Key Details

• Transaction date and type: 2026-06-18 — Award/Grant (code A) of 3,276 restricted shares at $0.00/share.
• Vesting: The restricted shares vest on June 18, 2027 (see F1).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided excerpt; filing notes that direct totals include restricted shares scheduled to vest (F2) and that some shares are held by a trustee of the SERP for the reporting person (F3).
• Filing date / timeliness: Form 4 filed 2026-06-23 reporting the 6/18/2026 grant — appears to be filed late (Form 4s are generally due within two business days).
• No sale or purchase occurred — this is a compensatory equity grant, not a market trade.

Footnotes from the filing:

• F1: Restricted shares granted for prospective service from the 2026 Annual Meeting; vest 6/18/2027.
• F2: Direct total includes restricted shares of Equity Residential scheduled to vest in the future.
• F3: Shares owned by Principal Trust Company, as Trustee of the Equity Residential Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP), for the benefit of the reporting person.

Context Director restricted stock grants are common as part of board compensation and align director interests with shareholders over the vesting period. Because this was an award (not a purchase or sale) and vests in the future, it should be viewed as routine compensation rather than a direct market sentiment signal. The late filing may be a procedural issue; it does not change the nature of the grant but is notable for disclosure timeliness.
