Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. (“ELS”), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and its other consolidated subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”), are referred to herein as “we,” “us,” and “our”. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. We have a unique business model where we own the land which we lease to customers who own manufactured homes and cottages, RVs and/or boats either on a long-term or short-term basis. Our customers may lease individual developed areas (“Sites”) or enter into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays. Our Properties are owned primarily by the Operating Partnership and managed internally by affiliates of the Operating Partnership. ELS is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has exclusive responsibility and discretion in management and control of the Operating Partnership and held a 95.2 % interest as of June 30, 2022. As the general partner with control, ELS is the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidates, the Operating Partnership. Equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which ELS does not have a controlling interest or for variable interest entities in which ELS is not considered the primary beneficiary, but with respect to which it can exercise significant influence over operations and major decisions. Our exposure to losses associated with unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily limited to the carrying value of these investments. Accordingly, distributions from a joint venture in excess of our carrying value are recognized in earnings. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. All adjustments to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are of a normal, recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. Revenues and expenses are subject to seasonal fluctuations and accordingly, quarterly interim results may not be indicative of full year results. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified on our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements to conform with current year presentation. Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Revenue Recognition Our revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites or entering into membership subscriptions. Leases with customers renting our Sites are accounted for as operating leases. The rental income associated with these leases is accounted for in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, and is recognized over the term of the respective lease or the length of a customer’s stay. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. RV and marina Sites are leased to those who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those customers renting marina dry storage slips. Annual Sites are leased on an annual basis, including those Northern Properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months . Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. We do not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“utility recoveries”) from the associated rental income as we meet the practical expedient criteria to combine the lease and non-lease components. We assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental income and the associated utility recoveries are the same and, as our leases qualify as operating leases, we account for and present rental income and utility recoveries as a single component under Rental income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In addition, customers may lease homes that are located in our communities. These leases are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income derived from customers leasing homes is also accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, Leases and is recognized over the term of the respective lease. The allowance for credit losses related to the collectability of lease receivables is presented as a reduction to Rental income. Lease receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. The estimate for credit losses is a result of our ongoing assessments and evaluations of collectability, including historical loss experience, current market conditions and future expectations in forecasting credit losses. 9 Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Annual membership subscriptions and membership upgrade sales are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606 , Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Membership subscriptions provide our customers access to specific Properties for limited stays at a specified group of Properties. Payments are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the one-year period during which access to Sites at certain Properties is provided. Membership subscription receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. Membership upgrades grant certain additional access rights to the customer and require non-refundable upfront payments. The non-refundable upfront payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Financed upgrade sales (also known as contract receivables) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. Income from home sales is recognized when the earnings process is complete. The earnings process is complete when the home has been delivered, the purchaser has accepted the home and title has transferred. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties. Financed home sales (also known as chattel loans) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. (b) Restricted Cash As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, restricted cash consisted of $ 25.8 million and $ 29.3 million, respectively, primarily related to cash reserved for customer deposits and escrows for insurance and real estate taxes. Note 3 – Leases Lessor The leases entered into between the customer and us for rental of a Site are renewable upon the consent of both parties or, in some instances, as provided by statute. Long-term leases that are non-cancelable by the tenants are in effect at certain Properties. Rental rate increases at these Properties are primarily a function of increases in the Consumer Price Index, taking into consideration certain conditions. Additionally, periodic market rate adjustments are made as deemed appropriate. In addition, certain state statutes allow entry into long-term agreements that effectively modify lease terms related to rent amounts and increases over the term of the agreements. The following table presents future minimum rents expected to be received under long-term non-cancelable tenant leases, as well as those leases that are subject to long-term agreements governing rent payments and increases: (amounts in thousands) As of June 30, 2022 2022 $ 83,785 2023 169,442 2024 104,386 2025 40,557 2026 21,644 Thereafter 67,178 Total $ 486,992 Lessee We lease land under non-cancelable operating leases at 14 Properties expiring at various dates between August 31, 2022 and 2054. For additional information regarding the Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza ground leases that expire August 31, 2022, see Part 1. Item 1. Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies. The majority of the leases have terms requiring fixed payments plus additional rents based on a percentage of gross revenues at those Properties. We also have other operating leases, primarily office space, expiring at various dates through 2032. For the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease payments were $ 2.9 million and $ 2.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease payments were $ 5.5 million and $ 5.1 million, respectively. 10 Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.

The weighted average remaining lease term for our operating leases was nine years and the weighted average incremental borrowing rate was 3.8 % at June 30, 2022. ROU assets and lease liabilities from our operating leases, included within Other assets, net and Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, were $ 30.3 million and $ 30.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021.

Prior to the new program, the aggregate offering price was up to $ 200.0 million. The following table presents the shares that were issued under our prior ATM equity offering program during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

There was no ATM equity activity during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Exchanges Subject to certain limitations, OP Unit holders can request an exchange of any or all of their OP Units for shares of Common Stock at any time. Upon receipt of such a request, we may, in lieu of issuing shares of Common Stock, cause the Operating Partnership to pay cash. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, 8,640 and 1,386,716 OP Units, respectively, were exchanged for an equal number of shares of Common Stock.

