(1) The 2021 performance participation allocation in the amount of $81.2 million became payable on December 31, 2021, and was issued as 6,494,463 Class I OP Units in January 2022 to AIREIT Incentive Fee LP (the “Special Unit Holder”). At the direction of the Advisor, and in light of our Former Sponsor having been the holder of a separate series of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership with special distribution rights (the “Special Units”) for the first six months of 2021, the Special Unit Holder designated 1,610,730 of these Class I OP Units to an entity owned indirectly by our Chairman, Mr. Zucker, and 1,610,730 of these Class I OP Units to an entity owned indirectly by a member of our Former Sponsor. The Special Unit Holder transferred 3,273,003 Class I OP Units to the Advisor thereafter. The 2020 performance participation allocation in the amount of $9.6 million became payable to the Former Sponsor, as the former holder of the Special Units, on December 31, 2020. At the Former Advisor’s election, it was paid in the form of Class I OP units valued at $9.6 million (based on the NAV per unit as of December 31, 2020), which were issued to the Former Sponsor in January 2021 and subsequently transferred to its members or their affiliates.

(2) At the request of the Advisor, the Operating Partnership redeemed all Class I OP Units issued to the Advisor in January 2022 for $40.9 million.
