This statement is being filed pursuant to 13d-1(d).
Item 4. Ownership.
The Company had 18,448,791 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of
December 31, 2005.
Regarding the beneficial ownership of each reporting person, reference
is made to Item 4. of the cover page addendum for each reporting person
and to Item 8., below. The beneficial ownership of shares of Common
Stock by any reporting person is based on such reporting person's right
to exchange O.P. Units for shares of Common Stock upon certain
conditions under an exchange rights agreement with the Company.
The reporting persons constitute a group because under the Company's
charter and certain agreements among the Company, the reporting persons
and other parties, the ownership interests of the reporting persons
taking into account the shares of the Common Stock that would be issued
upon the exchange of O.P. Units for shares of Common Stock, are
aggregated in determining whether the issuer is subject to certain
restrictions based on such ownership, including:
- the required nomination of two representatives of the reporting
persons to the Company's board of directors
- whether the approval of the reporting person's board
representative of certain actions by the board of directors is
required
- the approval of a sale of substantially all of the assets of the
operating partnerships
- 8 -
In addition, the Company's charter and such agreements limit the number
of shares that can be held at any one time by the reporting persons in
the aggregate to the lesser of 20% of the outstanding Common Stock and
the maximum percentage that individual shareholders can own, directly or
indirectly, under applicable REIT ownership limits contained in the
Internal Revenue Code. Consequently, each of the reporting persons
disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock in excess
of the maximum number of shares that such reporting person currently has
the right to acquire, taking into account these ownership restrictions.
Furthermore, each reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of
shares that could be acquired upon the exchange of O.P. Units as to
which such reporting person has no pecuniary interest.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person.
See responses in Item 4 above and Item 8 below.
Item 7. Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired the
Security Being Reported on by the Parent Holding Company or Control
Person.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Identification and Classification of Members of the Group.
This schedule is filed pursuant to Rule 13d-1(d). The responses to Items
2(a)-(c) identify each of the persons filing this statement. See Exhibit
99.
Item 9. Notice of Dissolution of Group.
Not applicable.
