Context

• This was an equity compensation award (not a stock purchase or sale). Profits interest units are a derivative form of equity in the Operating Partnership that can, upon meeting specified conditions, convert into partnership common units and ultimately be redeemed for cash or exchanged for issuer common stock. Such awards are typical for director/executive compensation and do not by themselves indicate a buy/sell signal.
