NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
NOTE 5 -     NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

As of June 30, 2011, limited partners of the Operating Partnership other than the Company owned 10,100,000 Common Units representing an approximate 27% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership.  Pursuant to the limited partnership agreement, limited partners other than the Company have redemption rights that will enable them to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their Common Units in exchange for cash, or at the Operating Partnership’s option, shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis.  The number of shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon redemption of Common Units may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events such as share dividends, share subdivisions or combinations.
 
The holders of Common Units have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem part or all of the Common Units for cash based upon the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock at the time of redemption. However, the Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to acquire the Common Units in exchange for its common stock on a one-for-one basis beginning on the first anniversary of completion of the IPO. Based on this assessment, which includes the evaluation of terms in the agreements related to redemption provisions, the Company has classified these Common units as noncontrolling interests as a component of permanent equity on the June 30, 2011 consolidated balance sheet. The share of net loss allocated to these OP units is reported on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the period February 14, 2011 through June 30, 2011 as net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. For the period from February 14, 2011 through June 30, 2011, no OP units were redeemed.
