Revolving Funding Facility are subject to a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets held by Ares Capital CP. Ares Capital CP is also subject to limitations with respect to the loans securing the Revolving Funding Facility, including restrictions on sector concentrations, loan size, payment frequency and status, collateral interests, loans with fixed rates and loans with certain investment ratings, as well as restrictions on portfolio company leverage, which may also affect the borrowing base and therefore amounts available to borrow. The Company and Ares Capital CP are also required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the agreements governing the Revolving Funding Facility. As of March 31, 2016, the Company and Ares Capital CP were in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Revolving Funding Facility.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was $118,000 and $250,000 outstanding, respectively, under the Revolving Funding Facility. Since January 25, 2013, the interest rate charged on the Revolving Funding Facility is based on an applicable spread ranging from 2.25% to 2.50% over LIBOR or ranging from 1.25% to 1.50% over a base rate (as defined in the agreements governing the Revolving Funding Facility) in each case, determined monthly based on the composition of the borrowing base relative to outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Funding Facility. As of March 31, 2016, the interest rate in effect was LIBOR plus 2.25%. Ares Capital CP is required to pay a commitment fee between 0.50% and 1.50% per annum depending on the size of the unused portion of the Revolving Funding Facility.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the components of interest and credit facility fees expense, cash paid for interest expense, average stated interest rates (i.e., rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding balances for the Revolving Funding Facility were as follows:

SBA Debentures
In April 2015, the Companys wholly owned subsidiary, Ares Venture Finance, L.P. (AVF LP), received a license from the Small Business Administration (SBA) to operate as a Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) under the provisions of Section 301(c) of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended. The SBA places certain limitations on the financing of investments by SBICs in portfolio companies, including regulating the types of financings, restricting investments to only include small businesses with certain characteristics or in certain industries, and requiring capitalization thresholds that may limit distributions to the Company.
The license from the SBA allows AVF LP to obtain leverage by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures (the SBA Debentures), subject to issuance of a capital commitment by the SBA and other customary procedures. Leverage through the SBA Debentures is subject to required capitalization thresholds. Current SBA regulations limit the amount that any SBIC may borrow to $150,000 and as of March 31, 2016, the amount of the SBA Debentures committed to AVF LP by the SBA was $75,000. The SBA Debentures are non-recourse to the Company, have interest payable semi-annually, have a 10-year maturity and may be prepaid at any time without penalty. As of March 31, 2016, AVF LP had $25,000 of the SBA Debentures issued and outstanding, which mature between September 2025 and March 2026. AVF LP is subject to an annual periodic examination by an SBA examiner to determine AVF LPs compliance with the relevant SBA regulations and an annual financial audit of its financial statements that are prepared on a basis of accounting other than GAAP (such as ASC 820) by an independent auditor. As of March 31, 2016, AVF LP was in compliance in all material respects with SBA regulatory requirements.
The interest rate for the SBA Debentures is fixed at the time the SBA Debentures and other applicable SBA-guaranteed debentures can be pooled and sold to the public and is based on a spread over U.S. treasury notes with 10-year maturities. The pooling of newly issued SBA-guaranteed debentures occurs twice per year. The spread includes an annual charge as determined by the SBA (the Annual Charge) as well as a market-driven component. Prior to the 10-year fixed interest rate being determined, the interim interest rate charged for the SBA-guarantee debentures is based on LIBOR plus an applicable spread of 0.30% and the Annual Charge. As of March 31, 2016, the weighted average interest rate in effect for the SBA Debentures was 3.48%.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the components of interest expense, cash paid for interest expense, average stated interest rate and average outstanding balances for the SBA Debentures were as follows:

(1) Represents conversion price and conversion rate, as applicable, as of March 31, 2016, taking into account certain de minimis adjustments that will be made on the conversion date.
As of March 31, 2016, the principal amounts of each series of the Convertible Unsecured Notes exceeded the value of the underlying shares multiplied by the per share closing price of the Companys common stock.
The Convertible Unsecured Notes Indentures contain certain covenants, including covenants requiring the Company to comply with Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act and to provide financial information to the holders of the Convertible Unsecured Notes under certain circumstances. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the Convertible Unsecured Notes Indentures. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Convertible Unsecured Notes Indentures.
The Convertible Unsecured Notes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-20. To the extent the June 2016 Convertible Unsecured Notes are converted, the Company has selected to settle with a combination of cash and shares of its common stock. Upon conversion of any of the other Convertible Unsecured Notes, the Company intends to pay the outstanding principal amount in cash and to the extent that the conversion value exceeds the principal amount, the Company has the option to pay in cash or shares of the Companys common stock (or a combination of cash and shares) in respect of the excess amount, subject to the requirements of the Convertible Unsecured Notes Indentures. The Company has determined that the embedded conversion options in the Convertible Unsecured Notes are not required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under GAAP. In accounting for the Convertible Unsecured Notes, the Company estimated at the time of issuance separate debt and equity components for each of the Convertible Unsecured Notes. An original issue discount equal to the equity components of the Convertible Unsecured Notes was recorded in capital in excess of par value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, the issuance costs associated with the Convertible Unsecured Notes were allocated to the debt and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the proceeds and accounted for as debt issuance costs and equity issuance costs, respectively.
The debt and equity component percentages, the issuance costs and the equity component amounts for each of the Convertible Unsecured Notes are listed below.

