EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Gladstone Capital Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K (this “Amendment”) to amend the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 11, 2003 (the “Original 10-K”).  The purpose of this Amendment is to provide certain information in Item 12 of Part III of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003 that was to be incorporated by reference from the Company’s 2004 Proxy Statement.  The complete text, as amended, of Item 12 of Part III is set forth below.

 

As a result, the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission require that certain exhibits previously provided in Item 15 be provided again.  Item 15 is therefore amended to provide the certifications required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.3, 31.4, 32.3 and 32.4.

 

This amendment is limited in scope to the portions of the Annual Report set forth above and does not amend, update, or change any other items or disclosures contained in the Annual Report.  Accordingly, all other items that remain unaffected are omitted in this filing.  None of the amendments to the Annual Report reflected in this amended Form 10-K resulted in a change to or restatement of the financial statements or other financial information included in the Annual Report.

 

This amended Form 10-K continues to speak as of the date of its original filing and we have not updated any disclosure to reflect any events that occurred at any subsequent date.  The filing of this amended Form 10-K shall not be deemed an admission that the Original 10-K, when made, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement therein not misleading.

 



 

Item 12.  Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

 

The information required by Item 403 of Regulation S-K is incorporated by reference from our 2004 Proxy Statement under the caption “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.”
