Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents share options scheduled to vest in approximately three equal installments on February 15, 2024, February 15, 2025 and February 15, 2026.

2. On February 15, 2023, the reporting person received a grant of Series 2023B restricted limited partnership interests ("RUs") in ERP Operating Limited Partnership (the "OP"), the operating partnership of Equity Residential (the "Company"), in lieu of restricted shares of the Company as part of the Company's annual grant of long-term compensation. RUs are a class of partnership interest that automatically convert into an equal number of limited partnership interests of the OP ("OP Units") when the capital account related to the RUs reaches a specified target for federal income tax purposes (provided such target is reached within ten years of issuance). Subject to the vesting requirements of the grant and certain other restrictions, OP Units are exchangeable by the holder for common shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis or the cash value of such shares, at the Company's option. The RUs reflected in this report also include any OP Units into which such RUs automatically convert.

3. The Restricted Units are scheduled to vest on February 15, 2026.