Included within the total revolving and delayed draw loan commitments as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were delayed draw loan commitments totaling $137,468 and $148,609, respectively. The Companys commitment to fund delayed draw loans is triggered upon the satisfaction of certain pre-negotiated terms and conditions. Generally, the most significant and uncertain term requires the borrower to satisfy a specific use of proceeds covenant. The use of proceeds covenant typically requires the borrower to use the additional loans for the specific purpose of a permitted acquisition or permitted investment, for example. In addition to the use of proceeds covenant, the borrower is generally required to satisfy additional negotiated covenants (including specified leverage levels).
Also included within the total revolving and delayed draw loan commitments as of March 31, 2016 were commitments to issue up to $45,212 in letters of credit through a financial intermediary on behalf of certain portfolio companies. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $13,753 in letters of credit issued and outstanding under these commitments on behalf of portfolio companies. For all these letters of credit issued and outstanding, the Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. None of these letters of credit issued and outstanding are recorded as a liability on the Companys balance sheet as such letters of credit are considered in the valuation of the investments in the portfolio company. Of these letters of credit, $12,731 expire in 2016 and $1,022 expire in 2017.
The Company also has commitments to co-invest in the SSLP for the Companys portion of the SSLPs commitments to fund delayed draw loans to certain portfolio companies of the SSLP. See Note 4 for more information.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was party to subscription agreements to fund equity investments in private equity investment partnerships as follows:

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may sell certain of its investments to third party purchasers. In particular, in connection with the sale of certain controlled portfolio company equity investments (as well as certain other sales) the Company has, and may continue to do so in the future, agreed to indemnify such purchasers for future liabilities arising from the investments and the related sale transaction. Such indemnification provisions have given rise to liabilities in the past and may do so in the future.
8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company follows ASC 825-10, which provides companies the option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC 825-10 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities and to more easily understand the effect of the companys choice to use fair value on its earnings. ASC 825-10 also requires entities to display the fair value of the selected assets and liabilities on the face of the balance sheet. The Company has not elected the ASC 825-10 option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. With the exception of the line items entitled other assets and debt, which are reported at amortized cost, all assets and liabilities approximate fair value on the balance sheet. The carrying value of the lines titled interest receivable, receivable for open trades, payable for open trades, accounts payable and other liabilities, base management fees payable, income based fees payable, capital gains incentive fees payable and interest and facility fees payable approximate fair value due to their short maturity.
The Company also follows ASC 820-10, which expands the application of fair value accounting. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 requires the Company to assume that the portfolio investment is sold in its principal market to market participants or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market, which may be a hypothetical market. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820-10, the Company has considered its principal market as the market in which the Company exits its portfolio investments with the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820-10 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. In accordance with ASC 820-10, these inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
· Level 1Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
· Level 2Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
· Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, the Company continues to employ the net asset valuation policy approved by the Companys board of directors that is consistent with ASC 820-10 (see Note 2). Consistent with the Companys valuation policy, it evaluates the source of inputs, including any markets in which the Companys investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value. The Companys valuation policy considers the fact that because there is not a readily available market value for most of the investments in the Companys portfolio, the fair value of the investments must typically be determined using unobservable inputs.
The Companys portfolio investments (other than as described below in the following paragraph) are typically valued using two different valuation techniques. The first valuation technique is an analysis of the enterprise value (EV) of the portfolio company. Enterprise value means the entire value of the portfolio company to a market participant, including the sum of the values of debt and equity securities used to capitalize the enterprise at a point in time. The primary method for determining EV uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio companys EBITDA (generally defined as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization). EBITDA multiples are typically determined based upon review of market comparable transactions and publicly traded comparable companies, if any. The Company may also employ other valuation multiples to determine EV, such as revenues or, in the case of certain portfolio companies in the power generation industry, kilowatt capacity. The second method for determining EV uses a discounted cash flow analysis whereby future expected cash flows of the portfolio company are discounted to determine a present value using estimated discount rates (typically a weighted average cost of capital based on costs of debt and equity consistent with current market conditions). The EV analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments, the value of debt investments in portfolio companies where the Company has control or could gain control through an option or warrant security, and to determine if there is credit impairment for debt investments. If debt investments are credit impaired, an EV analysis may be used to value such debt investments; however, in addition to the methods outlined above, other methods such as a liquidation or wind-down analysis may be utilized to estimate enterprise value. The second valuation technique is a yield analysis, which is typically performed for non-credit impaired debt investments in portfolio companies where the Company does not own a controlling equity position. To determine fair value using a yield analysis, a current price is imputed for the investment based upon an assessment of the expected market yield for a similarly structured investment with a similar level of risk. In the yield analysis, the Company considers the current contractual interest rate, the maturity and other terms of the investment relative to risk of the company and the specific investment. A key determinant of risk, among other things, is the leverage through the investment relative to the enterprise value of the portfolio company. As debt investments held by the Company are substantially illiquid with no active transaction market, the Company depends on primary market data, including newly funded transactions, as well as secondary market data with respect to high yield debt instruments and syndicated loans, as inputs in determining the appropriate market yield, as applicable.
For other portfolio investments such as investments in collateralized loan obligations and the SSLP Certificates, discounted cash flow analysis is the primary technique utilized to determine fair value. Expected future cash flows associated with the investment are discounted to determine a present value using a discount rate that reflects estimated market return requirements.
The following tables summarize the significant unobservable inputs the Company used to value the majority of its investments categorized within Level 3 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The tables are not intended to be all-inclusive, but instead capture the significant unobservable inputs relevant to the Companys determination of fair values.

Changes in market yields, discount rates or EBITDA multiples, each in isolation, may change the fair value of certain of the Companys investments. Generally, an increase in market yields or discount rates or decrease in EBITDA multiples may result in a decrease in the fair value of certain of the Companys investments.
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 Companys investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of the Companys investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that the Company may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If the Company was required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, it could realize significantly less than the value at which the Company has recorded it.
In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the valuations currently assigned.

9. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
There were no sales of the Companys equity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. See Note 11 for information regarding shares of common stock issued in accordance with the Companys dividend reinvestment plan.
Stock Repurchase Program
In September 2015, the Companys board of directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of its outstanding common stock in the open market at certain thresholds below its net asset value per share, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company, in its discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. The program will be in effect until September 30, 2016, unless extended or until the approved dollar amount has been used to repurchase shares. The program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific
number of shares and it cannot assure stockholders that any shares will be repurchased under the program. The program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. See Note 15 for a subsequent event relating to the stock repurchase program.
In connection with this stock repurchase program, in March 2016, the Company entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan to repurchase shares of the Companys common stock in accordance with certain parameters set forth in such plan. The Company expects that the Rule 10b5-1 plan will be in effect until May 6, 2016, or until the approved dollar amount in the Rule 10b5-1 plan has been used to repurchase shares.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company repurchased a total of 393 shares of the Companys common stock in the open market for $5,477 under the stock repurchase program. The shares were repurchased at an average price of $13.92 per share, including commissions paid.

