Prospect
Capital Corporation (the “Company”) has been informed that one of the proposed
co-managers of the Company’s proposed offering of shares of its common stock
(the “Offering”) asserted to certain potential investors in the Offering
erroneous details as to a possible disposition of Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc.
(“Gas Solutions”), when there is currently no agreement and therefore no details
to disclose. Such entity will not serve as a co-manager of the
Offering. As previously disclosed, the Company is seeking to monetize its
investment in Gas Solutions. While the Company has from time to time been
in negotiations regarding a potential disposition, the Company has not reached
any agreement regarding a price, structure, or otherwise regarding a proposed
transaction. The Company cannot assure you if or when the Company would
consummate any such transaction or the price or structure of any such
transaction.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Registrant has duly caused this
Current Report on Form 8-K to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned
hereunto duly authorized.
