 tax consequences to an investor could be materially different than those described below. Accordingly,
each prospective investor is urged to consult its tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of an investment in a public unit (including
alternative characterizations of a public unit). The balance of this discussion assumes that the characterization of the public units
(and the components thereof) and any allocation of purchase price of a public unit as described above is respected for United States
federal income tax purposes.

U.S. Holders

Taxation of Distributions

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will be required to include in gross income, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes, as dividends the amount of any distribution of cash or other property paid on our public shares to the extent the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under United States federal income tax principles).

rates and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to domestic corporations in respect of dividends
received from other domestic corporations. With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, under tax laws currently in effect and subject
to certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction
limitations), dividends generally will be treated as “qualified dividend income” and taxed at the lower applicable long-term
capital gains rate (see “— Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Public Shares”
below) only if our public shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, the Company is not
treated as a PFIC at the time the dividend was paid or in the preceding year and certain other requirements are met (including with respect
