  <p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">GERMANTOWN, Tenn., September 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., (&#34;MAA&#34;) (NYSE: MAA) today announced the appointment of Sheila K. McGrath to the Board of Directors.  The appointment of Ms. McGrath, along with the previous election of John Case and Tamara Fischer at the May 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, was executed under the Board of Director&#x2019;s long-term succession plan to pre-emptively address three planned director retirements in 2025, in line with our director refreshment endeavors.  While the mid-term appointment will temporarily increase the size of the board to thirteen, the Board of Directors believes allowing for overlap between outgoing and incoming directors provides a more stable and seamless transition. The Board of Directors currently plans to allow the board to reduce in size following the three planned retirements in 2025. Ms. McGrath was also appointed to the Compensation Committee and Real Estate Investment Committee and will serve as an independent director until the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.</font></p>

Eric Bolton, Jr., Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, said &#x201c;We are delighted to welcome Sheila to our board of directors.  She brings extensive knowledge and expertise surrounding the REIT sector and is a strong addition to our board.  Her strong financial skills and real estate experience, coupled with three decades of hands-on involvement in the REIT industry, will further support the continuity of MAA&#x2019;s ability to deliver superior long-term value growth and performance for all of our company constituents.&#x201d;</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">  </font></p>
