See Note 7 for information regarding equity issuances related to share-based compensation.

Common Share Repurchases:

On March 1, 2021, our Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to $150.0 million of our outstanding common shares through June 30, 2022. We did not repurchase any common shares under our common share repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, certain of our employees and former employees surrendered 244,029 and 183,466 common shares owned by them, respectively, to satisfy their statutory tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of such common shares pursuant to our equity compensation plans.

Common Share and Unit Distribution:

In February 2021, the number of earned awards for recipients of the Company’s restricted stock units granted in January 2018 was determined. Pursuant to the terms of such awards, we paid a one-time catch-up cash distribution to these recipients in the aggregate amount of $6.0 million for distributions to common shareholders declared by our Board of Trustees during such awards' performance measurement period.
