Share Transactions

Below is a summary of transactions with respect to the Company’s common shares during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023			2022
	Shares	Amount		Shares	Amount
Reinvestment of Distributions	2,663,874	$	10,388	2,741,168	$	10,460
Proceeds from Share Transactions	2,663,874	$	10,388	2,741,168	$	10,460

During the period from July 1, 2023 to July 31, 2023, the Company issued 1,375,076 common shares pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan for gross proceeds of $5,156 at an average price per share of $3.75.

On July 19, 2023, the Company’s board of trustees, including the independent trustees, approved the termination of the Company’s second amended and restated distribution reinvestment plan with respect to distributions declared by the Company’s board of trustees on the Company’s common shares, effective as of September 15, 2023. After this date, all shareholders will receive any subsequent distributions in cash.

On February 25, 2020, the Company received exemptive relief from the SEC permitting it to offer multiple classes of common shares. While the Company has no present intention to recommence a public offering of its common shares, the Company could do so in the future.

Share Repurchase Program

In March 2020, in light of difficult market conditions and in an effort to preserve liquidity in the Company, the Company’s board of trustees determined to suspend for an indefinite period of time the Company’s share repurchase program and will reassess the Company’s ability to recommence such program in future periods.

Prior to its suspension, the Company intended to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to its share repurchase program. The Company's board of trustees will consider the following factors, among others, in making its determination regarding whether to cause the Company to offer to repurchase common shares and under what terms:

•    the effect of such repurchases on the Company’s qualification as a RIC (including the consequences of any necessary asset sales);

•    the liquidity of the Company's assets (including fees and costs associated with disposing of assets);

•    the Company’s investment plans and working capital requirements;

•    the relative economies of scale with respect to the Company’s size;

•    the Company’s history in repurchasing common shares or portions thereof; and

•    the condition of the securities markets.

Historically, the Company limited the number of common shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the lesser of (i) the number of common shares the Company can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the issuance of common shares under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) 10% of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the prior calendar year, or 2.5% in each calendar quarter. On May 5, 2017, the board of trustees of the Company further amended the share repurchase program. As amended, the Company limited the maximum number of common shares to be repurchased for any repurchase offer to the greater of (A) the number of common shares that the Company can repurchase with the proceeds it has received from the sale of common shares under its distribution reinvestment plan during the twelve-month period ending on the date the applicable repurchase offer expires (less the amount of proceeds used to repurchase common shares on each previous repurchase date for repurchase offers conducted during such twelve-month period) (this limitation is referred to as the twelve-month repurchase limitation) and (B) the number of common shares that the Company can repurchase with the proceeds the Company receives from the sale of common shares under its distribution reinvestment plan during the three-month period ending on the date the applicable repurchase offer expires (this limitation is referred to as the three-month repurchase limitation). In addition to this limitation, the maximum number of common shares to be repurchased for any repurchase offer has also been limited to 10% of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the prior calendar year, or 2.5% in each calendar quarter. As a result, the maximum number of common shares to be repurchased for any repurchase offer would not exceed the lesser of (i) 10% of the weighted average number

of common shares outstanding in the prior calendar year, or 2.5% in each calendar quarter, and (ii) whichever is greater of the twelve-month repurchase limitation described in clause (A) above and the three-month repurchase limitation described in clause (B) above.

Historically, pursuant to the Company's share repurchase program, the Company offered to repurchase common shares at a price equal to the price at which common shares are issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan on the distribution date coinciding with the applicable share repurchase date. The price at which common shares are issued under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan is determined by the Company’s board of trustees or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, and will be (i) not less than the net asset value per common share as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of trustees or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, immediately prior to the payment date of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per common share as of such date. The Company’s board of trustees may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time, upon 30 days’ notice. The Company did not repurchase any shares pursuant to its share repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company's distribution reinvestment plan will be terminated effective September 15, 2023.

In order to minimize the expense of supporting small accounts and provide additional liquidity to shareholders of the Company holding small accounts after completion of a regular quarterly share repurchase offer, the Company reserves the right to repurchase the shares of and liquidate any investor’s account if the balance of such account is less than the Company’s $5 minimum initial investment, unless the account balance has fallen below the minimum solely as a result of a decline in the Company’s net asset value per share. The Company will provide or will cause to be provided 30 days’ prior written notice to potentially affected investors, which notice may be included in regular quarterly repurchase offer materials, of any such repurchase. Historically, any such repurchases were made at the Company’s most recent price at which the Company’s shares were issued pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan. There were no de minimis account liquidations during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
