1 The Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in securities acquired directly from issuers in privately negotiated transactions subject to an initial ramp up period.

2 The Fund expects to pay regular monthly distributions, which are expected to commence in the third quarter of 2022. Any distributions we make will be at the discretion of our Board of Trustees, considering factors such as our earnings, cash flow, capital needs and general financial condition and the requirements of Delaware law. As a result, our distribution rates and payment frequency may vary from time to time. Distribution payments are not guaranteed, and BlackRock Private Credit Fund may pay distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital or offering proceeds, and advances or the deferral of fees and expense reimbursements, and has no limits on such amounts it may pay from such sources.

3 The Fund commenced operations on 06/01/22. It is expected that, beginning in the second quarter of 2023, the Fund will offer to repurchase Shares (through written tender offers) on a quarterly basis of up to 5% of the shares outstanding, subject to a portfolio liquidity threshold and at the discretion of the Board. However, there can be no assurance that the Fund will repurchase shares on a quarterly basis or at all. Further, if the Fund repurchases shares, there is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell all of the Shares that they desire to sell in any particular quarter. Shares of the Fund are still considered illiquid and appropriate only for those investors who do not require a liquid investment and who are aware of the risks involved in investing in the Fund.
