** The loss rate is calculated by CION based on operations since December 2012 (inception) as the aggregate investment cost at write-off, less (i) any economic benefit realized during the loan (interest and fees) and (ii) any economic recovery, divided by the total invested capital. This rate is presented on an annualized basis and, with rounding, is approximately zero percent since CION’s inception. Also, this rate is presented to demonstrate CION’s investment portfolio characteristics and does not reflect the investment performance experienced by a CION investor.
