Description of Advisory Services (including any specializations) Steele Creek provides certain investment advisory services and certain administrative functions to the Funds, primarily investing in broadly syndicated loans. Our business focuses on acquisition, execution, management, and redemption of loans. The BDC may also
invest in certain instruments that are not suitable for the CLO Funds. We intend to launch other CLO funds in the upcoming year(s). Steele Creek may also provide investment services to additional private funds. C. Availability of Tailored Services for Individual Clients We provide active investment management services for our Funds. Our services include the following:
• Establish “warehouse” facilities that will be used to seed CLO Funds. A CLO entity will purchase a portfolio of loans (or acquire the risk of loss on a loan portfolio pursuant to a derivative contract) before it issues securities; these transactions (and the financing for them) are known as “warehousing” and the CLO Fund is thus known as the “warehouse” prior to securities issuance.
• Structure, negotiate, document, and market CLO Funds.
• Provide the Trustee of the CLO Funds (the Administrator) with accurate and timely information and reconcile all reports produced by the Trustee to ensure proper reporting and investor distributions.
• Purchase loans and other investments for the BDC.
• Active portfolio management including selecting, underwriting, monitoring, and realization of each Fund investment.
• Manage the Funds to ensure compliance with investor’s objectives and constraints, and Governing Agreement (as defined below) guidelines. The relationship between us and each Fund is governed by the Fund documents. In the case of the CLO Funds, this includes an indenture and a collateral management agreement between us and each CLO Fund (the “CLO Governing Agreements”). In the case of the BSL Fund, this includes the limited partnership agreement and other documents (the “BSL Governing Agreements”). In the case of the BDC, this includes the private placement memorandum (“PPM”) and public filings (the “BDC Governing Documents”) (collectively, the CLO Governing Agreements, the BSL Governing Agreements and the BDC Governing Documents shall be referred to as the “Governing Agreements”) Investments in a CLO Fund are privately 5 | P a g e offered only to qualified purchasers, typically institutional investors, through a placement agent with a broker dealer; the BSL Fund was offered to qualified purchasers. The BDC is privately offered to accredited investors through our relationship with S2K Financial, LLC a registered broker dealer. As a registered investment adviser with the Securities Exchange Commission, the relationship between us and each Fund is governed by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Funds primarily participate in non-investment grade, high yield senior loans. Other portfolio investments may include limited second lien and unsecured loans. The investment advice we provide is limited to portfolio management services provided to the Funds. D. Client Assets Under Management.