For the purpose of calculating diluted net increase in stockholders equity resulting from operations per share, the average closing price of the Companys common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was less than the conversion price for each of the Convertible Unsecured Notes outstanding as of March 31, 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the average closing price of the Companys common stock was less than the conversion price for each the Convertible Unsecured Notes outstanding as well as the February 2016 Convertible Notes. Therefore, for all periods presented in the financial statements, the underlying shares for the intrinsic value of the embedded options in the Convertible Unsecured Notes and the February 2016 Convertible Notes have no impact on the computation of diluted net increase in stockholders equity resulting from operations per share.

14. LITIGATION
The Company is party to certain lawsuits in the normal course of business. In addition, Allied Capital was involved in various legal proceedings that the Company assumed in connection with the Allied Acquisition. Furthermore, third parties may try to seek to impose liability on the Company in connection with the activities of its portfolio companies. While the outcome of any such legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that these legal proceedings will materially affect its business, financial condition or results of operations.
On May 20, 2013, the Company was named as one of several defendants in an action (the Action) filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (the Pennsylvania Court) by the bankruptcy trustee of DSI Renal Holdings LLC and two related companies. On March 17, 2014, the Action was transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the Delaware Court) pursuant to a motion filed by the defendants and granted by the Pennsylvania Court. On May 6, 2014, the Delaware Court referred the Action to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint in the Action alleges, among other things, that each of the named defendants participated in a purported fraudulent transfer involving the restructuring of a subsidiary of DSI Renal Holdings LLC. Among other things, the complaint seeks, jointly and severally from all defendants, (1) damages of approximately $425 million, of which the complaint states the Companys individual share is approximately $117 million, and (2) punitive damages. The Company is currently unable to assess with any certainty whether it may have any exposure in the Action. The Company believes the plaintiffs claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in the Action.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Companys management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements included herein. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in this Form 10-Q or would be required to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016, except as disclosed below.
In April 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to amend and restate the Revolving Credit Facility that, among other things, (a) extended the expiration of the revolving period for certain lenders electing to extend their commitments in an amount equal to $1.195 billion from May 4, 2019 to May 4, 2020, during which period the Company, subject to certain conditions, may make borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, (b) extended the stated maturity date for certain lenders electing to extend their commitments in an amount equal to $1.195 billion from May 4, 2020 to May 4, 2021, (c) permitted certain lenders electing not to extend their commitments in an amount equal to $70 million to remain subject to the existing revolving period and stated maturity in respect of their non-extending commitments, and (d) modified the debt and lien provisions of the Revolving Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) expand the types of additional debt that may be secured by certain assets of the Company on a pari passu basis with the Revolving Credit Facility, subject to certain limitations, and (ii) increase the amount of additional secured debt permitted to be incurred by the Company, subject to certain conditions. The size of the Revolving Credit Facility is $1.265 billion following the amendment and restatement thereof. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an accordion feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility by an amount up to $632.5 million.
In April 2016, the Companys board of directors authorized an extension of the Companys stock repurchase program through February 28, 2017. The stock repurchase program was set to expire on September 30, 2016. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of its outstanding common stock in the open market at a price per share that meets certain thresholds below its net asset value per share, in accordance with the
guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company, in its discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had repurchased a total of 514,677 shares of its common stock in the open market under the stock repurchase program since its inception in September 2015, at an average price of $13.92 per share, including commissions paid, leaving approximately $92.8 million available for additional repurchases under the program.

OVERVIEW
We are a specialty finance company that is a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company incorporated in Maryland. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Investment Company Act).
We are externally managed by Ares Capital Management LLC (Ares Capital Management or our investment adviser), a subsidiary of Ares Management L.P. (NYSE: ARES) (Ares Management), a publicly traded, leading global alternative asset manager, pursuant to our investment advisory and management agreement. Our administrator, Ares Operations LLC (Ares Operations or our administrator), a subsidiary of Ares Management, provides certain administrative and other services necessary for us to operate.
Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We invest primarily in first lien senior secured loans (including unitranche loans), second lien senior secured loans and mezzanine debt, which in some cases includes an equity component like warrants.
To a lesser extent, we also make preferred and/or common equity investments, which have generally been non-control equity investments, of less than $20 million (usually in conjunction with a concurrent debt investment). However, we may increase the size or change the nature of these investments.
Since our initial public offering (IPO) on October 8, 2004 through March 31, 2016, our exited investments resulted in an aggregate cash flow realized internal rate of return to us of approximately 13% (based on original cash invested, net of syndications, of approximately $12.5 billion and total proceeds from such exited investments of approximately $15.3 billion). Internal rate of return is the discount rate that makes the net present value of all cash flows related to a particular investment equal to zero. Internal rate of return is gross of expenses related to investments as these expenses are not allocable to specific investments. Investments are considered to be exited when the original investment objective has been achieved through the receipt of cash and/or non-cash consideration upon the repayment of a debt investment or sale of an investment or through the determination that no further consideration was collectible and, thus, a loss may have been realized. Approximately 69% of these exited investments resulted in an aggregate cash flow realized internal rate of return to us of 10% or greater.
Additionally, since our IPO on October 8, 2004 through March 31, 2016, our realized gains have exceeded our realized losses by approximately $506 million (excluding a one-time gain on the acquisition of Allied Capital Corporation (Allied Capital) and realized gains/losses from the extinguishment of debt and other assets). For this same time period, our average annualized net realized gain rate was approximately 1.1% (excluding a one-time gain on the acquisition of Allied Capital and realized gains/losses from the extinguishment of debt and other assets). Net realized gain/loss rates for a particular period are the amount of net realized gains/losses during such period divided by the average quarterly investments at amortized cost in such period.
Information included herein regarding internal rates of return, realized gains and losses and annualized net realized gain rates are historical results relating to our past performance and are not necessarily indicative of future results, the achievement of which cannot be assured.
As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in qualifying assets, including securities and indebtedness of private U.S. companies and certain public U.S. companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. We also may invest up to 30% of our portfolio in non-qualifying assets, as permitted by the Investment Company Act. Specifically, as part of this 30% basket, we may invest in entities that are not considered eligible portfolio companies (as defined in the Investment Company Act), including companies located outside of the United States, entities that are operating pursuant to certain exceptions under the Investment Company Act, and publicly traded entities whose public equity market capitalization exceeds the levels provided for under the Investment Company Act.
We have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company, or a RIC, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to our stockholders generally at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. Pursuant to this election, we generally will not have to pay U.S. federal corporate-level taxes on any income that we distribute to our stockholders provided that we satisfy those requirements.

