TORTOISE CAPITAL RESOURCES CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MAY 31, 2007

(UNAUDITED)

1.	Organization

Tortoise Capital Resources Corporation (the "Company") was organized as a Maryland corporation on September 8, 2005, and is a non-diversified closed-end management investment company focused on the U.S. energy infrastructure sector. The Company invests primarily in privately held and micro-cap public companies operating in the midstream and downstream segments, and to a lesser extent the upstream segment. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company is externally managed by Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C., an investment advisor specializing in managing portfolios of securities of MLPs and other energy companies.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies

A. Use of Estimates– The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, recognition of distribution income and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

B. Investment Valuation– The Company invests primarily in illiquid securities including debt and equity securities of privately-held companies. The investments generally are subject to restrictions on resale, have no established trading market and are fair valued on a quarterly basis. Fair value is intended to be the amount for which an investment could be exchanged in an orderly disposition over a reasonable period of time between willing parties other than in a forced liquidation or sale. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, the fair values of such investments, which are determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, may differ materially from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for the investments. The Company’s Board of Directors may consider other methods of valuing investments as appropriate and in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company has also retained an independent valuation firm to provide valuation assistance for particular investments, as requested by the Board of Directors.

The process for determining the fair value of a security of a private investment begins with determining the enterprise value of the company that issued the security. The fair value of the investment is based on the enterprise value at which a company could be sold in an orderly disposition over a reasonable period of time between willing parties. There is no one methodology to determine enterprise value and for any one company, enterprise value may best be expressed as a range of fair values, from which a single estimate of enterprise value will be derived.

If the portfolio company has an adequate enterprise value to support the repayment of its debt, the fair value of the Company’s loan or debt security normally corresponds to cost unless the portfolio company’s condition or other factors lead to a determination of fair value at a different amount. When receiving warrants or free equity securities (“nominal cost equity”), the Company allocates the cost basis of the nominal cost equity at the time of origination, if any. The fair value of equity interests in portfolio companies is determined based on various factors, including the enterprise value remaining for equity holders after repayment of debt and other preference capital, and other pertinent factors such as recent offers to purchase a company, recent transactions involving the purchase or sale of equity securities, or other liquidation events. The determined equity values are generally discounted when holding a minority position, when restrictions on resale are present, when there are specific concerns about the receptivity of the capital markets to a specific company at a certain time, or when other factors are present.

For freely tradable equity securities that are listed on a securities exchange, the Company values those securities at the closing price on that exchange on the valuation date. If the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Company uses the price of the exchange that it generally considers to be the principal exchange on which the security is traded. Securities listed on the NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. If there has been no sale on such exchange or NASDAQ on such day, the security is valued at the mean between bid and asked price on such day.

C. Interest and Fee Income– Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. When investing in instruments with an original issue discount or payment-in-kind interest, the Company will accrue interest income during the life of the investment, even though the Company will not necessarily be receiving cash as the interest is accrued. Fee income will include fees, if any, for due diligence, structuring, commitment and facility fees, transaction services, consulting services and management services rendered to portfolio companies and other third parties. Commitment and facility fees generally are recognized as income over the life of the underlying loan, whereas due diligence, structuring, transaction service, consulting and management service fees generally are recognized as income when services are rendered. For the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2007, the Company received no fee income.

D. Security Transactions and Investment Income– Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses are reported on an identified cost basis. Distributions received from the Company’s investments in limited partnerships and limited liability companies generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital. The Company records investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on information available from each company and/or other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from the entity after their tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions are not known until after the fiscal year-end of the Company.

For the period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through November 30, 2006, the Company estimated the allocation of investment income and return of capital for the distributions received from its portfolio companies within the Statement of Operations. For this period, the Company had estimated approximately 8 percent as investment income and approximately 92 percent as return of capital.

During the current period, the Company reclassified the amount of investment income and return of capital it recognized based on the 2006 tax reporting information received from the individual portfolio companies. This reclassification amounted to a decrease in pre-tax net investment income of approximately $314,000 or $0.04 per share ($195,000 or $0.02 per share, net of deferred tax benefit), an increase in unrealized appreciation of investments of approximately $300,000 or $0.03 per share ($186,000 or $0.02 per share, net of deferred tax expense) and an increase in realized gains of approximately $14,000 or $0.002 per share ($9,000 or $0.001 per share, net of deferred tax expense) for the period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through November 30, 2006. The reclassification is reflected in the accompanying Statements of Operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended May 31, 2007.

E. Dividends to Stockholders–The amount of any quarterly dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors. Distributions to stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The character of distributions made during the year may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. For the six-month period ended May 31, 2007, the Company’s dividends, for book purposes, were comprised entirely of return of capital. For the year ended November 30, 2006, the Company’s dividends, for book purposes were comprised of 61 percent investment income and 39 percent return of capital, and for tax purposes were comprised of 42 percent investment income and 58 percent return of capital. Had the information from the 2006 tax reporting information from the individual portfolio companies as described in the paragraph above been obtained prior to November 30, 2006, the Company's dividends, for book purposes, would have been comprised of 31percent investment income and 69 percent return of capital. The tax character of dividends paid for the year ended November 30, 2007 will be determined subsequent to year-end.

F. Federal and State Income Taxation– The Company, as a corporation, is obligated to pay federal and state income tax on its taxable income. The Company invests its assets primarily in limited partnerships (LPs) or limited liability companies (LLCs), which are treated as partnerships for federal and state income tax purposes. As a limited partner, the Company reports its allocable share of taxable income in computing its own taxable income. The Company’s tax expense or benefit will be included in the Statement of Operations based on the component of income or gains (losses) to which such expense or benefit relates. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

G. Organization Expenses and Offering Costs - The Company is responsible for paying all organization and offering expenses. Offering costs paid by the Company were charged as a reduction of paid-in capital at the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, and amounted to $850,574 (excluding underwriter commissions). Organizational expenses in the amount of $88,906 were expensed prior to the commencement of operations.

H. Indemnifications - Under the Company’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Company may enter into contracts that provide general indemnification to other parties. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred, and may not occur. However, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

I. Warrants - The Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of November 30, 2006 reflects a revision to the warrants and additional paid-in capital accounts. After further evaluation of the underlying assumptions and characteristics of the warrants, it was determined that $1,104,137 should be attributed to the value of the warrants and additional paid-in capital reduced by the same amount. This revision has no impact on net assets applicable to common stockholders or net asset value per common share outstanding.

J. Recent Accounting Pronouncements– In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open years as of the effective date. At this time, the Company is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact on the financial statements has not yet been determined.

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Company in the year beginning December 1, 2007. The changes to current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles from the application of this statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company has recently begun to evaluate the application of the statement, and is not in a position at this time to evaluate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Company’s financial statements.

3.	Concentration of Risk

The Company’s goal is to provide stockholders with a high level of total return with an emphasis on dividends and dividend growth. The Company invests primarily in privately issued unsecured subordinated debt and equity securities within the U.S. energy infrastructure sector that will generally be expected to pay interest or dividends on a current basis. The Company seeks to obtain enhanced returns through warrants or other equity conversion features within certain subordinated debt securities in which the Company invests. The Company may, for defensive purposes, temporarily invest all or a significant portion of its assets in investment grade securities, short-term debt securities and cash or cash equivalents. To the extent the Company uses this strategy it may not achieve its investment objective.

4.	Agreements

The Company has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. (the “Adviser”). Under the terms of the agreement, the Adviser is paid a fee consisting of a base management fee and an incentive fee.

