  1. On March 5, 2024, the reporting person exchanged an option to purchase 5,163 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Shares"), of Public Storage (the "Company") for 5,163 limited partnership units in Public Storage OP, L.P. designated as AO LTIP Units ("AO LTIP Units"). AO LTIP Units are similar to "net exercise" stock option awards and are convertible, once vested, into a number of vested limited partnership units of Public Storage OP, L.P. designated as LTIP Units ("LTIP Units"), determined by the quotient of (i) the excess of the value of a Common Share as of the date of the conversion over $250.29, divided by (ii) the value of a Common Share as of the date of conversion. Vested LTIP Units into which AO LTIP Units have been converted are further convertible, [footnote continued] [Continued from footnote] conditioned upon minimum allocations to the capital accounts of the LTIP Units for U.S. federal income tax purposes, into an equal number of limited partnership units in Public Storage OP, L.P. ("OP Units"). The resulting OP Units are redeemable by the holder for one Common Share per OP Unit or the cash value of a Common Share, at the Company's option. Common Shares are issued upon the redemption of OP Units on a one for one basis. OP Units have no expiration date.

LTIP Units financial
"Vested LTIP Units into which AO LTIP Units have been converted are further convertible"
LTIP units are awards given to executives and employees as part of a long-term incentive plan; they act like deferred bonuses that convert into company shares or cash only if the business meets set performance or time requirements. Investors care because LTIP units tie management pay to future results, can increase the number of outstanding shares (dilution) when they vest, and create ongoing compensation expense that can affect earnings and shareholder value.
AO LTIP Units financial
"for 5,163 limited partnership units in Public Storage OP, L.P. designated as AO LTIP Units"
OP Units financial
"into an equal number of limited partnership units in Public Storage OP, L.P. ("OP Units")"
OP units are ownership stakes in an operating partnership that sits beneath a public parent company, commonly used by real estate and energy firms to hold assets and distributions. Think of them like special shares in a subsidiary: they give economic rights to profits and cash payouts but are structured differently from the parent’s common stock, so investors watch OP unit issuance because it can change the effective ownership, future distributions, and potential dilution of the parent company’s equity.