Approximately $ 0.8 million and $ 1.5 million of the distributions made to us exceeded our basis in our unconsolidated joint ventures for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and as such, were recorded as income from unconsolidated joint ventures. Note 8 – Borrowing Arrangements Mortgage Notes Payable Our mortgage notes payable is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our mortgage notes payable: As of June 30, 2022 As of December 31, 2021 (amounts in thousands) Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Mortgage notes payable, excluding deferred financing costs $ 2,329,554 $ 2,750,224 $ 2,743,527 $ 2,654,086 The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness, including the impact of premium/discount amortization and loan cost amortization on mortgage indebtedness, as of June 30, 2022, was approximately 3.7 % per annum. The debt bears interest at stated rates ranging from 2.4 % to 8.9 % per annum and matures on various dates ranging from 2023 to 2041. The debt encumbered a total of 114 and 117 of our Properties as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and the gross carrying value of such Properties was approximately $ 2,834.0 million and $ 2,817.5 million, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repaid $ 14.2 million of principal on two mortgage loans that were due to mature in 2022, incurring $ 0.5 million of prepayment penalties. These mortgage loans had a weighted average interest rate of 5.25 % per annum and were secured by three RV communities. 13 Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Note 8 - Borrowing Arrangements (continued) During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we entered into a $ 200.0 million secured refinancing transaction. The loan is secured by one MH community, has a fixed interest rate of 3.36 % per annum and has a maturity date of May 1, 2034. The net proceeds from the transaction were used to repay all debt scheduled to mature in 2022 and to repay amounts outstanding on the Line of Credit (“LOC”). Unsecured Debt During the six months ended June 30, 2022 we entered into a $ 200.0 million senior unsecured term loan agreement. The maturity date is January 21, 2027, with an interest rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus approximately 1.30 % to 1.80 %, depending on leverage levels. The LOC had a balance of $ 47.8 million and $ 349.0 million outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, our LOC had a remaining borrowing capacity of $ 452.2 million. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants in all our borrowing arrangements. Note 9 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk We record all derivatives at fair value. Our objective in utilizing interest rate derivatives is to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. We have a three-year LIBOR Swap Agreement (the “Swap”) allowing us to trade the variable interest rate associated with our variable rate debt for a fixed interest rate. The Swap has a notional amount of $ 300.0 million of outstanding principal with a fixed interest rate of 0.39 % per annum and matures on March 25, 2024. Based on the leverage as of June 30, 2022, our spread over LIBOR was 1.40 % resulting in an estimated all-in interest rate of 1.79 % per annum. Our derivative financial instrument was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our derivative financial instrument: As of June 30, As of December 31, (amounts in thousands) Balance Sheet Location 2022 2021 Interest Rate Swap Other assets, net $ 16,240 $ 3,524 The following table presents the effect of our derivative financial instrument on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income: Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationship Amount of (gain)/loss recognized in OCI on derivative for the six months ended June 30, Location of (gain)/ loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into income Amount of (gain)/loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into income for the six months ended June 30, (amounts in thousands) 2022 2021 (amounts in thousands) 2022 2021 Interest Rate Swap $ ( 12,719 ) $ ( 2 ) Interest Expense $ ( 2 ) $ 237 During the next twelve months, we estimate that $ 8.1 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense. This estimate may be subject to change as the underlying LIBOR changes. We determined that no adjustment was necessary for non-performance risk on our derivative obligation. As of June 30, 2022, we had not posted any collateral related to the Swap. 14 Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Note 10 – Equity Incentive Awards Our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 11, 2014 and approved by our stockholders on May 13, 2014. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, 79,078 shares of restricted stock were awarded to certain members of our management team. Of these shares, 50 % are time-based awards, vesting in equal installments over a three-year period on January 27, 2023, January 26, 2024 and January 31, 2025, respectively, and have a grant date fair value of $ 3.0 million. The remaining 50 % are performance-based awards vesting in equal installments on January 27, 2023, January 26, 2024 and January 31, 2025, respectively, upon meeting performance conditions as established by the Compensation Committee in the year of the vesting period. They are valued using the closing price at the grant date when all the key terms and conditions are known to all parties. The 13,178 shares of restricted stock subject to 2022 performance goals have a grant date fair value of $ 1.0 million. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022 we awarded to certain members of our Board of Directors 51,522 shares of restricted stock at a fair value of approximately $ 4.1 million and options to purchase 7,210 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $ 79.72 . These are time-based awards subject to various vesting dates between October 26, 2022 and April 26, 2025. Stock based compensation expense, reported in General and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, was $ 2.7 million and $ 2.8 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 5.3 million and $ 5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies We are involved in various legal and regulatory proceedings (“Proceedings”) arising in the ordinary course of business. The Proceedings include, but are not limited to, legal claims made by employees, vendors and customers, and notices, consent decrees, information requests, additional permit requirements and other similar enforcement actions by governmental agencies relating to our utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater treatment plants and other waste treatment facilities and electrical systems. