The U.S. government announced a comprehensive set of tariffs in the second quarter of 2025. Since then, the U.S. government has paused implementation for some of these tariffs. Although certain tariffs have gone into effect, the timing and scope of other tariffs is still currently uncertain. Such tariffs could impact our results of operations by increasing the costs of various goods, including construction materials. The impact of such tariffs is subject to uncertainties regarding the timing of their implementation, the magnitude of such tariffs and possible exemption for certain goods, among other unknowns.

Current wording

The U.S. government announced a comprehensive set of tariffs in the second quarter of 2025. Following the pause of certain of these tariffs, the majority of the previously announced tariffs have been implemented. The U.S. government has indicated that it could impose additional tariffs on particular countries and impose global tariffs on certain goods. Such tariffs could impact our results of operations by increasing the costs of various goods, including construction materials. Management is actively engaged with vendors and business partners to reduce financial risks of tariffs; however, the impact of such tariffs is subject to uncertainties regarding the timing of their implementation, the magnitude of such tariffs and possible exemption for certain goods, among other unknowns.

On October 15, 2021, a lawsuit (the “Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit”) was filed by a litigation subtrust formed in connection with Highland’s bankruptcy against various persons and entities, including our Sponsor and James Dondero. On March 24, 2023, the litigation trustee filed a motion for leave to stay the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit, which was granted by the bankruptcy court on April 4, 2023. Per the court’s order, the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit is stayed until any party provides 30 days’ notice of the intent to resume the adversary proceeding, with all pending deadlines extended for a period of time commensurate with the length of the stay. As of the date of this filing, the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit continues to be stayed. On February 8, 2023, UBS Securities LLC and UBS AG London (collectively, “UBS”) filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York related to a default that occurred in 2009 on a warehouse facility between UBS and funds affiliated with Highland. The lawsuit makes claims against several persons and entities, including Mr. Dondero, the President of our Sponsor, seeking to collect on $1.3 billion in judgments UBS obtained against entities that were managed indirectly by Highland (the “UBS Lawsuit”). On March 7, 2023, the matter was removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On April 6, 2023, UBS moved to have the case remanded to New York state court. The federal court remanded the state-law causes of action and retained and stayed the federal cause of action. On February 26, 2024, several of the respondents, including Mr. Dondero, filed motions in state court to dismiss the UBS Lawsuit on various grounds. A hearing was held on July 8, 2024. The court dismissed the claims against one respondent, CLO HoldCo, Ltd., for lack of personal jurisdiction in a July 12, 2024 order. On March 26, 2025, the court entered an order denying the remaining motions to dismiss and directed the respondents to file an answer to the UBS Lawsuit within 20 days, which they did. Mr. Dondero is appealing the denial of the motion to dismiss to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York. Neither the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit nor the UBS Lawsuit include claims related to our business or our assets or operations. Our Sponsor and Mr. Dondero have informed us they believe the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit has no merit, and Mr. Dondero has informed us he believes the UBS Lawsuit has no merit; we have been advised that the defendants named in each of the lawsuits intend to vigorously defend against the claims. We do not expect the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit or the UBS Lawsuit will have a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The court dismissed the claims against one respondent, CLO HoldCo, Ltd., for lack of personal jurisdiction in a July 12, 2024 order. On March 26, 2025, the court entered an order denying the remaining motions to dismiss and directed the respondents to file an answer to the UBS Lawsuit within 20 days, which they did. Mr. Dondero is appealing the denial of the motion to dismiss to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York. Neither the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit nor the UBS Lawsuit include claims related to our business or our assets or operations. Our Sponsor and Mr. Dondero have informed us they believe the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit has no merit, and Mr. Dondero has informed us he believes the UBS Lawsuit has no merit; we have been advised that the defendants named in each of the lawsuits intend to vigorously defend against the claims.
