(“Issuer”) distributed an extraordinary cash dividend to shareholders of record as of December 18, 2023 of $8.00 per share. The $8.00 per share dividend will be treated as a tax free return of capital up to an investor’s adjusted cost basis in its shares, and if an investor’s adjusted cost basis is reduced to zero, any remaining portion of the dividend will be taxed as capital gains. When a cash distribution is made by a corporation, it is treated as a taxable dividend to the extent of the current and accumulated earnings and profits (“E&P”) of that corporation at the date of the distribution or, in certain cases, at the end of the tax year in which the distribution was made. In order to determine what portion of this cash distribution should be treated as a taxable dividend versus return of capital/capital gain, the Issuer completed an estimated computation of E&P as of December 31, 2023. According to this computation, Issuer had a current and accumulated E&P deficit. As a result, the distribution of $8.00 per share is treated as a non-taxable return of capital up to an investor’s cost basis.
