Context These are partnership/derivative units, not immediate open‑market stock purchases or sales. They can be redeemed for cash or converted to Class I‑R common stock beginning Jan 1, 2027 (priced at NAV upon redemption) and are subject to legal and agreement-based limits on redemptions. Receiving OP units as consideration is a non‑cash corporate/partnership transaction and does not by itself indicate an immediate change in market exposure.

Any such redemption of Class I-R OP Units will be priced at the then-current net asset value of such Class I-R OP Units.
