ITEM 8.01. Other Events.
On August 11, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of InPoint Commercial Real Estate Income, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) authorized and approved a share repurchase program (the “Series A Preferred Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to the lesser of 1,000,000 shares or $15 million of the outstanding shares of the Company’s 6.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) through December 31, 2022. Under the Series A Preferred Repurchase Program, repurchases of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock may be made at management’s discretion from time to time through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block purchases or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws.
The Board has authorized the Company to enter into written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows a company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading blackout periods or pursuant to insider trading laws. Under any Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, the Company’s third-party broker, subject to Securities and Exchange Commission regulations regarding certain price, market, volume and timing constraints, would have authority to purchase shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the plan. The Company may from time to time enter into Rule 10b5-1 trading plans to facilitate the repurchase of shares of its Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to its Series A Preferred Repurchase Program.
The Company cannot predict when or if it will repurchase any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and there is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that will be repurchased under the Series A Preferred Stock Repurchase Program. Such repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including constraints specified in any Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. The Series A Preferred Repurchase Program may be suspended, extended or terminated by the Company at any time without prior notice. Information regarding repurchases will be available in the Company’s periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.

These statements are not factual or guarantees of future performance, and we caution stockholders not to place undue reliance on them. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to changes in price and volume and the volatility of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock; unexpected alternative requirements with respect to the capital needs of the Company; risks related to blind pool offerings, best efforts offerings, use of short-term financing, borrower defaults, changing interest rates, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly on hospitality and retail properties, including our hotel, and on related mortgage loans and securities, and other risks detailed in the Risk Factors section in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent filings on Form 10-Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and made available on our website.
