Shares Issued for Performance Allocation Related Compensation
In October 2021, the Company commenced a program under which, at the Company’s discretion, up to 20% of realized performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation over a certain threshold amount may be distributed in fully vested, newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company distributed 636,461 fully vested, newly issued common shares, related to previously accrued performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation of $31.3 million.
Stock Repurchase Program
In October 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $400.0 million of common stock, which replaced an authorization provided in February 2021 effective January 1, 2022. Under this repurchase program, shares of common stock may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and actual number of shares of common stock repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price, and economic and market conditions. This repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid an aggregate of $80.4 million and $10.0 million, respectively, to repurchase and retire approximately 1.7 million and 0.3 million shares, respectively, with all of the repurchases done via open market and brokered transactions. As of March 31, 2022, $319.6 million of repurchase capacity remained under the program.
Shares Issued in Connection with Acquisition

The Board of Directors will take into account general economic and business conditions, as well as the Company’s strategic plans and prospects, business and investment opportunities, financial condition and obligations, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, other constraints on the payment of dividends by the Company to its common stockholders or by subsidiaries to the Company, and other such factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, the terms of the Company’s credit facility provide certain limits on the Company’s ability to pay dividends.
