Non-controlling Interests

Common Units in the Operating Partnership

Common units of the operating partnership and shares of common stock of the Company have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of the operating partnership. Investors who own common units have the right to cause the operating partnership to repurchase any or all of their common units for cash at a value equal to the then-current market value of one share of common stock. However, in lieu of such payment of cash, the Company may, at its election, issue shares of its common stock in exchange for such common units on a one-for-one basis.

Performance Units in the Operating Partnership

Performance units are partnership interests in the operating partnership. Each performance unit awarded will be deemed equivalent to an award of one share of common stock under the 2010 Plan, reducing the availability for other equity awards on a one-for-one basis. Under the terms of the performance units, the operating partnership will revalue its assets for tax purposes upon the occurrence of certain specified events and any increase in valuation from the time of grant until such event will be allocated first to the holders of performance units to equalize the capital accounts of such holders with the capital accounts of common unitholders. Subject to any agreed upon exceptions, once vested and having achieved parity with common unitholders, performance units are convertible into common units in the operating partnership on a one-for-one basis.

Ownership Interest in the Operating Partnership

The following table summarizes the ownership interest in the operating partnership, excluding unvested restricted units and unvested restricted performance units, as of:

Share Repurchase Program

The Company is authorized to repurchase shares of its common stock up to a total of $250.0 million of its common stock under the share repurchase program. No repurchases were made under the program during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Since commencement of the program, a cumulative total of $176.2 million has been repurchased. Share repurchases are accounted for on the trade date. The Company may make repurchases under the program at any time in its discretion, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors.

Accelerated Share Repurchase Agreements

On February 25, 2022, the Company entered into an uncollared accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement to purchase $100 million of its outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company made an initial payment of $100 million and received an initial delivery of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock representing 85% of the total $100 million agreement based on the closing price of our common stock on the transaction date. Final settlement of the agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price during the measurement period, less a negotiated discount, and is expected in the third quarter 2022.

On February 25, 2022, the Company entered into a collared ASR agreement to purchase $100 million of its outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company made an initial payment of $100 million and received an initial delivery of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock based on an estimated cap price calculated using the daily volume-weighted average price during an initial hedge period. Final settlement of the agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price during the measurement period, subject to a floor and cap and less a negotiated discount, and is expected in the third quarter 2022.

At final settlement, the counterparty may be obligated to deliver additional shares of common stock to the Company or the Company may be obligated to make delivery of shares of common stock or a cash payment to the counterparty, at the Company’s option. Because of this option to settle in cash or net shares, the forward sale component of the ASR agreements is classified as equity.

Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock

Series C cumulative redeemable preferred stock relates to the 17,000,000 shares of our Series C preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. Holders of Series C preferred stock, when and as authorized by the board of directors of the Company, are entitled to cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 4.750% per annum of the $25.00 per share, equivalent to $1.1875 per annum per share. Dividends are payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of December, March, June and September of each year, beginning on or about March 31, 2022. In addition to other preferential rights, the holders of Series C preferred stock are entitled to receive the liquidation preference, which is $25.00 per share, before the holders of common stock in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company’s affairs. Generally, shares of Series C preferred stock are not redeemable by the Company prior to November 16, 2026. However, upon the occurrence of a change of control, holders of the Series C preferred stock will have the right, (unless the Company has elected to redeem the Series C preferred stock) to convert into a specified number of shares of common stock.

Taxability of Dividends

Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition, compensation expense and the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation.
