10. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

 

Preferred Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is authorized to fix the number of shares of any series of the Preferred Stock, to determine the designation of any such series, and to determine or alter the rights granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock including the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price, and liquidation preference. As of  March 31, 2021 and  December 31, 2020, no Preferred Stock remained issued or outstanding.

 

Common Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of Series A Common Stock, 1,000 shares of Series B Common Stock, and 9,000,000 shares of Series C Common Stock (collectively, the "Common Stock") each with $0.01 par value. Each class of Common Stock has identical rights, preferences, terms and conditions except that the holders of Series B Common Stock are not entitled to receive any portion of Company assets in the event of the Company's liquidation. No shares of Series B or Series C Common Stock have been issued. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote. Shares of our Common Stock are not subject to redemption and do not have any preference, conversion, exchange or preemptive rights. The articles of incorporation contain a restriction on ownership of the Common Stock that prevents one person from owning more than 9.8% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Cash Dividends. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company paid a cash dividend of approximately $1.0 million or $0.101 per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 the Company paid no cash dividend.

 

Partnership Interests. Through the Company, its subsidiaries and its partnerships, we own 13 commercial properties in fee interest, two of which we own partial interests in through our holdings in various affiliates in which we serve as general partner, member and/or manager. Each of the limited partnerships is referred to as a “DownREIT.” In each DownREIT, we have the right, through put and call options, to require our co-investors to exchange their interests for shares of our Common Stock at a stated price after a defined period (generally five years from the date they first invested in the entity’s real property), the occurrence of a specified event or a combination thereof. The Company is a limited partner in four partnerships and sole stockholder in one corporation, which entities purchase and leaseback model homes from homebuilders.

 

Dividend Reinvestment Plan. The Company adopted a distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) that allowed stockholders to have dividends and other distributions otherwise distributable to them invested in additional shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company registered 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price per share used in the past was 95% of the price the Company sold its shares, or $19.00 per share. No sales commission or dealer manager fees were paid on shares sold through the DRIP. The Company may amend, suspend or terminate the DRIP at any time. Any such amendment, suspension or termination is effective upon a designated dividend record date and notice of such amendment, suspension or termination is sent to all participants at least thirty (30) days prior to such record date. The DRIP became effective on January 23, 2012, was suspended on December 7, 2018 and adopted on October 6, 2020 in connection with our IPO, and updated to reflect a change in transfer agent and registrar. As of March 31, 2021, approximately $17.4 million or approximately 917,074 shares of common stock have been issued under the DRIP. No shares were issued under the DRIP during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
