Most of these OP Units are subject to registration rights agreements covering shares equivalent to the number of OP Units held by the holder if the Company elects to settle in its common shares. The OP Units are classified on the Company’s balance sheet as Non-Controlling Interests. Preferred Shares The Company’s preferred shares outstanding are as follows (in thousands):
