The Schedule TO relates to the offer by the Company to purchase up to 3,135,724 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), at a purchase price equal to the net asset value per Share as of March 31, 2024, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated March 1, 2024 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the "Offer to Purchase"), and in the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto and with the Offer to Purchase, the "Offer"), which are filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii), respectively.
This Amendment is being filed by the Company to report the final results of the Offer. Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged.
