The Funds declare a set of monthly distributions each quarter in
amounts closely tied to the respective Fund's recent average
monthly net income. As a result, the monthly distribution amounts
for the Funds typically vary quarter-to-quarter, and shareholders
of any Fund should not expect that Fund to continue to pay
distributions in the same amounts shown above. The dynamic
distribution strategy provides Blackstone
Credit with greater flexibility to maintain portfolio credit
quality in varying market conditions. In addition, the dynamic
distribution strategy reduces the need to retain reserves from net
investment income to support the stability of future
distributions.
A portion of each distribution may be treated as paid from
sources other than net investment income, including but not limited
to short-term capital gain, long-term capital gain, or return of
capital. The final determination of the source and tax
characteristics of these distributions will depend upon each Fund's
investment experience during its fiscal year and will be made after
the Fund's year end. Each Fund will send to investors a Form
1099-DIV for the calendar year that will define how to report these
distributions for federal income tax purposes.
