MDLX Medley LLC

Medley Capital Corporation (NYSE: MCC, “MCC” or the “Company”) (TASE: MCC) today urged MCC shareholders to vote on the WHITE proxy card “FOR” its highly qualified directors Arthur Ainsberg and Seth Taube in connection with the election of directors to MCC’s Board of Directors at the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on June 4, 2019.

Messrs. Ainsberg and Taube bring deep institutional knowledge of the BDC space, financial services sector and credit markets, and have the required expertise and skill sets to drive long-term shareholder value.

ELECTION OF NEXPOINT’S NOMINEES IS NEITHER WARRANTED NOR IN SHAREHOLDERS’ BEST INTERESTS

• NexPoint is highly conflicted: it has proposed to assume control of MCC’s external management contract and capture value that rightfully belongs to MCC and its shareholders.   
• NexPoint and its affiliates have a concerning track record, which we believe would pose significant and unnecessary risks to MCC shareholders. 
• We believe NexPoint’s nominees could prove disruptive to the pending Go-Shop sales process contemplated by the Settlement Term Sheet.

Because forward-looking statements, such as the date that the parties expect the proposed transactions to be completed and the expectation that the proposed transactions will provide sustainable and increased profits, greater likelihood of dividend growth, lower cost of capital and improved liquidity for the Company’s stockholders and will be accretive to net investment income for the Company, include risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied and include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the Company’s filings with the SEC, and (i) the satisfaction or waiver of closing conditions relating to the proposed transactions described herein, including, but not limited to, the requisite approvals of the stockholders of each of Sierra, the Company, and MDLY, Sierra successfully taking all actions reasonably required with respect to certain outstanding indebtedness of the Company and MDLY to prevent any material adverse effect relating thereto, certain required approvals of the SEC, the necessary consents of certain third-party advisory clients of MDLY, and any applicable waiting period (and any extension thereof) applicable to the transactions under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, shall have expired or been terminated, (ii) the parties’ ability to successfully consummate the proposed transactions, and the timing thereof, and (iii) the possibility that competing offers or acquisition proposals related to the proposed transactions will be made and, if made, could be successful. Additional risks and uncertainties specific to the Company include, but are not limited to, (i) the costs and expenses that the Company has, and may incur, in connection with the proposed transactions (whether or not they are consummated), (ii) the impact that any litigation relating to the proposed transactions may have on the Company, (iii) that projections with respect to dividends may prove to be incorrect, (iv) the market performance of the combined portfolio, (v) the ability of portfolio companies to pay interest and principal in the future; (vi) whether Sierra, as the surviving company, will trade with more volume and perform better than the Company prior to the proposed transactions; and (vii) negative effects of entering into the proposed transactions on the trading volume and market price of the Company’s common stock. There can be no assurance of the level of any dividends to be paid, if any, following consummation of the merger. Investors are cautioned that, as a result of a number of factors (including those described above), there remains substantial uncertainty regarding the ability of MCC and Sierra to successfully consummate MCC’s proposed merger with Sierra.

The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements included in each of the Company’s, Sierra’s and MDLY’s filings with the SEC, including the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus relating to the proposed transactions, and in the “Risk Factors” sections of each of the Company’s, Sierra’s, and MDLY’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The forward-looking statements in this communication represent the Company’s views as of the date of hereof. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its views to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company has the current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law.