Ares Capital Management, our investment adviser, employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our investment adviser grades the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 4 no less frequently than quarterly. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account under certain circumstances the performance of the portfolio companys business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. Under this system, investments with a grade of 4 involve the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The trends and risk factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally favorable, which may include the performance of the portfolio company or a potential exit. Investments graded 3 involve a level of risk to our initial cost basis that is similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. This portfolio company is generally performing as expected and the risk factors to our ability to ultimately recoup the cost of our investment are neutral to favorable. All investments or acquired investments in new portfolio companies are initially assessed a grade of 3. Investments graded 2 indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has increased materially since origination or acquisition, including as a result of factors such as declining performance and non-compliance with debt covenants; however, payments are generally not more than 120 days past due. An investment grade of 1 indicates that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has substantially increased since origination or acquisition, and the portfolio company likely has materially declining performance. For debt investments with an investment grade of 1, most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. For investments graded 1, it is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis upon exit. For investments graded 1 or 2, our investment adviser enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company. The grade of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time.
Set forth below is the grade distribution of our portfolio companies as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the weighted average grade of the investments in our portfolio at fair value was 3.0 and 3.0, respectively.
As of March 31, 2016, loans on non-accrual status represented 1.3% and 0.6% of the total investments at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively. As of December 31, 2015, loans on non-accrual status represented 2.6% and 1.7% of the total investments at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively.
Senior Direct Lending Program
In December 2015, we established a joint venture with Varagon Capital Partners (Varagon) to make certain first lien senior secured loans, including certain stretch senior and unitranche loans, to U.S. middle-market companies. Varagon was formed in 2013 as a lending platform by American International Group, Inc. (NYSE:AIG) and other partners. The joint venture is called the Senior Direct Lending Program (the SDLP). It is expected that the SDLP will commit and hold individual loans of up to $300 million. We may directly co-invest with the SDLP to accommodate larger transactions. We will provide capital to the SDLP in the form of subordinated certificates (the SDLP Certificates), and Varagon will provide capital to the SDLP in the form of senior notes, intermediate funding notes and SDLP Certificates. It is expected that we and Varagon will own 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of any outstanding SDLP Certificates.
As of March 31, 2016, we and Varagon had agreed to make capital available to the SDLP of $2.9 billion in the aggregate, of which no amounts were funded. The SDLP will be capitalized as transactions are completed. All portfolio decisions and generally all other decisions in respect of the SDLP must be approved by an investment committee of the SDLP consisting of representatives of ours and Varagon (with approval from a representative of each required). As of March 31, 2016, we had agreed to make available to the SDLP (subject to the approval of the investment committee of the SDLP as described above) approximately $591 million, of which no amounts were committed or funded. The SDLP Certificates will pay a coupon of LIBOR plus a stated spread and also entitle the holders thereof to receive a portion of the excess cash flow from the loan portfolio, which may result in a return to the holders of the SDLP Certificates that is greater than the stated coupon. The SDLP Certificates are junior in right of payment to the senior notes and intermediate funding notes.
During the three months ended December 31, 2015, we entered into an agreement with the SDLP to sell certain of our investments to the SDLP at a mutually agreed upon price on a future date. The value of the agreement with the SDLP will change as the fair value of the identified loans changes and as additional loans are added to such agreement. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016, for more information on the agreement.
Senior Secured Loan Program
We have co-invested in first lien senior secured loans of middle market companies with GE through the SSLP. The SSLP has been capitalized as transactions are completed. All portfolio decisions and generally all other decisions in respect of the SSLP must be approved by an investment committee of the SSLP consisting of representatives of ours and GE (with
approval from a representative of each required). We have provided capital to the SSLP in the form of subordinated certificates (the SSLP Certificates).
In August 2015, GE completed the sale of its U.S. Sponsor Finance business, through which GE had participated with us in the SSLP, to Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB). This sale excluded GEs interest in the SSLP, and we and GE continue to operate the SSLP. We and GE no longer have an obligation to present senior secured lending investment opportunities to the SSLP and since June 30, 2015, the SSLP has not made any investments related to new portfolio companies; however, we and GE may provide capital to support the SSLPs funding of existing commitments (see below) and other amounts to its portfolio companies. On August 24, 2015, we were advised that GECC, as the holder of the senior notes of the SSLP (the Senior Notes), directed State Street Bank and Trust Company, as trustee of the Senior Notes and the SSLP Certificates, pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the Senior Notes and the SSLP Certificates, to apply all principal proceeds received by the SSLP from its investments to the repayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Notes until paid in full (prior to the distribution of any such principal proceeds to the holders of the SSLP Certificates, which includes us). GECC had previously elected to waive its right to receive priority repayments on the Senior Notes from principal proceeds in most circumstances. Prior to closing the sale to CPPIB, GE had announced its intention to provide us and CPPIB the opportunity to work together on the SSLP on a go-forward basis. GECC has also stated that if a mutual agreement between us and CPPIB to partner on the SSLP is not reached, it intends to retain its interest in the SSLP and the SSLP would be wound down in an orderly manner. We have been in dialogue with GE and CPPIB to determine if there is an opportunity to work together; however, to date there has been no agreement in respect of the SSLP as a result of these discussions and there can be no assurance that such discussions will continue or any such agreement will be reached. In addition to discussions with CPPIB and GECC, we are also exploring other options with respect to the SSLPs portfolio, although there can be no assurance that we will pursue any of them.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we and GE had outstanding amounts funded of approximately $7.6 billion and $8.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, respectively, to the SSLP. As discussed above, we anticipate that no new investments will be made by the SSLP and that we and GE will only provide additional capital to support the SSLPs funding of existing commitments and other amounts to its portfolio companies. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the SSLP had commitments to fund delayed draw loans to certain of its portfolio companies of $145.4 million and $198.6 million, respectively, which had been approved by the investment committee of the SSLP as described above.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had outstanding amounts funded of approximately $2.0 billion and $2.0 billion in aggregate principal amount, respectively, to the SSLP. Additionally, as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had commitments to co-invest in the SSLP for our portion of the SSLPs commitments to fund delayed draw loans to portfolio companies of up to $23.6 million and $32.6 million, respectively. As discussed above, it is not anticipated that we will make new investments through the SSLP.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the SSLP had total assets of $7.6 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, GEs investment in the SSLP consisted of the Senior Notes of $5.3 billion and $6.2 billion, respectively, and SSLP Certificates of $286.3 million and $285.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we and GE owned 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of the outstanding SSLP Certificates.
The SSLP Certificates pay a weighted average coupon of LIBOR plus approximately 8.0% and also entitle the holders thereof to receive a portion of the excess cash flow from the loan portfolio, which may result in a return to the holders of the SSLP Certificates that is greater than the stated coupon. The SSLP Certificates are junior in right of payment to the Senior Notes held by GE. We expect that for so long as principal proceeds from SSLP repayments are directed entirely to repay the Senior Notes as discussed above, the yield on the SSLP Certificates will decline.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the portfolio was comprised of all first lien senior secured loans to U.S. middle-market companies. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, none of these loans were on non-accrual status. The portfolio companies in the SSLP are in industries similar to the companies in our portfolio.
Below is a summary of the SSLPs portfolio, followed by a listing of the individual first lien senior secured loans in the SSLPs portfolio as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

