Address of Issuer’s principal executive offices: 8 Sound Shore Drive, Suite 255, Greenwich, CT 06830

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

This Schedule 13D is jointly filed pursuant to a Joint Filing Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A by (i) Eagle Point Credit Management LLC (“EPCM”), a Delaware limited liability company, and (ii) Thomas Philip Majewski, a United States citizen (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”). The principal business address for each Reporting Person is 600 Steamboat Road, Suite 202, Greenwich, CT 06830 United States.

EPCM is a registered investment adviser and serves as investment adviser to certain private funds and certain separately managed accounts, which hold the Preferred Shares described herein (collectively, the “Accounts”). EPCM is ultimately wholly owned by Eagle Point Holdings LP (“EP Holdings”) through intermediary holding companies. Eagle Point Holdings GP LLC (“EP Holdings GP”) is the sole general partner of EP Holdings. EP Holdings GP is managed by a board of managers (the “EP Holdings Board”) of which the majority of the members are appointed by Trident EP-II Holdings LLC (“EP-II LLC”), which also owns a majority of the voting interests in EP Holdings GP.

Information regarding EP Holdings, EP Holdings GP, EP-II LLC, and each member of the EP Holdings Board (the “Additional Disclosed Persons” and, together with the Reporting Persons, the “Disclosed Parties”) is attached to this Schedule 13D as Schedule I and is incorporated herein by reference.

During the past five years, none of the Disclosed Parties (i) has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

A portion of the Preferred Shares were acquired over a period of time in secondary transactions at various prices. The funds used to acquire the Preferred Shares beneficially owned by EPCM were from each applicable Account’s available investment capital, except that certain funds used by certain Accounts were obtained on margin pursuant to a prime brokerage arrangement with Pershing LLC. The funds used to acquire the Preferred Shares for which Mr. Majewski has sole dispositive power were from personal assets.

An aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of 6.00% Series 2029 Shares purchased by certain of the Accounts were acquired in connection with an underwritten public offering that closed on August 17, 2021. The aggregate purchase price of the 6.00% Series 2029 Shares acquired in the public offering was $24,450,000.

An aggregate of 575,000 shares of 7.125% Series 2029 Shares purchased by certain of the Accounts were acquired in connection with an underwritten public offering that closed on June 16, 2022. The aggregate purchase price of the 6.00% Series 2029 Shares acquired in the public offering was $14,087,500.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

EPCM caused the Accounts to acquire the Preferred Shares they hold for investment purposes and will continue to analyze such investments on an ongoing basis. EPCM, on behalf of the Accounts, reserves the right to increase or decrease the Accounts’ ownership of the Preferred Shares over time.

Mr. Majewski acquired the Preferred Shares over which he has sole dispositive power with a view to making a profit on his investment. He reserves the right to increase or decrease his ownership of the Preferred Shares.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

CURRENT OWNERSHIP

Based on public disclosures filed by the Issuer with the SEC, the Issuer currently has total of 11,486,721 shares of preferred stock outstanding. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 2,334,903 Preferred Shares (without overlap), which represents approximately 20.3% of all of the Issuer’s outstanding preferred shares. The number of Preferred Shares which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Disclosed Parties are as follows:

Shares Deemed to be Beneficially Owned By:	Nature of Ownership	Percentage of Class
Eagle Point Credit Management LLC: 2,323,153	Sole Voting and Sole Dispositive Power (1)	20.2%
Thomas Philip Majewski: 9,250	Sole Voting and Sole Dispositive Power (2)	0.08%
Thomas Philip Majewski: 2,323,153	Shared Voting and Shared Dispositive Power (3)	20.2%
EP Holdings (4): -	-	-
EP Holdings GP (4): -	-	-
EP Holdings Board members (4): -	-	-
EP-II LLC (4): -	-	-

(1) Pursuant to an investment management agreement between EPCM and each Account, EPCM has discretionary investment authority and voting power with respect to the Preferred Shares held by the Accounts. Thus, EPCM could be deemed to have the sole power to vote and dispose or direct the disposition of such Preferred Shares.

(2) Mr. Majewski directly holds these Preferred Shares and thus has the sole power to vote and dispose or direct the disposition of such Preferred Shares.

(3) As managing partner and portfolio manager for EPCM, Mr. Majewski has the ability to exercise investment discretion over the Accounts. Thus, he could be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose or direct the disposition of the Preferred Shares held by the Accounts.

(4) EP Holdings is a holding company for EPCM. While EP Holdings, EP Holdings GP, each of the EP Holdings Board members, and EP-II LLC could be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the securities held by the Accounts and beneficially owned by EPCM, each of the foregoing fully disclaim beneficial ownership of such securities.

TRANSACTIONS

During the past sixty days:

From March 20, 2023 to March 21, 2023, shares of 7.125% Series 2029 Shares were purchased for certain Accounts at prices ranging from $21.85 per share to $21.95 per share in open-market transactions.
