Registration Statement
On September 3, 2021, we filed a registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-259302), which the SEC declared effective on October 15, 2021. The registration statement permits us to issue, through one or more transactions, up to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, debt securities, and warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock, or debt securities, including through concurrent, separate offerings of such securities. As of December 31, 2023, we had the ability to issue up to $194.5 million of the $300.0 million of securities registered under the registration statement.
Common Equity Offering
In August 2022, we entered into equity distribution agreements with Oppenheimer & Co. and Virtu Americas LLC (each a “Sales Agent”), under which we have the ability to issue and sell shares of our common stock, from time to time, through the Sales Agents, having an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million in what is commonly referred to as an “at-the-market” program (“Common Stock ATM Program”). In August 2023, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with B. Riley Securities, Inc. and entered into amendments to the agreements with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and Virtu Americas LLC in order to add B. Riley Securities, Inc. as a Sales Agent for the Common Stock ATM Program. As of December 31, 2023, we had remaining capacity to sell up to an additional $19.3 million of common stock under the Common Stock ATM program.
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we sold 1,456,279 shares of our common stock under the Common Stock ATM Program, with a weighted-average gross price of $14.51 per share and a weighted-average net price of $14.28 per share after deducting commissions and offering costs borne by us, raising approximately $21.1 million and $20.8 million of gross and net proceeds, respectively.

All of these sales were above our then current estimated NAV per share.
