The LLC Agreement authorizes the board of directors, without approval of any of the members, to increase the number of shares the company is authorized to issue and to classify and reclassify any authorized but unissued class or series of shares into any other class or series of shares having such designations, preferences, right, power and duties as may be specified by the board of directors. The LLC Agreement also authorizes the board of directors, without approval of any of the members, to issue additional shares of any class or series for the consideration and on the terms and conditions established by the board of directors. In addition, the company may also issue additional limited liability company interests that have designations, preferences, right, powers and duties that are different from, and may be senior to, those applicable to the common shares. The Special Unitholder will hold the special unit in the company. Refer to Note 5 for the terms of the special unit. The proceeds related to the shareholder receivable amount of $200,000 presented on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2019 were subsequently collected on July 1, 2019. Distribution Reinvestment Plan The company adopted the DRP through which the company’s Class A, C and I shareholders may elect to purchase additional shares with distributions from the company rather than receiving the cash distributions. Shares issued pursuant to the DRP will have the same voting rights as shares offered pursuant to the company’s public offering. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, $10,000,000 and $50,000,000 in shares were allocated for use in the DRP, respectively. As of December 2018, the purchase price of shares purchased through the DRP will be at a price equal to the net offering price per share, calculated consistently with the methodology used during then continuous public offering. Except for distribution fees on Class C shares issued under the DRP, no dealer manager fees, selling commissions or other sales charges will be paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRP. At its discretion, the board of directors may amend, suspend, or terminate the DRP. A participant may terminate participation in the DRP by written notice to the plan administrator, received by the plan administrator at least 10 days prior to the distribution payment date. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, 2,089,427 and 1,703,374 shares, respectively, were issued under the DRP. Share Repurchase Program During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the company commenced a share repurchase program, or “share repurchase program”, pursuant to which quarterly share repurchases will be conducted, on up to approximately 5% of the weighted average number of outstanding shares in any 12-month period, to allow members who hold Class A, C, I, P-A (commencing as of April 16, 2018) or P-I shares (commencing as of October 1, 2017) to sell shares back to the company at a price equal to the then current offering price less the selling commissions and dealer manager fees associated with that class of shares. The company is not obligated to repurchase shares and the board of directors may terminate the share repurchase program at its sole discretion. The share repurchase program includes numerous restrictions that will limit a shareholder’s ability to sell shares. Unless the board of directors determines otherwise, the company limits the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares the company can repurchase with the proceeds received from the sale of shares under the DRP. At the sole discretion of the board of directors, the company may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from liquidation of investments to repurchase shares. In addition, the company plans to limit repurchases in each fiscal quarter to 1.25% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the prior four fiscal quarters. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the company repurchased 304,469 Class A shares, 1,867 Class C shares, 80,366 Class I shares, and 48,185 Class P-I shares at a total purchase price of $2,635,353, $15,853, $695,925, and $422,135, respectively, pursuant to the company’s share repurchase program. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the company repurchased 140,037 Class A shares, 4,227 Class C shares, 26,071 Class I and 9,743 Class P-I shares at a total purchase of $1,237,852, $36,240, $230,106 and $85,838, respectively, pursuant to the company’s share repurchase program. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the average NAV per share for the repurchases in Class A, Class C, Class I and Class P-I were $8.66, $8.49, $8.66 and $8.76, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the average NAV per share for the repurchases in Class A, Class C, Class I and Class P-I were, $8.84, $8.57, $8.83 and $8.81, respectively. We have received an order for our repurchase program from the SEC under Rule 102(a) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act. In addition, our repurchase program is substantially similar to repurchase programs for which the SEC has stated it will not recommend enforcement action under Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E under the Exchange Act. |
