(1) Treasury Regulation § 1.199A-3(c)(2)(ii) requires that stockholders hold their REIT shares for more than 45 days during the 91-day period beginning on the date that is 45 days before the date on which such shares become ex-dividend with respect to such dividend in order for the dividends to be treated as Section 199A Dividends. Stockholders should consult with their tax advisors to determine whether this requirement affects any portion of the dividends included in Box 5. |
||||||||||||||
(2) These amounts are a subset of, and included in, the 2022 ordinary dividend amounts (Box 1a). |
||||||||||||||
(3) The entire January 6, 2022 distribution (which was declared and had a record date in the fourth quarter of 2021) is treated as a 2022 distribution for federal income tax purposes. |
||||||||||||||
(4) Pursuant to IRC Section 857(b)(9), cash distributions paid on January 5, 2023 with a record date of December 22, 2022 are treated as received by stockholders on December 22, 2022 to the extent of 2022 earnings and profits. As the Company’s aggregate 2022 cash distributions exceeded its 2022 earnings and profits, a portion of the January 2023 cash distribution declared in the fourth quarter of 2022 will be treated as a 2023 distribution for federal income tax purposes and are not included on the 2022 Form 1099. If you were a stockholder of record as of December 22, 2022, $0.1087 is reported on your 2022 Form 1099 and $0.2813 will be reported on your 2023 Form 1099. |