The base management fee is 0.375 percent (1.5 percent annualized) of the Company’s average monthly Managed Assets, calculated and paid quarterly in arrears within thirty days of the end of each fiscal quarter. The term “Managed Assets” as used in the calculation of the management fee means total assets (including any assets purchased with or attributable to borrowed funds) minus accrued liabilities other than (1) deferred taxes, (2) debt entered into for the purpose of leverage, and (3) the aggregate liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred shares. The base management fee for any partial quarter is appropriately prorated.

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part, the investment income fee, is equal to 15 percent of the excess, if any, of the Company’s Net Investment Income for the fiscal quarter over a quarterly hurdle rate equal to 2 percent (8 percent annualized), and multiplied, in either case, by the Company’s average monthly Net Assets for the quarter. “Net Assets” means the Managed Assets less deferred taxes, debt entered into for the purposes of leverage and the aggregate liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred shares. “Net Investment Income” means interest income (including accrued interest that we have not yet received in cash), dividend and distribution income from equity investments (but excluding that portion of cash distributions that are treated as a return of capital), and any other income (including any fees such as commitment, origination, syndication, structuring, diligence, monitoring, and consulting fees or other fees that the Company is entitled to receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the fiscal quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for such quarter (including the base management fee, expense reimbursements payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, any interest expense, any accrued income taxes related to net investment income, and dividends paid on issued and outstanding preferred stock, if any, but excluding the incentive fee payable). Net Investment Income also includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest or income feature (such as original issue discount, debt or equity instruments with a payment-in-kind feature, and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Net Investment Income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses, or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. The investment income fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears within thirty (30) days of the end of each fiscal quarter, with the first potential fee commencing on December 8, 2006. The investment income fee calculation is adjusted appropriately on the basis of the number of calendar days in the first fiscal quarter the fee accrues or the fiscal quarter during which the Agreement is in effect in the event of termination of the Agreement during any fiscal quarter. The second part of the incentive fee payable to the Adviser, the capital gains fee, is equal to: (A) 15 percent of (i) the Company’s net realized capital gains (realized capital gains less realized capital losses) on a cumulative basis from December 8, 2005 to the end of each fiscal year, less (ii) any unrealized capital depreciation at the end of such fiscal year, less (B) the aggregate amount of all capital gains fees paid to the Adviser in prior fiscal years. The calculation of the capital gains fee includes any capital gains that result from the cash distributions that are treated as a return of capital. In that regard, any such return of capital will be treated as a decrease in the cost basis of an investment for purposes of calculating the capital gains fee. The capital gains fee is calculated and payable annually within thirty (30) days of the end of each fiscal year. Realized capital gains on a security will be calculated as the excess of the net amount realized from the sale or other disposition of such security over the adjusted cost basis for the security. Realized capital losses on a security will be calculated as the amount by which the net

amount realized from the sale or other disposition of such security is less than the adjusted cost basis of such security. Unrealized capital depreciation on a security will be calculated as the amount by which the Company’s adjusted cost basis of such security exceeds the fair value of such security at the end of a fiscal year. During the six-month period ended May 31, 2007, the Company accrued no investment income fees, and accrued $1,496,494 as a provision for capital gains incentive fees. The provision for capital gains incentive fees is a result of the increase in fair value and unrealized appreciation of investments. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the capital gains incentive fee is paid annually only if there are realization events and only if the calculation defined in the agreement results in an amount due.

All fiscal year-end valuations are determined by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the 1940 Act, and the policies and procedures of the Company. The Adviser shall use at least 25 percent of any capital gains fee received on or prior to December 8, 2007 to purchase the Company’s common stock in the open market. In the event the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated, the capital gains fee calculation shall be undertaken as of, and any resulting capital gains fee shall be paid within thirty (30) days of the date of termination. The Advisor may, from time to time, waive or defer all or any part of the compensation described in the Investment Advisory Agreement.

The Company has engaged U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, L.L.C. to serve as the Company’s fund accounting services provider. The Company pays the provider a monthly fee computed at an annual rate of $24,000 on the first $50,000,000 of the Company’s Net Assets, 0.0125 percent on the next $200,000,000 of Net Assets and 0.0075 percent on the balance of the Company’s Net Assets.

The Adviser has been engaged as the Company’s administrator. The Company pays the administrator a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.07 percent of aggregate average daily Managed Assets up to and including $150,000,000, 0.06 percent of aggregate average daily Managed Assets on the next $100,000,000, 0.05 percent of aggregate average daily Managed Assets on the next $250,000,000, and 0.02 percent on the balance. This fee is calculated and accrued daily and paid quarterly in arrears.

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. serves as the Company's transfer agent, dividend paying agent, and agent for the automatic dividend reinvestment plan.

U.S. Bank, N.A. serves as the Company's custodian. The Company pays the custodian a monthly fee computed at an annual rate of 0.015 percent on the first $200,000,000 of the Company's portfolio assets and 0.01 percent on the balance of the Company's portfolio assets, subject to a minimum annual fee of $4,800.

5.	Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes. Components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of May 31, 2007, and November 30, 2006 are as follows:

	May 31, 2007		November 30, 2006
Deferred tax asset:
Organization costs	$	30,406	$	31,532
Capital gain incentive fees		568,668		-
Net operating loss carryforwards		607,937		-
		1,207,011		31,532
Deferred tax liabilities:
Net unrealized gains on investment securities		3,791,118		124,967
Basis reduction of investment in MLPs		590,154		156,721
		4,381,272		281,688
Total net deferred tax liability	$	3,174,261	$	250,156

The amount of deferred tax asset for the net operating loss at May 31, 2007 is for the year to date operations for the year ended November 30, 2007.

Total income taxes differ from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate of 34 percent for the periods ended May 31, 2007 and 35 percent for the periods ended May 31, 2006 to net investment income (loss) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments before taxes, as follows.

Management has re-evaluated the rate at which it expects the components of deferred tax assets and liabilities to reverse in the future and has determined that 34 percent is reflective of its expected future federal income tax rate at which such amounts are expected to reverse. The impact of this change is not significant to income tax expense for the current period.

	For the three		For the three
	months ended		months ended
	May 31, 2007		May 31, 2006

Application of statutory income tax rate	$	1,904,282	$	31,280
State income taxes, net of federal taxes		224,033		3,575
Total	$	2,128,315	$	34,855

	For the six		For the period

State income taxes, net of federal taxes		272,528		9,842
Preferred dividends		86,925		-
Loss on redemption of preferred stock		248,162		-
Total	$	2,924,105	$	95,955

For the three months ended May 31, 2007, the components of income tax expense include deferred federal and state income taxes (net of federal benefit) of $1,904,282 and $224,033, respectively. For the three months ended May 31, 2006, the components of income tax expense include current federal and state income tax expense of $31,280 and $3,575, respectively.

For the six months ended May 31, 2007, the components of income tax expense include deferred federal and state income taxes (net of federal benefit) of $2,651,577 and $272,528, respectively. For the period from December 8, 2005 to May 31, 2006, the components of income tax expense include current federal and state income taxes (net of federal benefit) of $86,113 and $9,842, respectively.

At May 31, 2007, a valuation allowance was not recorded because the Company believes it is more likely that not that there is an ability to utilize its deferred tax asset.

As of May 31, 2007, the aggregate cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes was $119,074,866. At May 31, 2007, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was $12,674,097 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value was $1,144,438.

