style="color:#003C78;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.30pt;">In September 2025, the Fund&#8217;s Board of Directors (the Board) approved a stock repurchase program under which the
</font><font style="color:#003C78;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.30pt;">Fund repurchases up to 5% of the Fund&#8217;s outstanding Common Stock during the year directly from stockholders and </font><font

Common Stock in the open market. The intent of the stock repurchase program is, among other things, to </font><font style="color:#003C78;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.30pt;">moderate the growth in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding,
increase the net asset value of the </font><font style="color:#003C78;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.30pt;">Fund&#8217;s outstanding shares, reduce the dilutive impact on stockholders who do not take capital gains distributions in </font><font
