AVALONBAY COMMUNITIES INC 4

Director Nnenna Lynch had 7,052.0462 AvalonBay Communities common shares (including deferred stock units) automatically disposed of and converted into Equity Residential/Vivmark Residential shares in connection with the August 17, 2026 merger.

On August 17, 2026, reporting person Nnenna Lynch disposed of 7,052.0462 shares of AvalonBay Communities, Inc. common stock in a transaction coded “D” that reflects the automatic conversion of her deferred stock units into Equity Residential (renamed Vivmark Residential) common shares pursuant to the previously agreed merger of equals between AvalonBay and Equity Residential. Using the August 14, 2026 closing price of $184.06 per AVB share as a proxy, the AVB equity relinquished in the conversion was worth approximately $1.3 million, and at the effective time each AVB deferred stock unit converted into 2.793 EQR common shares. Following this merger-driven conversion, the Form 4 indicates that Lynch reported zero direct AVB common shares, as her economic interest transitioned from AvalonBay into EQR/Vivmark shares and related deferred equity, making this a structural, non‑discretionary disposition rather than an open‑market trade.
