 redemption right, that could negatively impact the value of shares of our common stock. In December 2019, we issued 400,000 shares of Series A preferred stock. The rights of the holders of our Series A preferred stock with respect to dividends, distributions and payments upon liquidation rank senior to similar obligations to our holders of common stock. Holders of the Series A preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends on each share of such stock equal to 6% per annum on the liquidation preference of $100. The dividends on the Series A preferred stock are cumulative and non-compounding and must be paid before we pay any dividends on the common stock.

Further, the holders of the Series A preferred stock have the right to require us to purchase outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock for an amount equal to $100 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. This redemption right could expose us to a liquidity risk if we do not have sufficient cash resources at hand or are not able to find financing on sufficiently attractive terms to comply with our obligations to repurchase the Series A preferred stock upon exercise of such redemption right.

In June and July 2021, we issued 3,188,533 shares of Series B preferred stock, for net proceeds of approximately $76.5 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, but before deducting expenses and the structuring fee. Additionally, the Company has in the past, and may in the future, issue additional shares of Series B preferred stock pursuant to our "at-the-market" offering program. The rights of the holders of our Series B preferred stock with respect to dividends, distributions and payments upon liquidation rank junior to similar obligations to our holders of Series A preferred stock and senior to similar obligations to our holders of common stock. Holders of the Series B preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends on each share of such stock equal to 7.625% per annum on the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. The dividends on the Series B preferred stock are cumulative and non-compounding and must be paid before we pay any dividends on the common stock.

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or the winding up of our affairs, the holders of our Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock have the right to receive a liquidation preference entitling them to be paid out of our assets generally available for distribution to our equity holders and before any payment may be made to holders of our common stock.

Our obligations to the holders of Series A preferred stock and Series B
