Exhibit 99.1
Non-GAAP Disclosures, page 10
1.We have considered your response to comment 1 and your revised disclosure related to
non-GAAP Earnings Available for Distribution within your most recent earnings release.
Your adjustment for Change in economic basis of investments presents income from your
investments on an alternative basis. This adjustment is inconsistent with Question 100.04
of the Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations on the use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures. Specifically, changing the income recognition appears to be an individually
tailored measurement principle. Please revise your non-GAAP measure to eliminate the
adjustment for Change in economic basis of investments.