6.	Restricted Securities

7.	Investments in Affiliates and Control Entities

Investments representing 5 percent or more of the outstanding voting securities of a portfolio company result in that company being considered an affiliated company, as defined in the 1940 Act. Investments representing 25 percent or more of the outstanding voting securities of a portfolio company result in that company being considered a control company, as defined in the 1940 Act. The aggregate value of all securities of affiliates and controlled entities held by the Company as of May 31, 2007 amounted to $69,675,110 representing 56.1 percent of net assets applicable to common stockholders. A summary of affiliated transactions for each company which is or was an affiliate or controlled entity at May 31, 2007 or during the six months then ended is as follows:

8.	Investment Transactions

For the six-month period ended May 31, 2007, the Company purchased (at cost) securities in the amount of $58,000,016 and sold no securities (excluding short-term debt securities).

9.	Credit Facilities

On December 13, 2006, the Company entered into a $15,000,000 secured committed credit facility, maturing December 12, 2007, with U.S. Bank, N.A. The principal amount of the credit facility was subsequently increased to $20,000,000. The credit facility has a variable annual interest rate equal to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.75 percent, a non-usage fee equal to an annual rate of 0.375 percent of the difference between the total credit facility commitment and the average outstanding balance at the end of each day for the preceding fiscal quarter, and is secured with all assets of the Company. The non-usage fee is not applicable during a defined 120 day “resting period” following the initial public offering. Proceeds from the credit facility are used to execute the Company’s investment objective. The average principal balance and interest rate for the period during which the credit facility was utilized (December 22, 2006 through February 6, 2007) was approximately $11,600,000 and 7.08 percent, respectively.

On April 23, 2007, the Company replaced its previous revolving credit facility with U.S. Bank, N.A. and entered into a new secured committed credit facility with U.S. Bank, N.A. as a lender, agent and lead arranger, and Bank of Oklahoma, N.A. The new credit facility matures on March 21, 2008 and provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $20,000,000 that can be increased to $40,000,000 if certain conditions are met. The revolving credit facility has a variable annual interest rate equal to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.75 percent, a non-usage fee equal to an annual rate of 0.375 percent of the difference between the total credit facility commitment and the average outstanding balance at the end of each day for the preceding fiscal quarter, and is secured with all assets of the Company. The non-usage fee is not applicable during a defined 120 day “resting period” following the initial public offering. As of May 31, 2007, there was no outstanding principal balance under the credit facility.

Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

	For the three months ended May 31, 2007		For the three months ended May 31, 2006		For the six months ended May 31, 2007		Period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through May 31, 2006
Numerator for basic and diluted net increase in net assets applicable to common stockholders resulting from operations per common share	$	3,472,310	$	61,344	$	3,889,101	$	169,028
Denominator for basic weighted average shares		8,830,580		3,088,596		6,653,445		3,088,596
Average warrants outstanding		955,146		-		933,764		-
Denominator for diluted weighted average shares		9,785,726		3,088,596		7,587,209		3,088,596
Basic net increase in net assets applicable to common stockholders resulting from operations per common share	$	0.39	$	0.02	$	0.58	$	0.05
Diluted net increase in net assets applicable to common stockholders resulting from operations per common share	$	0.35	$	0.02	$	0.51	$	0.05

Warrants to purchase 772,124 shares of common stock at $15.00 per share were outstanding during the three months ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through May 31, 2006 but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the warrants’ exercise price was greater than the average net asset value of the common shares, and therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive.

14.

Subsequent Events

On June 1, 2007, the Company paid a dividend in the amount of $0.16 per share, for a total of $1,414,035. Of this total, the dividend reinvestment amounted to $42,537.

Important Notice About the Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Board of Directors of the Company has approved amendments to the Company’s Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) as necessary or appropriate to ensure compliance with applicable law or the rules and policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and to clarify the procedures for dividend reinvestment.

If a stockholder’s shares of common stock (“common shares”) of the Company are registered directly with the Company or with a brokerage firm that participates in the Plan through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company and such stockholder’s account is coded dividend reinvestment by such brokerage firm, all distributions are automatically reinvested for stockholders by the Plan Agent, Computershare Trust Company, Inc. (the “Agent”).

The amendments to the Plan provide that the Company intends to use primarily newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock to implement the Plan, whether its shares are trading at a premium or discount to net asset value (“NAV”). However, the Company reserves the right to instruct the Agent, to purchase shares in the open market in connection with the Company’s obligations under the Plan. The number of newly issued shares will be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to the participant by the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on the distribution payment date, or the average of the reported bid and asked prices if no sale is reported for that day. If distributions are reinvested in shares purchased on the open market, then the number of shares received by a stockholder shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such stockholder by the weighted average price per share (including brokerage commissions and other related costs) for all shares purchased by the Agent on the open-market in connection with such distribution. Such open-market purchases will be made by the Agent as soon as practicable, but in no event more than 30 days after the distribution payment date. The plan previously provided that the Agent would receive from the Company newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock for each participant’s account only if the Company’s common stock was trading at a premium to NAV. In addition, the Plan previously provided that open-market purchases would be made prior to the next succeeding ex-dividend date.

The Plan, as amended, became effective on June 1, 2007.

Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated at any time without penalty by giving notice in writing to the Agent at the address set forth below, or by contacting the Agent as set forth below; such termination will be effective with respect to a particular distribution if notice is received prior to the record date for such distribution.

Additional information about the Plan may be obtained by writing to Computershare Trust Company, N.A., P.O. Box 43078, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-3078, by contacting them by phone at 312-588-4990, or by visiting their Web site at www.computershare.com.

Overview

We invest in companies operating in the U.S. energy infrastructure sector, primarily in privately-held and micro-cap public companies focused on the midstream and downstream segments, and to a lesser extent the upstream segment. We believe companies in the energy infrastructure sector generally produce stable cash flows as a result of their fee-based revenues and have limited direct commodity price risk. Our goal is to provide our stockholders with a high level of total return, with an emphasis on dividends and dividend growth. We invest primarily in the equity securities of companies that we expect to pay us distributions on a current basis and provide us distribution growth.

On February 1, 2007, we filed an election to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“the 1940 Act”), and we are classified as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company under the 1940 Act. As a BDC, we are subject to numerous regulations and restrictions. Unlike most investment companies, we are, and intend to continue to be, taxed as a general business corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”). The Company is externally managed by Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. (“the Adviser”), an investment advisor specializing in managing portfolios of securities of MLPs and other energy companies.

Portfolio and Investment Activity

In May 2007, we completed two additional new investments. We invested $12,250,000 in a newly formed private partnership, VantaCore Partners, L.P. The partnership was formed to acquire companies in the aggregate industry. Aggregate companies operate quarries and typically mine limestone, gravel, granite and sand which are used in road construction and other public works projects. The investment consisted of $8,500,000 in common units and incentive distribution rights, and a $3,750,000 participation investment in a secured credit facility. We also invested $7,500,015 in a newly formed private partnership, Abraxas Energy Partners, L.P. Abraxas Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: ABP) formed Abraxas Energy Partners, L.P. and has contributed long-lived, low decline natural gas and oil reserves located in the Delaware and Gulf Coast Basins of Texas.

Additionally, in May 2007, we completed two follow on investments. We exercised our option to purchase a 3 percent interest in High Sierra Energy GP, L.L.C., the general partner of High Sierra Energy, L.P., at an exercise price of $2,250,000 and we invested an additional $1,000,000 in Mowood, L.L.C. to fund the expansion of its newest subsidiary, Timberline Energy, L.L.C. Timberline Energy, L.L.C. is a developer and operator of landfill methane gas collection systems.

