As previously reported, Mark A. Tipton resigned from his position as Chief Financial Officer of TriLinc Global Impact Fund, LLC (“TGIF,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), effective as of June 30, 2024. Mr. Tipton agreed to assume the role of interim Chief Financial Officer and serve as the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer on an interim basis while the Company conducts its search for a successor. As the Company continues its search for a successor, the board of managers of the Company (the “Board”) has appointed Ms. Gloria Nelund, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, to also temporarily serve as the Company’s interim Chief Financial Officer.

 

Ms. Nelund, 63, has served as the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President since its formation in April 2012 and became our President in December 2014. In addition, she has served as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TriLinc Advisors, LLC, the Company’s advisor (the “Advisor”) since its formation in April 2012, President of the Advisor from December 2014 to August 2019, Chief Compliance Officer of the Advisor from November 2013 to February 2019, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TriLinc Global, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”) since its formation in August 2008, President of the Sponsor from December 2014 to October 2015 and Chief Compliance Officer of the Sponsor from November 2013 to February 2019.

 

Ms. Nelund owns an equity interest in the Sponsor, which wholly-owns the Advisor.  The Advisor and the Company are parties to the Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, dated February 14, 2018, which has been renewed through February 25, 2025 (the “Advisory Agreement”), pursuant to which the Advisor is responsible for managing, operating, directing and supervising the operations and administration of the Company and its assets in exchange for asset management and incentive fees. For the year ended December 31, 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Advisor earned $5,539,005 and $2,748,719, respectively, in asset management fees and waived the incentive fees that would have otherwise been payable under the Advisory Agreement.  In addition, Ms. Nelund is the sister-in-law of Brent L.
