Additional Information
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Our distributions may exceed our earnings, and therefore, portions of the distributions that we make may be a return of the money that you originally invested and represent a return of capital to you for tax purposes. The Fund will ordinarily pay distributions from its net investment income, if any, on a monthly basis. Distributions are not guaranteed. Based on current estimates, February, March and April 2026 distributions reflect a return of income, and the Fund does not expect any portion of the distributions to be a return of capital. Such a return of capital is not immediately taxable, but reduces your tax basis in our shares, which may result in higher taxes for you even if your shares are sold at a price below your original investment.
