"holders of its units of beneficial interest of $0.095378 per unit"
Units of beneficial interest are pieces of ownership in a trust, fund, or pooled investment that give the holder a right to a share of the assets and income without holding the underlying property directly. Think of them as slices of a pie that entitle you to future slices of profit or distributions; investors care because these units determine how returns, risks, voting rights, and tax treatment are allocated and how easily you can buy or sell your stake.
