Shareholders' Equity of MAA | 8. Shareholders’ Equity of MAA As of December 31, 2021, 115,336,876 shares of common stock of MAA and 3,206,118 OP Units (excluding the OP Units held by MAA) were issued and outstanding, representing a total of 118,542,994 common shares and units. As of December 31, 2020, 114,373,727 shares of common stock of MAA and 4,057,657 OP Units (excluding the OP Units held by MAA) were issued and outstanding, representing a total of 118,431,384 common shares and units. Preferred Stock As of December 31, 2021, MAA had one outstanding series of cumulative redeemable preferred stock which has the following characteristics:
Description |  | Outstanding Shares |  |  | Liquidation Preference (1) |  |  | Optional Redemption Date |  | Redemption Price (2) |  |  | Stated Dividend Yield |  | Approximate Dividend Rate |
MAA Series I |  |  | 867,846 |  |  | $ | 50.00 |  |  | 10/1/2026 |  | $ | 50.00 |  |  | 8.50% |  | $ | 4.25 |
(1) The total liquidation preference for the outstanding preferred stock is $43.4 million. (2) The redemption price is the price at which the preferred stock is redeemable, at MAA’s option, for cash. See Note 6 for details of the valuation of the derivative asset related to the redemption feature embedded in the MAA Series I preferred stock. Direct Stock Purchase and Distribution Reinvestment Plan MAA has a Dividend and Distribution Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan, or DRSPP, pursuant to which MAA’s common shareholders have the ability to reinvest all or part of their distributions from MAA into shares of MAA’s common stock and holders of Class A OP Units have the ability to reinvest all or part of their distributions from the Operating Partnership into MAA’s common stock. The DRSPP also provides the opportunity to make optional cash investments in MAA’s common stock of at least $250, but not more than $5,000 in any given month, free of brokerage commissions and charges. MAA, in its absolute discretion, may grant waivers to allow for optional cash payments in excess of $5,000. To fulfill its obligations under the DRSPP, MAA may either issue additional shares of common stock or repurchase common stock in the open market. MAA currently has registered with the SEC the offer and sale of up to 1,906,762 shares of common stock pursuant to the DRSPP. MAA may elect to sell shares under the DRSPP at up to a 5% discount. Shares of MAA’s common stock totaling 6,301 in 2021, 8,259 in 2020 and 16,219 in 2019 were acquired by participants under the DRSPP. MAA did not offer a discount for optional cash purchases in 2021, 2020 or 2019. Equity Forward Sale Agreements In August 2021, MAA entered into two 18-month forward sale agreements with respect to a total of 1.1 million shares of its common stock at an initial forward sale price of $190.56 per share, which price is net of issuance costs. Under the forward sale agreements, the forward sale price is subject to adjustment on a daily basis based on a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread and will be decreased based on amounts related to dividends on MAA’s common stock during the term of the forward sale agreements. No shares had been settled under the forward sale agreements as of December 31, 2021. MAA generally has the ability to determine the dates and method of settlement (i.e., gross physical settlement, net share settlement or cash settlement), subject to certain conditions and the right of the counterparty to accelerate settlement under certain circumstances, provided that settlement under each forward sale agreement must occur by February 2, 2023. MAA currently expects to fully physically settle each forward sale agreement with the relevant forward purchaser on one or more dates specified by MAA on or prior to the maturity date of the particular forward sale agreement, in which case MAA expects to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares underlying the particular forward sale agreement multiplied by the relevant forward sale p rice. The impact of the forward sale agreements was no t dilutive to the Company’s diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021. At-the-Market Share Offering Program In November 2021, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement to establish a new ATM program, replacing MAA’s previous ATM program and allowing MAA to sell shares of its common stock from time to time to or through its sales agents into the existing market at current market prices, and to enter into separate forward sales agreements to or through its forward purchasers. Under its current ATM program, MAA has the authority to issue up to an aggregate of 4.0 million shares of its common stock, at such times to be determined by MAA. MAA has no obligation to issue shares through the ATM program. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, MAA did no t sell any shares of common stock under its ATM program. During the year ended December 31, 2019, MAA sold 146,301 shares of comment stock for net proceeds of $19.6 million through its previous ATM program. As of December 31, 2021, 4.0 million shares remained issuable under the current ATM program.
