Key Details

• Board action date: August 4, 2026.
• New monthly gross distribution: $0.0550 per share (stockholders of record Aug 31 and Sep 30, 2026).
• Previous monthly gross distribution: $0.0525 per share (effective since July 31, 2025).
• Certain share classes (Class T‑R, Class D‑R, Class S‑PR, Class D‑PR) will receive reduced net distributions due to applicable distribution fees.
• Payments are made on or about the last business day of each month to holders of record at the close of that day. The company said there is no assurance the new rate will be maintained.

Why It Matters
For investors, the increase raises the monthly cash payout by $0.0025 per share, a roughly 4.76% lift versus the prior monthly rate, improving near‑term income for common shareholders. However, investors should check their specific share class (fees reduce net amounts for some classes) and note the company did not guarantee the distribution level beyond the announced months.
