EQUITY [Abstract]
EQUITY	NOTE 4 • EQUITY ATM. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2014, we and our Operating Partnership entered into an At the Market sales agreement (“ATM”) with Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated as sales agent, pursuant to which we may from time to time sell our Common Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million. The shares would be issued pursuant to our currently-effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR. To date, we have not issued any shares under the ATM. Equity Awards. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, we issued approximately 220,000 Common Shares, net of withholding, with a total grant-date value of approximately $1.6 million, under our 2008 Incentive Award Plan, for executive officer and trustee share-based compensation for fiscal year 2015 performance. Of these shares, approximately 108,000 are restricted, and will vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant date (i.e., on April 30, 2016), provided the recipient is still employed with us, and subject to the terms and conditions of our long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”). During the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, we issued approximately 204,000 Common Shares, with a total grant-date value of approximately $1.9 million, under the our 2008 Incentive Award Plan, for executive officer and trustee share-based compensation for fiscal year 2014 performance. Share Repurchase Program. In August 2015, we publicly announced the share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Trustees to repurchase up to $50 million of our Common Shares over a one year period. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, we repurchased and retired approximately 1.8 million Common Shares for an aggregate cost of approximately $13.1 million, including commissions, at an average price per share of $7.30. During the nine months ended January 31, 2016, we repurchased and retired approximately 4.6 million Common Shares for an aggregate cost of approximately $35.0 million, including commissions, at an average price per share of $7.54. DRIP. We have implemented a Distribution Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (“DRIP”), which provides our common shareholders and the unitholders of the Operating Partnership an opportunity to invest their cash distributions in Common Shares and to purchase additional Common Shares through voluntary cash contributions. A DRIP participant cannot purchase additional Common Shares in excess of $10,000 per month, unless waived by us. We did not issue any waivers during the three months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015. We did not issue any waivers during the nine months ended January 31, 2016. During the nine months ended January 31, 2015, DRIP participants purchased approximately 926,000 additional Common Shares at an average price of $8.64 per share pursuant to waivers granted by us, for total net proceeds of $8.0 million. As permitted under the DRIP, starting on October 1, 2015, we changed the source from which Common Shares will be purchased under the DRIP to open market transactions, which are not eligible for purchase price discounts. During the three months ended January 31, 2016, no shares were issued under the DRIP. During the three months ended January 31, 2015, 2.0 million Common Shares with a total value included in equity of $16.1 million, and an average price per share after applicable discounts of $8.06, were issued under the DRIP. During the nine months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, approximately 821,000 and 6.2 million Common Shares with a total value included in equity of $5.6 million and $50.9 million, and an average price per share after applicable discounts of $6.85 and $8.20, respectively, were issued under the DRIP. Exchange Rights. Pursuant to Exchange Rights, during the three months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, approximately 26,800 Units and 333,000 Units were exchanged for Common Shares, with a total value of approximately $125,000 and $811,000 included in equity. During the nine months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, approximately 180,600 Units and 6.7 million Units were exchanged for Common Shares, with a total value of approximately $981,000 and $38.5 million included in equity.
