Including all dividends declared to date, including the first
quarter 2023 regular monthly dividend and the December 2022 supplemental dividend, Main Street
will have paid $35.80 per share in
cumulative cash dividends since its October
2007 initial public offering at $15.00 per share.
The final determination of the tax attributes for dividends each
year are made after the close of the tax year. The final tax
attributes for 2022 and 2023 dividends are currently expected to
include a combination of ordinary taxable income and qualified
dividends and may include capital gains and return of capital.
Main Street maintains a dividend reinvestment and direct stock
purchase plan (the "Plan"). The dividend reinvestment feature
of the Plan (the "DRIP") provides for the reinvestment of dividends
on behalf of Main Street's registered stockholders who hold their
shares with Main Street's transfer agent and registrar, American
Stock Transfer and Trust Company, or certain brokerage firms that
have elected to participate in the DRIP. Under the DRIP, if
Main Street declares a dividend, registered stockholders who have
not "opted out" of the DRIP by the dividend record date will have
their dividend automatically reinvested into additional shares of
Main Street common stock. The direct stock purchase feature
of the Plan (the "DSPP") provides investors with a convenient and
economical method to purchase shares of Main Street common
stock. More information about the Plan (including the DSPP
prospectus) can be found on the Main Street website
(https://ir.mainstcapital.com/dividend-reinvestment-and-direct-stock-purchase-plan).
