still required to meet the criteria in ASC 360-10-45-9 to classify the

                                                        determination that you

                In addition to extending the closing date of the sale during
the one-year period that
              followed September 26, 2019, specifically identify actions
initiated by you to respond
              to the changes in circumstances and allow you to continue to
conclude that the sale
              was probable. In chronologic order explain how the terms and
conditions of the sale
              evolved through amendments dated November 30, 2019, December 26,
2019, March
              31, 2020, June 30, 2020, October 1, 2020, and December 30, 2020.
Tell us if there
              were additional amendments during 2021 to support the asset group
  s continued held-
              for sale classification.

                Your response states that you expect to sell the properties by
June 30, 2022 in
              accordance with the current agreements. Tell us the precise
events that transpired
              and lead you to believe a sale on that date is probable to occur
when you assessed the
              asset group   s presentation as of September 30, 2021. For
example, tell us how you
              confirmed and verified that the buyer has secured financing to
complete the sale as of
              that date.

        You may contact Brian McAllister at (202) 551-3341 or Craig Arakawa at
