Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
2016 Conditional Income Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement

On May 9, 2016, HMS Income Fund, Inc. (the "Company"), HMS Adviser LP and MSC Adviser I, LLC (together, the "Advisers") have entered into a conditional income incentive fee waiver agreement (the “2016 Conditional Income Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement”), pursuant to which, for a period from January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2016, the Advisers could waive the “subordinated incentive fee on income,” as such term is defined in the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement dated May 31, 2012, upon the occurrence of any event that, in the Advisers’ sole discretion, causes such waiver to be deemed necessary. The 2016 Conditional Income Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement may require the Company to repay the Advisers for previously waived reimbursement of payments by HMS Adviser LP of the Company's operating expenses ("Expense Support Payments") or waived base management fees or incentive fees under certain circumstances. The previously waived fees are potentially subject to repayment by the Company, if at all, within a period not to exceed three years from the date of each respective fee waiver. Thus, in any quarter where a surplus exists, that surplus will be available, subject to approval of the board of directors, to reimburse waived fees and Expense Support Payments as follows:

1.
First, to reimburse Expense Support Payments, beginning with the earliest year eligible for reimbursement; and
2.
Second, to reimburse all waived fees, beginning with the earliest year eligible for reimbursement.

The foregoing description of the 2016 Conditional Income Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2016 Conditional Income Incentive Fee Waiver Agreement, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.
