Immediately following the closing of the block trade described herein, Mr. Tansey may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 4,851,787 shares of Common Stock, representing 28.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.  All percentages set forth in this statement on Schedule 13D are based upon the 16,758,779 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of March 25, 2014. As set forth below, Mr. Tansey’s beneficial ownership of 4,851,787 shares of Common Stock is comprised of his indirect beneficial ownership of the 4,844,562 shares of Common Stock owned directly by GSOF LLC, GSOF 2014 LLC, GSOF-SP LLC, GSOF-SP 2014 LLC, GSOF-SP II LLC, GSOF-SP II 2014 LLC, GSOF-SP DB LLC, GCOH SubCo 2014-1 LLC, GCOH SubCo 2014-2 LLC, GSOIF Corporate Loan Pools Ltd., Garrison Capital Fairchild I, Ltd., Garrison Capital Fairchild II Ltd. and Garrison Capital Advisers Holdings MM and his direct beneficial ownership of 7,225 shares of Common Stock.

 

On April 23, 2014, GSOF LLC, GSOF-SP LLC, GSOF-SP II LLC, GSOF-SP DB LLC, GCOH SubCo 2014-1 LLC and GSOIF Corporate Loan Pools Ltd. entered into agreements to sell in a block trade to accounts managed by a large institutional investor with existing holdings in the Issuer 45,686, 81,581, 43,022, 71,321, 330,281 and 28,109 shares of Common Stock, respectively, at a price of $14.00 per share.  Mr. Tansey has no pecuniary interest in these shares of Common Stock.

Mr. Tansey indirectly beneficially owns 67,602 shares of Common Stock through investments in Garrison Capital Advisers Holdings MM, which directly owns 67,602 shares of Common Stock. Due to his control and ownership interest in Garrison Capital Advisers Holdings MM, Mr. Tansey may be viewed as having shared voting power and shared dispositive power over all of the 67,602 shares of Common Stock owned directly by Garrison Capital Advisers Holdings MM.

 

Mr. Tansey also indirectly beneficially owns 19,132 shares of Common Stock through investments in GSOF LLC and GCOH SubCo 2014-1 LLC, which directly own 291,643 and 2,108,396 shares of Common Stock, respectively.  Mr. Tansey has sole voting power over these 19,132 shares of Common Stock, as the voting rights to the Common Stock owned by each entity have been passed through to the members or limited partners of each entity.

  

Mr. Tansey is a control person of Garrison Investment Group and its affiliates. Garrison Investment Group or one of its affiliates serves as investment adviser, directly or indirectly, to GSOF LLC, GSOF 2014 LLC, GSOF-SP LLC, GSOF-SP 2014 LLC, GSOF-SP II LLC, GSOF-SP II 2014 LLC, GSOF-SP DB LLC, GCOH SubCo 2014-1 LLC, GCOH SubCo 2014-2 LLC, GSOIF Corporate Loan Pools Ltd., Garrison Capital Fairchild I, Ltd. and Garrison Capital Fairchild II Ltd., which directly own 291,643, 7,750, 520,776, 4,079, 274,631, 1,261, 455,298, 2,108,396, 11,382, 179,436, 340,801 and 581,907 shares of Common Stock, respectively, after giving effect to the block trade. After giving effect to the block trade, Garrison Investment Group’s beneficial ownership of 4,777,360 shares of Common Stock is comprised of its indirect beneficial ownership of the 4,777,360 shares of Common Stock owned directly by such entities. Each entity received shares of Common Stock in exchange for the limited liability company interests each entity owned in Garrison Capital LLC, the Issuer’s predecessor entity, upon the conversion of the Issuer from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation on October 9, 2012.  Garrison Investment Group and its affiliates may be viewed as having shared dispositive power over all of the 4,777,360 shares of Common Stock owned directly by such entities, although voting rights to the Common Stock have been passed through to the members or limited partners of each entity.  Mr. Tansey disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
