**** IMPORTANT REMINDER****

**** TIME IS SHORT****

Dear Fellow Stockholder:

Our Annual Meeting of Stockholders is to be held on October 11, 2018 and there is not much time left for our stockholders to vote their shares. You are receiving this reminder letter because your votes were not yet processed at the time this letter was mailed.

Because of the voting requirements needed to pass the proposals, we strongly encourage you to submit your vote TODAY.

You can submit your vote by mail or, for your convenience, you have the ability to vote over the Internet or by telephone, and we are asking you to do so now to save Solar Capital Ltd. further expense and to ensure that your vote is counted. Instructions on how to vote over the telephone or Internet are enclosed in this package.

Your shares cannot be represented at the Annual Meeting with respect to any matters to be voted upon

unless you either sign and return the enclosed voting form, or vote by telephone or over the Internet.

If you sign and return the enclosed form without indicating a different choice, your shares will be voted “FOR” the election of each of the named nominees for director, “FOR” the proposal to authorize the sale of shares of common stock at below net asset value per share and “FOR” the proposal to reduce the required asset coverage ratio.

**** PLEASE VOTE TODAY****

Thank you for your investment in Solar Capital Ltd. and for voting your shares. If you have questions or need help voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitation firm, Morrow Sodali LLC at 1-800-267-0201.

Sincerely yours,