As of May 31, 2007, the value of our investment portfolio (excluding short-term investments) totaled $102,841,396, including equity investments of $94,041,396 and debt investments of $8,800,000, and was invested as follows:

Midstream	66	%
Upstream	15	%
Other	12	%
Downstream	7	%
Total	100	%

We monitor each portfolio company to determine progress relative to meeting the company’s business plan and to assess the appropriate strategic and tactical courses of action for the company. This monitoring may be accomplished by attendance at Board of Directors meetings, the review of periodic operating reports and financial reports, an analysis of relevant reserve information and capital expenditure plans, and periodic consultations with engineers, geologists, and other experts. The performance of each portfolio company is also periodically compared to performance of similarly sized companies with comparable assets and businesses to assess performance relative to peers. Our Adviser’s monitoring activities are expected to provide it with the necessary access to monitor compliance with existing covenants, to enhance our ability to make qualified valuation decisions, and to assist our evaluation of the nature of the risks involved in each individual investment. In addition, these monitoring activities should permit our Adviser to diagnose and manage the common risk factors held by our total portfolio, such as sector concentration, exposure to a single financial sponsor, or sensitivity to a particular geography.

As part of the monitoring process, our Adviser continually assesses the risk profile of each of our investments and rates them on a scale of 1 to 3 based on the following categories:

(1) The portfolio company is performing at or above expectations and the trends and risk factors are generally favorable to neutral.

(2) The portfolio company is performing below expectations and the investment’s risk has increased materially since origination. The portfolio company is generally out of compliance with various covenants; however, payments are generally not more than 120 days past due.

(3) The portfolio company is performing materially below expectations and the investment risk has substantially increased since origination. Most or all of the covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Investment is not expected to provide a full repayment of the amount invested.

As of May 31, 2007, all of our portfolio companies have a rating of (1), with the exception of one which has a rating of (2).

Results of Operations

Set forth are the results of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through May 31, 2006.

Investment Income: Investment income totaled $545,856 and $937,491 for the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2007, respectively, compared to $347,496 and $751,001 for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 through May 31, 2006, respectively. Investment income for the three-month period ended May 31, 2007 consisted of $1,425,467 in gross distributions from investments, including $1,484,141 characterized as return of capital (which includes $314,000 related to the reclassification of investment income and return of capital based on the 2006 tax reporting information received from our portfolio companies), and $604,530 in dividends from money market mutual funds and interest income from debt investments. Investment income for the six-month period ended May 31, 2007 consisted of $2,029,154 in gross distributions from investments, including $1,964,198 characterized as return of capital, and $872,535 in dividends from money market mutual funds and interest income from debt investments. Investment income for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 through May 31, 2006 consisted only of dividends from money market mutual funds. The increase in investment income for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through May 31, 2006, respectively, is directly related to an increase in the number of investments in our portfolio and the distributions received from these investments. The weighted average yield on our investment portfolio (excluding short-term investments) as of May 31, 2007 was 8.8 percent, as compared to 7.8 percent at May 31, 2006.

Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses totaled $1,684,846 and $3,785,765 for the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2007, respectively, compared to $251,297 and $486,018 for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 through May 31, 2006, respectively. Total operating expenses for the three-month period ended May 31, 2007 consisted of $468,012 in management fees, $1,008,867 in capital gain incentive fees, and $247,084 in other operating expenses, less $39,117 related to a reduction of issuance costs on previously outstanding Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock. For the six-month period ended May 31, 2007, total operating expenses consisted of $848,079 in management fees, $1,496,494 in capital gain incentive fees, $731,713 in redemption premium and issuance costs on previously outstanding Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock, $346,460 in interest expense on our line of credit and preferred dividends, and $363,019 in other operating expenses. Total operating expenses for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006 consisted of $169,367 in management fees and $81,930 in other operating expenses and for the period from December 8, 2005 through May 31, 2006 consisted of $306,163 in management fees, and $179,855 in other operating expenses. The increase in expenses for the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2006 and the period from December 8, 2005 (Commencement of Operations) through May 31, 2006, respectively, generally relate to capital gain incentive fees and the redemption premium and issuance costs on previously outstanding Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock, which was utilized as bridge financing to fund portfolio investments and was fully redeemed upon completion of the initial public offering. The provision for capital gains incentive fees resulted from the increase in fair value and unrealized appreciation on investments. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the capital gains incentive fee is paid annually only if there are realization events and only if the calculation defined in the agreement results in an amount due.

Distributable Cash Flow: Our portfolio generates cash flow to us from which we pay dividends to stockholders. When our Board of Directors determines the amount of any distribution we expect to pay our stockholders, it will review distributable cash flow (“DCF”). DCF is simply distributions received from investments less our total expenses. The total distributions received from our investments include the amount received by us as cash distributions from equity investments, paid-in-kind distributions, and dividend and interest payments. The total expenses include current or anticipated operating expenses, leverage costs and current income taxes on our operating income. Total expenses do not include deferred income taxes or accrued capital gain incentive fees.

We disclose DCF in order to provide supplemental information regarding our results of operations and to enhance our investors’ overall understanding of our core financial performance and our prospects for the future. We believe that our investors benefit from seeing the results of DCF in addition to GAAP information. This non-GAAP information facilitates management’s comparison of current results with historical results of operations and with those of our peers. This information is not in accordance with, or

an alternative to, GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The following table represents DCF for the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2007. DCF comparisons to the same periods last year are not meaningful as we did not pay our first dividend until the third quarter of 2006.

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses): For the three-month period ended May 31, 2007, we had net unrealized gains of $4,169,982 after a deferred tax expense of $2,555,796. For the six-month period ended May 31, 2007, we had net unrealized gains of $5,981,617 after a deferred tax expense of $3,666,151. There were no net unrealized gains or losses for the three months ended May 31, 2006 or for the period from December 8, 2005 through May 31, 2006. The increase in unrealized gains as compared to last year is a result of the increased number of portfolio investments and the length of maturity of these investments. For the three-month period ended May 31, 2007 and the six-month period ended May 31, 2007, we recognized realized gains of $8,501 after a deferred tax expense of $5,211. The recognition of realized gains was not the result of a sale during these periods, but was related to a reclassification of the amount of investment income and return of capital we recognized based on the 2006 tax reporting information received from the individual MLPs resulting in an adjustment to realized gains.

Recent Developments

On June 1, 2007, we paid a dividend in the amount of $0.16 per share, for a total of $1,414,035. Of this total, the dividend reinvestment amounted to $42,537.

On June 1, 2007, we invested $7,499,990 in common units in a private placement of EV Energy Partners, L.P., a master limited partnership engaged in acquiring, producing and developing oil and gas properties. EV Energy Partners, L.P. stated that it plans to use the proceeds of the private placement to repay all of its borrowings under its revolving credit facility which were used to finance a previously completed acquisition of Monroe field properties in Louisiana. In addition, proceeds will fund a portion of its $100,000,000 acquisition of oil and natural gas properties in Central and East Texas.

On June 12, 2007, we invested $10,000,000 in International Resource Partners, L.P, a newly formed private partnership. International Resource Partners, L.P. acquired International Resources, L.L.C., the coal subsidiary of International Industries, Inc. The company’s initial acquisition of surface and underground coal mine operations in southern West Virginia is comprised of metallurgical and steam coal reserves, a coal washing and preparation plant, rail load-out facilities and a sales and marketing subsidiary.

On June 15, 2007, we completed another follow-on investment, purchasing $10,000,011 in common units of High Sierra Energy, L.P. The company indicated that it plans to use the proceeds to support its continued expansion.

On June 29, 2007, we completed an additional $2,000,000 follow-on debt investment in Mowood, L.L.C.

