Impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act on the Company and its Stockholders
The discussion under "Federal Income Tax Considerations" in our prospectus dated April 28, 2023, as the same may have been amended or supplemented form time-to-time (the “Prospectus”), is hereby modified to reflect legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Capitalized terms used in this section without being defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them by the Prospectus.
Enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act: On July 4, 2025, legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was enacted into law. Among other changes, the OBBBA included a number of changes to the Code that affect the U.S. federal income tax laws applicable to REITs and their security holders. The most significant of those changes are described below. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the effects of the OBBBA on their investment.
REIT Asset Tests : The OBBBA increases the ownership limit applicable to TRSs for taxable years ending after December 31, 2025. For taxable years ending after December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2025, not more than 20% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more TRSs. For taxable years ending after December 31, 2025, not more than 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more TRSs.
Pass-Through Business Income Tax Rate Lowered through Deduction: The OBBBA permanently extends the provisions allowing individuals and some trusts and estates to deduct up to 20% of “qualified REIT dividends,” which are REIT dividends other than capital gain dividends, dividends designated as eligible for capital gain tax rates and certain other income items discussed under “ Impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on the Company and its Stockholders-Pass-Through Business Income Tax Rate Lowered through Deduction .”
Limitations on Interest Deductibility : The OBBBA eases the limitation on the deduction for net interest expense discussed under “ Impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on the Company and its Stockholders-Limitations on Interest Deductibility, ” by modifying the definition of “adjusted taxable income” which is one of the limitations on the deduction. For taxable years beginning after December 21, 2025, adjusted taxable income will again be calculated before any deductions for depreciation, amortization, and depletion.
Revised Individual Tax Rates and Deductions: The OBBBA permanently extends the individual income tax changes discussed under “ Impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on the Company and its Stockholders-Revised Individual Tax rates and Deduction .”
The changes made by the OBBBA are complex and we cannot predict the long-term impact of the OBBBA, other new U.S. federal tax laws, and whether, when and how the OBBBA and other new U.S. federal tax laws will be affected by any administrative and judicial interpretations. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the effects of the OBBBA on their investment.
