As a result of this process and following careful deliberation, on September 9, 2015, the Audit Committee approved the selection of Deloitte &amp; Touche LLP (&#8220;Deloitte&#8221;) to serve as the Company&#8217;s and Operating Partnership&#8217;s independent registered public accounting firm for the  fiscal year ending December 31, 2016, and dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (&#8220;PwC&#8221;) effective upon the issuance by PwC of their reports on the Company&#8217;s consolidated financial statements and the Operating Partnership&#8217;s consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2015 and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 for the Company and the Operating Partnership to be included in the related Annual Report on Form 10-K. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">PwC&#8217;s audit reports on the Company&#8217;s and Operating Partnership&#8217;s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle. The audit reports of PwC on the Company&#8217;s and Operating Partnership&#8217;s effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion, nor were they qualified or modified.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:0px;text-align:left;padding-left:1px;text-indent:-2px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, and the subsequent interim periods through September 9, 2015, for the Company and the Operating Partnership, there were (i) no disagreements  with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, any of which, if not resolved to PwC&#8217;s satisfaction, would have caused PwC to make reference thereto in their reports, and (ii) no &#8220;reportable events&#8221; within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Company and Operating Partnership provided PwC with a copy of disclosures it is making in this Form 8-K and requested that PwC furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein.