The amortized cost and fair value of our SSLP Certificates were $1.9 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, as of March 31, 2016, and $1.9 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2015. As described above, the SSLP Certificates pay a weighted average coupon of LIBOR plus approximately 8.0% and also entitle the holders thereof to receive a portion of the excess cash flow from the underlying loan portfolio, which may result in a return to the holders of the SSLP Certificates that is greater than both the coupon on the SSLP Certificates as well as the weighted average yield on the SSLPs portfolio of 6.8% and 6.7% as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Our yield on our investment in the SSLP at amortized cost and fair value was 11.8% and 12.1%, respectively, as of March 31, 2016, and 12.0% and 12.3%, respectively, as of December 31, 2015. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we earned interest income of $58.8 million and $68.3 million, respectively, from our investment in the SSLP Certificates.
We are also entitled to certain fees in connection with the SSLP. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, in connection with the SSLP, we earned capital structuring service, sourcing and other fees totaling $5.8 million and $14.7 million, respectively.

The increase in interest income from investments for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from the comparable period in 2015 was primarily due to an increase in the size of our portfolio, which increased from an average of $8.6 billion at amortized cost for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to an average of $9.2 billion at amortized cost for the comparable period in 2016. The decrease in capital structuring service fees for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from the comparable period in 2015 was primarily due to the decrease in the weighted average capital structuring fees received on new investment commitments, which decreased from 4.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 3.3% in the comparable period in 2016, as well as the decrease in new investment commitments, which decreased from $500.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $470.6 million for the comparable period in 2016. Dividend income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 included dividends received from Ivy Hill Asset Management, L.P. (IHAM), a wholly owned portfolio company, totaling $10.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively. The dividends received from IHAM for the three months ended March 31, 2015 included additional dividends of $10.0 million that were paid in addition to the quarterly dividends generally paid by IHAM. IHAM paid the additional dividends out of accumulated earnings that had previously been retained by IHAM. Also during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we received $1.4 million in other non-recurring dividends from non-income producing equity securities compared to $1.5 million for the comparable period in 2015.

