9. EQUITY
General—The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by stockholders, including one vote per nominee in the election of the Board. Our charter does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
At-the-Market Offering (“ATM”)—On February 10, 2022, we and the Operating Partnership entered into a sales agreement relating to the potential sale of shares of common stock pursuant to a continuous offering program. In accordance with the terms of the sales agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million from time to time through our sales agents, or, if applicable, as forward sellers. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we issued 0.8 million shares of our common stock under the ATM program for net proceeds of $26.2 million, after approximately $0.3 million in commissions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we issued 2.6 million shares of our common stock under the ATM program for net proceeds of $89.2 million, after approximately $0.9 million in commissions. As of September 30, 2022, $159.9 million of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM program.
Reverse Stock Split—On July 2, 2021, we effected a one-for-three reverse stock split. Concurrent with the reverse split, the Operating Partnership enacted a one-for-three reverse split of its outstanding OP units. Neither the number of authorized shares nor the par value of the common stock were impacted. As a result of the reverse split, every three shares of our common stock or OP units were automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of common stock or OP unit rounded to the nearest 1/100th share. The reverse stock split impacted all common stock and OP units proportionately and had no impact on any stockholder’s percentage ownership of common stock.
Class B Common Stock—On June 18, 2021, our stockholders approved Articles of Amendment that effected the Recapitalization, wherein each share of our common stock outstanding at the time the amendment became effective was converted into one share of a newly created class of Class B common stock.
Our Class B common stock was identical to our common stock, except that it was not listed on a national securities exchange. Per the terms of the Recapitalization, on January 18, 2022, each share of our Class B common stock automatically converted into one share of our listed common stock.
On May 5, 2022, we filed Articles Supplementary to our charter with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation in order to reclassify and designate all of the 350 million authorized shares of our Class B common stock, $0.01 par value per share, all of which were unissued at such time, as shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share. We no longer have Class B common stock authorized for issue.
Underwritten IPO—On July 19, 2021, we completed an underwritten IPO and issued 17.0 million shares of common stock at an offering price to the public of $28.00 per share. We used a portion of the net proceeds to reduce our leverage and used the remaining amount to fund external growth with property acquisitions and for other general corporate uses. As part of the underwritten IPO, underwriters were granted an option exercisable within 30 days from July 14, 2021 to purchase up to an additional 2.6 million shares of common stock at the underwritten IPO price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. On July 29, 2021, the underwriters exercised their option. The underwritten IPO, including the underwriters’ overallotment election, resulted in gross proceeds of $547.4 million.
Distributions—Distributions paid to stockholders and OP unit holders of record subsequent to September 30, 2022 were as follows (dollars in thousands, excluding per share amounts):

October10/17/202211/1/20220.0933 12,202 
On November 2, 2022, our Board authorized a distribution for November and December 2022, as well as January 2023, of $0.0933 per share to the stockholders of record at the close of business on November 15, 2022, December 15, 2022, and January 17, 2023, respectively. OP unit holders will receive distributions at the same rate as common stockholders, subject to certain withholdings.
Convertible Noncontrolling Interests—As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had approximately 14.0 million and 13.4 million outstanding OP units, respectively. Additionally, certain of our outstanding restricted share and performance share awards will result in the issuance of OP units upon vesting in future periods.
Under the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, OP unit holders may elect to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP units. The Operating Partnership controls the form of the redemption, and may elect to redeem OP units for shares of our common stock, provided that the OP units have been outstanding for at least one year, or for cash. As the form of redemption for OP units is within our control, the OP units outstanding as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are classified as Noncontrolling Interests within permanent equity on our consolidated balance sheets.
On January 18, 2022, we issued approximately 1.6 million OP units in full settlement of the earn-out liability (see note 12).
The table below is a summary of our OP unit activity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars and shares in thousands):

Dividend Reinvestment Plan and Share Repurchase Programs—On August 4, 2021, as a result of our underwritten IPO, our Board approved the termination of the DRIP and the original share repurchase program.
On August 3, 2022, our Board approved a new share repurchase program of up to $250.0 million of common stock. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or particular number of shares. No share repurchases have been made to date under this program.