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, our operations are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. Management believes these Proceedings taken together do not represent a material liability. In addition, to the extent any such Proceedings or audits relate to newly acquired Properties, we consider any potential indemnification obligations of sellers in our favor. The Operating Partnership operates and manages Westwinds, a 720 site mobilehome community, and Nicholson Plaza, an adjacent shopping center, both located in San Jose, California pursuant to ground leases that expire on August 31, 2022 and do not contain extension options. The master lessor of these ground leases, The Nicholson Family Partnership (the “Nicholsons”), has expressed a desire to redevelop Westwinds, and in a written communication, they claimed that we were obligated to deliver the property free and clear of any and all subtenancies upon the expiration of the ground leases on August 31, 2022. In connection with any redevelopment, the City of San Jose’s conversion ordinance requires, among other things, that the landowner provide relocation, rental and purchase assistance to the impacted residents. We believe the Nicholsons’ demand is unlawful, and on December 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership, together with certain interested parties, filed a complaint in California Superior Court for Santa Clara County, seeking declaratory relief pursuant to which it requested that the Court determine, among other things, that the Operating Partnership has no obligation to deliver the property free and clear of the mobilehome residents upon the expiration of the ground leases. The Operating Partnership and the interested parties filed an amended complaint on January 29, 2020. The Nicholsons filed a demand for arbitration on January 28, 2020, which they subsequently amended, pursuant to which they request (i) a declaration that the Operating Partnership, as the “owner and manager” of Westwinds, is “required by the Ground Leases, and State and local law to deliver the Property free of any encumbrances or third-party claims at the expiration of the lease terms,” (ii) that the Operating Partnership anticipatorily breached the ground leases by publicly repudiating any such obligation and (iii) that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding. On February 3, 2020, the Nicholsons filed a motion in California Superior Court to compel arbitration and to stay the Superior Court litigation, which motion was heard on June 25, 2020. On July 29, 2020, the Superior Court issued a final order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. The Nicholsons filed a notice of appeal on August 7, 2020. On February 4, 2022, the California Court of Appeal affirmed the Superior Court’s order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel 15 Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies (continued) arbitration. On February 22, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for rehearing, which the Court of Appeal denied on March 2, 2022. On March 16, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court, which the California Supreme Court denied on April 20, 2022. On May 18, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a cross complaint alleging that the Operating Partnership is obligated to deliver Westwinds free and clear of encumbrances and in good condition and repair. The cross complaint asserts that it is no longer feasible for the Operating Partnership to cure its alleged breaches given that the ground leases terminate on August 31, 2022. The Operating Partnership has filed a demurrer seeking dismissal of the cross complaint, and the Nicholsons also filed a demurrer to our complaint. On July 19, 2022, the Nicholsons sent two notices of default to the Operating Partnership, one related to Westwinds and the other related to Nicholson Plaza, the adjacent shopping center. The notices generally assert that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. The Operating Partnership is evaluating the notices but expects to dispute the contention that it has not maintained Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza in compliance with the terms of the applicable ground leases. The arbitration which was previously stayed pursuant to an agreement between the Operating Partnership and the Nicholsons is now proceeding with respect to the Nicholsons’ indemnification claim that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding and a claim by the Operating Partnership for recovery of fees incurred in connection with the Nicholsons’ failed motion to compel arbitration. We intend to continue to vigorously defend our interests in this matter. As of June 30, 2022, we have not made an accrual, as we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or reasonably estimate any possible loss. Note 12 - Reportable Segments We have identified two reportable segments: (i) Property Operations and (ii) Home Sales and Rentals Operations. The Property Operations segment owns and operates land lease Properties and the Home Sales and Rentals Operations segment purchases, sells and leases homes at the Properties. The distribution of the Properties throughout the United States reflects our belief that geographic diversification helps insulate the portfolio from regional economic influences. All revenues were from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of our total revenues during the quarters and six months ended ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. The following tables summarize our segment financial information for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021: Quarter Ended June 30, 2022 (amounts in thousands) Property Operations Home Sales and Rentals Operations Consolidated Operations revenues $ 320,888 $ 40,078 $ 360,966 Operations expenses ( 171,960 ) ( 34,635 ) ( 206,595 ) Income from segment operations 148,928 5,443 154,371 Interest income 1,381 341 1,722 Depreciation and amortization ( 48,297 ) ( 2,499 ) ( 50,796 ) Income from operations $ 102,012 $ 3,285 $ 105,297 Reconciliation to consolidated net income: Corporate interest income — Income from other investments, net 2,617 General and administrative ( 11,695 ) Other expenses ( 4,189 ) Interest and related amortization ( 28,053 ) Equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures 1,253 Early debt retirement ( 640 ) Consolidated net income $ 64,590 Total assets $ 5,150,884 $ 248,704 $ 5,399,588 Capital improvements $ 64,690 $ 32,698 $ 97,388 16 Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.
