Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024

#### Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

#### Note 14 - Earnings Per Share and Unit, page F-37
1. We note your disclosure on page F-22 that you calculate the effect of the

3.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2029 (the "Notes") on your dilutive earnings

per common share and per common unit using the if-converted method. Please clarify

for us if the Notes were dilutive or anti-dilutive for 2024. In addition, with respect to

the Notes, please tell us how your earnings per share and unit disclosure is consistent

#### with ASC 260-10-50-1.
Company Response: The Notes were anti-dilutive for 2024. Disclosure of the key terms and conditions of the Notes are included in Note 5 – Debt.

In future filings, we will include a disclosure in our Earnings Per Share and Unit footnote clarifying that potentially issuable shares relating to the Notes were excluded from diluted EPS and EPU calculations for all periods in 2024, because their impact was anti-dilutive.

If you have any further questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at 301-998-8232.

Thank you for your consideration in these matters.

Sincerely,

/s/ Daniel Guglielmone
