Dear Stockholder:
According to our latest records, we have not received your voting instructions for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of BlackRock TCP Capital Corp. to
be held on May 24, 2022, at 8:30 a.m., Pacific Time. Copies of the proxy materials can be found online at http://investors.tcpcapital.com/financial-information/annual-reports. Because TCPC is a widely-held company, your vote is
extremely important no matter how many shares you hold.
Please vote your shares today so the Company may avoid additional solicitation expenses and potential
delays.
For the reasons set forth in the Proxy Statement dated April 1, 2022, the Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR”
both Proposals. As a reminder, Proposal 2 is the same proposal that has been approved by shareholders every year since TCPC went public. Leading independent proxy advisory firms, ISS & Glass Lewis, have both recommended voting “FOR”
Proposal 2. Please vote your shares via the internet or by telephone as soon as possible or alternatively, please sign, date, and return the enclosed voting instruction form (see the instructions below).
If you have any questions about the proposals to be voted on, please call our solicitor, D.F. King & Co., Inc., at (800) 967-4617. On behalf of
