In connection with the commencement of the Tender Offer, the Company expects to allow stockholders to tender all or a portion of their shares of Common Stock, but if the Tender Offer is oversubscribed, shares of Common Stock would be accepted on a pro rata basis. The Company anticipates funding the Tender Offer and all related fees and expenses with cash on the Company&#8217;s balance sheet and/or availability under the Company&#8217;s revolving credit facility. If the Company commences the Tender Offer, the full details will be included in an offer to purchase, letter of transmittal and related materials which will become available to stockholders promptly following commencement of the Tender Offer and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;) in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Item 3.03    Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.03    Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On May 23, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") approved of Articles Supplementary (the "Articles Supplementary") to reclassify authorized but unissued shares of the Company's Class T common stock, $0.01 par value per share, Class I common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and Class T2 common stock, $0.01 par value per share, into Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Class A Common Stock"), to be effective at 9:31 a.m. on June 13, 2024.
Also on May 23, 2024, the Board approved of Articles of Amendment (the "Articles of Amendment") to rename and designate Class A Common Stock as "Common Stock", to be effective at 9:32 a.m. on June 13, 2024. The Articles of Amendment change all references to Class A Common Stock in the Company's Third Articles of Amendment and Restatement to "Common Stock."
The Articles Supplementary and Articles of Amendment will be filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland prior to each of their respective effective dates. If the Board determines after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K to delay or cancel the NYSE Listing (as defined below), the Articles Supplementary and/or Articles of Amendment may be withdrawn prior to effectiveness.
The foregoing description of the Articles Supplementary and Articles of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles Supplementary and Articles of Amendment, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01    Other Events.
As previously disclosed on April 8, 2024, the Board previously authorized the Company to pursue a listing of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the symbol "SILA" (the "NYSE Listing").
In conjunction with the anticipated NYSE Listing and in order to provide liquidity to the stockholders of the Company and help stabilize the share price of the Company's Common Stock after the NYSE Listing, the Company also expects to commence a modified "Dutch Auction" tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase up to $50 million in value of shares of its outstanding Common Stock, at a price specified by tendering stockholders within a to-be-determined specified price range. In connection with the commencement of the Tender Offer, the Company expects to allow stockholders to tender all or a portion of their shares of Common Stock, but if the Tender Offer is oversubscribed, shares of Common Stock would be accepted on a pro rata basis. The Company anticipates funding the Tender Offer and all related fees and expenses with cash on the Company's balance sheet and/or availability under the Company's revolving credit facility. If the Company commences the Tender Offer, the full details will be included in an offer to purchase, letter of transmittal and related materials which will become available to stockholders promptly following commencement of the Tender Offer and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in accordance with applicable securities laws. Until such time as the Company commences the Tender Offer, there can be no assurances that the Company will in fact commence the Tender Offer or any other tender offer for the Company's shares of Common Stock. The potential NYSE Listing and launch of the Tender Offer is expected to occur on June 13, 2024.
The price at which the Common Stock may list on the NYSE may be different and could be significantly lower or higher than the Company's estimated per share net asset value ("NAV") of $29.92 as of October 31, 2023 (retroactively adjusted to reflect the one-for-four reverse stock split effective May 1, 2024), due to, among other things, the methodology used to estimate the NAV was based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Further, different parties using different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated per share value, which could be significantly different from the Company's estimated per share value. As such, the Company's NAV of $29.92 as of October 31, 2023 may not be representative of what price the shares would trade for after the Common Stock is listed on the NYSE. For a more detailed description of the valuation method and process used to estimate the NAV or the Company's one-for-four reverse stock split, please see the Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 19, 2023 and April 8, 2024, respectively.
On May 29, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing, among other things, the Company's anticipated date of the NYSE Listing and its intention to pursue the related Tender Offer. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company previously disclosed in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 8, 2024, that the Board approved and authorized a daily distribution to the Company's stockholders for each day of the period commencing on June 1, 2024 and ending June 30, 2024 (the "Prior Distribution"). In anticipation of the NYSE Listing, on May 28, 2024, the Board cancelled the Prior Distribution and approved a new distribution (the "New Distribution") to the Company's shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 1, 2024 (the "Record Date"). The New Distribution, in an amount of $0.1333 per share, representing an annualized amount of $1.60 per share, is payable on July 15, 2024 to the Company's stockholders of record as of the Record Date

Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations, including the Company's ability to meet and then maintain the listing requirements of the NYSE and any material market changes and trends that could affect (i) the Company's decision or ability to consummate the NYSE Listing and related Tender Offer, (ii) the size or pricing of the Tender Offer or (iii) the price at which the Common Stock may list and trade for on the NYSE, and you should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which are, in some cases, beyond the Company's control and could materially affect the Company's results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance or future achievements or events.
