Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At 10:30 a.m. (Pacific Time) on May 23, 2024, Blackrock
Direct Lending Corp. (“BDLC”) convened its 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders via live Internet webcast (the “Meeting”). At that time, there were not present or represented by proxy a sufficient number of shares of the BDLC’s common stock to
constitute a quorum. Accordingly, BDLC adjourned the Meeting without any business being conducted. The adjourned meeting will reconvene on June 12, 2024 at 9:30 a.m. (Pacific Time), by virtual webcast, the details of which will be provided
separately. No changes have been made in the proposal to be voted on by stockholders at the Meeting. The proposal is described in
detail in BDLC’s definitive proxy statement for the Meeting as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 3, 2024 and as supplemented on May 10, 2024. The close of business on March 27, 2024 will continue to be the
record date for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to vote at the reconvened Meeting. During the period of the adjournment, BDLC will solicit proxies from its stockholders with respect to the proposal. Proxies previously
submitted in respect of the Meeting will be voted at the reconvened meeting unless properly revoked.
