Preferred Stock of the Parent Company
Issuances:
On February 16, 2012, the Parent Company issued 10 million shares of 6.625% Series 6 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $25 per share resulting in proceeds of $241.4 million, net of issuance costs, which were subsequently contributed to the Operating Partnership to redeem similar preferred unit interests as further discussed below.
On August 23, 2012, the Parent Company issued 3 million shares of 6.00% Series 7 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $25 per share resulting in proceeds of $72.5 million, net of issuance costs, which were subsequently used to redeem the Company's Series 5 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock as further discussed below.
The Series 6 and 7 preferred shares are perpetual, absent a change in control of the Parent Company, are not convertible into common stock of the Parent Company, and are redeemable at par upon the Company’s election beginning five years after the issuance date. None of the terms of the preferred stock contain any unconditional obligations that would require the Company to redeem the securities at any time or for any purpose.
Redemptions:
On March 31, 2012, the Parent Company redeemed all issued and outstanding shares of its Series 3 and Series 4 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and on September 13, 2012, the Parent Company redeemed all issued and outstanding shares of its Series 5 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. These redemptions resulted in a reduction to net income available to common stockholders through non-cash charges of $7.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively, related to original issuance costs, which are included within the following financial statement line items:

Common Stock of the Parent Company
Issuances:
On August 10, 2012, the Parent Company entered into an at-the-market ("ATM") equity distribution agreement under which the Company may from time to time offer and sell up to $150.0 million of our common stock. The net proceeds are expected to fund potential acquisition opportunities, fund our development or redevelopment activities, repay amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility and/or for general corporate purposes. During the year ended December 31, 2012, 442,786 shares were issued and sold at a weighted average price per share of $49.70 for proceeds of $21.5 million, net of commissions of approximately $331,000 and issuance costs of approximately $135,000. As of December 31, 2012, we had the capacity to issue $128.0 million in common stock under our ATM equity program.
On March 9, 2011, the Parent Company settled its forward sale agreements dated December 4, 2009 (the "Forward Equity Offering") with J.P. Morgan and Wells Fargo Securities by delivering an aggregate 8 million shares of common stock. Upon physical settlement of the Forward Equity Offering, the Company received net proceeds of$215.4 million. The Company used a portion of the proceeds to repay the Line, which had been drawn upon to repay unsecured notes of $161.7 million that matured in January 2011.
Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership
Issuances:
Series 6 and Series 7 preferred unit interests were issued to the Parent Company in relation to the Parent Company's issuance of 6.625% Series 6 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and 6.00% Series 7 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock as discussed above.
Redemptions:
On February 9, 2012, the Operating Partnership purchased all of its issued and outstanding Series D Preferred Units at 3.75% discount to par, resulting in an increase to net income available to common stockholders of $1.0 million, related to the discount offset by the write-off of the original issuance costs. This amount is included in preferred unit loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the parent company's consolidated statements of operations and in preferred unit distributions in the operating partnership's consolidated statement of operations.