Stated interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016 decreased from the comparable period in 2015 primarily due to the decrease in our weighted average stated interest rate of our debt outstanding, partially offset by an increase
in the average principal amount of debt outstanding. The weighted average stated interest rate on our outstanding debt was 4.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to 5.2% for the comparable period in 2015 primarily as a result of the maturity of the higher cost $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes (the February 2016 Convertible Notes) and increased utilization of the Companys lower cost revolving facilities. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, our average principal debt outstanding increased to $4.1 billion as compared to $3.6 billion for the comparable period in 2015.
The increase in base management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from the comparable period in 2015 was primarily due to the increase in the size of the portfolio. The decrease in income based fees for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from the comparable period in 2015 was primarily due to the decrease in net investment income excluding income based fees and capital gains incentive fees.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the capital gains incentive fees expense calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was $3.8 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the reduction in capital gains incentive fees calculated in accordance with GAAP was $4.2 million. Capital gains incentive fee expense accrual for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased from the comparable period in 2015 primarily due to net gains on investments, foreign currency and other transactions and the extinguishment of debt during the three months ended March 31, 2016 of $18.8 million compared to net losses of $21.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015. The capital gains incentive fee accrued under GAAP includes an accrual related to unrealized capital appreciation, whereas the capital gains incentive fee actually payable under our investment advisory and management agreement does not. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future. The accrual for any capital gains incentive fee under GAAP in a given period may result in an additional expense if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period or a reduction of previously recorded expense if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period. If such cumulative amount is negative, then there is no accrual. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the total capital gains incentive fee accrual calculated in accordance with GAAP was $46.0 million and $42.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was no capital gains incentive fee actually payable under our investment advisory and management agreement. See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016, for more information on the base management fees, income based fees and capital gains incentive fees.
Administrative fees represent fees paid to Ares Operations for our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by Ares Operations in performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our executive officers and their respective staffs. Other general and administrative expenses include professional fees, rent, insurance, depreciation and directors fees, among other costs.
Income Tax Expense, Including Excise Tax
We have elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code and operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify as a RIC, we must generally (among other requirements) timely distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. In order to maintain our RIC status, we have made and intend to continue to make the requisite distributions to our stockholders which will generally relieve us from U.S. federal corporate-level income taxes.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may choose to carry forward such taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions from such current year taxable income into the next tax year and pay a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. If we determine that our estimated current year taxable income will be in excess of estimated dividend distributions for the current year from such income, we accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as such taxable income is earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded a net expense of $3.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively, for U.S. federal excise tax.
Certain of our consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded a tax expense of approximately $2.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, for these subsidiaries.
Net Realized Gains/Losses
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we had $504.4 million of sales, repayments or exits of investments resulting in $25.5 million of net realized gains on investments. These sales, repayments or exits included $65.4 million of investments sold to IHAM and certain vehicles managed by IHAM. A net realized gain of $0.1 million was recorded on these transactions. See Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 for more detail on IHAM and its managed vehicles. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, net realized gains on investments of $25.5 million were comprised of $25.5 million of gross realized gains and no gross realized losses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from the net proceeds of public offerings of equity and debt securities, advances from the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Funding Facility and the SMBC Funding Facility (each as defined below and together, the Facilities), net proceeds from the issuance of other securities, including unsecured notes and Small Business Administration (SBA)-guaranteed debentures (the SBA Debentures), as well as cash flows from operations.
As of March 31, 2016, we had $77.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $4.1 billion in total aggregate principal amount of debt outstanding ($4.0 billion at carrying value). Subject to leverage, borrowing base and other restrictions, we had approximately $0.9 billion available for additional borrowings under the Facilities and the SBA Debentures as of March 31, 2016.
We may from time to time seek to retire or repurchase our common stock through cash purchases, as well as retire, cancel or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such purchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. In addition, we may from time to time enter into additional debt facilities, increase the size of existing facilities or issue additional debt securities, including unsecured debt and/or debt securities convertible into common stock. Any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. In accordance with the Investment Company Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, calculated pursuant to the Investment Company Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. As of March 31, 2016, our asset coverage was 226%.
Equity Capital Activities
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our total equity market capitalization was $4.7 billion and $4.5 billion, respectively. There were no sales of our equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
In September 2015, our board of directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of our outstanding common stock in the open market at certain thresholds below our net asset value per share, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by us, in our discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other
factors. The program will be in effect until September 30, 2016, unless extended or until the approved dollar amount has been used to repurchase shares. The program does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares and we cannot assure stockholders that any shares will be repurchased under the program. The program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. See Recent Developments, as well as Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 for more information on the stock repurchase program.
In connection with our stock repurchase program, in March 2016, we entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan to repurchase shares of our common stock in accordance with certain parameters set forth in such plan. We expect that the Rule 10b5-1 plan will be in effect until May 6, 2016, or until the approved dollar amount in the Rule 10b5-1 plan has been used to repurchase shares. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we repurchased a total of 393,056 shares of our common stock in the open market for $5.5 million under the stock repurchase program. The shares were repurchased at an average price of $13.92 per share, including commissions paid.

SBA Debentures
In April 2015, our wholly owned subsidiary, Ares Venture Finance, L.P. (AVF LP), received a license from the SBA to operate as a Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) under the provisions of Section 301(c) of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended. The SBA places certain limitations on the financing of investments by SBICs in portfolio companies, including regulating the types of financings, restricting investments to only include small businesses with certain characteristics or in certain industries, and requiring capitalization thresholds that may limit distributions to us.
The license from the SBA allows AVF LP to obtain leverage by issuing the SBA Debentures, subject to issuance of a capital commitment by the SBA and other customary procedures. Leverage through the SBA Debentures is subject to required capitalization thresholds. Current SBA regulations limit the amount that any SBIC may borrow to $150.0 million and as of March 31, 2016, the amount of the SBA Debentures committed to AVF LP by the SBA was $75.0 million. The SBA Debentures are non-recourse to us, have interest payable semi-annually, have a ten-year maturity and may be prepaid at any time without penalty. As of March 31, 2016, AVF LP had $25.0 million of the SBA Debentures issued and outstanding, which mature between September 2025 and March 2026. AVF LP is subject to an annual periodic examination by an SBA examiner to determine AVF LPs compliance with the relevant SBA regulations and an annual financial audit of its financial statements that are prepared on a basis of accounting other than GAAP (such as ASC 820) by an independent auditor. As of March 31, 2016, AVF LP was in compliance in all material respects with SBA regulatory requirements.
The interest rate for the SBA Debentures is fixed at the time the SBA Debentures and other applicable issued SBA-guaranteed debentures can be pooled and sold to the public and is based on a spread over U.S. treasury notes with ten-year maturities. The pooling of newly issued SBA-guaranteed debentures occurs twice per year. The spread includes an annual charge as determined by the SBA (the Annual Charge) as well as a market-driven component. Prior to the ten-year fixed interest rate being determined, the interest rate charged for the SBA Debentures is based on LIBOR plus an applicable spread of 0.30% and the Annual Charge. As of March 31, 2016, the weighted average interest rate in effect for the SBA Debentures was 3.48%.
Convertible Unsecured Notes
In February 2016, we repaid in full the $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes upon their maturity.
We have issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes that mature on June 1, 2016 (the June 2016 Convertible Notes), $162.5 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes that mature on March 15, 2017 (the 2017 Convertible Notes), $270.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes that mature on January 15, 2018 (the 2018 Convertible Notes) and $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes that mature on January 15, 2019 (the 2019 Convertible Notes and together with the June 2016 Convertible Notes, the 2017 Convertible Notes and the 2018 Convertible Notes, the Convertible Unsecured Notes). The Convertible Notes mature upon their respective maturity dates unless previously converted or repurchased in accordance with their terms. We do not have the right to redeem the Convertible Unsecured Notes prior to maturity. The June 2016 Convertible Notes, the 2017 Convertible Notes, the 2018 Convertible Notes and the 2019 Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.125% , 4.875% , 4.750% and 4.375%, respectively, per year, payable semi-annually.
In certain circumstances, the Convertible Unsecured Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election, at their respective conversion rates (listed below as of March 31, 2016) subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments and the requirements of their respective indenture (the Convertible Unsecured Notes Indentures). To the extent the June 2016 Convertible Unsecured Notes are converted, we have elected to settle with a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding their respective conversion date (listed below), holders may convert their Convertible Unsecured Notes only under certain circumstances set forth in the respective Convertible Unsecured Notes Indenture. On or after their respective conversion dates until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding their respective maturity date, holders may convert their Convertible Unsecured Notes at any time. In addition, if we engage in certain corporate events as described in their respective Convertible Unsecured Notes Indenture, holders of the Convertible Unsecured Notes may require us to repurchase for cash all or part of the Convertible Unsecured Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Unsecured Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest through, but excluding, the required repurchase date.

