This Presentation does not constitute a prospectus and should under no circumstances be understood as an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy our common shares or any other securities nor will there be any sale of the common shares or any other securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. This Presentation provides limited information regarding the Fund and is not intended to be taken by, and should not be taken by, any individual recipient as investment advice, a recommendation to buy, hold or sell, or an offer to sell or a solicitation of offers to purchase, our common shares or any other securities that may be issued by the Fund, or as legal, accounting or tax advice. An investment in securities of the type described herein presents certain risks. This Presentation may contain forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by the use of forward- looking terminology such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “will,” “should,” “may,” “plans,” “continue,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “targets,” “projects,” “outlook,” “potential,” “predicts” and variations of these words and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements include these words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our plans, strategies, prospects and expectations concerning our business, operating results, financial condition and other similar matters. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. There may be events in the future, however, that we are not able to predict accurately or control. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which we make them. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ, possibly materially from our expectations, include, but are not limited to, the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and it is not possible for us to predict or identify all of them. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Information throughout the Presentation provided by sources other than the Fund (including information relating to portfolio companies) has not been independently verified and, accordingly, the Fund makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information. The following slides contain summaries of certain financial and statistical information about the Fund. The information contained in this Presentation is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of our SEC filings and other public announcements that we may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time.

This Presentation contains information about the Fund and certain of its affiliates and includes the Fund’s historical performance. You should not view information related to the past performance of the Fund as indicative of the Company’s future results, the achievement of which is dependent on many factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Fund and the Investment Adviser and cannot be assured. There can be no assurances that future dividends will match or exceed historical rates or will be paid at all. Further, an investment in the Fund is discrete from, and does not represent an interest in, any other Carlyle entity. Nothing contained herein shall be relied upon as a promise or representation whether as to the past or future performance of the Fund or any other Carlyle entity.

This measure is not provided as a substitute for GAAP net investment income ("GAAP NII"), but in addition to it. Adjusted net investment income represents GAAP NII adjusted to exclude non-cash expenses associated with the amortization of (i) deferred issuance costs and (ii) original issue discount on the Fund's preferred shares. We believe adjusted net investment income is useful to investors in assessing the Fund's ongoing performance of earning income on its portfolio. The incentive fee under the investment advisory agreement is calculated based on pre- incentive fee net investment income. By removing non-cash amortization expense from pre-incentive fee net investment income, the amount of incentive fee payable may increase. The adjusted net investment income figure shown reflects this corresponding impact. We provide information relating to core net investment income (“CNII”), a non-GAAP measure, on a supplemental basis. This measure is not provided as a substitute for GAAP NII, but in addition to it. Our non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures by other companies, even in the event of similar terms being utilized to identify such measures. CNII is calculated using recurring cash flows minus expenses, adjusted for non-cash amortization (in accordance with the calculation of adjusted NII described above). Carlyle Credit Income Fund’s (“CCIF”) management uses this information in its internal analysis of results and believes that this information may be informative in assessing the quality of CCIF’s financial performance, identifying trends in its results and providing meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Income from investments in the “equity” class securities of CLO vehicles, for GAAP purposes, is recorded using the effective interest method; this is based on an effective yield to the expected redemption utilizing estimated cash flows, at current cost, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. The result is an effective yield for the investment in which the respective investment’s cost basis is adjusted quarterly based on the difference between the actual cash received, or distributions entitled to be received, and the effective yield calculation. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from the cash distributions actually received by CCIF during the period (referred to below as “CLO equity adjustments”). Furthermore, in order for CCIF to continue qualifying as a regulated investment company for tax purposes, we are required, among other things, to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income annually. While CNII may provide a better indication of our estimated taxable income than GAAP NII during certain periods, we can offer no assurance that will be the case, however, as the ultimate tax character of our earnings cannot be determined until after tax returns are prepared at the close of a fiscal year. We note that this non-GAAP measure may not serve as a useful indicator of taxable earnings, particularly during periods of market disruption and volatility, and, as such, our taxable income may differ materially from our CNII. Previous earnings presentations for CCIF have calculated CNII using recurring cash flows minus expenses, without adjustment for non-cash amortization.
