ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On April 10, 2025, we announced that our Board of Trustees had approved a new common share repurchase program, under which we may purchase up to $300.0 million of our outstanding common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The specific timing and amount of common share repurchases, if any, will depend on a number of factors, including prevailing share prices, trading volume and general market conditions, along with our working capital requirements, cash flow, and other factors. The program does not require us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of common shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of September 30, 2025, no shares have been repurchased through the program.

Under the terms of various partnership agreements of certain of our affiliated limited partnerships, the interest of limited partners in those limited partnerships may be redeemed, subject to certain conditions, for cash or common shares, at our option. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we redeemed 2,292 downREIT operating partnership units for cash.

From time to time, we could be deemed to have repurchased shares as a result of shares withheld for tax purposes upon a stock

compensation related vesting event.
