As used herein, the terms "we," "us," and "our" refer to Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and, as required by context, MHC Operating Limited Partnership and other consolidated subsidiaries.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are as defined in the Prospectus.  The purpose of this Supplement is to disclose amendments to our Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (the "Plan").  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Pursuant to authority provided in the Plan, our Board of Directors has taken action to reduce the size of the plan from 2,000,000 common shares to 100,000 common shares.  To date 32,023 common shares have been issued under the Plan.  Accordingly, 67,977 common shares remain available for issuance under the Plan.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Additionally, pursuant to authority provided in the Plan, our Board of Directors has taken action to suspend the optional cash investments option under the Plan.  Effective immediately, Plan participants will no longer be permitted to make optional cash investments to buy additional common shares.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Additionally, under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act passed by the United States Congress in 2008, Plan participants must reinvest at least 10% of their dividend distribution for each dividend period.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The Full and Partial Distribution Reinvestment options under the Plan will otherwise continue in effect as originally established.  If you currently participate in the Plan and reinvest cash dividends and wish to continue to do so, no action is required by you.  Cash dividends will continue to be reinvested according to your previous instructions.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">American Stock Transfer &amp; Trust Company LLC, our transfer agent (the "Administrator"), administers the Plan.

Customer service representatives are available Monday through Friday, between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 8:00 P.M.