Subsequent to these investments, the current weighted average yield on our investment portfolio (excluding short-term investments) is 8.6 percent.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On February 7, 2007, we completed our initial public offering of 5,740,000 shares of common stock at $15.00 per share for gross proceeds of $86,100,000. After underwriting discount and offering expenses, we received net proceeds of $79,222,426. Upon completion of the offering, we redeemed all of the Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock at $15.00 per share plus a 2 percent premium, for a total redemption price of $18,870,000. After attributing $283,059 in value to the warrants, the redemption premium of $370,000 and $78,654 in issuance costs, we recognized a loss on redemption of the preferred shares of $731,713. In addition, accrued dividends in the amount of $228,750 were paid to the preferred stockholders. We have used approximately $12,600,000 of the net proceeds to repay the amount outstanding under the credit facility, and approximately $23,000,000 of the net proceeds to fund additional investments in new and existing portfolio companies this fiscal quarter. The remaining net proceeds of the offering have been used to purchase short-term, temporary investments. During the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2007, 9,125 warrants were exercised at $15.00 per common share, for proceeds of $136,875.

We expect to raise additional capital to support our future growth through equity offerings, issuances of senior securities or future borrowings to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and our current credit facility. We generally may not issue additional common shares at a price below our net asset value (net of any sales load (underwriting discount) without first obtaining approval of our stockholders and Board of Directors. Our stockholders granted us the authority to sell our common shares below net asset value, subject to certain conditions, through December 20, 2007. We are restricted in our ability to incur additional debt by the terms of our credit facility.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual obligations during the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2007.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Other than the investment advisory agreement and the administration agreement with our Adviser, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangement that has or is reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Borrowings

On April 23, 2007, we replaced our previous credit facility with a new secured committed credit facility with U.S. Bank, N.A. as a lender, agent and lead arranger, and Bank of Oklahoma, N.A. The new credit facility matures on March 21, 2008 and provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $20,000,000 that can be increased to $40,000,000 if certain conditions are met. The revolving credit facility has a variable annual interest rate equal to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.75 percent, a non-usage fee equal to an annual rate of 0.375 percent of the difference between the total credit facility commitment and the average outstanding balance at the end of each day for the preceding fiscal quarter, and is secured by all assets of the Company. The non-usage fee is not applicable during a defined 120 day “resting period” following the initial public offering. As of May 31, 2007, there was no outstanding principal balance under the credit facility.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial statements included in this report are based on the selection and application of critical accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, complex or subjective judgments. While our critical accounting policies are discussed below, Note 2 in the notes to our financial statements included in this report provides more detailed disclosure of all of our significant accounting policies.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

We invest primarily in illiquid securities that generally are subject to restrictions on resale, have no established trading market and are valued at fair value on a quarterly basis. Fair value is intended to be the amount for which an investment could be exchanged in an orderly disposition over a reasonable period of time between willing parties other than in a forced liquidation or sale. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, the fair values of such investments, which are determined in accordance with procedures approved by our Board of Directors, may differ materially from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for the investments.

Interest and Fee Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. When investing in instruments with an original issue discount or payment-in-kind interest, we accrue interest income during the life of the investment, even though we will not necessarily be receiving cash as the interest is accrued. Commitment and facility fees generally are recognized as income over the life of the underlying loan, whereas due diligence, structuring, transaction service, consulting and management service fees for services rendered to portfolio companies generally are recognized as income when services are rendered.

Security Transactions and Investment Income Recognition

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses are reported on an identified cost basis. Distributions received from our equity investments generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital from the portfolio company. We record investment income and returns of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on information available from each portfolio company and/or other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from the portfolio companies after their tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions are not known until after our fiscal year-end.

Federal and State Income Taxation

We, as a corporation, are obligated to pay federal and state income tax on our taxable income. Our tax expense or benefit is included in the Statement of Operations based on the component of income or gains (losses) to which such expense or benefit relates. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Our business activities contain elements of market risk. We consider changes in interest rates and the effect such changes can have on the valuations of the distribution-paying equity securities and debt securities we hold and the cost of capital under our credit facility to be our principal market risk.

Interest rate risk primarily results from variable rate securities in which we invest. Debt investments in our portfolio are based on floating and fixed rates. Loans bearing a floating interest rate are usually based on LIBOR and, in most cases, a spread consisting of additional basis points. The interest rates for these debt instruments typically have one to six-month durations and reset at the current market interest rates. As of May 31, 2007, our floating rate debt investments totaled $3,750,000 (43 percent) of our total debt investments of $8,800,000. Based on a sensitivity analysis of the variable rate financial obligations in our portfolio at May 31, 2007, we estimate that a one percentage point interest rate movement in the average market interest rates (either higher or lower) over the ten days the obligations were outstanding during the period ended May 31, 2007 would either increase or decrease net investment income by approximately $1,000.

We carry our investments at fair value, as determined by our Board of Directors. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations. Securities that are not publicly traded or whose market price is not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. Because there is not a readily available market value for most of the investments in our portfolio, we value substantially all of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our board under a valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments, and these differences could be material. As of May 31, 2007, the value of our long-term equity investments totaled $94,041,396. The impact of a 10% change in fair value of these investments (either higher or lower), net of deferred tax and capital gain incentive fees, would increase or decrease net assets applicable to common stockholders by approximately $4,400,000.

We consider the management of risk essential to conducting our businesses. Accordingly, our risk management systems and procedures are designed to identify and analyze our risks, to set appropriate policies and limits and to continually monitor these risks and limits by means of reliable administrative and information systems and other policies and programs.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the fiscal quarter ended May 31 2007, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceeding, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Risks Related to Our Operations

We are a new company with limited operating history.

We were incorporated in Maryland on September 8, 2005. We are subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business, including the risk that we will not achieve our investment objective and that the value of an investment in our common shares could decline substantially.

Our Adviser has a limited operating history and will serve as investment adviser to other funds, which may create conflicts of interest not in the best interest of us or our stockholders.

Our Advisor was formed in October 2002 and has been managing investments in portfolios of MLPs and other issuers in the energy sector since that time. From time to time, the Adviser may pursue areas of investments in which the Adviser has more limited experience.

Our Adviser serves as investment adviser to three other publicly traded closed-end management investment companies. We rely on some of the same personnel and will use the same investment committee as those entities. Our Adviser’s services under our investment advisory agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish the same or similar services to other entities, including businesses that may directly or indirectly compete with us so long as its services to us are not impaired by the provision of such services to others. In addition, the publicly traded funds and private accounts managed by our Adviser may make investments similar to investments that we may pursue, although these entities generally target investments in publicly traded companies with market capitalizations in excess of $250 million, while we generally target investments in companies that are privately-held or have market capitalizations of less than $250 million, and that are earlier in their stage of development. This may change in the future, however. Accordingly, our Adviser and the members of its investment committee may have obligations to other investors, the fulfillment of which might not be in the best interests of us or our stockholders, and it is possible that our Adviser might allocate investment opportunities to other entities, and thus might divert attractive investment opportunities away from us. However, our Adviser intends to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with our investment objective and strategies, and in accordance with written allocation policies and procedures of our Adviser, so that we will not be disadvantaged in relation to any other client.

We are dependent upon our Adviser’s key personnel for our future success.

We depend on the diligence, expertise and business relationships of the senior management of our Adviser. The Adviser’s senior investment professionals and senior management will evaluate, negotiate, structure, close and monitor our investments. Our future success will depend on the continued service of the senior management team of our Adviser. The departure of one or more senior investment professionals of our Adviser, and particularly Terry Matlack, Abel Mojica III, Ed Russell or David Schulte, could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our investment objective and on the value of our common shares and warrants. We will rely on certain employees of the Adviser, especially Messrs. Matlack, and Schulte, who will be devoting significant amounts of their time to non-Company related activities of the Adviser. To the extent Messrs. Matlack or Schulte and other employees of the Adviser who are not committed exclusively to us are unable to, or do not, devote sufficient amounts of their time and energy to our affairs, our performance may suffer.

