Share Price [Table Text Block]                           Trading History
The following table, reflecting the public trading history of our common stock since January 1, 2021, lists the high
and low closing sales prices for our common stock, and such closing sales prices as percentages of the net asset
values per share for the relevant periods. On March 8, 2024, the record date, the last reported closing sale price of
our common stock on the NYSE was $9.69. Net asset value per share in the table below is determined as of the last
day in the relevant quarter and therefore may not reflect the net asset value per share on the date of the high and low
closing sales prices. The net asset values shown are based on outstanding shares at the end of each period.
