4 terms

Class I Common Shares financial

"executed an open-market sale of 941,662 Class I Common Shares at"

Distribution Reinvestment Plan financial

"Includes shares acquired through Issuer's Distribution Reinvestment Plan."

An automatic program that uses cash distributions—such as dividends or other payouts—from a stock or fund to buy additional shares of the same security instead of handing out cash to the investor. Think of it like using store credit you’d otherwise pocket to buy more items: it makes your holding grow over time without you having to manually reinvest, which can compound returns, reduce transaction costs and change the timing of taxable income.

management fees taken in shares financial

"Shares sold to cover taxes associated with management fees taken in shares."

open-market sale financial

"executed an open-market sale of 941,662 Class I Common Shares"

An open-market sale is when a shareholder sells existing shares directly on a public exchange to any willing buyer, rather than through a private deal. Think of it like putting goods on a busy market stall where price is set by supply and demand; for investors it matters because such sales increase available supply, can put short-term downward pressure on the stock price, and signal changes in liquidity or investor confidence.