The incentive fee payable to our Adviser may create conflicting incentives.

The incentive fee payable by us to our Adviser may create an incentive for our Adviser to make investments on our behalf that are riskier or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such a compensation arrangement. Because a portion of the incentive fee payable to our Adviser is calculated as a percentage of the amount of our net investment income that exceeds a hurdle rate, our Adviser may imprudently use leverage to increase the return on our investments. Under some circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor the holders of our common shares. In addition, our Adviser will receive an incentive fee based, in part, upon net realized capital gains on our investments. Unlike the portion of the incentive fee based on net investment income, there is no hurdle rate applicable to the portion of the incentive fee based on net capital gains. As a result, our Adviser may have an incentive to pursue investments that are likely to result in capital gains as compared to income producing securities. Such a practice could result in our investing in more speculative or long term securities than would otherwise be the case, which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during economic downturns or longer return cycles.

We may be required to pay an incentive fee even in a fiscal quarter in which we have incurred a loss. For example, if we have pre-incentive fee net investment income above the hurdle rate and realized capital losses, we will be required to pay the investment income portion of the incentive fee.

The investment income portion of the incentive fee payable by us will be computed and paid on income that may include interest that has been accrued but not yet received in cash, and the collection of which is uncertain or deferred. If a portfolio company defaults on a loan that is structured to provide accrued interest, it is possible that accrued interest previously used in the calculation of the investment income portion of the incentive fee will become uncollectible. Our Adviser will not be required to reimburse us for any such incentive fee payments.

Our Adviser has limited experience in managing a business development company.

Our Adviser has limited experience in establishing, managing or serving as investment advisor to a BDC. Additionally, the time required to maintain a BDC could distract our Advisor from its other duties.

If we distribute substantially all of our income to our stockholders, we will continue to need additional capital to finance our growth. If additional funds are unavailable or not available on favorable terms, our ability to grow and execute our business plan will be impaired.

Our business will require a substantial amount of capital if we distribute substantially all of our income to our stockholders and we are to grow. We may acquire additional capital from the issuance of securities senior to our common shares, including additional borrowings or other indebtedness or the issuance of additional securities. We may also acquire additional capital through the issuance of additional equity. However, we may not be able to raise additional capital in the future on favorable terms or at all. Our new credit facility contains a covenant precluding us from incurring additional debt. We may issue debt securities, other instruments of indebtedness or preferred stock, and we intend to borrow money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer to collectively as “senior securities,” up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. The 1940 Act permits us to issue senior securities in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200 percent after each issuance of senior securities. Our ability to pay distributions or issue additional senior securities is restricted if our asset coverage ratio is not at least 200 percent, or put another way, the value of our assets (less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) must be at least twice that of any outstanding senior securities representing indebtedness (plus the aggregate involuntary liquidation preference of any preferred stock). If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy this test. If that happens, we may be required to liquidate a portion of our investments and repay a portion of our indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous. As a result of issuing senior securities, we will also be exposed to typical risks associated with leverage, including increased risk of loss. If we issue preferred securities which will rank “senior” to our common shares in our capital structure, the holders of such preferred securities may have separate voting rights and other rights, preferences or privileges more favorable than those of our common shares, and the issuance of such preferred securities could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for security holders or otherwise be in our best interest.

To the extent our ability to issue debt or other senior securities is constrained, we will depend on issuances of additional common shares to finance our operations. As a BDC, we generally will not be able to issue additional common shares at a price below net asset value (net of any sales load (underwriting discount)) without first obtaining required approvals of our stockholders and our independent directors which could constrain our ability to issue additional equity. Our stockholders granted us the authority to sell our common shares below net asset value, subject to certain conditions. This authority extends through December 20, 2007. If we raise additional funds by issuing more of our common shares or senior securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common shares, the percentage ownership of our stockholders at that time would decrease, and you may experience dilution.

As a BDC, we are subject to limitations on our ability to engage in certain transactions with affiliates.

As a BDC, we are prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our independent directors or the SEC. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5 percent or more of our outstanding voting securities is our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act and we are generally prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such affiliate, absent the prior approval of our independent directors. The 1940 Act also prohibits “joint” transactions with an affiliate, which could include investments in the same portfolio company (whether at the same or different times), without prior approval of our independent directors. If a person acquires more than 25 percent of our voting securities, we will be prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such person, or entering into joint transactions with such person, absent the prior approval of the SEC. Our Adviser has previously applied to the SEC for exemptive relief to permit other clients of our Adviser, including us, to co-invest in negotiated private placements of securities. Unless and until such an exemptive order is obtained, we will not co-invest with affiliates in negotiated private placement transactions.

If our investments are deemed not to be qualifying assets, we could lose our status as a business development company or be precluded from investing according to our current business plan.

As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such acquisition, at least 70 percent of our total assets are qualifying assets. If our investments are deemed not to be qualifying assets, our status as a BDC may be jeopardized or we may be precluded from investing in the manner intended, either of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We also may be required to dispose of investments, which could have a material adverse effect on us and our stockholders, because even if we were successful in finding a buyer, we may have difficulty in finding a buyer to purchase such investments on favorable terms or in a sufficient time frame.

We may choose to invest a portion of our portfolio in investments that may be considered highly speculative and that could negatively impact our ability to pay distributions and cause you to lose part of your investment.

The 1940 Act permits a BDC to invest up to 30 percent of its assets in investments that do not meet the test for “qualifying assets.” Such investments may be made by us with the expectation of achieving a higher rate of return or increased cash flow with a portion of our portfolio and may fall outside of our targeted investment criteria. These investments may be made even though they may expose us to greater risks than our other investments and may consequently expose our portfolio to more significant losses than may arise from our other investments. We may invest up to 30 percent of our total assets in assets that are non qualifying assets in among other things, high yield bonds, bridge loans, distressed debt, commercial loans, private equity, and securities of public companies or secondary market purchases of securities of target portfolio companies. Such investments could impact negatively our ability to pay you distributions and cause you to lose part of your investment.

Our debt increases the risk of investing in us.

On April 23, 2007, we entered into a new credit facility. The new credit facility replaces our previous revolving credit facility and provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $20,000,000 that can be increased to $40,000,000 if certain conditions are met. Our new credit facility precludes us from incurring additional debt and we may face liquidity constraints as a result. We may in the future incur incremental debt to increase our ability to make investments. Lenders from whom we may borrow money or holders of our debt securities will have fixed dollar claims on our assets that are superior to the claims of our stockholders, and we have and may grant a security interest in our assets in connection with our debt. In the case of a liquidation event, those lenders or note holders would receive proceeds before our stockholders. In addition, debt, also known as leverage, magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and, therefore, increases the risks associated with investing in our securities. Leverage is generally considered a speculative investment technique and the costs of any leverage transactions will be borne by our stockholders. In addition, because the base management fees we pay to our Adviser are based on managed assets (which include any assets purchased with borrowed funds) our Adviser may imprudently borrow funds in an attempt to increase our managed assets in conflict with our or our stockholders’ best interests. If the value of our assets increases, then leveraging would cause the net asset value attributable to our common shares to increase more than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged. Conversely, if the value of our assets decreases, leveraging would cause the net asset value attributable to our common shares to decline more than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged. Similarly, any increase in our revenue in excess of interest expense on our borrowed funds would cause our net income to increase more than it would without the leverage. Any decrease in our revenue would cause our net income to decline more than it would have had we not borrowed funds and could negatively affect our ability to make distributions on our common shares. Our ability to service any debt that we incur will depend largely on our financial performance and the performance of our portfolio companies and will be subject to prevailing economic conditions and competitive pressures.

