(the "Issuer"), designated as LTIP Units ("LTIP Units"), was originally granted without cash consideration to the reporting person on February 23, 2023. LTIP Units are intended to qualify as profits interests for US federal income tax purposes and, once both (1) vested and (2) possessing a per unit capital account balance equal to a Class A Common Unit of Welltower OP (an "OP Unit"), are convertible into OP Units, which OP Units may be exchanged by the reporting person for shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Common Shares") of the Issuer or the equivalent cash value of Common Shares, as determined by the Issuer. The reported transaction was a vesting of 193,535 LTIP Units on February 13, 2026, which were automatically converted into the same number of OP Units. No amount was payable in connection with the vesting of the LTIP Units or the Other Stock Units or the conversion of the LTIP Units into OP Units. These LTIP Units were originally granted without cash consideration to the reporting person on January 17, 2022 in the form of performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") of the Issuer. On January 3, 2023, at the election of the reporting person, the PSUs were converted into LTIP Units. The reported transaction was a vesting of 276,735 LTIP Units on February 13, 2026, which were automatically converted into the same number of OP Units. No amount was payable in connection with the vesting of the LTIP Units or the Other Stock Units or the conversion of the LTIP Units into OP Units.

The awards of Other Stock Units provide the reporting person with the ability to acquire Common Shares under the 2022 Plan only through the exchange of OP Units for those shares and in no other manner. Upon the exchange of OP Units for Common Shares, the reporting person will relinquish all rights to the exchanged OP Units. Any Other Stock Units that may be remaining after all OP Units have been exchanged will be immediately canceled for no consideration.
