Why does this company have class B shares that aren't listed

In light of the recent acquisition I'm looking into the company. Can someone explain why they have class B shares that aren't listed? There are so few of them I'm left wondering why they carry them on the books and didn't close them out when they did there share repurchase.
Oh and be sure to comment on the latest news!

TIA

Interesting they did an $65.1MM equity raise January 8. https://www.stockhouse.com/news/press-releases/2014/01/08/pure-industrial-real-estate-trust-announces-131-4-million-of-property Class B might just have special rights ie. voting. I tried reading the MDA, but couldn't pin it down.  The Cl B's can be converted into Cl A's.

Yea, best I could come up with reading MD&A is they may be the shares issued for insiders to buy with the borrowed funds from the company. Then they convert them to class A ? The only thing I didn't like in the info. Sheet is the shares will be issued regardless if this deal goes through.

Underwriters / deal makers gotta get paid ;), but why waste opportunitiy to get a hold of cash on hand?
