On August 13, 2019, Bain Capital Specialty Finance, Inc. (the 'Company'), through BCC Middle Market CLO 2019-1, LLC (the 'Issuer'), a Cayman Islands limited liability company and a wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiary of the Company, and BCC Middle Market CLO 2019-1Co-Issuer, LLC (the 'Co-Issuer' and, together with the Issuer, the 'Co-Issuers'), a Delaware limited liability company, priced its $501,000,000 million term debt securitization (the 'CLO Transaction'). The transaction is expected to close on August 28, 2019. The notes offered by the Co-Issuers in the CLO Transaction (the '2019-1 Notes') are secured by a diversified portfolio of the Issuer consisting primarily of middle market loans and participation interests in middle market loans, the majority of which are senior secured loans. The CLO Transaction is expected to be executed through a private placement of: $222,500,000 million of AAA Class A-1 Notes, which will bear interest at three-month London Interbank Offered Rate ('LIBOR') plus 1.70%; $50,750,000 million of AA Class A-2A Notes, which will bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus 2.70%; $13,000,000 million of AA Class A-2B Notes, which will bear interest at 4.23%; $30,000,000 million of A Class B Notes, which will bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus 3.60%; and $32,500,000 million of BBB- Class C Notes, which will bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus 4.75%. In furtherance of the CLO Transaction, the Company expects that the Co-Issuers will also incur $50,000,000 of Class A-1L Loans (the 'Loans' and, together with the 2019-1 Notes, the 'Debt'). The Company has held 100% of the membership interests (the 'Membership Interests') in the Issuer since the Issuer's formation on June 20, 2019 and expects to hold such interests at and after the closing of the CLO Transaction. The Membership Interests do not bear interest and will have a nominal value of approximately $102,250,000 million at closing of the CLO Transaction. The Company expects that the Debt will be scheduled to mature on October 15, 2031.

The Debt will be the secured obligations of the Issuer, and the indenture governing the 2019-1 Debt and the credit agreement governing the Loans, as applicable, include customary covenants and events of default. The Debt has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities or 'blue sky' laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') or an applicable exemption from registration. This report is not a solicitation for or an offer to purchase the Debt.
