Trust Common Shares
The Trust is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Trust common shares and the LLC is authorized to issue a corresponding number of LLC interests. The Company will, at all times, have the identical number of LLC interests outstanding as Trust shares. Each Trust share represents an undivided beneficial interest in the Trust, and each Trust share is entitled to one vote per share on any matter with respect to which members of the LLC are entitled to vote.
Private Placement
On December 15, 2023, the Company completed the sale of 3,550,000 common shares in a private placement to
Allspring Special Small Cap Value Fund for consideration per share equal to $21.18 per share, or an aggregate sale price of approximately $75.2 million. In connection with the issuance of the shares, we paid a commission equal to 1% of the aggregate sales price, or approximately $0.8 million. The sale of the common shares was made pursuant to a subscription agreement pursuant to which the buyer agreed not to dispose of the common shares for a period of six months following the date of the private placement.
At-The-Market Equity Offering Program - common shares
On September 5, 2024, the Company refreshed its at-the-market program for the common shares of the Trust, which was initially established on September 7, 2021, by filing a prospectus supplement pursuant to which the Company may, but has no obligation to, issue and sell up to $500 million common shares of the Trust in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, market conditions, the trading price of Trust common shares and determinations by us regarding appropriate sources of funding.
In connection with refreshing the program, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Amended Common Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. ("B. Riley Securities"), Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC ("Goldman") and TD Securities (USA) LLC (each a “Common Sales Agent” and, collectively, the “Common Sales Agents”). The Amended Common Sales Agreement provides that the Company may offer and sell Trust common shares from time to time through or to the Common Sales Agents, as sales agent or principal, up to $500 million, in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company. Pursuant to the Amended Common Sales Agreement, the shares may be offered and sold through each Common Sales Agent, acting separately, in ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker, on or through the New York Stock Exchange or any other market venue where the securities may be traded, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act or through a combination of any such methods of sale. The Amended Common Sales Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (collectively with the Amended Common Sales Agreement, the “Common Sales Agreement”), dated September 7, 2021, between the Company, B. Riley Securities and Goldman, which provided for the offer and sale of Trust common shares up to $500 million under the terms substantially same as those under the Amended Common Sales Agreement.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold 381,957 Trust common shares under the Sales Agreement. For the same period, the Company received total net proceeds of approximately $8.4 million from these sales, and incurred approximately $0.1 million in commissions payable to the Sales Agents.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no sales of Trust common shares under the Sales Agreement as the at-the-market program is not active when the share repurchase program is active.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold 3,464,844 Trust common shares under the Sales Agreement. For the same period, the Company received total net proceeds of approximately $84.0 million from these sales, and incurred approximately $1.5 million in commissions payable to the Sales Agents.
The Company incurred $0.6 million in total expenses related to the ATM program during the year ended December 31, 2024 and $0.2 million during both the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On October 15, 2024, the Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase, through December 31, 2024, subject to extension by the Board, up to $100 million of its outstanding common shares.

The Company repurchased 482,400 shares for approximately $9.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. The share repurchase program expired on December 31, 2023.
Trust Preferred Shares
The Trust is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 Trust preferred shares and the Company is authorized to issue a corresponding number of Trust Interests.
At-the-market equity offering program - preferred shares
On September 5, 2024, the Company refreshed its at-the-market program for certain preferred shares of the Trust, which was initially established in the first quarter of 2024, by filing a prospectus supplement pursuant to which the Company may, but has no obligation to, issue and sell up to $200 million of the Trust’s 7.250% Series A Preferred Shares (the “Series A Preferred Shares”), 7.875% Series B Preferred Shares (the “Series B Preferred Shares”), and 7.875% Series C Preferred Shares (the “Series C Preferred Shares” and together with the Series A Preferred Shares, the Series B Preferred Shares, and the Series C Preferred Shares, the “Preferred Shares”), each representing beneficial interests in the Trust. The at-the-market program for preferred shares of the Trust was initially established on March 20, 2024 and allowed for the issuance and sale of up to $100 million of the Trust’s preferred shares.
In connection with refreshing the program, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Amended Preferred Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (the “Preferred Sales Agent”). The Amended Preferred Sales Agreement provides that the Company may offer and sell Trust preferred shares from time to time through or to the Preferred Sales Agent, as sales agent or principal, up to $200 million, in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company. Pursuant to the Amended Preferred Sales Agreement, the shares may be offered and sold through the Preferred Sales Agent in ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker, on or through the New York Stock Exchange or any other market venue where the securities may be traded, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act or through a combination of any such methods of sale. The Amended Preferred Sales Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (collectively with the Amended Preferred Sales Agreement, the “Preferred Sales Agreement”), dated March 20, 2024, between the Company and B. Riley Securities, which provided for the offer and sale of Trust preferred shares up to $100 million under the terms substantially same as those under the Amended Preferred Sales Agreement.