We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities.

We compete with public and private funds, commercial and investment banks and commercial financing companies to make the types of investments that we plan to make in the U.S. energy infrastructure sector. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than us. For example, some competitors may have a lower cost of funds and access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, allowing them to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more relationships than us. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC.

Our quarterly results may fluctuate.

We could experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a number of factors, including the return on our equity investments, the interest rates payable on our debt investments, the default rates on such investments, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

Our portfolio may be concentrated in a limited number of portfolio companies.

We currently have investments in a limited number of portfolio companies. One or two of our portfolio companies may constitute a significant percentage of our total portfolio. An inherent risk associated with this investment concentration is that we may be adversely affected if one or two of our investments perform poorly or if we need to write down the value of any one investment. Financial difficulty on the part of any single portfolio company will expose us to a greater risk of loss than would be the case if we were a “diversified” company holding numerous investments.

Our anticipated investments in privately-held companies present certain challenges, including the lack of available information about these companies and a greater inability to liquidate our investments in an advantageous manner.

We primarily make investments in privately-held companies. Generally, little public information exists about these companies, and we will be required to rely on the ability of our Adviser to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential risks and returns involved in investing in these companies. If our Adviser is unable to obtain all material information about these companies, including with respect to operational, regulatory, environmental, litigation and managerial risks, our Adviser may not make a fully-informed investment decision, and we may lose some or all of the money invested in these companies. In addition, our Adviser may inappropriately value the prospects of an investment, causing us to overpay for such investment and fail to receive the expected or projected return on the investment. Substantially all of these securities will be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or will otherwise be less liquid than publicly traded securities. The illiquidity of these investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments at advantageous times and prices or in a timely manner. In addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we previously have recorded our investments. We also may face other restrictions on our ability to liquidate an investment in a portfolio company to the extent that we or one of our affiliates have material non-public information regarding such portfolio company.

Most of our portfolio investments are and will continue to be recorded at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. As a result, there is and will continue to be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments.

Most of our investments are and will be in the form of securities or loans that are not publicly traded. The fair value of these investments may not be readily determinable. We will value these investments quarterly at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has retained Duff & Phelps, L.L.C., an independent valuation firm, to provide valuation assistance to the Board of Directors, if they so request, in connection with assessing whether the fair value determinations made by the investment committee of our Adviser are unreasonable. The types of factors that may be considered in fair value pricing of an investment include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s earnings and ability to make payments, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow and other relevant factors. Because such valuations are inherently uncertain, our determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these securities existed. As a result, we may not be able to dispose of our holdings at a price equal to or greater than the determined fair value, which could have a negative impact on our net asset value.

Our equity investments may decline in value.

The equity securities in which we invest may not appreciate or may decline in value. We may thus not be able to realize gains from our equity securities, and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity securities may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience. As a result, the equity securities in which we invest may decline in value, which may negatively impact our ability to pay distributions and cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

Unrealized decreases in the value of debt investments in our portfolio may impact the value of our common shares and may reduce our income for distribution.

As a BDC, we are required to carry our investments at market value or, if no market value is ascertainable, at the fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. Decreases in the market values or fair values of our debt investments will be recorded as unrealized depreciation. Any unrealized depreciation in our investment portfolio could be an indication of a portfolio company’s inability to meet its obligations to us with respect to the loans whose market values or fair values decreased. This could result in realized losses in the future and ultimately in reductions of our income available for distribution in future periods.

When we are a minority equity or a debt investor in a portfolio company, we may not be in a position to control that portfolio company.

When we make minority equity investments or invest in debt, we will be subject to the risk that a portfolio company may make business decisions with which we may disagree, and that the stockholders and management of such company may take risks or otherwise act in ways that do not serve our interests. As a result, a portfolio company may make decisions that could decrease the value of our investments.

Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, our investments in such companies.

Portfolio companies in which we invest usually will have, or may be permitted to incur, debt that ranks senior to, or equally with, our investments, including debt investments. As a result, payments on such securities may have to be made before we receive any payments on our investments. For example, these debt instruments may provide that the holders are entitled to receive payment of interest or principal on or before the dates on which we are entitled to receive payments with respect to our investments. These debt instruments will usually prohibit the portfolio companies from paying interest on or repaying our investments in the event and during the continuance of a default under such debt. In the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company, holders of debt instruments ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before we receive any distribution in respect of our investment. After repaying its senior creditors, a portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use to repay its obligation to us or provide a full or even partial return of capital on an equity investment made by us. In the case of debt ranking equally with our investments, we would have to share on an equal basis any distributions with other creditors holding such debt in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of the relevant portfolio company.

If our investments do not meet our performance expectations, you may not receive distributions.

We intend to make distributions on a quarterly basis to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. Also, restrictions and provisions in any future credit facilities and debt securities may limit our ability to make distributions. We cannot assure you that you will receive distributions at a particular level or at all.

The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business, and if we need to sell any of our investments, we may not be able to do so at a favorable price. As a result, we may suffer losses.

We generally expect to invest in the equity of companies whose securities are not publicly traded, and whose securities will be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or will otherwise be less liquid than publicly-traded securities. We also expect to invest in debt securities with terms of five to ten years and hold such investments until maturity. The illiquidity of these investments may make it difficult for us to sell these investments when desired. In addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we had previously recorded these investments. As a result, we do not expect to achieve liquidity in our investments in the near-term. However, to maintain our status as a BDC, we may have to dispose of investments if we do not satisfy one or more of the applicable criteria under the regulatory framework. Our investments are usually subject to contractual or legal restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid because there is usually no established trading market for such investments. The illiquidity of most of our investments may make it difficult for us to dispose of them at a favorable price, and, as a result, we may suffer losses.

We will be exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates.

Equity securities may be particularly sensitive to rising interest rates, which generally increase borrowing costs and the cost of capital and may reduce the ability of portfolio companies in which we own equity securities to both execute acquisitions or expansion projects in a cost-effective manner or provide us liquidity by completing an initial public offering or completing a sale. Fluctuations in interest rates will also impact any debt investments we make. Changes in interest rates may also negatively impact the costs of our outstanding borrowings, if any.

We may not have the funds to make additional investments in our portfolio companies.

After our initial investment in a portfolio company, we may be called upon from time to time to provide additional funds to such company or have the opportunity to increase our investment through the exercise of a warrant to purchase common stock. There is no assurance that we will make, or will have sufficient funds to make, follow-on investments. Any decisions not to make a follow-on investment or any inability on our part to make such an investment may have a negative impact on a portfolio company in need of such an investment, may result in a missed opportunity for us to increase our participation in a successful operation or may reduce the expected yield on the investment.

Changes in laws or regulations or in the interpretations of laws or regulations could significantly affect our operations and cost of doing business.

We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations and are subject to judicial and administrative decisions that affect our operations, including loan originations, maximum interest rates, fees and other

charges, disclosures to portfolio companies, the terms of secured transactions, collection and foreclosure procedures and other trade practices. If these laws, regulations or decisions change, we may have to incur significant expenses in order to comply, or we may have to restrict our operations. In addition, if we do not comply with applicable laws, regulations and decisions, or fail to obtain licenses that may become necessary for the conduct of our business; we may be subject to civil fines and criminal penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be adequate, and our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify as to their adequacy, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation.

