This prospectus supplement contains information which amends, supplements and modifies certain information contained in the prospectus dated November 8, 2024 (the “Base Prospectus”) as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated November 12, 2024 (the “November 2024 Prospectus Supplement”) and the prospectus supplement dated January 28, 2025 (the “January 2025 Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the November 2024 Prospectus Supplement, this prospectus supplement and the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), which relate to the sale of shares of common stock of Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (the “Company”) in an “at-the-market” offering pursuant to an Amended and Restated Equity Distribution Agreement dated September 9, 2022, as amended pursuant to that certain Amendment No. 1, dated as of November 15, 2023, that certain Amendment No. 2, dated as of July 29, 2024, and that certain Amendment No. 3, dated as of November 12, 2024 (collectively, the “Amended Equity Distribution Agreement”), with Lucid Capital Markets, LLC and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (the “Distribution Agents”). The Company’s investment adviser, Oxford Lane Management, LLC, has agreed to pay to the Distribution Agents, if necessary, a supplemental payment per share that will reflect the difference between the public offering price per share and the net proceeds per share received by the Company in this offering such that the net proceeds per share received by the Company (before expenses) are not below the Company’s then current net asset value per share.

You should also review the information set forth under the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page 15 of the Base Prospectus and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are incorporated by reference into the Prospectus, before investing.
