Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final closing date and total capital raised in the $2.35 billion public offering.
- Confirm the exact date of the "NAV Pricing Date" to determine when the reduced management fee (1.25%) and loan fee allocation to the Advisor become effective.
- Review the full text of the Dealer Manager Agreement (Exhibit 1.1) for specific termination clauses and indemnification details.
- Monitor the Company's initial Net Asset Value (NAV) calculation to assess the impact of the new fee structure on distributable income.
- Check subsequent filings for the actual volume of shares sold in each class (A, D, I, S, T) to calculate realized selling commissions and fees.
