Redeemable common limited partnership units totaling 1,479,799 at both September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computations because they are not dilutive. Unvested restricted shares are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, earnings representing nonforfeitable dividends as noted in the table above were allocated to the unvested restricted shares issued to the Company’s executives and other employees under the Company's shareholder-approved long-term incentive plan. Common and Preferred Shares On September 12, 2017, the Parent Company declared a distribution of $0.16 per common share, totaling $28.4 million, which was paid on October 18, 2017 to shareholders of record as of October 4, 2017. On April 11, 2017, the Parent Company redeemed all of its outstanding 4,000,000 Series E Preferred Shares at an aggregate redemption price of $25.51 per share, which includes $2.0 million of dividends accrued through the redemption date. The redemption was funded with existing cash balances on hand. Also on April 11, 2017, the Parent Company recognized a $3.2 million charge related to the underwriting discount and related expenses incurred at issuance of the Series E Preferred Shares on April 11, 2012. This charge is included in the earnings per share calculations above, as well as within the Parent Company’s consolidated income statements as a reduction in net income to arrive at net income attributable to common shareholders under the caption “Preferred share redemption charge.” There were no comparable charges for the prior year.
