Stockholder Return Performance Presentation

The graph and table below compare the yearly percentage change and the cumulative total stockholder return on our shares of common stock against the cumulative total return of the S&P Composite-500 Stock Index and the FTSE NAREIT Equity Index. The data are based on the closing prices as of December 31 for each of the five years presented. 2020 equals $100 and dividends are assumed to be reinvested.

Except to the extent that we specifically incorporate this information by reference, the foregoing Stockholder Return Performance Presentation shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this Annual Report on Form 10-K into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we acquired shares of our common stock held by employees who tendered shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of previously issued restricted stock awards. Specifically, the number of shares of common stock acquired from employees and the average prices paid per share for each month in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025 are as shown in the table below:

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we sold 1,286,848 shares of common stock in private placements in connection with acquisitions of certain properties and other transactions and arrangements, in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Under the terms of various partnership agreements of certain of our affiliated limited partnerships, the interest of limited partners may be redeemed, subject to certain conditions, for cash or common shares, at our option. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we redeemed 1,033,852 OP units for common shares.

On November 7, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program for up to $3,000,000,000 of common stock (the “Stock Repurchase Program”). Under the Stock Repurchase Program, we are not required to purchase shares but may choose to do so in the open market or through privately-negotiated transactions, through block trades, by effecting a tender offer, by way of an accelerated share repurchase program, through the purchase of call options or the sale of put options, or otherwise, or by any combination of the foregoing. We expect to finance any share repurchases using available cash and may use proceeds from borrowings or debt offerings. The Stock Repurchase Program has no expiration date and does not obligate us to repurchase any specific number of shares. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock through the Stock Repurchase Program during the three months ended December 31, 2025.
