Item 7.01.
Regulation FD Disclosure.
 
Prospect Capital Corporation (the “Company”) has been informed that one of the proposed co-managers of the Company’s proposed offering of shares of its common stock (the “Offering”) asserted to certain potential investors in the Offering erroneous details as to a possible disposition of Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc. (“Gas Solutions”), when there is currently no agreement and therefore no details to disclose.  Such entity will not serve as a co-manager of the Offering.  As previously disclosed, the Company is seeking to monetize its investment in Gas Solutions.  While the Company has from time to time been in negotiations regarding a potential disposition, the Company has not reached any agreement regarding a price, structure, or otherwise regarding a proposed transaction.  The Company cannot assure you if or when the Company would consummate any such transaction or the price or structure of any such transaction.