We have issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes, which bear interest at a rate of 3.875% per year and mature on January 15, 2020 (the 2020 Notes). The 2020 Notes require payment of interest semi-annually, and all principal is due upon maturity. These notes are redeemable in whole or in part at any time at our option at a redemption price equal to par plus a make whole premium, if applicable, as determined pursuant to the indenture governing the 2020 Notes, and any accrued and unpaid interest. $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes were issued at a discount to the principal amount and $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes were issued at a premium of 100.2% of their principal amount.
October 2022 Notes
We have issued $182.5 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes, which bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year and mature on October 1, 2022 (the October 2022 Notes). The October 2022 Notes require payment of interest quarterly and all principal is due upon maturity. These notes are redeemable in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option, at a par redemption price of $25.00 per security plus accrued and unpaid interest.
2047 Notes
As part of the Allied Acquisition, we assumed $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes which bear interest at a rate of 6.875% and mature on April 15, 2047 (the 2047 Notes and together with the 2018 Notes, the 2020 Notes and the October 2022 Notes, the Unsecured Notes). The 2047 Notes require payment of interest quarterly, and all principal is due upon maturity. These notes are redeemable in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option, at a par redemption price of $25.00 per security plus accrued and unpaid interest.
As of March 31, 2016, we were in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Convertible Unsecured Notes Indentures and the indentures governing the Unsecured Notes.
The Convertible Unsecured Notes and the Unsecured Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Unsecured Notes and the Unsecured Notes; equal in right of payment to our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not expressly subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness (including existing unsecured indebtedness that we later secure) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by our subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.
See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 for more detail on our debt obligations.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have various commitments to fund investments in our portfolio, as described below.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had the following commitments to fund various revolving and delayed draw senior secured and subordinated loans, including commitments to fund which are at (or substantially at) our discretion:

Included within the total revolving and delayed draw loan commitments as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were delayed draw loan commitments totaling $137.5 million and $148.6 million, respectively. Our commitment to fund delayed draw loans is triggered upon the satisfaction of certain pre-negotiated terms and conditions. Generally, the most significant and uncertain term requires the borrower to satisfy a specific use of proceeds covenant. The use of proceeds covenant typically requires the borrower to use the additional loans for the specific purpose of a permitted acquisition or permitted investment, for example. In addition to the use of proceeds covenant, the borrower is generally required to satisfy additional negotiated covenants (including specified leverage levels).
Also included within the total revolving and delayed draw loan commitments as of March 31, 2016 were commitments to issue up to $45.2 million in letters of credit through a financial intermediary on behalf of certain portfolio companies. As of March 31, 2016, we had $13.8 million in letters of credit issued and outstanding under these commitments on behalf of the portfolio companies. For all these letters of credit issued and outstanding, we would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. None of these letters of credit issued and outstanding are recorded as a liability on our balance sheet as such letters of credit are considered in the valuation of the investments in the portfolio company. Of these letters of credit, $12.8 million expire in 2016 and $1.0 million expire in 2017.
We also have commitments to co-invest in the SSLP for our portion of the SSLPs commitments to fund delayed draw loans to certain portfolio companies of the SSLP. See Senior Secured Loan Program above and Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 for more information.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we were party to subscription agreements to fund equity investments in private equity investment partnerships as follows:

