     On May 27, 2009, we announced that we have commenced a public offering of 30,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (the “Offering”). We also announced that we will grant the underwriters of the Offering an option for 30 days to purchase up to 4,500,000 additional common shares to cover overallotments, if any. Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. will serve as the joint book-running managers for the Offering. We plan to use the net proceeds from the Offering to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