We are evaluating our internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to design enhanced processes and controls to address any issues that might be identified. As a result, we expect to incur significant additional expenses in the near term, which will negatively impact our financial performance and our ability to make distributions. This process will also result in a diversion of management’s time and attention. We cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and remediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations and may not be able to ensure that the process is effective or that the internal controls are, or will be, effective in a timely manner. Beginning with our annual report for our fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, our management will be required to report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules and regulation sof the SEC thereunder. We will be required to review on an annual basis our internal controls over financial reporting, and to disclose on a quarterly basis changes that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. There can be no assurance that our quarterly reviews will not identify material weaknesses.

Risks Related to an Investment in the U.S. Energy Infrastructure Sector

Our portfolio is and will continue to be concentrated in the energy infrastructure sector, which will subject us to more risks than if we were broadly diversified.

We invest primarily in privately-held and micro-cap public energy companies. Because we are specifically focused on the energy infrastructure sector, investments in our common shares may present more risks than if we were broadly diversified over numerous sectors of the economy. Therefore, a downturn in the U.S. energy infrastructure sector would have a larger impact on us than on an investment company that does not concentrate in one sector of the economy. The energy infrastructure sector can be significantly affected by the supply of and demand for specific products and services; the supply and demand for crude oil, natural gas, and other energy commodities; the price of crude oil, natural gas, and other energy commodities; exploration, production and other capital expenditures; government regulation; world and regional events and economic conditions. At times, the performance of securities of companies in the energy infrastructure sector may lag the performance of securities of companies in other sectors or the broader market as a whole.

The portfolio companies in which we invest are subject to variations in the supply and demand of various energy commodities.

A decrease in the production of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, coal, refined petroleum products or other energy commodities, or a decrease in the volume of such commodities available for transportation, mining, processing, storage or distribution, may adversely impact the financial performance of companies in the energy infrastructure sector. Production declines and volume decreases could be caused by various factors, including catastrophic events affecting production, depletion of resources, labor difficulties, political events, OPEC actions, environmental proceedings, increased regulations, equipment failures and unexpected maintenance problems, failure to obtain necessary permits, unscheduled outages, unanticipated expenses, inability to successfully carry out new construction or acquisitions, import supply disruption, increased competition from alternative energy sources or related commodity prices. Alternatively, a sustained decline in demand for such commodities could also adversely affect the financial performance of companies in the energy infrastructure sector. Factors that could lead to a decline in demand include economic recession or other adverse economic conditions, higher fuel taxes or governmental regulations, increases in fuel economy, consumer shifts to the use of alternative fuel sources, changes in commodity prices or weather.

Many companies in the energy infrastructure sector are subject to the risk that they, or their customers, will be unable to replace depleted reserves of energy commodities.

Many companies in the energy infrastructure sector are either engaged in the production of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, refined petroleum products or coal, or are engaged in transporting, storing, distributing and processing these items on behalf of producers. To maintain or grow their revenues, many customers of these companies need to maintain or expand their reserves through exploration of new sources

of supply, through the development of existing sources, through acquisitions, or through long-term contracts to acquire reserves. The financial performance of companies in the energy infrastructure sector may be adversely affected if the companies to which they provide service are unable to cost-effectively acquire additional reserves sufficient to replace the natural decline.

Our portfolio companies are and will be subject to extensive regulation because of their participation in the energy infrastructure sector.

Companies in the energy infrastructure sector are subject to significant federal, state and local government regulation in virtually every aspect of their operations, including how facilities are constructed, maintained and operated, environmental and safety controls, and the prices they may charge for the products and services they provide. Various governmental authorities have the power to enforce compliance with these regulations and the permits issued under them, and violators are subject to administrative, civil and criminal penalties, including civil fines, injunctions or both. Stricter laws, regulations or enforcement policies could be enacted in the future that likely would increase compliance costs and may adversely affect the financial performance of companies in the energy infrastructure sector and the value of our investments in those companies.

Our portfolio companies are and will be subject to the risk of fluctuations in commodity prices.

The operations and financial performance of companies in the energy infrastructure sector may be directly affected by energy commodity prices, especially those companies in the energy infrastructure sector owning the underlying energy commodity. Commodity prices fluctuate for several reasons, including changes in market and economic conditions, the impact of weather on demand or supply, levels of domestic production and imported commodities, energy conservation, domestic and foreign governmental regulation and taxation and the availability of local, intrastate and interstate transportation systems. Volatility of commodity prices, which may lead to a reduction in production or supply, may also negatively impact the performance of companies in the energy infrastructure sector that are solely involved in the transportation, processing, storing, distribution or marketing of commodities. Volatility of commodity prices may also make it more difficult for companies in the energy infrastructure sector to raise capital to the extent the market perceives that their performance may be tied directly or indirectly to commodity prices. Historically, energy commodity prices have been cyclical and exhibited significant volatility.

Our portfolio companies are and will be subject to the risk of extreme weather patterns.

Extreme weather patterns, such as Hurricane Ivan in 2004 and Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005 could result in significant volatility in the supply of energy and power. This volatility may create fluctuations in commodity prices and earnings of companies in the energy infrastructure sector. Moreover, any extreme weather patterns, such as Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, could adversely impact the assets and valuation of our portfolio companies.

Acts of terrorism may adversely affect us.

The value of our common shares, warrants, and our investments could be significantly and negatively impacted as a result of terrorist activities, such as the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001; war, such as the war in Iraq and its aftermath; and other geopolitical events, including upheaval in the Middle East or other energy producing regions. The U.S. government has issued warnings that energy assets, specifically those related to pipeline infrastructure, production facilities and transmission and distribution facilities, might be specific targets of terrorist activity. Such events have led, and in the future may lead, to short-term market volatility and may have long-term effects on the U.S. economy and markets. Such events may also adversely affect our business and financial condition.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

On February 1, 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective our Registration Statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-136923) for the initial public offering of 5,740,000 of our common shares at a price of $15.00 per share. We commenced our offering immediately thereafter. On February 7, 2007, we completed the sale of 5,740,000 shares of common stock at a price of $15.00 per share. Merrill

Lynch & Co. acted as the book running manager. Stifel Nicolaus, Wachovia Securities, Oppenheimer & Co. and Ferris, Baker Watts Incorporated acted as co-managers.

The gross proceeds of the offering were $86,100,000 and we received net proceeds from the offering (after deducting offering expenses of $850,574 and the sales load of $6,027,000) of $79,222,426. Our total offering expenses consisted of legal, accounting, printing and miscellaneous expenses. No payments for such expenses were made directly or indirectly to (i) any of our directors, officers or their associates, (ii) any person owning 10 percent or more of any class of our equity securities, or (iii) any of our affiliates.

We used $19,098,750 of the net proceeds of the offering to pay dividends on, and redeem all of our previously outstanding Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock and $12,600,000 of the net proceeds of the offering to repay the outstanding balance of our credit facility. We used $23,000,000 of the net proceeds to fund additional long-term investments in new and existing portfolio companies this fiscal quarter. The remaining net proceeds of the offering have been used to purchase short-term, temporary investments.

On May 11, 2007, we filed a resale registration statement covering securities issued in private placements prior to the company’s initial public offering. The securities registered for resale are the common stock and warrants issued in September 2005 in our seed round, the common stock and warrants issued in December 2005 and January 2006 in our initial private placement, the warrants issued in December 2006, and the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. We will not receive any proceeds from the securities registered for resale, other than cash consideration in connection with the exercise of the warrants. During the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2007, 9,125 warrants were exercised at $15.00 per common share, for proceeds of $136,875.

We did not repurchase any of our common shares during the period from our initial public offering through May 31, 2007.
