Rhea-AI Filing Summary

BERNSTEIN KENNETH F reported acquisition or exercise transactions in this Form 4 filing.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST President and CEO Kenneth F. Bernstein received a grant of 223,146 long-term incentive partnership units (LTIP Units) in Acadia Realty Limited Partnership at a price of $0.00 per unit. Following this award, his directly held derivative equity stake reported as LTIP Units totals 3,133,252 units.

The LTIP Units are exchangeable on a 1:1 basis into common partnership units of Acadia Realty Limited Partnership, which are in turn exchangeable on a 1:1 basis for common shares of beneficial interest of ACADIA REALTY TRUST, with no expiration date on these conversions.

The 223,146 LTIP Units vest in equal amounts on January 6, 2027 and on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of that date, so long as Mr. Bernstein remains employed on each vesting date, and are subject to a post-vesting two-year holding period. The figure does not include LTIP Units granted under the company’s outperformance plan, whose vesting depends on relative total shareholder return versus a peer group and on the company’s same-property income performance.
