Finley pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated as of December 10, 2025 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement").
(2) The percentage of the class was calculated based on shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 10, 2025, which includes (i) 19,348.50 OP Units that became redeemable on January 17, 2025, (ii) 208,695.5 OP Units that became redeemable on March 28, 2025, (iii) 160,000 OP Units that became redeemable on October 11, 2025, (iv) 14,546.97 OP Units that will become redeemable as of January 15, 2026, (v) 209,600 OP Units that will become redeemable as of January 24, 2026 and (vi) 251,600 OP Units that will become redeemable as of February 21, 2026.
