Increase in Public Offering Price
On February 9, 2012, our board of directors approved an increase in our public offering price from $10.65 per share to $10.70 per share. This increase in the public offering price will be effective as of our February 16, 2012 semi-monthly closing and will first apply to subscriptions received from February 1, 2012 through February 15, 2012. The purpose of this action was to ensure that our net asset value per share does not exceed our offering price per share, after deduction of selling commissions and dealer manager fees, as required by the 1940 Act.
