As reported by the Company in its Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2017, the Company was unable to file its Form 10-K within the extension period because it needs additional time to complete its review of the appropriate accounting treatment for redeemable non-controlling interests of its acquired partnerships. </div>

The Company continues to work diligently to complete the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in order to be in a position to file the Form 10-K with the SEC as soon as possible in April. If the Company fails to file the Form 10-K before the NYSE&#8217;s six-month compliance deadline, the NYSE may grant, at its sole discretion, an extension of up to six additional months for the Company to regain compliance, depending on the specific circumstances. </div>
