To determine the likelihood of loss, the loans are rated on a 5-point scale as follows:
All investments are assigned an initial risk rating of 2 at origination or acquisition. As of September 30, 2025, six loans had a risk rating of 2, nine had a risk rating of 3, two had a risk rating of 4 and one had a risk rating of 5.
