 the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Deloitte is responsible for auditing the Company’s annual financial statements. While the Independent Directors are responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, termination and oversight of the independent auditor, the Company is requesting, as a matter of good corporate governance, that the shareholders ratify the appointment of Deloitte as the independent registered public accounting firm. If the shareholders fail to ratify the selection, the Independent Directors will reconsider whether to retain Deloitte and may retain that firm or another without re-submittingthe matter to our shareholders. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Independent Directors may, in their discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year. Representatives of Deloitte will be available in person at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to questions. Deloitte, in accordance with Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (“ ISB No. 1”), has confirmed to the Audit Committee that Deloitte is an independent auditor with respect to the Company. Certain information concerning the fees and services provided by Deloitte to the Company and to the Advisor and its affiliates for the most recent fiscal year of the Company is provided below. For purposes of the following information, the Advisor and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Advisor that provides ongoing services to the Company, are referred to as “Service Affiliates.”
