On July 17, 2012, the Reporting Person completed an underwritten public offering of 5,250,000 shares of its Common Stock at a public offering price of $14.35 per share (the “Primary Offering”). In connection with the Primary Offering, the underwriters purchased an additional 676,802 shares with the exercise of the over-allotment option. As a result, pursuant to the LLC Agreement as described in Item 6, the Reporting person used the aggregate net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions) from the Primary Offering of $82,299,572.57 to acquire 5,926,802 Units.

 

On September 28, 2012, the Reporting Person completed an underwritten public offering of 4,000,000 shares of its Common Stock at a public offering price of $15.00 per share (the “Resale Offering”) on behalf of New Mountain Finance AIV Holdings Corporation (“AIV Holdings”). In connection with the Resale Offering, AIV Holdings tendered 4,000,000 Units held by AIV Holdings to the Reporting Person in exchange for $58,400,000 of net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions) and the Reporting Person issued 4,000,000 shares of its Common Stock directly to the underwriters for the Resale Offering.

Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following:

 

On July 17, 2012, the Reporting Person completed the Primary Offering of 5,250,000 shares of its Common Stock at a public offering price of $14.35 per share. In connection with the Primary Offering, the underwriters purchased an additional 676,802 shares with the exercise of the over-allotment option.

The underwriters for the Resale Offering have a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 600,000 shares of the Reporting Person’s Common Stock, which, if such option is exercised, would require AIV Holdings to tender a corresponding number of additional Units held by AIV Holdings to the Reporting Person and instruct the Reporting Person to issue such shares directly to the underwriters for the Resale Offering.
