__________
(a) | Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership are comprised of (i) the limited partners’ 3,365,668 and 2,931,198 Common OP Units at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively; (ii) 188 Series A Preferred OP Units at December 31, 2016 and 2015; (iii) 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units at December 31, 2016; and (iv) 1,996,388 and 1,922,623 LTIP units as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as discussed in Share Incentive Plan (Note 13). Distributions declared for Preferred OP Units are reflected in net income in the table above.
(b) | Noncontrolling interests in partially-owned affiliates comprise third-party interests in Fund I, II, III, IV and V, and Mervyns I and II, and six other subsidiaries.
(c) | During 2016, the Company acquired an additional 8.3% interest in Fund II from a limited partner for $18.4 million, giving the Company an aggregate 28.33% interest. Amount in the table above represents the book value of this transaction.
Preferred OP Units The Series A Preferred OP Units were issued in 1999 in connection with the acquisition of a property, have a stated value of $1,000 per unit, and are entitled to a preferred quarterly distribution of the greater of (i) $22.50 (9% annually) per Series A Preferred OP Unit or (ii) the quarterly distribution attributable to a Series A Preferred OP Unit if such unit was converted into a Common OP Unit. Through December 31, 2016, 1,392 Series A Preferred OP Units were converted into 185,600 Common OP Units and then into Common Shares. The 188 remaining Series A Preferred OP Units are currently convertible into Common OP Units based on the stated value divided by $7.50. Either the Company or the holders can currently call for the conversion of the Series A Preferred OP Units at the lesser of $7.50 or the market price of the Common Shares as of the conversion date. During 2016, the Operating Partnership issued 442,478 Common OP Units and 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units to a third party to acquire Gotham Plaza (Note 4). The Series C Preferred OP Units have a value of $100.00 per unit and are entitled to a preferred quarterly distribution of $0.9375 per unit and are convertible into Common OP Units at a rate based on the share price at the time of conversion. If the share price is below $28.80 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Unit will be convertible into 3.4722 Common OP Units. If the share price is between $28.80 and $35.20 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Units will be convertible a number of Common OP Units equal to $100.00 divided by the closing share price. If the share price is above $35.20 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Units will be convertible into 2.8409 Common OP Units. The Series C Preferred OP Units have a mandatory conversion date of December 31, 2025, at which time all units that have not been converted will automatically be converted into Common OP Units based on the same calculations. During 2015, the Operating Partnership issued approximately 1,600,000 OP units to a third party to acquire real estate.
