In the news release, GSC Investment Corp. Declares Third Quarter Dividend of $0.25 per Share, issued earlier today by GSC Investment Corp. over PR Newswire, we are advised by the company that the fifth paragraph, last sentence, should read "The Board of Directors will consider the dividend for the fourth quarter ending February 28, 2009 ..." rather than "The Board of Directors will consider the dividend for the fourth quarter ending February 28, 2008 ..." as originally issued inadvertently. Complete, corrected release follows: NEW YORK, Dec. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GSC Investment Corp. (NYSE: GNV), a business development company ("BDC"), today announced that its Board of Directors has declared a dividend of $0.25 per share payable on December 29, 2008 to common stockholders of record on December 18, 2008. The dividend is for the third quarter ended November 30, 2008 of the Company's 2009 fiscal year, which ends February 28, 2009. The declared third quarter dividend of $0.25 per share represents a decrease of $0.14 per share over the Company's second quarter dividend of $0.39 per share. "We have taken important steps to improve GSC Investment Corp.'s ability to contend with the extreme conditions in the credit markets," said Seth M. Katzenstein, Chief Executive Officer of GSC Investment Corp. "Our portfolio has experienced only one default and continues to generate a consistent amount of income. However, unrealized depreciation in the value of our portfolio has reduced our borrowing capacity and limited our operational flexibility. Reducing our dividend increases our working capital and improves our ability to cope with the difficult credit conditions currently facing all BDCs. We appreciate that this dividend cut may be difficult for our shareholders in the short-term, but feel it is the best approach for maximizing long-term shareholder value." GSC Investment Corp.'s portfolio continues to demonstrate steady relative market performance. -- At present, there are no new non-performing investments. -- One defaulted obligation, Atlantis Plastics Films, Inc., has been realized. -- More than 70% of the portfolio remains in senior secured obligations. "We believe that our investment strategy of staying high in the capital structure of our portfolio companies will continue to be the best protection against the extraordinarily turbulent forces the market is currently experiencing," continued Mr. Katzenstein. "We have always employed a modest amount of leverage and sought investments that pay an attractive risk-adjusted return. We continue to believe that this strategy will drive positive, long-term performance." Dividend Policy Revision GSC Investment Corp. is also revising its dividend policy to better manage its capital in the face of continuing volatility in the credit markets. Starting with the fourth quarter of the 2009 fiscal year, GSC Investment Corp. plans to pay its quarterly dividend in arrears. This will enable the Company to maintain greater capital on hand to cope with credit market dislocations. The Board of Directors will consider the dividend for the fourth quarter ending February 28, 2009 of the Company's 2009 fiscal year during its regularly scheduled May 2009 quarterly meeting.
