Additionally, Mr. Taubman has informed the Company that he intends to elect to exchange up to 90,000 Partnership Units in each of the subsequent five quarterly exchange windows. Were Mr. Taubman to exchange the full 90,000 Partnership Units in each of the successive five periods, such exchanges in aggregate would represent less than 10% of his total economic ownership in the Company.
