The Company has not established a minimum distribution payment level and is not assured of its ability to make distributions to stockholders in the future.

 

As of December 15, 2020, the Company had 72,604,539 shares of common stock outstanding. As of November 30, 2020, the Company had 70,117,699 shares of common stock outstanding. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had 69,295,962 shares of common stock outstanding.
