Investors should consult with their financial advisor about the suitability of Carlyle Secured Lending Fund in their portfolio.

Investing in Carlyle Secured Lending Fund involves a high degree of risk, including the risk that you may receive little or no return on your investment or that you may lose part or all of your investment. This is a non-diversified closed-end fund. Shares of Carlyle Secured Lending Fund’s common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value (NAV), which may increase investors’ risk of loss. Carlyle Secured Lending Fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade at, below or above NAV.

There is no assurance that Carlyle Secured Lending Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved or that monthly distributions paid by Carlyle Secured Lending Fund will be maintained at the targeted level or that dividends will be paid at all. Carlyle Secured Lending Fund’s distributions may be funded from unlimited amounts of offering proceeds or borrowings, which may constitute a return of capital and reduce the amount of capital available to Carlyle Secured Lending Fund for investment. A return of capital to shareholders is a return of a portion of their original investment in Carlyle Secured Lending Fund, thereby reducing the tax basis of their investment.
