Item 8.01 Other Events.

On May 11, 2020, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) unanimously approved the suspension of the Company’s Share Repurchase Program, effective immediately.

The Board discussed the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken by government agencies and issuers in response to COVID-19. The virus and countermeasures have disrupted markets for assets owned and sought by the Company, prompting a decline in the value of such assets. Under these circumstances, the Board determined that the Company and its stockholders are best served by retention of cash, thereby allowing the Company to capitalize on opportunities to acquire assets at attractive prices. In assessing the Company’s cash position, the Board assessed the Company’s share repurchase program, and it has decided to temporarily suspend the share repurchase program, effective immediately.

In assessing the Company’s cash position, the Board also assessed the Company’s dividend reinvestment program. The Board made no charges to the dividend reinvestment program.

Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including intentions, beliefs, expectations or projections relating to items such as the timing of payment of dividends are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are based on current expectations and assumptions with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions that may prove incorrect or inaccurate. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019, as amended, and its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