In the ordinary course of business, we may sell certain of our investments to third party purchasers. In particular, in connection with the sale of certain controlled portfolio company equity investments (as well as certain other sales), we have, and may continue to do so in the future, agreed to indemnify such purchasers for future liabilities arising from the investments and the related sale transaction. Such indemnification provisions have given rise to liabilities in the past and may do so in the future.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
In April 2016, we entered into an agreement to amend and restate the Revolving Credit Facility that, among other things, (a) extended the expiration of the revolving period for certain lenders electing to extend their commitments in an amount equal to $1.195 billion from May 4, 2019 to May 4, 2020, during which period we, subject to certain conditions, may make borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, (b) extended the stated maturity date for certain lenders electing to extend their commitments in an amount equal to $1.195 billion from May 4, 2020 to May 4, 2021, (c) permitted certain lenders electing not to extend their commitments in an amount equal to $70 million to remain subject to the existing revolving period and stated maturity in respect of their non-extending commitments, and (d) modified the debt and lien provisions of the Revolving Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) expand the types of additional debt that may be secured by certain assets of ours on a pari passu basis with the Revolving Credit Facility, subject to certain limitations, and (ii) increase the amount of additional secured debt permitted to be incurred by us, subject to certain conditions. The size of the Revolving Credit Facility is $1.265 billion following the amendment and restatement thereof. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an accordion feature that allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility by an amount up to $632.5 million.
In April 2016, our board of directors authorized an extension of our stock repurchase program through February 28, 2017. Our stock repurchase program was set to expire on September 30, 2016. Under the stock repurchase program, we may repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of our outstanding common stock in the open market at a price per share that meets certain thresholds below its net asset value per share, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by us, in our discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. As of March 31, 2016, we had repurchased a total of 514,677 shares of our common stock in the open market under the stock repurchase program since its inception in September 2015, at an average price of $13.92 per share, including commissions paid, leaving approximately $92.8 million available for additional repurchases under the program.
From April 1, 2016 through April 27, 2016, we made new investment commitments of approximately $123 million, of which $123 million were funded. Of these new commitments, 69% were in second lien senior secured loans, 29% were in senior subordinated loans and 2% were in other equity securities. Of the approximately $123 million of new investment commitments, 69% were floating rate, 29% were fixed rate and 2% were non-interest bearing. The weighted average yield of debt and other income producing securities funded during the period at amortized cost was 11.5%. We may seek to sell all or a portion of these new investment commitments, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so.
From April 1, 2016 through April 27, 2016, we exited approximately $335 million of investment commitments. Of these investment commitments, 61% were second lien senior secured loans, 29% were first lien senior secured loans, 7% were senior subordinated loans and 3% were other equity securities. Of the approximately $335 million of exited investment commitments, 88% were floating rate, 9% were fixed rate and 3% were non-interest bearing. The weighted average yield of debt and other income producing securities exited or repaid during the period at amortized cost was 9.7%. On the approximately $335 million of investment commitments exited from April 1, 2016 through April 27, 2016, we recognized total net realized gains of approximately $23 million.
In addition, as of April 27, 2016, we had an investment backlog and pipeline of approximately $260 million and $210 million, respectively. Investment backlog includes transactions approved by our investment advisers investment committee and/or for which a formal mandate, letter of intent or a signed commitment have been issued, and therefore we believe are likely to close. Investment pipeline includes transactions where due diligence and analysis are in process, but no formal mandate, letter of intent or signed commitment have been issued. The consummation of any of the investments in this backlog and pipeline depends upon, among other things, one or more of the following: satisfactory completion of our due diligence investigation of the prospective portfolio company, our acceptance of the terms and structure of such investment and the execution and delivery of satisfactory transaction documentation. In addition, we may sell all or a portion of these investments and certain of these investments may result in the repayment of existing investments. We cannot assure you that we will make any of these investments or that we will sell all or any portion of these investments.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016, which describes our critical accounting policies and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet required to be adopted by us.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and the valuations of our investment portfolio.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.
As of March 31, 2016, 80% of the investments at fair value in our portfolio bore interest at variable rates, 10% bore interest at fixed rates, 9% were non-interest earning and 1% were on non-accrual status. Additionally, for the variable rate investments, 73% of these investments contained interest rate floors (representing 59% of total investments at fair value). Also, as of March 31, 2016, all the loans made through the SSLP contained interest rate floors. The Facilities all bear interest at variable rates with no interest rate floors, while the SBA Debentures, the Unsecured Notes and the Convertible Unsecured Notes bear interest at fixed rates.
We regularly measure our exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities. Based on that review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates.
While hedging activities may mitigate our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates, certain hedging transactions that we may enter into in the future, such as interest rate swap agreements, may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio investments. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively hedge our interest rate risk.
Based on our March 31, 2016, balance sheet, the following table shows the annual impact on net income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them of material information relating to the Company that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
There have been no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
We are party to certain lawsuits in the normal course of business. In addition, Allied Capital was involved in various legal proceedings that we assumed in connection with the Allied Acquisition. Furthermore, third parties may try to seek to impose liability on us in connection with our activities or the activities of our portfolio companies. While the outcome of any such legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these legal proceedings will materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
On May 20, 2013, we were named as one of several defendants in an action (the Action) filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (the Pennsylvania Court) by the bankruptcy trustee of DSI Renal Holdings LLC and two related companies. On March 17, 2014, the Action was transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the Delaware Court) pursuant to a motion filed by the defendants and granted by the Pennsylvania Court. On May 6, 2014, the Delaware Court referred the Action to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint in the Action alleges, among other things, that each of the named defendants participated in a purported fraudulent transfer involving the restructuring of a subsidiary of DSI Renal Holdings LLC. Among other things, the complaint seeks, jointly and severally from all defendants, (1) damages of approximately $425 million, of which the complaint states our individual share is approximately $117 million, and (2) punitive damages. We are currently unable to assess with any certainty whether we may have any exposure in the Action. We believe the plaintiffs claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in the Action.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
We did not sell any equity securities during the period covered in this report that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
During three months ended March 31, 2016, as a part of our dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders, we purchased 453,216 shares of our common stock for an average price per share of $14.28 in the open market in order to satisfy the reinvestment portion of our dividends. The following chart outlines such purchases of our common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Stock Repurchase Program
In September 2015, our board of directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of our outstanding common stock in the open market at certain thresholds below its net asset value per share, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by us, in our discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. The program will be in effect until September 30, 2016, unless extended or until the approved dollar amount has been used to repurchase shares. The program does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares and it cannot assure stockholders that any shares will be repurchased under the program. The program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time.
In connection with our stock repurchase program, in March 2016, we entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan to repurchase shares of our common stock in accordance with certain parameters set forth in such plan. We expect that the Rule 10b5-1 plan will be in effect until May 6, 2016, or until the approved dollar amount in the Rule 10b5-1 plan has been used to repurchase shares.
Repurchases of our common stock under our stock repurchase program were as follows:
