| Item 8.01 | Other Events |
On February 7, 2025, the Board of the Company declared a monthly stock dividend for the month of February 2025 on the Company’s 13.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). This dividend was scheduled to be paid in cash on February 28, 2025 to holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock. This Current Report on Form 8-K represents the first public disclosure of the February 2025 dividend, which had not been previously announced.
Dividend Rate Recalculation and Adjustment:
Following a recent de-listing event involving the Company’s securities, and after consultation with the Company’s internal and external experts, the annual dividend rate on the Series A Preferred Stock has been recalculated and adjusted from 13% to 19%. This adjustment is based on the Company’s analysis of the terms applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock in light of the de-listing of the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market on January 17, 2025. The increase of approximately 6% (from the initial 13% rate to a 19% rate per annum) is intended to comply with and reflect the requirements and expectations resulting from the de-listing event.
Retroactive Application to February Dividend:
The revised 19% dividend rate will apply retroactively to the declared February 2025 dividend. Accordingly, the dividend payable to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock for February 2025 will be recalculated at the 19% annual rate (instead of the prior 13% rate). To facilitate this adjustment and ensure accurate distribution, the payment of the February dividend—originally scheduled for February 28, 2025—will be slightly delayed. The Company expects to distribute the February 2025 dividend as soon as practicable after March 31, 2025, with the payment reflecting the higher 19% rate. Holders of record will receive an additional $0.125 per share of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the February dividend.
Reconciliation of January 2025 Dividend:
In addition, the Company notes that the January 2025 monthly dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock (which was previously determined at the 13% rate and paid) will also be reconciled at the new 19% rate for the prorate period of time that the Company’s common stock was de-listed from Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company is taking steps to adjust the January 2025 dividend amount so that shareholders receive the full dividend value as if the 19% annual rate had been in effect for that period. Any shortfall attributable to the prior 13% calculation will be paid to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to bring the January dividend up to the revised rate. Holders of record will receive an additional $0.0604839 per share of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the January dividend.

Assurance on Future Dividends:
The Company confirms that the monthly dividend for March 2025 will be paid on time and at the adjusted 19% rate. The March 2025 dividend is expected to be paid on its regular schedule with the dividend amount calculated at the 19% annual rate. Going forward, the Company intends to continue its regular monthly dividend payments on the Series A Preferred Stock at the 19% rate, unless and until conditions warrant further adjustment (for example, in the event of a relisting or other material change). The Company does not anticipate any further disruptions to its dividend schedule and is committed to timely dividend distributions for the benefit of its preferred stockholders.
