RealPage, Inc., et al, Case No. 1:22-cv-12134, United States District Court, District of Massachusetts (“RealPage Litigation”). ​ The first named defendant, RealPage, Inc., is allegedly the developer of a certain software platform known as “AI Revenue Management” (previously known as “YieldStar”).

No class has yet been certified. ​ The Company disputes the allegations made against it and intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit. ​ The named Defendant Property Managers are the following: Greystar Real Estate Partners, LLC; Cushman & Wakefield, Inc.; Lincoln Property Company; Peabody Properties, Inc.; New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership; WinnCompanies LLC and WinnResidential Manager Corp.; UDR, Inc.; SHP Management Corp.; The Related Companies, Inc. and Simpson Property Group, LLLP. ​ Item 6.
