Decrease in Public Offering Price
On September 30, 2011, our board of directors approved a decrease in our public offering price from $10.75 per share to $10.65 per share. This decrease in the public offering price will be effective as of our October 3, 2011 semi-monthly closing and will first apply to subscriptions received from September 16, 2011 through September 30, 2011. In accordance with our share pricing policy, our board of directors determined that a reduction in the public offering price per share was warranted following a decline in our net asset value per share to an amount more than 5% below our then-current net offering price.
